I needed to start using their gym here. I’d been slacking off. Did sex like that count as a full workout? If it didn’t, it should.
“Mm, there’s a naked Omega in my bed.” Brooks pulled me backward beneath the blankets. “I like it.”
My eyelids were still heavy, but I rolled over into him, tucking my head beneath his chin. His scent was lighter and sweeter than Bastian’s, but I saw the similarities. Smoky sweetness that made his vanilla darker and richer.
He sighed in contentment and held me closer.
“I need to take some vacation time to get used to all of you.”
“Not a terrible idea.”
I sighed and rolled onto my back, forcing my eyes open to the ceiling. “Unfortunately, I can’t do that right now. There’s too much on my desk between overdue articles, the one about Element, and the whole flash drive thing. That’s why I was at Element, by the way. I’m writing a feature on it.”
“I can’t wait to read it. You never mentioned what’s on the flash drive.”
“That’s because I don’t know yet. I still need Aiden to hack it. Guess I’ll be asking him about that tonight.” I swallowed. “No idea how it can feel strange and right at the same time, but it does.”
“I get that feelingexactly.”
I sighed, melting into the bed. “I know we’re not in a scene, but I might need you to tell me to get out of bed.”
“Seems counterproductive to what I want,” he said.
“I mean, yeah, but I do have to go to work.”
Brooks rolled out of bed and came to my side before he pulled my blankets away. Given my position last night, I hadn’t really had the chance to admire him.
My Alpha was fit as hell. The kind of body you had to work for, but not the kind you got from making working out your entire personality. He was half hard because it was first thing in the morning, and holy shit, if I’d seen how thick he was before he started fucking me, I might have been nervous.
I mean, I’d seen him before when we were all in the shower, but I was a little occupied.
The intricate shapes and letters that curled around his left side were much clearer now. Compared to Bastian’s tattoos, his felt more structured and intentional. “I like your tattoos.”
He grabbed an ankle and pulled me to the edge of the bed, playfully. “I like them too. Maybe we’ll get you some too one day.” Once I was on my feet, still naked, he curled a hand behind my neck. Ifelthis presence change. The air between us charged with our exchange of power. “Since you asked me to order you around, go do what you need to do. Get ready for the day. Then straight to breakfast.”
“Almost straight to breakfast,” Theo said. He was standing in the doorway, staring at my naked body without hiding it. “Trinity has two training tasks she needs to complete.”
My mouth dropped open. “You got it already?”
“Check your room and find out.”
I went, hearing Brooks questioning Theo about what I was meant to do behind me.
There was a new freestanding mirror in my bedroom, and suctioned to the surface was one of the biggest dildos I’d ever seen. Complete with a fake set of balls at the end. A swirling blend of candy-like colors took it out of the realm of reality. But still. That was huge. I might have to turn into the kind of snake that unhinged its jaw to fit all of it in my mouth.
“Like it?”
“It’s huge.”
“Well, thank you. That is the point.”
“I don’t know if I can fit that.”
In the mirror, I saw him approach. “You’ll try with this one. If you can’t, I’ll find something else. But I want you to try it for a while.”
“What do you want me to do?”
Hands lightly on my shoulders. “First position.”
