And everything that's funny I wish I could tell to him And sometimes at a low point I even wish for a tragedy 'Cause I know he'd come over And take real good care of me It's weird, he's not here I'm a zombie in my body I'm a train off of the track I feel dirty, I feel rotten And the colors are all flat I'm a sad shell of a woman And I've got maggots for brains But that's just the thing that happens When my baby goes away

After her boyfriend misses her birthday party, Hazel finds herself wondering if her love for superstar Adonis can make up for all the sacrifices she’s had to make in order to keep him. Nearing 30 without the marriage or kids she desperately wants to have, his insistence on ‘not ruining a good thing’ sends her back down memory lane. In a moment of frustration, she uses her birthday wish to ask for a do-over on her life for a chance at true happiness.
What she didn’t expect was to wake up in the arms of an ex-boyfriend.

For as long as Embry had known Hunter, he had heard stories about this ‘Scout’ figure and her revered status in his life. When Hunter and Nadia had excitedly announced that Scout would be moving to town, Embry was genuinely happy for them both. Strong familial and community ties seemed to be foreign in this city. As they spent the rest of the hangout discussing their plans to fully integrate her into the group, it was a nice reminder of what life was like at home, where everyone was treated like a relative. If Scout was inevitably going to become a major part of their life, he had no issue welcoming her with open arms.

Despite being disappointed in himself for eating them, Embry finished all 23 almonds before the guilt could really set in. He knew the thought would undoubtedly haunt him for the rest of his night but still underlined the note in his log before neatly tucking everything back in his lunchbox.

After a freak accident on a mission separates Embry's Original and 'human' sides, he struggles with having to face the parts of himself he desperately wants to hide. Scout works to encourage him to love all parts of himself the way she does, by any means necessary...
There’s been a slight complication. Please get here as soon as you can.
A complication. That was all anyone bothered to tell Scout when she was summoned down to the Union Hall that evening. While she was thankful to have received a message at all after days of silence, a little more information couldn’t have been too much trouble for Hazel to add.
Except, upon arriving there and being filled in on the details, even Scout was at a loss for words.
Scout held her tongue as Embry studied her face. She knew he was expecting her to laugh it off or assure him that she was teasing, but she wasn’t feeling inclined to backtrack. Nobody had forced him to continue with his line of questioning. If he hadn’t wanted the truth, he shouldn’t have pried for it.
“I had a nice time holding you earlier, Scout. It felt familiar.”
“It’s something we do a lot.”
“How terrible.”
“That is not what I’m saying,” she sighed, walking back towards the living room, “Just because you’re not as.. I don’t know.. outwardly freaky as I am doesn’t mean I’m unhappy.”
“I guess I’m just out of Starman secrets to share with you.”
With her interest piqued again, she turned back to look at him through her lashes.
“I’m sure I can get more out of you. You know how demanding I can be. I’d hate to have to punish you.”
“A dominant version of you? Now that’s definitely a fantasy.”
“Fine, I take it all back. I am extremely dissatisfied with you.”
“Hey,” Embry frowned, “There’s no need to get mean when I’m just teasing you.”
“Maybe I’m serious. Maybe I’ve been faking it this whole time and I’m trying to offer you some constructive criticism.”
“You’re not faking.”
“How do you know? I’m a fantastic actress. I’ve been faking happiness my whole life.”
“I’ll tell you what: if you can make your hypothalamus respond like that on command, you can join the Justice Union with the strangest power yet.”
“Great - you’ve looked inside of me,” she huffed, “What happened to privacy? Can’t a woman orgasm in peace anymore?”
“Checking on your organs to make sure I’m not physically hurting you is offensive?”
“Is my brain at risk?”
“It’s multi-use, okay? It’s only weird to you because you can’t see it.”
“It’s weird because it sounds like you’re looking to make sure I’m actually enjoying myself.”
“I don’t need to see your brain light up to know that. I can feel that part,” he explained, smiling sheepishly while avoiding her gaze, “I just like to make sure you’re still with me.”
“Have I ever not been?”
“Sometimes you’re making your way back down.”
That phrase triggered the memory of having to calm him down after experiencing her in subspace the first time. Her inability to form coherent sentences had him worried he’d done something to damage her head somehow. Despite being flustered to admit how pleasurable submission was to her, she thought he had understood well enough to recognize there was no need to scan her brain for any signs of a concussion.
Or maybe he just likes watching you like that…
Flopping onto the couch face first to scream in the pillow felt too dramatic. Having him gone for so long had been difficult. Those overt passes made by Prime hadn’t left her mind yet either. Memories swirled around with their current conversation topic and had her feeling more than a little riled up. If he wasn’t ready to start making the first move yet, she was well versed in baiting.
Scout perched up on the arm of the couch, causing her nightgown to slide up further to expose more of her thighs.
“I like that you came home with me. I like that you braided my hair after my shower and that you asked to cuddle with me instead of sulking alone on the roof. Can’t I also wish for a little more physical affection?”
Alpha was the more refined of the two by far, but he was still a part of Embry. When her knees parted ever so slightly as she spoke, he didn’t look away from her again.
“You’re allowed. But I can’t read your mind; I can only look at it.”
“I know. I’d never ask you too, but really? A peck? My Embry would never leave me so deprived. You should know that.”
“I am your Embry!” he insisted, making his way towards the couch to hold her face, “Don’t take me being in my own head as a slight against you.”
“I’m sorry. I know I’m blaming you for something out of your control,” she bemoaned, pressing her cheek into his touch.
“What do you mean?”
“I’m demanding something you can’t give me right now. I’m being unfair. I know those desires all went to Prime but.. I just.. I still have those feelings for you.”
And the Oscar goes to… !
Embry processed her comment for a moment before frowning.
“That’s not true.”
“I know I shouldn’t be overwhelmed like this but a few days without you feels like forever. I miss you. I miss the way you feel on me.. inside of me.. I feel like… like I need you right now.”
A small voice in her head interrupted to suggest this would come back to haunt her and she forced the thought out. She wasn’t lying about her feelings and she was certain he could hear how her heartbeat had changed. Stoking the rivalry between the two of them was hardly a crime. Would he really be that upset by a slight exaggeration if he was the one who got to have her?
In one swift motion, Scout was off the couch and in his arms. While instinctively winding her arms and legs around him, Embry's lips found her neck. Her contented sighs turned quickly into whining out just how badly she wanted him. Making her wait any longer was torturous.
“I know,” he purred, his words tickling at her skin, “But I always want to hear you beg.”
A gentle pull at her nightgown sent the tattered remains to the carpet. Her breath hitched as a shiver wracked through her naked body. Despite his pushback and joking, he had been listening to her after all. Her reward for playing by his rules was getting what she wanted. But just how forceful was he willing to be? The idea of what was to come was driving her crazy.
“I want you to fuck me, right here… like you had to have me,” she breathed.
How many times had that idea crossed her mind? Certainly any time he’d come in from the balcony while she was on the couch. The suit just did something to her.
Don’t bother whisking me off to bed, my love - fuck me right here on the living room floor. Bend me over every surface. Let’s break something in here like you broke my headboard when you nailed me the first time.
When he kissed her, she knew she had won. The usual passion had been replaced by an intense fervor. Suddenly feeling her back on the ground, her hands were quick to peel his shirt off and toss it aside. While her imagination raced with the idea of climbing on top of him, his body kept her pressed beneath him. She tugged at his bottom lip while breaking the kiss and grinned at hearing a low growl in response.
“I’m all yours. You can do whatever you want to me,” Scout whispered, slowly rocking her hips, “Use me.”
Be careful.
That voice started to warn her again that she was flying too close to the sun. Starman could survive the heat, but could she? If she pushed too far, would she end up glowing the same way or burned beyond recognition?
She arched her back at the feeling of his mouth on her breast. He would suck and tease at her nipples this way every time, knowing she would recognize the pattern that left her shaking when it was repeated over and over between her legs. It was just another way of getting her worked up. The maddening routine always left her gasping and bucking her hips, willing his attention lower.
But then they were both startled by the sound of the balcony door opening. With a yelp, she covered her bare chest with her arms. It had been years since someone had walked in on her and she had gotten comfortable with the privacy.
Too comfortable, apparently.
“What the.. what are you doing here?!”
“What do you mean? What do you think I’m doing here?”
She peeked out over Embry’s shoulder to see Prime shutting the door behind him. As horrified as she was to have been interrupted, her eyes gave him a once… twice… three times over.
Damn that stupid suit.
“You were supposed to stay at the Union Hall.”
“But then things got more enticing here,” Prime explained, seemingly annoyed at the questioning.
In her excitement, she hadn’t considered that everything she had told and done to Embry Alpha was heard and felt by Embry Prime. Even though she hadn’t been talking to him directly, she had unintentionally begged him to fuck her, too. As far as miscommunications went, this was certainly up there on her list of social blunders.
“Get out of here! This doesn’t involve you.”
“Don’t be like that.”
Despite Alpha’s demands, Prime kicked off his boots and unlatched his cape as though he had just casually returned from battle.
“Go ahead and make yourself at home, then,” Alpha huffed, grabbing his shirt and handing it to Scout. She pulled it on quickly and stayed silent. Watching the two of them was far too entertaining to interrupt.
“I know my way around everything here. I have just as much of a right to come inside as you do. You didn’t have to stop on my account.”
“Oh, you just wanted to sit and watch? Maybe jerk off in the corner?”
“Of course not,” Prime laughed, tossing the top half of the suit aside, “I’ve got next round.”
“Excuse me?” Both Scout and Alpha responded immediately.
Scout felt her cheeks redden at the implication. The idea of being shared had never appealed to her before. Something like that seemed too intimate for a casual hook up. It required a level of trust and mutual attraction she had never found in a partner before. With two men off the street, it’d be demeaning and objectifying. She’d leave sore and dissatisfied while they’d high five about ‘spit roasting’ her like a pig. With two women, she’d enjoy herself but spend more time than she cared to admit feeling horribly insecure about her body and sexual prowess.
But this would be something entirely different, wouldn’t it? Threesome couldn’t quite cover it. Two-point-five some, a once in a lifetime opportunity. Two halves of one whole. One Embry was amazing. A generous and sweet lover. Someone who respected her and took pleasure in pleasuring her. A man who worshiped her body in any state she delivered it to him. Two of them could be the closest thing to nirvana she would ever reach, especially if the one was willing to prove they could safely have rougher sex. The idea of having two of them overpowering her, making her come, taking her over and over again… It brought back the memories of a particular fantasy that still got her off now.
Could it be a reality: one Embry, one Starman, one lucky Scout with the whole weekend to recover?
“When have you ever been done after one round?” Prime asked, staring her down with a mischievous grin. “I still remember when you said my ability to come and keep going made me the only man who could keep up with you.”
Don’t you bring that up now!
“You should be ashamed for even showing up here.”
“And you should be ashamed for making her cover up that gorgeous rack. We’ve got a shared goal now, so why don’t you want to work together?”
I should be offended. Why do I want you to show you every part of me?
“My girlfriend-“
“Our girlfriend.”
“Our girlfriend is a person, not a group project. Your only ‘goal’ tonight was to stay with Adonis and not kill him until you ceased to exist.”
“You were asking a lot there. He wouldn’t stop talking, so I told him I had to leave to go merge with you.”
“But he knows that’s not how this works.”
“And he said that, so I told him the truth,” Prime shrugged, “And now I’m here with his best wishes ‘from man to man’. End of story.”
“Oh, come on! He is… he is in so much trouble when I get back there.”
“See, this is why everyone likes me better.”
“Everybody hates you.”
“Not everyone. Some people love us both.”
Of course you heard that. Damn you!
Feeling nervous, Scout pressed herself into Alpha’s back. He turned to face her and apologized for the interruption.
“I’m so sorry. Just ignore him.”
“Don’t fight,” she chided, kissing his cheek, “I do love you both. Prime is still a part of my Embry.”
“A small part. A minuscule, teeny tiny part that has been exaggerated by an unknown serum.”
“We’re the same size in every way,” Prime sighed, shaking his head. “You know, if you had picked me to take home, tonight would have been more rewarding for you.”
Scout pushed down on Alpha’s shoulder as he started to stand and took to her feet instead.
“You left out some details about that little arrangement. There’s a big difference between starting a family with the man I love and only being used to pop out his heirs.”
“You know I’d never hurt you. It’d be a comfortable arrangement,” he said, waving off her concern, “Just because the all powerful spirit inside me wants me to breed you doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t want to be with you all the time.”
“You mean have sex with me all the time.”
“Be nice, sunbeam. You know how much I enjoy your company,” Her heart fluttered at having him scold her. It didn’t go unnoticed as he added, “And you clearly enjoy mine.”
“Well, that doesn’t really matter, does it? We’re both going to expire soon,” Alpha sighed, stepping to Scout’s side.
She turned to the stove clock in a hurry. 7:13. If Hazel was right about the time the explosion happened, they had just over an hour left. The thought of that made her stomach drop. While neither of them were her Embry alone, she had grown rather attached to the two.
“She’s human,” Prime laughed, “We have plenty of time.”
As Alpha tried to close the distance between them, Scout forced her way in the middle.
“Let’s all just… settle down, okay? We have to live with each other for at least a little longer and this building can’t withstand an Original brawl.”
When she turned to get a nod of acceptance from each of them, the voice came back to ask her to look closely and get out of the apartment. That gut feeling was one she had been taught and trained to listen to growing up. Unnerved by the comment, she studied them both silently. Neither protested the attention or pried into what she was doing. Though they both appeared normal to her when they were apart, seeing them together helped highlight something off about both of them. She trusted the testing that had confirmed them both to be Embry. With their faces close by, she could pick out features from each of them that were right and others that were just slightly different. Once they merged, they’d put her beloved back together, but they were setting off her nervous system in the meantime. It finally clicked why her brain had registered Prime’s resemblance specifically as uncanny earlier. Her body could sense neither of them were right. Survival instinct was trying to tell her that the human-presenting figures in front of her were not what they seemed and that she needed to flee.
Unfortunately, that particular wire had also gotten crossed a while ago in favor of making her more intrigued in a variety of ways. Why did the idea of being their prey make her want to clench her thighs together?
“You miss the tattoos, don’t you?” Prime smiled as she looked back his way.
“Don’t instigate. I already told you I love you both.”
“How much?” Alpha asked, sounding more unsure of himself than angry.
“As much as I loved you yesterday. As much as I’ll love you tomorrow.”
“He’s feeling guilty again,” Prime interrupted, “He’s not sure how to handle wanting to share you with me.”
“Is that true?” She asked, not giving Alpha a chance to discourage Prime into silence.
“It was a passing thought. I want you. I want to finish what we started. But he’s not going to leave.”
“It doesn’t hurt that we feel everything twice, either,” Prime offered, sliding a hand up Scout’s side, “Nobody else can have you, but us getting to enjoy you so many ways, so many times… that’s hard to give up.”
The reaction Alpha had was fascinating. His own hand curled slightly as if to squeeze at her waist when Prime did. His face still showed some of the shame she had become so accustomed to seeing from him.
The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
“It’s not as strong as being the one to do it, but we both feel it.”
Never able to ignore her own curiosity, Scout turned to run a hand down Prime’s chest. His hands immediately slid down to grab at her backside, making her laugh as she was pulled into the embrace.
“Is there any part of me you don’t like?” She asked, batting her lashes playfully, “Or any other secrets you’re keeping from me?”
“I don’t like that we’re still just talking, but he’s always been the better listener… like when you think you’re all alone and let yourself unwind.”
“Really?” Scout gasped. Turning back to Alpha, she grinned, “You’re bad.”
“That was one time and it was an accident. I left as soon as I realized what was happening.”
“To go do what?” Prime sneered, tucking her braid back to lean down and kiss at her neck and shoulder.
“And why didn’t you come play?”
“It was before we were together. We hadn’t even kissed yet so no, I wasn’t going to come play.”.
“We’re together now. We can make up for lost time.”
“We ask him not to be Mister Romantic for one night and now we’re the bad guys.”
She started to feel a little guilty about ganging up on him after seeing the irritation on Alpha’s face.
No, no - we need him worked up.
With Alpha’s attention locked on her, Scout slid Prime’s hand around her thigh. When she dropped his wrist, he continued to trace along her skin before settling between her hips.
“If it was just a passing thought, why haven’t you stopped him?” She asked, stifling a moan as his hand slowly started to move.
Alpha watched the display for longer than she would have expected before managing to breathe again. Embry would never share her with another partner but was clearly interested in watching her respond to his own touch. Seeing his arousal excited her further, and she rocked her hips slowly against Prime’s touch.
“Scout, we’d hurt you… You have nothing to prove. Don’t.. don’t do this for us.”
Prime inhaled deeply and pulled back his hand. With a short laugh, he tasted her on his fingers before looking at Alpha once more.
“Don’t tell me she doesn’t want it.”
Scout’s knees almost buckled beneath her. If Alpha couldn’t be convinced to join, he’d be more than welcome to watch. There was no self control left in her to turn back now. She had to be fucked by Prime, one way or another.
But her itch was for them both and she was unwilling to accept defeat. Slipping back out of his shirt, she stepped forward and wrapped a finger over his waistband. When he didn’t pull away, she slowly started to pull the fabric down.
“You know you’ve thought about more than being on top of me. I saw your eyes light up when I told you I was experienced. You thought it was sexy.. you liked knowing I could take it.”
“Yes,” he sighed, inhaling sharply at the feeling of her hand on him.
Touching him this way had always been off limits. Scout didn’t feel unsafe as he seemed to dissolve into her touch as her thumb moved around his slick tip. She bit her lip in an effort to contain herself.
“I want to show you that I can take all of you.”
Both sides at the same time, please!
“We don’t have to stop. We don’t get tired. If you don’t tell us no, we’ll keep going until you can’t take anymore,” Prime noted, cupping at her breasts from behind.
“Mm, God, don’t tease anymore. I need fucked.”
“Are you sure?” Alpha asked, taking the same sultry tone now. “Two Originals.. You don’t know what you’re asking for.”
The thrill of having them both naked was making her lightheaded. They talked a big game, but Embry hadn’t seen her full potential. Just like he held back from her, she hadn’t been able to give him all of her. Without his self-imposed rules, they could get into trouble.
“I want all of you,” she echoed, biting her lip again as Prime squeezed at her nipples, “Two is nothing.. I’d let every version of you fuck me.”
Did you seriously just say that?
From the silence and Alpha’s raised brow, she was certain she had gotten too wild and killed the mood. While the idea of having more Embrys pass her around was exciting, that may have been an inside only kind of thought. What if they took that as her not being happy with the one she had and loved dearly? It had been meant as a compliment.
Before uttering an awkward segue in hopes of getting them back on board, Prime’s laughter stopped her.
“Oh, I like you.”
~
Taking her off to bed had only been delayed by the pull of them both wanting to press her up against the hallway walls and kiss her. With her eyes closed, there was no discernible way to identify whose mouth was on her. After having witnessed them as polar opposites all day, she was surprised by that fact. Alpha was supposed to be sweet. Prime was supposed to be, well, primal.
Yet here they were, perfectly in sync, working together to bring her over that edge. If she hadn’t been toyed with all day, she would have been embarrassed to have come undone that quickly. But God, how could she have held on any longer? With one nipping at all of those weak spots on her neck with a hand between her legs and the other purring sweet nothings and sucking at her breasts, there was too much stimulation to fight off the inevitable.
Before she could manage to catch her breath, she opened her eyes again to watch them share a knowing look before Prime continued trailing kisses down her body.
“Hey… no secrets,” she breathed, smiling weakly.
Any other thoughts were cut off as Alpha slid behind her, bringing her to an upright position and drawing her hands to the small of her back. Fully distracted by kissing him, she gasped softly as Prime’s hands slipped under her legs to grasp at her hips. It was a familiar move. They both knew she couldn’t get away but feeling him hold her down always excited her. While he normally let her wrap her fingers in his hair, it seemed that Prime didn’t want any distractions.
In just a few minutes, she found mercy wasn’t in the cards for her either. With no wiggle room to buck her hips away for a single moment of reprieve, his mouth and fingers worked at her endlessly. She could feel her body trying to tremble as her muscles grew taut but she couldn’t budge. Pleas for them to let up rattled around her head but all she could manage were moans.
“Look at you. I could watch you forever,” Alpha murmured in her ear, “You’re already gonna come for me again, aren’t you?”
It’s too much! I can’t!
She managed a gasp that only seemed to excite him more. Knowing that he was watching her erotic and anxiety-inducing. With no control over her own body, she could only imagine how insane her expression looked in his eyes.
“Mm, she can’t help herself,” he laughed, squeezing tighter at her whimpering, “She can’t stop coming.”
Oh God, yes!
When she came this time, she heard herself let out a guttural cry. All of that tension releasing at once had been more intense than she could have prepared for. As the aftershock worked through the rest of her, she wished she had been able to contain herself a little more. From the way they were both staring at her heaving chest, it seemed she was alone in that sentiment.
“Tired so soon?” Scout watched Prime lick his lips before smiling up at Alpha, “I see why we hold back on her now.”
“No! I’m not tired,” she protested, finally managing to wiggle free to the other side of the bed as Alpha dropped her hands to her sides.
Tired wasn’t the right word. Her body wanted more but she also knew this was different. The closest comparison she had was the time she had taken an edible and spent a few hours playing with herself. Her whole body felt unnaturally warm. Every caress sent a toe-curling, tingling rush across her skin. What they were doing to her had every part of her riveted and eager to be touched again.
Given the fact she was still alive, she knew they were still holding back to some degree, but this was much harder than Embry had ever been willing to go before. Their hands, their mouths, were rougher on her sensitive skin. They didn’t stop to kiss her for a few minutes or ask if she was hurting. Their touch was persistent, continuing even when her body instinctively tried to get away from the overstimulation. But still, she felt herself throbbing for more, craving to submit to them fully.
Scout smiled to herself as she leaned back on her hands and spread her legs to look towards them over her bent knees. Neither of them made any attempt to pretend to hold eye contact.
“Is foreplay all you know how to do? Do I have to wait ‘til the merge for someone who isn’t afraid to fuck me?”
“Careful, Miss Odair.”
Undeterred by Prime’s words, she crawled forward before arching her back and swaying her hips.
“Or what?”
His hand cupped her cheek. The warmth of his touch caused her to eagerly tilt into the caress. Feeling his thumb beside her lips, she parted them slightly without breaking eye contact. His stare narrowed momentarily at her invitation before brushing over her mouth. After slowly dragging her tongue up the side, she sucked at his finger until he pulled his hand away.
His eyes burned with a desire she hadn’t seen before. This kind of touch was strictly forbidden. Though she had tried repeatedly with promises of getting him off in five, three, two minutes flat, he had never let her indulge him. It was clear now that it hadn’t been from a complete lack of interest.
When he spoke, she couldn’t understand what he had said or what Alpha said in response. Her repeated complaint about their secret keeping was cut off at the feeling of a hand at her hip.
“I promised him the first round.”
Scout gasped at the sudden feeling of Alpha teasing her from behind.
“Just one more and she’s there.”
“Mm, and then the real Scout will come out.”
Her stomach fluttered at the realization that they were deliberately trying to get her to the euphoria of subspace before having their way with her. While holding them both to the standard of real Embry had been fun, the suggestion of the real Scout being that version of her should have upset her. But they were playing with her in just the right way - toeing the line in a way only Embry could.
If the real Scout was an insatiable slut, she was only that way for him.
Looking back, she arched deeper.
“Please. I need it,” she whined.
“You have two minutes,” Alpha explained, nodding forward to Prime, “Earn it.”
Embry had told her before that humans were far more sensitive creatures. Even if she tried to hurt him, he wouldn’t have been pained by her actions. While that was true, she had learned that there were still some places that were very receptive to feeling her touch. Without hesitation, she turned back to Prime and slid him into her mouth. His hand wrapped around her hair before resting at the back of her head. Hearing him groan reminded her that this was her only means of leveling the playing field. They were making the most of sharing her but were limited by her human fragility. Scout could do anything she wanted to Prime and have Alpha feel the sensation.
“Fuck,” Prime cursed. She held his gaze while working him deeper down her throat, again and again.
Human men never lasted long in her mouth. Knowing he had made it past her time limit would have wounded her ego if they hadn’t all been savoring every second of the act. Her fervor rekindled at Alpha sliding his length against her, adding his own desperation to the wetness growing between them. Her humming at the teasing brought panted breaths out of Prime. When he warned her he was close, he pulled back and started to stroke himself to completion - only slowing down when she leaned forward again. Scout kept wide, doe eyes as she slowly dragged her tongue under the tip once more and finished him off with a few soft flicks.
They all remained still for a moment as she caught her breath. It hadn’t occurred to her that this would result in another reminder of the fact she willingly climbed into bed with someone inhuman. Prime had watched carefully as she swallowed down twice and paused for a moment before eagerly licking her lip.
You really are always sweet…
“I get it now,” she breathed, swiping a hand over her chin, “It’s… so much fun.. to watch.”
Prime dropped to his knees to press his lips
to hers once more. When he murmured that he loved her, she channeled her surprise at the admission into deepening the kiss. He responded in tandem by sliding his hand down to rest at her neck. She cried out at feeling unexpectedly Alpha push himself inside of her. Her body now burned with the fullness of taking him all at once. Before she could adjust, his hands dug into her hips and repeated the motion.
“Someone’s possessive,” Prime sighed, raising his hands with a smile to the low growl he received in response. He leaned back and motioned for Alpha to continue, “Go on, then. Mark our territory.”
Digging her hands into the sheets, Scout tried to relax as her quivering walls ached against him. Going from Embry treating her like glass to being pounded roughly from behind hadn’t given her any time to prepare for the sting. Looking up, she locked eyes with Prime again as he marveled at the sight of her.
“Look at you taking me so well.”
When the throbbing began to dull, she felt herself growing warm again. Her body trembled as he took her relentlessly, just like she wanted. Deep, fast, and heavenly.
“Oh god, Embry,” she moaned, “Harder!”
While slowly lowering herself down to the mattress to keep from falling, Alpha’s hand pressed between her shoulders to hold her down. The change in angle had each thrust hitting that perfect spot his fingers always found. Rather than teasing to build her up over time, that pressure grew instantly and she felt herself clenching around him. The hand on her back traced down and around her hip to swirl at her clit.
With Alpha groaning behind her, Prime returned to taunting her.
“Are you gonna come with me inside you?”
“Please,” she whined, squeezing her eyes shut, “Let me come for you.”
“You’re not so tough, Miss Odair. I’m gonna remember you loving every second of being held down and fucked.”
“Oh God, yes! Yes! I love it. I love you. Please.”
When her body gave in, the release tore through her. She went limp, releasing her grip on the sheets. The sudden inability to piece together any thoughts left her with only laughter. When she finally managed to focus on Prime again, he was beaming at her. She managed another giggle before feeling Alpha’s body on top of her.
“You’re mine,” He bit into her shoulder and left her gasping, “Say it.”
“I’m… yours. I’m all yours.”
In her daze, she felt him thrust into her one last time before letting out a strained groan. When he kissed her now, it was with the softness she was used to feeling. She laughed as he kissed her cheeks, nose, and forehead before pulling away again. He sat up as Prime found his way beside her, mirroring Alpha by resting a hand on her knee. Her stomach flipped as she realized what had captivated their attention. Embry had doubts on whether they could even conceive but still typically chose to err on the side of caution after the first time.
While he had been more subtle about staring then, it was impossible to ignore the way they were both looking at her now. She managed a brief look of concern as words still seemed too difficult.
“What a view.”
“You’d have been in trouble if we had come back a few days sooner,” Prime sighed, “If you were in heat, I’d have had you back in the Union Hall.”
“Watch it,” Alpha glared.
“We’re having fun - no need to be hostile. I’m admiring your work.”
“You’re both being bad,” Scout insisted, trying to close her legs. When they both smiled and refused to let her budge, she scowled. “I liked it better when you were fighting over me.”
“You’ve liked everything so far.”
Hearing them laugh at her sent a shiver down her spine. Though she tried to play it off as frustration, they both lit up instantly.
“She’s insatiable. I see why human men disappointed her.”
“I was promised both of you. You’re both still hard and I’m still horny,” she interrupted, “Don’t you disappoint me now, too.”

It hadn’t taken much longer for her to stop thinking altogether. Prime had pulled her down to the edge of the bed, raised her hips, and ordered her to show him just how much of him she could really take. She still had some focus then on working herself against him amidst their endless teasing. Even as Prime moved her legs up to his shoulders and she turned to take Alpha in her mouth, her desperation to be good to them kept her from zoning too far out. But somewhere between the pounding and feeling cum run down her chest, anything other than physical touch melted away.
The rest of their time slipped away beneath delirious giggles and unfiltered moans. Unwilling and unable to resist, she melted effortlessly into either frame that pulled her in. Over and over, she felt herself being passed back and forth through various positions. It didn’t matter who was on her as long as they kept going. Though her entire body had begun to ache, she couldn’t bear the thought of stopping. When else would she have a chance to be stopped mid-riding and pulled back into being taken from behind? What chance was there that she’d be able to get the feral, nasty side of him back out?
At the point where her limbs and eyelids felt far too heavy, she sat in Alpha’s lap with her head resting over his shoulder. He moved her hips slowly and whispered out sweet nothings. As she turned to kiss him again, her legs squished into the mattress and she started to fall forward into the pillows. Just before gravity could become the final thing to knock the wind out of her, an arm wound around her waist and pulled her back up onto her knees. Slowly looking over her shoulder, her heart raced at the familiar sight.
“Embry!” Scout mumbled, pressing her body back into his, “You came back… you came back to me.”
Embry’s initial frown at the sight of her softened at her smile.
“Of course, sunbeam. Always.”
Steadying herself against him, she clumsily turned around and wrapped her arms over his shoulders. Upon missing her first attempt to kiss him and erupting into a fit of giggles as her lips mashed into his cheek, his fingers gently tilted her chin up for him to lean down to her. She kissed back hungrily, aching jaw and numb lips be damned. Feeling steadied after realizing he had brought her down on her back, she rested a hand at the side of his face, tracing down his tattoo with her thumb.
“I missed you so much.”
“Yeah, you were sufferin’ all right.”
She laughed while his worried expression returned.
“I made the best of it.”
“Scout, that shouldn’t have happened.”
“That was amazing,” she sighed, rubbing their noses together, “You’re amazing. God, I’ve never been fucked this good in my life.”
As she covered his face in kisses, Embry managed a small smile.
“You’re not even on this planet right now. You’re not thinking clearly.”
“You’re naked and on top of me. That’s all I want to think about.”
She watched as he made a face and shook his head as if she had said something ridiculous, but made no efforts to get off of her.
“Right now, I need to get everything cleaned up in here. Did they even bother to feed you?”
Does swallowing several shots of you count? They were all doubles.
At her lack of response, he finally sat up.
“Come back,” she pouted, reaching up to weakly paw at his chest, “You know I need your warmth.”
“I’ll whip something up for you. And let me run you a bath so you can sit. I don’t trust you on your legs right now.”
“Will you join me? I’m not hungry and I don’t care about the sheets right now. I just.. I want to cuddle.”
“You’re exhausted. You can barely keep your eyes open.”
The hormonal drop off hit all at once. She knew now that he could see what her body was going through. The only thing she wanted was aftercare. Embry had always been affectionate and loving after sex before. Such a dramatic change had her assuming the worst.
“Are you mad at me?”
“No, I’m not mad. Tonight was just… out of character. It was dangerous.” His voice was strained with guilt, “I wasn’t myself.”
“I feel incredible,” she snapped, fighting the urge to burst into tears. The white hot shame of embarrassment licked across her skin as a painful reminder that her desire to be humiliated didn’t extend beyond the bedroom. “Do you see me differently now?”
“No, no, no. Of course not.”
“We were doing something we both wanted and being vulnerable with each other. I thought it was special but now you want nothing to do with me. What did I do wrong?”
“Hey, hey, stop,” Embry cooed, pulling her back into his arms. She nuzzled back into his neck, burying her face as she tried to stop herself from crying. “I don’t see you any differently. Nothing could ever change how I feel about you, I promise.”
“Tell me the truth,” she demanded, taking comfort in feeling him kiss her head.
“I love you. I love you more than anything else in the world. You’re everything to me.”
“I’m still your sunbeam?”
“Always. You’re the source of all my power,” he agreed, smiling as she poked her head out to make sure he was sincere. “You didn’t do anything wrong.”
“And you did?”
He sighed in acceptance of the conversation he hoped could wait until the morning.
“I’m seeing myself differently. I thought I was better than that, but when push came to shove, I was just.. an animal.”
“Don’t say that. You aren’t an animal.”
As his eyes traced down her body, she followed his line of sight. Her pale skin offered little help concealing the splotches of bruises forming. With handprints and bite marks between them, it was clear that her experience hadn’t been gentle. Her body was aching, leaking, and tired. That fact was all he could focus on.
“I asked for this. I loved it,” she interrupted, “So I must be an animal, too.”
“I don’t have any marks on me.”
“Not for lack of trying. If you were human, you wouldn’t be able to sleep on your back tonight.”
“But I’m not.”
He didn’t need to finish the thought.
“You’re not a monster and you’re as human as I need you to be.”
The silence that followed was far too tense for comfort. When she had imagined his return, it certainly hadn’t gone like this.
“Is it the fact that you enjoyed it or is it the fact Alpha was the replicant that’s upsetting you so much?”
Embry looked away, seemingly bothered by the fact she had noticed and confronted him with it. Though it was clear he was actively trying to shrivel up and die, she hadn’t been trying to hurt him.
“Did you know?”
“Not at first. I was just as sure as everyone that Alpha was the original. Well, everyone but Hunter.”
“Wonderful.”
“Relax - neither of them were 100% you and we all know that. I don’t think anyone else would ever guess that more of you went to the cocky, sexually charged one.”
“But, of course, you did.”
“I’m a journalist,” she shrugged, “Little clues kept adding up.”
“I don’t like that you associate me with treating you like an object.”
Scout shook her head, “You know I don’t think that. You’re just embarrassed that you can’t deny being a horny freak for me anymore.”
“I should be,” Embry groaned, squeezing at his temples.
Scout sat up, wincing as she pulled her knees to her chest, “Aren’t you curious about what it was that made me realize Prime was the original?”
“I’m busy being mortified.”
“Do you remember it? Or did merging wipe your mind?”
He paused for a moment before sitting up beside her.
“It’s strange. In my head, it was just me in two places at once rather than two people. Everything is from one point of view.”
“You told me you loved me and you called me sunbeam.”
“Yeah, that sounds like me.”
“And I couldn’t get you to stop eating me out.”
“Okay, that’s not-“
“Both of them, really, but mostly Prime. And you were cursing. I’ve only ever heard you say ‘fuck’ when that’s what we’re doing.”
“All right, I get it.”
“I can tell in your voice that you’re smiling,” Scout snorted, “But yeah, I figured it out, and it didn’t change anything. I meant what I said about loving every part of you, Embry. That side of yourself that you’re so ashamed of gets along really well with the side of me that I don’t talk about.”
“I thought maybe the more human part of me would play nicer but he didn’t exactly do me any favors either.”
“He did plenty for me,” she shrugged, swinging her legs over the side of the bed. After cautiously stepping forward, she made her way over to the window. “I wish these opened. I could use a cigarette.”
“You’re giving the city quite a show.”
“That’s okay: I hear I have a gorgeous rack worth showing off,” she grinned, looking back to gloat, “The only person who can see up here is Starman and I don’t think he’d mind.”
“I’m sure he’s not pleased that you look battered.”
“My sources say otherwise.”
“I know he won’t take kindly to that.”
“I have it on pretty good authority that he loves to listen and look at me in all kinds of states. Want to know my theory?” She asked, making her way over to straddle him.
“He’s a pervert? Something racist about tribal polygamy?”
“He’s a man.”
“That’s it?”
“That’s it. He’s my man and he’s smitten with me. My tits, my ass, my everything.”
“Your brain, your heart, your soul. Heck, I think he even loves how often you seem to run headfirst into danger,” Embry smiled, running his hands up to her waist, “I love everything on the outside, but I love everything you’ve got on the inside, too.”
“I know,” Scout smiled, “And you really love watching it come out of me.”
“Could we have one nice moment? Just one?”
"That's not a denial."
"......I plead the fifth."
“I love you inside and out, too… even when me being a brash city girl makes you get all bashful. The most powerful man in the world and he’s blushing for me.”
They both leaned in to kiss at the same time. With days to make up for, Scout didn’t pull away until she absolutely had to - and still kept her lips close to his.
“How about that bath?”
“No funny business, Odair. I’m cleaning you up, feeding you, and tucking you in.”
“I can behave… if you’re willing to misbehave again. We know it’s safe. Unless you tell me you were actually having a terrible time, there’s no reason not to do something we both enjoy.”
“I’ll see what I can do. I can’t keep doing this or people will start to talk.”
“But you’re willing to compromise?” she asked, squeezing tighter as he picked her up to head off towards the bathroom.
“You just hate when I make love to you, don’t you?”
"No," Scout smirked, "I just want both."
It could all be so simple God made Adam and Eve, and Steve Why are we not all kissing? This is absurd!
