Alpha’s Possession by Jessica Hall Chapter 109

Chapter 9 – An Hour Earlier

Harlow POV

I must have dozed off at some point because I was awoken by Thane placing a tray on my lap and Raidon shaking me awake. Lifting my head off Raidon’s chest, I find a tray with French toast and coffee. My hand instantly goes for the coffee. “You seem calmer,” Thane says, and I nod, taking a sip of the coffee.

“Eat,” grumbles Raidon, tapping the tray and picking up a piece of toast. I roll my eyes at his bossiness, but still pick up a piece, tearing a junk off. “Where’s Rhen?” I ask after swallowing.

“At work,” Leon says, stepping out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist; my eyes roam over his muscled body, and I lick my lips. My hunger for other things rearing its d*mn ugly head. Raidon chuckles. “Our Omega has turned into a Ny*pho,” he purrs, making me look at him.

I glare at him, and he pinches my chin between his fingers, forcing my face to his. His lips brush mine softly, and I growl, biting his lip. He chuckles, snapping his teeth next to mine.

“I don’t mind if you bite,” he laughs, with a smug smile on his lips, which makes me remember that I had already marked him.

My eyes zero in on his neck, my face scrunches up, and I sit up higher. Raidon slips his arm: behind me, just as Thane quickly removes the tray, grabbing my coffee before I spill it everywhere.

Raidon hauls me on top of him, so I am straddling his waist, yet my eyes are on his neck. My bond demanding to know where my mark went, I check the other side of his neck and Raidon’s fingers trail up my spine as I turn his head looking for it. I could have sworn I marked him.

Pulling back I look at him before glancing over my shoulder at Leon wondering if it was him I marked. I remember the taste of blood, remember marking one of them. Leon is pulling his jeans on while watching me, his eyes flick to Thane and I feel the bed dip behind me as Thane climbs on the bed behind me. He sits between Raidon’s legs, his hands slipping around my waist as he pulls me back against him, his hands smoothing over my belly.

“You’re confused why your mark didn’t stick,” he states, and I nod, staring at Raidon’s neck and some part of me wonders if he rejected me while I was sleeping. I glare at him, my chest hurting at the thought and I touch his mark on my neck, feeling it perfectly fine, and I let out a breath.

“You did not just think that!” Raidon growls at me. “I would never reject you,” he says, and he must have read my thoughts on my face. Thane sighs behind me, his hands slipping under my belly as he holds it.

“We should have told you, but we \were afraid of how you would react,” Thane purrs, nipping at my shoulder, his lips trailing up my neck and I turn my face to look at him.

He pecks my lips, and he sighs. “ Tell me what?” I ask him, my voice shaking, wondering why they sound so worried, their worry bleeding into me, making me anxious.

“You can’t mark them,” Thane says slowly and my lips part wanting to protest, but his lips cover mine, cutting off anything I wanted to say. “Wait, I’ll explain,” he mumbles against my lips before pulling away.

His eyes flick to Raidon and I could feel Thane’s fear loud and clear, he was afraid to tell me whatever it is. He exhales, pressing his face into my neck before sitting back up.

“Do you remember how I had to mark you first?” he asks, and I nod.

“Yes, because you’re the Alpha, they can’t accept me unless you do,” he nods his head.

“It’s the same with you marking us. I have to allow you to mark me, until I do, you marking them will just heal,”

“Wait, you don’t want me to mark them, therefore I can’t?” I ask, jerking away from him, he growls, pulling me back to him. “That is not what I said, Lowe,”

“But you just said ” Thane cuts me off with a growl at my accusing tone.

“You have to mark me first, I never said I didn’t want you to mark them. Just that until you do, you marking them won’t work,” he finally says.

“It’s also why we wouldn’t touch you, we didn’t want to upset you knowing you would want to mark us,” Raidon says, I raise an eyebrow at him before looking at Leon who shrugs. “Are you all thick?” Leon bristles and shakes his head. “Wow,” Thane says, and I turn to look at him.

“What? Not one of them would touch me, my bond has been going haywire because they won’t come near me, and thinking they are rejecting me, only to find out they wouldn’t touch me in case I marked them?” I stare at them.

They glance at each other.

“You didn’t think to just say that? Jeez, I am not unreasonable!” I snap at them. “That’s debatable,” Raidon chuckles, I growl at him.

He holds up a finger and gives me a pointed look. “If we told you that you had to mark Thane to mark us when you first got here, you would have pitched a fit,” I blink at him, I swear I could see his brain cells dying before my eyes. “And probably ran from us, again,” Leon adds.

“No, I wouldn’t have liked it, but I wouldn’t have run again. I didn’t have to come back here, I knew by doing so that meant I had to accept Thane too, since you all d*mn well come as a quadruple package. I would have been pissed, but at least I wouldn’t have spent the last couple of weeks thinking you were all repulsed by touching me,” I tell them.

“Now, why would you think that?” Raidon snarls angrily, I point to my stomach. Is he blind!

“Maybe the fact, that I am the size of a f**king house, while you all walk around like Greek G*ds, posing to have your goddamn statue erected.”

“The only thing ‘erected’ around here is my damn c**k, don’t let me hear you speak such nonsense again,” Raidon snaps at me.“ Besides, I like your tiger stripes, nothing sexier than knowing you are growing our child,” Raidon purrs, leaning forward and clamping his hands on either side of my face.

He jerks me forward, kissing me. He forces his tongue into my mouth, kissing me as if I was the very air he needed to breathe, while I actually needed that air. He chuckles, pulling away, and I narrow my eyes at him.

“A*shole!”

“Your a*shole,” he corrects while climbing off the bed. “Shower with me,” he says, holding his hand out to me. I slap it, and he laughs, wandering off into the bathroom. Huffing, I unwrap Thane’s arms from around me.

“Where are you going?” Thane purrs as I crawl to the edge of the bed. I flinch as the sting of his hand brands my backside. I jump and twist, my a*s stinging, and he smirks at me.

“To shower, I reek of sex, and – “I shake my head. “And you should shower too, I am not biting you while you’re covered in blood, and I need to brush my teeth,” I tell him.

“She is marking me, she says,” Thane laughs, looking at Leon.

“Pretty sure that’s what she just said,” I pin Leon with my glare.

“I feel assaulted. Don’t I get a say in this?” Thane laughs.

“Nope,” I tell him, popping the P at the end and climbing off the bed. “Hm, maybe I won’t let you,” he jokes, and I tilt my head looking at him. I knew he was mucking around, yet I didn’t like the smug look on his face.

I shrug at his words when he reaches over as I walk past him, his fingers wrap around my wrist, and he pulls me to him. “Maybe I should make you beg?” I tap my chin, thinking.

“Hop to it then, on your knees,” I tell him. He raises an eyebrow at me. “I meant you beg me.” he says.

“Ah, I thought you said that but figured you must have got your words jumbled because I won’t beg, but now you have suggested it? I really think I need to see you on your knees.”

“Excuse me?” he says. I was having way too much fun with this as the wheels started turning in my head.

“Yep that should do it, I can put up with your tyrant ways. I just need to see that first and I will be content tying you to me,”

“Tying me to you? I think you got wires crossed somewhere, you don’t own me,” Thane laughs looking at Leon. Leon snickers at him and Thane turns his gaze back to me and I step out of his reach.

“Now would be great; I really need to shower,” I tell him, pointing at the floor. Thane leans back on the bed, bracing his hands on either side of him.

“No! I am not bowing down and begging you to mark me,” he deadpans. I huff, then shrug, turning to move toward the bathroom.

“Wait, that’s it?” Thane asks.

“Yep, no skin off my nose; I have survived this long without marking them, haven’t I?” I tell him, stepping into the bathroom.“ Lowe? You need to mark us!” I stop, turning in the doorway to face him.

“Do I, though?” I ask him. Thane huffs, and I walk over to him when Raidon sings out from the bathroom. “If Thane is begging, wait, I want to witness this! Leon

get your phone,” he calls out.

“I am not begging!”

“I think you are,” I tell him, and he scoffs. Leon clamps a hand on his shoulder. “Don’t worry, I will get proof to show Rhen. He won’t believe us otherwise,” Leon tells him. Thane’s face falls, and he growls at Leon.

“Are you forgetting who your Alpha is, Leon? I don’t mind reminding you,” Thane warns, and Leon shrugs.

“You may be Alpha, but she is Harlow, and carrying our baby, what Momma wants Momma gets, now on your knees, or you might as well pledge to your celibacy,”

“Excuse me?” Raidon burst out the door behind me. “Good, I haven’t missed it,” he says, tucking the corner of his towel into his waistline.

Thane looks at me, and I smile while he glares, clearly not finding this being turned around on him funny. “You never know. You may enjoy it,” I snicker.

“Doubtful, I don’t get on my knees for anyone.”

“Except for me!” I tell him, rubbing my foot across the carpet, and I point to my foot. “Right about there, should do it. Any closer and I won’t be able to see your eyes over my baby bump,”I tell him, rubbing my huge belly.

Thane begrudgingly gets up, growling, and muttering under his breath. “Ah, what was that? I didn’t quite hear you, Thane.”

“This is ridiculous,” he mutters.” But it’s not ridiculous for me or Leon to beg?” I retort.

“That’s different, I’m alpha!” he huffs.

“On your knees, Omega,” I tell him, “You did not-” I smile.“ Looks like the only one that won’t be getting their d*ck sucked around here is you,” I tell him. He growls, looking at Raidon.

“Don’t look at me, I like getting my d*ck sucked; I am just here to witness,” Raidon purrs at him.

Thane mutters something under his breath before dropping to his knees. I look down at him while he glares at my vagina. “My eyes are up here.” The look he gives me at those words makes me giggle.

He sighs. “You’re lucky, I love you,” he huffs before kissing my belly and cupping it in his hands.“ Harlow, will you mark me please?” I ponder for a second, pretending to think really hard while tapping my finger to my chin. “Woman, I swear if you got me on my knees to reject me I will sp*nk you.’

“Hm, maybe I wouldn’t mind being sp*nked,” he growls his eyes flickering black, and he smirks. “ You would like that, wouldn’t you,” he purrs his hands moving from my belly and down my thighs.

“Yes, Thane, I will mark you,” I giggle when I hear Leon’s phone camera go off. Thane growls, shooting him a glare over his shoulder. He goes to stand when I push down on his head. “But while you’re down there,” Thane growls, grabbing me and making me squeal, not expecting the rush, as my legs went out from under me.

I grab his shoulders and my heart races as his lips crash against mine. “My naughty, Omega,” he growls against my lips, while pressing me gently down on the bed. His lips travel south, nipping, and licking when I feel a twinge of worry from Rhen. Thane also tenses, feeling it too. He lifts his head looking at the others when I see Raidon suddenly rush from the room.

“Leon, watch Harlow,” Thane growls, taking off after Raidon while I sit up on my elbows.” What’s going on?” I worry, feeling all theirs.

Leon shakes himself and smiles.“ Whatever is going on, Thane will handle it,” Yet I could see the worry on Leon’s face, feeling it through the bond.

“Come, I’ll help you shower.” Leon says, offering me his hand. Just as I hear Thane
