Chapter 46 Presents

Thea’s marks were sore but beautiful the following morning. When she looked at them in the mirror for the first time, she cried. Her fingers traced the lines and shapes that were still forming on her skin. Down her shoulders, her back, across her collar bones, up her neck. Lizzy was right. Something felt familiar about them, but she couldn’t place it.

Alaric walked up behind her in their bathroom and kissed his mark.

“They’re beautiful,” Alaric said. “You’re beautiful.”

Alaric traced his part of the design with his fingers.

Pleasure and warmth radiated through them both.

“It’s more than a dream come true,” Thea said. “Before we got together, sometimes | would let myself think about us being mates, you guys marking me, what my marks would look like. I never imagined this. I’ve never seen anything like it.”

“It’s the most beautiful mark I’ve ever seen,” he said. “ And the biggest.”

Thea laughed. Most marks were the size of the palm of a hand. Alphas’ marks were bigger. No one had ever seen three Alpha marks on one person. They seemed to feed off each other and grow exponentially.

“It’s like you guys are screaming to everyone that I’m yours,” Thea said.

“We are,” Alaric said. “People need to know you’re ours, that we’ll protect you, and that they should stay far away from you.”

She turned her head around, asking for a kiss. He turned her body around, brought her into a kiss, and held her tight.

Kai and Conri came in, still waking up. They went straight to their marks, hands roaming Thea’s body, sending relaxing sparks everywhere. She felt the pull to the triplets growing. She craved them, needed them near, needed to touch them.

The triplets’ eyes glazed over.
