My nostrils flared as I took in the scent of this man. I could see his pulse race through his veins, his excitement awakening the beast inside me. No pack can survive without a Trinity leading it. I'd always had my Omega, my Seneschal. He and I had been through hell and back. But our mission was still to find our third, a person to balance our rage and power with introspection and wisdom. We were on our trip back to Trondheim, ready to give up. But then we saw him. Gorgeous eyes, soft lips and a tight ass I needed to claim. To mark. To bring into our pack. Almost 8,000 words of a bottom twink being railed by two alpha male Shifters. Fixed a few typos in the original version, my apologies!
