When they touch me (Shelagh Milano)

Chapter 55 ARTEMISIA

I can't really complain because I have had some really lovely moments waking up since I have been living here.

But getting woken up from my afternoon nap by the couple's vibrator vibrating between my legs and slipping from the state of grogginess into the one of a blissful high, is the most amazing awakening I have ever had.

Stretching as my orgasm gets me to spasm in pleasure, I bite my lip as it stops vibrating right as I have ridden out my release fully and I think of the fact that it must be Fynn operating it.

And he surely did enjoy as I came as well.

After getting up, I played the good girl and didn't take it off.

I can't deny that it did keep me from being too productive, also I can't say that I felt at ease wearing it as I feared someone walking in on me having an orgasm all by myself. But I can certainly admit that it made my afternoon immensely better. And I even see my work in a bit better light.

By the time I walk into the dining hall because Daisy insists on how I should eat with the others as it would do me good, my heart skyrockets.

And not only because of Fynn glaring at me as he is sitting at a table with his warriors. Matthew and Logan are sitting at other tables, and both seem to act like they didn't see me enter the room.

Fine for me...

I sit down next to Lisa, where Daisy has already pulled out a chair for me and I thank her absent-mindedly while holding eye contact with Fynn.

"Are you okay?" Lisa asks me, and I tear away my eyes reluctantly from him and just catch him grinning to himself while averting his gaze as well.

Oh, please let him be reasonable for once.

I actually have to laugh at that, earning a questioning look from Lisa.

"Sorry," I clear my throat, flashing her an innocent smile. "I'm feeling a bit on edge lately."

Her expression morphs as she must feel pity for me, and I groan internally. "Is it because of your mates?"

It's not that bad.

"No, no. It's just... Everything is new, and I'm trying to help around to feel part of the pack and at home as soon as possible," I sigh, feeling Fynn's eyes back on me.

She rolls her eyes with a giggle. "You are just precious. But you really should stop doing all those Omega tasks. They will end up undermining your worth."

"I don't think that will be the case," I retort, scrunching my nose.

I'm just about thinking that I must be weird by feeling uncomfortable at her statement as Drake hums in my mind. 'That one is sketchy. Let me crush her skull, mate.' I have to swallow a laugh, nearly choking on my food.

Wanting to grin and bear it, I squeeze Lisa's hand. "I'm sure that my mates will not allow that to happen."

"Ah, totally! You are so lucky... I

mean, duh, Logan would already be absolute heaven for me," she giggles and I smile at her, even if her statement causes an uncomfortable sensation to grow in my chest.

BUMS

Instinctively, I look at Fynn as if he could calm me down, but he just gets my heart to beat out of my chest again as he is playing with his phone with a strange grin playing on his face. I really hope this is because one of the guys sitting around him is saying something funny.

Concentrating back on Lisa, I sigh. "I really am lucky. They are all so loving."

I start eating again, pushing down the ill-founded jealous feeling she got rising in me.

'You are so diplomatic, mate. I would have bitten off her head.' Drake laughs, before retreating, and this makes me jerk up, just in time to see Fynn walking out of the hall.

"If you will excuse me," I say quickly before scurrying after him.

Ignoring Lisa calling for me, I storm out of the kitchen and upstairs to the quarters he shares with the warriors.

I get annoyed as I nearly can't keep up with him and his stupid long strides, and I know exactly that he must know that I'm following him.

But I don't care.

As we enter the warrior's quarters on the second floor, he turns around with a sly smirk. "So you were following me, mate."

"I need to talk to you," I say, and he chuckles.

Turning back around, he starts walking further down the hallways. "As long as today didn't make you fall in love with me, we can talk about whatever you want."

I cringe at his back acting like the entitled asshole, and totally lost his flirtatious demeanour he had just a few hours before.

"Fynn, could you please slow down?" I ask and am actually surprised as he halts in his tracks, turning to me.

Distorting his face, he looks up to

the ceiling as I catch up with him As soon as I'm standing next to him, he glares down at me. "What do you even want? Coming into a men's dorm like this."

"What is that even supposed to mean? I will tell you as soon as we are somewhere we can talk

privately stretch out my hand as if gesturing to the surrounding rooms that are already full of men standing in the door frames to eavesdrop.

I stop my eyes from roaming around quickly as I realise that most of them are standing there naked.

So, that's what he meant.
