Middle Child Syndrome - Chapter 163

Chapter 163: Ch 163: Not here
Rika was sure she would have backed out if she had more time to consider her actions. However, her condition did not allow Rika to think about anything other than the scents surrounding her.

‘This feels…too good. I feel like I am melting. Why did I want to complain about it in the first place?’

“You are still overthinking, Rika. Please be sure just to empty your mind and look at Dami. Does he look like he wants to avoid being here and helping out? He seems ready to devour you once you give him a chance.”

Emily raised Rika’s head to look at Damian’s hungry expression.

The dominant alpha was looking at Rika with a devouring gaze. Rika’s insides shivered in delight, and her mouth went dry. She did not know what to think or do now.

“He likes you, Rika. We both want you much more than you think. So, please accept us and let us mark you. You can back down any time you want to, as well. We will not complain or hold you back.”

That was a lie.

No one else will ever do now that Emily has tasted Rika. Damian was the same as her in this regard.

Rika was the only one they wanted to mark as their partner. And she was also the only reason the alpha pair was together in the first place.

Seeing Rika squirm and struggle was a kind of fun torture. It made Emily want to put more pressure on her.

“I…don’t know about it. Aren’t you getting too influenced by your emotions and letting them control you? You both are in a perfectly normal relationship. Adding me into the mix will only complicate it-”

Rika tried to complain, but before Emily could even say anything to reassure her, Damian decided to act.

His lips felt cold and ruthless as they mapped Rika’s mouth out.

It was an overwhelming kiss that left Rika wanting more. She was wet, and her underwear was soaked beyond belief.

Damian looked normal when he pulled back, but his silver eyes made Rika shiver in arousal.

“You overthink. I like you, and that’s it. Nothing else matters to me.”

Damian spoke aloud, and Rika wondered if confessing when his lover was right there was a wise move.

“See! I told you Dami likes you. I love you as well. We want you as our third, and we want to help you out. Won’t you give us a chance?”

There…was a lot to unpack here.

Rika wanted to give the duo her answer right that second, but the words were stuck in her throat.

None of it felt real. It was overwhelming, and Rika feared it was all caused by her pheromones.

“I…”

“Shh! Please don’t worry about waiting for us to answer right now if you don’t mind. You can take your time and think about it. Please just let us help you out with your pseudo-heat. You won’t be able to calm down on your own if you leave it be.”

Emily was likely correct.

Rika’s brain was shutting down, and she knew herself well enough to know that she was a mess when she lost her mind.

‘Giving into my heat this time will not hurt. After what just happened, my friendship with Emily and Damian will not remain intact. So I could go all the way and experience everything before giving it all up.

Rika’s emotions were a mess, but she took a huge step and reached for Emily’s face with an almost hesitant look.

“Emily, we can try a temporary marking once to see how it works. But you must back away when you don’t want me to do something.”

This was the first time Rika had gotten this far. She had never thought about having sex before, but Rika knew she was not a vanilla queen.

She feared that Emily and Damian would find her tastes too firm, and Rika wondered if she could stop once she started.

“Hmm, don’t worry, Rika. Nothing you do can drive us away from you. Also, you need to be more accurate with how deprived Dami and I are. You will be in trouble once we get back to our apartment.”

Emily’s eyes held a dark promise when she looked at Rika.

It made Rika feel a little fearful, and she backed away, only to be stuck in Damian’s arms.

She did not have to look back to know what the hardness pressing and rubbing against her ass was.

It felt huge to even touch something like this. There was no way Rika could fit it inside her body.

“Don’t feel afraid. Your body is made to take it. You will enjoy laying with us as well.”

Rika shivered as the sensual voice whispered these words in her ear, making everything in her body lighten up in flames.

Her legs felt like jelly, and Rika almost collapsed. But the arms around her kept her upright.

Damian’s hold was tight, and he looked happy holding Rika in his arms. His expecting expression was also something Rika did not anticipate seeing.

‘He looks like an excited puppy. I don’t think I’ve seen Damian this excited ever in his life.’

The older alpha had mostly looked uninterested and cold, even during childhood. It was a nightmare to approach or get him interested in anything.

But now, that display was nowhere to be seen.

“Dami, you are excited, but we can’t start here. We need to get Rika home and into a safe place. I don’t think she would enjoy her first time at a hospital.”

Emily placed a hand on Damian’s shoulder, and the alpha almost snapped Emily’s head off.

He was impatient, and Rika could tell how frustrated Damian felt about these delays.

“Come now! You can hold Rika on our way home, and I will drive. That is the best I can offer you. Now be a good boy and come with me.”

Emily somehow led Damian and Rika back to her car and opened the seat.

Rika vaguely remembered to message the dorm lady and her uni that she would not be there tomorrow.

Somehow, Rika had a feeling that she would need the rest.
