My hips grind against him, rubbing my aching clit against his cock. “Is this what you want?” I ask breathlessly.

Kai’s fingers tighten, leaving little indents on my thighs. His head thrusts back onto the pillow and he bites his bottom lip with his fangs. “Always, baby girl. But right now? I want more.” He lifts me effortlessly and slides me onto his cock. We both groan, and I can’t help but lift myself up with my thighs, sliding almost completely off, only to sit back down. “Oh fuck, that’s it, baby girl.”

With my eyes closed, I have no idea what Cade and Sterling are doing, but I hear the drawer on the nightstand open and someone rifles through it. When I open my eyes, I see Sterling pulling out a bottle of lube. He settles behind me, running his fingers over the swell of my ass. Butterflies swoop in my belly in anticipation. I’ve taken Cade back there, but Sterling is thicker.

He wraps his hand around my throat and runs his nose over his mark on the opposite side of Kai’s. At the same time he slips one finger inside my back hole. I groan, my rhythm faltering, but Kai keeps it going by lifting his own hips.

Sterling preps me, slowly stretching and adding more fingers. The nervous uncertainty has completely fled at his touch, and in its place a molten hot need has taken up residence. He leans against my back, and whispers in my ear, “Ready, kitten?”

“Yes,” I breathe, lowering myself over Kai.

Sterling takes his time, making sure I’m okay every step of the way. Kai rubs my clit, keeping me on edge and ready for more. Each slow inch Sterling pushes in, fills and stretches me almost to the point I can’t bear it. Every nerve ending is lit up, each touch is pure bliss. And watching Kai’s face, teeth gritted and eyes squeezed shut, as Sterling’s cock rubs along his with just the thin wall between them, makes this even hotter.

By the time Sterling is all the way in, all three of us are panting and sweating. I’m aching in places I was never aware of before. A little whimper escapes me, and Kai slowly lifts his hips making me see stars.

“Oh,” I gasp, nails digging into his chest. “Don’t stop.”

“Wasn’t planning on it,” he grits out.

Cade kneels on the bed by Kai’s head and roughly grabs Kai’s chin in his fingers, turning his head and forcing his jaws open. Kai eagerly takes Cade’s cock into his mouth, and I watch, biting my lip to keep myself from coming already. Cade watches me with a wicked smile, knowing exactly what watching does to me.

It’s too much. All the sounds, scents, and sensations are burning deep inside my core, each slight movement sending me closer to the edge. Sterling and Kai take turns thrusting in and out. When Kai removes one of his hands from my thighs and slides it around Cade’s backside, I can imagine what he’s doing. Especially when Cade grunts and spills his release into Kai’s mouth.

I whimper again, my core clenching causing Kai and Sterling to both curse. “I’m … oh, gods … I’m …”

“Not yet, kitten,” Sterling growls, wrapping a hand around my throat and squeezing gently.

A strangled noise escapes me—half moan, half cry. I can’t hold on any longer. My pleasure sizzles along every nerve ending. It builds inside of me, rising higher and higher until I know I’ll combust if he doesn’t let me come. Senseless words of pleading fall from my lips and I shake my head side to side.

Sterling brushes his fingers against my wings, right at the base where they meet my back. “Come for us, kitten.”

I scream as my orgasm crashes through me, my back arching and toes curling. Wave after wave of pure bliss flows through me, and my guys bring me through all of it. The fluttering of my inner walls set Kai and Sterling off. They grunt and stiffen, their release spilling into me and filling me completely.

When we are all finally still, the only sound in the room is the chorus of our heavy breathing. Sterling slowly pulls out, making me whimper, and Kai opens his eyes. They shine with so much emotion as he looks at me.

“There are no words for how magnificent you are, baby girl,” he breathes, touching my face tenderly.

I collapse on top of him and close my eyes, my body spent and ready for a break. I let them take care of me, because I know they always will. Sterling cleans me up gently, whispering soothing words and noises into my ear as I whimper at the oversensitivity of my skin.

With my eyes closed, I listen to Cade healing Kai and Sterling, admonishing them for being idiots. They bicker back and forth, insulting each other good naturedly. A family. A unit. Brothers who don’t need blood to bind them together.

I could never have imagined I’d have this. But I do. I have three amazing men who would burn the world for me. A smile tugs at the corner of my lips as my guys settle around me. This is more than I could have ever hoped for. My own family. My own unit. One I hope I can grow one day in the future.

Kai

We wait until we’re back at the cabin and back in our routine of sleeping during the day and training at night, then we decide it’s time to make our move. Grace has been held captive long enough. And two more bodies have washed up from the river not far from the warehouse, both humans with traces of magic. We’re running out of time, and I don’t know how much more training we can give Ellis that will make a huge difference. I’d prefer another year or two, but that obviously can’t happen.

I call Connor, Cole, and Drew and have them meet us one evening at the cabin. We sit in the living room and talk quietly while we wait for Ellis to wake up.

“So, we’re really doing this?” Drew asks, taking a drink from his beer.

“We are.” I glance at Cade and he gives me an encouraging nod. “And before Ellis wakes up, I want to make sure everyone knows the only thing that matters is her making it out of this alive. Cade, Sterling, and I will give our lives for her. No questions asked.”

Cole nods in understanding. “If anything happens to you three, I’ll make sure she’s okay. She can move in with mom.”

“Thanks, Cole,” Sterling says quietly. His usually vibrant blue eyes are dull.

I close my eyes and rub my chest. Just the thought of leaving her alone makes me panic. And I don’t need to use my abilities to know Cade feels the same way. His eyes are wild, hands fisted tightly at his sides. But the chances of all three of us dying are slim, right? At least one of us will survive to keep her safe and care for her. Fuck. I can’t think of that.
