Kai and Cade are both naked. Cade is bent over the arm of the couch with one of Kai’s hands pressing down on his neck until his face is buried in the cushions. Kai’s hips pound against Cade’s ass, the sound of flesh on flesh the only noise besides their grunts and groans.
They both turn toward us with wide eyes. Their faces are flushed and gazes fogged with lust. Ellis’s hand tightens around mine and I inhale, taking in her scent. She’s already turned on, and that thought makes my cock stir. She loves to watch those two, and if I’m honest with myself, I kind of do too. I’d never join them, it’s just not my thing. But watching their powerful bodies come together, and just knowing they are embracing their own wants and desires is heady.
I tug Ellis in front of me, tucking her close against my body, her ass pressing against my growing erection. “Are you mad, kitten?” I whisper against the shell of her ear, loud enough Cade and Kai can hear it. “Are you angry they’re fucking without you?”
Neither of them has moved. Cade is pressed into the couch, still impaled by Kai’s cock, and they both heave as they watch Ellis’s reaction. We all know she isn’t mad, and I know her watching them turns them on as much as it does her.
Ellis shakes her head. “No,” she breathes.
Kai grins, his fangs on full display, and Ellis squeezes her thighs together, rubbing herself harder against my hips. I bite back a groan at the feel of her ass pressed against my cock.
“Keep going, Kai,” I growl. “Show Ellis how hard you fuck Cade.”
A small whimper escapes Ellis, and she watches with wide, heated eyes as Kai once again pounds into Cade’s ass.
“What do you want, kitten? Do you want them to come? Or do you want them to wait, so they come all over you?” She shivers as my breath washes over the side of her neck, and her lips part. I want to claim those lips for my own.
“I—I want …”
“Say it kitten,” I growl, watching as her cheeks flush and not just from embarrassment at having to speak the dirty words I want to hear from her lips.
She opens her mouth but then clamps it shut in defiance. My hand slides under her shirt and bra, and I pinch her nipple hard, making her gasp.
“If you’re going to act like a brat, I’ll treat you like one.”
She shudders, rubbing herself against my aching cock and I have to restrain myself so I don’t throw her over the couch with Cade and take her the same way Kai is taking him.
“Say. It.” I pinch her nipple again and her legs shake.
The rosy flush on her cheeks and chest deepens, but she steels herself before saying, “I want them to come on me.”
I chuckle darkly and slip her shirt over her head before unclasping her bra and tossing them both to the floor. Cade and Kai are sweating. Cade’s face is twisted in pleasure, his hands fisted in the couch cushions. But both of them are watching Ellis and the way she reacts to them.
“Don’t make him come, Kai. Our woman wants us to mark her. To make sure everyone knows she’s ours.”
Kai’s eyes flash red, and he pulls out, leaving Cade wanting. Cade looks to Ellis, and through the haze of lust, pride shines in his violet eyes. All three of us want her to smell like us. All the time. For the rest of our lives. No one else will ever have her.
“Cade, tie her wrists behind her back,” I order, grasping her hands and crossing them behind her.
Her shoulders tense, her entire body going rigid. Under my thumbs, her pulse hammers and I don’t think it’s from excitement anymore. I quickly release her as if my skin was burned. It never even crossed my mind what asking her to be tied up would do to her. Fuck.
“Shit, I’m sorry, Ellis,” I mutter against her neck, bringing my hands around to rest on her belly. “We don’t have to do that.”
Kai is standing as still as a predator, his lips pressed into a thin line. Cade steps up to Ellis and cups her cheek.
“Do you want me to tie you up?” he asks quietly. “Just like before, you say the word, love.”
His magic caresses her, purple wisps of light gently teasing and stroking her flesh. One thin strand flicks against her nipple and she arches her back, a moan slipping from between her clenched teeth. He lets his magic roam over her body, licking at every inch of exposed skin, letting her know there are no bands of burning green magic to hurt her. Just pleasure. And love.
She nods her head and Cade grips her chin tightly. “Say the words, Ellis. I need to hear you say you want it.” Cade’s demand isn’t an order of dominance, but one of care and making sure she truly agrees to this.
Ellis sucks in a breath. “I want you to tie me up.”
I can’t see her eyes, but from the way Cade’s blaze, I know some of her inner fire is pouring out. My beautiful, strong, determined harpy.
“Kneel on the couch,” I demand. “And face Kai.”
Her legs are shaky as she walks to the couch and kneels, facing Kai. I give him a look and he pulls a dagger from his discarded pants and slices through her leggings and panties. She gasps, and I don’t miss the way she clenches her thighs once Kai has her clothing in ribbons on the floor.
