I squeaked in alarm when he emerged from the surface, water cascading off his strong frame. He laughed down at me and stepped close. I was submerged to the shoulders but his chest was visible above the water. Below it, the shape of his abdomen and thighs wavered in the bluish lights and his cock hung heavy at his groin. He was completely hairless aside from his head. My breath hitched when he sank down and gripped the backs of my thighs, lifting me up out of the water. I had to grab hold of his shoulders to keep from tipping as he surged forward, stopping to prop me against the lip of the pool.

The chilly air hit my skin and I gasped, holding on a little tighter to absorb some of his body heat. Even the temperate climate of Los Angeles could be chilly in December.

“Wh-what are you doing?” I asked.

The mischievous glint in his eyes returned. “You know all there is to know of Theo, with his blood inside you. I’d like to learn more about you, Zarya. Will you share your essence with me? Let me give you mine?”

“Right here?” I asked, glancing toward the main house. My landlord wasn’t home, but there were security cameras all over the property.

“Are you too cold? We can fix that easily. Kyril!” he called, turning to his friend. Kyril watched us from the end of the pool, his posture tense as though he were ready to leap into the water himself. “Get in and help me raise a barrier to keep the heat in.”

“You can do that?” I asked.

Once again, reality seemed to waver before my eyes as Kyril pulled the same trick as Dorian, teleporting out of his clothes and into the water right in front of us, naked. His eyes glinted with amusement at my surprised look.

“Give me your hand, Zarya,” Kyril said. “It’s quicker if more nymphaea are linked.”

I put my hand in his, not surewhatwas quicker but curious all the same.

Dorian took my other hand and the pair of them linked theirs. A tiny jolt of energy seemed to pass from them both into my hands. Steam rose up from the water, floating around us in an almost opaque cloud before expanding out like an enormous bubble. As it grew, the air around me warmed. It was a moist warmth, like a sauna, but far more comfortable to be naked in than the fifty-degree December air.

When Dorian and Kyril released my hands, the bubble had expanded to encompass the entire swimming pool. The outer barrier was only visible by the condensation that collected on the surface, as if it were made of glass, but I was sure it wasn’t anything like that.

“It’s a water bubble, isn’t it?” I asked, awestruck by what I’d helped them create. “Too bad it can’t make us invisible in here. My landlord has cameras. I’m only here temporarily, but I’d rather not give him any excuses to evict me before I find a new place.” I’d secured a pretty sweet arrangement with a celebrity client who came to me for ink. I was merely house-sitting rent-free while he was on location filming a movie somewhere. I’d owe him some tattoos in return, but it was more than worth it. But I still didn’t want to test the boundaries of our friendship if I could help it.

Understanding dawned on Dorian’s face. “It wasn’t the cold that made you hesitate, was it? We can alter the barrier to reflect light.” He raised both hands out of the water and made a flicking motion with all his fingers. A spray of droplets flew out from his hands, hitting the barrier high above us and sending cascades of ripples across the entire surface. It looked like a million little mirrors flickered into existence before fading away to reveal the night sky once more.

“There. Now it’s as if we aren’t even here.” He smiled at me and leaned close again, resting his hands on my thighs.

Kyril hoisted himself out of the water and sat at my side. “Much more bearable. Are there hot springs everywhere in this part of the human world?”

“Hot springs? Ah, no. I mean they exist, but this pool is just heated using good old-fashioned natural gas.” I shot a glance at Kyril, letting my gaze drop to his hips. I involuntarily licked my lips at the sight of the huge length lying across the top of one thigh, only half hard but still impressive. My core gave a little spasm and I forced my eyes back up, face heating when I met his wicked, smiling eyes.

“I’m all yours, Zar. Can I call you that?”

“Baby, you can call me whatever the hell you want.”

“What about beautiful?” Dorian asked. He slid his hands higher up my thighs and curled his fingers around my hips. With a squeeze and a sudden pull, he slid me to the very edge of the pool, my legs dangling off into the water. “Or maybegoddessis more fitting, considering how I’m about to worship you.”

He hooked his hands beneath each knee and pulled my legs wide. The movement threw me off-balance and I gasped, catching myself on my hands. Kyril slung one strong arm behind me, supporting my shoulders.

“Will you let us taste you now?” Kyril asked.

Dorian was already leaning in, his breath gusting across my mound, but he hovered there, waiting for my answer.

“Please, yes,” I said, surprised by how much I wanted to come again despite the mind-blowing orgasm Theo had already given me.

With a smirk, Dorian dipped his head and pressed a soft, reverent kiss to the top of my slit. I sighed, just watching, still in awe that these men were even here now.

“What about Theo? Are you sure you want to start without him?” I asked.

Dorian merely shot me another mischievous smile and lowered his head again, this time extending the tip of his tongue and tracing it around the edges of my outer folds. I shuddered, letting my head fall against Kyril’s shoulder.

Kyril scooted closer, leaning in enough to support me entirely. He lifted his free hand and cupped my chin, tilting my head back to look down into my eyes. “We’ll go slow. Theo will have plenty of time to join in when he returns.”

Dorian dipped lower, gripping my ankles and lifting my feet to place them on his shoulders. His probing tongue made it to the bottom of my pussy and darted in, teasing my opening with light swirls before sliding up the other side. I moaned and hooked my hand around the back of Kyril’s neck.

“Good, because I want him to be the first to fuck me.”
