"Ric is an alpha?" I had meant to ask Ric about himself, but it never seemed to be the right time.

"He was. His pack was the guard of this castle, and he was promoted to the Royal Guard. He was the prince's best friend. Then he ran when Lilith showed up. He didn't have much of a choice, but I don't think the high-born demons care if the reaction of the vampire is any indication."

I felt movement at the end of the bed and looked to see Kai's eyes wide open. He had lost Rock-Paper-Scissors yet again and was at the foot of the bed.

He sat up and looked at Lucifer and me before he slipped from the bed and went to the bathroom door. He stopped with his hand on the door handle and looked at us again.

Lucifer's breath hitched, and I widened my eyes, realizing that Kai wanted us to follow him.

I wasn't one to assume things. Maybe he just wanted to talk about our plans for tomorrow. Like me, he was feeling anxious about being in Inferna in the first place.

I looked at Lucifer, and he shrugged his shoulders. If it wasn't just an invitation to talk but something more, could I handle that? Would Lucifer even follow?

Hell, I had spiders living inside of me. I didn't know how long I had until they either took me over entirely or killed me.

I climbed across Lucifer and followed Kai into the bathroom. Lucifer muttered a curse, and then I heard the bed creak as he got out of it and followed. He shut the door softly.

"So, you've chosen him?" Kai had his back to us, but I could see the side of his face in the mirror. He was working his jaw, and his eyes were shut.

"Kai... I-"

"Is it because I like mermaids?" He ran his hand over his face. "Fuck. It's because I like mermaids, isn't it?" He turned around, his eyes meeting mine. "I'll get rid of all of them as soon as we're back."

I blinked back at him, unsure of what to say. I hadn't chosen but didn't even know how to begin the conversation about how it would work.

"Is it because I'm Fallen?" He took a step forward but was still a few feet away. "I thought you felt something with me."

"I do." I looked in the mirror to gauge Lucifer's reaction. He was staring at the back of my head with an unreadable expression.

"Kiss her." Lucifer's eyes shifted to Kai.

My breath stuttered out, and I shifted to squeeze my legs together. The yearning had already taken hold the second the bathroom door clicked shut.

A million thoughts ran through my head. Would Lucifer watch? How far were we going to take this? Was someone going to want to stick it in my ass?

It was so quiet in the bathroom; I could hear the water moving in the pipes. Kai seemed to hesitate at Lucifer's command. Lucifer stepped closer to me, his erection evident as it brushed against me.

"Kiss her," he repeated. His hands went to my hips, and he pulled me closer against him.

I practically melted back into him. It had been far too long since I'd been with a man. I had never been with more than one at a time. It excited me.

It also scared the shit out of me.

Kai stepped forward and cupped my cheek. "Is this what you want? Both of us?"

I nodded. I shut my eyes as his lips brushed over mine. I moaned as he slid his tongue between my lips, tangling with my tongue. My hands went to his chest.

Behind me, Lucifer let out a sigh and slowly moved his hips to grind his erection against me as he brought his lips to my neck. Both of them touching my naked body made my head spin.

Before I could process what they were doing, Lucifer slid off my shorts and panties, and Kai lifted my shirt over my head, leaving me bare.

With anyone else, I would have shied away from standing stark naked, the lights showing me in all my glory. But with these two men, I felt worshiped as their eyes burned at the sight of me.

Screw Trent. Maybe I was only "vanilla" because he had made me feel small and unimportant.

"Take off your clothes and lie on the bathmat." Lucifer was certainly bossy. I liked it because that meant I didn't have to think.

There was a moment of hesitation from Kai, but then he took off his pants and pulled his shirt off. Lucifer put his lips to my ear. "You're going to sit on his face."
