His fingers brushed the scars again. My pussy spasmed instantly, making my hips rock into him, seeking release. But the surge of that different need also brought me back to myself. Quickly, I pulled away, sealing the wound.

Ozias smiled up at me. “Good girl.” His eyes went to the four little scars above my breast. “Come here.”

That smile never fading, he helped me extract myself from the rest of my coat and blouse, and then he pulled me closer. His lips sealed over the scars.

My eyes rolled back in my head. “Holy…” Pleasure coursed through me like he was stoking a fire that would consume my soul. “H-how is this?—”

“Mating mark.” He drew back again. “Proof of our bond.”

I wasn’t sure how that was an answer, but I also didn’t have time to ask. Desperate sounds came from my left. Casimir had finished feeding, but the men were by no means done. Dex lay on his back, Casimir on top of him. Their clothes were gone, tossed aside in their hurry. Pressed together, they kissed passionately while their cocks ground against each other.

My core throbbed. Oh gods, that was arousing. How had it never occurred to me how enticing it could be to watch as well as join in?

Dex gasped, his head tilting back and his hips jerking as his release overtook him. Gripping his shoulders hard, Casimir buried his head against the giant’s chest and groaned out his own orgasm.

I shuddered, wet as hell, my gaze riveted on them both.

Ozias made a pleased noise and then took my chin, drawing my eyes to his. “Your men will be with us momentarily, little mate.” Hunger rumbled through his voice. “Shall we get you warmed up for them?”

I’d no sooner nodded than he flipped me so that I was on all fours with him poised above me. His hands made quick work of my breeches, and in only a moment I was bare, my wet core exposed for the three of them to see.

Rock melted around my hands, pulling me several inches down into the earth and then reforming. Eyes wide, I looked back at Ozias, questioning.

“You’ve been testing us, little mate.” He stripped down and tossed his clothes to the side. Hard as stone, his cock stood ready. “Risking yourself over and over, when it’s our purpose to protect you.”

My mouth opened to protest.

His palm struck my ass, and I choked on a startled cry. Pain blossomed, hot and sharp.

But impossibly, my breasts and pussy tingled too.

What the?—

His palm connected again, making me gasp. “Are you done challenging our need to keep you safe?”

I couldn’t find words. Intoxicating arousal coursed through my body at the hot, dark, anddesperatelook in his eyes. I could stop this. Easily. He knew that. But that also wasn’t the point.

My mate’s dominant streak craved this claim over me. Casimir and Dex did too. All three men were alpha predators in their own right, in charge of their domains.

And each was secretly terrified of losing me.

My vampire and my soldier stalked closer, their gazes fixed on my naked body. Already, their cocks were getting hard again. Dex’s hand flexed like he couldn’t wait to turn my flesh a darker pink, while Casimir gave a low growl, the sound wild and hungry.

They needed this dominance. This submission from me, even if only in this moment.

But that didn’t mean I had to make this easy on them.

Shuddering with anticipation, I turned back to Ozias. “No.”

His growl turned my insides molten. His palm collided with my ass again. Once, twice, a third time, making my flesh burn and my hands jerk in the stone restraints.

But my hips rocked back on instinct too, my core seeking just the right impact to send me over the edge.

“I feel how much you’re enjoying this, little mate.” His hand struck again. “I think your soldier should have a turn, don’t you?”

Dex circled behind me. He drew his rough palm over my ass, cupping my soft flesh and making my skin tingle in a new way. “You remember the night you gave me your virginity? How you begged me to fuck you? How you called me sir?”

Oh gods…
