“Nothing will keep us apart again,” he says roughly.

“Never,” I echo with a swallow. “I love you.”

He stills, his blue eyes flaring. “I’ve waited to hear those words from your lips for so long.”

“I love you. I love you, I love you.” The words won’t stop coming, tinged with emotion after being locked up inside me, waiting and wishing to be let out for someone that loves me back.

I have the connection I’ve always longed for with my demons.

Valerian strokes my hair. “You are the only reason I exist, Lily. To love you for all eternity.”

A whimper escapes me and I crash against him. He fists my hair and captures my mouth in a scorching kiss.I love you, he says reverently in my mind.

I grew up an orphan desperately aching to be loved. I never imagined I’d have three fated mates that match me so perfectly.

The room fills with my favorite scents. Woodsmoke and charcoal. Campfire roasted chestnut and maple. Rich, spiced hickory. And my own cinnamon scent dances with each of theirs. I want to be as connected to them as our scents are, the bond urging me on.

Alder strips out of his drenched sweatpants while Valerian stops kissing me long enough to divest his clothes, then tugs me back against him. Air rushes past my lips in anticipation. We don’t need to say anything, not even through Valerian pushing thoughts into our heads. We all ride the tidal wave of desire crashing over us.

“We’ll break the bed if we all climb on,” Matthias says.

“Hold her up,” Valerian suggests.

Alder peels my wet shirt off, baring me for them. Three leers drink me in. The wet shirt plops to the floor as Alder cups my breasts from behind me.

He bends and guides my arms around his neck. “Hold tight.”

I do as he says and he stands tall, lifting me by my thighs. He opens my legs, and Valerian and Matthias freeze, their hot gazes dragging over me. Every time they look at me like that, I feel like the most gorgeous woman in existence.

“Fuck, I love the sight of you spread like that.” Matthias discards his pants and fists his cock. “You’re the most beautiful vision, petal.”

“Agreed.” Valerian strokes the insides of my thighs. “So soft and perfect.”

“Fuck me,” I beg. “Someone. Please.”

They chuckle and Alder’s grip flexes on my legs. Valerian nips at my lips and glides the tip of his cock through my slick folds. I strain my hips, but Alder won’t let me have what I want.

“Please.”

“You want my cock, little flower?” Vale rumbles.

My lashes flutter and I tip my head back on Alder’s shoulder. “I need you inside me. I want all of you.” A sharp cry escapes me when he stops teasing me and thrusts inside. “Yes. Please.”

“We’ve got you,” Matthias croons in my ear.

“You want all of us?” Alder murmurs.

I nod, gasping as Valerian pulls back and snaps his hips, filling me to the brim. My nipples tighten with a sweet ache. Matthias hums, playing with them.

“Give her to me,” Vale orders. “Matthias, open her ass for Alder.”

“With pleasure,” Matthias says in a sinful tone.

A moan slips out of me as Alder guides my legs around Valerian’s waist and lets him support me, his cock sinking deeper with every hard thrust. I cling to his shoulders, my nails digging into his inked skin. Matthias’ touch skates down my spine, sending tingles straight to my core with the sparks buzzing in his fingers from his power. Just as he did earlier, he teases my ass, circling my hole. My pussy clenches on Valerian’s cock and he groans, gathering me closer.

Matthias spreads my cheeks. “Spit, big guy. Let’s get her nice and wet for you.”

Alder kisses his way down my back as he bends and instead of spitting, his tongue drags across my tight hole. A throb pulses in my core and my breath hitches.
