Bones slides a hand underneath me and pushes two fingers inside my ass. “I love how fucking tight you are, baby girl.”

Nox plays with my nipples, pinching and scratching them without mercy. “Unfold for us. Surrender.”

Draven shoves his cock into my mouth. “Swallow it all, Trouble. Choke on me.”

I blink back tears as he stretches me. I’m being teased and groped from all angles. It’s a dark ecstasy meant only for us. A sinful melody that only we know the notes to. I cum over and over again as they take turns filling me and each other.

Nox rolls me onto my stomach and pulls me to my knees. “Let me show you what she begs me for.”

He thrusts one of his cock heads in my pussy and the other in my ass.

Aries rubs my back. “Ooh, fuck. Thatta girl. Rock your hips back and forth.”

I whine and whimper as they slide their hands all over me. Bones forces his cock in my mouth. “Let’s cum together,” he tells Nox.

I feel his claws digging into my ass. Draven and Aries play with the outside of my pussy while Nox’s cock head pierces me inside. I sway back and forth between Nox and Bones. I’m almost to the point of blacking out when another orgasm takes furious hold of my body. I twist and writhe against Nox’s massive frame.

Bones pinches my chin. “Breathe through your nose, little lamb.” A burst of hot cum fills my mouth. “Mmm,” I moan and swallow it down like it’s holy water.

Nox slaps my ass, shattering me again. He lets out a scream as he cums inside me.

We collapse how we are, in a heap of tangled limbs and heaving chests.

Whole. Sacred. Bonded to each other for life.

And when I finally fall asleep against their arms and legs, for the first time, I don’t dream. I stay right here with them. No more nightmares. Just sleep.

There is darkness in all things. Some more than others. Twisted, rotting things that snake through your bones and take a hold of your soul. Monsters that crawl up from under your bed and slide between your sheets. These monsters have staked their claim on me. And they are all mine. Forever.

An eternity of Nox…

And Bones. And Draven. And Aries.

Even with the curse looming over my head, we’ll find a way to stay together.

Like poison, they’ve seeped into my veins. They are my addiction. My obsession. There is no cure for them. I belong to them like the moon belongs to the night.

Lost and found between the Wishing Trees.

DRAVEN

Gunpowder perches on Nox’s shoulder. He gently strokes the raven’s feathers as he gazes out at the fields of baneberry. The wind is warm for the first time in months, signaling the end of winter.

From inside Harker Mansion, the sound of maniacal laughter rings out. Mia has been trying to teach Aries and Bones how to paint. They suck at it and it’s the most amusing thing she’s ever seen. I chuckle every time Bones curses at the canvas in Spanish, and Aries throws his paintbrush to the floor like a child having a temper tantrum.

Mia knows I can’t sit still long enough so luckily I dodged that bullet. I have no desire to pick up a paintbrush. Besides, I’ve been too busy staffing her house and watching over the poison fields. I’ve always been the more serious one out of the three of us, anyway.

Now that things have settled, I’ve been urging Bones and Aries to have more fun. I’ve kept them suffocated in my darkness for so long, it’s only fair that they finally getto exhale.

“Take off your clothes,” Nox murmurs.

I’m so lost in my own thoughts, I don’t realize he’s watching me until now. “Excuse me?” We’ve fucked each other senseless in the last few weeks but it’s the middle of the afternoon and we’re outside. A dozen or so workers harvest the fields just a few yards away from us.

“You need to relax. It’s a beautiful day. Take off your shirt and pants and come sit by me.” He pats the spot next to him on the stone bench.

I’m dumbfounded. My suits are my armor. “Don’t be ridiculous. I’m not as big of an exhibitionist as you are.”

He laughs. “Flowers cannot grow without sunlight. You’re shielding yourself from demons that live inside you. Not out. Take off your clothes so you can feel the wind at your bare back. Scrunch your toes in the grass.”
