“Don’t ever do that again,” he mumbles against the crown of my head. “I’ve never been so scared in my entire life.”

Chapter Thirteen

What A Mess

Sebastian

The next hours are a blur of people. Julian reported the break-in and death of Marco to the authorities and soon one of the council members showed up. He gave us one look before turning to our mate.

“You did this?” he asks.

Harlow nods even though we told her she didn’t have to tell anyone about her dragon. She stands tall as she tells the council member the truth.

“He was trying to hurt me. He hurt my mate.”

Pride surges through me as I watch her. She is more than we could ever have wished for. Honest, brave, loving. She will make us whole, and she will be a wonderful mother to any young we might have in the future.

“I knew there would be more,” the official mumbles stabbing at his phone. “Stay here,” he commands all three of us before walking away while talking to someone on his phone.

“What do you think that is about?” I ask Julian.

“No idea. But I’ll kill the next person that tries to take Harlow away from us.”

She wraps her arms around my brother’s middle, staring up at him. “No one can keep us apart except me. Remember?”

“I do, little one,” he says placing a kiss on her lips. “And I will make sure of it.”

We are waiting in silence for the official to return. It only takes a few minutes before he comes back into view, shaking his head.

“My men will clear out the body. Liam Viagro and his mate Seline will be here tomorrow. She is dying to meet you,”he says directly to Harlow. “Something about not being able to make friends when you’re one of a kind.” He chuckles before shaking both our hands and then he walks away.

“Was that strange?” Harlow asks. “I feel like it was a little too easy.”

“Being a law-abiding citizen should be easy, little one,” Julian says with a chuckle. “I think you’ve been spending too much time with criminals.”

I laugh at their easy banter, finally able to breathe easy. Harlow smiles at me, and I get lost in her for a moment.

“Can we go to bed now?”

My Mates

Harlow

After the day and night we had, the three of us fall into bed together and promptly fall asleep. I fully intended to get my mates to fuck me senseless so I could forget Marco was ever here but that wasn’t meant to be.

I wake first, though. Bas is behind me, his arm resting across my hip. Julian is lying next to me on his back, his erection tenting the sheet that has slipped down his torso to lie on his hips. Both are naked as am I. Julian insisted we all needed to be skin to skin, even if we weren’t going to have sex.

Slowly, I lift the sheet off and stare at the appendage I have never taken the time to admire. He is long, maybe nine inches and thick. I’ve had him inside me and I’m only now looking at him.

I reach out to touch him but pull my hand back not wanting to wake him. From behind, Sebastian takes my hand and guides me to his bother’s cock, he adjusts my grip until I am almost violent with his brother’s penis before removing his handto place it on my breast.

“That is fucking hot,” he murmurs in my ear as his sleeping twin thrusts up into my grasp. “I can smell your pussy growing slick as you play with Julian.”

“Bas,” I whimper, pushing my ass against his erection.

“No, baby,” he says, halting my movements with a grip on my hips. “I want to watch.”
