“I’ve never been more certain of anything,” I breathe, watching his ocean eyes darken further.

His own desire weaves its way through our tether, all of it creating a heady combination that has heat spreading from my chest, lighting up a path in its wake, making my breasts heavy and travelling down to where each of them is touching me, holding me.

The tension in the air thickens, electric and palpable. Rad’s massive form shifts, both his hands grasping my hips where I’m still sitting, his fur brushing against my skin as he leans in closer. “Then let us worship you properly, Beholden,” he purrs, his breath hot against my neck.

On my other side, Hudson’s fingers thread through my hair, gently tilting my head back and capturing my attention. His lips hover just above mine, a question in his cerulean eyes. I close the distance, capturing his mouth in a searing kiss that sends sparks shooting through our connection.

Steo’s shadows caress my skin everywhere, around us and between all of us, leaving trails of tingling sensation in their wake. His voice is low and reverent as he murmurs, “You are our anchor, our light in this darkness.”

I gasp as Rad’s tongue traces a heated path up my neck, fangs grazing my skin, making me shudder and moan softly. His claws graze higher along my thighs, teasing but careful, intensifying my anticipation, and his chest brushes against mine, where he leans in.

Hudson’s kiss deepens, tongue teasing mine in slow, sensual strokes. His hands explore my curves, sliding up my torso to rest just under my breasts, igniting trails of fire wherever they touch. I arch into their combined attention, the warmth of their hands and mouths sending goosebumps along my skin, the soft brush of shadows and fur making it electrified.

“So responsive,” Rad growls approvingly, his voice deep and heated, vibrating through my chest. “Tell us what you want, Beholden. Let us hear your desires.”

My breathing hitches as Steo’s shadows slide around me, pulsing between my thighs, over my breasts, teasing every sensitive nerve where hands weren’t already touching. My core clenches tightly, wetness pooling embarrassingly quickly.

“Everything,” I gasp, breaking the kiss with Hudson, my voice raw, pure desire pulsing out towards them through our bond. “Yours. All of it. Take me apart.”

Their reaction is immediate.

Hudson trails hot, open-mouthed kisses down my neck, whispering praises as he moves lower. Rad’s tail tightens possessively around my thigh, sliding me down from my sitting position for better access, as his tongue teases the sensitive skin behind my ear on the other side, his claws moving upward with tantalizing slowness. Steo’s shadows wrap tighter, spreading warmth and electricity through my limbs, pulsing a steady rhythm that’s driving me wild.

Hudson’s mouth finds my breast, lips closing around a hardened peak, drawing a loud moan from me. Rad’s claws brush gently across my dripping folds, teasing my entrance, his fangs scraping gently against my collarbone.

“Fuck,” I gasp, arching helplessly between them, my hips shifting eagerly towards Rad’s teasing touch. Every caress sends a shiver through me, making me ache for more.

Hudson hums against my skin as his tongue circles and flicks my nipple, the pleasure shooting straight to my core. His hands glide down my sides, gripping my waist and holding me steady, possessively pulling me closer to his mouth.

Rad growls low and deep, nipping lightly at my collarbone as his thick finger slowly pushes inside me, careful not to hurt but possessive enough to stake his claim. My walls clench immediately around him, slick and needy, the buzz of power and the strumming of our bond intensifying each sensation. I didn’t understand why I always responded to their touch the way I did before, now I know that my body was simply answering the call of our tether.

“So fucking wet for us,” he rumbles, voice dripping with appreciation and hunger. His thumb brushes my sensitive bundle of nerves in slow, deliberate circles, stealing the breath from my lungs.

Steo’s shadows softly caress my inner thighs, my hips, brushing teasingly across my swollen clit, matching Rad’s rhythm and making me squirm. His growl reverberates through the shadows themselves, vibrating deep within my body. I look up to find him still sitting by my head, his orange eyes glowing with intensity, watching and waiting, while his shadows swallow every once of lust pouring out of me.

“My Snow Pea,” he murmurs, voice like velvet darkness, the pink tendrils pressing and sliding along every inch of skin they can reach, adding their cool, electric contrast to Rad and Hudson’s burning heat.

Hudson lifts his head from my breast, pulling my attention back to him, his lips swollen and eyes blazing with need that echoes in my chest. “You’re gorgeous like this, Parker,” he breathes, pressing another kiss to my chest, my throat, my jaw. His hands roam down to grip my thighs, gently spreading them wider with the help of shadows, exposing me further to Rad’s exploring touch.

Rad chuckles darkly, sliding another finger inside me, stretching me gently, drawing another helpless whimper from my throat. “She’s perfect. Absolutely fucking perfect,” he growls possessively, his glowing eyes now locked onto mine as he hits a spot that makes stars burst across my vision.

Steo’s shadows pulse and ripple, one sliding smoothly around my throat, offering a gentle yet firm pressure that makes pleasure bloom fiercely, turning me into a trembling, needy mess. “Look at you,” Steo purrs against my ear, voice husky with lust, shadows pulsing against my clit in perfect rhythm with Rad’s fingers. “So responsive. So beautiful. So very ours.”

Rad removes his fingers slowly, making me whine in protest, but only until he lifts them to his mouth, licking them clean with a satisfied growl. The heat in his gaze is scorching, nearly enough to set me aflame.

“Delicious,” he purrs, his voice a dark, rich promise. “But not nearly enough.”

Before I can process his words, Rad shifts downward, positioning himself between my trembling thighs. His massive hands grip my hips, pulling me closer and leaning in with a possessive urgency that makes heat flood my core.

“You’re ours to worship,” Rad murmurs, his hot breath ghosting across my sensitive skin, sending sparks racing through my veins and bright power though the burrow, casting a pink glow.

My breath catches sharply as his long tongue slowly drags over my pussy, tasting me thoroughly, deliberately. My body jerks in response, hips bucking instinctively toward his mouth, seeking more of the fiery pleasure he offers.

“Oh, fuck,” I moan, my fingers instinctively wrapping around the thick horns curling from his head. They’re solid and warm, grounding me in the intensity of the moment as I hold on tight. The tickle of his fur on my skin only adds to the intensity of sensations, providing a contrast that shoots pleasant sparks down my spine.

Rad hums appreciatively against my slick center, the vibration sending electric currents straight through me. His tongue delves deeper, exploring and teasing, coaxing more moans from my lips. His eyes, glowing like diamonds, lock onto mine, satisfaction and hunger blending into a fierce, possessive look that makes my thighs quiver.

Hudson watches, eyes dark with lust, his hand gently gripping my throat with the help of the shadow still wrapped there, urging me to surrender completely. “Ride him, Parker. Let him feel how badly you need it. Go ahead and tame your demon.”
