“Need some company?”

I smile and turn heading for the bathroom. Just as I reach the door, I glance over my shoulder, catching both of their heated looks burning a trail down my body. “If either of you come with me, none of us will be showering.”

Jax’s smirk is savage as he steps closer, his cock already hard and ready. “I see no problem there.”

“We’ll be quick. It can be our first quickie.” He moves closer, blinking down at me, his expression shifting to an innocent look on his face.

I shake my head at him, still smiling. “I doubt anything would be quick with you.”

Jax nods his head with an attempt to look serious slashed across his face. “True. I’m not a one-hit wonder like Axel.”

Axel growls, making his way over to us. “What the hell is that supposed to mean? I made her cum so hard she fucking creamed me.”

And… now I’m wet again.

Jax scoffs. “That was obviously a fluke.”

Axel clenches his jaw as Jax raises a brow. Neither willing to give in. The glint of challenge in both of their eyes makes me slowly take a step back as I try to slip into the bathroom. But my slight movement doesn’t go unnoticed as a double pair of eyes veer toward me, both of my men wearing savage smirks that slowly slide across their faces, making me shiver.

“Princess…”

“Baby…” Jax moves so fast, he has me over his shoulder and into the bathroom.

Axel follows behind us wearing a wicked smirk. “Might as well make you nice and dirty before you get clean.”

Fuck. I guess we were going to be a bit longer, after all.

CHAPTER 2

Moving through the lounge,I head toward the kitchen, the smell of fresh coffee hitting me. The pot is still steaming, so I know one of my mates must have made it recently.

I pour myself a cup and head over to the window. The clouds are dark and gloomy as they cast shadows on the city below, with each one threatening to rain.

There’s no one out. Not a single soul.

The entire city went into lockdown as soon as we could push back the demons, with a barrier placed around the border hoping to stop them from getting in.

So far, it’s been holding up. But for how long?

We have groups of supes going out on patrols to ensure nothing is getting past our defenses. And so far, nothing has. But the last couple of days, it’s been quiet.

Too quiet.

Like the calm before a storm. That peacefulness that settles over you just as everything goes still. But you know the worst is still to come. You can feel it as it rises up from somewhere deep inside you, telling you it’s only starting.

And when it does, nothing but complete chaos will be unleashed.

I just hope we all make it safely to the other side of this.

Shaking off my turbulent thoughts, I reach out to each of my mates. Their lights so much brighter in my mind than the supes around them.

Ever since I let go and opened up more to my abilities, I can sense their whereabouts whenever they’re not beside me. It soothes something inside me, knowing I can find them when I need to.

Like a tether that binds us, instincts take over and I zone in on each of them.

Kai, Axel and Jax are still in the building, with Rion and Luka still out in the city, but close by.

Another connection pulls at the corner of my mind, right before the shadow beast appears.
