The last piece is almost here.

Vhex flames into the bathroom, his bare chest heaving as smoke curls off his horn.

Anger crackles from his soul.

“You—”

His lips purse, ready to unleash his favorite bat-themed curses at Remy.

He spots me first. That whole thought tree withers when he sees my boobs, rising from the bubbles.

His anger goespoofas all his heat flows south.

The tension tingles in my belly and my ass. The pleasure bounces between us.

Their cocks swell.

My thighs part.

Once it starts, it’s hard to stop.

I reach for Vhex. “Are you coming in?”

His pupils contract.

Vhex vaults into the tub that’s big enough for a group.

His tidal wave rolls me deeper into Remy’s lap and boils the water, creating his own jacuzzi whirlpool as he dives for me. Vhex crushes our mouths as he worms into my silks, hot and clinging andeverywhere.

“Fuck.” he curses against my lips. “Firefly. I’ll come anywhere you want.”

My jaw throbs in time with his fang. Remy’s thirst bites.

My heart speeds.

My body softens.

Ready to feed and be fed, to fill and be filled, I stretch to bare my throat. “Come here.”

Fangs tease my skin.

I shiver at the heat of their breath as they kiss and lick my neck, searching for the sweetest spots.

Their bites are addictive, and their touch is everything I thought I’d never have, but theirfocusis what finally melts me, leaving me trembling in their arms.

When I reach for their hands, they grab hold.

I’m not just any Guide.

I’mtheirs.

No take-backs, no returns, and absolutely no replacements.

In the empty cavern, a dusty egg sits perched on the skeleton of a dead array. A weak wave of energy rolls beneath its scales.
