A fiery burn seared his arm, but Phillip didn’t care. His gaze was locked on his mates’ arms. They were each given a unique sleeve. Victor’s had Phillip’s dragon in flight in addition to the Order of the Fallen Knights’ shield for Keegan. A perfect replica of Phillip’s dagger was on his forearm, and he had Keegan’s name in block letters near his shoulder. Any remaining space was decorated in skulls.
Keegan’s artwork was like Victor’s, but instead of the shield, he had a gorgeous Russian Blue wearing a tiara. Victor’s name also flowed across in his skin in a lovely script.
As for Phillip, he lacked the dragon, but he had a cat and a shield. He also had a dagger, but it was Keegan’s. Like his mates, he also had a smattering of macabre skulls perfect for a matebond with two undead guys.
“I need to shop,” Victor said.
“Good thing Phillip and I wear uniforms so you’ll have room in our closet for all your new sleeveless tops,” Keegan mused.
“It is also a good thing he looks beautiful in everything,” Phillip commented.
“Kiss already so we can have some cake,” Dra’Kaedan yelled.
“Dra’Kaedan!” shouted his mother, Lichpriestess Saura D’Vaire.
Phillip laughed as the Grand Warlock teleported away a second later.
“He’s going to miss out,” Victor said. “We picked blue velvet for one of the layers in his honor.”
“You did forget to kiss,” Alaric remarked.
Victor cupped Phillip’s face in his hands and brushed their lips together in a feather-soft caress. A second later, he did the same to Keegan. Wearing a smile, Phillip touched his mouth to Keegan’s.
“Thank you to the High Kings and everyone at D’Vaire for allowing Keegan, Victor, and I to have our ceremony here today. Your land is special, and we hope that enchantment aids us as we share our eternity together,” Phillip said to their guests. “And we are also grateful to Alaric, Chander, and every Daray for being with us on our journey. Your support has aided us, and I need to add a special thank you to everyone who helped me navigate the treacherous path my dragon and I started on. Without your help, I doubt I would be standing here today sharing my life with a kind beast and the two most wonderful men alive.”
“I love you,” Keegan said.
“I adore you both so damn much,” Victor added as he used his free hand to brush away tears.
“You both own my heart,” Phillip added as his dragon growled in triumph.
Their bond was close to being complete. Neither man nor dragon could wait until nightfall.
Chapter 32
The moment Victor and his mates had escaped to their bedroom at the D’Vaire mansion, he’d run into the bathroom. It hadn’t been easy to squeeze in a sewing project while they were planning their ceremony, but Victor had managed it, and he quickly slipped off his clothes to don his creation. Once he was naked, a lovely swell of desire rushed through him as he plucked his new nightshirt out of the drawer where he’d stuck it the previous day.
Thanks to the plethora of options online, Victor had found a sheer sparkly fabric, and he’d known it was perfect for the night he and his kitty would bite his men. Victor carefully tugged it over his head and let it fall into place. The front poked out a bit thanks to his growing hardness, but Victor couldn’t help it. In the next room were two gorgeous men, and he planned on spending his night romping in their gigantic bed with them.
Since it’d been a request from Phillip weeks ago, Victor plucked his tiara out of his bag and carefully set it on his spiky hairdo. Eager to get started on bites, Victor left the bathroom and immediately noticed that Keegan and Phillip hadn’t been idle in his absence. Their boots and socks were off and their weapons stashed in the nightstand.
“Come here, Sparkles,” Phillip invited, his dark gaze warm with lust and affection.
Victor did a little twirl as he walked to his mates and laughed as both men whistled.
“I love your nightshirt. It matches your tiara perfectly,” Keegan enthused, reaching a hand under Victor’s shirt to cup his bare ass.
“Do not get distracted, Sunshine,” Phillip stated. “We have a surprise for you too, Victor.”
Delighted, Victor grinned. “I hope it’s sheer sparkling nighties.”
Phillip tugged off his T-shirt, and Keegan mirrored his action a heartbeat later.
“I am afraid we were not creative enough to come up with the same idea,” Phillip said.
“Which is a good thing because we wouldn’t look half as sexy as you do,” Keegan added.
“Show me the surprise,” Victor pleaded. He and his dick appreciated the firm bellies and broad shoulders in front of him, and he wanted to get started with the touching part of the night.
