“You did, but it’s all right,” I told him. “I could feel your lust—I knew you needed me.”

“Youfeltmy lust?” Thorne’s shaggy eyebrows shot up. He really was a handsome man—he just needed a haircut. I promised myself I would see to that soon.

“It’s all right,” Finn told him. “Goldie’s half-Succubus.”

“That’s probably the only way she could take you while you were still half Shifted,” Ronan added. “You fucked her like a Bear—literally.”

“Sorry about that.” Thorne pulled out of me and I moaned, feeling suddenly empty. I relaxed on my side on the bed, the Veil still glowing faintly beneath me. Its power was almost spent—it was a one-use-only magical object, I could tell. But it had done its job and served us well.

“Are you all right, Goldie?” Finn asked anxiously.

“Yeah—are you okay?” Ronan stroked my hair away from my face.

“I’ll be fine.” I smiled up at them. “I’m just sofull.”

“Full?” Finn frowned. “What do you mean? There’s nobody, uh, in you right now.”

“I mean, I think for the first time in my life, the Succubus part of me is satiated.” I sat up and turned to look at Thorne, who was still standing at the foot of the bed. “I haveyouto thank for that. Why don’t you come up here and join us?” I patted the bed. “After all, now that the curse is broken and the four of us are Heartmates, I want to get to know you.”

“Wait…what?” Finn frowned. “Don’t we have to drink the potion to break the curse?”

“No—we just had to activate it by forming a Heartmate Bond,” I explained. “Once that happened and the three of you breathed in the steam rising from it, that’s what broke the curse.”

“Uh…and did you say allfourof us are Heartmates now?” Ronan asked.

I nodded.

“Yes—can’t you feel it? Thorne joined just before the Bond we had formed was fully sealed. You could say hecamejust in time.”

Finn groaned.

“Goldie, that’sawful.”

“Sorry.” I grinned at him unrepentantly. “I’m just so happy! You don’t know how long I’ve been hoping to find just the right men. Men who wouldn’t mind sharing me.” I looked up at Thorne. “You don’t mind, do you? Ronan and Finn are fine with it.”

“Well…” Thorne settled on the edge bed beside me. “Werebears don’t usually share mates, mostly because it’s hard for a woman to handle even one of us—let alone two.”

“Goldie can do it—her Succubus half will help,” Finn said confidently.

I shot him a smile—I loved how he understood and accepted me.

“Then if you and Ronan don’t mind, I guess I don’t either.” Thorne still looked a little disoriented. He rubbed a hand over his face. “Fuck…I feel like I was trapped in a nightmare and I woke up in a wet dream.”

Finn and Ronan and I laughed together. I could feel my guys’ delight at being all together again. Their Clan was small but tightly knit—it had hurt them to lose Thorne and now that they had him back, they felt complete again. But I wanted to assure the newest addition to our little group that he was welcome.

“This is no dream,” I said, taking Thorne’s hand. “You’re safe here. Always.”

“Thanks,” he said simply and squeezed my hand. “But I still feel kind of strange sitting here with no clothes on.”

“Oh, we don’t need clothes,” I assured him. Though I was satiated, I still felt the lust from my Succubus side stirring again. “In fact, I think it would be a very good idea if the four of us spent some time strengthening our new Heartmate Bond before we leave the Lust Hut.”

Ronan and Finn’s eyes were suddenly half-lidded with desire.

“I don’t mind,” Ronan growled and Finn nodded.

Thorne’s gaze swept over my naked body and his golden eyes were suddenly lazy with lust.

“In that case, I’m up for some more Bonding, too. This time I’d like to know what the fuck I’m doing before I wake up in the middle of doing it,” he growled.
