The closest one has dark blonde hair, slicked back, and intense, light-brown eyes. His black suit enhances the tight muscles of his frame; the vest, jacket, and tie would look stuffy on anyone else. The chain with a locket and the combat boots only add to his powerful effect. Even though he is completely covered, his tattoos peek out of the neck of his shirt, and his hands are covered in ink. I stare at his watch, thinking it’s about fucking time I get a mate. As if in slow motion, he leans over the desk, his hands braced on the surface, and wraps his mouth around my sucker. My numb fingers easily give it up without a fight. I stare at his mouth as he sucks in his cheeks for a moment before using his tongue to place the treat in his cheek.

Dazed, I turn my head when I feel fingers tracing the straps on my ankles. He’s bigger than the other vampire. His hair is a lighter blonde, longer on top and short on the sides. His eyes are brown, too, but darker, with long, dark eyelashes. His hands are ink-free, and I can’t tell if he has any under his clothes. He isn’t wearing a tie, and the white dress shirt is blinding underneath his black leather vest, black pants, and black boots. Thick leather cuffs cup his wrists, and I think about the dirty things he could do with them. He smells like the leather he wears. His finger strays from the strap, grazing my skin, and my mouth snaps shut. I swallow harshly because I know they can smell how wet I am. They could both pick me up with one hand, and that image causes makes my body temperature rise.

“Little Bunny. You are mine.” My eyes connect with the man at my feet.

“And mine.”

I turn to the other.

“It’s good we learned to share our toys as children, Luca,” the vampire at my feet says.

“Good thing,” Luca mumbles.

“Your name?” I rasp, twisting my foot and capturing his finger under my strap.

“Rabbit has tricks, Atlas,” Luca says. I lick my lips and watch the candy rotate to the other side of Luca’s mouth. “You gonna show us another, Tricks?”

Pulling my foot free, I carefully stand, paying no attention to the papers that fall to the floor, and lean over the desk. Reaching over, I carefully pull the sucker from Luca’s mouth, and he touches his tongue to his fang. I take a long, slow lick, once, twice, and watch his eyes narrow as he stares at my mouth. A cool hand glides over my hip and stops in the middle of my back. Atlas leans close.

“Keep teasing,” he grits out. “We’ll bend you over the desk and fuck you right here. We won’t care about the bear walking in.” I press my lips around the candy and tilt my head toward him. He lifts his hand and pulls the stick. Giving up the candy game, he gently rubs it over my bottom lip. “You smell like cherries.” He drops his hand, throwing the candy on the desk. “And not because of that. Makes us want to taste. Luca, do you want to taste cherries?”

“I want more than a taste,” Luca growls.

“Mmm…” Atlas grazes his thumb across my lip and licks his finger. “Delicious.”

“You don’t know me, but when you do,” I start, standing straight and stepping back. “I don’t fuck in front of anyone but the person I am with. Quinn would definitely not enjoy it. I appreciate your wish for a taste, but I didn’t give my permission yet. I can imagine both of you taste like sin.”

“What’s your name, Little Bunny?” Atlas asks.

“Why? Are you going to use it?” I sass.

He shrugs. “Maybe.” Luca suddenly appears behind me, pressing against my back. He rubs his cheek over my hair, his mouth at my ear.

It would decrease my badass status if I passed out from extreme desire.

“Fuck, this is going to be fun, Tricks,” he rumbles.

Sweet Jesus.

“Sally,” Quinn snaps. I missed him returning, so wrapped up in my vampires. Shit. Not mine. Yet. “Come here.” The vibe in the room registers. “Now.”

“I will kill you if you touch her,” Luca states.

“What the fuck? Who are you?” Quinn takes a step. “Sally, step away.” I don’t want them to freak out, so I move away from Luca, closer to Quinn, but still close enough to the vampires.

“We came to speak with you. Shade sent us,” Atlas replies, moving toward me.

“Sally is our mate,” Luca says, narrowing his eyes. When a vampire finds his mate, they have very little restraint. It’s unknown how the two of them will act. I can tell they don’t listen to demands easily. When Micah met Daisy, he didn’t want her out of his sight. He claimed her and moved her into his place minutes after.

“Fuck.” Quinn drops his head back. “This is going to be bad,” he whispers to the ceiling. “You're willing to share her?” He straightens, looking between Atlas and Luca.

“Yes,” Atlas says, grabbing my hand as I try to pass him. “I share everything with my brother.”

“Brothers,” I gasp, my fingers tightening. “Blood brothers.” I look between them. They do look similar, but it’s rare for vampires to have a biological family. My curiosity is overriding my need to calm the situation. I did not expect to meet my matestoday or ever. I thought my time was past. My feelings are a tangled mess in my gut. I can’t deny it, and I don’t really want to.

“We were turned at the same time,” Luca says, stepping beside Atlas. “We didn’t expect to meet our mate today.”

“What’s the case?” Quinn asks as he pulls out his phone.
