Rik gave me inch by inch, more of his weight, until he was finally ballsdeep.
I twitched between them, though I could barely move. They didn’t have to thrust; they breathed, and it shifted me, higher and lower, their dicks stirring inside me. Pressure built inside me. I couldn’t breathe. I didn’t have room in my body for air. Not when they filled every corner ofme.
:Ready?:Rik asked. His bond glowed like the hottestforge.
My heart thudded. My thoughts had slowed. My brain incapable of words. All I could manage was a deep, “mmmm.”
He sank his fangs into my shoulder, gripping the top of that muscle like a leopard taking his mate. G took mythroat.
My blood erupted like a volcano. They both groaned against my skin, their hunger surging through our bonds. I fed them. I gave them power. Rik’s rock troll swelled inside him, ever bigger, badder, a nightmare for anything or anyone who threatened me. G’s stallion screamed a warning into the night, the thunder of his hooves rumbling theground.
I soared in a night sky. Twirling, wings furled like black velvet to catch the soft sighingwind.
It took me awhile to find my way back tothem.
G’s face softened when I opened my eyes. “There you are, myqueen.”
Rik had shifted us so we all lay on our sides. He had my back, as always, his nose pressed to the hollow beneath myear.
I yawned so hard my jaw ached. “Is Daire okay? I can’t believe we didn’t wake himup.”
“He’s still alive,” Rik said, his voice tinged with amusement. “Though he’ll be pissed when he realizes what he missed in themorning.”
G tucked my face up beneath his chin. “I think perhaps you should skip feeding from him tomorrow, myqueen.”
I felt the ragged scar ringing his throat against my cheek, and it made me want to cry. I couldn’t believe he’d endured that kind of horror. That someone had actually cut his head off. And he’dlived.
“I lived so I could be here withyou.”

Daire
“Why the fuckdidn’t one of you kick me in the head and wake me up?” I growled at Guillaume, pacing back and forth in the kitchen. “I can’t believe you motherfuckers were menaging right there beside me and I didn’t hear athing.”
“I’ll kick you next time.” He laughed. “Though it might not be in thehead.”
Fucking hell. I wasn’t mad exactly. Or even jealous. I just wanted to be a part of everything she did. I wanted to wallow in her pleasure as much as her blood, even if she didn’t touch me at all. I would have still felt everything sheenjoyed.
Pain splintered through the bond so viciously I dropped the coffee carafe in the sink.Rik.I raced for the stairs, Guillaume behind me. I hoped he had some blades on him because the fuck if I knew where my ketars were.:What’swrong?:
He didn’t answer. When I threw open the bedroom door, I sawwhy.
A gigantic hooded black cobra had wound around him. Her coils were as big as Rik’s thighs, and that was not something to sneeze at. She hissed and bared vicious knife-long fangs, making me flinch back against thewall.
“Well, I guess her fangs have come in,”Guillaume saidmildly.
I would have given him a look likedude, are you fucking crazy? But I was afraid if I looked away, she’d drag me into her coils too. There were a lot of ways I’d willingly die for my queen, but squeezed to death or eaten by a cobra was surprisingly not too high on the motherfuckinglist.
“No,” Rik gasped. “Stay back. It’s allright.”
“The fuck it’s all right,” I retorted. “I feel yourpain.”
“Pain. Okay.” He took shallow breaths, because that’s all her coils would allow. “Don’t hurther.”
Guillaume raised his hands and softly crooned to her. “All is well, my queen. No one will take him fromyou.”
She swayed, watching him a few moments. But as soon as he took a step toward her, her hood flared wide, revealing a ruby-red diamond against her black scales, and she scooted back against the wall, dragging Rik withher.
