“Four," I heard Antonius call out with obvious satisfaction, and I couldn't help but laugh breathlessly against Jalend's shoulder. The sound echoed through the stone chamber, mixing with the crackle of the fire and the soft murmur of voices around us.
"Still keeping score?" I asked, though I was too sated to put any real protest in my voice.
"Someone has to," Sirrax rumbled from somewhere nearby, amusement threading through his deep voice. "Though I suspect we'll lose count before the night is through."
Jalend pressed a soft kiss to my lips before carefully withdrawing from me. I whimpered at the loss, my body still sensitive and wanting despite everything that had already happened. Strong hands helped me sit up, and I found myself looking into Sirrax's golden eyes as he knelt beside me on the rug.
"Hello, bondmate," he said, his voice carrying that predatory edge that never failed to make my stomach flutter with anticipation. "Are you ready for me?"
I nodded, not trusting my voice. Even after four climaxes, the sight of him in the firelight—all golden skin and lean muscle—made my mouth go dry with want. He was still magnificent in human form, but there was something about the way he moved, the barely contained power in every gesture, that reminded of his beast form and it sent pleasant shivers down my spine. Sirraxlooked every inch the predator he was, his golden gaze tracking my every movement with the focused intensity of a dragon who had found something he wanted to devour.
He lay back, stretching out over the rug and I crawled over him, dipping my head down to run my tongue over the head of his cock. He was too big to take inside my mouth, so I focused on licking and sucking what I could fit, letting my saliva coat him thoroughly while my hands worked over the rest of his impressive length.
"Enough," he growled after several long minutes, his hands gentle but firm as he lifted me away from him. "Need to be inside you, mate. Now."
He guided me over him, his hands spanning my waist as I positioned myself above his cock. Even after everything that had happened tonight, the stretch as I sank down onto him made me gasp. He was so much larger than the others, and my body had to work to accommodate him, but the sensation was incredible—that perfect fullness that only he could provide.
"That's it," he rumbled, his golden eyes never leaving mine as I slowly took him deeper. "Take all of me."
I could only moan in response, my hands braced against his chest as I fought to accommodate him. The sensation was overwhelming—not painful, but so intense it bordered on too much. When I was finally seated completely on him, we both went still, breathing hard as my body adjusted.
The connection between us flared to life, that magical bond that let me feel his pleasure mixing with mine until I couldn't tell where I ended and he began.
Through the bond, I felt his overwhelming satisfaction at having me like this—claiming me while the others watched, marking me as his in the most primal way possible. But underneath that possessiveness was something softer, deeper. Love. Devotion. The fierce protectiveness of a dragon who hadclaimed his mate and would burn the world before letting anyone harm her.
I began to move, lifting myself up before sinking back down, finding a rhythm that made us both groan. His hands guided my hips, helping me ride him as pleasure built between us like a gathering storm.
"Mine," he growled.
"Yes," I breathed, my hands bracing against his chest as I moved over him. "Always yours."
Through our bond, I could feel his primal satisfaction at claiming me like this, but also something deeper—a love so fierce and protective it took my breath away. I rode him harder, chasing the pleasure that built between us like wildfire. His hands guided my movements, helping me find the perfect angle that made stars burst behind my closed eyelids. The sounds filling the room were intoxicating—my breathless moans, his deep growls, the wet slide of our bodies moving together.
"Close," I gasped, feeling my climax building like a storm in my blood. "Sirrax, I'm so close..."
"Look at me," he commanded, his golden eyes blazing in the firelight. "I want to see your face when you come on my cock."
The combination of his touch and his words shattered me completely. I threw my head back and cried out as pleasure crashed through me, my body convulsing around him as wave after wave of sensation rolled through my body.
“Five,” came a deep voice nearby.
A hand brushed my hair back from my face, fingers trailing down my neck to cup one of my breasts. I gasped at the additional sensation, my body already so stimulated that even the gentlest touch sent shockwaves through me.
“Did you forget me, little one,” whispered Antonius, sinking to his knees behind me.
I whimpered at the press of his cock against my ass. He was no dragon, but of my human mates, Antonius was by far the biggest and the idea of them both inside me was daunting.
"I don't know if I can," I whispered, even as my body betrayed me by clenching around Sirrax in anticipation.
"You can," Antonius murmured against my ear, his voice full of dark promise. "Your body was made for this, made to take all of us. And I've been patient long enough."
I felt the press of slick fingers first, working me open with patient care while Sirrax remained still inside me, his golden eyes watching my face intently through our bond.
"Breathe for me," Antonius said softly, his voice carrying that diplomatic smoothness that somehow made everything sound reasonable, even this. "That's it, just relax."
I tried to focus on breathing as he worked a second finger inside me, then a third. The stretch burned in the best possible way, and I could feel myself growing wetter around Sirrax despite having just climaxed. Through our bond, I felt his rumble of satisfaction at my body's response.
"Please," I whispered, not even sure what I was begging for anymore. My body felt like it was on fire, caught between pleasure and desperation as they worked together to prepare me. The dragon beneath me growled low in his chest, the vibration traveling through my body where we were joined.
