Lake’s mouth tentatively met mine as his arms came around my waist. He kissed me while Briar kissed Maddox. It was so damn perfect the way the four of us fit together.
And then, I heard a rustling of clothes.
“I…” Lake panted against the top of my shoulder. A frustrated little sound left him. “Is it all right if I…”
Oh my god.The change I’d picked up on earlier while in the kitchen hadn’t been just in my head. Lake no longer felt like the outsider looking in on us. He viewed himself as part of our unit. Our family. And he was finally comfortable enough around them to be intimate. Vulnerable.
“Yes,” I said in a rush. “One million percent, yes, it’s okay. I’d love it if you did. Gimme.”
“Knight?” Lake leaned forward to look down at Maddox. “May I join you?”
Maddox’s heavy-lidded eyes lifted to Lake. He had one hand buried in the back of Briar’s brown hair and the other on my hip, his thick cock pulsing inside of me.
Would he say no? He and Briar had fallen in love over the months, but neither of them had been romantically—or sexually—affectionate toward Lake. They accepted him as my lover but not as theirs. Agreeing to Lake’s request would breach that barrier for the first time, forcing them to get abitcloser than they ever had before.
Whatever he decided, I would respect it. I’d never ask any of them to do something they weren’t comfortable with.
A trace of a smile landed on Maddox’s lips. “Took you long enough, wolf.” His blue eyes moved to Briar. “Will you help?”
“Of course.”
“Help?” Lake pulled back a little. “What are you—”
“He means to help Evan,” Briar clarified. “So it doesn’t hurt him. I can use magic to ease any discomfort.”
Lake relaxed, no longer in flight mode. He still had his limits. He’d been all right with Briar petting his hair earlier, but I guess one of them touching him in a sexual way was still a very hard no.
Double penetration was fucking incredible. Briar and Maddox had taken me at the same time countless times. However, like Maddox, Lake was… uh, very blessed. Briar’s magical touch would be much appreciated.
Once at my side, Briar kissed my jaw and skimmed his fingers down my ribs and belly before curving around to my back. Warmth radiated from his palm, and a euphoria-like sensation took me over.
I sighed and rocked my hips, taking Maddox deeper and intensifying that euphoria. A shaky whimper left me, and Briar smiled against my cheek. I met his hazel eyes. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome, love.” He rubbed up and down my spine. “Do you feel good?”
“Mhm.” The sound came out like a moan as Maddox pumped his hips up.
“Perfect. No pain. Only pleasure.” Briar captured my lips in a sweet kiss before looking at Lake. “Whenever you’re ready.”
Anticipation. Excitement. A high like I’d never felt. I attuned myself to Lake in our special way. I couldn’t sense his emotions like he could with mine, but I sensedhim. The scent of peaches and spring water. As he pressed closer, the heavy beating of his heart passed through my flesh and bones and reached my own heart. They danced to a rhythm only we could feel.
Lake kissed my nape and slowly ground against me, pressing his thumb against the top of my crack. I was already stretched, so I took his thumb easily. A throaty snarl escaped him. One that spoke of his impatience. His need. As he guided hiscock forward, the swollen head dripped precum. Oozed, really, providing a nice bit of lubrication as he then seated himself inside of me.
Maddox groaned.
“Not fair,” I said through my own moan. “I worked so hard, but Lake’s the one who broke your silence.”
Lake made a rough sound in his throat. Like a growl mixed with a laugh. He slowly pumped his hips back and forth, and more sounds fell from his lips.
I reveled in those sounds. Reveled in everything: Lake’s hands on my waist while Maddox’s fingertips dug into the tops of my thighs, the delicious, tingling pressure from having them both inside me, and the way Briar’s hazel eyes darkened as he watched.
I didn’t want him to just watch though.
“Briar.” I reached for him, and as his hand slipped into mine, I tugged him closer, claiming his lips. He smiled against my mouth.
Now, it was perfect. The four of us together. Kissing, touching, and soaring. Burning with desire and need. Aching with it.
I lowered my hand to Briar’s cock and gave him a slow pull, loving the breathy moan he emitted against my lips. When he took mine in his grasp, I echoed that moan. The smoothness of his palm as he stroked me from root to tip, combined with Lake and Maddox alternating their thrusts to match rhythms, had me so close to orgasm already. One hard cock pounded my prostate, withdrew, and then the other followed suit.
