So, her heart was big enough for all of us. I had to process a lot today, and I hadn’t gotten to the part about sharing her. I was just so excited she wanted to stay. She was already half in my lap, so I just picked her up and placed her the rest of the way there. She was soaking wet and covered in soot, but I didn’t care. She wrapped her arms around my neck and nuzzled my chest with her cheek.
“You want to stay here? What about your family and your clinic?”
“I don’t think I can go back to Earth and pretend like none of this happened. My father taught me how to open a portal, and I’m pretty sure that’s how he’s getting here. I can visit when I want. I get the feeling my father is the hippy kind of demon dad who’d rather me stay here with four boyfriends and one girlfriend than force me to live in Hell with him.”
Yeah, I got that vibe with Barbatos too. Sure, he had all these armies he was bringing with him, and he was integral to our plans at the arena, but he didn’t even blink when he found us all piled in her bed and even demanded Hades himself give his daughter some privacy and knock. Hades didn’t knock if it was urgent. It didn’t matter who you were. But unless he wanted to lose his alliance with Hell, he would be giving River privacy.
I juggled her in my lap to pull her closer. I sure wished she was clean and dry, but I’d take this.
“Then, we’ll make it work. Pavlina and Demos seriously agreed to share you with each other? That pretty much seems impossible.”
“You know what’s impossible? That bathtub in my bedroom. I’m filthy. Want to take a bath with me?”
My cock got hard, and my bull came raging to the surface.Of course,I wanted to take a bath with her. I scooped her up and carried her to the bathroom. Hades had been kind and left some of Persephone’s favorite bubble bath on the tub. I wasn’t too masculine to sit in a tub of pink water with a beautiful woman. In fact, I was looking forward to it.
She was totally checking me out when I stripped off my clothes. Her eyes started at my face and wandered downward. They became the size of saucers when they landed on my cock. She cleared her throat.
“Are all minotaurs so well endowed?”
I just winked at her.
“Well, baby bird, I don’t make it a habit of going around staring at minotaur cock. I’m the only one alive right now.”
I slid into the scorching water. The water was swirling pink and purple with glitter, and I had bubbles up to my chin. I didn’t care. I wanted her in there with me.
“Get your ass in here with me.”
“I’ll get that pretty water all dirty.”
“Nonsense. That’s what baths are for.”
She slid right into my lap. Her ass was right up against my cock, and she rested her head on my chest. I wrapped my arms around her waist. I just wanted to sit there a moment before I bathed her.
“Kimon? Are you really okay with what I said? You seemed pretty upset about the idea of me with Demos.”
“I was upset with the idea of losing you to Demos. I’m not mad at the idea of sharing you with him.”
She sighed and sunk into the water a little deeper.
“This is nice.”
Hades put all of Persephone’s favorite toiletries in here. The only reason I knew that was because I’d gone with her to shop for them. I tapped her shoulder so she would sit up so I could wash her hair. As I was scrubbing, I saw something red on her neck. I brushed her hair aside and chuckled. Now that I knew the truth, my time would come too.
I nibbled on her shoulder.
“It looks like Pavlina has already marked you as her mate.”
“What?” she asked, trying to turn around.
“You don’t have Demos’ marks, but you have a red hourglass on the back of your neck.”
Her hand flew to the back of her neck.
“She didn’t tell me she was doing that.”
Was it wrong to point it out? I thought she knew. I was just confused why Pavlina had done it, and Demos hadn’t. I hoped I hadn’t just caused some sort of issue with baby bird and Pavlina. Did she even want to wear our marks?
“I’m sorry, baby bird.”
