I’ve missed this so much, I almost weep at the fullness.

When I close my eyes, it’s easy enough to imagine we’re alone. But the moment I open them again, I’m aware of dozens of dark eyes, watching from the shadows.

Lako wants us to give her a show.

So I don’t hold back. I don’t keep quiet.

When Jack catches my nipple between his teeth,biting me just hard enough, I jerk against him and don’t bother to hold in that broken gasp.

“If I can’t touch or taste,” Lako says, irritation in her tone for the first time. “I had better be able to see.”

Jack smothers a laugh in my neck before raising me from him, and standing, “Does the Yule Cat have a request?”

Her eyes narrow. “You know what I like…” She glances vaguely around her forest and Jack makes a noise of distaste. Not, I think, for the kittens still watching us.

His hand smoothes up my spine, and he pushes me forward as the ground beneath me rises once again. If I was able to speak—if he filled me just a little less—I might joke that Lako can’t see anything this way either.

A moment later, he hooks his arms under my legs, trapping me with his hand around my neck, and he draws me up and back against him.

I am fully on display, nothing in the way of her seeing everything.

But Jack thrusts as he moves back and sits on his throne once more, threatening to drive me to delirium.

I can imagine what I look like as Jack fucks me for her enjoyment as he buries his face in my hair. Drugged on the beginnings of my next orgasm, my gaze trails from Lako—laying on her throne, fingers stroking her own pussy—to where Calico kneels over Minx’s face, her hands bound together behind her back by Minx’s tail….

“Are you close, rabbit?” Lako’s voice is sharp, and he stills, keeping me pressed to his hips.

“It would amuse me to see you come on that pretty face.” Her gaze trails all the way up the ears of my mask.

Jack’s hold releases me and I slide off of him at the sudden loss of his support, but he catches me, turning me to him and pulling me back down on his cock.

His brow is creased as he drops his forehead to mine. “I don’t want to give this to her.”

And I would tell her to fuck off if I thought there was another way to get free of Juun’s trap.

“I don’t want to either, but if the choice is this or losing you?” I meet his eyes as I rock on him. “I’ll do anything to stop that.”

His eyes squeeze shut. “I love you, Lily.”

“I love you too.” I kiss his nose. “Let’s make sure I can keep you.”

Straddling him as I am now, I can take control. I can do this for him. “Just tell me when. Just think about me.”

“You came back to me.”

“I’ll always come back to you, Jack.” I kiss him, working myself over him, squeezing tight. “Always.”

His jaw tightens and his muscles clench, and he lifts me away.

I drop to my knees in front of him, playing the supplicant, and keep my eyes locked on his, until the first ribbons of his sugary come stripe across my face.

Flinching with each burst, Jack’s face contorts beautifully.

As the last big covers me, he drops back to his throne, and I test out how much I’m going to drip before I turn back to Lako.

His come clings to the mask and slides down to cover my breasts.

She stalks toward me, a smile pulling her lips up, sharp teeth gleaming.
