Behind me, Kaiden let out a low laugh, and as I screamed my climax into the night sky, he sucked my neck and gently, so damn gently, plucked my nipples. Toyed with them. Teased them just to wring more pleasure out of my body.

“I caught her,” Zander growled, pulling me more firmly against his mouth when my body went limp against Kaiden’s chest. “We said whoever caught her—”

“No one’s going to argue with you, Zan,” Umber said, smiling as he moved forward and laced his hand into my hair. “The only question is if she’s ready.”

He raised his eyebrows at me, and I bit back a moan and shook my head, unsure if I was truly protesting or if I wanted to see their response. See how determined they were to have me.

Kaiden growled low in my ear when I shook my head, but Umber only smiled. “Still fighting, aren’t you, Princess. I’d expect nothing less.”

He dropped to his knees then, and before I could scream at him or do anything more than shove my hands against his chest, he kissed me. His lips felt soft, but the kiss was brutal and rough. He slid his tongue into my mouth, holding my chin and pressing me back into Kaiden, who still had his hands on my breasts. While Umber kissed me, Kaiden devoured my neck, and Zander continued to tease and torment my pussy with his tongue. Dex was the only one left, and when Umber pulled back from the kiss to start moving down my body, I met Dex’s darkened gaze, silently pleading…

He only smiled, bent to kiss my lips, and reached his hand down to where Zander was thrusting his tongue inside me. The brush of his fingers made me suck in a breath, and when my whole body shuddered, he laughed softly.

“Oh, she’s ready,” he purred, biting my bottom lip softly. “Do you like the way Zander’s licking your pussy? You’re gonna love how hard he fucks it.”

All four of them surrounded me then, holding me tightly even as I whimpered and started to shake. Kaiden moved back off Zander’s body, helping Umber and Dex lay me down in the soft grass. I tried to get up, but Kaiden grabbed my hands and pinned them above my head.

“Please,” I begged, but his eyes were nearly black with lust, and all he did was smile.

“Get her legs spread.”

Dex and Umber finished what Zander started and tore my trousers off my legs. Dex reached for a dagger in his pants and cut through the waistband, and with that last scrap I was bare before them.

I tried to kick and flail, but they each took one leg and spread me open as Kaiden commanded. Their hands smoothed over my thighs, drifting down to slide over my pussy. Umber let out a low moan and he bent to kiss me again right before he pushed his fingers inside me.

“You’re so wet, Aria, even without a spanking.”

“That’s coming,” Kaiden grumbled, his hands tightening on my wrists. When I looked at him, aghast, all he did was narrow his eyes. “You ran recklessly into that battle—”

“I saved your life!”

That hard expression softened for a second, and he leaned down, pressing his lips to my forehead.

“And I will never be able to repay you for it. Which is only going to make me spank you harder.”

My breath hitched, and I tried to twist away from his hold when the fear still lingering in my chest roared to life again. “You’re all bastards. You’re going to punish me—”

“For hiding from us for days. Days, Aria.”

“You should have been in our bed healing,” Dex scolded.

“You should have been in our arms,” Umber chimed in, but it was Zander’s low growl that drew my attention.

“We can take care of her ass later. The only thing getting attention right now is her sweet little cunt.”

He shoved his pants roughly off his hips, then fisted his cock and crawled over my body. My breath hitched, and just as he notched himself against my entrance, he lowered his lips to mine.

The kiss was rough, his teeth nipping at my lip, tongue sliding against mine, but nothing could distract me from the sensation of his cock as it rubbed against my pussy. He rocked his hips, coating the long length of himself in my wetness, teasing my clit with the soft, spongy tip until I was trembling, clutching Kaiden’s wrists to ground myself.

“Please.”

“It’s right there, Princess,” Zander cooed. “It’ll be inside you soon.”

I shook my head even as my hips canted toward him, my legs opening of their own accord even though Dex and Umber had them spread wide. Zander kissed the corner of my mouth. The gesture was so sweet and filled with so much devotion I whimpered, but then I shoved the hope and longing down to let rage have its last say. I sucked in a breath when his mouth moved to my neck, gritting my teeth as I looked up and met each of their eyes in turn.

“You’d better keep your fucking promises,” I hissed. “If you ever leave me behind again—”

“Never,” Zander vowed, the others echoing the statement. “After tonight, we won’t want to leave the bed. We’ll be too busy making you scream.”
