“Share the taste of me with her,”Nox said.“That’s all she’s going to get.”

I don’t believe him, and further, his statement only drives my doe on to wag her tail like that might encourage the male to rut.

I glance back to find Nox’s gaze locked on my ass. Gideon hangs back, although he is also staring at my ass.

Good.

Good? Why is that good? Surely, four mates are enough. Only I have been sending surreptitious glances Gideon’s way all morning while reading my naughty book. And then Nox’s talk of courtiers has sent my thoughts to places they should not be. He didn’t seem angry about it, more amused… maybe a little derisive.

I stop at my favorite place beside the lake, where I shift to human.

My three companions do the same. Nox stands in the middle, one brow lifted in question. Eiden stands to the right, his bronze skin glistening in the sun—my beautiful omega with a sometimes feral stag. And then to the left, shorter by a head and shoulders, is Gideon with a trim build and silvery locks.

My focus does not remain on his beauty for long, for I am distracted by the way he crosses his hands over his groin area. He has to spread them very wide.

My tummy takes a slow tumble, and a little slick trickles between my thighs. I feel irrational hatred toward his hands. Maybe I should order him to take them away?

Nox distracts me when he clips Gideon up the back of the head.

“What?” Gideon says, his handsome face flushed. “I’m only human.”

“Technically, you’re not human,” Eiden says. “And what your packing is definitely above and beyond?—”

“Quiet, whelp,” Nox says in a low, dangerous tone. “If I even think you’re getting unruly, I will add an edging session into the mix.”

Gideon moans.

Maybe he has experienced Nox’s edging techniques. I know they sometimes took does to their bed. Did they take men as well? My eyes shift between the three men with unabashed interest. Well, their cocks. Two of which are proudly on display and hard. While I cannot see the third, I have every reason to believe it is in the same condition.

“If you’re going to swim, I suggest you go ahead,” Nox says. “There is a high probability you’re going to get fucked the longer you linger with your many feminine assets on display before three horny men.”

I think about staying where I am. I definitely want to, and I probably would if Gideon were not there. Actually, Gideon’s presence might be making my desire to act out worse.

Nox growls and takes a single step forward. It’s enough to galvanize me into action. I dart for the water, diving in with a squeal and a splash.

When I come up for air, the three men are talking in a cluster. Gideon says something. Nox clips him up the back of the head again.

Pity I cannot lip read.

I love the water. It is refreshing but not too cold, and as I move around, I find warm and cool pockets. I forget about the men talking on the side as I splash and float around. Tonight, I will write a letter to Luna and tell her about all my adventures. She will be thrilled when she learns that I am with my Wolf, and as for the rest, that is sure to come as a shock. She will likely be squealing with excitement to find out I can finally shift whenever I choose and be free to be me.

When I glance at the men again, I find Eiden and Nox still by the tree, having a heated discussion, while Gideon stands at the side of the lake, surveying the surroundings with his back to me.

He has a nice ass, round and firm-looking. Looking at it makes me feel hot.

Nox and Eiden are too busy talking and not paying attention to me.

Before I can second-guess my intentions, I swim to the side of the lake where Gideon stands. As I wade out of the water, he turns, glances, groans, and then snaps his eyes away.

He likes me.

A lot.

I like him too.

And I’m curious and definitely needy. My nipples are taut and my pussy is slick. The closer I get to him, the more his light forest scent wafts toward me on the breeze.

“Would you take my hand to help me out, please, Gideon?”
