Story: Fawn

“She gets off on the thought of being caught in compromising situations,” Eiden suddenly blurts out.

A smile curves my lips. By compromising situations, I’m assuming he means when he was going down on her over the side of the bathing pool yesterday and when she did, in fact, get caught in the act.

I’m proud of Eiden for being that bold. Jude had been radiating edgy pissed ever since he arrived—understandably so, and Eiden’s tongue fucking antics tipped him right over the edge. It was a pleasure to watch all around.

“I shouldn’t have told you that,” he says slowly.

I lean back in my chair and make him the subject of my undivided interest. “Tell me more.”

He sighs. “So you can use it against her?”

“That is generally the way this works,” I say, ignoring the kick of interest from my dick so I can focus on whatever he’s about to divulge.

Eiden wears his feelings openly and is already besotted with Fawn to the point of distraction. His face says he is torn between dishing the details so I can exploit them—because he knows I will make it good—and protecting his little doe.

“I will find out eventually.”

“Fine. She became absolutely drenched and squirmed in the most delightful way whenever I told her to be quiet lest herWolf hear. Then, she admitted she likes it when Jude takes her roughly and knots her—that was the first time she came.”

“First? That’s my good boy. I’m fucking proud of you for getting her off more than once in the short time you were alone. Wish I’d been there to watch.”

He puffs up under my praise, his golden cheeks taking on a deeper hue.

As for Fawn, she looks sweet and innocent on the outside, and while, for Eiden’s sake, I could learn to love her no matter what, I’m definitely intrigued by the thought of her having a secret dirty side.

“Her Wolf is a savage bastard for sure,” I continue. “The way he snatched her from you and pounded her against the wall was nothing short of inspiring. It was a fine show until Seven got all proprietary and kicked us out. I admit, I am interested in how she takes his knot. Doe shifters are not meant to take that abomination all up inside them. Must be a tight fit at the very least and a monstrous strain at the worst.”

Eiden shivers and his tongue wets his lower lip in a little tell. “Half doe, her father was a wolf, so perhaps…”

Seeing my smirk, he trails off.

“You were playing me, seeing how I felt about the knot? Gods, why am I so gullible?”

I believe these to be rhetorical questions, so all I do is shrug. I love that he is gullible. It gives me opportunities to play games.

Perhaps I should be less enamored with being a ruthless bastard? But that would make me a different person, and I’m very much content being exactly how I am.

I will have the pair of them squirming and relish every moment.

“Stop that,” he says.

I feign innocence.

“I’m serious, Nox. Fawn is sweet—and you are… a lot. She’s new here. I want her to love me… and I can already see you plotting her demise!”

I raise a brow. Everyone loves Eiden. I swear the herd does swoon just breathing in the same air. But Fawn’s pheromones have fucked him up; he’s being dramatic and on the verge of getting unruly, all of which is playing right into my hands.

He shakes his head at me. “Don’t. Gods, Nox, I’m not joking… Fuck, I’m making this worse, aren’t I?”

I’m pretty sure my answering grin is predatory because he swallows nervously.

“Are you getting hard?” I ask casually.

He doesn’t answer. I contemplate circling the table to check just to fuck with him. I’m hard as a rock, so it seems only fair he is likewise suffering over there.

The external suite door opens to admit Seven just as his bedroom door opens to admit our two guests. Eiden and I rise—after a slight delay, as I’m sure both of us attempt to get our dicks under control—and go to join them.

Jude is dressed in his usual boots and leather pants. Fawn wears a sheer, forest green silk dress that falls to her mid-thigh and makes my mouth water. She wasn’t wearing it when she arrived. I assume Seven had the foresight to dispose of the hideous shirt and pants and supplied her with something new. Her cheeks are pink, her lips a little puffy—from kisses or cock, I imagine—and her bright eyes dance over all of us before she turns back to Jude.
