CHAPTER 7
Rhys got up and moved to where Ethan and Day sat side by side on the sofa and knelt on the floor in front of Ethan. He placed his hands on Ethan’s knees as he looked into his eyes imploringly. “I don’t want either of you to think I’m a slut, or that I’m desperate, because I am neither of those things. But I have dreamed of my mates forever and now you’re both here, and you’re both the sexiest men I have ever seen, and you’re both so nice, and sweet, and caring. And both of you sitting here, listening to what I say and not judging me, is like my dreams have finally come true, and I just want to grab onto you with both hands and not let go.
“The thoughts that have been flashing through my head since the moment I met you both had me upset because I shouldn’t have had them. You are both mated and I shouldn’t have had those thoughts about mated men, but now that I know I didn’t do anything wrong and it’s because you are my mates, it just makes me happy. Because you should be all hot and horny about your mates, right?”
Day smirked and gave Rhys a heated look. “So, you’ve been having naughty thoughts about us, sweetheart?”
Rhys met Day’s gaze. “Well, duh. I mean hell, have either of you looked in a mirror lately? You’re both so fucking sexy. And now that I know that you’re my mates I just want to jump on your laps and hump you until my eyes roll to the back of my head and I pass out from ecstasy,” Rhys replied in a breathy, longing voice.
Ethan reached out and cupped Rhys’s cheek, bringing his attention back to him. “Are you sure we should move this fast, Rhys? As much as me and my phoenix want to just rub all over you and take you to bed, I wonder if we should wait a little longer. Get to know each other more,” Ethan said gently.
Rhys sat up straight on his knees and slid his hands up Ethan’s thighs, stopping just before he reached his groin. “Is it because I look too much like a woman, that makes you hesitate? Or is it because you just don’t want someone getting in the middle of what you and Day already have? I know you have been together for a few years now and all I have heard from everyone is how much the two of you are so perfect together, and how much you love each other. I don’t want to ruin what you have. But I don’t want to give up my mates either. I know it’s too soon to declare our undying love for each other, but?”
Rhys was cut off when Ethan sat forward and captured his lips with his, kissing him softly. Rhys whimpered and leaned into the kiss, opening for Ethan. Their tongues slid together, entangling and caressing. Ethan cupped the back of Rhys’ head and pulled him closer, tilting his head, and deepening the kiss.
Rhys was lost in the pleasure of the kiss. His head spun and he felt like he was floating. It was the most sensual kiss he had every experienced and he wanted more. Rhys was hungry for so much more. He shifted and raised up, climbing onto Ethan’s lap, and straddled him. Rhys slid his hands over Ethan’s chest and around his neck, never breaking the kiss.
Ethan’s hands gripped his hips and Rhys felt his hunger grow, as Ethan’s cock hardened beneath his ass, pressing against his crease. He started squirming, rubbing his hard cock against Ethan’s stomach, trying to ease his suffering with the friction it caused. Everything felt so good and he wanted more. He moaned into Ethan’s mouth and Ethan took his desire into him, swallowing it down.
Ethan slid his hands up Rhys’ back, then his sides, and cupped his face between both hands almost desperately. They slowly pulled back from the kiss and their gazes locked, as they both panted heavily.
“Fuck, you’re so damn sexy, Rhys, and you kiss like a vixen,” Ethan said breathlessly.
“You kiss like a god. And your cock pressed against me is delicious. It’s a lot bigger than I would have expected from a man of your stature. Not that you’re small, but compared to our other mate who is built like he bench-presses houses,” Rhys replied with a shrug.
Ethan chuckled. “Yeah, he does have that whole Greek god look about him, doesn’t he?”
“Mmm, gods, yes. I bet he fucks like one too.”
“Oh, hell yes. Day fucks like a dream,” Ethan agreed on a moan.
“Well, thank you both for that. You’re great for my ego, but I need a taste too. Watching the two of you kiss like that was so fucking hot,” Day spoke in a deep voice as he reached over and grabbed the back of Rhys’s neck and pulled him closer, than attacked Rhys’ lips, kissing him fiercely.
Rhys whimpered into the kiss, loving every second of it as Day dominated him with his tongue and lips. A hand pressed against his hard cock and Rhys wanted to scream from the pleasure. He thrust his hips against the hand, loving the pressure.
Warm lips kissed the side of his neck and nibbled up to his ear, a warm, wet tongue drawing the lobe between soft lips. Large, strong hands ran up his back, giving him the feeling of safety and protection.
Day pulled back from the kiss and pressed his forehead to Rhys’s brow. “Fuck, sweetheart. I just want to lay you out and explore every inch of you.”
“Okay,” Rhys agreed breathlessly.
“Is this a good idea? For us to go this fast? I mean, fuck, if I don’t want to just make love to you both, but is it okay for us to move this fast? I don’t want you to think we just want sex, Rhys, because that’s the furthest thing from the truth. We want all of you. To know you, all of you,” Ethan questioned, but his hands continued to caress Rhys almost desperately.
Ethan’s words told Rhys that he was trying to be a good mate by making sure they were all on the same page and Rhys wasn’t feeling pressured, but his actions were telling Rhys the truth of Ethan’s desire for him. “I think that we all feel the heat between us, and we all want the same thing. We want to go into my room and fuck like animals and claim each other. You’re very sweet to want to make sure that I’m okay with this, mate, and the answer is, hell yes. Unless you’re afraid because of your mating with Day?”
“No, baby. I know you wouldn’t come between me and Day, you would only enhance what we have. As you said, we have been together for a while and Day and I know everything about each other and I am confident in what we have. Adding a wonderful man like you to what we already have would only make us both luckier than we already are,” Ethan explained lovingly.
Rhys could see the sincerity in his eyes and hear it in his voice. It made him fall in love with Ethan a little more. Rhys looked to Day hesitantly, afraid he wouldn’t agree with his mate, but Rhys was pleasantly surprised when he met Day’s gaze and saw the same look in his eyes as he saw in Ethan’s.
“I completely agree with our mate. What Ethan and I have is perfect for us. It’s wonderful and I feel so blessed having him as my mate. We never even thought of another in our lives or hearts and were both content with our life together, but now knowing we have a third, we both feel that we weren’t totally complete. Meeting you, and knowing what a wonderful man you are, only showed us that we were missing something. You will only enhance our lives, Rhys, and we hope to enhance yours. I know it all seems fast, but I don’t care. We’re the ones in this relationship and it’s up to us, no one else. If either of you want to wait, then I will abide by your wishes. But I have to say that me and my dragon just want to claim you and make you mine. Make you ours. Mine and Ethan’s.”
“We have a lifetime to get to know everything about each other. And I have complete faith that fate knows what she’s doing when she creates our mates for us. I know she makes mates perfect for each other and what they each need. I’m sure we will have a few hiccups along the way until we really get to know each other, but I don’t want to wait. I want to belong to you both,” Rhys replied.
They both looked to Ethan expectantly. Ethan met Rhys’s gaze, then turned and looked to Day. A small smile tipped the corners of his mouth as his eyes filled with heat. “Let’s go claim our mate, babe,” he said to Day.
In the blink of an eye, Day moved and stood, as he lifted Rhys from Ethan’s lap in the same motion. Rhys squealed and wrapped his legs around Day’s waist, and arms around his neck as he held on tight. Day quickly walked them through Rhys’ apartment and down the hall.
“Last door,” Rhys whimpered.
