CAMBION

Vindication Camp

Dragan props Variant against a tree just as we see smoke from the camp.

As soon as they saw Variant, the Seelie attacked on sight, wounding the once False King until I made my presence known.

I explained to them the events that had led to Variant’s rule as well as his fall.

After time to deliberate, they agreed to fight beside us if Eilish proved to be as strong a leader as the rumors made her seem.

Now, we peer over the lush forests along the outskirts of the fae realm, looking at the spattering of smokestacks that pepper the landscape.

Baron’s voice sounds through the communication rings, informing us the refugees are safe and that he, too, is on his way to the camp.

We begin the long trek through the forest and walk for miles towards a large field littered with vibrant tents.

The flags of the Vindication flap in the wind.

Golems, skinshifters, elves, dwarves, and other creatures of the realms fasten themselves into armor as we pass.

I turn to Dragan. “Get Variant to the mages for healing and then make your way to Eilish’s tent.

” The gargoyle shuffles off with a nod as I face the Seelie soldiers.

“Find a house brownie named Noni. She will take you to get food and water. There will be tents and cots set up for you within the hour.”

The soldiers wear a look of relief on their faces as Theren leads them to Noni’s little tent.

I make my way through the camp and find Eilish’s encampment.

The bold white covering stands out in a sea of sapphire, scarlet, emerald, and black.

The closer I get, the stronger I can scent her hunger.

She needs me. And I’m drawn to her in ways beyond my control. My heart yearns to be near her.

I open the tent and step inside. A spell silences the sounds of the camp.

Eilish sits at a small desk, writing in her journal.

She scrawls a few more words onto the page before setting down her pen.

Blue eyes shine in the lantern light as a coy smile plays on her lips.

“You’re back. I’ve missed you.” She stands up from her chair and leans against the desk, causing her thin robe to cling to her supple curves.

My eyes roam over her figure. “I missed you, as well,” I reply. “When did the others arrive at camp?” I can’t stay away. My feet carry me across the intimate space, trapping Eilish against the desk. She hums and traces her finger along the arch of my brows.

“Myerdoth led the gargoyles and a few others into the camp yesterday.”

“Where is Silvanus and Pyre?”

“Pyre is in the trees,” she answers. “He’s checking the sky for signs of the Obiqui or dark riders. It doesn’t hurt to be extra cautious after all that’s happened.”

“It’s smart.”

“Zir contacted me this morning. She says Unseelie are pushing through the city. The devices should keep them from detecting the keep and the wards Silvanus put up will defend us against any more attacks. Still, I feel uneasy knowing they’re so close.”

I place my hands on the desk, leaning into her further.

“The refugees are safe, Eilish. Our people are well hidden behind the walls we’ve built.

The soldiers are here in camp with us, prepared to fight against Abedon and Elioth.

Things... are as good as they could possibly be, considering the circumstances. ”

Eilish curls her fingers into my hair and pulls me into a kiss. I grip her bottom and lift her onto the desk. She spreads her thighs to make room for my hips. The folds of her robe part. I move back from the kiss to look down at her bare skin.

“Silvanus said that feeding from all of you… at the same time would unlock something inside me.”

“Whatever you need from me... it’s yours, Eilish.”

Theren steps into the tent and tilts his head to the side.

I glance over my shoulder at my brother as he drops his robes to the floor.

“Whatever you need from both of us .” He walks over to the bed and climbs on top of the duvet.

Eilish watches him with her eyes like a predator stalking its prey.

I step away and pull her towards Theren, practically hearing the pounding of her heartbeat.

She straddles Theren. I untie her robe and slide it down her shoulders, remembering our time with Variant and Silvanus in the tower.

My prick thickens, craving the heat between her thighs.

Theren cups her ample breasts, eliciting a moan from Eilish’s lips.

I move quickly, tumbling her onto the other side of the bed.

I wrap my fingers around her wrists and pin her to the bed as Theren kneels between her splayed thighs.

He dips low, situating onto his belly. Eilish’s hips lift in a desperate attempt to feel Theren’s mouth on her intimate flesh.

I lick my lips, basking in the sweetness that fills the air.

Eilish squirms fiercely, too excited to focus.

My lips brush along her neck as Theren tastes her.

Seeing my brother between her legs should fill me with rage.

On the contrary, I find I’m aroused by the sight.

The flash of pink between her folds causes me to grow painfully erect in my trousers.

My magic takes place of my hands, holding Eilish captive against the bed as I strip away my clothes.

She stares unblinkingly. The soft brush of fabric against the floor causes her to flinch.

A scream pulls her lips apart. Before the sound can leave her, I slide my cock inside her mouth.

Eilish moans. The tight constriction of her throat forces a groan from my mouth.

EILISH

Vindication Camp

My tongue swirls around the velvet crown of Cambion’s erection.

The taste of him explodes along my senses, filling me with a sense of calm that contradicts the stuttering rhythm of my hips.

Wet suction steals the breath from my lungs and I pull off Cambion’s length to stare down at Theren.

He gazes back at me through a curtain of hair that tickles my pelvis.

Glistening, kiss-swollen lips close around my clit.

The firm press of his tongue causes me to gasp, allowing Cambion to fill my mouth once more.

I swallow as he thrusts inside, feeling my mouth work his shaft.

He growls like a beast, but I see only love in his eyes.

I release a whimper of disappointment when he pulls away too soon.

My displeasure doesn’t last long as Cambion wets his fingers to spread my folds.

Theren sighs his approval, dipping his tongue inside me.

Cambion’s finger draws circles along my clit, causing tingles to spread through my body.

Theren pushes my knees to my chest and I feel the hot flicker of his tongue across….

“Oh God!” I whimper. “I need you inside of me. Please.”

Cambion’s fingers fill my pussy as the tight furl of muscle gives beneath the wet press of Theren’s tongue.

An unusual pleasure tickles the base of my spine as he works open the entrance of my anus.

Theren inserts a finger, spreading spit along my insides.

Still, I hiss at the burn of the intrusion.

He casts a spell... to lubricate. I feel slick dribbling from forbidden places as a second finger joins the first. Cambion curls his fingers and I see stars along the edges of my vision.

The constant stretch of Theren’s fingers mingles beautifully with Cambion’s tingling.

“Breathe, love,” Theren says softly. “You can take more. I know you can.”

“Relax.” Cambion kisses my lips as his thumb strokes my clit. The sensation triggers a wonderful climax. A third finger enters me, but the pain is lost in a maelstrom of pleasure. I moan into Cambion’s mouth as waves of powerful aftershocks crash over me.

A throat clears from the entrance of the tent and I pry my eyes open. Pyre’s eyes flicker from white to liquid gold. His nostrils flare as he stands beside the bed, looking over Theren’s shoulder as he stretches me open.

“Isn’t she beautiful, Pyre?” Theren asks.

“Indeed,” Pyre answers with a rumble in his chest. Cambion releases me from his power and moves to sit. Pyre runs his fingers through my hair and yanks my head back. I groan in the back of my throat, feeling a tantalizing sting against my scalp. I love it when he’s rough with me.

“You like this, don’t you?” Pyre demands. “Of course you do. You like feeling helpless, used up and filled with our seed.”

“Yes…”

“Then climb on top of Cambion and show him how much you like having his cock inside you,” Pyre commands.

He lets go of my hair and Theren slides his fingers out of me as I sit in Cambion’s lap.

The dark aroma of Pyre fills the room. It reminds me of a thunderstorm after a heatwave.

He plays the role of conductor, instructing Theren to take his place behind me.

“Eilish, lower yourself onto Cambion. Very good... nice and slow. Just like that.” Pyre reaches between Theren and me. He eases my arms behind my back and secures them with what feels like silk.

“Pyre?” I ask, suddenly growing nervous.

“Trust me,” he says in my ear.

I nod, excited to see what he has in store. “I trust you.”

“Good. If it gets to be too much, just say so.” He waits for my response, but I lose the ability to speak as Cambion slowly feeds his cock into my pussy. Pyre’s deep voice breaks through the intense sensations. “Eilish.”

My gaze snaps to his and I lick my lips nervously. I want to please him as much as I want them to please me. “Yes, Pyre.”

He kisses my forehead. “Good girl.”

Theren uses the curve of my hips to steady himself behind me.

Slowly... oh, so slowly, he pushes into me.

Pyre’s fingers trace erratic patterns against my clit and my body sings.

Pulsing vibrations of magic erupt within me as Theren’s pelvis smacks against my ass.

He hunches over my back to kiss my shoulder.

I will my body to adjust to his size, feeling twinges in my muscles each time I breathe.

Pyre kisses me. “You are so perfect, Eilish.” There’s a mischievous twinkle in his gaze that makes me shiver. “Just relax. I’ll take care of everything.”

Cambion begins to move. Each thrust causes Theren to shudder behind me.

I fall against Cambion’s chest as Theren uses my arms for leverage, pulling his hips back before thrusting forward again.

Smooth, unhurried movements begin to synchronize as Cambion and Theren find their rhythm.

Pyre stalks beside the bed, still swathed in his black robes.

The vibrations in the air grow strong and I can’t fight it any longer.

Light surrounds me. Cambion’s back arches.

Red smoke floats from between my lips and into his mouth as I feed off his magic.

His eyes open wide as the orgasm is ripped from his body, filling me with spurts of thick seed that warms the ache in my muscles.

My pussy grips him, keeping him inside me until he begs me to stop.

Cambion’s release causes me to climax, sending Theren over the edge with me.
