“I imagine it does,” Novak replied, a zipping and rustling sound following his words. “Just as I imagine you intend to take her first.”

“I do,” Auric agreed, his voice strained as he fed even more of himself into my mouth, forcing me to take just another inch. I relaxed my throat, accepting him and watching his reaction with intrinsic fascination.

This was Auric coming undone. No more control. No more thinking. No more concerns. Just unadulterated decisions founded in pleasure and forbidden cravings.

I hollowed my cheeks, wanting to feel more of that power piston into my mouth, but he pulled away with a curse, his grip on my hair almost harsh. “No,” he said. “Not yet.”

I purred in response, the hum meant to be a demand formore. I wanted to taste him just as he’d tasted me. I wanted him inside me. To lick up his essence. Devour him like he’d done me.My turn.

“Patience, Lay.”

I’d show him patience. My hand was still on his shaft, and I gave him a little pump, using the moisture I’d left on his head to smooth the motion down his length and back up again.

He growled.

I snarled.

And he yanked me up to my knees by my hair, forcing my mouth to meet his as he aligned my thighs. It happened so quickly that I was shocked my body knew how to obey, and then I was too distracted by his hardness against my abdomen to care. I wanted that inside me. I wanted him to—

Oh…

Novak’s chest met my back, his presence a dark shadow to my senses, surrounding me in his smoky aura.

Both of them were naked now.

Both of them were hot.

Both of them were hard.

Both of them were going to fuck me.

I shivered with the knowledge, my legs going weak. Novak’s hands on my hips held me in place while Auric’s fingers in my hair angled my head to better receive his brutal kiss. It was almost violent, yet gentle. As though my warriors were trying to be tender, to cherish me and hold their harsher natures at bay.

That wasn’t what I wanted.

I wanted them.

Their masculinity. Their ferocity. Theirsouls.

“Take me,” I said, then bit down hard on Auric’s lip. “Now.”

Novak chuckled against my neck, then he sank his teeth into my skin, just like I’d done to Auric, only his bite pierced my skin. I flinched, then moaned as his tongue laved the open wound, tasting my blood.

Auric’s chest rumbled in displeasure, whether at me or Novak, I couldn’t say. But then he leaned down to add his tongue to the wound, his growl turning into a groan. “I want to mark you,” he whispered darkly. “Ineedto mark you.”

He didn’t give me a choice, his lips already moving down to my breast. Novak’s palm circled my throat as he pulled me back, forcing me to arch and present myself to Auric.

Then his teeth sank into my breast, drawing a gasp from my throat.

Novak’s grasp slid upward to my chin, and he guided my lips back to his, kissing me soundly while Auric traced a seductive path to my nipple.

I grabbed his head, my opposite hand going to Novak’s wrist where I’d left indentations from my nails.A marking, I realized. I’d marked them both in my own way. I intended to do it again now.

By biting Novak’s lip just like I’d done to Auric.

Both men growled.

The energy heated between the three of us, boiling my blood and slickening my thighs. I purred in welcome. No.Demand. I ensured they knew I’d chosen them, that I would not allow any other outcome in this situation other than a full claiming.
