Kodiak growled, but Morpheus was already gone before he could even react to the flirtatious comment.

Zenaida shivered, her pupils dilating at the commanding sound from her Alpha.

“See you again soon, Ajax,” she said, no doubt sensing my desire to leave.Immediately.

Because I didn’t want to witness whatever was about to happen with her and her mates. She might look thirty years old in physical appearance, thanks to immortal genetics, but I still saw her as a grandmother.

Ugh.

“Thanks, Zen,” I managed to choke out, her nickname all I could say before I shadowed back to my room in the palace.

Az followed, a subtle laugh echoing in his mind.

“It’s not funny,” I muttered.

“It is,” he countered. “Because that really was our future. Thousands of years from now, we’ll still be just as attracted to Cami. Just as dominant. Just as possessive.” His tone deepened with each statement. “We’re going to fuck her for eternity, and I can’t fucking wait.”

I looked at him. “Are you wanting to start now?” Because I sensed her finally getting out of that bath and I wouldn’t mind helping her towel off.

But Az shook his head. “We’ll give Typhos a little more time. Then we’ll join.” He stepped into me, his bare chest touching mine. “And in the interim, we’ll spar.”

“Foreplay?” I countered.

“That is what I said,” he replied, making me roll my eyes.

“The adventures today weren’t enough to whet your violent appetite?”

He smiled. “That barely took the edge off.”

I stared into his eyes, noting the flicker of black as his Phoenix gazed back.

Vivaxia had leashed him again. Just for a few minutes. But it had been long enough.

Az wasn’t saying it, but he needed a little violence to work through what had happened. And he was choosing me for that outlet… to protect our mate.

“One match,” I told him. “Then I will want to shower and eat some?—”

His mouth captured mine before I could finish, his kiss so abrupt and harsh that he drew blood.

I growled and kissed him back with just as much force.

Then I let him take me down to the floor and submitted to his needs.

Because that was what mates did for each other—we helped each other in times of need. We provided protection and a safe place to heal.And we loved one another unequivocally.

CHAPTER 47

CAMI

Iglared at Typhos’s bare back, his wings having vanished soon after we’d arrived. Now his muscles created an erotic display that had my thighs clenching with need.

A need he’d stoked for the last hour while in the bath.

While forcing me to eat.

When all I wanted was to devour him instead.

Our Sources had joined, our mating bond fully intact. I needed to fuck him and complete our connection. To finally feel that thick dick of his inside me.
