“Are you the Death Star? Because you blow me away.” He laughed through his own joke as he bent to kiss me.

The taste of lime exploded on my tongue as we stood on the deck and kissed for a long time. My knees were weak by the time we pulled away from each other. Even his cheeks were flushed a little.

“I could kiss you for an eternity and never get tired of it.” He pressed a final kiss to my cheek as I fought not to blush again.

Jasper always had a way with words that just weakened me.

“Why don’t we do a bonding game night?” An idea popped into my head. I wanted Wyn to get comfortable with the guys. He needed a push to relax. “You guys have karaoke?”

Jasper’s emerald eyes glinted against the light. “Do we have karaoke? Is that a serious question?” Laughing, he pulled me back into the game room. “Guys, do we have karaoke?” This, he shouted to them.

Cody jerked off of Axel’s lap, groaning as his character was killed on screen. Judging by Seth’s snicker, it had been his fault. Cody brushed his hair out of his face as he looked over at us with excitement.

“Really? We can bring it out? Seth said never again after last year's fiasco!” He glanced between Seth and me, with his eyes growing comically large.

I looked at Seth. I pushed out my lower lip, just a little, in a fake pout. He looked at all of us and groaned in defeat.

“Fine. Yes, we have karaoke.” He let his head fall back onto the back of the couch with a groan. “Just try not to get the cops called on us again.”

“Wait. Cops?” That was a story I had to hear.

“We got drunk and very loud back home. Our neighbors got pissed at one a.m. and called the cops.” Axel’s amusement was apparent as he watched Seth groan again. “At least our nearest neighbor is with us here.”

Cody scrambled up. “I’ll grab the machine! Jasper, get Mr. Broody down here! He has to join us.” He ran off down the hallway.

Seth sighed as he watched Jasper go upstairs. He patted the seat next to him on the couch. With a streak of mischief, I plopped down between him and Axel, making them move over to give me room.

“You going to sing, cub?” Axel turned off the game with a controller before switching the input on the television.

I shook my head. “Oh no. Not happening. It’s like nails on a chalkboard.”

Seth ran a hand through his hair. “They are all crazy when it comes to karaoke.”

“I wouldn’t call it ‘crazy’.” Axel grinned, a boyish gleam. “We just know how to have fun. Don’t think you’re not participating, either, Seth.” He dodged the controller that Seth threw at him. “Becca will definitely want to listen to you.”

Now I was intrigued. I placed my legs across his lap, just in case he tried to get away, and gave him an innocent look. “You sing?”

Those azure eyes narrowed at me, even as he ran his hands along my shins. “Don’t think I don’t know what you’re doing.”

I batted my eyelashes at him. “I have no idea what you’re talking about. So, singing? Yes?”

He just shook his head as he looked down at my feet and started to rub them, but I saw the tiny smile he tried to hide. I punched the air in success as Axel laughed.

“If I’m singing, so is everyone else.” Seth pressed down on the bottom of my feet at once. I felt my soul leave my body as I slumped backward.

“Oh, God. Whatever you want.Just keep doing that.” My head ended up in Axel’s lap as Seth did wonderful things to my feet that should be illegal somewhere. Axel started to run his fingers through my hair which made my eyes close.

I was a goner. A moan echoed through the room as I sank into the pleasure of their touch. It wasn’t even sexual and my body was primed and ready.

“I leave the room for five minutes and you guys are trying to get her pants off her again.” Jasper’s exasperated voice filtered through my haze of pleasure. My eyes slit opened as I looked over to them in concern. I knew we’d just talked, but he said that the jealousy was going to happen for a little while, it still made me worry.

“Don’t worry, kit.” Seth squeezed my feet one last time before he moved my legs and stood. “Wyn, we’re going to be having a karaoke party, why don’t you help me grab snacks and drinks from downstairs?” He stopped next to Jasper and whispered something to him.

Axel tugged on my hair, distracting me. His expression was soft. He had no right to look so delectable. “There’s still three of us that need to mark you. Once that’s been done, we should all settle a little.” He’d figured out that I’d started to get worried.

Jasper took Seth’s spot, moving my legs so that he could sit before settling them in his lap. He ran his fingers lightly around the skin under my knee. Pleasure shot straight to my pussy and I had to focus on keeping my breathing even.

“Sorry. My fox is being a jealous little asshole. I’m not pressuring you, Becs. Don’t think any of us would do that. This is all at your pace, regardless of how much our animals are dickwads.” His whisper was laced with guilt.
