CAMERON

I stared up at the stars through the trees above our head. Molly was curled up in my arms, her perfect body pressed against mine beneath her blanket. She’d had a conversation with Travis as well, and he’d accepted the truth with as much grace as Kyle had.

Both of the bastards were pissed with me, but they’d known there was a good chance they wouldn’t win before they ever stepped foot on the island.

All of us did.

When night arrived, Kyle had sprawled out in the group’s shelter.

Travis had claimed mine.

I would’ve rather taken Molly to my own, but I wasn’t about to let another asshole sleep in my female’s bed. Smelling her scent on his skin would drive me mad. So, we’d gone to bed in hers.

That had been hours earlier, though.

I hadn’t managed to fall asleep. Not that I’d gotten much sleep on the island at all. Knowing I was moments away from losing Molly at all times kept my mind too occupied to rest until my body decided to shut down.

I was going to win the game—but it wasn’t over yet.

And I wouldn’t be able to relax until she was mine.

Permanently.

Molly shifted beside me, and my wings curved with her.

She didn’t have my magic yet, but my body already responded to hers. It had from the beginning. Guarding her had been a simple task, because I’d felt like she was a part of me since the moment we met. I was aware of her every move, every sound, and every breath.

She lifted her head, eyes heavy with sleep. I’d only seen her like that twice during our four years. Both times were when she’d fallen asleep on the couch, watching a movie or TV show.

“Still awake?” she murmured.

My cock throbbed hard against her thigh. I couldn’t have stopped it if I tried. I hadn’t softened since I had her bare body against mine on that yacht.

“Yep.” I kissed her forehead.

The alternative was to drag her up my body and make love to her mouth with mine. Which I didn’t think she wanted, given she’d been sleeping moments earlier. And the hesitation I’d seen on her face so many times was definitely a deterrent.

Though I believed she was going to choose me, given the lack of other options, I knew she was still hesitant about it. And that was where my uncertainty came in.

“You’re tense. Why?” Her voice was soft enough not to wake up Kyle or Travis. They were both snoring loudly enough that I had no doubts about it.

“Just tired of this island.” I smoothed my hand over her back. The sweater she still had on prevented me from touching that soft, sexy skin. “Don’t worry about it. Go back to sleep.”

She rolled her eyes at me. “I thought you wanted me to be your mate.”

“Of course I do.” My voice came out as more of a growl than I intended.

“Then you have to tell me the full truth. I’m not doing a one-sided relationship.”

I grimaced.

I’d known that was coming, just hoped I had a little more time first. I didn’t want her worrying about me, or the state of our connection.

“Knowing that you could still choose one of the other males makes it difficult to relax,” I admitted.

She nodded. “You don’t trust me.”

“It’s not a lack of trust, per se, but?—”

“It is, though. Trust takes time. And I’ve been avoiding you as much as you’ve been avoiding me for the past few weeks. We had to do it, but it doesn’t make either of us confident in what we have.” Her voice was still soft, those brown eyes warm as they looked into mine.

I nodded grudgingly.

She moved her thigh over my cock just a little, and I grunted.

“How much sleep have you gotten since we’ve been here?” she asked.

“Some.”

“Cam,” she warned.

“Not much,” I finally admitted.

Molly nodded. “I think I can help with that.”

My forehead creased.

She rolled to the side a bit, removing her body from mine. Though I wanted to pull her back against me and trap her there, I knew I couldn’t. She needed her freedom.

My body clenched tighter with the realization that she was going to walk away.

Would she join Kyle in the shelter?

Or go to Travis’s side, and?—

A quiet hiss escaped me when a small, warm hand wrapped around my erection over the top of my shorts.

That, I hadn’t expected.

Or even considered a possibility.

She rolled closer, so the front of her body was pressed against my side. “Is this okay?” she whispered, stroking me lightly through my shorts.

“Fuck, yes.”

Her lips curved upward, and she pressed a kiss to the side of my throat.

My cock jerked in her hand, and I felt her smile widen.

She released me, slipping her fingers beneath my shorts. “I’m not very good at this, so tell me if I do something wrong.”

“Not possible, Lolli.” I slid one of my hands into her hair, screwing up the ponytail I’d tied for her earlier.

I’d fix it again after.

She wrapped her fingers around my bare cock. Thankfully, I managed to muffle my groan with her hair.

“How’s that?” she asked.

“Perfect.” The word was growled into her hair.

Her hips rocked against me slightly. I wanted to put a thigh between her legs to give her something to rub up against, but I wasn’t doing a damn thing to risk stopping her when she touched me like that.

After she was done, I’d make sure she got more than she gave.

“You’re massive,” she whispered against me, slowly stroking my length. Her touch was soft and smooth, and it had been far too long since I received or gave myself any kind of pleasure. I wouldn’t last long. “How will you feel inside me?”

She wanted me to turn her on.

Fucking hell, she would be the end of me.

“Thicker than you can imagine,” I said into her hair, fighting hard to stay quiet. The last thing I wanted was either of the other men interrupting us. We’d have to stop, and I’d probably have to kill them.

“And how will I feel?”

“Slick. Tight. Hot.”

She continued moving her hand slowly, as if she was taunting me. “How do I make this better for you?”

“Rougher.” I growled the word, unable to stop myself.

Her hips arched slightly. “Is that how you’ll fuck me? Roughly?”

Her fingers tightened, and I fought back my release as she gave me exactly what I’d wanted.

“If that’s how you want to be fucked.”

“What if I don’t know what I want?”

“Then I’ll give you a little of everything, so you can choose.”

My body strained as she jerked me harder, and faster.

“You’ll be good to me,” she said, confidence in her voice.

“Always.” I grabbed her hand, stopping her motions as my cock throbbed while I fought my release again. “Wait.” My voice was as rough as her touch.

She slipped her free arm beneath my shoulder and dragged her fingertips lightly over the inside of my wing. It was one of the least sensitive spots—but it set me off.

My face twisted into a snarl as I fucked her hand hard. The scent of her desire thickened around me as I coated her fingers with my release, pleasure easing my tension immediately.

My gaze burned into her dilated brown eyes as she held my cock through the final jerks of my climax.

“That was the hottest thing I’ve ever done,” she whispered, making me throb again for her.

Fae didn’t have the same limit as human men.

We could release twice before we needed to rest.

And if touching me was the sexiest thing she’d ever done, I’d better step up my fucking game.

After a quick listen to make sure Kyle and Travis were still asleep, I rolled Molly to her back.

She blinked up at me, confused.

She didn’t expect me to ensure she had far more pleasure than I did.

The woman hadn’t learned yet, but she would. Quickly.

I unbuttoned her shorts and slid her bikini bottoms down her legs. Her breathing picked up as she let me strip her. The cameras would still be rolling, so I didn’t dare toss the blanket aside the way I wanted to. Though someone would cut out anything private before putting it on TV, I didn’t want the editors seeing a shred of my female’s pleasure.

When she was bare from the waist down, her sweater pushed up to her abdomen, I shucked my shorts and tucked her close against me, spooning her from behind.

She sucked in a sharp breath when my erection wedged between her ass cheeks, sticky with the pleasure she’d given me.

“Cam,” she whispered, her chest rising and falling quickly.

“Close your eyes. I don’t want the cameras to see anything but you sleeping against me,” I murmured.

“They’ll still hear u— oh .” The last word was a breath, as I throbbed against her back entrance.

Beneath the blankets, I took her slick hand and guided it between her thighs.

“What are you doing?” Her whisper was hot.

“You’re going to play with yourself, with my release.” I nipped at her earlobe, tugging lightly on the piercing I loved to play with.

Her hips arched back, pressing my cock tighter to her center. “Am I?”

“Mmhm. Stroke your clit for me.”

She moaned softly as she traced a slow circle around the sensitive bud with her slick fingers.

I sucked lightly on her throat.

When she was fae, no mark I gave her would linger for more than a few minutes. We healed quickly.

While she was human, she could wear it for hours, maybe days. And I wanted her to.

I sucked harder on her throat. The intensity made her curse, jerking her hips.

“Now, put my pleasure inside you,” I murmured.

“I’d rather put your cock there,” she whispered back.

I throbbed hard between her cheeks. “You don’t get that until you’ve chosen me, Lollipop.”

“Thought I already had.”

I eased her fingers down to her slit and guided them slowly into her channel, pushing them all the way in until her slick palm was pressed against her core.

Her breathing was faster.

The scent of her pleasure even thicker.

“Permanently,” I said.

“You think you can handle three more days of this before giving in and filling me?”

“Yes. The first time I’m inside you won’t be beneath a blanket, on an uncomfortable wooden pallet. You’ll be spread eagle on our bed, watching my thick cock enter you.”

Her breathing grew heavier. “You just want me desperate for it.”

I chuckled. “No. I just want to hear the sounds of your pleasure when you come with me inside you.” I pressed her palm harder against her core, and she couldn’t stop herself from grinding against it.

I throbbed against her backside, and she groaned quietly. “You’re killing me here.”

“It’ll be worth it, Loll.”

I sucked on her throat again, in the same spot I already had. The spot I wanted to mark her.

“Bastard,” she breathed.

“ Clever bastard.” I slid her fingers slowly out of her body, and she made a noise of complaint. “You’re going to smell so strongly of me tomorrow, neither of the men will dare flirt with you.”

She started to protest, but I slid two of my fingers into her channel, and she cut herself off with a sharp breath in.

“Feel how tight you are for me?” I murmured. “We’ll need three days to get you ready for my cock anyway.”

I slowly ran my fingers up the inside of her channel, searching for the spot she’d need me to find. The slight roughness took a moment to locate, but when I did, her hips jerked violently. My cock slid against her back entrance as she moved, and she cried out loudly.

I covered her mouth with my palm to cut off the sound, pausing to make sure she hadn’t woken up Kyle or Travis.

It brought me intense satisfaction to know that she’d lost control of herself to the point where she physically couldn’t keep quiet.

My ears strained as I waited.

There was movement in the shelter closest to us.

Travis.

His snoring had cut off, too.

“Not another sound, Loll,” I murmured into her ear, soft enough that he wouldn’t hear. “Now you have to wait until he’s asleep again.”

The expression on her face was one of agony as she tipped her head back to rest against me.

“I know, gorgeous.” I sucked on her throat again, my fingers still filling that tight little channel and my cock still stretching those sexy ass cheeks.

Her breath rose and fell quickly, but silently.

It took a few minutes, but Travis eventually fell asleep again.

“Bite me if you need to. Those sounds of pleasure are only for me,” I murmured, tightening my hand over her mouth as I finally started fucking her with my fingers again.

Her g-spot was easier to find the second time, and I had her entire body jerking moments later as she finally unraveled. Her cries were quieted enough by my hand that neither of the other men stirred.

Removing my hand from her mouth, I buried my fingers back in the soft strands of her hair but didn’t pull my fingers out of her body.

The woman was nowhere near ready for the size of my cock—but I’d tremendously enjoy getting her there.

“You’re so fucking sexy,” I murmured into her ear, my erection still against her ass.

“How are you still hard?” she panted, trying to stay quiet as she caught her breath. Her channel was still tight around my fingers.

“Fae men can climax twice before we need to rest.” I sucked on her throat once more. The mark I was leaving there was getting gloriously darker. “And we recover faster than humans.”

“Shit.” Her chest was still rising and falling rapidly.

I itched to free her of the sweater so I could have my way with those perfect tits, but it would’ve required changing our position and removing my fingers from her.

Which wasn’t happening.

There would be time to play with her breasts later.

All the time in the world.

“This was supposed to be about you,” she said, meeting my gaze.

My lips curved upward. “It is. It’s about me watching you climax, repeatedly.”

Her face reddened. “ Repeatedly ?”

“Of course. I’m just getting started with you, Lollipop.”

I slid my fingers out of her, and her hips rocked, once again sliding my cock against her back entrance. The friction made her suck in a breath. I was slick with both of our releases—and that only made me harder.

“What are you—shit.” She cursed softly, hips arching again as I pressed three fingers against her entrance. Her channel was so fucking tight around me, I nearly climaxed at the feel of it.

“You want my cock. This is how you get ready for it,” I said, sliding them in further.

Her hips rocked again, desperation in her eyes. “That feels so good.”

“I’ll feel better.”

She laughed breathlessly.

I ran my fingertips lightly over her g-spot again, brushing her clit with my thumb, and she detonated.

Her jaw was clenched, her body bucking against mine as she moved. The motions were so violent that our shelter creaked a few times—and she froze as she came down from the climax, realizing the noise she’d made.

Her eyes were wide.

Her channel was tightening again.

I sucked on her neck in the same place to darken my hickey.

The group shelter creaked too, and I heard Kyle mumble something in his sleep.

A moment later, silence descended again.

“We should stop,” Molly murmured, catching her breath again.

“Should we?” I removed my hand and added a fourth finger before I started pushing into her again.

Her head tilted back against me. “You’re going to kill me.”

“No, Lolli. I’m going to make sure you learn what it’s like to live .” I filled her with my fingers and sucked her throat as I worked her clit again, slower but harder.

She squeezed my fingers and cock with her pleasure, crying out against my hand as she lost control once more.

“We have to be done,” she moaned softly. “I’m going to be sore tomorrow.”

“Good.” I started to pull my hand free, to give her time to recover, but she caught my wrist before I could.

Her eyes met mine. “Don’t move. I’m not ready for you to move yet.”

My lips curved upward. “Good.” I kissed her nose, and she couldn’t fight her own soft smile.

When she relaxed against me, I relaxed too.

Finally, she was mine.
