Oh yeah, firecracker. You haven’t seen anything yet.

- MALAKAI -

BECOMING ONE

Idrag Alanis and Kailu from the dining hall twenty minutes later, to the amusement of our friends and family.

“Well, I guess we all better vacate the castle or else no one will be getting any sleep tonight!” Hendrix calls after us, earning him the middle finger from Alanis.

I’m thankful Elion isn’t here to hear what we’re about to do to his sister. He would be appalled.

I look to Alanis as we walk through the castle, and the smile plastered on her face as she loops her arm with Kailu’s warms my heart. We have no answers yet about him and Alanis, but I know in my heart that the three of us are meant to be together. It may just be wishful thinking, but I am certain this is the path we were meant to walk.

As soon as we enter my bedroom, I spin her around, pushing her back onto the black satin sheets covering the bed. She leans up on her elbows, looking at me with hooded eyes. I remove my black shirt, enjoying her eyes tracking over every one of my tattoos. Kailu leans over, peppering her with kisses, from her lips to her neck.

“One day you’ll have to tell me what they all mean,” she saysin a husky voice, licking her lips.

Smiling, I crawl over her, forcing her to lay back on the bed. Kailu shifts, crawling behind her and cradling her between his legs. I lean down, whispering in her ear, “Only if you’re straddling me naked while I do.”

I work my way down her body, trailing kisses as I go. Lucky for me, she’s wearing a dress. When I glance up, my eyes meet Kailu’s for a brief moment before he drops his gaze to Alanis, biting his bottom lip. When he leans down and kisses her deeply, I smirk and return to my task, kissing her sternum, only to halt when she gasps. A quick look shows me Kailu, too, is now shirtless. He settles behind her, yanking her sleeves down her shoulders, then tugs the top of her dress down to expose her full breasts.

I nip and kiss as I drag my mouth lower and bunch the dress up at her belly. I pepper her with kisses, not stopping until I’m at her inner thighs. Her breathing turns ragged. I can smell her arousal, heady in the air, the scent making me so hard it hurts. I slide her underwear gently down her legs. She wiggles her hips, seeking a release I know she needs desperately.

“Please, Mal.”

Gods, the sound of her begging is music to my ears. Not one to leave my mate unsatisfied, I lick up her center, practically purring at her taste on my tongue.

“Yes!”

Her sounds of pleasure spur me on. I grab her thighs and pull her onto my face, latching onto her core.

Devouring her.

I run my teeth over that bud that wrenches moans from her body, sending fire racing through my veins. She’s so wet I could easily slide into her, but this is about more than just my pleasure.

I want to unravel her, and a glance at Kailu says he’s fully onboard.

While he closes his mouth over her nipple, I slide two fingers inside, making her back arch from the bed. Sweat beads on her skin as her heart races. The sounds of her wetness around my fingers almost makes me finish, but I hold back and curl my fingers to rub against that sweet spot inside her. She detonates.

“MALAKAI.”

She squeezes my fingers so hard that I have to wait to remove them, her head thrown back and chest heaving from the orgasm that races through her. I lock eyes with her as I remove my fingers and bring them to her mouth.

“Suck.”

Her pupils dilate as she opens her mouth and tastes herself.

“If we do this, we will complete our mating bond…Is that what you want?”

Her breathing is ragged, eyes full of lust. “I almost lost you both. I don’t know what is in store for us in the future, but I want you.” She glances at Kailu, still hovering by her head, his cheeks flushed. “Both of you.”

I pull her to the end of the bed and flip her so she is on her stomach. I kick my trousers from my legs and pull her dress from her body. In my hurry I manage to rip the strap, earning a dirty look from my feisty mate.

“Don’t worry, firecracker, I promise I’ll make it up to you.”

“You bet—”
