Of two very unamused men, both of them standing in a boat that’s not meant for such things. The rowers are doing their best to balance it, but if we don’t sit down soon, we’re all going to be back in the water.

“What the fuck?” Turo demands.

“You should have said something!” Kai adds.

I look out at Ophiucas, and I swear he winks before vanishing into the water. We’re left in a calm cove, with Zephyth’s great bell ringing behind us, and despite my exhaustion, I’ve never felt lighter in my whole life.

Now neither Ophiucas nor I are trapped—not by marriage and not by the cove. We’re not trapped in service to the city we love—we’re free to serve it how we will instead.

Free.

I like the sound of that, even if it comes with annoyed, overprotective lovers and a lot of explaining to do.

“I couldn’t let him keep suffering,” I say to them as we all sit down, much to the rowers’ relief. They get the boat moving back toward Zephyth, and I get a kiss to the temple from Kai and a relatively dry blanket over my shoulders from Turo.

“I can’t fault you for that,” Turo says, “but telling us what you intended would have been smart. Not to mention kind.”

“It all came together so quickly…”

“Your sister has already tried to take the blame, but we know it was just as much you.” Kai laughs.“Eh, what does it matter now? You’re safe and back with us.”

“And the city is half flooded and your father is furious, but that’s not new,” Turo adds. “So. Any more death-defying acts of worship planned for this evening?”

I’d like to say that I’ve got several acts of worship planned, all of them taking place in bed, but…

“A bath, food, and sleep,” I say. “In that order.”

Kai laughs hard enough to rock the boat.

Turo kisses me, gentle and smiling. “We can do that,” he says, and I don’t think I could be happier with my life than I am right now.

Chapter Forty

Turo

I don’t think I remember what day it is. I don’t recall the color of the sky or the taste of bread or even the sound of a solitary heartbeat. My senses are overwhelmed, stolen and kept by two incredible men who, for some reason, are letting me have my way with them. Cam appreciates my need for control, and Kai is easygoing enough to make this possible.

All I have to do is make sure it’s as good for them as it is for me.

I think, judging from the sounds they’re making, that I’m doing a damn good job so far. There’s something decadent about fingering Cam to orgasm while he chokes on Kai’s cock.

I thought I would be in such a rush the first time I got to sleep with both of them, but instead I’ve slowed way down. I want to savor this for as long as possible. Of course, we’ll be doing it again, hopefully many times…a day.

But this time is the first. It’s special. It should be memorable.

“That’s it,” I say as Cam clenches around my fingers. “Fuck, that’s it, that’s so good.” I reach around his waist to stroke him through the last few pulses and he moans brokenly, but he doesn’t pull off Kai’s dick. “Perfect. You’re gorgeous. Look at Kai. He’s going to come before you’ve sucked him for five minutes.”

“You try not to come like this,” Kai grunts, one hand in Cam’s hair to hold him steady as he thrusts in and out of his mouth. “It’s impossible. I’m not…I need to—”

“You need to last long enough to fuck Cam after I do,” I say, pulling my fingers out of Cam’s body. I’m sure Cam is sensitive now, but the way he’s pressing insistently back against my groin suggests he doesn’t care.

“Or I could fuck you while he watches,” Kai suggests with a smirk on his face.

Cam moans again.

“Next time,” I promise, because yeah, I want to feel that monster in me. “This time, we’re spoiling Cam.”

“Are we? Or is he spoiling us?”
