Blowing out a breath because I already know my answer, even if I’m a little scared, I give him a nod. Xander rewards me with a half smile. He stands up and begins unbuttoning his crisp white dress shirt to reveal a tantalizing glimpse of his bare chest.

While Xander’s undressing, Bastian begins to untie my arms. His knuckles skim against my flushed skin, causing me to gasp. When he has the last knot untied, he rubs up and down my limbs for a moment.

He then moves around the bed until he’s in front of me. Stretching out on the bed, Bastian crooks his fingers for me to come over. Once I’m close enough, he lifts me up by my hips and sets me down straddling him.

Positioning his cock at my entrance with one hand, he uses his other to force me down on him. I moan at how good the new angle feels and try to move on him. With his grip on my hip, he keeps me in place before threading a hand through my hair and pulling me down for a hard kiss.

While I’m getting lost in Bastian’s mouth on mine, I feel something cold drip between my cheeks. I jerk in surprise, but Bastian keeps me right where I am. When I feel Xander’s finger start to press inside my ass, I instinctively tense up.

Xander pauses. “You have to relax and let me in, sweetheart. Otherwise, this won’t work.”

Tearing my lips away from Bastian, I bury my head in his shoulder as I try to force my muscles to relax. It must work because Xander resumes slowly pushing into me. It’s hard to remember how to breathe when I feel so full from just a single finger.

But as I focus on my breathing, the burning pain slowly fades until I feel a pleasure more intense than anything I’ve ever felt. By the time he adds a second one and then a third, I’m trying to push back to take him deeper.

Chuckling at my eagerness, Xander pumps his fingers into me a few more times before he withdraws completely. I let out an embarrassing whine at the loss of him, but I only have to wait a beat until I feel the head of his dick at my entrance and his hands digging into my hips hard enough to leave marks.

As he slowly starts entering my ass, I do my best not to tense up at the flash of pain. When he’s fully inside, I let out a whimper at how full I feel. It feels like the two of them are going to split me in half.

Xander stills, giving me time to get used to him. “How are you doing?”

“So full,” I pant.

“Too much?” Bastian rumbles from beneath me.

I mutely shake my head because, if anything, it’s starting to be not enough. I need them to start moving. Pushing my ass back against Xander, we both groan at how good it feels. He takes the hint and slowly withdraws before thrusting into my ass harder than before. Bastian starts driving into me, too. He syncs his movements with Xander so that I’m always filled by one of them. My fingers curl in the sheets as all I can do is desperately try to hold on as they use my body.

As our sweat-slicked bodies move as one, it’s not long before I’m close to coming. But I need one thing to push me over the edge. “Bite me,” I demand. Both of them stop moving, and I groan in frustration as my climax slips just out of reach again.

They don’t say anything for a long moment, and I start to regret mentioning anything.

Before I can take it back, Bastian exhales raggedly. “I feel like I should be trying to talk you out of bonding in the heat of the moment, but, fuck, do I wanna bite your pretty little shoulder and add my mark to Kai’s. Are you gonna be the voice of reason, twinnie?”

“Fuck no. I’m not going to talk Briar out of her probably poor life decision to bond with me. I want it too much. Just… are you sure, sweetheart?” His voice is so hesitant, like he can’t believe that I’d truly want to mate with him. My heart aches for him.

I shake my head. “It’s not a bad life decision, Xander, and I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life.”

Taking me at my word, they resume mercilessly thrusting into me. Bastian lowers his face to my shoulder at the same time as I feel Xander’s teeth dig into my other side. As one, they bite down. I scream as my orgasm hits me full force. My vision goes hazy as wave after wave of pleasure sweeps over me and I clench down on their cocks. The sensation is so intense that I worry I’ll never surface again.

What feels like an eternity later, I can finally pry my lids open to see Bastian with his head thrown back and eyes squeezed shut. He’s still pounding into me, as is Xander. Like last time, my wolf takes control temporarily, and I clamp my teeth around Bastian’s shoulder. His eyes open in surprise before he slams me down on his dick and comes in me with a shout. The bond snaps into place as soon as I lift my head to look at him.

Reaching back for Xander, I grab the only body part I really can and bring his hand up to my mouth. I bite down hard on the inside of his wrist and taste his coppery blood as I complete the bond with him. His thrusts stutter before he finishes in my ass with a groan. Warm cum spills out as he works himself in and out of me a few more times before stilling.

All three of us are breathing heavily as we come down from our orgasms. Bastian and Xander somehow coordinate well enough to roll us so we’re on our sides with both of them still in me.

When we’re settled with Xander spooning me and Bastian cuddled up against me from the front, Xander leans down to rasp, “I haven’t gotten the chance to tell you yet, but I love you, Briar. So goddamn much it hurts. You’re everything I needed but never let myself want. You’ve helped me see things in a few months that I struggled to see clearly for almost fifteen years. You never gave up on me, even when I really fucking deserved it, and it only made me love you more. I know we didn’t get off to a great start, but I will spend the rest of my life proving to you that you made the right choice.”

I let out an exhausted chuckle. “I love you, too, Xander. And you don’t have to prove anything to me. I already know I made the right choice, and I wouldn’t trade our type of love for anything. You can be prickly on the outside, but underneath it all, you are one of the most devoted, loving, sweet, and caring men that I’ve ever met. I’ll never give up on you as long as I’m still breathing. Promise.”

Xander cups my face and tilts it back until he can press a sweet kiss to my lips that I get lost in. After a long moment, he lets me go and resumes spooning me. I start to drift off between two of my mates.

My last thought before sleep pulls me under is that I’m willing to do whatever is needed to make sure my mates and I get the happily ever after that seems so out of reach right now. I refuse to roll over and let the Knights and Ryker take that away from me too.

CHAPTER20

BRIAR

“Watching over my shoulder doesn’t make me go any faster,” Malachi dryly comments from his spot at one of the tables in the Wyldhart library.
