“I will.”

“And be fucking careful.”

“I always am, aren’t I?”

“Until recently, yes. That’s what worries me. This shift in you.”

“All is well,” Kai assured him.

I stepped back as Nyx went to him and wrapped his arms around him, as the two of them reconciled.

It was interesting to see just how impacted Kai had been by them being in a bad place. It had caused him great upset, and it hadn’t even been going on that long. Nyx was clearly an Achilles Heel of his.

When they released one another and Nyx went to step back, I reacted and grasped his hips in an iron grip. A gasp escaped him, along with an arousing tremble as he felt my hands on him through that snug navy shirt of his. Not as snug and as sexy as those black leather pants that molded to his delicious ass so enticingly, though.

Kai’s eyes darkened and he pushed off the tree and slid his fingers into Nyx’s vibrant-blue hair. “Let us make things up to you, hmm?”

“Oh, damn,” Nyx breathed, and I heard his pulse pick up.Mmm.

I loved the little reactions from him.

Although he did have issues with his own powers and had the whole repression thing going on from that aspect, the rest was out in the open with him, so open and honest. Vulnerable. And it called to me like it first had that night he’d gotten caught dreamwalking me.

“You want that, babe?” I growled at his ear, as I palmed his tight ass, feeling up all that leather basically molded to his skin.

Kai ran his fingers over Nyx’s gorgeous horns. I knew them to react to emotional intensity and they could pulse with dark energy from his demonic nature of his Incubus side, enhancing his abilities. But they also acted like extra-sensory receptors to fear, lust, and magic. It was an extremely intimate act to touch his sensitive horns.

He trembled for us, a breathy and almost pleading, “Yes” falling from his pouty lips.

Kai’s eyes locked with mine and he smirked darkly. And a little sadistically. Par for the course with him, as I’d come to understand. From my observations over the last few days from being at the Academy, it had become known to me that Kai didn’t share that side of him with many. But he’d done that with me from the get-go. It was as intriguing as it was oddly thrilling.

“Watch yourself,” Kai warned Nyx, moving to release his horns, but Nyx grasping his hands and holding him to them, little needy pleas spilling from his lips. “Our new dragon comrade is rather worked up because of striking out with Ariana.”

“I didn’tstrike out,”I bit back.

“You also didn’t get what you wanted. And you experienced that devastating frustration that I’ve been enduring for years on end with her shutting down. You were also on the on-ramp before it was abruptly shut down.”

“I was the one who pulled off that ramp.”

“Worried you’d tear into her while your beastly state was active and have her hating you as much as she thinks she hates me? Worried that she’d see you’re actually worse than me, hmm?”

“Shut the fuck up.”

He grinned at me smugly.

I reached past Nyx between us and grasped Kai’s cock through his pants.

It worked, making him jolt in surprise, and having him shut his fucking venomous mouth.

He grunted as I called my talons forth briefly and used them to rip open his pants, giving me unfettered access, wherein I slid my hand inside and pulled out his cock that was already rock-hard.

“Like that, is it?” he asked, his eyes burning into mine.

“Shit,” Nyx groaned, sinking back against me, his ass rubbing against my cock as he looked down and watched me as I twisted my hand around Kai’s shaft.

“It’s like that,” I confirmed.

As I teased his cock, he ripped open Nyx’s pants and shoved them down. He grabbed his cock, then commanded Nyx, “Spread your ass open so Vorzyr can spit inside and fill it with his saliva as lube.”
