When Gideon moves his hand down between Luca’s legs, pressing against the smooth space behind his balls and rubbing over his hole, Luca thinks he might be closer to getting that dick in his ass. Firm hands flip him over onto his belly, with a raspy “Ass up” and a loud smack to Luca’s hip.

His ass is still tender from his morning’s tantrum-induced spanking, so the pain zings right down to his toes. He can’t contain his moan. “Still sore? If I remember right, I think you earned another ten.”

Luca bites his bottom lip and moans when Gideon uses one hand to pull his cheek to one side and uses two fingers to slap his hole. “Should we do it like this? Count.”

“Gideon…” Luca both hates and loves this kind of spanking. He hates that it hurts much worse than the usual spanking but loves how it makes the actual fuckingburn perfectly.“One…two…”

By the time he’s at ten, there are hot tears and snot on his face, and the burning heat of his hole radiates outward in white, fiery sparks.

“So desperate for it, such a needy baby.” Gideon croons and licks a hot stripe over his hole. It stings, pushing him closer to the coming untouched for the second time that day.

“Need you, Alpha. Please. So empty.”

Gideon slaps Luca’s hip again with a growled, “Lube.” Luca digs a bottle out from between his bed and the wall.

“Fuck,” Gideon pops the cap, squeezing the warming lube onto his long fingers as the smell of artificial vanilla fills the space. “Fuck, Luc. Why?”

“Need him. Need you. He’s going to taste so good. Fuck me like you’re going to fuck him. Please.” Luca wiggles his ass, hoping to incite Gideon to forgo laborious prep.

Gideon growls so low and loud that Luca has goosebumps. His alpha runs his nails down his back and shoves two fingers all the way in, setting his rim on fire. The scent of vanilla and thunderstorms sends him so close to the edge that Luca thinks he might come without permission.

His soulmate knows him so well. “You don’t come until I say. You did at the hospital already, but that wasn’t your fault. Thought I was going to, too.” He grazes Luca’s prostate, sending burning pleasure outward to his toes.

“Oh fuck. That’s so hot. W–wish you could have seen him, claws out and fangs stuck in Jay’s shoulder, a-ass up-p. So pretty. And he’s ours. But I was good, I d–didn’t touch. Please, please.” Luca can’t remember why he’s saying please, andGideon pulls his fingers out, only to push three in as deep as they’ll go.

Keening, Luca slides two of his fingers into his mouth, pushing them deep into his mouth until he gags. Hole clenching, he pushes back onto his alpha’s fingers, trying to keep them inside.

When Gideon finally pulls his fingers out, he uses the rest of the lube to coat his cock, then adds a bit more directly into Luca’s hole, just to hear him squeak at the cold before smearing the excess on his thigh. “Such a pretty hole. What if someday I fuck you both at the same time? Fuck into you and then pull out and fuck right into him? Would you like for us to make our pretty Nixie come?”

“Yes, Goddess, want that. Please. Soon?”

“As soon as he’s ready, baby.” Gideon pushes the head of his perfect cock past his burning rim, sinking in, in, in. “Fuck, sohotwetperfect.” Gideon wastes no time in setting up a punishing rhythm and all Luca can do is hang on to his pillow, letting his alpha fill him to overflowing.

“Harder, Alpha. Wanna come. Wanna come. Wanna come.” Luca is back to begging, his orgasm building, burning low in his body, gathering momentum, and it’s going to be so good. “Fuck us, Sugar. Nix and I want you to come in us;on us. Please, we need you, Alpha.” And that’s all it takes; Gideon’s knot bullies it past his rim in a single hard push, and his alpha is coming.

“Come, Luca. Come for me.” His orgasm has his balls drawn up tight and his cock spurting white stripes on the blanket below him, untouched. It’s a deep aching pleasure that spreads from his dick to his toes. Gideon’s knot presses up against his prostate, and the pulsing rhythm has his cock giving one last tiny spurt.

Collapsing on Luca’s back, breath sawing in and out, Gideon finally seems in control again. He runs his hands up and downLuca’s sides before rolling them over, careful not to jostle his knot in Luca’s sore hole. There’s a familiar comfort in the touch, so Luca sighs, letting himself finally slip into his welcoming subspace.

Luca isn’t sure how long he’s out when he feels a gentle fingertip over his eyelids, and Gideon croons, “Honey, let’s have some water. Show me your pretty eyes.”

Luca gulps the water down until the bottle is empty, as Gideon presses his nose to the top of his head. He brushes his hand over Gideon’s cheek and into his hair so he can pull him down into a kiss that is at once soft and deep.

Luca loves Gideon like no other. He’s certain that they are soulmates. “You okay now? Do you want to tell me what had you running home from the hospital and fucking me within an inch of my life?”

Gideon gently turns him so he’s resting on his side so Luca can see his alpha and be seen in return. He runs a finger over Gideon’s eyebrows and down his perfect nose. Gideon smiles, pushing his hand away, “Tickles.”

Luca says nothing and just waits.

“I want him. I want him almost as much as I want you. And I don’t like it.”

“You don’tlikeit? What does that mean? He’s your mate. You want us all, right?”

“I do. I–fuck, I desire all of you, but you know that what you and I have is different. It’s not just theplay,the dominance, and the submission. We’re soulmates. I’ve known it since I first saw you, standing in the kitchen at Quest, determined to tell me that I shouldn’t put fucking cilantro in my buttermilk panna cotta. It scares me because I felt so much all at once. I’d been waiting for all of you for so long, but then there was also…justyou.They’re my fated mates, loved and treasured. But you are mybeloved.”

Luca lets his heart overflow; Gideon expresses exactly how he feels. “But…”

Rubbing a hand over his eyes, Gideon continues. “It’s not abut, as much as it is anand.Nix feels like I’m supposed to be more for him and let him be more for me. I can see it’s the same for Jay, who is finally sleeping, and his eyes have lost those dark circles despite the stress. He’s lighter.”
