Page 87 of What did you do?

Watch how they hunger for you.Weare infatuated with you.

A sharp breath cut through my lungs at Mendax speaking through the bond.

Powered by curiosity and horniness, I licked my lips and moved them over Mendax, covering his shaft with my mouth until I gagged. I hadn’t taken all of him, and I doubted I could, but suns, did I want to unravel him.

A hand brushed the base of my neck, sending chills across my skin. He gathered the few locks in his hand with the rest of my hair. The action sent a million tiny tingles all over my scalp and body as I slid my mouth back down his length.

I grew more and more eager, nearly forgetting anyone else was in the room. Mendax’s small, almost inaudible moans made me suck and hum deeper, with the hopes of causing another one.

“You are everything to me, Caly,” Mendax said through a shortened breath, his hand pulling at my hair. “I’m going to be rougher with you, pet. Will you be a good girl and take it?”

I pulled my mouth free from his cock to shoot him a challenging glare. I nodded, maintaining eye contact with him while I spit on the head of his cock and slurped my mouth around him, watching him hiss and curse when I lightly drug my teeth along his sensitive skin.

His hand tightened painfully around my hair, holding my head in place as he fucked my throat. I struggled to breathe, gagging as my eyes watered and tears ran down my face.

“She is not yours, Aurelius. She will never be yours. For eternity, she is only mine.” He let out a breathy heave of air while he continued thrusting into my throat. “Do you see how divinely she takes me, Walter?” he growled breathily. “It’s because she is fit perfectly for me every way. Can you see how flawless she is? Her throat was made to fit my cock. If you ever so much asthink about doing something to ruin that, I will rip out your throat, brother or not.”

Mendax tugged my head back, away from him, and his cock pulled out of my mouth with a wet pop.

“Lay back,” he rasped. “Remove the rest of your clothes and lean against that chair.” He nodded slowly to a wing-backed chair, diagonal to the sofa the men leaned against.

“I—”

“Now, pet. I can’t hold the guards forever, and I still need to make certain a few things are understood before I leave you.” He peeled his gaze from me to focus on Eli while he tucked himself back into his pants, leaving them undone, so his still-hard cock was barely concealed.

Eli glared back at him in a silent challenge. The corner of Mendax’s mouth quirked up into a self-assured grin.

“You will never be able to deter me from loving her. Without killing the both of us, you will nevereverbe able to tear us apart from one another. Our tie is as unbreakable as my love for her.” Eli clenched his jaw as he looked to me. “And I don’t need to make an embarrassment of her to prove that.”

I flinched. My nails dug into my palms until they bent, shame tingling my cheeks for having experienced any pleasure at what was happening, embarrassed that I had somehow let my untamed bits and pieces peek out in front of him. I didn’t want Eli or Walter to think of me that way. I wanted to be good and wholesome in their eyes—not the broken, empty murderer that I really was.

I needed to officially be deemed Seelie.

Embarrassment and shame tried to take me, but the faerie mead drowned it in a pool of need, leaving me only with a throbbing ache between my thighs.

Power.

An embarrassment.Eli’s words echoed in my head.

My eyes snapped to Mendax, who was watching me with a tight smile.

You need to learn as much as they do the power you hold over them…over me. I will not leave you here without me until they understand—you are the one in control while I am gone.

They are both fighters. They will respect and bow to your every whim and command if you dominate them.

They have no control over you or anything that you do.

Butterflies tickled my insides.

The beat of the guards pounding down the walls of the hallway felt like the heavy beat of drums.

To Walter and Eli, it appeared that he was claiming and dominating me, but he wasn’t—at least not entirely. He was showing me how much power I held without actually possessing any powers.

Mendax let out an arrogant chuckle. “For being her best friend, you really don’t know her at all.”

My neck cracked, it had snapped back to look at Mendax so quickly. He calmed my hazy worry with a knowing wink.

“Yes, she’s always laughing and smiling with you, isn’t she? Oh no, wait. That’s me,” Eli bit out. “You bring her only anger and pain. She’ll get tired of that real quick.”
