It wasn’t until she began squirming between them that he began to move. Wrapping her hair around his fist, Dominic pulled her head toward him so he could claim her mouth. While they shared a passionate kiss, Ronan began thrusting inside of her. He set the rhythm, moving her between them so each time one of them pulled out, the other pushed in. It was an erotic dance of friction and heat, feeding the inferno burning within all three of them.
When she broke the kiss to bite Dominic’s neck, he let out a rumbling growl as she drank from him. Ronan felt their pleasure through their bond, and his hips jerked as he thrust into herfaster. She stroked her tongue over the bite mark on Dominic’s neck, causing him to shiver, then she whimpered a protest when they both suddenly pulled out of her.
She let out a loud gasp when they flipped her around, then moaned as Dominic’s cock slowly pushed into her ass. Once he was fully sheathed inside of her, he lifted her out of the water until they were sitting on the edge of the pool. Using his own legs, he spread her thighs wider, allowing Ronan to step between them.
Her back arched as Ronan thrust his cock into her pussy. Passion and pleasure conversed as he fucked into her with wild abandon, his movements no longer hindered by the thick water. They moved together in perfect harmony, taking and giving pleasure in equal measure.
Ronan leaned down to take her mouth in another heated kiss. When her lips trailed down his neck, he let out a low growl of approval. He held his breath as her fangs sank into his flesh, and he felt a deep sense of satisfaction as their bond strengthened. As soon as she released him, he kissed her again, sharing the taste of his blood with her.
When they sensed she was close, they struck without warning, both of them sinking their fangs into her neck at the same time. She screamed as their bites made her come, her body clamping down on them hard enough to trigger their own releases. Dominic pulled back so only the head of his own cock was lodged in her ass as he came, and he stroked the rest of his shaft as his cum filled her.
Ronan gripped her hips hard as he surged all the way inside of her, and she cried out as the base of his cock began to swell, locking him inside of her. Waves of ecstasy surged through him as the hard, hot pulses of his seed filled her pussy. When she went limp between them, they wrapped their arms around her, holding her tight.
With the mating ritual complete, they were truly bonded now.
And with that bond came a surety that nothing would ever come between them.
Chapter Seventeen
By the timethey made it back to the palace, word had spread throughout the kingdom that Ronan and Dominic had found their true mate. That was confirmed as their three large dragons soared through the sky, circling over the palace before they landed.
After they had finished making love in the grotto, they had moved into the top pool to cool their heated skin. While they had relaxed, they discussed how to capture the traitors back at the palace. Their plan wasn’t perfect, but it was good enough to make those who betrayed them reveal themselves.
At least, they hoped it would.
If not, there were other, more violent ways to weed them out.
While Kylie hoped it didn’t come to that, she was ready to do whatever it took to eradicate the threat for good.
The Palace of the Western Forest had been constructed using a strong black metal forged from ore found deep in the mountain and white stones that had been polished until they gleamed silver in the moonlight shining down from the two purple moons overhead.
The palace was a blend of strength and elegance, with towering spires that reached towards the sky and intricate carvings that adorned its walls. The black metal gave it a formidable appearance, while the polished white stones added a touch of ethereal beauty.
While the palace wasn’t as large as some of the other kingdoms, it was more than adequate to house the royal family and a selection of the guards and staff. Surrounding the palace were lush gardens filled with exotic plants and flowers that bloomed in vibrant colors. Beyond the gardens was the sacred purple lake and the grove of glowing fruit trees. While it lookedspectacular from above, Kylie couldn’t wait to see it from the ground.
They’d flown over the city hidden within the forest on the way to the palace, and Kylie was impressed by the sheer size of it. People gasped in shock as they watched the three dragons soar through the sky.
The bright red dragon was flanked by two larger dragons with glowing gold eyes and scales that ranged from dark brown to a shimmering bronze. Kylie thought her mates’ dragon forms were beautiful, but they loved the bright red color of her scales and glowing green eyes even more.
When they landed in front of the palace, they immediately shifted back into their regular forms. The crowd of people who had gathered there gasped in delight at their display of power. Kylie was glad she had chosen to create a green dress like the one she had worn when she had met the Goddess of the Moons in the Isle of Dreams. The beautiful gown gave her an added boost of confidence that helped her deal with meeting so many new people.
As a famous singer, being surrounded by large crowds was second nature to her. However, the citizens of the Western Forest were completely unaware of her fame, and she knew that first impressions were crucial. She was their new princess, a title that carried weight but did not guarantee respect or acceptance.
Ronan and Dominic disagreed with her, but nothing was going to change her mind on the subject. Earning the trust and admiration of the Western Forest's inhabitants would be a challenge, but she was determined to prove herself worthy of her new role.
And showing up as a fire-breathing dragon was certainly a good start.
When they entered the palace, Kylie was struck by the sheer splendor of it. The main entrance led into a great hall thathad chandeliers made of light crystals that sparkled like stars, casting a warm glow over the polished stone floor. Images depicting the kingdom’s long history were carved into the walls, and there were large windows that would allow natural light to flood into the massive room during the day.
Caldrons of fire were placed around the outskirts of the room, adding warmth and light. What seemed like hundreds of people had gathered there, filling the long tables that were set up for the mating celebration that had been hastily thrown together to welcome her to the kingdom.
While most of the people were smiling at them, Kylie could feel an underlying current of tension in the air. An ominous feeling suddenly swept through her. The setting had a decidedly Red Wedding-esque vibe that she wasn’t too pleased with. She just hoped that this scenario wouldn’t end up as tragic as the popular TV show scene had. But if it did, she and her mates would damn well end up the victors.
“A more formal mating celebration will be held later, where you will be able to meet our friends from other kingdoms,”Dominic told her.“But for tonight, we just need to gather the majority of our warriors in one place for the reckoning.”
“Don’t worry. I understand,”Kylie assured him for what seemed like the millionth time.
Her mates kept apologizing to her for using their mating celebration as a means to catch the traitors, as if it were some kind of insult to her. She had told them honestly that it didn’t matter to her.
