“No surprise there.” Nico gripped Onyx’s hips, stilling him. His hooded expression told a very different story. One Onyx chose to play into.
“I’m slick and ready, pull out the plug and slide in.” Onyx canted his hips in invitation.
Struggle twisted Nico’s features, and Onyx grinned, showing fang. The exact moment Nico gave in, his lust tore down the bond. He pulled the plug from Onyx, tossing it away, and Onyx sank onto his mate’s rigid cock.
They came together fast and hard, every sensation shared through their bond. Onyx burned with pure pleasure, pulse racing, and magic whirling around them like a tornado. They came as one, eyes locked, panted breaths mingling.
“Fuck, it’s going to be a lot harder to leave now.” Nico buried his face in Onyx’s hair and huffed him like he was trying to get high.
How had either of Onyx’s brothers maintained a balanced life when they could have been in bed with their mates twenty-four-seven? He might have to ask.
If the threat looming had been less serious, Onyx wouldn’t have bothered doing the right thing. “You’re right, but we have to go. Otherwise, Ash might make good on his threat to track me.”
Nico chuckled. “We can’t have that.” He patted Onyx’s ass, and Onyx rose from his lap.
Showering wouldn’t lead to anywhere but more orgasms, so they tidied quickly with the help of a little magic and got dressed.
“I’m not planning to keep my hands off you,” Onyx warned as they climbed the stairs to the roof.
Nico chuckled. “I can feel how horny you are thought the bond. At this rate, we aren’t going to be much help.”
“It’ll be fine. We can hang out in a guest bedroom until Ash finds our first targets. Then we’ll be good to go.”
All in all, it wasn’t a terrible way to spend the night. Onyx pushed open the door to the roof, looking forward to filling Dante’s large house with the moans of his and Nico’s mating.
The night was as dark as it got in the city, late enough for relative quiet if you didn’t count the distant sounds of traffic. There was so much for Onyx and Nico to explore, and the city seemed to stretch out before them, twinkling in invitation.
Nico followed Onyx outside, his own lust heating the bond. “I’d normally say no to hiding away and fucking while everyone else does the work, but I can tell how much you want me. It’s like your desire has become mine. This bond is wild, and I can’t resist.”
Onyx’s insides heated. He might as well be floating. Nico’s knowledge of every one of his needy desires freed him in a way he hadn’t thought possible.
He turned, facing Nico, smiling wide, when pain flared in his back, sharp and consuming. Onyx jolted, frozen as his heart stopped.What the fuck?
Nico’s happy expression transformed into shock, fear shooting down the bond. “Onyx!” Nico lurched forward, arms outstretched. There was a flash of light, and Nico jolted, lightning striking his chest. His eyes rolled back, and agony overwhelmed the bond.
Onyx struggled to scream, to move. Pain radiated from his back as he was struck again.
He never should have trusted Luc. His guard had been so low, he hadn’t even seen him lurking on the roof.
Nico crumbled to the ground, killed temporarily by the lightning strike. Magic swelled, electrifying their connection as Nico’s body began to heal, but not as rapidly as Onyx’s.
Still, Onyx’s heart healed too slowly for him to regain control of his body. A bag slid over his head, enveloping him in complete darkness. Another shock rattled his bones as something pricked his arm, strong hands holding him tight.
His bicep burned like he’d been stung. Onyx’s mind fogged. Fuck, it must be a potion. He stumbled, only then realizing he could move again.
Onyx fell against a firm chest, and someone grabbed him around the middle. It wasn’t Nico. Onyx could sense the healing magic working, but with Nico unconscious, their bond was quiet. Why couldn’t it heal his mate as quickly as it healed him?
Onyx opened his mouth, but no words came. All sensation faded, and he forgot what he’d been about to snarl. The blackness of the hood consumed him, and he knew no more.

ONYX
Onyx sucked in a sharp breath,choking on cloth. Something covered his face. Where was he?
He remembered the rooftop.
Nico!
