His eyes flared with anger, and in the blink of an eye, his hand was around my throat and my back was slammed against a rock, forcing the air from my body. My own hand found his throat and I squeezed just as tightly. Our faces were so close that I could see the specks of dark brown in his eyes, which were usually unnoticeable.
“Hate. You,” he gritted out through clenched teeth, but my eyes widened when I felt his hard cock pressing against mine. With my free hand, I roughly grabbed a handful of his hair. With one last glance into his eyes, I decided I knew what I was seeing there, and I shuddered as I felt the same desire coursing through my body.
I pulled his head closer, my lips ghosting over his, the touch so soft and gentle it could've been imagined. He shoved me back, which I’d anticipated. Leaning against the wall, I panted as I caught my breath. He turned his back on me, his movements jerky.
“Don't fucking walk away from me,” I snarled, my voice low and sharp.
“Sucks to be ignored, doesn't it?” He tossed me a middle finger as he walked toward Bram, who was open-mouthed with wildly lustful eyes that locked on mine. Bram gave me a little nod, and somehow I knew exactly what he was saying. Fix it. I'd hurt Faris—despite it being indirectly, he was hurt. I was still pissed though.
Charging toward him, I clasped his shoulder and spun him to face me. My hands gripped his face and I slammed him into Bram, caging him between the two of us. Bram groaned loudly, and I stared down at Faris.
“I didn't know what to say to you. I didn't know about you, because Fischer never elaborated. Of course you'd hate me. But what Fischer and I have, or had, back when you were a part of him—that was between me and Fish. I'm sorry that you were involved without your consent, but you're here now. So just fucking tell me, Faris. Tell me what you want, because right now, the hard dick that's rubbing against mine tells me that you want me, but the look on your face says you'd rather die than let me fuck you. What. Do. You. Want?!”
“Oomph,” I grunted as he threw himself at me, wrapping his arms around my neck and taking my mouth in a scorching kiss that made my head spin. I could feel his tongue ring, foreign and enticing on my tongue.
“Fuck yes,” Bram breathed, as my fingers fumbled with Faris' belt. His hips were already rocking hard against me, our tongues twisting and tangling as he ripped at my hair like a wild animal. His jeans hit the floor with a clang from the buckle, and since he was already shirtless, he was gloriously naked.
Bram pulled Faris against his chest, his large hands running over his torso, dipping down to his thighs but avoiding the length of him that was weeping for attention. I gripped Faris' jaw and turned his head toward Bram, watching as they kissed with heat that had my balls boiling and my heart racing.
“Fuck, you two are sexy together,” I groaned, palming my cock. Peeks of their tongues battling nearly had me coming without a single stroke. The way they kissed told me they'd done it before.
“You want him, Baby Fang?” Bram whispered against his lips, his eyes locked on mine.
“I want to kill him,” Faris replied, and Bram chuckled.
“I’d like to see you fuckin’ try,” I growled. His fangs glinted in the glow of the fire, and he hissed as my hand cupped his balls. His arm snapped out, and he fisted the collar of my shirt, pulling me against his chest. The sound of ripping fabric was loud in the cavern, and the cool air hit my bare chest as my shirt fell from me in tatters.
“Feisty,” I taunted, suddenly blinking in confusion when I found myself flat on my back with a piercing pain in my neck. I groaned, pushing my hips up, seeking friction. Faris was pressed against me, his hands pinning my wrists firmly above my head as he drank deeply from my throat. Hazily, I focused on Bram who had now lost his clothes, his hand wrapped firmly around his large cock as he watched the erotic scene unfolding before him. He moaned, which caught Faris’ attention and he removed his fangs from my skin, turning to look at the big demon. I took my shot.
With a surge of adrenaline, I flipped us, putting Faris beneath me and I grabbed a handful of his hair. I licked the side of his face, which seemed to really piss him off and that just made my cock even harder. Next to his ear, I whispered, “You ever sink those teeth into me again without my permission, you will regret it.”
A sharp pain exploded on my ass, and I sat up so fast my head spun. Faris was immediately frozen beneath me, his eyes wide.
“Holy shit. You just spanked Sloane,” Bram gasped down at him, but by the sounds he was making, that little turn of events definitely wasn’t putting a damper on his arousal.
“Really?” I said in a low voice, lifting a brow at the man sprawled out on the cool stone floor.
He lifted his chin. “You had it coming.”
I grinned wickedly at him, feeling a surge of respect for him standing his ground. But holy shit if my palm wasn’t itching with the urge to mark his ass up hard enough to rival the color of a blood moon.
“Guppy.”
I loved hearing her say the name she’d given me. It was always said with adoration, as though I was the only one she had eyes for. I knew she was made for more than one man though, thanks to that ability she had to make each one of us feel so important.
“Guppy!”
Startling, I cracked open an eye and blinked. The room was dark, the light of the moon slipping through the cracks of the curtains and providing just enough light to make out Saige’s face.
“What is it?” I whispered, sitting up and reaching for her. I didn’t want to wake the others. It was very unlike her to wake up in the middle of the night. A horrible thought had my stomach dropping. “Is it the babies?” I hauled her into my lap, running a hand over her belly.
“No, no,” she said softly, grabbing my hand. “We’re fine. But I’m feeling a twinge of fear coming from Bram and Sloane. I think we should check on them…”
I breathed a sigh of relief for my mate and the little ones. “They were drinking last I saw them. They’re probably just drunk, but let’s go make sure.” She gave me a grateful smile and we both eased out of bed, leaving Cam and Kai fast asleep.
We quickly slipped on some clothes and headed downstairs. The cottage was dark, aside from the few small plug in lights that came on automatically. All was quiet, and Saige slipped her hand into mine.
“Let me try to reach out mentally first,” I murmured when we entered the kitchen. My power rose up within me and my eyes fell shut as I felt through the endless nothingness where everyone’s psyches existed.
