“That’s what we’re doing right now.” Nikolai flicked his hand toward us. “Discussing it. This offer won’t last long, so I suggest you give me an answer soon. I’m not known for my patience.”
“Don’t do it,”Bellamy said through our mind link.
“You’re only saying that because you know you’re the one he’s going to choose,”Daman responded.“Pretty boy.”
“Can you blame me? Sex with dragons is amazing, especially if they’re in their hybrid forms, but I have no desire to marry one.”
I stayed out of the discussion since I was already wed. Galen did too.
“We need allies,”Alastair interrupted them.“And the ice clan has over ten thousand warriors ready to fight. It would be unwise to refuse the offer.”
“You marry him, then,”Bellamy said.
“I will accept your proposal,” Alastair told the ice king. I felt his heart aching as he said the words. He was in no emotional state to marry someone, not when he was still mourning Joseph’s death. But he made the sacrifice so none of the others would have to.
“Actually,” Warrin interjected, lifting his gaze. “I’ve given it some thought, and I have already chosen one of you.” He looked over my shoulder. “Your name is Daman, yes?”
Daman gaped at him. “Why the fuck do you want to marry me?”
“Because you’re the most beautiful,” Warrin answered.
Bellamy scoffed, which earned him a light shove from Raiden. Gray was asleep on Galen’s lap, and his head rested against Simon, who sat close beside him. Galen had pulled his mate’s chair as close as possible. I understood the instinct. I wasn’t even fully mated yet with Kyo and felt just as protective over him.
“I…” Daman crossed his arms and turned his head to the side. Though it was harder to see because of his darker complexion, his face was a little flushed. “Whatever. I accept.”
Out of all of us, Daman had been chosen. How did that affect Envy? He was used to staying in the background, being overlooked, with the exception of when he danced and stripped at Konnar’s club. I tried to get a read on his emotions and couldn’t.
“Excellent,” Nikolai said, clapping his hands together once. “The wedding is set for the winter solstice. All of you are welcome to journey with him when he comes to my palace, but I advise you to dress warmly. The specifics of the alliance will be discussed at a later date. For now, let’s return to the celebration.”

Moonlight kissed Kyo’s skin as our naked bodies tangled in the sheets, my cock deep inside of him. The balcony door was open, letting in the gentle breeze and the scents it carried—salt water from the sea and flowers from the palace gardens.
My favorite smell though? The one that came from him. Water lilies mixed with the sake he’d drank at the reception dinner.
“Fuck me just like that, Red.” Kyo hooked a leg around me as I rolled him to his back and thrust into him.
My soul purred as I propped his ass up and took him deeper. Binding magic flowed through my bloodstream, and my head spun from the intensity of it. It seemed like I wasn’t only feeling my pleasure, but I was feeling Kyo’s as well.
“Goddamn this is amazing,” I said.
He cracked a smile before emitting a soft moan.
When Kyo peered up at me, his orange eyes faintly glowed. He had told me before that dragons mated in their hybrid forms. It was their way of laying themselves bare before their mate. And so, I had asked for him to stay exactly as he was—so I could love every part of him.
“You’re mine,” I said, snapping my hips forward over and over again.
“I’m yours.” He gripped my sides, and his clawed fingertips grazed my skin.
His tight clench felt fucking incredible around my cock. I couldn’t get enough. I melded our mouths together as I canted my hips and fucked him harder. As we kissed, I caressed the curve of his horn, loving the strangled little sound that vibrated against my lips in response.
“Come here,” I said before sitting back on my knees and pulling him onto my lap so that he straddled me.
Kyo rode my cock, our gazes locked. “The sex feels different this time.”
“It’s the binding magic,” I panted. “Do you feel it moving through you?”
“Mhm. I feel something else too. It’s big.”
