I felt the foreign object Koschei had inserted begin to push its way out of my skin and into the waiting hands of Vasi’s doll. As soon as it left my body, extreme relaxation swept over me, accompanied by a bone-tiredness that had my eyelids instantly closing.

When I awoke, I found myself in the softest bed I’d ever laid in. Way more pillows than necessary were piled under my head, and Vasi and Tan were dozing on either side of me, enticingly half-dressed. Carefully lifting my head so as not to wake them, I peered over Vasi’s shoulder to find a shirtless Nox on her other side. Unlike the others, he was wide awake and staring up at the stone ceiling, a deep frown apparent even under his thick beard.

“I thought you’d died on the altar in there,” he mumbled, making me sit up fully so I could better look at him. “I mean,reallydied...not whatever the fuck happened to you when you took a swim in that sludgy river.”

“Rena knew what she was doing, and we couldn’t very well leave Koschei’s death inside me,” I gently explained. I was positively tickled that my usually gruff friend was so concerned over my well-being. Nox and my relationship could get combative, and that had been amplified since my mother’s death and then again after meeting Vasi. However, we were the brother neither of us had, and I knew he would take a bullet for me, as I would for him.

Although, I hope it never comes to that.

“I know,” he exhaled, glancing over at me before fixing his gaze to the ceiling again. “It had to be done so you could leave the Nav with Vasi and Tan.”

Confused by his phrasing, I murmured, “And you too, Nox. Vasi needs all of us to…”

“Mmm…brilliant, you’re up.” Tan’s sleepy voice sounded a moment before his hands were grabbing at me, attempting to pull me back down to the pillows. “Let’s play, Acey.” I chuckled and batted his hands away, wondering if he was awake enough to realize there were others in bed with us. Although, knowing Tan, he may not have cared.

“Yes, I want to play as well,” Vasi murmured, running her little hand up the inside of my thigh, making me instantly harden. “I want to play withallof you.”

Nox and I sized each other up in the ensuing silence of Vasi’s request. While I was well aware he and Tan shared women in the past, this would be unfamiliar territory for the two of us.

And I’m not sure how I feel about it.

“Relax,Gueneshem...”Tan was now sitting up with me, kissing a distracting path up my bare shoulder to my neck. “If Noxy so much as looks at your dick, I’ll punch him in the nuts for you.”

I huffed a laugh, as Nox being interested in me was the last thing I was worried about. “It’s not that,” I began, realizing I was about to possibly ruin the moment and simultaneously sound like a possessive asshole. But we were a team, and that required being open and honest with each other, even if I didn’t always practice that myself. “I’m still pissed off about Nox fucking Vasi.”

My words hung in the air like a confession, but I forced myself to weather the discomfort. Nox had been simply awful to Vasi when we first met her, and his disrespectful behavior continued for weeks afterward. I understood something shifted between them while they were trapped in the Facility together. However, unless he was planning on walking over hot coals carrying a cross, he hadn’t done enough to earn the right to touch her.

Of course, I’m one to talk with how I treated Tan…

Vasi rose to sitting, her gemlike eyes narrowing in my direction, wordlessly reminding me she was the boss of all of us. And most certainly the master of herself. Just as she opened her mouth to no doubt put me in my place, Nox interrupted, “I’ll pillow fight you for her.”

Did he just say…

Before I could fully register his words, an enormous feather pillow slammed into my face with enough force to knock me backward. Vasi yelped in surprise as Tan scrambled over me. “I will defend your honor, my love!” he cried, before throwing his full weight into Nox’s chest and taking the larger man to the floor.

“My fight isn’t withyou,you fucking twat waffle!” Nox tried to sound angry, but he was laughing at whatever Tan was doing to him down there.

“Ya, well, Vasi likes to watch her men together, so I’m going to rub myself all over you like a bearskin rug until she comes.”

Vasi was now giggling—giggling—as she grabbed her own pillow and joined the fray, unconcerned with who got hit as she swung wildly. Tan quickly abandoned his quest for vengeance in favor of grabbing Vasi around the waist and tossing her forcefully onto the bed. Her slip rode up as she landed and, like a moth to the flame, Tan dove in head-first.

I want that.

Something primal flared up in me at seeing Tan’s mouth on Vasi’s pussy. His tongue lapped up her wetness as she writhed beneath him, claws tangling in his hair. The lust roaring through our shared bond was so intense, my vision narrowed until all I could think about was fucking both of them.

Growling, I dropped to my elbows and spread Vasi wider, jostling Tan to the side so I could join him in his feast. My tongue eagerly traced her folds before dipping inside, and I couldn’t help but moan at the glorious taste of her. Tan made a needy sound, and I turned my head so our tongues clashed—temporarily abandoning our duty to kiss, coating each other in Vasi’s scent.

“Nox,” Vasi gasped, even as she reached down to grab my curls, forcing me to return my focus to her. “You need to come join us…”

Chapter 34

Vasilisa

Nox slowly circled the bed, as if weighing his options, failing to understand I wasn’t making a casual request.

“Now,Nox,” I snarled, bucking as one of the men between my thighs slid their fingers inside of me.

“That salty mouth of yours,” Nox chuckled, positioning himself so he loomed over my upturned face. “I can’t wait to fill it.” Wrestling himself free, he grabbed my hair and roughly tilted my head backward over the side of the bed before unceremoniously shoving his cock in as far as it could go.
