He sniggers to himself.
‘Grow up,’ I laugh, and he shakes his head.
‘Never gonna happen.’
He goes into the bathroom, and I hear the water start a moment later. He comes out to grab his glass a second later and I regard him thoughtfully.
‘Has your dragon spoken to you? About her, I mean.’
He freezes and, for a split second, he looks like a deer when it realizes it’s about to be lunch.
‘Nope.’
Brax closes the bathroom door, and I stare at where he was just standing.

I feel safe.
The sensation is so alien. When was the last time I felt like this? It’s been a long time. Before I was taken from my home. Years.
I keep my eyes closed, wondering why spending a short time with two dragons I barely know and engaging in what amounts to a sex marathon would have this result.

I nod, my cheeks heating as I sit up and realize I’m naked.
Of course I am. Sex marathon. Two men. Hours and hours of pleasure. My lower regions contract at the memories and I push them away, not understanding my body’s response.
As I look at the dragon man sitting so close, I find that, past the odd feelings of security, I don’t know what to do, what to think.
‘What happens now?’ I ask in a small voice.
Brax looks me over at his leisure, eyes lingering on my lips.
‘Now, we see if it took. If we’re done or need to keep scenting you.’
More sex?
The prospect isn’t abhorrent.
‘How—’
