Mated in the Stars (Starscale Mates #6)

Chapter Eighteen

Nelum

“You’re so beautiful when you’ve had your brain cells sucked out of your dick,” Fred whispered in my ear as he pushed himself upright and took ahold of Elio’s dick again. I let out a breathy laugh. He always made things like that – silly things – dirty things – sound like my favorite compliments. Still, I blushed. It was the heat. It had to be the fucking heat. It radiated out of my pores. My scalp felt like a mini forest fire trying to burn down the roots of my hair. He gave me a quick kiss and turned his attention to Elio while I caught my breath. Watching them kiss made me want more. I’d just come – hard too – but I wanted more. The heat and the tug and pull of the true-mate response weren’t going to give in until they made us fulfill the promises we made in the Other World.

I slid my hand over Fred’s on Elio’s dick and moved it. We stroked him together, keeping Elio hard and ready and making his breath come a little faster. Desire marked his cheeks with a flush as Fred pulled away from the kiss and met my gaze. They both stared at me, and I wanted to squirm in the best possible way. Shifting around on Elio’s leg reminded me that I was still slick. So fucking slick. Slick and ready and they were watching me squirm. I liked it when they watched. It made it better somehow. Dirtier maybe. Maybe less since I wasn’t so desperate all alone.

“Never gonna be in heat alone again,” Elio said, picking up my thoughts over the group link.

“I hope not,” I brushed a stray lock of blonde hair away from his face.

Fred grabbed a scrunchy from around the knob of the headboard and pulled Elio’s hair into a ponytail as if he did it every day. He probably did. Satisfied with his work, his gaze drifted back to me.

“Who do you want inside of you?” Fred asked.

I gulped. The question buzzed around my brain, but the answer was clear. Both of them! What else would I ever want? Both of them at the same time?

“No. Too ambitious,” my dragon shook his massive head inside his inner sanctum.

“We can get close to that,” Fred smirked and gave me a reassuring kiss.

My face burnt hot with heat and anticipation. I swallowed hard and Elio leaned forward to give me a soft kiss.

“We’ll take care of you, mate. We have you,” he whispered against my lips.

Moving away gently Elio stretched out on his side. He was a sight to behold, all lean muscle, blonde hair, and a hard dick waiting to slide inside me. He beckoned me with a wave of one long, nimble finger. I crawled to him and stretched out. He ran his cool hand over my hip. Wait. His hand wasn’t cool. I was scorching to the touch. Heat ate away at my self-control, and I kissed Elio hard as if my heart might stop beating if I didn’t kiss him long enough and maybe it would. Maybe without them I’d just fall to pieces. Now that I knew what life could be like so close to them, I didn’t want to be anywhere else or with anyone else.

“We’re right here,” Fred whispered in my ear as he settled in behind me.

His big, strong arm wrapped around my chest, and he kissed my ear before licking down to my lobe and nibbling on it. I leaned back against him, reveling in the strength of his body as his muscles flexed against me and his hard dick brushed against my ass cheek. Elio hooked his fingers under my knee and pulled it over his hip, opening me up to Fred.

Our alpha slid his hand over the curve of my hip and down to squeeze my ass cheek. Need fluttered through me as Elio’s fist found my hard cock again. I needed to do something – to give something back – but all the touching left my head spinning.

“Let us take care of you,” Fred whispered in my ear. “We got you.”

He kissed the back of my neck as his long, nimble fingers slid between my cheeks, slipping and sliding on my slick arousal. A growl vibrated in his throat and turned to a guttural purr as his digits slid down to my omegahole. I let out a long breath and dug my fingers into Elio’s hip as Fred slid them inside me. It wasn’t the first time his fingers had been there, but everything felt so intense today as if my heat had finally thrown its proverbial jizz covered hands up and started to shout because we ignored it for too long.

I pressed back against Fred’s fingers, reveling in how they slid deeper into me. I rocked against his hand, riding his fingers and thrusting into Elio’s fist. So much touching. So much perfect touching. They surrounded me and their scents made me move quicker. I needed them. I needed them now and forever. My fire burnt hot inside my dragon’s belly for them. I wanted to roar and bellow at the top of my lungs that these beautiful, giving dragons were my mates. Mine! MINE!

A little roar crawled out of my throat when Fred’s fingers abandoned my omegahole.

“Shhh… Baby. Just a second. I’m not done with you yet,” he murmured against my ear as the thick head of his hard cock brushed between my cheeks. My heart pounded in my ears. Finally! Finally. Fin-a-lly. It seemed to beat, calling out for more even as a shiver of anticipation ran down my spine.

“So slick,” Fred murmured, rocking his hips to thrust his dick between my cheeks.

Elio trailed his fingertips up and down my shaft as he sucked my bottom lip into his mouth. I ran my hand up and down his chest, back and forth until I found his heart beating in time with mine.

Mine.

The word echoed around my thoughts.

Elio was mine.

So was Fred.

They were mine.

All mine.

“Mine,” Fred growled and bit my earlobe as the thick mushroom-shaped head of his dick pushed against my needy omegahole.

“And mine,” Elio said a second later. “You belong to us. Right here with us.”

Another chill shimmied down my spine. Fred thrust forward, sinking the first few inches of his dick into my body. I bit my bottom lip, but Elio shook his head.

“I want to hear how having his dick inside you makes you feel,” he whispered.

I let go of my lip and swallowed hard trying to keep everything inside. These two made it so easy to come undone. So easy to forget any other planet existed. It was just the three of us all alone in our little world. That’s all I needed. All I might ever need. I couldn’t think further ahead than this.

Fred thrust again, sinking deeper into me and waking up nerve endings I’d forgotten existed. Maybe no one had ever woken them up quite like he did. I let out a long, happy sigh. The heat urged me on, and I rocked my hips, sliding over him slowly until my body adjusted to his girth. I clung to Elio like he was the only thing keeping me from falling off the face of the planet.

“I know he’s good,” Elio whispered, flashing me a conspiratorial grin as his fist tightened on my dick.

My body tightened around Fred, reveling in the textured scales popping up on the hard flesh of his shaft. I pushed back against him, taking as much of him into myself as my body would allow. His fingertips dug into my chest as he thrust forward again. This time he pulled all the way out and I pressed back trying to find his dick again.

“Hold still,” Fred said, his voice still deep with need as he reached between my legs to grab and stroke Elio’s hard dick. Elio kissed me softly and then leaned up on his elbow to share a long tongue-filled kiss with Fred as our alpha guided the hard head of his cock to my omegahole. His pulse throbbed against me as Fred teased us both rubbing him in circles over my hole.

A whimper crawled out of my throat and Elio growled. His eyes shifted to that of his dragon and Fred let out a throaty laugh.

“Not in the mood to be teased, huh?”

“I am not,” Elio shook his head. “He is not either. Days, Fred! We waited days!”

“It’s hot when you’re all worked up. You know how it gets to me. I love you but it’s hot.”

Elio growled again and a ring of smoke wafted out of his nose. Fred waved it away and let go of his dick.

“Go ahead, sweetheart,” Fred said, laying back down behind me.

Elio cupped my chin and kissed me hard as he sank his dick into my slick omegahole. A purr vibrated out of my throat as some distant memory tugged at me. We’d done something like this before. Right? At some point. I knew them both. I’d finally come home to them. I rested my forehead against Elio’s shoulder and breathed in his scent as his hips rocked his hard dick into me again and again. My nails dug into his side as Fred rubbed himself on me too, reaching around to stroke my dick as he did so.

I lost track of who was inside me as my mates took turns taking me over and over. At some point, one of them pulled me up onto all fours, changing up the position. Heat washed over my thoughts mingling with the pleasure their thrusting cocks sent rippling through me. Fred and Elio whispered behind me. Was I taking too long to cum? Had the heat fried some vital part of my brain. I sank onto my belly and rolled to my back to ask what the hold up was.

“The claiming vows,” Fred said before the words ever left my tongue. “I was just telling Elio he should go first because I think ours has a chance of being past-life intense for you and I don’t know if that’s going to ruin the mood.”

“The planet could burn down and not ruin the mood,” I shrugged.

They exchanged a glance and I knew I was missing something.

“Does it matter who goes first?” I asked. “I mean, it’s not like I only get one or the other, right?”

“Of course, it’s not like that,” Elio said, stretching out beside me. “It would never be like that. I wanted to give Fred the chance to go first because technically….” His words trailed off for a second. “He’s waited longer.”

“Okay, I’m still really hard and slick. The heat has fried bits of my brain – I’m pretty sure. I know I can’t bite you both at the same time but you both could bite me at the same time. That part doesn’t have to be argued about. I like being between you two,” I said, wiping the sweat from my brow. “Then I’ll just --- I don’t know. I’ll work it out. It’s not like I’m going to turn into a woman when I bite Fred. Sure, I might remember some of her stuff, but I’ve looked her up online too. I don’t want to rush anyone, but this feels like the stupidest thing to argue over right now. I’m hard. I’m slick. Y’all are so close to cumming too. I don’t want to argue. I don’t want y’all to argue. So, someone better get back to fucking me and start biting me or I’m going to start fucking and biting you guys.”

Grinning, Elio rolled onto his stomach and pushed himself up onto all fours. Fred flashed me a wicked grin. What had I gotten myself into?

Our alpha nodded at me, and I pushed myself upright. Heat hadn’t totally rotted out my brain yet. I licked my lips at the sight of the curve of Elio’s ass and hips. He sank his arms and shoulders down onto the bed. Everything inside me throbbed for him. This dragon was going to be my undoing if our alpha didn’t beat him to it. I ran my hands over his ass cheeks, kneading my fingers into his flesh. He was slick too and his body was warm with need. Behind me, Fred put his hands on my hips and caressed them down to my thighs as if he had to warm my muscles up for what was about to go down.

“You good, sweetheart?” he asked and I almost answered until Elio nodded hard and fast and he tapped me on the ass as if this had all been his idea anyway. Maybe it had. Maybe he and Elio were being sneaky while they could before I was on the mating link too.

“I’m good too,” I said, rubbing the head of my dick against Elio’s slick omegahole like Fred had with his and Elio’s dicks earlier.

“You’re a good boy,” Fred growled in my ear.

He didn’t lead me into Elio or set the pace, but his hands stayed on my hips as I worked myself into his tight, damp body. I found heaven inside him as our bodies worked together, stoking the fires inside us. Fred slid his hand up and down my back and nudged my legs far enough apart for himself to slide between them. I leaned forward, sinking deeper into Elio, as Fred’s thick cock opened me up again. Elio reached back and grabbed my hand, pulling it down and holding it to his chest as if he had to touch me everywhere he could reach. I had no complaints about it. Anything. Everything for them. For us. Even as Fred worked himself into me, crashing my train of thought, he let me keep the pace where I wanted it. I thrust between them sliding further onto Fred every time I slid back before thrusting into Elio again. I was between them again. Right where I wanted to be.

“Bite him, mate,” Fred whispered as if he told me the dirtiest, sneakiest secret he ever whispered.

He was right. I was all leaned over Elio’s body, one hand trapped to his chest and the other wrapped around him to keep him close to me. One of his shoulders bore Fred’s bite but the other was naked and waiting for me. I licked his salty flesh searching out his squishy claiming gland. It was easy to discover. It was there, protruding from his flesh and full of the clear magical liquid that fueled the claiming vows. The claiming vows were old magic meant to keep us sane. Well, the latter part was maybe only a side effect. The claiming vows bound us together the way we chose to be bound together in between lives back in the Other World. It held what the magic considered our most important memories that would allow us to know each other well enough in this lifetime to keep us from feeling like we lost our minds because we were so in love and enmeshed now.

I let out a long, slow breath and licked over Elio’s claiming gland again. He rocked his hips faster under me as if the licking hit him in all the right spots. Maybe it did. I hoped it did. I wanted him and Fred just as undone as they made me feel. I placed a long kiss on his gland before borrowing my dragon’s canine. My hands trembled as I opened my mouth. Inside me, my dragon trembled too as I bit down and the clear magical good stuff flooded into my mouth. I sucked on his gland, not allowing a single drop to escape. He tasted like scorched vanilla candies – the perfect combo of sugar and char. His life exploded into my head. His brother and friends. Uncle Hush ruling the world like a distant parent who couldn’t be bothered with it half the time. Hunting for Fred. Learning magic. Nearly getting burnt to a crisp by Fred. Maybe that’s why he tasted so sweet and burnt. Maybe that was just his dragon. I saw Starscale 1 from his point of view. He flew high above the towns and cities and the wildlands where no one owned anything except themselves and what the wild dragons said. I saw Fred laughing and holding Minter and felt the quivering fear of the day Elio had a c-section. I held him tighter as if I could keep the memories away from him by drinking them down and holding onto him.

I didn’t have time to gather my thoughts before Fred’s hungry mouth moved over my own claiming gland. Both of my mates were getting their way – halvesies anyway. I bit Elio first, but Fred was the first to bite me. His long draconic canine broke the tautly pulled flesh of my claiming gland wide open. He wasn’t as tidy about it as I was, and the clear stuff ran in rivers and streams over my skin. I wondered what the magic showed him, but I didn’t have any skeletons in my closet. At least, not ones that I could remember anyway. I rocked my hips as much as I could, still sinking into Elio and moving over Fred as he drank my magic down.

The half open mating link made my head spin. I couldn’t hear Fred at all, but Elio’s thoughts came in loud and clear. Only he couldn’t hear me when I answered. I shook my head as if I could shake away the confusion but only time and magic would clear that away.

“Someone tell me what to do?!” I whined, the heat creeping back into my brain. “Thrust or bite?”

They were both quiet and for one insane second I feared that they didn’t hear me at all. Then Fred was outside my body again and pulled me back. He turned me to face him and shoved my head in the crook of his neck on the side that was naked of any claiming bites. Elio followed his lead, sliding into my body and laying his claiming bite. Had they planned over the mating link? I hadn’t heard anything on Elio’s side of things.

“I gotcha,” Fred said, wrapping his arm around me. “I gotcha both.” His words were laced with need but more so with a comforting tone that rained down over me. I licked at his swollen claiming gland and Elio slipped back into my body as his mouth found mine. I wrapped one arm around Fred and moaned against his gland. A second later, my dragon forced his canine back out of my mouth again and I bit him. Fred tasted like a freshly poured shot of liquor into a fruity drink. I almost laughed from the giddy feeling flooding into my brain. Somewhere in the background club music pulsed through my blood and if I weren’t held tight between the two I might’ve danced myself out of the bed. This was the past. This was the before but this was also so fucking much my right fucking now. The music throbbed inside me, pulsing through my atoms. We danced. This had to be Glitter Bomb. Fred grinded on me and I rubbed my ass all over him working him into a frenzy despite the crush of the bodies on the dance floor. He’d dick me down like I deserved in payback when we made our way upstairs tonight. I shook my head. Fred and Elio had been ‘dicking me down’ most of the evening. More memories came. There were our ‘egg brats.’ There were the doctors and my friends. That damn band that was everywhere on the Earthside internet. The Grim Howlies or whatever they were. My parents. My babies. My Freddie. My music. My late night dinners at Mama Dragon’s. My concerts. My friends. They all swirled inside my head as if I’d bitten my past life self rather than Fred.

Then the memories shifted and I saw more of him – as a club owner, a conqueror and whipper-into-shaper of Green Bay before it was The GGB territory. Him staring down the trigger side of a gun to keep his people safe. He was my Freddie. How hadn’t I known that from the moment I saw our kid in the woods? How had I ever forgotten him or Elio? Sure, Elio was new but were living brains so much dumber than souls that they could forget so many important people so easily? Was death so powerful. Tears welled up in my eyes. I didn’t want to die. I didn’t want death to have the last word.

“Never,” Fred shook his head, picking up my thoughts bright and clear now over our mating link. The flight link was sometimes patchy for me, but the word was clear as crystal. “I can’t promise that none of us will ever die but I do promise I will find you again. You and Elio. Whether I’m dead or alive or somewhere in between. Death doesn’t get the last word on that. Where we are concerned there will never be a last word uttered because I will always find you again.”

I met his gaze, blinking away my tears. Elio, still inside me, kissed my cheek and nodded his agreement. Freddie was right. Of course, he was right. We were back together now, weren’t we? And probably not for the first time. Elio was with us too now.

“Do you need to take a break?” Fred asked us both.

“No,” I shook my head. “I really need this. I feel like I’m on fire, Freddie.”

“We got you,” Elio said and thrust forward into me.

A moan bubbled over my lips and this time I didn’t even have the brain cells to rub together to bite my lip. I let it tumble out of me as I clung to Freddie for dear life. He rocked his hips until our bodies aligned and the thick head of his dick rubbed against my shaft. Once he found his place, he kept it, rubbing us together over and over matching the pace of Elio moving inside me. I lost myself to them. Everything else had to wait. So many loose ends from my past life floated in the back of my mind but they’d wait too. I was here – back with my Freddie and Elio. Back where I always wanted to be.

Elio’s dick twitched inside me and his pleasure rained down on me over our mating link. Everything felt so fucking good that my brain pulsed with it. I leaned my forehead against Freddie’s shoulder to ride out the sensations hitting me in every direction over our mating link.

His pleasure spiraled over my dick and mingled with mine and Freddie’s as the latter continued to rub us together. So close. So fucking close. My nails dug into Freddie as I finally came making a mess of us. Both of my guys weren’t far behind me. Fred threw his head back in victory and a little stream of fire escaped his lips when he roared his pleasure. Elio was quieter but his pleasure vibrated through me as his warm, sticky seed spilled into my body.

We fell onto the bed in a tangle of arms and limbs. We were a mess but we were a happy mess.
