69. Kiron
I was livid that Harlow took away her choice in starting the bond.
But I should have known better than to think my unhinged best friend would ever be capable of restraint when it came to our mate.
Rafe’s ability made having Sina feel like sex on steroids, the air itself thick with it.
So I didn't really blame him. I'm just glad she wasn’t pissed off at him.
“Kiron.” She’d stopped rocking her hips and was up on her knees, giving me a clear view of her pussy swallowing Harlow’s cock. I’d said I was going to fuck her at the same time. I’d fantasized about it. And now she was silently asking me to join her.
I growled and climbed onto the bed. “I hope you’re ready for me, little spitfire, because my dragon is so fucking jealous of Low right now you might end up with a matching bite on the opposite shoulder.”
“Kiron,” Nik growled from the other side of the room.
He’d stayed quiet this whole time, even when Harlow did the unthinkable, and the fact that he was calling me out instead of him made my temper spike.
“ What, Nik? ” I snapped, glancing at him. Elias was back on his knees between Nik’s thighs, already starting up another round with his mate.
But Nikolai wasn’t looking at me. He was watching Sina.
“Little mate. Check in.”
“Green, sir,” she said automatically this time.
He dipped his chin at her, satisfied, and only then turned his attention back to me. I clenched my jaw, my hands curling into the blankets. He wasn’t wrong to check in with her before I joined in.
I nodded in return.
I reached for her swollen clit, gathering her arousal, then pumped my cock with her juices. If I was being honest, I wanted to prepare myself the same way Rafe had. Watching him bite her and fuck her with blood-soaked fingers had pulled something raw and feral out of me .
I bit into my wrist and tilted it, letting my blood spill over my cock. Sina gasped as I stroked myself, inching closer. I lifted one of her legs and hooked it over my hip, lining myself up against her clit. I dragged the tip across it slowly, watching the lust bloom in her eyes.
“Relax back into Rafe, princess.”
She let out a shuddering breath as I notched myself at her swollen pussy, pressing in beside Harlow.
He groaned. “Fuck me, I might die from coming so many times and never going limp. Rafe’s like the vampire version of Viagra,” he complained.
I ignored him and focused on my mate. Her body went rigid.
“Breathe, Sina.” I grit my teeth, forcing myself to slow as I breached her. “You can do it. Take all of me, princess.”
Rafe kissed along her neck, smoothing her sweat-soaked hair from her face, murmuring praise into her ear while I watched in awe as she made room for me. I was going to come so fucking fast it scared me.
“ That’s it. Almost there.”
When I finally bottomed out, a roar tore out of my chest. My dragon surged, wings spreading, fire bellowing in approval. I was vibrating with the need to move.
“Fuck,” Sina cried. She started rocking her hips, searching for friction. All three of us growled and moved together, her breath hitching with every thrust.
Sina leaned forward, her breasts pressing against my chest. I braced myself, one foot on the bed to keep my weight off Harlow, my knee supporting her as she sagged in my arms. I kissed along her sweaty neck, tasting salt, and murmured into her ear.
“When I come, I’m going to fucking claim you as mine. Do you hear me, Sina? You’ve been mine since the moment I laid eyes on you back in my brother’s bar. And I’ve waited long enough to finally make you mine. ”
“Yes,” she moaned breathlessly. “Please. I’m yours.”
Rafe leaned in behind her. “What about me, honey? Don’t I get to make you mine too?”
Her body clenched hard around us, and all three of us growled.
“Yes, Rafe, claim me. I’m yours. Fuck— ohhh! ”
Her release hit, slick and overwhelming, and it was my undoing. I roared as I came, my fangs finding a place near Harlow’s bite as Rafe took the opposite shoulder. I sank into her soft skin, her essence flooding my mouth. I drank greedily until my dragon screamed for more.
My venom filled my mouth for the first time.
Sina cried out as Rafe and I sealed the bond.
She was mine. Unequivocally mine. And with her by my side, I would never lose control again.
Nikolai finally rose from his chair and crossed the room with the same quiet authority he carried in everything he did. The mattress dipped as he knelt onto the edge of the bed, the heat of his presence cutting through the haze of pleasure still hanging in the air.
He cupped Sina’s face in both hands, tilting her head back gently so she had to look at him.
“Mmm,” he murmured softly. “You took your mates so well, little mate.”
Her eyelids fluttered, her body still trembling between us, exhaustion beginning to creep in now that the frenzy had passed.
Nik’s thumbs brushed lightly beneath her chin, checking her carefully the way he always did.
“Let’s clean you up with a nice hot bath. I want to make sure I take care of that gorgeous body of yours and soothe all those bite marks you earned from your hive tonight.”
Sina gave a tired little huff of laughter, her cheek leaning into his palm .
“Okay. But what about your bite, Nik?” she whispered, glancing over at Elias sitting in the chair Nik had vacated. “And Elias?”
Nik followed her gaze, one brow lifting slightly.
“That will happen when the time is right, little mate,” he said calmly. His thumb brushed along her jaw again, grounding and reassuring. “Bonds like this aren’t rushed. Not when they matter.”
Elias shifted slightly in the chair, his gaze lifting just long enough to meet hers before dropping again, something raw and hopeful flickering through his expression.
Nik’s attention returned to Sina.
“For now,” he murmured, sliding an arm beneath her knees and another behind her back, lifting her easily into his arms, “your only job is to let me take care of you.”
Sina let out a soft sound of surprise before instinctively curling against his chest, her arms slipping loosely around his neck.
Nik stood and carried her toward the bathroom connected to the room, the door pushing open with his shoulder.
“Elias, my pet. Come help me get her cleaned up.”
Eli sucked in a sharp breath, quickly getting to his feet.
Harlow chuckled. “Go win back our girl, Elias.”
Then his gaze slid between Rafe and me.
“You guys have to admit… my meddling actually paid off.”
Rafe snorted while I just shook my head. Unhinged bastard. But for once… he wasn’t wrong.
