Chapter Thirty-One
Phenex
The only thing keeping me from flying to Zamina Castle and strangling my brother with my bare hands was my mate in my arms. Her head lay gently against my chest, her body weighing no more than a feather in my arms. It was similar to that first night when she brought me to Earth through the ritual.
When I felt her power, her beautiful dark soul calling to mine, I knew then she was meant for me.
Even at her worst, she was defiant, sassy, and strong.
But not now. No, not this time. This was worse, her silence, her defeated face. That bastard fucked with her head, forced her to break her mate bonds, and somehow convinced her she wanted all of it. And that was not acceptable in the slightest.
We walked in silence to our rooms, the six of us. The night started with a celebration and ended with fury. Morax gave a pretty speech. Didn’t realize my stoic brother had it in him. And it worked, a little. The spirits of our people were lifted at his words, but not ours.
Until our girl was back to her fierce and confident self, we would remain her guardians.
It was collectively decided: Seraphina would never be without one of us.
We would be there for her, a constant reminder that despite everything that happened in that fucking place, those assholes would not break us.
And whatever horrors awaited us under that mountain, I’d face them all if it brought Seraphina back to us.
Seraphina stirred in my arms, and I held her close. “Need anything, my queen?”
“A scalding hot shower,” she grumbled. “And the painful deaths of all my enemies.”
Levi groaned. “Can this be a group shower? I think it would be a great bonding activity.”
Several chuckles followed Levi’s comment, and even Seraphina offered a sly little smile in my arms. Levi always knew how to make her smile, and I loved him for it.
“Phen, please,” Seraphina moaned my name as I pumped my cock inside her in slow, languid strokes. The others watched, having filled our girl and given her so much pleasure she was nearly spent.
We started in the shower, not quite big enough for all six of us, but at least three.
Andras and Dev joined her first. There was tension between Andras and our girl.
He was almost hesitant, giving Dev commands first to tease her perfect body until her skin was flushed with desire.
Only when she reached for him did he give in and fuck her so thoroughly against the shower wall.
Then Ty plucked her from the shower and tossed her onto the bed.
She flopped like a ragdoll, her perfect tits bouncing and making my very hard dick ache for attention.
I may have forced Dev on his knees and filled his mouth while I watched Ty ravage her.
He pinned her down, taunting her with his filthy words and praising her when she took Levi’s thick cock in her mouth.
I nearly came down Dev’s throat, which was quickly becoming a favorite pastime of mine. He liked it just as much, even if he was still coming to terms with that feeling.
But I held back, forced my dick to wait for the tight little cunt only my queen could provide.
“I need to come, Phen. Please,” she begged, and desire zapped through me like lightning.
Seraphina knew me so well. Knew how much I needed to hear her beg for me. To know she wanted me as much as the others, even when they stole her heart first.
I pressed my chest to hers, caging her against the wall of the bedroom. “Look at me.”
Seraphina opened her aqua eyes and gazed into mine. As much as I loved when she followed commands, the fire behind those eyes was dimmed. But I would get it back.
“What do you want from me?” she whispered, wrapping her arms around my neck and threading her fingers in my dark hair.
“Everything, Seraphina,” I growled. “I want your submission and your fire. I want all the pieces of your soul, even the ones you’re ashamed of.”
She tried to turn from me, but I snatched her chin in my hand and held her in place, thrusting inside her with more force. My queen groaned in pleasure, but her eyes remained guarded.
“It doesn’t have to be tonight, but I will bring you back to us,” I purred, fucking her deeply, feeling her body tighten around mine. “One way or another, my queen. My mate. Mine.”
I held her there, pinned to the wall and forced to face my words as I fucked her into oblivion. Her eyes rolled to the back of her head and her perfect pussy squeezed my dick when she came. Seraphina screamed my name like a prayer, a desperate, hopeful prayer, and only then did I let go too.
