“Turn around, Vi.” The low commanding hum of his words has a feeling tightening low within me as I turn to face Nollix.
There’s a gleaming look in his eyes, and it’s all I can focus on as his hands reach between us.
He slowly unbuttons his jeans. It’s an odd look. One I didn’t notice the first time we had sex. He shoves the jeans down his lean hips, jostling me just slightly. Warm, steady hands meet my hips, and his gaze still searches mine in that curious way, leaving me intrigued by the look in his eyes.
He rocks his hips, his tip sliding along my sex as he studies every changing emotion in my features. There’s an intensity in his eyes, but the playful look he normally holds isn’t there. It’s almost as if he’s only thinking of us in this moment. My heart aches as I realize.
It’s a look of love in his gaze.
His temple rests against mine, his lashes lowering just slightly as I slowly sink down. A gasp slips from my lips as he fills me. My mouth parts against his, breathing him in but not closing the small space between us as I memorize the vulnerable look in his eyes.
Link’s palms skim against my stomach before pushing fully across my breasts, his smooth chest melding against my back. Nollix’s nails bite into my skin as he guides my hips up and then slowly back down. A moan shakes through me as my damp skin meets their chests with each rocking movement of our bodies. Nollix’s hips meet mine in a rhythm so perfect it makes my breath catch in my lungs. Slow and unhurried thrusts build the coiling feeling within me, and just when I think it can’t feel any better, Link slips his hand down low. His fingers press firmly against my clit, slick against my sex until I come hard against Nollix’s shaft.
A low groan hums through him as he clenches his jaw and slams me down against him. His pace quickens as he fucks me. He doesn’t pause for even as second as I tremble in his arms from the feel of it. A curse bites against his mouth as his fingertips dig into my skin just before he stills beneath me. The pulsing feel of his orgasm throbs through me.
Unsteady breaths wrack my lungs as a chill skims down my spine, and I realize Link’s no longer pressed against me. The fingertips of his left hand are just barely resting against my lower hip. Dread sinks into me, and I turn back to look at him. I’m so afraid it was too much. What if I was wrong? What if the three of us can’t do this? What if I’m only meant to be with one of them and I’ve ruined it with both of them?
My gaze meets his sated lavender eyes before trailing down the tense lines of his bicep and the corded muscles of his forearm only to find his fingers wrapped loosely around his dick. He watches me, his gaze trailing over every inch of my skin that’s pressed against Nollix, as he strokes slowly up and then down.
“Lie down, Vi.” His soft words play on repeat in my mind, and I realize I’ve waited for longer than I’ll ever admit for this moment. I’ve wanted Linkin since before I ever really knew I wanted him.
Right now, this … it’s better than I ever imagined.
Nollix steadies me as I lift myself, letting him slip from me before sitting at the edge near him. I shift to move up to the top of the bed to rest against the pillow, but Link grips my hand. He stops me there at the edge of the bed, and it confuses me until he steps closer between my thighs, his jeans brushing along my skin as he looks down on me with attention I’ve never felt before. He’s always looked like he’s cared about me, but right now it’s different.
More raw and less sweet. But completely perfect.
I watch his every move because this all feels new, especially between him and I. But mostly, I feel more inexperienced. Neither of them make me feel uneasy though. I don’t feel self-conscious. I feel … anxious. I don’t know what he’s about to do, but I want it.
I want him.
He leans over me, and I arch up to meet him just as his lips press to mine. The warmth of his tongue flicks against my lips before my mouth parts to slide my tongue along his. His palms push through my hair, and for several moments, he just kisses me, angling his head to deepen the kiss in a consuming and demanding way. Before he pulls abruptly back.
He holds my head in his hands, his lips slightly parted as his gaze skims over my features.
“I never thought you’d want me like this.” His whispered words sink into me, making emotions tangle all through me at the sound of his confession. “I always thought you’d be there, but there was never anusin my mind. I—I never thought you’d love me.” His jaw clenches as if he’s biting back his own rising emotions.
The sound of his voice makes me realize just how much he’s been alone in his life in the Wild Hunt. How much he’s been hurt. How much he probably fully believes he doesn’t deserve anything better. He accepted his place in life a long time ago, I think. He made the best of what he was given.
But I want to give him more.
I lean forward once more until my lips brush his.
“I love you.” I kiss him a little harder, and he breathes me in like I’m the air itself that gives him life.
Just as our tongues meet, his mouth leaves mine, making me gasp without the feel of him. His mouth skims against my jaw, his tongue flicking along my throat. Sucking lightly just below my ear as he pauses there.
“I love you too,” he whispers in the sweetest tone.
He’s so sweet. That’s all I can think about.
My lashes flutter as he lowers his head, his lips meeting my collar bone, the curve of my breast. His tongue rolls against my nipple and my back arches before he presses me down against the mattress with a firm palm against my shoulder. Strong hands grip my hips and he jerks me hard against the edge of the bed. He pulls away, his eyes shining into mine as he lines our hips up just right. Nollix leans over me and his mouth starts trailing gentle kisses against my neck just as Link slowly sinks into me.
My fingers fist into the blankets, needing something to hang on to as they both work my body into a new, rising feeling of need. Nollix’s palm pushes across my breast just as his mouth claims the other, kissing and flicking and biting against my sensitive skin.
Link’s fingers dig into my thighs as he sinks into me deeper, and deeper, and deeper. He holds me in place, thrusting firmly into me until my teeth grind together to stop the sound of my cries. Our bodies meet like I’ve never felt before, his length slides into me at an angle I’ve never put any thought into. But it’s perfect. It’s euphoric. It’s climactic.
My release slams through my body on wracking waves, making my words turn into shaking moans as they caress the walls and ceilings of this tiny room in this terrible shack in the middle of the Underworld.
His hard pace quickens. With another hard thrust he stills above me, his eyes clenching closed as a low groan hums against his lips. Heavy breaths make his pale chest rise and fall as he stares down at me. Slowly, he slips himself from me, lowering himself until his body covers mine. Warmth settles into me as they surround me. Nollix laces his fingers through mine and he lies on his side, studying me with quiet attention. Their once-firm touches turn gentle, holding me sweetly as we cling to one another in silence.
My heart rate slows, but that tingling feeling still strums through me. An exhausted smile pulls at my lips.
I’ve spent my entire life wishing I could have lived the life I was meant to live. It wasn’t until right now that I realize, Iamliving the life I was meant to live.
I’ve never felt more like I’m right where I’m supposed to be in my life than I do right now.
