“Please add another finger,” Kieran moaned.
Whatever she wanted, I would give. Sliding another finger inside of her, I curled the tips of them up while focusing on her clit with my mouth, sucking and teasing the bundle of nerves. My gaze traced over the curves of her body from this angle, and I watched with rapt fixation as her fingers began to tease her nipples. I loved the way she surrendered herself to the moment. My hand found my excruciatingly hard cock, feeling my own ecstasy building to its peak.
When my teeth teased her clit, she cried out my name. “Bash! I’m going to come?—”
Her voice cracked, her body trembled, and I felt her explode around my fingers and against my mouth. I groaned her name into her pussy, not embarrassed at all that I came simultaneously with her. When her cries settled to soft moans, and eventually to a breathy sigh, I pulled back from her pussy and removed my fingers.
Her lips parted slightly as she stared down at me in surprise. I kissed her hip on the way up before coming to straighten to my full height in front of her. Boxing her in against the shower wall, I studied her euphoric expression and promised myself I would do all that I could to put that look on her face—often.
“That was amazing,” she whispered, her hand pressed against my chest before her gaze darted down to my cock. “I want to make you feel the same way.”
“Darling, I unraveled already from the taste of you alone,” I admitted, pressing my forehead against hers as she slid her hands over my shoulders. “Besides…this was about you. I wanted to learn about your body. I want to continue to do that, so that I know it better than anything else in this world.”
“I’ll never say no to that,” she teased before pressing her lips against mine in a gentle touch. I savored the kiss before stepping back.
Motioning for her to turn, I grabbed some body wash and ran it over her skin, making sure to wash every part of her. Every part of me needed to ensure that she was cared for in the same way that she made me feel earlier.
I could tell how tired she was, her gaze slightly dazed as I rinsed both of us. I helped her out of the shower before wrapping her in a towel. Sitting her on my bed, I grabbed her an oversized shirt before getting dressed myself.
As much as I wanted to convince her to fall asleep in here, I also knew I had to play fair after making such a ruckus out of the sleeping arrangements…which meant she had to return to her room. If she happened to be wearing my clothes and thinking about me, even while one of the others was in her bed tonight, then that was just a happy coincidence.
Obviously, I wasn’t doing it on purpose. Not even in the slightest. A smirk curved one side of my mouth up.
“Come on,” I said, urging her through my door once she was dressed. I walked her up the stairs, her hand clasped tightly in my own. “Let’s get you to bed, my sleepy Darling. Hopefully Gabe will live up to the cuddle standard I’ve set,” I mused playfully before adding, “or else.”
I tugged her in close for one last kiss, swallowing her chuckle in the process. I may not have her in my bed tonight, but I knew I had found my home in Kieran.

KIERAN
“Decidedto hang out with us today instead of training?” I asked Ronan curiously, gently knocking my shoulder into his muscular arm playfully.
Noah stood at the top of the stairs to his cabin, a curious tilt to his head as Bastian made his way past, already slipping off his shoes at the door. Clearly, he was energized and set on getting back to work. I understood his determination completely, feeling enthused and better rested myself.
I’d woken up this morning a bit later than I would have expected, which was something I blamed on Bastian and Gabe. Between the orgasm and tight cuddles I’d received, who could blame me for the deep sleep I’d been lulled into? This morning, when I managed to finally lift my heavy eyelids, I found myself buried against Gabe’s chest, practically laying on top of him. I could have been embarrassed, because I absolutely had some drool on my face, but instead, I’d just felt refreshed and ready to tackle the day.
“Yes, actually.” Ronan’s lips tilted into a small smile as he slid his large hand over my waist, resting it on my lower back while leading me forward. Gabe, Steele, and even Niz had just retreated back down the path for training—leaving Noah withBastian, me, and apparently Ronan. I was surprised by his choice to stay with us, especially with Niz going to train with Gabe and Steele, but I’d never complain about spending more time together.
“Why?” I asked out of curiosity, stepping through the doorway as Noah made his way to the office, leaving us to chat. I began to slip off my shoes, waiting for the Beast Tamer’s answer as he followed me into the room.
“I want to see your powers in action,” he admitted with a shrug. “I need a break from physical training, and I wanted to see if I could help you in any way.”
That was actually really sweet, but I wondered if it had anything to do with taking some space from the others. While he and Niz seemed to be mending any rift remaining between them, I had to imagine that it wouldn’t be smooth sailing the entire time. There were likely some lingering emotions still being worked through.
“I hate to tell you this, but you won’t be able to see much.” I sighed, eyebrows rising before adding, “I mean, unless you can read my mind, which is where all my current energy is being tunneled into.”
Something that would be horribly embarrassing, considering my thoughts were constantly revolving between my new affinity and all the men who drew me to them like a moth to flame.
Ronan stepped in close to me and tilted my chin up, eyes lighting up with a mix of soft affection and amusement. “First, I would give more than you realize to be inside of your head, even for a few moments. Secondly, even if I can’t see much of your power, I will be able to see enough to know if you’re overdoing it.”
Ah.I let out a sigh.
It was starting to make a bit more sense why Ronan chose to stay with us today. Yesterday, I did my best to play off mytrip to the medical center after training, but all of them, Ronan especially, had fixated on that piece of information, questioning me until I admitted that my meditative state caused multiple burns to appear across my body.
The Beast Tamer was totally here to spy and try to make sure it didn’t happen again.
“Hey.” I slid my hand against his chest, resting it over his heart. “I promise you, even with the trip to the medical center yesterday, I feel great. It’s a small price to pay to be able to tap into the powers that I have no choice but to learn to wield.”
