“Colin, you don’t need to tell him anything,” I said.
“He’s right, babe. You don’t have to say anything you don’t want,” Zander agreed.
Colin looked his gaze at me and Zander. “I need to. He needs to know. They need to know. Gael needs to understand why I left and stayed away.” He looked back at Stephen. “Daren had mentally and physically abused me for over twenty years. He had his friends ra-rape me and destroyed all my self-worth. If it weren’t for Basil giving me a lifeline, I would’ve killed myself. When he came ten years ago, it was like all that doubt and humiliation hit me like a freight train.” Colin shook his head, and his voice quivered. “I couldn’t tell you. I couldn’t tell anyone. I was ashamed. I couldn’t go near him, even… even when my beloved was near him.”
Tears streamed down Colin’s beautiful face. I came beside him and pulled him into my embrace. He wrapped his arms around me and silently sobbed in my chest. I held him close and looked around the room. Tears filled Stephen’s eyes, but more than that, I saw anger—no, rage.
Stephen pulled his phone from his pocket. After a few button presses, he held it to his ear. “Basil, get Lana and the enforcers, find Daren, and bring him to me. Yes, now.” Stephen hung up the phone and looked up. “Colin,” he said softly.
Colin lifted his head and released a breath before wiping his eyes. “Yes, sir,” he replied, his voice raw.
“You have nothing to be ashamed of. Iwillget you justice.” He fixed his stare on Colin and repeated. “I will get you justice. You have my word.” Power and strength blanketed the room and caused me to tremble.
I believed him.
Chapter Fifteen
Colin
Laughterechoedthroughtheroom as Zander attempted to tickle me. His fingers darted across my sides. Reggie joined in, and his chuckles mixed with ours. The atmosphere was light and full of warmth. The three of us lay tangled amidst the sheets, the weight of the earlier evening momentarily forgotten.
The evening had been emotionally draining and it was a lot to process. The memories, the pain, the revelations—all of it threatened to drown me. After my emotional breakdown, we finished speaking with our three leaders.
Zander explained how he went to break things off with Daren when he was attacked. Master Stephen was furious, but not with me. He couldn’t believe, after all this time, he had someone so vile in his coven.
"You alright?" Zander's voice, soft and full of concern, pulled me from my thoughts. His piercing eyes searched mine, looking for any sign of distress.
I met his gaze and then Reggie's, who looked equally worried. "Yes," I replied, forcing a small smile. "Really,mon chou, I'm okay."
Reggie snuggled against my side. “You better tell me if you’re not. It’s been a long night. I’m here if you need me.”
“As am I,” Zander said, hugging my other side.
I grinned. I loved having someone watching over me, caring for me. I wanted this forever and for always. My heart raced as I said, “I’ve been thinking.” Zander and Reggie peered up at me. “I’ve been thinking about our conversation from earlier… about bonding.”
Zander's face lit up, a knowing smile playing on his lips. Reggie shifted closer, his expression curious.
“I want us to bond. If you both still want to,” I said.
Zander looked at Reggie and tilted his head in question. Reggie grinned and nodded. The atmosphere in the room changed, becoming charged with anticipation and desire.
“We want that, too.” Zander slid up and kissed me. His lips tasted sweet, and I wrapped my arms around him, pressing into his kiss.
As Zander and I deepened our kiss, I felt a gentle touch along my side. Soft lips trailed tender kisses up my neck, causing goosebumps to rise on my skin. Reggie had joined us, enveloping me in warmth from the other side. The sensation of being loved and wanted by both of them at the same time was overwhelmingly beautiful.
Zander pulled back, breaking the kiss. “We need to get more comfortable.” He raised his hand and snapped his fingers. Bright light surrounded us, and I blinked. Reggie’s mouth hung open, and surprise showed in his expression. I’m sure mine mirrored his.
Gone were the crisp white walls of my room. In its place were stone walls and dim floating orbs or lights. I glanced down, and we were all naked atop a soft bed of furs. I looked back at Zander.
“Welcome to the Fae realm. I figured this was the perfect place to cement our bond.”
“Wow—” Reggie began but was cut off by Zander’s kiss.
They were beautiful together. Zander’s azure skin and Reggie’s pale skin contrasted in perfect harmony. My cock hardened at the sight. I could watch them forever.
Feeling the urge to join them, I moved closer, positioning myself behind Reggie. Gently, I pressed my lips to the nape of his neck, feeling him shiver at the contact. I trailed soft, lingering kisses down the curve of his spine, each one eliciting a soft sigh from him. As I reached the small of his back, my hands gently caressed his hips before continuing my path of kisses down to my prize.
Spreading his cheeks, I licked his tight hole. Reggie’s loud moan spurred me on, and I continued to eat his beautiful ass.
