“Mate smells…too good,” Ryker replied unevenly.
Persius said in a husky voice, “I heard that it takes months for mates to, uh, ‘calm down.’”
“Years if you’re talented,” Bael commented and turned to Nix. “Honestly, Nixie, I think we all need a good orgasm before we go through with your plan.”
Nix gaped, unable to think of what to say until a single word spilled from her mouth, “Seriously?”
“We are all alphas. We are now all alphas with a mate whom we adore and cherish. Our ‘hormones’ are at an all-time high.” Bael remarked, “I’m pretty sure Professor Brainiac is only capable of a few smart thoughts before he starts checking out your ass and getting distracted.”
Thierry blinked and coughed out his exhale as his gaze shot up from where it had lingered on Nix’s curved, plump rear. “Careful, incubus.”
“Careful around your hard-as-rock erection because there could be a landslide?”
“I need all of you prepared to grab Lemmuns when we walk in there.” Nix pointed a thumb behind her to the tall auditorium entrance doors. “Can’t you just…think unsexy thoughts?”
Bael replied, “Not when you’re standing in front of us, smelling like roasted marshmallows, and looking like you need a hard fuck so you love us again.”
“Hard,” Ryker grunted, big black pupils dilating.
Nix blew out a breath that played with the front strands of her fiery, reddish-orange hair. As the strands danced around her face, the men’s hot, intense gazes traced down her body, lingering in places they especially enjoyed.
“Focus,” she cursed at them.
“Give us a few minutes to jerk off,” Bael said. “And we can come back focused and ready for action. Students haven’t even been called to the auditorium for the mysterious ‘announcement’ yet anyway.”
Bael added, “Remember how the first time Ryker took you, he was overrun by his horny dragon? His eyes were fully black, and he could hardly grunt out a single word.”
Nix struggled to swallow as the memory of her threesome in the air with Bael and Ryker trickled through her brain. Ryker had literally fucked herthrougha tall glass window. “I remember.”
“That wasn’t a one-time only occurrence. When alphas become pent-up, our inner animal can overtake us. Why do you think there is an obscenely large bottle of coconut oil at our place?”
Nix opened her mouth and released soundless words.
“I see my words have stunned you.”
“I regret to say…the incubus is correct,” Thierry said. “Alpha brains run off of animalistic urges and hormones. Not slaking lust for a long enough period of time can cause…well, it would be better if we all took ‘a moment’ like he suggested.”
Bael leaned into Nix and said, “By ‘moment,’ he means ‘jack off his stone-cock.’”
Nix rolled her eyes but subtly squeezed her legs together when she caught a whiff of Bael’s alpha sex in the forest smell. Rain, pine trees, and sweaty, sexy pheromones.
Nix looked up to the gods. “How do alpha males run the world when they are so fucking…dumb?”
“Agreed,” Bael said. “Makes no sense.”
“Fine. Hurry up and, uh, satisfy yourselves.”
“It would be faster if you joined us,” Persius stated.
“Joinyou?”
“Looking at our mate, being around our mate, we will come much faster.”
Nix’s heartbeat skidded in her chest as she glanced at the bulging erections of her mates again. “I could just, uh, stand there?”
“Yes,” Ryker growled and rubbed a hand over his bulging crotch.
Nix felt lust stab into her gut and dance and twist in her lower abdomen at her dragon mate openly groping himself in the hallway due to being so pent-up.
