“Same,” Titan said.
“Let’s start here.” Beatrix cupped his cheeks and put her lips to his.
If he was in wolf form, his tail would be wagging.
Chapter 3
Arthur
After waiting so long to find his flock, Arthur enjoyed sitting back and watching the two of them kiss. He was going to join them, but for a moment he wanted to simply fill his gaze with their beauty.
Beatrix with her soft, small body was such a contrast to the massive Titan. The funny part was that their dispositions were as opposite to each other as their body shapes. It was clear that Beatrix had a forceful personality. Everyone around her would know where they stood with her. From the way she burst into the bar, he knew she was fearless. Only a human with a strong will could’ve made it past the wards on that building.
She was the type to be unstoppable when on a mission.
Then there was Titan. The giant wolf shifter was nothing but sweetness and light. Arthur marveled at the man’s almost innocent-looking aura. They were the colors of a child: trusting and loving. What hurt Arthur was the slight color of deep pain under all the bright happiness.
He was determined to protect his tender-hearted wolf and tiny, delicate human.
Titan moaned and the shimmer of lust infused his aura, sending a wave of desire through Arthur. He was already sensitive to Titan, which meant it would be incredibly intense when they shared souls.
He couldn’t wait.
The hard part would be revealing their world to Beatrix, but that could wait. Right now, they would touch and learn each other’s bodies.
Beatrix’s legs were stretched across his lap and although his sense of smell wasn’t nearly as good as a shifter’s, he could still scent her growing passion. He ran his hands up her thighs, annoyed by the pants that were denying him access to her skin.
He hooked a finger in her waistband and tugged. “Off?”
She and Titan stopped kissing, and she looked at him, clearly dazed. “Huh?”
“I think you’re wearing too many clothes,” Arthur said, tugging on her pants again.
After a few blinks, a slow smile pulled up the corners of her mouth.
“I agree,” she said. “I think we’re all wearing too many clothes!”
Digging down between herself and Titan, she found the hem of his shirt and roughly pulled it up. She didn’t get it over his sternum, but Titan was quick to realize what she was doing and helped. Arthur heard something rip but then Titan was deliciously naked from the waist up.
Both he and Beatrix hissed out their breaths at the sight of the wolf shifter’s gorgeous and muscled chest.
“Oh, you’re beautiful,” Beatrix murmured, placing a hand on his shoulder and running it down over his left pec. The muscles under her hand bounced a little, as if reacting to her touch.
“Really?” Titan said, sounding incredibly insecure. How could he be uncertain about his superb body?
“You are a singular beauty,” Arthur said, grabbing the doubting wolf by the back of the head and pulling him close for a kiss.
As their lips met, Titan opened to him. Arthur could taste a hint of Beatrix on Titan. It made heat flare though him and caused his aura to pulse. Titan gasped, and he felt Beatrix jerk a little. She didn’t know it, but she was already sensitive to his magic.
Continuing to kiss Titan, Arthur felt Beatrix’s hands on his shirt. The moment she finished unbuttoning it, he felt her hands flatten on his chest.
“Damn, both of you are hot as hell,” she said, one of her hands disappearing and the other exploring his skin, running over his pecs and down his sternum in a slow, lazy circle.
Titan moaned again, and he was sure it was because Beatrix’s other hand was touching the shifter’s chest.
“I’m the luckiest woman,” she murmured. “You’re both so pretty. I want to touch both of you all over.”
It was only the need to have all of them naked so flesh could touch flesh that gave Arthur the strength to end the kiss with Titan. The shifter whimpered a little when Arthur pulled away.
