I give her a five minute head start to give her a fighting chance. Counting down the seconds in my head, when I hit zero, I release the others. The second they feel the pressure restraining them disappear, they don’t hesitate, giving chase.

I give it another thirty seconds; it’s no fun if the chase is over too soon. I’ll even make it more of a challenge and stay out of the shadow realm. Hunt her down the good old fashioned way.

I break into a sprint.

The leafy walls are at least twelve feet above my head, the setting sun sending eerie shadows dancing across my path. Every turn, every dead end, only serves to ratchet up my excitement.

By the fifth dead end, I realize I’m being stupid. The hard way is for suckers. When a prize like my mate is on the line? You stab, cheat, and kill if that’s what it takes to win her.

Scaling the hedge, I land in a crouch on top, using my shadows for balance to keep from losing my footing. From there, I’m able to walk across the top of the maze without any resistance and find my angel in no time. Impressively, she’s managed to evade all of us so far. Ledger’s nose may give him an advantage, but it’ll only get him so far. He can tell what direction Ever’s in, but not the path to get there.

I slide to a smooth stop when I find her, smirking as I slam a shadow wall in front of her and she squeaks in surprise. Pivoting on her heel, she doubles back, but I cut off her with another dark wall. Much to my utter glee, she doesn’t panic; she fights her way through the hedge wall and escapes.

Benevolently, I let her enjoy her victory for a little longer, sabotaging the others and barringtheirway instead. But a man can only take so much foreplay before he snaps.

Silently dropping behind her, I purr, “Found you.”

She startles, and I catch the elbow she throws with a dark chuckle, tugging her against me. “That’s my girl.”

“You cheated,” she accuses, chest heaving as she struggles to catch her breath.

“Oh, angel. Haven’t you realized yet? I’m not a good man. I’ll do whatever it takes to get to you because you’remine. You’ve always been mine.”

Hand around her throat, I keep her captive as I yank down her sexy little shorts and free myself. Running the tip of my cock through her slit, I wait until she’s so wet she’s squirming against me in silent need before I sink into her.

Fuuuuuuuck. She’s everything I didn’t know I was missing. All hot, and tight, and perfect. Strangling my cock like she plans to bring me to my knees with her slick cunt.

And she does. I drag her down with me to kneel on the ground, bucking up into her with a hand clamped tightly around her throat. My shadows flicker in the distance, losing my hold on the roadblocks to the others as I bury myself so deep, she’ll be able to feel me for days. I never completely pull out, every roll of my hips and hard thrust drawing a sound from her sweet lips that I itch to swallow.

Unable to reach her lips, I kiss the top of her head as I bottom out in her pussy, electricity shooting down my spine. “Such a perfect, sweet girl. Far too good for me, butfucking hell,” I groan, eyes screwing shut as I drop a hand to circle her clit and she squeezes me impossibly tighter. “Gonna keep you anyway. You can hate me later,” I pant.

“Never.” She grinds back against me and I nearly lose it. Only Bellamy and Myles careening around the corner has me staving off my release, instinct preparing me to fight whatever suicidal idiots might try to take my girl from me. I take a deep breath, exhaling slowly.

Not a threat to anything but my sanity.

“The fuck are you waiting for?” I snap my hips, reveling in Ever’s breathy moan.

They have their clothes stripped off in record time, but are wise enough not to rip her from my arms and hesitate to comeany closer, eyeing me warily. Like I might slit their throats for daring to touch my girl while she’s stretched out on my cock.

Assholes. I know how to share. I’m fuckinggreatat sharing. Better than either of them.

In fact…

I use a shadow to shove them both within her reach, then guide my sweet girl’s mouth to Bellamy’s cock. The air punches out of his lungs, but he recovers quickly, threading his tattooed fingers through her hair and gently thrusting into her mouth. “Oh fuck, beautiful. A little deeper.” His head is thrown back with a tortured groan. “You’re trying to embarrass me, aren’t you? Sucking my soul right out my cock.”

Before he can come, I tighten my grip around her throat and wrench her off his dick, sliding her lips down Myles’s. “Don’t want to make him jealous, do you?” I purr. “If I have to fight for your attention, so do they.”

We carry on like that until we’re all half-crazed. Every time one of them is about to come, I pull her off their cock and guide her onto the other. Both are cursing my name and praising the shit out of her, but then she swivels her hips and I don’t stand a chance.

“Oh fuck, angel, yes,just like that.”At the last second, I pull out and work the tip of my cock into her ass before I come harder than I have in my entire life.

No one can ever accuse me of not being a team player. We don’t have any lube out here, and something tells me our girl is going to need it.

Reluctantly releasing her throat, I shove Bellamy onto his ass. “What the fuck, dude-oh.Ohshit,” he stammers as I lift Ever by the waist and drop her down onto his cock.

“I think you've made the poor guy suffer enough, don’t you, angel? Claim him already. So you have one more reason to stay.”

Ledger arrives as she’s riding Bell in earnest, and my brother is one step ahead of me, seeing how out of control our shifter bondmate is. Without a moment’s hesitation, Myles barks, “Easy. Take her ass, but fingers first so you don't hurt her.”
