They all wanted kids.

Not necessarily one of their own—except for maybe Exos and Cyrus, who had royal duties involved—but the others just wanted to expand our circle with little fae. Even my two king mates wanted that, despite their obligations to their thrones.

This went beyond duty for all of them.

They just wanted to create life.

Which was an Elemental Fae’s greatest gift.

But I could also sense their willingness to wait, if that was what I desired. They didn’t want to push me. They also didn’t want to make me choose. Hence, the trials.

I couldn’t discern the details from their thoughts, their minds closing off around whatever they had planned.

However, anticipation hummed through my veins, ready for whatever they had in store.

“Okay,” I said slowly, looking at each of my mates. “Tell me about these trials.”

“OKAY, I’m going to need you to go back to the orgasm trial again.” There’d been other items mentioned, but that was the competition that had captured my interest.

Titus smirked. “It’s exactly what it sounds like, and we intended to start here tonight.” He gestured around the cabin my mates had sequestered me off to in Iceland, of all places.

After we’d paid for the food and drink bill at the Fae Pub—yes, that was the extremely original name—and Cyrus had said goodbye to his cousin, my mates had portalled me to the middle of the woods where a cabin waited with a very large bed inside.

I suspected they’d taken the beds from the guest rooms and just pushed them together in the center of the living area, because the sheets were a bit haphazard, and the size of the mattress definitely wasn’t common in the human world.

Regardless, it worked.

And I really wanted to start the orgasm trial… like, now.

“So you’re all just… going to see how many orgasms you can force out of me over the next five days.” I did not see a problem with this logic. At all.

“Six days,” Titus corrected. “We decided the first one doesn’t count because of the excitement. So we’ll warm you up properly for a day, then we each get a twenty-four-hour period.”

I swallowed. “Oh, okay,” I said. “Um. Yeah, we can start now.”

Exos grinned. “So eager.”

“We need you to agree to all the trials first, little queen,” Cyrus murmured. “And we also need to know you’re really okay with the outcome. Are you ready to have a baby with us?”

All five of them studied my reaction, my mates always putting my comfort above their own. Was I ready to have a baby? I wasn’t sure. Was anyone ever ready?

But I knew in my heart that my mates would be amazing fathers.

They would help me through this, protect me, and love me unconditionally. All facts I felt through our bond yet already knew.

Because they’d been there for me from the beginning, even before we were fully mated.

The six of us were made for this, and if my mates wanted a baby, then so did I. We were in this together, forever and always.

Besides, I rather liked the idea of making them all fathers.

They’d all make some sexy fae dads.

But that wasn’t the reason I really wanted to do this.

My reason was simply because it felt like it was time. I hadn’t really noticed it before, but I could sense it now. Our mate-circle was ready to create a new life.

“I’m scared,” I admitted. “Because I don’t really know what to expect. But I trust you guys. And if you all are ready, then so am I.”
