“First, Thea and I told you I could hear a voice in the veil the last time we were here. Second, I didn’t know who it was until I was captured. Third, asshole, if I knew who he was I certainly wouldn’t work for a fucking demon, rapist, and murderer.” My voice cracks and my men instantly surround me. It gives me a moment of safety and comfort to regain my composure.
“What is this?” one of the councilors asks. I peek out to see what he’s referring to, only to watch him gesture wildly at us.
“Luz is our girlfriend. Yes, for all three of us. We won’t change it because you don’t like it, and we won’t apologize for it. I suggest you adjust,” Mason says in an icy voice that has the jerk clamping his mouth shut like the coward he is.
“Fair enough,” the Head Councilor responds, giving the others a stern gaze. “This is not how we conduct council meetings.”
“Thank you, sir,” I say before picking back up the story. “Drekavac is using the souls to make himself stronger by taking their energy. I think his plan was to figure out a way to travel the other layers himself. He wanted me because he knows what I can do. He knows more about my abilities than I do, because I think he has a connection to the void. Otherwise how would he have gotten me out of there? He needs to be bound to his realm, all the demons do,” I say fiercely.
“How do we bind every demon? That’s ridiculous,” someone scoffs. I roll my eyes openly, completely done with their childish outbursts.
“We don’t have to. When Liam and I ended Drekavac, they all suffered. If we can get a permanent binding rune onhim, it would affect themall.” Sam speaks up before anyone else decides to be an asshole.
“If you ended him, why do we need this?” The question is valid, and spoken in curiosity, not hate. It’s a nice change from the others.
“They heal, even from death. Their realm also suppresses reaper abilities. It affects everything but reaping souls,” I reveal, giving the councilor who asked a small nod of respect.
“Then we research. I’ll put Councilor Brent on it. You should take a few days to mentally recover from such an affair. We know how to reach you if there is a need.” The Head Councilor gives me a gentle smile before ushering us out.
“Vacation time? That’s a first.” Liam’s voice radiates with excitement.
“How long are we able to be on the human side of the veil?” I ask and Liam looks over at me with ahopeful grin.
“It won’t affect us for a while, no worries,” Mason responds, giving Liam a nervous glance that has me giggling.
Now that my head is healing, I’m starting to feel so much better. Plus, a few days off with my guys? Count me in.
“How about a beach? I could handle Luz in a bikini,” Liam suggests, playfully running his eyes over my body.
I return the favor as heat floods my cheeks. The thought of the guys without shirts has me all hot and bothered. I’ve only had a chance to fuck Mason and I’m more than eager to explore the other two.
“Are you blushing, Luz? I didn’t take you for a blusher,” Mason jokes, giving me a playful smile.
“I’m taking Luz to her room to rest,” Sam announces, refusing to look at the other two.
“I think Sam just claimed Luz for the night,” Liam jokes, though I see a hint of jealousy in his eyes. Mason just chuckles and gives me a wink.
I step over to Mason and give him a passionate kiss before I turn to Liam who is now openly pouting. Needing him to know that I don’t favor one over the other, I push him gently against the wall and kiss him thoroughly, biting down on his lip slightly and pulling away. Liam groans at the loss of contact and I give him a sweet smile before putting my hand in Sam’s and walking away.
“I have to say, that was hot,” Sam says, his voice a bit husky. His admission has warmth pooling between my legs. In my head I picture myself being sandwiched between two of my men while the third watches. I let out a small moan before I catch myself.
“You’re picturing me watching you do dirty things, aren’t you?” he asks with a hooded gaze.
“Maybe,” I say in a flippant tone. He gives a low chuckle before backing me into the wall.
“Well that can be arranged, but for now I have you to myself, and I intend to enjoy every minute. First I want to fuck you fast, then I want to fuck you slow. Then, if you’re good, maybe I’ll fuck you in the shower. How does that sound?” he asks, giving me a smoldering look.
I nod, not trusting myself to speak. Knowing me, I’d say something awkward and ruin the moment.Fuck, this man is pure sex when he talks dirty.
“Good,” he rumbles and licks his lips. Then he picks me up and throws me over one shoulder with ease, practically running to my room. I reach down and smack his ass, then grab a handful. Might as well test the goods while I’m back here.
He groans and shoves open the door, barely kicking it closed before he places me gently on the bed.
“Are you sure about this? After what happened?”
“Please,” I say honestly. “I want you to claim me. Need it. He doesn’t get to take this away from us.” Not wanting to wait any longer or give him time to second guess, I quickly undress until I’m laying naked and on display for him. He looks down with heat in his eyes and then slowly pulls his shirt over his head. His hands run along his chiseled chest and then into the waistband of his jeans. He winks before he quickly shimmies out of them and drops them to the floor with a thud. My eyes rake over his tattooed and incredibly muscled chest and I practically start drooling. Sam has a strong and powerful appeal that is impossible to resist and I’m ready for him to claim me as his own.
Sam leans forward, placing his closed fists on either side of my legs. I grin, torquing my body and crawling to the middle of the bed, Sam following behind. Sitting back on my knees, my chest heaving, I shake my hair out. Sam hisses and he pulls me forward running his hands gently down my body. His thumbs brush against my already pebbled nipples and his hands wander further south until they are resting on my hips. I moan at the contact as he crushes his soft lips against mine, swallowing it down.
