“No fucking way,” Layla says, breathless. “I thought I was losing my mind. Anytime Thorne seemed to be turned on, I was too. Our orgasms when fooling around have been nothing short of intense... but now it all makes sense.”
“Shared pleasure,” I say in awe.
“It appears so,” Vara says, walking to where Layla and I stand at the kitchen island. “I felt it every time you and Thorne were together without me.”
She places her palm on my chest and smooths it over my pec, then down my stomach, her claws getting dangerously close to my cock. Her touch burns my skin despite the fabric of my shirt between us.
“If we truly are mates,” Vara continues, “then we will be able to hear each other’s thoughts. That’s how I knew you wanted Layla to bite you.”
I glance at Layla, and her fangs are bared.
“You thought the words ‘bite me’ and while they were quiet and weak in my head, it was very clearly your voice. I believe after we complete the bond, the shared thoughts will become more frequent, stronger. However, like other fated mate couples, we’ll learn to control what we want to hear and what we send out.”
“Complete the bond…” Layla says the words dreamily, and I can’t help but picture all three of us tangled together in the throes of hot fingers-and-tails-and-my cock knotted in a cunt-sex.
The women both whimper, me unintentionally sending a shot of lust their way.
“Yes,” Vara says breathlessly. “But here’s the problem.”
My body tenses, waiting for her to give us the bad news. Because if it sounds too good, it must be. There will always be a ‘but.’
“I have no idea how a bond between three mates is completed or what will happen after.”
Chapter 10 – Vara
“You’re not sure how to complete the bond?” Thorne asks, shifting on his feet.
“In theory I do. Certainly, it can’t be too different from how vampires and gargoyles complete their bonds.” I wave my hand at Layla then Thorne.
Layla perks up, seeming to catch on. “You think we should fuck and bite each other during simultaneous orgasms until the bond clicks into place so to speak?”
Thorne’s already dark purple face deepens with a blush. He smiles too. It’s strange to see the emotion on the broody gargoyle. He’s all hard lines and massive muscles yet the thought of being together with me and Layla transforms that intimidating exterior to a beautifully welcoming presence.
I bet he’s really good at hugs.
I startle at the thought. I’ve never been one to give, or want, hugs. Touching in general is reserved for sexual pleasures. But to be hugged by either of these two… to be cuddled up in bed after multiple mind-blowing orgasms warms my entire body with something I’ve never felt: contentment.
I shrug. “We could, but the part I’m unsure of is how long the bonding stage will be afterwards. It could be anywhere from a few days or weeks to months.”
Thorne’s smile slowly fades.
“Right. While I would love nothing more than to have my cock and tail buried deep inside the both of you, and lose ourselves to the bond, Layla is the new vampire queen. She’s booked for the next several months with meetings and appearances.”
Layla scrunches her nose. “Unfortunately, he’s right. I’m supposed to start making friends with human activists and political figures. I’ll be attending charity events and community outreach programs. Anything to get my face on the local news to become well known to the humans. Same with Vara.”
We stand in silence as we let our situation sink in.
“If I am Layla’s mate,” Thorne begins, “then I need to step down from my position, something I should havedone the moment I suspected it. There are already rules in place for such things.”
“Therearerules,” I say. “But I think you were chosen for this role for a reason, and if you are her mate, that means you will protect her at all costs. Anyone else could leave her vulnerable.”
“Not if one of Xander’s other soldiers takes my place.”
“Thorne,” I sigh. “Now isn’t the time to follow rules. Loosen up for fuck’s sake. We don’t even know how the three-way bond works entirely. You shouldn’t worry until it locks into place. Also, we probably shouldn’t tell anyone of this. Multiple mates at the same time is unheard of. Supes are jealous creatures. They could attempt to break us apart, or worse, use us against Layla in her new position.”
Thorne grimaces. “I already mentioned my... um... feelings for the both of you to Xander.”
“And I talked to Millie too.”
