She’s right. We need a refresh. I go first, followed by the other queens waiting in the second-floor hallway. While Delphine takes her turn, I take Alena’s hand. She’s with Wrenand Ruby as I tell her, “I’m so sorry I barged in on your initiation. I shouldn’t have violated your privacy like that.”
“No apology needed.” A proud smile lifts Alena’s lips. “You’re one of us, and besides…I don’t feel shame about my body anymore. I like showing it off.”
Wren twirls a dark curl. “Like we’re proud of our differences.”
Ruby nods. “And our disability.”
Delphine flings the bathroom door open, smirking. “And our desire.”
“And if Vale were here”—Alena laughs—“she’d say, ‘And how we’re proudly DTF.’”
“Wow.” I marvel. “Where were you all when I was in college? It sucked feeling like I was alone. I had one friend who never judged sex, but the rest?”
Wren shrugs. “It’s the patriarchy. It turns women against each other, fighting like dogs for scraps off the man’s table, when if we would just work together, we could flip their fucking table over and be free.”
Delphine claps, and I hug Wren, impressed by how she’s the youngest yet wisest. “So you all don’t mind?” I angle back, needing to be sure. “I mean, if your kings, uh?—”
“Fuck you on their table?” Wren beams. “You have our blessing because each king has his boundaries.”
“By all means.” Alena drapes her arm over my shoulder. “Let Loch show you what a pleasure Dom is.”
Ruby bounces her brows. “Let Axel show you what a primal Dom is.”
“Ouais, you will like Grant,” Delphine boasts. “He is a giant service top.”
“While Sire likes to breed,” Wren chirps, “only me and men I approve of, but with a queen and a condom, he’ll do it too.”
Ruby’s violet eyes sparkle. “But what I want to know is how Nick will use Zar to become your second king tonight. Good god.” She grabs my hand excitedly. “You know, for women, Zar is a trained service sub.”
“Oh, Iknow.” My cheeks heat. “I’ve taken pictures of the parties he and Nick have had with your sister and Luca.” In this circle, their lifestyle is safe. “It’s actually beautiful, how much those four love each other. I’ve known Nick and Zar for years. It’s why I asked them for this.”
Ruby squeezes my hand, gushing about her sister. “And Scarlett would want you to have it. She doesn’t ask about the Bratva stuff, but she knows. She knows how we’re all in this together.”
In an instant, it whips through us, realizing that in a week, we have the big meeting with The Queen. The one where we confront the Bratva Pakhan. The evil father who needs to let them go.
It’s why I wanted this so quickly with Jace.
I want to be by his side. I want to be his proud queen as we all stand together, united against Ruslan Kholodov.
Wren claps. “Then what are we waiting for?”
Alena leads the way back upstairs. “Let’s get our kink on.”
Warmth soothes me, musing how each queen is different, yet we’re alike in our loyalty to each other and our love for our kings.
Kings who grin at our entrance, with Sire proclaiming, “Lord, we thought we lost you, ladies.”
Wren wags a finger. “You can’t rush perfection.”
They return to their kings, nestling into their laps while I note Jace, whispering with Nick and Zar by the credenza.
Plopping down onto the platform, I lean back on my elbows, completely nude and relaxed, waiting for this next part. It’s sweet how Jace seems like the one who worries now, always wanting my enthusiastic consent.
So I give it, spreading my legs, feeling free like Wren said. Flipping over the table. Flipping my middle finger to shame. “Oh, boys,” I call out, “your queen is ready to be fucked now.”
The other queens clap as Jace pauses, turning his head, a sexy smirk lifting his lips. “You sure, Smokeshow?” He starts stalking my way across the throne room, his erection swelling. I will never get enough of the sight. “Because we’re not boys.” His hand laces through my hair, tugging so I’m staring up at him, lust shooting through my veins. “We’re your kings about to fuck you.Together.Is that what you want?”
I bat my lashes. “I’m all yours to please, Daddy.”
