“I was looking for you.” I lean back and he kisses me. Properly this time.

Kole’s jaw twitches. “I went looking for Zephyra,” he says. “But her lair.. it’s moved. It’s not where it was when I was last here.”

I slot my hand into his and intertwine our fingers. “You shouldn’t have gone alone.” I search his eyes. I’m looking for flickers of darkness. A sign that he might have given in and found something to take the edge off his hunger.

“I didn’t,” he says as if he knows exactly what I’m thinking.

“I’m sorry, I…”

He shakes his head. “I thought about it.” He tweaks his finger under my chin. “I’m still thinking about it.” He kisses me again. “But there’s something that would take my mind off it.”

A grin twitches on my lips. I reach past him and turn the key in the lock, and we tumble inside, kissing furiously as he lifts me into his arms and I wrap my legs around his waist.

We’re on the bed, and he’s tugging my boots off, throwing them to the floor, when my phone rings. Kole huffs loudly, glances at it, then says, “It’s Luther.”

“We should answer.” I sit up, cheeks flushed, thighs aching for him to nestle between them.

“You answer,” Kole thrusts the phone at me. “I’m busy.”

Before I can protest, he’s pushing my legs apart and kissing his way down my body. His tongue is teasing the inside of my thighs; his hands are skimming up and down my sides, eliciting a moan of pleasure from me with each pass.

I answer the phone and Luther’s voice carries through from the other side. “Nova? Any news? Did you speak to Thornfield?”

Kole glances up at me, eyebrows raised in question. I reply to Luther, with a shaky voice, “Ah, y-yes, we spoke to him.” I bite my lower lip and accidentally release a sharp sigh.

Luther pauses for a moment then says, “Nova?”

“Ah ha…”

I start to respond but Kole is already shaking his head no, and he brings his mouth back to my thigh and continues his exploration of my body.

“What’s going on?”

“I…”

“I mean, right now, what’s happening?”

Kole’s tongue sweeps over my clit, and a wave of pleasure overcomes me. I can’t speak.

“Put me on video call…” Luther growls. “Now.”

I scramble to switch to video call. I’m blushing, embarrassed for Luther to see us. Even though we’ve participated in group activities plenty of times, this feels different somehow.

But Kole’s hands are now pulling me into him, and all I can do is moan in pleasure as Luther watches us from the other side of the world.

On screen, Luther takes a deep breath and says in a firm voice, “Kole, get the bag I sent with Nova.”

Kole pauses for a moment before rising to his feet to retrieve the bag from the corner of the room. He unzips it, revealing an array of sex toys inside: vibrators; dildos; clamps; feathers; lubricants.

“Put the phone somewhere I can see you. Then sit her on your cock and use the vibrator on her clit.” Luther orders through clenched teeth.

My breath hitches in anticipation as Kole follows Luther’s instructions. He takes the phone from me and rests it on the dresser opposite the bed. Then, sitting up against the pillows, he guides me on top of him, so I’m facing the phone.

He slides himself into me slowly, filling me up completely until I’m gasping for air. When we’re both ready, he turns the vibrator on and presses it against my clit.

“Nova, take hold of it so Kole can play with your nipples.”

I stare at the phone as I bring the vibrator to rest between my legs.
