Are you okay?I asked down our bond. Maevemet my eye, and I couldn’t tell if her discomfort was coming from the sexual tension filling the car, or the changes happening within her.

She rested her hand on my other thigh.I’m coming to terms with this...shift. Within me and between us.

I swallowed thickly and glanced down at her hand, at the small scattering of scars along her knuckles. In the short time we’d spent in the back of the SUV, we hadn’t done anything but hold one another. Not like we’d really had the privacy to do anything else, considering the fighting and the whole poison cloud. Guilt ate at me knowing there was so much we hadn’t been able to discuss.

But the ache within me intensified. My magic thrummed beneath my skin and yearned to take our fourth mate completely.

You need to expel the magic building within you,Maeve continued, trailing her hand down to cup my knee.Elias is right. You will feel better once you’ve done that. And you shouldn’t feel awkward on our behalf.

But you don’t seem okay,I replied, gently placing my hand over hers.I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable with any of this.

Maeve offered me a half-smile before leaning in and pressing a kiss to my lips. Nothing extreme, just a soft kiss that fought to prove that everything was alright. When she pulled back, I sighed and closed my eyes.

Goddess save me, I thought, prying my eyes open again to look out the window. The sky had since cleared after the epic storm I’d conjured, and now as the sun peeked through the clouds, I took that as my sign that maybe we’d be okay after this.

“Alright. I’m horny, is that what you guys want to hear?”

Elias chuckled. “Are you finally giving me permission to take the ache away?”

I gave him a sharp look. “Permission granted.Sir.”

His eyes darkened with a fiery heat that sent a shiver down my spine. Before I could blink, I was being shifted onto his lap, with his cock pressed against my aching core. Elias claimed my mouth with a searing kiss, sweeping his tongue against my bottom lip, gaining entrance to my mouth without much fight from me. I tangled my hands in his hair, feeling the soft strands of honey-streaked brown hair between my fingers.

Elias cupped my ass with his large hands and guided me into a gentle rocking motion against his crotch. I groaned against his mouth as the pressure built up, but the ache wasn’t going to go away with some simple grinding.

My magic flared, and cold air bit at my suddenly very naked flesh. I tore away from Elias’s mouth and stared down at my bare chest, stomach, and thighs. “Where the hell did my clothes go?”

“You,” Elias said, voice filled with so much heat and love it made my heart stutter. “You willed them away with magic.”

I swallowed thickly. “So, Adrian didn’t do that?”

My mage chuckled from the front seat. “Not me, Sweetheart. That was all you.”

“But, I—”

“You picked it up naturally from Adrian, which we knew would happen,” Maeve said. I glanced over at her and noticed a hunger filling her eyes. She met my stare, fangs poking down from her bottom lip.

“That’s definitely something,” I muttered.

Elias nipped at my breast and sucked my nipple into his mouth. I arched into him as he swirled his tongue around the nub. Wetness gathered between my thighs where I so badly needed him to be.

“Do you want me to fuck you in your tight little cunt, Ivy?” he growled, dropping my tit from his mouth. “Want to be dripping with my cum?”

I nodded, moaning as he took my other nipple into his mouth.

Use your words, Angel, he whispered into my mind, massaging the globes of my ass.

“I want you to fuck me,” I breathed, throwing my head back as he bit down on my nipple. “I-I need to be filled with your cum.”

“Take my cock out of my pants,” Elias instructed.

I did as I was told, trailing my hands down his chest to the waistline of his pants. The gear he wore was tight, but as I fumbled around with the belt, I found the zipper and brought it down. Biting down on my bottom lip, I reached in and cupped his hard length.

“You don’t wear boxers under your gear?” I asked, peeking up at him through my lashes.

Elias grunted, and his cock twitched in my palm. “I have to be prepared for anything, and that includes servicing you whenever you need it, Angel.”

My cheeks warmed as I pulled him out of his pants and wrapped my fingers around his girth. Elias guided me up so I wetted his cock, rubbing me against the length. A groan fell past my lips as he rubbed himself against my throbbing clit, elicitinga spark of pleasure. My breath hitched, the pressure building until it burned like an inferno within me.
