So that’s exactly what I did.
Lew dragged my captured hand lower, raking my nails across his stomach. The scent of his blood made my fangs throb and my nostrils flare like a ravenous wolf finally scenting its prey. His gryphon screeched in the bond, pouring red-gold flames through my mind as his blood flowed into me. Tawny lion fur and gold-tipped wings rushed through me. Vicious talons ripping his kill into raw, bloody chunks. A furious protector, the magnificent, haughty guardian of House Isador. His blood carried alpha power, with something else even Rik couldn’t give me. No one else could, actually. Unless I found more of Esetta’s surviving Blood.
Through Lew, I could taste a hint of my mother. I could almost feel her hovering nearby, a ghostly visage I couldn’t see with my physical eyes. Blowing sands swept through my mind, and I could almost hear her laughter. Just by feeding on her former alpha.
His blood dripped down my ass, smearing on my skin. The best lubrication for vampires.
He dragged his dick through the blood, making sure he was well coated before he nudged against my tight hole. Rik paused, and I felt the heavy thump of his dick inside me, an eager beast with a mind of its own. Then the pressure building as Lew pushed into me, his dick gliding deeper. Rubbing the thin flesh separating him from Rik. Heat flared through me, liquifying my bones, lighting up every nerve ending to a fevered pitch.
My thighs quaked, the muscles of my stomach quivering, and they weren’t even moving inside me yet.
Lew pulled back slightly so he could push my wrist back up higher between us. My shoulder ached, but when he thrust deeper, grinding against me, all I could think about was my nails deep in his stomach. Every thrust impaled himself on my brutal straw-like nails, driving them deeper into him, even as he pushed deeper into me.
He groaned, a deep, guttural sound of pleasure that pushed me over the edge. I writhed and twitched between them, my veins on fire as every muscle clenched in release.
Panting, I blinked rapidly until I could finally focus on Rik. His thumb tipped my chin up so I could see his face, though his fingers were still firm on my throat. Not choking me but giving me the sensation of being controlled and held in place. They were both still rock hard inside me, which made fine tremors shudder from my head to my toes.
He gave me a lazy, slow grin. “The benefit of fucking alphas is our control.”
Lew grunted heavily, grinding himself against my ass. My nails gouging deeper. “Even when you’re feeding on us.”
I was only feeding on one of them. Opening my mouth wide, I allowed my fangs to descend but I didn’t move my head. I wanted to see what Rik would do. If he’d hold me back to try and make this last. Because once I sank my fangs into him…
Tightening his grip on my throat, he hauled me to him, bringing my mouth over his heart. He jammed my fangs into his chest himself.
His back arched, his body heaving on a deep bellow of release. His blood hit my tongue, a thick molten river of pure energy. The strength of granite and basalt, weathered but eternal, towering mountains and deep roots of precious minerals in the earth. Tumbling boulders, burying me in an avalanche but not crushing me. Because he cradled me in his arms and shielded me from all harm.
My rock.
While the gryphon dug in his talons and shrieked.

“I’m surprised to see you so early this morning,” Gina said with a smile as she sat down beside me.
Bleary eyed but upright, I set my cup of coffee aside as Daire brought me a plate of stacked pancakes. My stomach growled embarrassingly loudly, making my smile more of a grimace. I’d worked my way through all the Blood, some multiple times, and there was no end in sight to my hunger. Even with Rik refusing to allow anyone to feed on me. “Me too.”
I picked up my fork and cut a bite but hesitated when I realized there were chunks in the batter that weren’t fruit. I stabbed a chunk and lifted it up. “Is there sausage in the pancakes?”
“Yep.” Daire dropped down to the floor beside my chair and curled around my knees. “It’s my creation. Slathered with extra butter and maple syrup too.”
I wasn’t usually a fan of sweet things mixed with savory meat, but what the hell. I was too hungry to be picky today, and the extra protein might help stave off another bloody orgy.
:Not if we’re lucky,: Daire purred.
I rolled my eyes but cut another bite of pancake. “What did you find out?”
“There wasn’t much to go on, honestly. They were trying to keep it very quiet. If you hadn’t asked me to look into Houston, we’d never have realized that Skolos is having an impromptu gathering near the Gulf of Mexico.”
My eyes widened. “How many queens?”
“At least a Triune quorum. We know Houses Kijin and Gorgos are present because they have property in the area and the staff was activated. I suspect that House Ketea is also present, though Undina doesn’t have property of record in Houston or Galveston. Marissa is checking a wider area to see if we can find other Ketea properties she might be using for the visit.”
My nape prickled uncomfortably. At least two Triune-level queens were a few hundred miles away from me. Perhaps all three. “Shouldn’t they have notified us? We were careful to let Mayte know when we were going to Venezuela, even before she was my sibling.”
“It would have been polite, but not expressly required, unless you’re claiming that Texas is part of your territory.” Gina gave me a calculating look, her lips pursed. “Does all of the United States belong to House Isador?”
