“We were poisoned,” Poe snarled.
“All three of you?” I asked. “When? Who poisoned you?”
“So many questions,” Grim drawled. “Let’s just enjoy our time together. The past doesn’t matter.”
“I want to know.” I raised my chin in defiance.
“It was a long time ago, Bailey,” Saint grumbled.
Poe licked his lips. “Keep being a good girl and maybe I’ll tell you what happened.” The way his gaze traveled over the length of my body was enough to make me shiver.
“I need to use the bathroom.”
Poe nodded. “Don’t linger in there too long though, or I’ll have to drag you out.”
I shuddered and reminded myself that they were predators. No matter how gorgeous or sexy, or how skilled they were with their tongues, they were apex predators. And I had bargained with them. Traded my body for their souls. The night was far from over.
I shut the door behind me and thought better about locking it. That wouldn’t keep them out anyway. It would only piss them off. I couldn’t lie that the hint of danger, and their impulsive tempers sent a little shiver up my spine. A tingling shiver that stirred up a fresh sheen of moisture between my legs. What was wrong with me? Had I been alone so long that any attention was turning me on. Even from vile delicious spirits who refuse to leave until I let them defile my body?
I was as fucked in the head as they were.
After splashing some water on my face, I rested my trembling hand on the doorknob. I wanted more but I was still a bit terrified. What if I couldn’t handle any more?
As I turned the knob and opened the door, I gasped, almost walking right into Grim. He stood, blocking the doorway, naked and waiting for me.
He held a leather collar in his hands. “Come here, little fox.”
I shook my head. “What is that?”
“A gift,” he drawled.
I backed up into the bathroom, ashamed and horrified that the sight of it in his hands made me wet again.
Grim stalked forward, his eyes ablaze with renewed hunger. “I like hunting you, little fox. These games you play are so fucking hot. Pretending you don’t want the same things. You make me so hard.”
He backed me up until there was nowhere to go. The cold wall hit my back, and I froze. “What is that for?”
Grim smirked and held the collar up closer so I could see its intricacies. There were three metal loops attached to it.
Oh, fuck.
Just as the realization hit me, Saint appeared in the doorway, a chain wrapped around his wrists. Fuck.
Poe entered the bathroom last. He took the chain from Saint and nodded to Grim.
Grim exhaled, shuddering in anticipation as he opened my robe and slid it off my shoulders. He dragged the collar across my chest, using it to caress me, tracing circles around my swollen nipples with it. “I’m really going to enjoy seeing you like this,” he rasped.
I stiffened. I’d be giving up more control. But wasn’t that what I’d already done? From the moment I said yes, I gave them permission to own me. To do whatever the fuck they wanted to me. And that thought sent another burst of heat through my body.
I swallowed hard and lifted my chin, holding eye contact with Grim.
He chuckled as he wrapped the collar around my neck, fastening it at my nape. “Good girl.”
It was tight but not choking me. Just tight enough to remind me who was in charge. Poe inched forward and tugged on my collar, causing me to stumble into him. He fingered the ring at the base of the collar, caressing it like it was a part of me. I guess now it was.
I drew in a sharp breath as he hooked one end of the chain into my collar. His eyes lit up with lust and desire. As he stepped back so all three of them could admire me, the other end wrapped tightly in his fist, I became dizzy. An animalistic need inside my belly bloomed. They were beasts, and I was at their mercy.
Saint took the chain from Poe and tugged me forward to his chest. “Beautiful,” he growled. “Ours.”
