There were too many questions and the only way to quiet them—prevent them from drowning her was by silencing her mind. Nothing was allowed to surface and if it tried to, she buried it.
It helped keep other thoughts about Roxy, Delphine, and Kaita, and the danger they were in, at bay. The horde…all of it was shoved down so she could breathe a little longer.
Once Sozav arrived she could work with him on a way to save the innocents and then she had to find a way to wipe the enemy out without sacrificing everyone.
“Adelina?” the deep voice wasn’t Varan’s, but Kaiden’s.
She looked up with tears of relief in her eyes. “Are you all right?” she asked, reaching out for him. Adelina didn’t want to be alone anymore.
Kaiden nodded and stripped. Then he climbed into her bed, wings spread for balance. Her fingers trailed down the hard ridge of his right wing and then back up to caress the deadly talon at the apex. Kaiden shuddered as she moved on to the left one.
Then his hands were on her face and he was kissing her.
His lips were soft and full, but Adelina could taste his desperate need. She could taste his desire that laced through him, body tense and cock already rock hard against her. Without a word she kicked off the blankets, exposing her naked body.
Kaiden’s growl set her on fire and she could not get him inside her fast enough.
Nothing about this was gentle or beautiful. It wasn’t making love like they had in the past. This was a passionate, rough joining of bodies to remind each other that they were still there – alive and well.
That they had each other for a little while longer.
Kaiden thrust all the way into her, so hard she cried out – the pleasure sharp. It was almost painful, but not quite. Not enough to tell him to stop, even if she’d wanted to. No, Adelina needed him to take her hard.
Her nails dug into his ass, urging him on while she lifted her hips to meet his thrusts. Adelina groaned into his mouth as his tongue danced with hers.
She’d been hoping they would make it back before Asher, the Draga Royal Army, and its fleet arrived.
They needed to steal as much time together as they could. Adelina wanted to memorize these moments for when she needed them most, when she needed to be reminded what they were fighting for.
So she kept her eyes open and imprinted the vision of Kaiden above her, wings spread wide like a blanket. His blue eyes blazed like shining stars in her dark room, light spilling in from the living space. The warm brown of his skin was gilded by that light and Adelina arched up against his chest to memorize how his skin felt against hers.
Adelina came right before he did, skin flushed, head thrown back, and nails gripping him hard. Kaiden roared as she clenched around him, forcing him to orgasm. The hot seed filled her and instantly Adelina felt content as his body warmed hers.
“I love you,” she murmured against his lips, caressing the muscles in his back. “So much,moya lubov.”
Her Drakesthai mate rested his forehead against hers, making sure to keep most of his weight off of her. “I love you more than the number of stars in the sky.”
She smiled at that and held him close.
Then the bed dipped and Adelina looked up to see Varan…and Nash.
Her eyebrows rose in surprise.
“I’m not ready yet for many things,” Nash said, his voice hoarse. “But I need you more right now than I care about these two watching me.”
Kaiden rolled off of her and instantly Adelina felt chilled.
Nash pulled her close and Varan…Varan went to Kaiden.
“My love, would you mind?” Varan asked, trailing a finger down Kaiden’s wing, a mirror to what she’d done only moments before.
Adelina ran her hand down Nash’s chest, and then lower. Lower until her hand wrapped around that hard length of him as she eyed Kaiden, gauging his desire and willingness. Her eyes caught on the way he seemed to lean into Varan’s touch even though he hadn’t once moved, waiting for her response.
“If Kaiden wishes it,” she said breathily, desire rising yet again as she watched Varan kiss the Drakesthai prince’s neck. “Then I do not mind at all.”
Before either could do anything, Adelina reached out and gripped the back of Kaiden’s neck, yanking him down hard to press a vicious kiss to his lips. “But don’t forget. You aremine.”
Kaiden and Varan groaned at the dominance in her tone – the blatant possessiveness.
