"You killed the guy who gave me this," I reminded him, pushing wet hair out of my face and relaxing under the warmth of the water.
"It wasn't enough," he hissed, his forked tongue flicking out and inked hands balled into fists. Water sluiced his dark red hair to his cheeks, somehow emphasising the danger he posed.2
"You dismembered his limbs, sliced his face off, and shoved the skin down his throat," Harvey pointed out, kissing higher on my thigh, each brush slower, longer.
"It still wasn'tenough,"Kai argued, but he wrapped a wet lock of my hair around his finger and some of the rage softened to affection in his eyes.
"What?" I asked when he just gazed at me, intent in a different way, gentler, almost subdued.
"I could have lost you in those caves," he replied, fingers stroking along my jaw to cup my cheek. "You almost drowned, Haley."
"I'm okay," I assured him, my attention torn between Kai's turmoil and Harvey's kisses climbing higher, brushing the inner seam of my thigh and making me throb.
Kai clenched his jaw, his reply grating but every bit as gentle. "Your voice is burned by the water, you're not breathing right, you're favouring your left side, and there's an ache in your ankle where thatthinggrabbed you. You're pretty fucking far from okay, my rose."
I turned, holding his stare and hoping he didn't see how deeply Adhiti's death scarred me. "I'm also stubborn, and strong, and I've been in a worse state than this. I'm okay, Kai. Promise."
He pressed his mouth into a line, but sighed, relenting. "No more caves," he ordered.
"None," I agreed—and inhaled sharply when Harvey licked a slow line up my centre, swirling around my clit.
"It's nothing a few orgasms won't fix," Harvey murmured, tilting his head to look up at me. Mercury eyes gleamed with a wickedness that didn't quite hide his worry. I sank the fingers of my free hand into his wild hair, slicking it back from his face so I could trace the sharp lines of his features with worried eyes. Weariness was carved into every part of him.
"Harvey," I murmured.
He glanced away and laid a kiss on my inner thigh before burying his tongue in my pussy, effectively silencing our conversation. We were all stressed, all traumatised, and all missing Wane. Harvey especially. He lacked his other half, his twin, but he wasn't ready to talk about that. I knew if I pushed him now, he'd explode, or maybe even break. I couldn't risk that.
And he was probably right; orgasms would fix everything.
Kai ducked his head to kiss my shoulder, his lips burning my skin with a long brush, like he didn't want to pull away. We might have been dragged through metaphorical Hell3but we made it out. Wesurvived.
"We'll be okay," I promised them both, my voice low and soft, almost drowned out by the slam of the water into the shower cubicle. I couldn't help but notice we all fit into the shower with room to spare, another annoyingly perfect part of Wynvail's perfect fucking house.
"We're cursed to murder each other," Kai muttered against my shoulder, lips dragging towards my wings. "There's nothing okay about it."
"Shut it," Harvey huffed, glaring up at Kai. "I'm trying to make our mate come, and you're being maudlin."
Kai gave him the middle finger and trailed his kisses lower, finding the sensitive spot on the arch of my wing. I stiffened with a gasp, pure electricity shooting through me. I tightened my fingers in Harvey's hair reflexively and he groaned, encouraging me as he licked and sucked me with a deadly, sinuous rhythm.
Liquid heat poured through my veins.
My hips bucked when Kai grazed my weak spot with his teeth. I exhaled a soft moan, reaching for his cock, gliding my fingers over him.
"Can we just—do this?" I asked, shyness making my voice faint.4
"Do whatever you want to me," Kai breathed, probably because I squeezed the head of his cock like I knew he loved. I squeezed harder, coaxing a throaty moan from him.
"Haley, my rose, move your hand," he groaned when I kept squeezing."Please."
"Like this?" I asked, and stroked my thumb over his slit with enough pressure to make his hips jolt against my side. I bit my lip, fighting back my own needy sounds when Harvey slid two fingers inside of me so slowly that he must have felt every throb of my inner muscles. His mouth never left my pussy, licking with attention that bordered obsession.
"Or like this?" I said to Kai, stroking up and down his length and tightening my grip when he throbbed in my hand. Kai's whole body shuddered, his breath hot on my wing when he laid another kiss there.
"Vicious rose," he panted, power shuddering around him. "Faster."
I was happy to oblige, my gaze rapt on his face so I could watch him fall apart. Gods, I loved Kai like this—vulnerable and open and trusting, his pale face flushed and his eyes dilated as he chased his pleasure.
"I love you," he said urgently, catching my mouth in a fierce kiss that made my lips tingle.
