“Let’s enjoy breakfast in bed before you have to leave,” I said, grabbing my shirt from the floor.

“Nope, stay naked because I think we should have you for breakfast,” Lucien said, picking me and tossing me on the bed.

“Uh no! Mr. Potter is on the other side of the door,” I squealed.

“I’ll leave the food by the door!” he shouted.

I laughed. “You traumatized him the last time he walked in on us.”

“Serves him right, plus he should be used to it. He’s walked in on Zev plenty of times,” Aeon chuckled.

“He doesn’t—”

My sentence was cut off when Lucien licked up my pussy. His eyes flashed gold, but all I saw was hunger when his eyes turned back to his honey brown eyes.

“Mmmm… Breakfast in bed,” he murmured, against my pussy.

“Breakfast of champions,” I said, grinding against his face, feeling Aeon get on the bed. For a moment I worried this might be a bad idea. That quickly went out the window when they kissed. Lucien moved over letting Aeon take his turn and suck on my clit.

“I don’t knowwhere we went wrong, it should have worked,” I said frustrated, throwing my notebook on the coffee table, glancing at the entrance of the library.

“I’ve looked over it, and I don’t think we did anything wrong.” Aeon picked up my notebook looking over the spell.

We had spent the last few days combing over the spell, seeing where we had gone wrong. We wondered if there was a possibility to could salvage parts of the spell or if the whole thing was crap.

“Blood magic is unpredictable,” Aeon said, still looking over the spell.

“It could have been the wrong spell entirely,” Lucien said, sitting across from me. “We must also prepare you better for the spell next time. That was an exorbitant amount of magic that you didn’t know how to deal with.”

“I don’t know if it was in me, but it felt—” I said, thinking about the feeling it gave me. “It was like I was being torn apart. It flowed through me, but didn’t feel like it was building. It was like being in a river after the rain and it overwhelmed the dams. It was destructive, fast and the amount of magic was all-encompassing, but kept going through me.”

“The air did feel charged, it wasn’t just around you, it was all around us.” Aeon nodded his head.

“But when we touched her, I felt it flow through me too and it was coming from her,” Lucien said confused.

Aeon looked at me. “Maybe it’s not just our bonded magic anymore, it could be your own magic trying to surface.”

“But I can barely do small things and the fire I do have is unpredictable. Anything bigger than a flame is volatile.” I snapped my fingers to produce a flame, too afraid to do anything else.

“I’ve felt something even before we were bonded, I’m going to say your own magic might have played a part in the magic we felt.” Lucien said, sounding confident.

Aeon pursed his lips as Lucien ran his hands through his hair while they thought of what Lucien and I said. I looked over at the entrance and made a quick scan of the library.

“He’s not here,” Lucien said, making my gaze snap back to him. “I don’t think we will see him for a while.”

I thought I was being stealthy in my search for Zev. I internally rolled my eyes at myself, irked that I thought that it would go unnoticed.

“Is he mad?” I asked, hating the words coming out of my mouth. “Was he still in the room when we mated?

Our relationship was complicated on the best of days. I hated that I was worried about him, worried about what he was feeling and how we made him feel.

“Zev is always mad,” Aeon stated, but I could see the concern in his face. “But yes, he was in the room with us.”

“If it’s not one thing, it’s another,” Lucien added, also looking mildly concerned. “He’s always been a broody man. If it makes you feel better, he left the room afterwards looking like his normal broody self.”

“Should we worry that he will retaliate?” My mind had thought of a lot of scenarios, one being he was so mad he would start something with one of them or me.
