One hand on my hip dipped between us and cool air blew from his fingertips, pounding against me until I screamed around Luke, my entire body quaking as my release charged through me.
“Swallow for me, beautiful,” Luke begged with a stroke of his thumb against my cheek. It was the only warning I had before his length thickened inside of my mouth. and his release filled my mouth and throat at the same time as Blake’s.
Filled completely to the brim at both ends, I could only focus on breathing and swallowing, the last of my shudders rolling through me.
When they were done, they lowered me gently to the ground. They brushed my hair from my face, hands stroking over my thighs as they murmured their praises. How well I did. How beautiful I looked during and after.
They could have made me feel like a whore in that moment, having taken two men at once out in the open, but I didn’t feel like a whore. They didn’t make me feel like a whore.
I was a queen.
Chapter 10
“Come back with us,” Luke implored again once we had put our clothing back on. Together, we stood by the little pond, watching the ducks paddle back and forth across its surface.
I held his hand, giving it a small squeeze. “I can’t.”
“Why?”
I turned to Blake, the furrow of his brow the most emotion he showed on his face, even after we’d been intimate. My hand reached out, grasping his hand in my free one. “There are still things I need to do.”
“Like training?” Luke glanced around the clearing. “You can do that with us. We can help you.”
“No.”
“Eva, it doesn’t have to be this way.” Luke pulled my hand to his chest, cupping it with his own. “Why be out here all alone when you could be home with us with people who love you?”
My face threatened to break open into a large smile at his declaration. Just like with Zane, my heart swelled with emotion. Then I remembered how that conversation had ended with Adam almost getting attacked by the queen, and my smile died.
“You never told me why you were out here.” I shifted the subject away from what I really wanted to say.
Rebecca could wake up at any moment and, while I enjoyed my time with them, immensely, I needed them to move along so I could get back to my training.
Izzy took that moment to bust out of the woods, yipping and growling happily as she padded up to Blake’s side.
Blake bent to pet her on the head. She licked his palm and gave another growling yip, blinking her eyes adoringly up at her master.
“We told you about our trials?” Luke released my hand from his chest but not completely, seeming reluctant to let me go all together.
I supposed that was the nature of our relationship. Him not wanting to let me go and me unable to stay.
“Did you pass them?” I let myself enjoy these last few moments I had with them. I didn’t know when I would have a moment alone with them again.
Luke scrubbed a hand through his hair and chuckled. “In a manner of speaking. We passed, but only barely. We—”
“Looked like idiots,” Blake interjected, his eyes down turned.
“I’m sure it wasn’t all that bad.” I let my lips curl up in a small smile. “You should have seen me trying to create... well, anything really.”
“We did, and I couldn’t imagine you could look like an idiot doing anything.” Luke peered down at me with such adoration that my breath caught in my chest.
I wanted to stay with them, I truly did. If I could be sure the queen wouldn’t rear her ugly head, I would have. While she didn’t do anything now with the twins, that didn’t mean that she might not later. She was mercurial in nature. Who knew what would set her off next?
“She can’t stay. She won’t.”
My head jerked toward Blake. His single goldeneye leveled on me and understanding in his gaze.
“She doesn’t trust—”
