Even if we were fighting, my body instantly responded to it. With Sam and Nate also there, feeling my emotions, the reaction was soon tripled. They wanted her just as badly as I did, and there was no way to hide it.
Even with her mind clouded by the chaos, Luna sensed us. She jerked underneath us, her face flushing and her eyes glowing. “What is this? What are you doing to me?”
“You know the answer to that, Luna,” Sam replied. “You know you belong to us.”
“We’re not supposed to die at your hands,” Nate told her. “If you want to consume us, that’s fine, but a one-time thing is boring, wouldn’t you say?”
She frowned, still looking confused. “I… I don’t understand. What’s happening?”
The feral crimson in her gaze was flickering. I pursued my advantage and pushed her further. “I think you do. You’re our fated mate.”
I half-expected her to protest, but she didn’t. Doubt and confusion still pulsed through her, but the memories were there, at the back of her mind, trying to claw their way out of Luna’s subconscious.
“Prove it,” she said.
I met her gaze, just like I had the day of her failed mating with my brother. “We’ve already proven it more than once. I know you can feel it. But we’ll do it again, if that’s what you want.”
“I do,” she said. “I want it.”
My mouth went dry at the way she was looking at me, at us. Because all of a sudden, this wasn’t about violence or death anymore. It was about our bond, a connection that was both carnal and emotional.
Courtesy of our shift, we were all naked. When Luna spread her legs for us, I crawled down and plunged my tongue into her pussy. She arched her back and cried out, our mental link lighting up with the intensity of her pleasure.
“That’s it,” Sam said. “Let go. Surrender to us. You don’t have to be afraid any longer.”
He bent over her and flicked his tongue over her rigid nipple. A jolt of ecstasy coursed through her as Sam sucked on the tender bud of flesh, and I groaned, my body aching with the need for release.
But Luna wasn’t ready for that yet, not until she fully understood what was going on. Nate obviously agreed with me, because he pressed his lips to hers in a kiss that was both gentle and devastating.
We didn’t give her the chance to struggle or succumb to the curse of her line. I sucked on her clit and toyed with her beautiful cunt, while the twins caressed every part of her they could reach. Together, we held our connection wide open, overwhelming her, showing her what she truly was.
Before long, she was moving against me, whimpering, desperately reaching for a climax that was just beyond her reach.“Please,”she begged.“Please fuck me.”
With Nate still kissing her and stealing her breath, she couldn’t speak out loud, but it didn’t matter. We heard her in our heads and felt her in our hearts. And even if everything else was all wrong, even if we ached with the knowledge of our failures and losses, we still had this. We could still hold her close and reassure her we’d always be there for her.
Nate broke their kiss and allowed me to pull her into my lap. Luna happily went along with it, positioning herself over my cock with no input from me. Her feverish gaze held a dose of despair, a myriad of questions that I could only answer like this, with my body. In one single, powerful thrust, I buried my cock inside her, once again claiming her as my own.
Her eyes widened and something inside her snapped. “Rowan… Sam… Nate…”
This time, she spoke out loud, and her voice sounded different, like a spell or a dream. I sensed her fear and grief, and I knew what was hiding behind the crimson, behind her desire to hurt us.
As much as we hated to think about it, the fact remained that our pup hadn’t survived Luna’s poisoning. She knew that too, and she didn’t want to acknowledge it, didn’t want to accept what had happened to our precious baby. But the world was a cruel place, and it wouldn’t allow us to forget, not even now, not even for an instant.
“I don’t want this,” she said, tears trailing down her cheeks. “I want our family to be safe.”
“That’s what I want too,” I replied.
It wasn’t fair, but life rarely was in the Chaos Valley. I couldn’t save our pup, or mend her broken heart, so I licked her tears away and hoped that time would heal the wounds I couldn’t touch.
Slowly, ever so slowly, she relaxed. Sam and Nate’s presence helped and together, we got the crimson in her mind to fade. It was hard to believe that our bond had been able to defeat the chaos, but then again, the chaos was meant to guide us to our mates. Maybe it made sense.
I began to move in and out of Luna, keeping a gentle pace, just enough to give her pleasure and remind her I was there. Soon, she was meeting me thrust for thrust, each motion fluid and perfect, our bodies still completely in sync with one another.
When Luna came, she cried out my name, her pussy tightening around my cock and making my vision blur around the edges. I surrendered to the pleasure, to the feeling of absolute togetherness only our bond could ever give me. It was beautiful, almost as beautiful as she was, and as we came together, I wanted this moment to never end.
Maybe someone was listening to me, because time seemed to dilate for us, stretching out into infinity. Even when I slid out of her, that first sensation of absolute perfection didn’t pass. Sam slid into her in my stead and Luna whimpered in his arms, just as lost in the sensation as we all were.
Nate grabbed my arm and leaned against me, and I couldn’t help myself. I leaned forward and kissed him. When we were together like this, the chaos no longer seemed so important. As I thrust my tongue into his mouth, I dared to hope that maybe, just maybe, we could have a future.
