lesson they wouldn't forget.
"I s it weird that I'm naked and underground?" Sin asked, his voice echoing as we scrambled up through the tunnel from the maintenance level and tried to move as fast as we could up the steep incline in the dark. "I've been naked in pretty much every place that you can think of, but never underground like this. It feels naughty, like I'm a grave robber and you're a pair of dirty zombies come to gobble me up."
"Well I'm not naked," I reminded him. "So Ethan will have to do the gobbling."
"I'm good with that so long as you're watching, wild girl," Sin purred and I bit my lip on a laugh, not minding that idea one bit.
"Keep dreaming," Ethan growled. "You'll be the one sucking my cock in that situation. I'm top dog in this little three way we have going."
"Oh, I like the sound of that," Sin said. "I can suck your dick while you eat our girl's pussy and she sucks my dick. It'll be some kind of circle situation...or a triangle I guess...maybe if she's sitting on your face and I'm-"
"What was that?" I hissed, interrupting him as a tremor ran through the tunnel surrounding us and the three of us fell still.
"I didn't hear anything aside from this asshole prattling on, love," Ethan said after a moment, taking my hand in the dark. "What do you think you heard?"
"It was more like I felt it," I whispered, straining my ears as I laid my free hand on the tunnel wall and tried to see if I could feel it again.
I reached into the wall with my earth magic, seeking out any signs that the tunnel might be collapsing or anything like that, but the structure seemed sound.
A distant scream caught my ear as the three of us stood there listening and I sucked in a sharp breath.
"Who was that?" I hissed.
"Probably just someone in the riots," Ethan muttered. "Don't forget this idiot set the Belorian free."
"On that note, I'm gonna kick your ass when we get out of here, Sin," I growled and we started moving again.
We had to be close to the library and once we reached it, we just needed to hurry on up the other tunnel to meet the others, dig our way out of here, avoid the guards on patrol in the watch towers, hope that Dante really could take out a fence designed to be indestructible, run across a field which was likely filled with even more traps and pitfalls and meet up with my cousin to stardust the fuck out of here. Easy.
"I'm gonna hold you to that, wild girl," Sin said excitedly and I cursed him beneath my breath.
"Maybe I won't be sucking your dick in that triangle situation you're dreaming up either," I added as he clearly wasn't concerned about the ass kicking.
"Shit, anyone would think you didn't want the Belorian set loose!" he growled like I was the one being unreasonable here and a snarl of frustration left my lips.
"I didn't. I told you that clear as fucking day," I insisted. As we rounded a corner and the light from the library lit the tunnel ahead at last.
"Yeah, but you gave me the secret look again," he protested.
"There is no secret look, Sin," I hissed but we all fell silent as a deep and guttural roar sounded from somewhere up ahead.
I threw a silencing bubble around us as my heart lurched with fear and Ethan shifted past me, casting ice from his fingertips until he'd hung a wall of it before us, thin enough to see through. He filled the air around us with crystals of ice so that the temperature plummeted and a shiver chased along my skin.
We crept forward with Ethan moving the barrier of ice ahead of us and chills which had nothing to do with the temperature raced down my spine.
As we reached the hole in the wall where the entrance to the library opened up before us, Ethan bent down and grabbed his jumpsuit from the floor, tossing his boxers to Sin as he pulled it on. The Incubus rolled his eyes, clearly not caring about putting his dick away, but the thing was damn distracting, so I was in agreement with Ethan on that choice.
While they were putting their clothes on, I squatted down and crawled towards the opening where Ethan had placed the ice barrier and peered out into the brightly lit room.
I sucked in
