because he was on a mission to give us something we hadn’t dreamed we could have. He would now stand back and let Daniel and I take all the pleasure, have all the connection.
“I love you,” I told him. “And yes. I’ve always been ready for this.”
Dev turned to Daniel. “Come and make love to our wife.”
Daniel smiled my way, his cock already lifted high against his belly. He was ready for me, ready to start something new. He crossed the space between us but didn’t crawl on the bed with me as I’d expected him to. Instead, he turned to Dev and one hand came up to cup his cheek. “And what about you, love?”
Dev gave him a half smile. “I’ll give over to Bris and abide in myself for a while. It will give you the best chance.”
“But the best chance is a one hundred percent shot, and you can do that while you’re still in control of the body,” Danny pointed out. “Dev, we all know this isn’t a chance. This is a decision we’ve made, and we will be pregnant after this is done.”
Dev’s smile became tight. “Of course. You know I would still be watching, but it might be more comfortable for me if I let Bris take control of the body. He’s better at holding off his more physical impulses than I am.”
Because Dev would want to join in, because his whole body would ache with longing like it probably did now.
“Why would you hold off?” Danny’s hands moved over Dev’s shoulders, smoothing across his skin.
A tendril of frustration wound across Dev’s expression. “Because I’m not completely in control, and I’m worried I would screw up and it could be my biological child. I know we would all love the child, but it would defeat the purpose of taking advantage of what we hope will be your brief period in a human body.”
Danny looked at him, his eyes dark with desire. “Devinshea, you don’t understand what I want. I assure you the rules haven’t changed on pregnancy. You can’t get me pregnant.”
Dev’s eyes flared and I sat straight up, all the languor of my previous orgasm fleeing in an instant because this hadn’t happened.
Oh, it had happened the other way. Daniel had taken Dev, but somehow they hadn’t gotten around to Dev taking Danny. There had been something deep between them, some place they’d decided not to go to, likely Daniel’s sexuality. Unlike Dev, Daniel hadn’t grown up in a place where all forms of sexuality were encouraged. He’d grown up human, and honestly, while I love my dad, he wasn’t the most free-thinking man.
But Dev and Danny had seemed happy with their roles, so I didn’t push.
“What are you saying, Daniel?” All that was left on Dev’s face was pure longing.
“I’m saying that the last few days have shown me what I should have known before. That you will love me no matter what. That the two of you see me better than I see myself, and I want to be the man I am in your eyes.” Daniel kept a hand on Dev and reached out to me. “If I get one thing out of this clusterfuck, it’s that I don’t need superpowers to be a good man. I need to love and respect my partners. I need to be okay with the things I want from them and know that they will always give them to me. Devinshea, I want you inside me. You’re already there. You’re already in every part of me.”
Dev’s face lit with what looked like pure joy. “There is nothing I want more, my king.”
“He’s excellent at it, Danny,” I promised him. “He has fucked my ass many times, and I’m always good in the morning.”
Danny wrinkled his nose. “You’re on vampire blood. You heal like lightning.” He shook his head. “Come here. I’ll love all of it. Let me have you both tonight. It’s how I always want to be.”
In the middle. Danny had never once been in the middle. All this time and he was finally going to feel what it meant to be center, to be surrounded and loved.
I let Daniel settle me on the bed, let his hands run all over my body as though he needed to explore though he’d touched me a thousand times before. He spread my legs and got to his knees, tasting me with all the passion Dev had shown him. He licked and sucked me until I
