do this again.” Placing his hand on my shoulder, he gives it a fatherly squeeze. “I would like to meet Phoenix and Killian. Bring them to visit soon.”

“I’ll do that. Thank you for letting the Fae know we’re not a danger to them.”

“Of course, there is no need to fear what shouldn’t be feared.”

Walking up the beach, he disappears into the trees as I turn back toward the house. Jogging the rest of the way, I get a light exercise in. When I return, I feel rejuvenated. The guys are in the kitchen getting drinks, their eyes brightening when I join them. They take turns kissing me, then settle against the counters while I get water.

“Would you like to see our progress?” Killian asks, a smile of pride on his face.

“Of course!”

Carrying my cup of water, I follow them up the stairs to the rooftop. I’m shocked when I open the door. The partial roof is finished. From the wall where the door exits, there is now a wooden arch covering our bed. As you continue forward and step out from under the arch, they have placed the chaise lounge chair, firepit, and the small table with four seats.

Looking above me, I admire the arch inside of the flat top and sides. I have no doubt this structure was Killian’s idea. They even carved designs into the wood that look like vines and flowers.

“Wow! This is stunning.”

Setting my water on the nightstand, I sit on the bed, then lie back, looking up at the arch and its intricate details. There’s not a sliver of light coming through, and that shows how much care they put into it.

“There’s more.” Moving to the side of one of the walls, Griffin pulls a curtain from its tie, releases it, then pulls it across a bar. By doing that, he’s created another protective barrier from the sun. With it closed, no light can get into the space. Emeric steps up to the nightstand on the opposite side of the bed and uses his magic to light it. Going to the standing candle lamp along the wall, he lights that candle. It gives the space a romantic ambiance.

“I love it. You’ve all done an incredible job. You made it completely safe for Phoenix, which means so much to me.” I look at Killian. “The arch was a great idea. I love the vines and flower details.” I look at Emeric. “I love the candle lamps.” Lastly, I look at Griffin. “I love the pull-back curtain. How did you finish this so quickly?”

The three of them grin.

“We used magic,” Griffin shares. “I used magic to raise the boards, Emeric used his wings to stay elevated so he could hammer in nails, and Killian did the woodcarving.”

I tilt my head at them and frown. “The curtain and candle lamps are from the states. Which one of you snuck off to buy them?”

Griffin chuckles. “Don’t get upset, my love. I went to the resort to get them. There are always extra furnishings in storage.”

The three of them join me on the bed, sweat glistening off their sun-kissed skin.

“That makes me feel better. I adore what you’ve done. I can’t express it enough in words.”

Emeric leans toward me and lifts my chin to kiss me. “I’m sure you’ll show us in other ways.”

Caressing his wings, I lean forward and kiss him this time. “You can count on that.”

Desire flashes in their eyes, and I know what they’re all thinking. I plan on showering first, so they’ll have to wait. When I’m about to say just that, Phoenix comes through the rooftop door, wearing nothing but gray lounge pants. With the way his cock is pressing against his sweats, I’m certain he’s not wearing boxers or briefs. These men are torturing me right now.

Taking in the bedroom setup, he gives a nod of approval. “Thank you for ensuring no light gets in.”

“You’re welcome,” Emeric replies. None of them move from their spots on the bed around me. Phoenix doesn’t seem to mind. He comes forward through the only open space on the bed and lies on his chest, his striking, pale-blue eyes looking up at me, the desire in them elevating my arousal.

“I’ve decided to accept threesomes and all the other ‘somes’ that come after it.”

Emeric’s mouth quirks. “Good timing.”

“I definitely want all of you right now, but I’m showering first, and I’d like for Cyrus to join in, too.”

“Are you requesting a date night with all of us tonight?” Killian asks.

“I am.” I grin. “I’d love some wining, dining, then after, all of us in this bed.”

Emeric strokes my thigh, teasing my center. “We can make that happen.”

“Good.” Sliding off the bed, I head toward the door. “Now, I’m taking a shower before you all convince me to stay.”

Four sets of wanton gazes follow me toward the door. Damn, this is hard. I’m walking away from four horny, sexy men all laid out on our bed. Quickly, I hurry out of the bedroom for the shower.

With fresh clothes and my hair blow-dried, I step out of my room and smell dinner. Whatever they’re cooking, it smells delicious. Entering the kitchen, I’m thrilled to find all of them there, including Cyrus, all relaxed and chatting with drinks in their hands. I’m pretty sure Phoenix is holding a glass with blood in it. I don’t even want to know how that came to be, but it’s nice he’s able to drink with them.

“I love this.” With Killian the closest, I curl into his welcoming arms. “I love seeing all of you here hanging out.”

“We’re a pack,” Killian says. “It’s what we should be doing.”

Griffin opens the refrigerator with his magic and removes a bottle of beer. With the door open, I see a container with thick red liquid. Glancing at Phoenix, the corner of his mouth lifts.

“It’ll stay fresh for twenty-four hours. It’s not as good as warm, fresh blood, but it’ll do at times.”

I give an understanding nod. “Oh.”

Killian kisses
