Elora POV
I remained in the room; I didn’t want to argue, hadn’t this day been bad enough without us at each other’s throat trying to shift the blame. I couldn’t face them, not if I were just going to be ridiculed over one mistake. They made their fair share of mistakes and yet I make one and they give up on me. I wasn’t sure how long I was in the room, but I eventually fell asleep everything becoming to much. I was mentally drained, I had enough. It was late in the night when I woke to the door creaking open. Light from outside creeping into the room making my eyes flutter open before feeling the bed dip beside me.
Warmth enveloping me as his arms wrapped around me pulling me flush against him. Hearing him sigh before pressing his face into my shoulder. “I know you’re awake” His voice rough next to my ear.
“Yeah, because you woke me” I mumble.
“Why are you hiding in here away from us” Silas questioned. I didn’t bother answering. He knew exactly why I was in here.
“Where is Matitus?” I ask.
“Talking to his brother, trying to figure out a plan”
“Plan?”
“Yes Elora, figure out how to bring them back, we always thought they were dead, that their human counterpart was gone once they become what they are”
“How come they are like that?” I ask curious as to why they were different, how they managed to keep themselves from turning out the way the rest did.
“Because we didn’t lose our mates, Dakari lost his first mate and left, we never saw him again after that. Slowly one by one we lost all of them, well we thought we did”
“Have you got any siblings?”
“No, Elora. I was an only child” Silas answers.
“Well that explains a lot then” I tell him. Silas huffs.
“Explains what?” He asks.
“Why you don’t play well with others. Why you don’t like to share”
“I share you and you are an only child too, Elora”
“Different upbringing Silas, when you have nothing, you expect nothing, therefore can give everything because you realise you don’t need anything”
“So, you think I am selfish?” He asks, but I could hear the smile in his voice.
“No, I am just saying you have a sense of entitlement. Ownership if you will”
“Hmm, you have an interesting mind, but your wrong I would give up everything in a heartbeat to have you”
“Except your kingdom, you said it yourself I am just a bed toy” I tell him, his words coming back to me, and the way he said it.
Silas rolls me with one hand to face him but instead, I sit up leaning against the headboard and flicking on the lamp. He runs his hand down his face.
“The same thing happened when Dragus and Matitus gave themselves to me, they gave me some of their magic” I tell him, and his eyes snap to mine.
He traces his marking, tingles rushing everywhere he touched. Silas smirks before pulling me against him, his hands going to my hair as he tugs it, making my head snap back as his lips trailed down my neck, his other hand squeezes my ass as he presses his erection against me.
“I did say I was going to turn that ass red” He says smacking it. My panties dampening with my arousal when the door suddenly opens making me jump and climb off his lap.
“If anyone is smacking that ass I am, though I don’t think that is really a punishment for her” Matitus growls.
“You two always walk in at the worst times” Silas tells them. I try to pull the blanket around me as Matitus climbs on the bed before tugging it down taking it from me. Dragus leaning against the door frame but neither of them looked angry. Matitus kneels on the end of the bed before his eyes dart down to stomach and he gasps a crooked grin turning up his lips, Dragus steps closer and I can feel both their shock through the bond. Dragus eyes going to me, making me feel a little exposed with their intent gazes.
“You pledged to her?” Dragus murmurs.
“Well let’s not make a big deal out it”- Silas waves them off before suddenly Matitus launched himself at him, his lips smashing into Silas who seemed shocked by his reaction. While I felt confused, Dragus was smiling from ear to ear as he walks toward me. I hear Silas groan making me look at them as Matitus assaulted his mouth, arousal flooding me when Matitus lips move to his neck and across his chest.
“I fucking love you, you stubborn ass dragon” Matitus tells him, and I could feel Silas trying to figure out what was going on, but at the same time loving his mates attention. Dragus climbs onto the bed between my legs before leaning over me and grabbing the back of Silas’s head, kissing him just as harshly. I shake my head giving up on trying to figure out whatever has made them so excited so suddenly. Figuring I will leave them to it. I wriggle out from under Dragus intending to go shower since I was now up. When suddenly Dragus arm snakes around my waist.
“And where do you think you're going love?” He says ripping me back on the bed, before climbing on top of me, kissing me with the same hunger he had with Silas. I moan as his tongue slips in my mouth before Matitus grips my chin pulling my face in his direction, his lips moulding around mine.
