A Baby Dragon for Christmas Read online

Page 2


  I climb back onto the bed, right on top of To’Kah. He grabs my hips as he wakes up with a start. His eyes smolder into mine, letting me know he is still pissed off about the Fae proposal. But then they soften as he takes in my bump and runs his hands over it in awe.

  “You’re perfect,” he says.

  “She knows,” Rex replies before I can agree.

  I snort laugh and lean over to shake Pres awake. “All hands on deck,” I order as he opens his eyes, all blue and foggy and adorable.

  “As you wish,” he says gruffly, getting to his knees. “Ass or pussy?”

  I gawk at him. “How rude!” I complain.

  “Sorry, I’m still half asleep. Just need to know how much work I have to put in.”

  Rex lets out a loud guffaw. “Keep that up and she won’t let you within a mile of either.”

  I grin at him. “Oh, how well you know me, my love.”

  He grins back and we fall into a heated embrace, devouring each other as I grind down on To’Kah’s already erect cock.

  Oh, this morning is turning out to be pretty damn good so far.

  ~To’Kah~

  I WATCH MY WIFE KISS her Alpha husband, her half Fae husband, and it makes me so angry, I want to rip her away from him. I’ve known Rexus a very long time and I never knew. I never even suspected that he might be half Fae. How did we not know this? Another cover-up by our former Empress, no doubt. It seems She had more secrets than anyone knew.

  I drag my eyes away from them and place my hands on her bump. I feel the baby kick straight away and it startles me, but it also makes me fall headlong in love with the little Dragon growing inside her.

  I breathe out as Delinda’s hands cover mine. She looks down at me with a smile.

  “Did you feel that?” she whispers.

  “Yes,” I whisper back. I sit up, jostling her over my lap. She grips my hands tighter. “I—I...gods, Delinda, you really are perfect. Growing this child inside you, giving me this special gift. I craved you for so long, but I never thought we would have a future together. Now, not only are we married but you are pregnant with my child. It’s more than I could ever have hoped for.”

  Her eyes cloud over for a moment before she smiles brightly at me. I don’t get a chance to wonder what that means as she leans forward and kisses me, pushing me back to the bed, wiggling over my dick in that enticing way that makes me grab myself and shove inside her without hesitation. I groan as her wet heat envelops me, taking my entire length in one hard thrust.

  “Ass it is then,” Pres mutters, moving in behind her, but Rex stops him before I can.

  “Not a chance,” he says. “We aren’t treating her like an animal when she is in this delicate state.”

  Delinda snorts and pulls back from kissing me. “I’m immortal. So is this baby. We’ll be fine.”

  “Still, it’s the principle,” he huffs.

  As angry as I am with my best friend right now, I have to agree with him. “He’s right, Delly. We can’t do that to you while you are like this.”

  “Boo,” she pouts at us, but her mood doesn’t last long as Pres drops his mouth to her nipple and sucks her so hard, she gasps and runs her hands into his short hair.

  Rex attends to the other one and I sit back and let the love of my life bounce up and down on me as she pleases herself. Her beautiful tits are even more luscious right now, her nipples darker and more enticing. If she didn’t already have two men attached to her, suckling on her, I would grab her and flip us over so that I could ravage those ripe buds myself.

  “Bite me,” she rasps, throwing her head back, her hands clutching her husbands to her. “I want to feel you draw blood.”

  I freeze under her. What is she looking for? A Vampire bite? I know she has never experienced that. She’d mentioned it a while back, that she wondered what it felt like to have fangs slicing into her skin, drinking her blood. I hadn’t thought much of it at the time, assuming it was some more jealousy over her mother, but now it makes me paranoid.

  I’m not the only one, it seems. Rex is looking down at her with an odd look, but then he does something that I wish that I had thought of first. He does a Partial Shift of his teeth, changing them to smaller versions of his wickedly sharp Dragon teeth. Then he leans forward and bites her on her neck, piercing her skin, making her scream. But it’s all pleasure. She must be in pain, but all she is feeling is the pleasure. She clenches around me, coming so hard, I grunt as I can’t help but spurt inside her.

  “Fuck,” Pres mutters. “Are you drinking her blood?”

  I look at Rex. It is clear that he is swallowing. It aggravates me. He is violating her. I sit up and give him a shove on his forehead, tearing his fangs from her neck.

  “Don’t stop,” she pants. “More. Take more.”

  “No!” I say forcefully as Rex leans in again. His eyes have gone wild. I can hear that his heart is racing from here. “It’s too potent, too powerful for you to handle.”

  “I want to taste it,” Pres moans desperately. “How do you do that Partial Shift?”

  “Another time!” Delinda snaps at them, coming back down from her bite-high.

  This whole situation has me far beyond concerned. If she goes seeking this out from a Vampire, we are all doomed.

  She shoves me back to the bed hard and gets off me to leap at her Alpha. He grabs her and slides into her without further ado.

  “Fuck, I love you,” she pants at him, riding him hard. “I need you to do that again.”

  The jealousy I feel as Rex gives her a shit-eating grin, consumes me. He doesn’t hesitate to chomp down on the other side of her neck. She wraps her legs around him tightly as he holds her as close as her bump will allow.

  “Fuck,” she rasps. “Fuck, yes...” She groans with desire as the climax races through her. She is getting off on these bites in a big way.

  “Rex,” I say quietly. “Enough.”

  I sit up and take her from him, giving her to Pres.

  He bends her over, positioning her on her hands and knees, and delves in between her legs. Then, he lubes up her ass and with a soft pant, he starts to fuck her slowly. She wiggles with delight and I’m satisfied that she has forgotten about this for the moment.

  I glare at Rex, but he doesn’t give a shit, it seems. He is covered in her blood and enjoying every second of the immense high that it must’ve given him. He slides underneath her to take her nipple in his mouth again, but not before I see the flash of his fangs. He is about to bite her again and I need to do something about this. I grab his cock and look at Delly for permission. Her eyes light up and she nods quickly, her eyes hooding with desire as I bend over and take him in my mouth.

  He grunts in surprise and relaxes under my touch. He lets go of Delinda and Shifts back as I take his cock in so deep, I feel him jerk violently in my mouth.

  “Fuck,” he breathes before Delinda shuffles a bit closer to him to kiss him deeply.

  Pres comes in her ass suddenly as he watches me suck off Rex. I grin to myself. I have complete control over everyone now. I have to admit, it’s intoxicating. I get why Delinda loves having us all see to her so much. She never tires of it. I assumed at some point, she would ask us to leave her alone and take us one-on-one for a while, but she never has. She craves this power and I understand why.

  I work really hard on Rex. I never thought having another man’s dick in my mouth could turn me on so much. I’m rock hard, ready to burst. When Delinda slips in next to me, lying on her side as she takes me in her mouth, I moan, the sound muffled by Rex’s engorged cock.

  I slide my tongue over his tip, circling it. I take everything that Delinda does to me that I love and put it into practice on Rex.

  “Fuck,” he roars when I close my mouth over him again and take him as deep as I can without gagging.

  Delinda deepthroats me at the same time, squeezing my balls gently.

  She shuffles around and opens her legs wide for Pres to nestle in between them, licking her pus
sy and sucking on her clit, sliding his fingers inside her.

  “Oh, yes,” Rex groans and comes in my mouth, spurting out his hot seed in an orgasm that goes on and on.

  I follow him within seconds, coming in Delinda’s mouth as she laps up every last drop from me.

  She cries out as Pres coaxes another climax from her and then all that’s left is for Rex to crawl over to Pres and take him in his hand, jerking him off gently at first and then with a bit more vigor.

  “You ready for more, kid?” he breathes.

  Pres’s eyes go wide and he looks to Delinda for assistance.

  I smile at him. He has fucked me, but he has yet to be fucked. It’s a completely different experience.

  “All of you,” Delinda murmurs. “I want to see all of you together.”

  “I’m game,” I murmur and move in behind Pres, gripping the back of his neck. “How do you want us?” I whisper in his ear.

  His breathing goes shallow. He is nervous. He licks his lips and looks at Delinda again. She takes pity on him and decides for him. “Rex has been dying to fuck you since that first night,” she says with a wicked smile.

  “Oh, Little Dragon,” Rex groans. “You do love me, don’t you?”

  “You know it,” she replies, licking her lips, her eyes roving over all of us.

  I accept her decision and disappear into the bathroom for a washcloth and a tin of Vaseline.

  I hand them both to Pres and turn around with a grin at Delinda that she returns with delight. She sits up on her knees and watches what Pres is doing.

  “Wait!” she calls out suddenly. “One at a time,” she adds.

  Rex and l nod and then look to Pres to see which one of us goes first.

  ~Pres~

  I GULP AND GLANCE BETWEEN the two men, looking expectantly at me, and then at the tin in my hand.

  “Uhm,” I mutter and then jump as a banging on the door startles us all.

  “Delly!” Aefre shouts through the door. “I need to speak to you! I’m coming in!”

  She bursts through the door, her hand covering her eyes.

  “Hey!” Rex snaps at her, but she waves her free hand at him.

  “Go!” she roars and all three of us Astral as one to the bathroom.

  “What the fuck?” Rex growls, heading to the shower and turning it on. “That was fucking rude!”

  I place the tin on the countertop and breathe out in relief. I don’t appreciate being put in the middle like that. I knew it would happen one day. I knew Delinda would want to watch it, and it’s not like I’m not ready. I’m just...

  “Nerves?” To’Kah asks kindly.

  I nod, keeping my back to them. I feel foolish and so young next to them. This only exacerbates that feeling.

  Rex huffs and storms into the shower.

  “Sorry,” I mutter to him.

  “What are you sorry for?” he barks at me. “It’s that woman! She is infuriating!”

  “You don’t know the half of it,” To’Kah mutters.

  Rex sticks his head out of the shower and gives him a ferocious glare. “Oh, yes, you and she were a thing once.”

  “Pah, hardly,” To’Kah scoffs, folding his arms across his chest, although his cheeks have gone darker with a blush. “No man can get past that prick she is married to, and you would have to be a fool to try.”

  “But you did try,” Rex points out and then ducks back into the shower. “Anyway, don’t think I’ll forget about this, kid. Next time Delinda gives us the go ahead, you’re mine.”

  “I know,” I say, happy to go along with it now that I’m pretty sure I’ve been let off the hook for today. Delinda and her mother are in the midst of a screaming match that we can’t help but overhear, being shoved away in the bathroom right next to the bedroom.

  “YOU CAN’T LEAVE!” Delinda yells, which catches all of our attention.

  “Leave?” Rex mouths, poking his head back out of the shower, his eyes bright.

  “Oh, please let her leave,” To’Kah mutters.

  “Even if she does, Remiel will still be here,” I say, just to have something to contribute to this. I don’t have an issue with Aefre. She has been nothing but kind to me. I don’t have a history with her, and I haven’t gotten on her bad side by being an asshole to her daughter.

  We leap into action when we hear Delinda start crying, racing to the door to burst through, only to be thrown back by a forcefield so fierce, it knocks us back into the middle of the bathroom in a naked pile of full-grown Dragons.

  How humiliating.

  “Ow,” I complain, rubbing my head, while trying to shove To’Kah off me. He weighs a fucking ton, all solid muscle and as big as a tree. “Man, she is powerful.”

  “You don't know...” To’Kah starts.

  “If you finish that sentence with ‘the half of it’, I will cleave you in half,” Rex grumbles, getting to his feet and Astralling himself dry and clothed.

  I sigh and duck into the shower that is still running. Might as well, while we are stuck in here. To’Kah joins me and snatches the soap up before I can reach for it.

  “This isn’t happening,” I say, indicating the two of us.

  He smirks at me. “Oh, I know. Delly wouldn’t approve. However, I know how long you take to shower, so I’m jumping the queue.”

  I glare at him. So, I like to take long showers. So what? I don’t take nearly as long as Delinda.

  I feel ridiculous standing in the massive shower with him, but getting out would be subject to more ridicule, so I wait until he’s finished and then grab the soap and wash myself in short, sharp movements to let him know how annoyed I am.

  He just laughs at me as he climbs out and Rex hands him a towel.

  Again, I feel left out. They were friends long before Delinda came along and I’m the outsider. I don’t feel that they respect me the same because I’m so much younger than them. I don’t help myself in this area, I know, but I have to do something to show them that I’m just as good as them in every way. Not for the first time, I hope that the baby that Delinda is carrying turns out to be mine in some twist of fate. I know it’s not impossible, but it does seem highly unlikely. The timing doesn’t track, but it would be wonderful all the same. To’Kah is so lucky to be having this child with her.

  My thoughts are cut short as Delinda marches into the bathroom and opens the shower door to glare at me. I blink and then realize my error. I didn’t have those mental block things up. It takes more work than I’d like, and it gives me a headache. My thoughts about the baby must’ve passed on to Delinda through the tie-to-life bond.

  I give her a sheepish smile, which she rolls her eyes at and then spins to face the other two men.

  “My mother is leaving for a time with my father. She needs to go back to Earth, but she will return in a few weeks before the baby is born,” she says and then climbs into the shower with me. She starts to clean up, so I give her space. Her mood is pissy and that always makes me nervous. She gets volatile and petty and it’s better to be out of the firing line when she gets like this.

  “I’ve got some stuff that needs sorting,” I murmur as I pass her, giving her a soft kiss.

  “See you later,” she says distractedly, and I make my escape to my workroom. It wasn’t a fabrication; I do have work to do. I want to perfect the spell that I’m working on that will ensure that Trey never gets another chance to get near Delinda again. And the same goes double for Rex’s ex, Lianna. I don’t trust either of them within a thousand feet of my wife. They are up to no good and right now, Delinda needs to concentrate on the baby, and her Empire, without complications getting in the way. I can do this for her and know that she and the baby will be safe.

  Chapter 3

  ~Delinda~

  I take my time in the shower, needing more than a minute to process the fact that my mother is abandoning me when I need her the most. And that my father is letting her. What the fuck?

  I have absolutely no idea how to progress through this
pregnancy and she was supposed to be here to help me. Damn her.

  I bite my lip as I feel a surge of guilt wash through me. She has her own baby to consider, a baby that is currently in a different Realm to their father. Of course, she needs to go back to him and her other husbands for a while.

  I will just have to pull my big girl panties on and deal with this myself. Like an Empress would.

  Empresses don’t hide in the shower feeling sorry for themselves.

  “Humph,” I mutter and turn the jets off.

  I climb out and grab a towel, wrapping it around myself as I march determinedly back into the bedroom.

  To’Kah and Rex are waiting for me, braced as if I’m about to go off on one.

  I give them both a serene smile and then Astral myself dry and dressed in a loose-fitting gown that I actually just conjured up from nothing. I didn’t have that Power before. It must be an Empress thing. Somehow, I knew how to use it and here is the proof. A bottle green dress that skims my body perfectly, showing off my bump, and falling to my feet.

  The men’s eyes light up and approach me, but I hold a hand up.

  Don’t they think about anything else except sex? Randy fuckers.

  Not that it usually bothers me, but right now, I have Empress stuff that needs dealing with.

  “Rex, please ensure that all the Dragons are assembled within the hour. We are announcing this pregnancy today,” I state.

  He nods carefully. “Of course, Princess. I’ll get Pres back.”

  “No, leave him for a bit. He needs a moment after earlier. He is...struggling with some things.” I frown as I remember all of his feelings from when he entered the bathroom.

  Rex scoffs. “Oh, please. He needs to grow a pair and stop sulking like a small child.”

  “Enough!” I bark at him, startling him. “He is my husband; you will treat him with respect.”

  He meets my challenging glare with one of his own, but then he lowers his eyes in submission. It fires up the Power surge of the Dragon Empress.

  But if I thought he would ever completely submit, I would be a fool.
