"Yeah. If you don't mind."
"I'll talk to my parents."
"Thanks, Victoria." I smiled at her.
"Of course."
"I am working on a plan for rescuing Ash," Nikolai said. "Need to do that soon."
"Besides staying alive, that is our next priority, right? That will tip the balance completely," I said.
"If we do rescue him, there's a chance he'll take care of our problem for us," Allan replied.
"How's that?" Victoria's voice sounded a little more normal.
"Well, he's powerful, and I imagine he's more than a little pissed off at them," Allan answered.
"Gottcha."
"Dinner's ready," Ed interrupted.
The increasingly delicious scent of hamburgers was making my stomach grumble and I was grateful for the change in topic, too. We all climbed off the bed and dug in.

"So, Doc," Victoria asked once we were alone back in our dorm room. "Really?"
"Yeah."
"He drinks blood?"
"Yeah." I tried really hard to say that last casually. I really didn't feel like sharing those details of my personal life. "He usually gets by on a combination of protein drinks, tea, and occasionally blood. Though, I think he just likes tea. I don't think it actually does anything for him."
She was quiet for a minute and I looked at her. She stared at the ground. "I mean, I guess I never suspected that. It really does explain a lot though. Okay, so what's up with him and Nik?"
I smiled. "Nikolai is into him, he's into Nikolai." I didn't need to share Allan's interest unless she asked. He wasn't as obvious in his affection with anyone, though I had caught quite a bit more casual touching than I'd noticed previously. It made me glad.
"And you're okay with that?"
"I mean, I'm dating like, four guys. If they're also into each other, that's completely fine with me."
"How into each other are they?" She waggled her eyebrows.
"I, uh, guess I never asked. They'll tell me if they want me to know."
"It is kind of hot to see guys that comfortable with each other."
"It's really hot," I agreed, cheeks warming.
She laughed and threw a pillow at me.
Chapter 7
Sofia
I followed Ed as he broke a trail through the snow on their property. Allan trailed behind a short distance. I kept alert for anything that might be magic and the guys kept their noses alert for any strange scents. Even in human form, their sense of smell was nearly as good as when they were wolves.
Nikolai had sent me and the guys on a mission to ring the property in more wards. Though snow still covered the ground, the sun shone, and it was comfortable in a light jacket with our level of exertion. The crisp, pine scented air melted away some of my tension.
It was one of our shorter class days so we had a couple of hours until the sun set, though days were very short and I wasn't sure we would finish before it got dark. Still, Ed and Allan wouldn't get cold easily at all and I had magic.
We were about halfway done when I found a rock on the upper edge of the property with a fantastic view of the valley. The snow had melted off the rock, and the sun had warmed it enough that it was dry. I pressed a bit of magic into it, warming it further before I hopped up onto the rock and sat cross legged, staring out over the snow-covered valley. According to the guys, we should have snow on the ground until spring.
It really was beautiful, especially with all of the pine trees lending green to the winter scene.
Ed sat on one side of me and Allan the other. They sat close so our shoulders were touching and I sighed, content.
"Sofia?" Ed took my hand.
"Yeah?" I rested my head on his shoulder.
"You still really want all of us?" He sounded uncertain.
I could guess that his real question was, 'you really still want me?' and I sighed. I hated hearing that uncertainty in his voice.
"Of course." I put as much conviction in my voice as I could, but I knew he really needed more. "I get different things from each of you." I flipped the hand he held over revealing his wrist and the pack tattoo we had magically formed. With my free hand I lightly traced the pawprints, one for each of my guys and one for me. Our pack bond was probably what had saved me from being completely lost and destroyed when the Andersons had forced the demon to possess me.
He sucked in a breath when I ran my fingers along his skin.
"Nikolai and Doc, well, we got lucky we found Nikolai."
Allan chuckled and Ed nodded.
"Doc holds everything together. Allan," I glanced over at him and took his hand with my free one. "Allan makes sure we all stay grounded and on track, and you are like my sunshine on a rainy day. Always cheering me up. We all have our parts to play in this pack. It's why we work. Besides, without you two, I would have slipped away while Doc and Nikolai were trying to release the demon."
Ed looked in my eyes. I met his sky-blue ones and let my love for him shine through.
"You know I love you, right?" I hadn't told him yet and guilt weight on me. I should have found time to talk to him sooner. He was the least secure in our relationship.
His expression lightened. "I love you, too, Sofia." He breathed the words, as if not quite sure he was actually saying them out loud.
Happy butterflies danced through my stomach at his words. I grinned, letting him see how pleased that made me.
"Besides, I think if it was just me with Nikolai and Doc I'd be way too intimidated." I winked. "You two are pretty badass, but your experiences are still closer to my own. That's important to me."
Ed leaned forward and I met his lips with mine. He pulled me onto his lap and I wrapped my legs around his waist so I was facing him, pressed against his firm chest and drinking in his warmth as the air cooled around us.
I buried my hands in his blond hair and held him tight as we kissed. He gripped my back and held me close, making me feel safe, making me feel like we belonged to each other. For a minute the rest of the world disappeared and it was just me and him. Nothing else mattered.
We leaned back to catch our breaths. The pleased twinkle in his sky blue eyes warmed me. How had I gotten so lucky as to find these men?
Not wanting to leave Allan out, and needing his arms around me, too, I scooted off of Ed's lap and twisted around until I faced Allan. He didn't look like he felt at all left out, more that he was happy to see me in Ed's arms.
I gave him a mischievous grin and arched an eyebrow.
He held out his hands and I let him pull me against him. Instead of pulling me into his lap like Ed had, he leaned me back, supporting me with his arm under my shoulders so that I lay over his lap instead as if he were tipping me backward in a dance. I put my arm around his neck and we kissed. He held me tenderly, but firmly, taking my breath away with the love I could feel in his grip, in the way his lips tasted mine, the intense look in his eyes when he eventually leaned back.
I couldn't help the big smile on my face when I sat back up between the two of them. Ed acted reassured, though it tugged at my heart that he had been worried. Allan, he was, as always, harder to read, but even he had relaxed.
"You know," I said slyly, "we have a little time before the sun sets and I do have a spell to see in the dark now."
Ed and Allan traded a glance and Ed arched an eyebrow at his brother before a grin spread across his face.
"What would you like to do with our time?" Allan shifted until he was pressed up against my back, lips against my neck, fingers threaded through my short hair.
"Oh, I don't know." My words came out in breathy gasps as his warm breath tickled my neck. "Contemplate the scenery?"
"I could go for a little scenery appreciation," Ed replied, slipping his fingers under my shirt and running his warm hands up my stomach as he pulled my shirt higher. "Will you be warm enough?"
"With the two of you to keep me warm? Absolutely." I did let a little more of my magic flow
into the rock we were sitting on, warming it more.
Ed tugged on my shirt, and I leaned away from Allan so Ed could pull it off. Allan unhooked my bra and I let that slide off my arms. Then I lay back against Allan while Ed worked on my boots. Once those were off, my jeans and my panties came off fast. Before the roughness of the granite rock could hurt me, Allan had lifted me to his lap. I hooked my legs over his. He scooted us toward the edge of the rock and spread my legs and let me lean back against him, soft lips caressing my neck as his fingers trailed down my stomach.
"Good view," Ed growled in appreciation.
I stared at my wolf, as the wilderness filled his eyes while they roved over me. That hungry look banished any embarrassment I might have felt being so exposed in front of him. Allan rumbled against my back, his hands working into my folds, rubbing gently at first, dipping into my wet core and then circling my sensitive nub.
Moaning, I tried to think through the building pleasure. I wanted them both, but I wasn't sure if they would want to share that experience or not.
Allan's other hand cupped my throat, tilting my neck back until I leaned my head on his shoulder while he gently nipped at the curve of my neck. I trembled as the pleasure built in my core, hips jerking a little as he rubbed. I pressed back against his firm erection, wanting him inside me, but not quite sure if now was the time to ask.
Ed slid his hands up my thighs before he knelt in front of me. Allan's hand trailed back up my stomach and Ed's tongue took over.
I cried out, hips bucking as he licked over my clit before thrusting a finger into my opening. Shaking, sweat collecting between my breasts, as Allan gave them some attention while he nibbled my neck, I groaned as Ed teased me toward a climax. I wanted to tell him to go faster, but at the same time I wanted to enjoy every minute of this forever. This had almost been taken from all of us and still could be. I was never going to take any of the time I had with my guys for granted.
Ed added a finger, working with his tongue and his hand until I was almost begging for a release, thrusting against his face, wanting more.
He finally stopped teasing me, working in earnest while Allan applied his teeth to my shoulder.
I cried out, thrusting against him as I climaxed.
Ed rumbled in pleasure as I shuddered against both of them, lightheaded.
"My turn," Allan whispered.
Before I could really comprehend that they meant to trade places, Ed took me from Allan, spreading my legs with his, supporting my back with his chest, sitting me much as Allan had. I could feel him hard and ready, pressed against my back. I ground against him, relishing the deep groan he rewarded me with. It vibrated through me, turning me on even more.
Allan knelt in front of me, tongue going to work on my sensitive nub. I twitched, still feeling the previous orgasm. He went slowly, gently taking his time and I relaxed into his touch. Ed cupped my breasts, pinching a nipple gently and kissing my jaw when I leaned back against him.
Allan's tongue was like magic as he worked it around my clit. I gasped, tilting my head until Ed could capture my lips while Allan brought me closer and closer to another release.
He slid one hand up my thigh, cupping my hip with the other. Allan worked his tongue down until he was licking into my opening.
I moaned into Ed's mouth, thrusting against Allan's tongue. Allan's fingers found my clit and rubbed small circles while his tongue worked, building me further. I cried out, trembling as my body responded to my wolves.
Allan leaned back, eyes shining with pleasure in the twilight.
Not really able to move, I lay in Ed's embrace, panting, trembling with aftershocks.
"Good scenery," Allan murmured.
"Very good," Ed agreed.
I couldn't quite find the words to reply so I just nodded my head while I recovered.
Finally, I thought I could move without collapsing and I sat up.
"I think it's my turn to enjoy the scenery," I managed to say.
Ed and Allan traded another glance before they grinned. "We still have time," Ed answered.
I purred in pleasure. "I want both of you," I said, then blurted out, "when you're ready," as their eyes widened.
"At the same time?" Allan asked softly.
"Well, I mean, whatever you two want. And it doesn't have to be now." I hoped I hadn't pushed them too fast.
Ed and Allan exchanged another one of their looks before Allan pulled off his shirt and laid it down on the rock.
"Neither of us have ever done this before," Allan said. "But we're willing to give it a try. Just, uh, excuse any fumbles."
My lips curled, pleased, though I realized I needed to ask what exactly they had in mind, because I wasn't even sure how this would work.
"Are you thinking, um, both at once? Or like, taking turns?" I hated that I sounded a little nervous, but I was.
"What do you want?" Ed came up behind me and kissed my neck. "We will do whatever you want."
"I'm not much more experienced than you are," I whispered.
Allan ran his hands down my sides, pulling a moan from me. "That's okay. Let's take turns this time." He kissed my forehead. "Next time we'll see about sharing. Maybe we can take lessons from Nikolai. I'm sure he's got some ideas in that area."
I snorted, though I could tell Allan wasn't completely joking, either.
"Though, I think you're so used to having all of us touch you," he grinned, "that we should share that pleasure." He glanced at Ed and I think he got an affirmative from his brother.
I glanced over my shoulder at Ed. He grinned back at me and gestured toward Allan.
Taking his lead, I put my attention on his brother. Allan pulled his boots off then waited for me, probably making sure I was certain. Reaching forward, I ran my hands over his muscled abs.
He sighed in pleasure, breath hitching as I popped the button on his jeans and slowly slid down the zipper. I pulled his pants and boxers down, and he stepped out of them. I ran my hands down his hard length, enjoying the feel of him as he twitched under my touch.
I took him into my mouth, tongue working along his tip before sucking him into my mouth as far as I could manage. Allan groaned, hands on my shoulders, thrusting gently as I worked him in my mouth.
"Sofia, I'm not going to last that long as it is," he gasped.
I released him, laughing gently. "Totally understandable."
He lay back on the rock, his shirt providing a little protection from the rough surface. "Let me take the beating."
I straddled him, hovering over him for a moment before he nodded and I took him into my hand, guiding him to my opening. He groaned as I slowly slid down his length, letting him fill me. This was the first time I'd ever used this position, and I moaned as he filled me, hitting me in all the right spots.
"Good?" I asked.
"Oh, yes." His hands found my thighs, fingers digging in a little as I began to move.
Ed slid in behind me, hands cupping my breasts for a moment, before he whispered in my ear. "I'm going to let him have you to himself for his first time." He kissed my neck and moved away.
I nodded acceptance and turned my attention back to Allan. He thrust into me, and I rocked my hips with his movement until we found a good rhythm.
Leaning forward slightly, I ran my hands over his pecks, playing with his nipples as he held my gaze. I could feel my climax building again as he hit all the right places, wanting to help it along a little, I took one of my hands back, trailing it down my stomach and grinned as his eyes widened as I dropped my hand to my clit, rubbing. He rumbled in pleasure as I clenched around him while he thrust, building to both of our climaxes.
Mine hit me first, making me cry out, which sent Allan over the edge. He dug his fingers in, joining my cry of pleasure with his own.
I collapsed on his chest and he held me for a while, while we breathed together, bodies trembling. He ran his hands lightly over my back, and I lay there, enjoying the extra attention.
After
a little while I carefully slid off of him. He twitched, still sensitive. I lay next to him on the magic-warmed rock.
"Sofia, that was amazing," he said.
"Yeah, it was." I curled against him, forgetting about everything else for a few minutes before I sat up.
Ed stood nearby, leaning against an aspen tree. He grinned when he met my gaze.
"That was hot."
I arched an eyebrow and tilted my head, inviting him to join us.
He shook his head. "I'll get my turn later." He did come over and give me a thorough kiss that stole my breath. "I don't want to wear you out too much."
Though I certainly wouldn't have minded continuing on with Ed, I was a little grateful I would get some recovery time. Both of them were on the larger side and I was feeling a little sore.
"Soon," I promised him.
"Very soon," he agreed. "Shall we finish setting the wards so we can get back?"
"Yeah. Sun is going to go down soon," I agreed and glanced over at Allan. He nodded agreement.
I cast the cleaning spell over all of us, getting a surprised yelp from both of my wolves, before Allan and I dressed.
Ed took the lead as we headed out to finish our task. Allan followed, and before long we had made our way back to the yurt where Nikolai was working on dinner. Doc supervised, though I had a feeling he was spending more time staring at Nikolai's ass then actually helping. Especially since he really couldn't cook.
Ed and Allan jumped in to help Nikolai, much to the mage's relief. They were the real chefs of the family.
I sat on the bed next to Doc and leaned against me, turning his attention from Nikolai to me.
"How'd it go?"
"Good."
He arched his eyebrows and I blushed. Could he tell what we had been up to, even with Nikolai's cleaning spell? Maybe it was just obvious. Maybe they had sensed something through the pack bond? Not that it mattered. Regardless, he looked pleased.
Doc's hair was already down so I ran my fingers through it and rested against him.
"Yes, could feel wards. You did very well," Nikolai added.
