Duality

by Layla Heart

  Looking between them, I can feel their connection, just with the looks they give each other, how they always lean together, how they always seem to belong together. And their fears... They’ve been hiding them for so long, scared that asking too much from the other would push them apart. It makes my heart ache just hearing it, I can’t imagine how they must have felt for all that time.

  “I do have another confession.” Rune glances at me. “The moment you stepped into this world, I felt you too. I was aware of you from the moment you got here. I’d never met you before, but I knew you as well as I knew the guys. One moment you didn’t exist, and the next moment it was like you’d always been at our side, even before I’d even seen you.”

  “What?” I blink, not sure what to make of that.

  “Prophecy or not, I don’t know, but you were there, right with them, like it was the most natural thing in the world. I’ve always felt uncomfortable, wrong, for having this bond with the guys, because I knew about the prophecy, that you’ll choose one of us, leaving the rest of us behind. But the moment you came here, the moment I felt you, I knew things were going to be okay.” He tugs on me, our faces not even an inch apart. “Thank you, for being ours.” Then he kisses me, softly, tenderly, taking my breath away. His lips are warm, strong, his arm around me firm, his body solid under me. When he breaks the kiss, my breathing is hard and the look in his eyes is hot, burning hot. “No matter what happens, I’m yours, always, until the end of time.” I open my mouth to reply to him, but he puts his fingers to my lips, a sparkle in his eyes. “Not yet. It’s not your time yet.”

  Kit snorts, shaking his head. “You know, you don’t get to control everything, dragon.”

  Rune’s eyes flit to him, his gaze softening. “I don’t. But you know it as well as I do, this isn’t the time for that.”

  Kit nods, then he reaches out to me, his fingers on my neck. “I’m a little jealous, he got a kiss, I haven’t gotten one yet.” He seems back to his playful self, finally, and I can’t help my grin.

  “That needs to be remedied.” I take his hand, pulling him closer to me, and then kiss him hard, right in view of Rune.

  Kit grabs me, pulling me tighter, his cock hard between us, his teeth on my lips, nibbling between kisses. As I open my mouth a little, he deepens the kiss and plunges me deep into lust, my whole body thrumming. It was hard enough sitting between the guys all afternoon, a sexy guy on either side of me, but to have them this close now... I want them, I need them. I feel raw, emotional, but also like I need more from them. Everything is so raw, and I feel like there is only one way to heal that rawness, to soothe each of us, get us closer together.

  “Your wish is our command.” Rune’s voice rumbles and the next moment, I’m caught between them on the bed. Kit at my front, his arms around me, kissing me hard and soft, constantly changing, and Rune is at my back, his arms around us both, his hard body pushing against mine, his cock in the small of my back, his lips on my neck. “I remember that this spot got very good responses from you.” He slides my hair to the side and kisses my neck, right below my ear, and desire flashes through me as I gasp out. Wow. Rune chuckles against my skin, sending shocks of craving through my body.

  I let my hands wander, one under Kit’s shirt, touching his firm abs, the ridges of muscles there, scratching my nails over his skin as he’s done to Rune before, as I cup his cock with my other hand, and he lets out a moan, breaking the kiss, meeting my eyes. “I want you inside me.” I barely recognise my own voice, so needy.

  “Are you sure you’re ready for that?” His gaze is soft, but also filled with lust. He trails his fingers over my jaw, over my lips, licking his own lips as he looks at me, his cock in my hand going harder.

  Everything inside me clenches at the thought of having him inside me, of what that would feel like, an actual cock in me, not my fingers, not a toy, but a cock, attached to a sexy guy like Kit. I nod, taking his fingers into my mouth, sucking on them. There is nothing I want more right now than have him inside me. I feel like that would complete this connection, these emotions, that it would grow something bigger between us.

  “Okay.” He grins, his voice hoarse, his eyes burning hot. “But you’re going to need to wear fewer layers of clothes for it.”

  “I can help with that.” Rune rumbles, and his hands wander down, sliding under my shirt and his rough and strong hands are on my skin, making me only heat up more, his touch stoking the flames inside me.

  Kit slides off the bed, smirking as he pulls a condom from his pocket and puts it on the bed between us. “Can’t lose that one.” Then he quickly pulls his shirt off, before putting his hands over the button of his jeans, waiting for me, raising one eyebrow as he looks over us.

  I squirm against Rune, trying to move, but he’s got me caught against him, his hard cock against my back making me want him too, either of them, as long as they stop teasing me. Then he loosens his grip and helps me take my shirt off, before taking my bra off too. He puts his hands over my breasts, rolling my nipples between his fingers, making me moan and push back against him, which makes him rumble against my skin, nip at my neck, rushing need through me.

  “Good.” Kit pulls my attention back to him, opening his jeans and pushing them down with his boxer briefs at the same time. “If I’d known this would happen, I’d have worn something a little sexier...” He looks down, smirking, playful. “I’d have worn one of my good pairs.”

  I can only stare at his hard cock, jutting out in front of him, all hard and ready. I don’t care about his underwear, I have no idea what it even looks like, I just want to touch him already.

  “Don’t let him fool you, he only has sexy underwear,” Rune whispers in my ear as one of his hands slides down, over my stomach before stopping over the button of my jeans, and I squeeze my legs together, trying to get some friction going to get rid of this tension in me, just a little relief.

  Fucking hell. These guys know how to tease...

  Since Rune doesn’t seem to want to move any faster, I reach down myself, opening my jeans and pushing them off as fast as I can. Teasing isn’t going to get me anywhere, especially not anywhere I want to be... It’s not going to solve this burning heat inside my core, ready to spill over.

  Kit climbs back on the bed, his body moving almost like a cat, prowling, having a prey in his sight. Then he holds up the condom, grinning. “You know how to use this?”

  I take it from him, sitting on my knees, and Rune also quickly undresses, moving the bed so much that I need to put my hand on the bed to steady myself until he’s settled down again, giving me a great view of his naked body too. “No practical experience, but I’m sure I can make it work.” I open the foil, a little surprised by the resistance it gives, and slide the condom out. I’ve touched condoms before, but knowing that you’ll actually be using it on a person you want to have sex with instead of a banana for sex ed is very different.

  Kit lies down on his back, his cock leaving a small wet spot on his stomach as it bumps up and down a little, like sexy kisses, and it makes me smile, cock kisses. Then I climb over him, sitting on his thighs, and I grab his cock. It’s hot and firm, surprising me with the texture, with how warm he is.

  “You don’t have to do it if you’re scared. If you’re not sure.” Kit reaches down, his fingers trailing on my arms.

  I look up at him, smiling at how he’s looking at me, his caring. “Just admiring the tools. Checking if the carpet matches the drapes, you know.” I wink. “It does.” Then I slowly roll the condom onto him, making sure to slide my hands over him as much as I can, which makes him buck up into my hands and he grips the sheets under him, letting out a deep moan. Wow. I stare at him a few moments, mesmerised by the sight, my own need getting more and more.

  Then I climb up, holding his cock with one hand as I slowly position myself over him.

  This is happening, this is really happening... My first time having sex with another person, and this time it’s actually happening
to me, instead of reading about some romance book heroine. Yes!

  I carefully lower myself over Kit’s cock, feeling how he spreads me, his girth so much more than the two fingers I sometimes use myself, the experience totally different. Nothing is like what I expected it to be like, but so so much better.

  Oh, fuck.

  I swallow hard, waiting for a few moments. This sensation, the sensation of him filling me...

  Heady. Overwhelming. So good!

  I can’t help but stare at them, at how Litha is taking in Kit, their whole bodies flushed, their breathing hard, and I’m trying my best not to touch my cock, or I’ll come, just from their feelings, their emotions. This is dangerous, really dangerous. I’m more turned on than I’ve ever been before.

  “Are you okay?” Kit reaches out to her, siding his fingers over her where he can, and she nods, letting out shallow breaths.

  “Just not used to this.” She bites her lower lip as she smiles and then lowers herself so she’s sitting on his hips fully, making them both moan out.

  Their lust, their passion, it’s so strong and heady, and I can’t do anything but stare at them, mesmerised by them, their beauty, their excitement. It’s so amazing to watch.

  Then Litha leans forward, giving Kit a kiss, and they both let out another deep moan, which I can feel vibrate inside me. Hell... Fucking hell.

  My own moan must have escaped me as Kit turns his head and meets my eyes, a devilish smirk on his lips. “I’m sure you still remember what you said that got me all hot and bothered when we were waiting at the headmaster’s office... That would be a great idea right now.”

  I gape at him. How can he even think of that now? For fucks sake... He’s got Litha on top of him, he’s inside her, and he wants me to join in?

  Litha looks between us, her eyes filled with scorching lust. “Which was?”

  “No.” I shake my head. “Maybe another time.” This is way too soon for her. They’re having their own moment, I don’t need to barge in on that. It’s her fucking first time, she doesn’t need another guy joining in for that.

  “Rune...” She glances down at my cock, which immediately reacts to her gaze. “Your lips are saying no, but your cock is saying ‘yes’ to whatever is going on in your head. Must be a pretty good idea.”

  “See?” Kit smirks, the bastard. He knows I won’t be able to resist them both together, especially not when they’re both looking at me like that. “She wants to know too. Now you’ll have to share what you said.”

  I let out a deep sigh, grasping onto every last bit of self-control I have. “I told him to imagine you, caught between us, both of us touching you, fucking you.” I grip the base of my cock, the mental image combined with them laid out in front of me like this enough to test my restraint.

  Then Litha’s emotions flare, the lust in her spiking high, and Kit lets out a groan as he grips her hips hard. “Fuck, her pussy is like a vice. She likes the idea.”

  “Though, maybe fucking you both at once is a little too advanced...” She reaches out to me, wrapping her slim fingers around my cock. “But I’m sure we can come up with something else.”

  I buck into her hand, a moan escaping me, breaking the last of my control. “Fine.” I climb behind her, wrapping one arm around her waist, pulling her hot body against me, the other on Kit’s stomach, my thumb rubbing through the spot his pre-cum left behind. Touching them both, having her in my arms, it feels so good, it feels so right. My cock is caught in the curve of her ass, already slicking her back with my own pre-cum. No matter what plans we may have for some ‘fun’, we won’t be lasting very long, we’re much too wound up.

  Kit meets my eyes, his warm gaze filling my heart, before they flash with a fiendish spark. “Lift her up a little. That way she won’t have to do any of the work, as suits a queen.”

  “Kit,” she squeaks, which makes us laugh.

  But I tighten my arm around her a little and lift her up, her hands moving to my hips, trying to catch a grip. I watch as he tightens his abs, his slim muscles standing out under his pale skin, and then slowly pushes himself up into her, very slowly, so very slowly.

  “Oh. Oh, fuck. Fuck.” Her head falls back against my chest as she lets out a deep moan, fingers digging into my thighs, her nails threatening to break my skin, a good pain.

  Incubi do tend to have the best ideas for how to fuck someone silly. I slide the hand I had on Kit’s stomach up her leg, tipping my finger between her folds and when they simultaneously let out a moan, I know I’m in the right place. Incubi may have great ideas, but dragons have their own tricks.

  Kit starts to move in her faster, each time he pushes up into her, she moves against my cock, giving me friction too. And I keep giving her pleasure, bringing her higher and higher. Our moans, groans, sounds, they all mingle, filling the whole room.

  Then Kit changes the angle of his hips and Litha grips me even harder, nails digging in my skin, fire flashing under her touch. “Fuuuuck. If you keep doing that...”

  “Then, what?” I scrape my teeth over the sensitive spot in her neck, feeling her restraint starting to slip.

  “I’ll come,” she breathes.

  “That’s the idea.” Kit snaps his hips up faster, his whole body tense, a light layer of sweat on him, and he looks so sexy. Way too sexy. I need to touch him too. Now! There is no way the dragon inside me can stay away from him now, not when he looks like that.

  I bend us over slowly, Litha now really caught between us, her soft body between our hard ones. But I don’t stop moving my fingers over her, she’s almost there, and so are we.

  Then Kit’s hand comes up around Litha and wraps one around my cock. “Finally,” he groans. “I thought you’d never get the clue.” His fingers are quick, knowing exactly how to get me to the edge.

  The changed angle makes all the sensations extra intense, our movements limited, but so much more intimate, sexy.

  “Fuck, fuck,” Litha gasps, before her orgasm blasts through her, and with a roar, Kit follows her shortly, his fingers on me erratic.

  Their emotions, their feelings, Kit’s fingers around me, it’s all too much and I come too, spraying my spunk all over Litha’s back. A high so high I’ve never felt it before, so much more intense. A blinding light.

  And as we come down, what I sense most are the feelings we have towards each other, how they’ve grown, the bond even stronger than before.

  I slump over them, trying not to squash Litha between us, giving Kit a quick kiss. “I’m sorry.”

  He looks at me, reaching up and touching my face. “It’s okay. I’m not mad anymore.”

  I gasp as he opens his heart more, something I didn’t even realise was possible, and the feelings inside him are so strong I don’t know if I can hold them right now. I obviously wasn’t the only one who was hiding their emotions. I never realised...

  “Finally.” Litha lets out a sexy laugh and I move, turning us all onto our sides, Litha still caught between us. Then she lets out a light moan as Kit pulls out of her, quickly getting rid of the condom, before turning back to us.

  He reaches up, running his fingers over her cheeks, the look in his eyes so soft, tender. “You’re amazing,” he whispers, giving her a delicate kiss. “So amazing.”

  I’m glad Kit isn’t angry at me anymore, that his frustration is gone, and I’m also really happy with this new connection between us, this deepening bond, but I also know that things are going to be a lot harder before they get easier.

  I’ve always been so scared of the bond I have with the guys, thinking that it wasn’t right. But meeting Litha, having her with us, I know that it’s exactly as it’s supposed to be. This is exactly how we’re supposed to be.

  We’re always going to be hers, all of us, no matter what. Forever.

  “I’m really going to need a tutor.” Litha groans as she puts a piece of rare steak into her mouth. “I can’t do this on my own. I won’t be able to keep up with the classes.”

  “We’ll help. You just need to be caught up with a bit of the terminology.” I reach out and slide her hair behind her ear, it keeps sliding forward, hiding her sweet face.

  “I’ve got four more classes I need to catch up on, and then there is the magic stuff I need to learn... I won’t have time for all of it. Hell, when will I have time to sleep? I’m doomed even before I begin.” She shakes her head, frowning.

  “You’ve got four princes and the daughter of the highest priestess to help you out. I’m pretty sure we can make it work.” Kit winks and Litha smiles a little.

  “I’m a really bad student, I have to warn you.”

  “You seemed like a pretty quick study to me.” Kit winks and a laugh escapes me. Of course, that’s him...

  “I have my strengths.” Litha winks back, smirking and I burst out laughing. Okay, these two really know how to go up against each other... That’s going to be fun.

  “Rune, help me...” Kit turns his best puppy-dog eyes to me, which doesn’t work since he still looks very freshly fucked. “She’s stealing my jokes.”

  “She’s well matched with you.” I grin, and then my phone buzzes, the first break in our little bubble since we got here.

  “See? Even he agrees.” Litha laughs and takes another bite of her steak.

  I check my phone, it’s a message from Finn. ‘Where are you? We can’t find you.’

  Dread flashes through me and I put my fork down, Finn isn’t someone to just message us like this. ‘We’re at the cafe. Why?’ I check the bonds with Bane, Finn and Phoenix, but they don’t seem to be in any danger, though Finn and Phoenix seem bothered by something. Not good, but not alarming.

  ‘It’s best if you come back immediately. Are Kit and Litha with you?’

  ‘Yes. They’re here.’ I glance up and both of them are staring at me, concerned too.

  ‘It’s better if you come back. As soon as possible. Meet me at the house.’
