Geodin smiled, caressed Daniel’s cheek, and leaned in to give him a chaste kiss. “It’s beautiful. I will get the information for the hospital wing and go inform them immediately.”
“Thank you.”
She left, and Caledon came to stand next to Daniel.
“Any orders for me, My King?”
“I feel ill-equipped to deal with this. And watching Elakdon lead a battle certainly proves I’m young and inexperienced.”
“There’s nothing wrong with being both. He was too once.”
“I know. But I want to grow into a King as competent as he is, and I’d rather learn from a wise Ilkil-Nol than give orders I don’t have the insight to give.”
“Oh, cub.” Caledon pulled Daniel in for a hug and kissed his forehead. “Let’s make a list then. Sometimes, having it made visual helps.”
Caledon took Daniel to a table and pushed a pad and pencil to him. “Remember what you have already set in motion, then we break it down.”
Daniel picked up the pencil and made notes of everything, his thoughts returning to how to honor those who fell to secure the future of the Great House of Beaudon.
Chapter Twenty-six
Seldon hurried back to the apartment, wondering if he was too late to feed on his lovers. But Daniel had given him an important task, and he wasn’t about to hurry it through to be with them. Daniel had given him a task within his field of expertise, and Seldon found a great deal of professional satisfaction and pride in doing it right.
He’d wondered what Daniel saw in him to be the Lokil-Nol. Caledon should be it. Or at least someone like Caledon. Someone as diplomatic and characteristic. Someone who could walk into a room and call respect onto his person. Seldon could do that, too, and he felt a great deal of satisfaction at the fact, yet the feel of the room was different when he or Caledon showed up. And if they showed up together, Caledon was the one who was supposed to be the authority—not because of his eye color but because of the strong, capable, and all-encompassing nature of him.
Seldon had no problem with that because that was how he saw his Lord lover, too. He even called for him to hurry down and help him when his own skills outside training was needed. He felt sure that if they walked into a training situation, Caledon wouldn’t be the one expected to be hands-on, and Seldon had always prided himself on being capable about being hands-on regardless of the level it was needed on.
It took a few hours to carry out Daniel’s order, and Seldon was pretty hungry when he returned to their trio’s bedroom. But he knew Daniel needed something slow and loving. He was at times a very aggressive person, but Seldon knew it was the expectations to his station that made Daniel press himself. Tonight, having given the orders he did, Daniel was going to need a slow, loving, and smooth ride on the pleasure train that would take his thoughts far from where his mind was at during the moment. Seldon was in the mood for the opposite. He wanted the hard and fast fuck that would overwhelm everything to a point where he lost himself in the rhythm of his hips, the sound of skin slapping against skin, and the cries of ecstasy he could coax from the body he was manipulating to heights of pleasure that left a body quaking and gasping in his arms.
Seldon entered the apartment and took off his shoes, placing them on the rack. Alex came into the hall, naked, and Seldon stopped to gaze upon the breeder he’d least of all expected to ever return to them. Alex smiled, but it looked tense.
“What is it?” Seldon asked, worried about what Alex had witnessed of Daniel’s mental state.
“Our King is soaking in a tub. He’s sad.”
Our King. Not the words he’d ever expected to hear.
“He needs a lover’s gentle touches.”
Alex smiled. “And I know you can provide, My Lord.”
“I need something else.” Seldon watched Alex carefully, not wanting to risk pushing the young man further after what Daniel had shared about Alex’s needs to reinvent himself within the Cubi people. Alex had been his steady breeder, and Seldon cared for him. He wasn’t in love with him, but he’d take on ten Elias’ to keep him safe.
“What do you need, My Lord?”
“Your neediness when dosed, but I hold huge amounts of respect for you, and I accept a no.”
A careful smile spread. “Tend to your lover, and I will feed you afterward. I know the difference.”
Seldon had no doubt that Alex knew the difference, but he was pretty sure that the human didn’t understand it. He cupped Alex’s face, smiling. “Thank you.” Seldon then pulled Alex in for a hug. “I’m really glad you weren’t hurt.” Alex hugged Seldon back, and Seldon realized that he’d probably phrased that badly since Alex’s friend was hurt and in the hospital. “How’s your friend?”
“I went to see him today. Elakdon fed him, and the doctor said his wounds are healing nicely, but he’s far from able to feed properly.”
“I’ll feed him, too,” Seldon promised, stroking Alex’s back.
“Thank you.” Alex tightened his grip around Seldon. “Go help Daniel. I’ll be ready for you afterward.”
“Thank you.” Seldon gave Alex a smile and headed to the bedroom. Caledon sprawled with a book, naked and beautiful. He glanced up, flashing a worried smile, so Seldon went to perch on the edge of the bed. He stroked Caledon’s chest lovingly. “Where’s our boy?”
“Soaking in the tub. He needed to be alone with his thoughts.” Caledon sat up and expertly located a nipple through the fabric of Seldon’s shirt, making Seldon smile at the appreciative look on his lover’s face.
“Take your clothes off and come to bed,” Caledon whispered, his gaze not leaving the circles his fingers made to tease Seldon’s nipples.
An idea popped into Seldon’s head, and it meant he had to get his clothes off, so he did, all the while smiling at the hungry look in Caledon’s eyes. Once naked, Seldon climbed over Caledon and snuggled up next to him. Seldon thought he’d been close to Caledon long enough to determine what kind of hunger was to be taken care of, and Caledon needed slow and sweet, too.
Maybe because it wasn’t just hunger now that the three of them had finally found their places in their trio.
To accommodate his lover, Seldon scooted down to put his head on Caledon’s chest, and the content sigh made Seldon’s heart swell. Caledon settled back with his book, gently running his fingers through Seldon’s hair, reminding him he needed a haircut.
“What are you reading?”
“The one my finger stopped at.”
Seldon chuckled, enjoying the feel of Caledon’s treasure trail under his fingers. “Any good?”
“It has its moments.”
“Is this one of them?”
“Not really, but I’m stubborn like that.”
Seldon laughed louder, turning his head to look at Caledon. He’d just have to see if he could make Caledon drop the book. Giving his nipples some TLC was probably his best shot, so he leaned closer to run his tongue around the closest one.
A groan escaped Caledon, but the book was still in his hand. From what Seldon could see from his position, Caledon was still reading, so he upped his efforts and sucked gently.
A louder moan escaped.
“Oh, that looks delicious.” Apparently, Daniel had returned from his bath. “Scoot in, make room for me on the other side.”
Seldon shimmied over, Caledon followed, and Daniel found his position mirroring Seldon. The boy grinned at him before descending on Caledon’s other nipple. Joint effort, they had Caledon writhing and panting within minutes.
“Tell me,” Seldon whispered, giving another flick. “What are you two in the mood for?”
“I just want to lose myself in pleasure.” Daniel sucked Caledon’s nipple into his mouth, making Caledon gasp and buck. “Like now.”
“I’m in complete agreement with the cub,” Caledon whispered, clearly already well on his way to lose himself in what was being done to his body.
“I have a great idea, then.” Seldon sat up and motioned for D
aniel to climb to his side of Caledon. “Lie down here.”
Daniel did, and Seldon pulled at Caledon’s hip to have him scoot up close behind Daniel. Seldon then moved lower so that he could suck Daniel’s cock.
“Oh, I see what you’re doing,” Caledon said, scooting down, too. Not exactly what Seldon had in mind, but it would work, too. Caledon buried his face in Daniel’s ass, and the boy groaned, then sucked in a breath when Seldon took him into his mouth. The boy wanted to be overloaded with pleasure? Seldon’s mouth on his cock and Caledon’s skilled tongue in his ass were bound to do just that.
“Oh, God, that’s just what I need,” Daniel whispered, the last word ending in a long moan. He ran his hands through Seldon’s hair, pushing a bit on the back of Seldon’s head, and he got the hint, taking Daniel deeper on every pass. Daniel suddenly grabbed the back of Seldon’s head, a strangled groan escaping him. A delicious taste spread in Seldon’s mouth, and he groaned, sucking harder and swallowing. Warmth and lust spread in him, and Daniel’s dose was getting seriously strong, but not enough to take away Seldon’s self-control.
By the sound of it, Caledon was enjoying the same experience as Seldon, and their enthusiasm made Daniel moan and quake.
The dose spurred the need to have his mouth filled with Daniel’s semen, and it became his main objective. Apparently, Caledon’s objective changed a bit because he climbed up to spoon Daniel and steered his cock inside.
Seldon found his rhythm to match the slow pump of Caledon’s hips, and Daniel sounded like it was exactly the pace and onslaught of pleasure he’d hoped to receive. But Seldon was also in a position to please both his lovers, so he pulled off Daniel long enough to slick his fingers with spit before introducing one into Caledon’s ass.
Caledon moaned and tucked his leg up to give Seldon room, and the symphony of pleasure that rolled from his lovers’ mouths pushed Seldon to the very edge. He tried to keep his finger still so that Caledon would impale himself when moving back out of Daniel. The two kept a slow pace, and Seldon’s raging cock screamed for attention, but he’d let Alex help with his needs afterward. But he felt like he needed Daniel to okay it, just to be sure, considering he was leaving bed after sex with them to get more.
Until then, he was going to worship the cock in his mouth, and stimulate the ass riding his finger. The best part about slow building pleasure was that it could take hours. The worst thing about slow building pleasure was when one party was in the mood for something entirely different. But his boy needed this, and Seldon was going to make sure he felt supported and cherished.
Ignoring his own raging cock, Seldon focused on coaxing moans from his lovers, and when Daniel felt too close, he eased up. He had no control over what Caledon did or focused on, but he felt pretty sure the Lord was in complete control back there and even of his own pleasure since he hadn’t ground back for more stimuli.
By the sound of it, Daniel was losing himself, and the smile that spread on Seldon’s lips ruined the vacuum he’d created. No sooner had Daniel’s cock popped from his mouth before the boy grabbed the back of his head, panting and begging.
“Oh, yeah, let’s give our hungry cub a good one,” Caledon grunted, increasing his pace. Seldon responded by wiggling the finger he’d buried in Caledon’s ass, which earned him a loud groan. Again, Seldon went all-in sucking cock, loving the feel of Daniel’s hips thrusting ever so slightly. Caledon’s hand was locked around a hipbone, preventing Daniel from thrusting at an odd rhythm to his own still slow and measured pace, and it helped Seldon stay on Daniel’s now leaking cock.
The taste of him made Seldon groan and his dick jump. Caledon cried out, probably from Seldon’s enthusiasm which translated into more finger wiggling.
Daniel moaned with abandon, a string of mostly incoherent words spilling from his mouth. Caledon whispered in a loving tone, and Seldon felt at peace about the three of them and that Daniel had finally grown into the understanding of how more than two people could love each other without there having to be a contest about who was loved the most.
Daniel’s breath grew shallow, and every muscle in his body quivered. So close, and Seldon held himself in check as he kept pleasuring his boy in the measured tempo.
Finally, Daniel cried out, and both Caledon and Seldon fucked him through it. Judging by the amount of semen Daniel shot into Seldon’s mouth, the boy came hard.
“Seldon, please…more,” Caledon said, holding still and lodged deep in Daniel’s ass.
Seldon kept licking gently at Daniel’s cock while he worked Caledon’s ass to get to that good spot. He could definitely hear and feel when he found it because Caledon moaned loudly, and his body quaked as he kept himself still and not moving in and out of Daniel.
An idea came to Seldon, and he quickly shifted his position to be able to rim Caledon, shoving his long Cubi tongue in to massage the sensitive spot.
“Oh, God, Allon, that’s it, that’s it, that—” Caledon tensed, then convulsed while Daniel lovingly murmured sexy stuff. Once spent, Caledon heaved for air, a twitch running through his body here and there.
Seldon sat up, smiling at the two spent men.
“You look very proud of yourself,” Caledon commented.
“He does, doesn’t he,” Daniel said, grinning.
“Why wouldn’t I be. Such lovely orgasms I helped bring you to.”
Daniel smiled, motioning for Seldon to lie down next to him. Seldon snuggled in, his head on Daniel’s arm and his legs intertwined with both Daniel’s and Caledon’s.
Daniel reached down and grabbed Seldon’s still rock-hard cock, stroking it. “Now…what are you in the mood for?”
“Hard, fast, and sweaty.”
Caledon groaned. “Warned you,” he mumbled in Daniel’s ear.
“You don’t have to feed me,” Seldon said.
“You feel hungry,” Daniel said, squeezing Seldon’s cock, making him moan.
“Yeah, but just because I need to feed differently after intense experiences doesn’t mean you have to help me with it. I’m picky when having to unwind.” Seldon scooted up so that he could look at both of them. “But I needed this slow loving, too.”
Daniel smiled and caressed Seldon’s cheek. “Hard and fast, huh?”
“Yeah. Alex is still up.”
“I gave him the right to choose.”
“I know. I asked, and he said yes.”
Daniel looked confused. “Before you joined us?”
Oh, shit. Had Seldon misjudged how far Daniel had come? “I ran into him when I arrived home.”
“So you’re in the mood for him?”
“Now that I’m tanked up on love from you two, then yeah. I need to let off steam, and I know he can take it and love it when dosed.”
“I love it, too,” Daniel said.
“I know, but you’re not in the mood for that kind of feeding, are you?”
Daniel shook his head, and Seldon wondered whether what he’d at first thought was a hint of the old jealousy was instead Daniel feeling like he was neglecting Seldon’s needs. But Daniel had been the one to suggest that Seldon took time to help Alex explore so the jealousy part could only be relevant if Daniel’s emotional state after the battle meant he needed Seldon’s undivided attention.
“When did you last feed on a human?” Caledon asked.
Seldon thought back, an involuntary shudder running through him as the soldier who raped him came to mind. But that wasn’t feeding, and that wasn’t the last. “The EMT guy who drove me here.”
“You should prioritize humans for a while, then.”
Daniel turned in Caledon’s arms, looking up at him, puzzled.
“I see.” Caledon smiled and kissed Daniel’s forehead. “I think our young King is neglecting to take the hormones into a factor. They were mentioned in the book I gave you.”
Daniel looked off in thought. “Then what do I feed on?”
“The main difference between all of us and Royals is that we can’t produce the
hormone we need from the humans. That’s the mutation. That’s what we feed on. Royals don’t need that hormone directly, you’re a mutation in your own right, and you feed on the hormone we make from the hormones we get from humans. That’s why you can’t feed on humans, but we must.”
“So Cubi can’t just feed on lower energies or higher doses?”
“No, if that was the case we could be even more isolated.”
“How often do you need those hormones?”
“That depends on our age. Red-eyes need a lot, and old Lord like myself can go a month.”
“And Marca?” Daniel asked. “He only feeds on my doses, right?”
“No, I’m sure he and Levi find a breeder to have fun with,” Seldon said. “The Guard Lords and Ladies screen them for exposure to other doses, though. Doses are like all dessert and no steak and veggies.”
Daniel chuckled. “I love how you manage to explain everything to me in terms of human feeding patterns.”
“And you’re my favorite dessert.”
Daniel pulled Seldon down for a kiss. “Go get those hormones.”
Seldon pulled back to look at his beautiful smiling boy. It wasn’t jealousy. Maybe it had been the feeling of not taking care of Seldon. Daniel had been pretty attentive after the rape, and it warmed Seldon’s heart, but apparently, it was because he hadn’t felt that hormone hunger. He never would, and Seldon was happy about that.
“Come back to bed, okay?”
“I will, don’t worry.” Seldon kissed them both and shuffled out of bed, his still hard and hungry cock pointing the way.
Chapter Twenty-seven
While waiting for Seldon to take care of Daniel, Alex used the bathroom to prepare himself. His stomach fluttered from what felt like nerves, yet when he examined the feeling, it wasn’t nerves as much as it was excitement. But excitement for what? To get dosed and fucked again? Or because it was with someone familiar? With someone he knew cared?
