Daniel stirred when someone shook him, and the noise from the helicopter made him jump.
“We’re here,” Levidon said and helped Daniel out. They left the helicopter and made their way to a lodge. Daniel was cold and tired, but he did register that Aaron followed looking as drunk on sleep as he was.
They entered a foyer, and Levidon turned Daniel to look into his eyes. “Can you hide the gold?”
“They’re golden?”
“Yes.” Levidon turned Daniel’s face a bit toward the lights while Daniel tried to change his eyes to normal green. “Okay, no, keep your eyes closed.”
Daniel did, and Levidon steered Daniel through a door by the sound of it.
“I am Guard Lord Levidon, what Cubi have checked in today?”
“Twenty-two Cubi,” a woman said. “One moment, I’ll call my Dame to assist you.”
“Thank you.”
They waited while the woman made a call. A minute later, a door opened, and another woman introduced herself as Dame Tadin.
“Let me see a list of all in the lodge at this point.”
“Yes, Guard Lord.”
Fingers clacked away on a keyboard, and Levidon steered Daniel around a desk or something, holding him face to chest.
“Oh, thank God. How big is the bed in Lord Caledon’s room?”
Relief flooded Daniel, and he tightened his grip around Levidon who in turn held Daniel tighter, too.
“A group bed, My Lord.”
“Perfect. Show me his room and bring in a single for the Untouchable.”
“Yes, Guard Lord, right away. Please follow me.”
Levidon set them in motion, and Daniel followed, feeling that they walked into doorframes on their way, but Levidon took the hit, steering Daniel clear. Someone knocked on a door, and Daniel recognized the groggy voice yelling, “Come in!”
His stomach fluttered at soon holding Caledon. The door opened, and Levidon met the resistance of another doorframe.
“Open your eyes,” Levidon whispered. Daniel did and saw Marcadon and Caledon sitting in a big bed, naked by the looks of it.
“Cub!” Caledon exclaimed, and Daniel ran to him, tossing himself into his lover’s arms. “Oh, God, you’re safe, you’re safe,” Caledon whispered, clutching Daniel close. The bed dipped, and sloppy kisses sounded from the other half of the bed, but Daniel was too busy being held to take in any more. Holding Caledon brought back the fear on behalf of Seldon, and Daniel broke down sobbing. “What is it, cub? You’re with me now, you’re back. Don’t worry, everything’s going to be okay.”
“They got Seldon.”
Caledon’s caresses froze. “What?”
Daniel sat back, looking from Caledon to Marcadon. “You didn’t hear? The soldiers got Seldon, Elakdon, Roardon, and Geodin.”
Horror washed over Caledon’s features, and he gasped.
“No! Fuck!” Marcadon shouted and got up, but Levidon wrestled him to the bed, holding him still. “Get off!”
“No! I know more than you, and you will calm down!” Levidon said.
Marcadon didn’t look like it was an order he wanted to follow, but he managed a “Yes, Guard Lord,” through gritted teeth.
Something scrambled by the door, and Daniel remembered his eyes might be golden, so he glanced carefully that way seeing the Dame carry in a single bed like it weighed nothing while another woman carried in bedding. Aaron stood in the middle of the room looking abandoned and cold.
“Is everybody fed?” Daniel asked.
“Yes, we finished about…” Caledon took the clock radio and turned it to face him. “Half an hour ago. And you?”
“I’m okay. Come join us, Aaron.”
Aaron perched on the edge of the bed behind Daniel who didn’t want to let go of Caledon.
“The bed has been made as you requested Guard Lord,” the Dame said. “Will you need anything else?”
“No, thank you.”
The Dame and woman left.
“The bed is for you, Aaron,” Daniel said. “Remember, you’re with Cubi now. No one, and I mean no one, is allowed to touch you in a sexual manner. If they do, you shout I am Untouchable at the top of your lungs unless someone is already there to pull whoever off you.”
“Is that really necessary?”
“Yes. And beware of red-eyes in particular. Some are uncontrollable during hunger.”
“Don’t worry about me. I’m never alone,” Marcadon said.
“Go to bed,” Daniel said, trying for a smile. Aaron mimicked it and left the group bed. Daniel quickly shrugged out of his clothes and climbed into bed with Caledon, noticing they were lying on the wet spot. At that point, he didn’t care. He needed to be held. So did Caledon by the feel of it, and they shared lingering kisses and caresses before they each slipped off to sleep.
Hunger awoke Daniel, and he looked around groggily. Everything seemed off, especially the scent in the room. Then it all came back to him, and he wanted to do something. But he had to feed first.
Caledon stirred. “Good morning, cub.”
“Good morning. You hungry?”
Caledon chuckled. “No, I got my ass handed to me by your Fountain on two of my doses. He started having the shivers.”
“Meaning? Cubi cold?” Wow, that infected a Cubus way faster than Daniel would have thought, but then again, Marcadon was dosed pretty heavily all day.
“I’m hungry,” Marcadon growled.
Levidon raised his head with a serious case of bedhead. He smiled at Daniel. “So am I.”
“Have at it.” Caledon pulled the covers aside. “I’ll grab a shower in the meantime.”
“No, wait for me. Please?” Daniel asked, needing some intimacy with a lover.
Caledon stroked Daniel’s cheek and smiled. “Okay.”
Daniel looked at Marcadon and Levidon. “How about we sandwich him?” he asked Levidon.
Marcadon looked at Daniel wide-eyed. Then like Daniel had just made his day. “Oh, I’m up for that. Come on.” Marcadon shuffled around.
“Yeah, no, you need to clean out first,” Levidon said.
“We both do.” Daniel hopped out of bed, making it to the toilet first. Why he had expected Marcadon to wait his turn, he didn’t know, but Daniel had just lubed up the nozzle when Marcadon entered and turned on the water in the shower, making Daniel jump away to not get hit by the first cold water in the hose.
Marcadon looked expectantly at Daniel and the nozzle. “Right, new Cubus, shy Cubus.” Marcadon turned his back.
Daniel shook his head in amazement. Like that was enough. But he was too hungry, and the sight of Marcadon’s ass made Daniel’s hunger boner jump. So he shoved the nuzzle up his own ass and pressed the button. He stayed in there while he waited, hoping that meant Marcadon would still be in the shower when Daniel needed to empty out in the toilet.
“Come on!” Marcadon finally growled.
Daniel suppressed the urge to pull a face at the broad back and stepped out, gingerly. He waited and waited while listening to Marcadon showering. Finally, he sat and blushed at the sounds his body made. And the scent. That was so not sexy. How could Marcadon think Daniel sexy after listening to that?
Daniel heard the swirl of the machine and groaned at discovering he’d need another round with it.
Daniel flushed and waited for Marcadon to exit, hoping he’d soon be left alone to finish. Marcadon exited the shower, and Daniel ducked in, waiting for Marcadon to finish. He hoped that this side of being a Cubus would soon be as normal as walking around the house butt ass naked because that wasn’t a problem anymore. He then wondered when he’d stop needing food because his eyes changed quickly.
Again, the urge to do something about his captured people and the King returned, but he couldn’t before he’d fed. That helped him get determined again, and he shoved the nozzle up his ass again and waited for Marcadon.
“Second time around, you can empty in the drain in there, just so you know,” Marc
adon said.
“Yeah, right, you done, soon?”
“Yeah, now.”
They switched again, and Marcadon left the bathroom before Daniel had finished up. Cool, a moment alone. Daniel rinsed off and joined the others in bed. Aaron was awake, and Caledon sat in the foot end of his bed, naked, and chatted.
Daniel hopped into bed with Marcadon and Levidon who already had two fingers buried in Marcadon’s ass while they kissed and whispered what looked like intimate secrets to each other. Daniel almost didn’t want to interrupt, but feeding and filling his Fountain was necessary.
Being two to suck them out of him, one being a very strong Lord, Daniel figured he could go higher than four. He’d release the four and dose him through his ass, too.
Marcadon turned away from Levidon to pull Daniel closer. He held out his hand, and Levidon gave the lube two pumps. Marcadon’s dark red eyes focused on Daniel’s ass, so he turned his back to the hungry Fountain and offered it up, groaning in relief when a slick finger pushed inside. Another joined a moment later, and Daniel gasped, willing his muscle to relax.
A loud groan escaped Marcadon, and Daniel looked over his shoulder to see Levidon had penetrated Marcadon.
“There, My Prince, that should keep him occupied to slow down.”
Daniel smiled, thankful at the Lord’s foresight. Marcadon did indeed slow down, and he kissed and nibbled at Daniel’s ass and fondled him while gently introducing a third finger.
Certain he was open enough to take Marcadon’s fat cock, Daniel turned to lie on his back and spread his legs. In unison, Marcadon and Levidon shuffled closer, and Levidon stayed seated inside Marcadon while he penetrated Daniel. Once he was inside, Daniel leaned to the side to have gravity aid the oral dose. Marcadon tilted with him and locked his lips to Daniel’s. Two doses in, Marcadon shivered and groaned, and Levidon began a slow pump in and out. Four doses in, and Marcadon joined in more desperately and uncoordinated.
Daniel grinned, loving it. The uncoordinated desperation was way more fun to feed from than the dedicated feeder, but he could certainly appreciate those fucks, too, and he’d certainly enjoyed the focused feeding with Levidon earlier that night. Like Elakdon had explained, Royals were not just diverse in whom they could feed from—their appetite was even more diverse as it often paired well with the one or ones they fed from.
Marcadon pulled Daniel closer and whimpered. It turned to deep groans once Levidon’s pace picked up, and Daniel, being at the bottom of the pile, took the end of the wave of thrusts.
Levidon leaned over and whispered in Marcadon’s ear. “Mmm, I missed your ass Marca.”
“It missed your cock, too. Your big. Fat. Juicy. Cock,” Marcadon teased, each word punctuated by a sharp thrust that sent ripples of pleasure all the way through to Daniel. “Come on, show me you miss it.”
“Easy, cub, remember you’re buried in the Prince’s ass. Focus on him, too.” Levidon winked at Daniel who didn’t feel like he had anything to complain about other than not being dosed, and he knew he still needed them.
“Dose me, Levidon,” Daniel said, gasping when Marcadon decided that too little was happening and snapped his hips.
Levidon laughed and leaned heavily on Marcadon. Daniel, the smaller of the three, couldn’t reach Levidon’s mouth over the broad shoulder of Marcadon, but the Lord elongated his tongue and released the dose, and most of it made it into Daniel’s mouth. Lust and desperation clouded Daniel’s mind.
“Oh fuck! Marca, fuck me! Now, oh God! More!”
Levidon laughed triumphantly. “He sounds like you, cub. Give it to him.”
Marcadon grunted and shoved into Daniel more determined, and Daniel sailed away in rapidly building pleasure. The first orgasm moved in, and by the sound of it, he wasn’t the only one to tip over soon.
“Oh, fuck!” Marcadon groaned in Daniel’s ear and sucked his earlobe into his mouth. Daniel tipped over the edge and grabbed a tight hold of Marcadon as he came, feeling Marca following.
“Oh, so hot, so hot!” Levidon said, snapping his hips in short and powerful thrusts.
Marcadon shuddered and pushed himself up on shaky arms. “More, oh yeah, more, more.”
“Let me turn over,” Daniel said.
Levidon pulled Marcadon up and back, ignoring the desperate whines. Marcadon shoved back onto Levidon’s cock, his eyes closed and his head leaned back on Levidon’s shoulder.
Daniel got onto his knees and held onto the headboard, noticing it was broken when a splinter stung his hand. But then Marcadon’s cock found its way back inside, and still riding the powerful dose of the Guard Lord, Daniel forgot all about his hand and shoved back to make Marcadon’s pleasure rise. The feeding energy danced across his skin and pooled easily in his spine, and Daniel moaned with abandon and shoved back to get more, impaling himself harder and harder. Levidon came, roaring, and Marcadon shuddered against Daniel. How many orgasms was that? Daniel was definitely still under the Guard Lord’s doses’ influence, so he dosed Marcadon through his anal gland.
“Oh, fuck!” Marcadon groaned, grabbed Daniel’s hips hard, and set a brutal pace. Daniel’s orgasm washed over him, and he surfaced to the still brutal pace, but that didn’t matter, he still wanted more. His world became about feeding, and he recognized the feeling from when he and Elakdon had ended in a seemingly never-ending cycle of doses.
“Oh shit, don’t dose him again, My Prince, his ass can’t take more.”
“Mine can!” Daniel gritted out and held onto the headboard.
“Yeah?” Marcadon asked.
“Yeah!”
Marcadon growled and snapped his hips harder. “Oh, fuck, here we go,” Marcadon gasped and quaked as another orgasm claimed him. But Daniel chose to listen to the Guard Lord and kept another dose to himself.
“Tip me over, Marca, oh God, tip me over!” Daniel pleaded.
Marcadon snapped his hips with more determination, and Daniel felt his orgasm grow closer. Someone grabbed his dick, and he looked down to find Levidon’s open mouth closing in on his cock. Once that warm mouth descended on him, the race was over. Daniel came, bucking and screaming, and finally collapsed in Marcadon’s arms to be held upright.
Chuckling, Marcadon sat back and cradled Daniel, both heaving for air while Levidon leisurely licked Daniel’s spent cock. Marcadon’s slipped out of Daniel, and gravity made everything he’d deposited in there spill out of him, too.
“Smells like you definitely need that shower now,” Caledon said.
Daniel chuckled. “Yeah, when my limbs function again.”
Marcadon tipped over, and they landed on the bed on their sides, Daniel still cradled in his arms. “Can’t believe you dosed me again.”
“Had to make up for the one we missed.”
Marcadon merely chuckled and disentangled himself.
Caledon stood next to the bed, grinning at Daniel. “Come on, let’s get you showered.”
Daniel took his hand and followed into the shower. He needed closeness and soft caresses and kisses now, and he certainly got it. He and Caledon made out in an unhurried pace while washing each other. But then the water got cold.
“Oh, hell no,” Caledon growled and shivered. “The Guard Lord is not going to thank us for that.”
Daniel snickered and stepped out, handing Caledon a towel.
“Do you have the ointment? Or does Marcadon?” Caledon asked.
“I don’t know.”
“I’ll go ask.”
Daniel watched his lover leave the bathroom, and his heart squeezed at having him with him. Now they had to go figure out how to get their third lover back.
Chapter Twenty-Two
T he cells were quiet and sterile with nothing to do but lounge around on the thin and cold mattresses. Elakdon needed a lot of feeding, and Seldon got dosed heavily again. The Changeling stayed quiet mostly, but his first hunger had definitely set in, and he scratched at himself and shivered.
“Has he been classified?” Seldon a
sked.
“Yes, by me. When I turned him.”
Seldon looked at the King who looked particularly pleased with himself. “Not exactly a pretty addition to our people.”
“No, he’s kinda unattractive, isn’t he. What do you think, darling?” Elakdon looked through the bars at Geodin who stood and looked at the Changeling.
“I’d have to be starved for days to jump that.”
Elakdon chuckled and looked at Seldon. “He’s mine, by the way.”
Seldon looked at the King, puzzled. “How do you mean?”
Elakdon leaned closer and spoke almost in a whisper. “The Cubus who turns a human is the deciding factor of which Kingdom he belongs to. I’ll punish him for what he did to you, and then I’ll gift him to Beaudon. I want to see what the young Prince is made of once he’s told what happened to you, but you’re of course not allowed to tell him about my ulterior motives.”
“Does he need to know what happened to me?” Seldon whispered back. “He’ll just be hurt by it.”
“I know, but it’s important none the less. Never keep facts from him, Seldon, not even to spare him. He can’t afford such thoughtfulness if he’s to rise as King of your nation.”
Seldon nodded, thinking. However badly Daniel did with change, Seldon also knew there was truth to what the King said. “What do we do when the soldiers come back?”
“Well, hopefully, our soldiers have located us by now.”
Seldon remembered the decoys having trackers on them. Did the King?
“In the meantime,” Elakdon said, sitting back. “Please demonstrate to me what has earned you the reputation of being a fair Cubus.” The King pointed to the shivering Changeling. Oh shit, the King wanted him to feed the Changeling and be fair about it after the torturous pain he’d put Seldon through?
“You…are you ordering me to feed him?”
Even Geodin looked on with concern.
“Not if you don’t want to.” Elakdon looked at the Changeling, and Seldon didn’t like that look in his eyes. He’d seen it before when he tested Daniel.
“Yes, Nol,” Seldon turned to look at the Changeling, and thoughts went through his head so fast he barely managed to get a complete one before the next took over. Finally, he stood and strode to the Changeling who backed away, shivering more intensely.
