tutor assigned until it’s safe for him to go to school.”
Drew considered their words for a few moments, and then said,
“All right. That sounds good. Now, do you have a bathroom around here? I really need to clean up and go check on him.”
Valerius chuckled and directed the human to the bathroom adjoining his bedchamber. As they walked inside, Valerius admired Drew’s naked body unashamedly. Even with everything that seemed to stand in their way, Valerius still wanted Drew. He wanted both his mates, and he was willing to give away his position as a Judiciary for it.
Trent joined them and closed the bathroom door behind him.
“How about we all take a quick shower together?”
Drew shook his head. “I really have to go see if Paulie’s all right.
This is all so new to him. I’ve dragged him into something very dangerous, and it will only get weirder from now on.”
In spite of Drew’s words, Valerius could tell his mate felt tempted. He smelled it all around Drew and saw it in the human’s fidgety motions. Nevertheless, his mate didn’t give up on his decision.
Valerius acknowledged Drew’s need to see Paulie, and he made a mental note to have a chat with the young human as well. If they were going to try to make it work, Paulie would be family, after all.
Since he didn’t know where exactly Drew’s clothing ended up, Valerius chose one of his own outfits and set it out for Drew. It would be loose on Drew’s more slender frame, but his mate couldn’t exactly wander around naked through the penthouse.
Drew came out of the bathroom and stole a look at the clothes.
“Thanks.”
“No problem,” Valerius replied as his lover dressed. “Go talk to your son.”
Trent intercepted Drew just before the other man left the room.
Under Valerius’s very eyes, he pulled Drew into his arms and pressed his lips to the human’s in a devastating kiss. Valerius’s wolf demanded that he join in on the action, but he kept it in check. Such activities would have to wait.
The kiss between Drew and Trent broke. “Come back soon,”
Trent whispered against the human’s lips. “We’ll be waiting.”
Drew wordlessly nodded, looking dazed, then rushed out. As one of Valerius’s mates left the room, the other grinned at him. “We do have a chance.”
For once, Valerius found that, perhaps, he could trust his future to someone else.
Chapter Five
Drew hastened out of the room, feeling dizzy and blown away. He could still taste Trent’s kiss on his lips and feel Val’s cock inside him.
God, what was he doing? How could he jump in bed with two men he barely knew?
His heart thundered, and he took a few moments to calm down and regain composure. It didn’t help that his body begged to be close to the two men again. As for his heart, it seemed divided between his mates and his son. That had never happened before. Drew never let anyone or anything be more important than his son, especially not since he’d moved to Tennington. It bothered him that these strangers could shake his resolve with such ease.
Then again, Trent and Val weren’t strangers, not really. Drew felt like he’d known them forever, like he could see in their hearts and they could see into his. The pain he’d heard in Val’s voice when the other man spoke about his dead sibling still tore Drew apart. He’d also felt the self-disgust Val experienced at his own job and duty, as well as Trent’s affection for his family and his growing feelings for both Val and Drew. How could this be?
Shaking himself, Drew made his way through the corridor and headed in the general direction of the foyer. Since he couldn’t exactly go look in every room of the huge penthouse, he needed to find the efficient Thom and figure out where Dan and Paulie had been taken.
Then, he’d have to change and at last, go talk to his son.
As it turned out, Thom’s presence proved to be unnecessary.
