a week, Anton, but the bond between us is strong. Instinctive, almost. I imagine it’s the wolf in me that understands this. The human woman certainly couldn’t figure it out, though I felt a bond with Stefan the very first night we met, even before I’d seen his face.” She smiled and tilted her head toward her lover. “By the way, have I told you what a handsome face it is?”
His soft chuckle warmed the atmosphere even more. “If anyone had told me I would be aroused by the sight of two men making love, and that’s exactly what you two have done, for all the dominance and power plays, I would have denied it. If anyone had even suggested I would want to be part of that love, I would have thought they were crazy. I was so wrong.”
She sighed and shook her head, her heart almost bursting with the overwhelming emotions, hers and theirs. “I love both of you. I realize I need both of you. The time may come, as our pack increases, that I will want another mate as well. As might you. Whether it’s the wolf in me or just who I am, I realize this is my new reality. I hope you can accept it… accept me.”
Stefan set his empty glass down, stood up and leaned over Xandi. “I love you,” he said, kissing her very gently on the lips. He turned then to Anton and ran his palm in a caressing stroke from the wizard’s brow, along the smooth fall of his hair, to grasp his shoulder. “I love you as well. Both of you, in equal measure, but it’s been a long day for me, and I imagine the two of you have much to…” He paused and winked at Xandi, “… discuss. Good night. I’ll see you in the morning, if not before.” Without any sign of self-consciousness, Stefan leaned over and kissed Anton on the mouth, gave him a last squeeze on his shoulder, and left the room.
Anton’s expression was one of pure disbelief when he looked up and stared at Xandi. She almost laughed out loud, but instead, she took one last sip of her cognac and reached for Anton. “For the good of the pack?” she asked, taking his hand. “That was the reason you gave me for polyandrous relationships within a wolven pack. It’s more than that, Anton. I do love you. You have made it possible for me -- and Stefan -- to finally know our true natures. You have given us our lives. That is a gift without price.”
Anton stood up, his lithe body moving with the grace of a dancer. He stared intently at Xandi, his amber eyes glowing with desire, the corner of his mouth tilted up in a slight smile. “I feel as if I’ve been caught at my own game.”
He shook his head as he placed both hands on Xandi’s shoulders. “It’s not a game though, Alexandria. Do you mean what you say? Your scent is driving me wild. Thank God Stefan stopped me tonight or I would have raped you without any thought to your humanity, to your own needs and desires. Right now, if Stefan and I hadn’t exhausted ourselves fuc… making love, I’d be ripping this robe from your shoulders and driving into you whether you wanted me or not.”
“Ah, but I do want you.” Xandi wrapped her arms around Anton’s neck and stood on her toes to kiss him. “Only I want you on my terms, in my way… at least this first time. I take my role as the Alpha female quite seriously.” She tested the seam of his full lips with the tip of her tongue, plunging inside when he parted for her. His arms tightened around her back and she felt the huge bulge of his cock pressing against her belly.
This was not Stefan, yet the need she felt, the desire for Anton, was almost identical. She dipped her shoulder so that he could tug her robe off of her, and when she was completely nude, she practically posed before him, her body offering the kind of lush invitation she knew he needed.
Anton felt as if he’d entered some sort of dream state. For five long years he had thought only of Stefan, of the torment the young magician suffered because of his unwillingness to learn, of the almost visceral sexual
