Da Ankora, surprisingly didn’t come over to gloat like Blue thought he was. He came over because of me. He was worried I would get overwhelmed by my second being, which wasn’t fully awake. I haven’t been able to change into my wolf form despite how many times I tried that. My mates assumed it had something to do with my witch blood, but Da Ankora wasn’t convinced. He was afraid my powers might spiral out of control if I didn’t harness them, something he didn’t even know how we would go about it.
Before leaving, he promised to check on me every chance he got, but not without reminding me to be careful, and not to stress myself because of the baby in my womb.
Throughout his visit, Blue kept his gaze averted, still thinking Da Ankora would remind them of their vows never to return to their kingdom, but he didn’t do that. Either he knew Blue expected that from him or he wanted to toy with him. For either reason, he mentioned nothing until he left.
“What should we do tonight?” I smiled at my mates, walking out of the bathroom, in just my lingerie and a robe to conceal it. I had Chris take Chrysolite – Didn’t know their names sounded so alike until I mentioned them together. Little wonder Chris was so ecstatic when I named my first daughter – to her room. My baby is going to spend the night away from Mama because Mama has something to do. I haven’t had enough private time with my mates because of my darling, which was why I asked Chris to take her.
Blue patted the space next to him, smiling. “Fred suggested we watch a movie. I know you want to, don’t you?” He lifted a brow, grinning with Fred, who was nodding like a lizard – don’t tell him I made such a comparison.
“I heard it,” his tone was dry, earning him a chuckle from Blue, who instantly shut up when he sent a glare his way.
Blue made a motion of zipping his lips, but we knew he was dying of laughter. His face was so red, it made me burst into laughter, further infuriating Fred, who looked like he was just a few seconds from kicking us out of the room. Swallowing my laughter, I walked over to the bed and sat between them.
“So?” I smiled shyly, thinking they could tell what was going through my mind, but they didn’t seem like they could. It was either they weren’t paying attention to my thoughts or were pretending not to. “Which movie are we watching?”
“How to train your dragon,” Blue said without missing a beat, causing me to lift my brows at that.
“Are you fucking pulling my legs?” I glared, wondering if he was toying with me because there was no way in freaking hell he would actually play a cartoon.
Do I look like I was dressed to watch a cartoon? If I actually wanted to watch that with them, I wouldn’t have urged Chrys to take Chrysolite. Hell, I would have asked Chris to join us.
“Why bring the TV from the house to this place when you know you aren’t using it for something good?” I glared, not in the mood for any plays. I just wanted some time with them, doing adult stuff, not to watch a cartoon. Who does that?
“Didn’t you say you love watching cartoons?” Fred looked confused, while I should be the one with a perplexed expression. I know I told them once that I love animations, but that didn’t mean I wanted to watch one now. What happened to adult movies? I wouldn’t have even minded porn at the moment. Something to get us in the mood, not like I needed any urging. I know what I want.
“I know I like cartoons, but not this one.” Folding my arms, I pouted. “Can’t we watch something else?” I tried to sound cheerful when I was far from feeling that.
“Well.” Fred rubbed the back of his neck, nervously gulping as he looked towards his brother. “I’m afraid this is the only one we got.”
“What?!”
“Fred said we didn’t need to get anything else, so I only brought this. It’s wonderful, right?”
“Yeah. Excellent.” Nodding, I tried to relax, telling myself I would have more than enough chance to get them to do what I wanted. Even though we are watching cartoons, you can be in the mood, right? Like mood, mood?
“I thought so.”
As we snuggled to watch the movie, I pretended to be focused on it when I wasn’t. I’d be lying if I said that I was paying any attention to the movie. I actually have no recollection of what it was about or any scenes that happened, for that matter. My mind couldn’t focus on anything that I saw on the screen because I kept getting distracted by the fact that I was sitting in the room alone with my mates, men I intended to jump their bones that night. That was if I got the opportunity to do so.
The room felt hot to me, and I knew I was the only one feeling that. The others seemed to be engrossed in watching Hiccup, being well, Hiccup. However, when I lifted my gaze to Blue, I noticed his attention was on me. He smiled at me, placing his hand on my knee.
“We made the perfect choice, right?”
I gulped, more interested in his hand which he placed on my thighs, than in his question. My whole body was instantly covered in goosebumps.
Blue barely even touched me. All he did was place his hand on my thigh but fucking hell, my body thought he was doing more, like trying to rile me up when I knew he was only innocently touching me. We were watching cartoons, remember? No one would have lewd thoughts from watching an animation.
I smiled at him nervously and looked back at the screen, trying to wipe the fantasies out of my head. But he kept his hand there. His palm rested on the middle part of my thigh, and his fingers hung loosely over my inner thigh. I tried to ignore it, but a few moments later, I felt his fingers slowly creeping up closer to my inner thigh and under my robe. Okay, that wasn’t so innocent.
