Chapter 57

Scarlett’s POV

0440

Clay’s warm, cinnamon scent filled my senses, but it wasn’t enough to steady the trembling that still ran through me. I needed something more, something deeper, to calm the storm inside me.

Slowly, I brought his face closer, uncertain but hopeful, searching his eyes for any sign of hesitation. He understood me, his gaze softening with a quiet understanding before he leaned in, pressing his lips to mine.

The kiss began gentle and soothing, but soon, a spark ignited between us, fierce and consuming, a fire that burned away my lingering fear.

His lips left mine and traveled along my neck, leaving a trail of warmth that spread through me. I gasped, overcome by sensation, and he paused, his eyes meeting mine with a gentle intensity.

“Do you mind if I touch you?” he asked, his voice low and full of care. I shook my head, my heart pounding as I silently welcomed him closer, wanting to lose myself in the safety of his touch.

“I want to claim you, Scarlett,” he murmured, his fingers brushing gently against my skin, his breath close to my ear, “but we’ll need to do that together, all of us. For now… I want to feel you, to taste you…“. he stooped to look at me.

There was something knowing in his gaze, a look that told me he understood what Maxwell and I had shared. A flutter of anticipation stirred in me, and my body responded, eager for the comfort only he could give.

Clay’s hands found the hem of the oversized shirt, lifting it carefully and letting it slip from my shoulders. His touch was tender, reverent, as if he wanted me to feel cherished. He took his time, his fingers trailing over my skin, his lips following, sending waves of warmth through every inch of me.

His mouth explored, worshiping me with a gentleness that made me forget everything else. When he finally took my breast into his mouth, pleasure washed over me, releasing the last remnants of tension and fear, leaving only bliss.

My fingers tangled in his hair, and he let out a low, possessive growl, the sound thrilling me to my core.

I felt Vinn’s presence, too, as though he were silently sharing this moment with us. Clay moved to my core, to give me pleasure.

The intensity built quickly, a rush of sensation that took me higher and higher until I shattered, waves of pleasure breaking over me. Clay moved up to kiss

me, sealing the moment with a tender intimacy that filled my heart as much as my body.

Just as my hand found his chest, seeking to pull him closer, the sound of footsteps in the apartment broke the quiet, and I heard Lucian and Maxwell’s voices approaching. Heat rose in my cheeks as I realised how exposed I was.

Clay, sensing my unease, gently helped me slip the shirt back on, his hands reassuring on my shoulders as he gave me a comforting smile.

Lucian entered first, his eyes gleaming with an amused warmth as he took in my shy expression. He knew.

“You’re too shy, Scarlett,” he said with a gentle laugh. “I can’t wait for you to get used to us, to be bold.” There was a playful glint in his eyes that made my

blush deepen, but his smile eased my embarrassment.

Maxwell, standing beside him, shared the same knowing smile. They both understood what had transpired between Clay and me, and instead of judgment. there was pride and happiness in their eyes, as if they were glad we had found this moment together.

I felt an unfamiliar warmth fill me, knowing these men truly wanted me to feel safe, wanted me to feel joy and peace in their presence.

“The wok is being punished. People said she was the one that told the attackers about you.” Maxwell said, and I noticed they were worried.

“Is everything alright?” I asked, concerned, and they did not say yes, which worried me again.

“If they believed her, we would start getting a lot of attacks since some of them escaped,” Lucian said, and I shook my head.

“They did not believe her. They thought I was Alpha Maxwell’s bed warmer, which was why they beat her daughter Annie. They thought she had lied to them about me being a Vladislav.”

“How did they come up with that?” Maxwell asked me curiously.

“They asked me, and that was the first response that came to my mind,” I said, and he began to laugh.

“You are smart, Scarlett. We were worried you confessed who you were,” Lucian said, and I shook my head.

“By the way, call us by our names without our title. You are our mate and will be the Luna once we claim you. You can’t be addressing us with our titles.” Clay said, and I nodded in agreement.

That night, I slept in their apartment. Lucian held m

on the left, Clay held me on the right, and Maxwell returned to his room. There was no space for him, and he had already spent an entire night with me alone. The way they argued and talked about who would lay closest to me made me laugh. I was happy and felt wanted for the first time in my life.
