Chapter Fifty-Three – Perfect Moment
Pleasure washed through him in waves. Theo and Vee were praising him and peppered his neck and face with kisses and small licks. Jack felt so full he could burst, and no, not that way, although his mates had filled him quite well.
"I will have to mark you, Jack," Theodore whispered in his ear.
"Oh," Jack barely managed. "Will it hurt?"
"A bit, yes. I will not lie to you." Theo was sniffing him, tickling Jack's neck.
"Am I ready?"
Theodore's chuckle was low and dangerous. Good thing Vince was also holding him, or else, from too much squirming, Jack was in danger of pulling himself away, which was definitely not what he wanted.
Or needed. While Theo was slowly nipping at him, at that place between the neck and shoulder that Jack suddenly identified as his best erogenous spot this very moment, his nose caught a scent. It was strong and manly and Jack couldn't get enough of it, no matter how much he tried. His loud gasps made both Theo and Vee laugh.
"What is it, Wolfie?" Theo teased him.
"You smell yummy," Jack declared.
"No, you smell yummy," Theodore said back.
Jack moaned as he felt Theo's fangs – they had definitely grown longer – grazing his skin now.
"Vee," Jack whispered, "Theo is about to bite me."
"How do you feel about that?" Vince asked, always the protector.
"Like I want him to bite me. Really bad."
"Then how about you say the words?" Vince suggested.
"What words?" Jack mumbled.
"Pledge yourself to me, my mate," Theo growled in his ear.
"So it's a ritual. Of course, it is. Bite me, alpha? Is that what I should say?"
The low grumble in Theodore's chest assured him that he was on the right track. So he repeated the words, this time with no hesitation in them.
Theodore stopped for a moment. It all seemed suspended, the noises, their bodies, even the air stood still. And then, Jack felt a sting, a burning sensation, pain that brought tears to his eyes before his mind could even process what was happening. It all lasted a moment, because a sweetness like honey began pouring into his blood.
Vince held him, caressing his face and kissing him, while Theo marked him with his alpha's bite.
Jack fell asleep before he could even say proper thanks for being made his alpha's mate.

A delicious laziness dictated his moves, or better said, the lack thereof. Jack stretched and yawned, rubbing his head against Vee's chest while searching blindly for Theo's hand. He'd fallen asleep between his two mates, and now he was unwilling to get up, although he knew that they couldn't stay in the mating cave forever.
Theo shifted and hugged him from behind, his arm resting on Jack's hip, with no intention of going lower. Now that was a situation that needed some adjustments, Jack thought. His little friend was twitching. Great. He had really turned into a slut and now all he could think of was how to get drilled again.
Two cocks, in his ass. Wasn't that crazy? He had just done that, and he still couldn't believe it. He buried his nose in Vee's armpit, inhaling the calming scent of his mate.
"Calming my ass." He snorted and then realized that he'd said that out loud.
Vince's chest rumbled with laughter. A few tiny sparks in green, red and blue skittered on the walls to the rhythm of his chuckling.
"Did you see that?" Jack exclaimed, managing to wake up Theodore, too, in the process.
"See what?" a very sleepy Theo asked.
"Fireflies. This place is insane," Jack commented.
"They live here," Theodore said matter-of-factly. His hand was now inching closer to Jack's dick.
"Do you mean they're watching us? Do you think they watched us while we did all that naughty stuff? What if they film us and release our sex tape online?"
"Jack," Theodore purred in his ear, while his hand went in for the kill, "is this you trying to tell us that you'd like a sex tape?"
"Not really, no," Jack hurried to protest. "I mean, unless you want the same thing."
"You little pervert," Theodore teased him. "Don't worry. These fireflies don't come equipped with smartphones, and they aren't watching us, anyway. They're very decent fireflies."
"Phew, that really takes a weight off my chest," Jack said. "Vee, why aren't you saying anything?"
"I'm too busy watching and listening to you. Guys, do you realize that we are mates now? It's more than I've ever imagined. Even when your cards kept telling us this truth, I had no idea whether it would come to pass or not."
Jack giggled and rubbed his forehead against Vince's side again. "It's not like you to be insecure. Are all guardians like you?"
"How should I know? I haven't met any other guardians."
"They are rare," Theodore joined the conversation. He was slowly and lazily jerking Jack off, like it was the most natural thing in the world to do that and talk at the same time. "I'm really lucky, Vince. All my life, I've thought that alphas could only have one mate. And I have the two of you."
"Not to mention," Jack said, deciding it was an excellent moment to start bragging, "that you don't have just ordinary mates. I mean, I'm literally the child of the Sun and the Moon, which puts me like in the A league or something like that."
Theo squeezed his dick a little more, making him moan and throw his head back.
"You're so full of yourself. Let's remedy that."
It was easy to understand what Theodore meant. Jack lifted one leg, happy like a dog ready to release a powerful stream and mark his territory while his alpha mate filled him with his cock from behind.
"Wow, it's going in so easily," he wondered out loud.
"Yes, it is," Theodore said. "But remember how much work Vince and I had to put into this. Just in case you thought you have a magical asshole now."
"Why shouldn't I have a magical asshole?" Jack considered that he deserved at least that. Well, on top of the fact he could read the future by laying down his cards, he could shift into a wolf and back into a human as many times as he wanted and any time he wanted – presumably, since he hadn't tried it more than once or so – and he was basically the child of deities. Yeah, he could still use a magical asshole. Seeing how much double penetration he'd gotten from his mates, he would definitely feel it later.
"Is there room in there for me, too?" Vee, the pervert, insisted on asking.
Jack lifted his leg higher as if that could actually help. "Why don't you try? I'm still testing the abilities of my asshole to take both my horny mates at the same time."
"Aren't you complaining?" Vee teased him.
Jack shivered and let out a moan as Vince shifted closer and slid his cock in, joining Theodore's huge shaft.
Regardless of what they were saying, Jack was sure his asshole had to be magical, after all. How else could he take two large cocks inside him so easily?
"This one's for you," Theo whispered in his ear.
"Right," Jack snorted, "as if you two aren't getting off by rubbing your dicks together inside me."
"We are," Vee said, deciding to be the honest one. "But in case you haven't realized it yet, we are more than considerate, or we might end up overusing you."
"Don't tell me that you think I'm delicate or some other thing?"
"You are delicate, Jack," Vee said tenderly. "And we'd never do anything to hurt you. Right, Theodore?"
"Of course," Theo confirmed. "We want to be able to fuck you like this, Jack, for as long as we can."
It sounded like a great deal. Nonetheless, Jack decided to encourage his mates to fuck him faster and deeper and harder, taking great joy in how he could make them lose their heads just by being kinky during sex and saying the most daring things.
***
Vince laughed as he splashed his mates with water and got splashed back. The mating cave came with a large subterranean lake. Its water was warm and smelled faintly of sulphur. Jack, especially, enjoyed attacking Theodore with all the force he had stored in his lithe body, which equaled the force of a chipmunk, even one on steroids. Theodore took pleasure in teasing him by dodging and catching him, only to drag him underwater and pull him out so Jack could shout a string of expletives that were precisely like him, bawdy, but never ill-intended.
Theodore said that guardians were rare. That made him wonder whether he would ever meet other guardians. Were they also living here, in this world beyond the veil?
The veil. So much time seemed to have passed since they had passed through that boundary between what he'd believed to be the only world possible not so very long ago and this realm where Theodore's pack lived.
For centuries or maybe more, Whiteflame had guarded these lands and prevented the evil of the Black Forest from seeping into the world. Did that mean that they would, once more, take upon themselves a similar task?
But the evil had been conquered. Was the veil still needed?
Such questions were running through his head while he watched his mates frolicking in the water.
Theodore seemed to notice his pensive stare and splashed some water at him. Reflections danced on the walls as the droplets fell in waves on the face of the underground lake. The colors were so beautiful here. Jack had all the right to be mesmerized, especially since there was no telling where the light was coming from.
"A penny for your thoughts," Theodore said, swimming closer.
"You don't have a penny," Vince teased him. "I believe you left the world of money and meetings and being a CEO behind, alpha."
"True." Theodore chuckled softly and joined him. Not far from them, Jack was enjoying himself, discovering that he could actually swim on his own. "What are you thinking, Vince?"
"Will I meet other guardians?" Vince saw no reason to avoid being honest with his mate.
"I truly don't know. Would you like to?"
"In a way… they're my people, right?"
Theodore nodded slowly. "You are part of my pack. But that doesn't exclude the possibility that you could bond with others. Not the way you're bonding with me, however." He gave Vince a stern look, but his eyes were laughing.
Vince cupped his hand in the water and sent its contents flying at the arrogant alpha's face. Theodore laughed.
"Forgive me, but I believed you might enjoy a little proof of ownership from me," Theodore said gallantly.
"I wouldn't mind," Vince agreed. "Theodore, I know that it might be too soon to talk about such things, but what will happen with the veil? Is the evil rooted in the underworld gone forever?"
"We cannot know for sure. My pack has lived on these lands for so long and was given this noble role from the Moon herself. Do you envision that your life with us might prove one filled with hardships?"
"I don't mind hardships. In case you don't know me by now, alpha, I'll explain it and prove it to you. I am made for handling hardships."
"Good, but don't get your panties in a twist over it." Theodore grinned and stole a kiss from Vince.
Vince didn't mind that at all. After all, even if they were here to become part of Theodore's pack, that didn't mean that they couldn't have fun while fulfilling their roles, as well.
Encouraged by how Vince opened his mouth to receive his alpha's tongue, Theodore deepened their kiss. His hand was on Vince's chest, teasing a nipple. Well, he didn't mind this development, because his cock had rested enough to want another round.
It looked like Theodore didn't mind that idea, either, because he quickly went from teasing to being serious about the things he wanted to do to Vince.
The water held them – magical as it had to be – so they ended up with their limbs tangled together, while their cocks touched and rubbed against each other.
That reminded him of Jack's naughty words. Would it be so forward of him to suggest to Theodore what role he wanted to assume now for a change?
"Tell me what you want, Vince," Theodore encouraged him. "You are my mate, so I live to serve you."
"Those are some big words, alpha," Vince said in one breath. "Do you recall what Jack said? About you… mounting me?"
Theodore's chuckle was low and sexy. "Do you want my big alpha cock inside you?"
Vince knew he could handle everything. Still, the way Theodore said that, teasing but with determination, made him swallow hard. "I've never bottomed for anyone. You'd be the first to do that, alpha."
"Then I must make sure that you have a good time," Theodore promised. "The way you marked me, with your cum, that's something I'll never forget. It will be part of the day we mated for the first time forever. I don't mind adding to future pleasant memories by fucking you."
"Have you ever talked like this to your lovers before?" Vince asked, postponing the inevitable just a smidge.
"No, never. They weren't my mates," Theodore explained and turned Vince slowly only so he could plaster his hard body against him. "Also, there is one more thing we must do before we leave this place."
Vince didn't ask what that was. His body was reacting to his alpha's touch and body, the way they pressed against each other. He had to admit that Theodore possessed an unnatural force because his alpha quickly helped him out of the water and positioned him on all fours on solid ground.
He let out a small curse when Theodore's tongue started probing his asshole quite vigorously. When Theodore's cock joined in the fun, he was more than ready.
"Are you two conspiring behind my back?"
Jack's exclamation made them both stop. Theodore was barely half-way inside him, and the interruption wasn't exactly welcome.
"How about you join us?" Theodore asked out loud. "Especially since you inspired Vince to ask for this."
Jack came closer, paddling through the water like an eager puppy. "For real?" he asked. "Did Vee ask for it?"
"Vee is right here, ready to take it," Vince said. "Yes, I did. And it's your fault for making me want it, so come on up here and stick your delicious stick in my mouth."
He was right to tease Jack like that, because the clairvoyant's eyes sparkled like stars. In one move, he was out of the water. Vince took Jack's cock in his hand and gave it a long lick.
"Wow," Jack exclaimed. "Vee is sucking such a mean dick."
"Are you trying to tell me that I don't?" Theodore asked right away, obviously taking such a claim as a direct affront to his own cocksucking abilities.
"You both do," Jack hurried to appease his alpha. "You are the best cocksuckers in the world."
Vince took Jack's cock deep and then released it slowly. Then he allowed himself a small quip. "Have you had everyone in the world on their knees in front of you, Jack, so you can make a claim like that?"
Jack winced. "Well, it doesn't matter," he said quickly. "What matters is that you two are the best cocksuckers for me. My cocksuckers."
"It's good that you claim us so directly," Theodore said. "But how about we stop talking now and enjoy a little bit of mating?"
"A little bit?" Jack expressed his surprise right away. "We are basically fucking each other to the bone."
"I don't think I want to know what that's supposed to mean," Vince said and swallowed Jack's dick again, to the hilt.
It was the right call, because their alpha seemed impatient. Theodore didn't hesitate to push inside Vince's virgin hole until he was all the way in.
Now that was mating with an alpha. Vince held on to Jack's lithe but solid frame as Theodore started moving slowly. There were tears in his eyes, because even if the penetration moved at a slow pace, and his alpha was a considerate lover, it didn't mean that his body could accept it so easily.
"Jack," he moaned, pulling out the clairvoyant's cock out of his mouth for a moment, "just how big is Theodore? I feel like he is splitting me in half and that's me being coy, by the way."
"Ha! Are you really complaining? I took both of you. I have a magical asshole!" Jack said proudly.
"Yeah, you're a hero," Vince commented while Theodore pushed inside again, making him shiver from head to toe.
Whether it was the magical mating cave doing things to make their coupling feel even more intense or not, it didn't matter. What mattered was that Vince was experiencing the exquisite pleasure of having a handsome, powerful man fuck him, and it felt amazing.
***
Vince's muscular ass was not as pliant as Jack's twinkish backside. Theodore had to admit that it wasn't easy to possess a body as wonderful as the guardian's. He was all muscles everywhere, and it showed in how tightly he squeezed him. Theodore's cock had a reputation to preserve, which meant that he needed to strike the precise balance between the strength needed to conquer that fortress of a man and the need to remain the same gentle, loving partner.
He was, of course, more than a partner for Vince and Jack. He was their alpha. And no alpha was going to run away in the face of a challenge.
With slow moves, he started caressing Vince's large, hard as granite back. His fingers took in the valleys, the ridges, the shapes of each muscle. Theodore couldn't recall if he'd ever treated any lover of his with so much attention. Just admiring Vince's back and the two muscular globes that were the guardian's butt cheeks was enough to make him hard beyond belief. At the same time, his mind was succumbing to a haze of lust.
The alpha in him reacted, reminding him that the ritual had to be complete. The guardian hadn't said a thing, he hadn't complained or demanded to be marked the same way Jack had been marked.
Theodore let his tongue slide over his teeth. His fangs were recognizing Vince as a mate, the same way his nose recognized the strong, masculine scent coming from his mate's neck. He leaned over and moved his fangs slowly over the flesh they would soon penetrate.
"You are mine," he whispered.
Vince let go of sucking Jack off to turn his head and say, "I am yours, alpha."
Those words were enough. Theodore sank his fangs deep, waiting for his mate's taste to hit him. It did, like a hurricane, a complement to Jack's bubbly and tangy aroma. Vince moaned loudly, urging him to go deeper and harder.
Theodore licked the wound, helping it close. It was done. It was perfect. Vince's moans subsided, turning muffled while Jack gave the guardian's mouth a task to perform.
Any alpha would be madly in lust with his mate. There was no question about it. But it was more that, Theodore realized. His eyes fleeted to Jack, whose hand was in Vince's hair now, while his mouth kept whispering words of praise that slid off his tongue like honey.
As if he could feel him, Jack looked up. The clairvoyant gave him a smile as big as the sun. Theodore's chest filled with warmth.
He understood it then, and he understood it well. It wasn't about mating or not only about mating anymore. Yes, he admired Vince's rugged, manly beauty. He was helpless before Jack, his ever-running mouth, and pale skin.
But it was more, so much more than that. From the crown of his head to the toes of his feet, he belonged to these two men.
Two men he was in love with. Two men who he loved. Destiny had an odd way of bringing people together, whether they were alphas or not. Theodore believed another truth starting that moment.
That he would have found Vince and Jack even if he'd had to travel the world end to end. They belonged to him completely. And he was theirs.
His lips moved of their own accord.
"I love you," he said, loud and clear, as his hips moved and his cock kept penetrating Vince's strong behind, his eyes locked with Jack's loving stare.
Jack made a funny face, as he was meant to, and pointed at himself, mouthing a silent 'me?'
Theodore smiled. His muscles burned from their vigorous fucking, but he loved every second of it.
"Both of you. I love you, my mates."
Vince turned, still holding Jack's cock inside his mouth. He looked amazing like that.
Jack hurried to make the moment perfect. He silenced Vince who seemed about to say something by pushing his cock deeper inside the guardian's mouth.
"Vee can't talk right now, but he means to say, through me, that we very much love you back, too, alpha."
