"I know."

She began to move at once, rising and dropping in short, deep strokes that forced him all the way in each time.

"I waited too long to be careful about it."

There was no slow build.

Griselda rode him with focused intensity, wings half-spread for balance, heavy breasts swaying with every motion.

Kane sat up, caught one pale nipple in his mouth, and sucked hard.

She exhaled sharply and pushed her chest forward, giving him more.

He switched to the other breast, teeth grazing, tongue working the peak while she kept the rhythm demanding and steady.

The wet sound of her cunt taking him was quieter than Kessa’s had been, but no less filthy.

Griselda’s hands braced on his shoulders, claws pricking lightly as she fucked herself down onto him with increasing force.

Her yellow eyes stayed open and locked on his face.

"Harder," she said, voice low.

Kane gripped her ass and thrust up to meet every drop of her hips.

The angle drove him deep.

Griselda’s rhythm faltered for half a second, then she pushed through it, taking the new intensity with open, hungry sounds she had never made in front of him before.

Her breasts bounced heavily against his face and chest.

He buried his face between them again, breathing her in, mouthing the soft inner curves while she used him.

She came first with a controlled, shaking moan, cunt clamping down in tight waves.

Kane felt every pulse. He did not stop. He kept thrusting up into her through the orgasm until she was trembling and oversensitive and still moving on him as if stopping would undo the choice she had finally made.

"Again," he muttered against her skin. "Give me one more."

Griselda’s answer was to lean forward, brace both hands on the mattress beside his head, and grind down onto him with short, circular rolls of her hips that kept the head of his cock rubbing hard inside her.

Her heavy breasts hung in his face. He sucked one nipple, then the other, leaving them wet and dark while she chased the second peak with single-minded focus.

It hit her harder than the first. Her wings flared fully open for a moment, feathers trembling, and a broken sound escaped her throat before she could lock it down.

The rhythmic milking of her cunt dragged Kane over the edge with her.

He held her hips flush to his and came deep, pulsing inside her in thick waves while she kept grinding through it, taking every drop.

They stayed locked together for several breaths. Griselda’s forehead rested against his. Her wings slowly folded again. Neither of them spoke at once.

Then a familiar, rough voice came from the other side of the bed.

"Well. That took long enough."

Kessa had woken.

She propped herself on one elbow, striped hair a mess, eyes half-lidded but fully aware. She looked at the two of them, still joined, Griselda’s pale body marked by Kane’s hands, seed already starting to leak out around the base of his cock—and arched one eyebrow.

"I leave you alone for one pre-dawn walk, and you finally decide to fuck the angel. Should I be insulted or impressed?"

Griselda didn’t pull away. She met Kessa’s gaze directly, still seated on Kane, and answered with quiet honesty.

"Both, if you want. I am not asking for permission after the fact."

Kessa snorted, the sound edged with sharp, possessive humor rather than real anger.

"Good. Because you wouldn’t have gotten it if you waited. Move over. I’m not sleeping on the wet spot you two just made."

Kane exhaled something that might have been a tired laugh.

Griselda finally lifted off him; the loss of heat was immediate.

She settled on his other side without modesty, one heavy breast pressed against his ribs, wings tucked close.

Kessa crawled in on the opposite side and threw a striped arm across his chest, deliberately staking her usual place.

"You’re cleaning me up later," Kessa muttered against his shoulder.

"Both of you. I’m not starting the day sticky because the angel finally got hungry."

Griselda’s voice was calm, almost dry.

"I can accept that term."

Kane lay between them as the first true light of morning began to push against the shutters.

The compound outside was still quiet.

Lira’s rejected heat, the new mutant’s tar, the River-Fang’s conditional recognition, and the summons that had not yet arrived all waited beyond the door.

Inside the guest house, the three of them settled into an exhausted, tangled heap, Kessa’s familiar striped weight on one side, Griselda’s fuller, newly claimed body on the other—and let the short remaining dark take them.

That’s enough to stay for now.

It’s time to finish what I came for and go back to my wives.

Mid-morning light cut across the compound in hard, clean bars.

Kane woke first. Kessa still had one striped arm locked across his chest.

Griselda lay on his other side, pale and quiet, one heavy breast pressed against his ribs, wings tucked close.

The guest house smelled of sex, dried tar, and the lingering heat of two different claims.

He extracted himself carefully, pulled on trousers and a clean shirt, and stepped outside with Mjoldr already in hand.

The compound was too still

Razan stood on the main porch with his arms crossed.

Shenron was beside him, broadsword within reach, red eyes fixed on the gate. Lira was nowhere in sight.

The younger runners and household warriors had all moved to the edges of the yard, silent and watchful.

Kane felt it before he saw them, the disciplined weight of real authority approaching.

The gate opened without being touched from inside.

A formal detachment of Grathak’s personal soldiers entered in two neat files.

They wore dark, fitted armor marked with the emperor’s bone-and-claw sign.

Every one of them was a heavy, experienced beast warrior, lion, bear, and wolf blood mixed with deliberate care.

They moved like a single body.

No wasted glances. No open challenges. The kind of politeness that only absolute power could afford.

Their leader stopped three paces from the porch. He was taller than Shenron, silver-streaked across the muzzle, and carried no visible weapon because he did not need one. His voice was calm, almost courteous.

"Razan of the eastern compound. Shenron of the river post. We carry the emperor’s word."

Razan’s jaw was tight.

"Speak it."

The leader’s gaze moved past both of them and settled on Kane as he crossed the yard.

"Kane, called the barbarian. The tiger-striped female known as Kessa. The winged angel who travels with them. You are ordered to appear before the emperor in his hall within two days. You will come under escort if you refuse. You will come freely if you understand the difference."
