Chapter 14
Aurumâs skin tingled with the cool sprinkle of mist from the waterfall at the back of Calderâs bungalow. She kept her face upturned, concentrating on the song that filtered through the air from the center of the Haven. The new version was different than Devaâs first song. More restrained, less filled with joy and hope and love. The first song had been as lovely as the mating call her sister Belah had sung for her almost two years earlier, just before theyâd embarked on the search for their mates. If Deva was finding love for the first time, she should embrace it. Sing louder, not hold back. Aurum would have to talk to her after the ritual was done and make sure she understood it was all right to seek what truly gave her joy.
A pair of warm bodies moved in on either side of her, every cell in her body shifting focus to the two men who gave her joy. Without opening her eyes, she could identify who was who. Calderâs gentle touch at her back, his other hand threading his fingers through hers against the railing she leaned on. Nicholasâs lips pressing against her bare shoulder, his dark hair falling in a silken cascade across her upper arm.
âItâs time,â Calder said. âLlyr says Deva is ready for more power.â
âYou are melded with Llyr, arenât you?â she asked, opening her eyes to look at her satyr mate. He stood in his full primal glory, horns glistening with the wetness of the mist, his features more angular and intense than his softer, human face. His cock was an immense, thick column jutting up between them that practically mocked her interest in anything but fucking.
Calder nodded. âThe male Thiasoi are not blood melded, but yes, we are linked to facilitate swift communication.â
âDoes he know why Devaâs song changed? She was singing of love before, but now the song is more reserved. I donât like what that might signify. Did you hear the same?â
Nicholas met her gaze then lifted an eyebrow as he and Calder shared a look. âUnrequited love, if I had to make a wild guess. I have been acquainted with that emotion.â
With a worried frown, she looked at Calder. âWell? Does Llyr know anything about it?â
Calder inhaled slowly and closed his eyes. She observed him, avoiding using their meld to eavesdrop on his communication with his fellow Thiasoi satyr, though she got a sense of irritation that bled through despite not knowing what her mate heard.
A moment later he pursed his lips and opened his eyes. âMy uncleâs edict forbids Llyr from acting on any desire for carnal knowledge of Deva. Heâs in turmoil over it, but has camouflaged his deeper desire from her as well as he can for now. I canât believe my uncle did this. After hearing that song, Llyr is beside himself.â
âHe wants to make love to her?â Aurum asked.
A flash of pain crossed Calderâs face. âHe wants even more. I donât think Neph realizes how deep a connection all the Thiasoi satyrs have to Deva.
