“What’s going through that pretty head of yours, little one?”

  The question should have felt insulting, but coming from Noco it seemed rather endearing. Compared to her he was quite tall, but he was nowhere near as large as Joal. And Joal was nowhere near as large as Rick. It was actually kind of nice to be surrounded by men all taller than her.

  Chloe smiled at Noco. She remembered meeting him a few times in the past year, but in the short time since she’d met him as her husband she could already tell that he was sort of the peacemaker, the one who smoothed over everyone’s hurt feelings and ruffled feathers.

  She decided to go with the truth since she got the impression that he would see through any lie she tried to conjure. “I was just thinking that I’m a bit of a kook. We’ve only just met, but I’m envious of Varn because he’s getting a cuddle and I’m not.”

  The other two men looked a little confused, but Noco grinned and moved closer. “That doesn’t make you a kook. That makes you very, very clever.”

  She laughed again as he wrapped his arms around her and pulled her onto his lap the same way Joal was holding Varn. It was only once she was comfortable that she realized that Varn seemed to be in pain. “Are you okay?” she asked worriedly.

  Varn blushed very much like a human would. “Sorry,” he said, shaking his head, “human clothing is very uncomfortable sometimes.”

  “Oh,” she said, glancing at the concern on Joal’s face. “Would you be more comfortable without clothes?” Did she really just ask that question? “Or, I could…um grab Kyle’s robe. That might be easier to wear.” She was certain she was blushing just as hard as Varn now.

  “Kyle won’t mind if you use his bedroom,” Noco said softly, his tone quite serious. Joal nodded, lifted Varn into his arms, and walked down the hallway. The door closed behind them a moment later.

  “Is he okay?” Chloe whispered.

  “He will be,” Noco assured her. He seemed to hesitate a moment before explaining. “When our dria-coldar claims a new podmate, we all have a very strong need to do the same. When Rick claimed Kyle we knew that he understood what was happening. We’d mated with him many times before so we knew that he wouldn’t be overwhelmed by our combined attentions.” He smiled, his eyes slightly unfocused as he obviously thought back to that time. “It was an amazing couple of nights.”

  Chloe rubbed her forehead as the meaning of the words he didn’t say sank into her brain.

  “Will it hurt more the longer you wait?”

  “Hey,” he said, pulling her closer. “It doesn’t work like that. We’re adults and sentient beings. We control our arousal, not the other way around.”

  “But it would be easier if you could all just fuck me first.”

  He smiled, pressed a kiss to her neck, and lifted her off his lap. “Hell yeah, but I’m pretty sure that just makes us ‘human.’”

  Chapter Four

  Joal carried Varn into Kyle’s bedroom and then helped him out of his clothes. His cock pulsed, the action seeming almost of its own volition until Varn sighed deeply and sat down on the edge of the bed.

  “I had no idea it would be so uncomfortable,” Varn said as Joal stripped off his own clothes and moved to kneel in front of him.

  “I know, sweetheart, and I’ll try to make it better.” Joal lifted a hand to his youngest podmate’s face and caressed his cheek affectionately. Despite the way they annoyed each other at times, Joal felt very protective when it came to Varn. They’d met when Varn had been barely an adult—probably even younger than Kyle and Chloe in equivalent human years—but his eyes had been so sad, far too sad for a Jernodrian about to enter the breeding years of his life. Varn had never fully shared his past with them but it had been obvious almost from the moment that Rick had brought him home to meet them that Varn had been alone for a very long time, probably from the time he’d been a young podling. But whatever had happened to the rest of his family was something he’d never spoken about.

  And they didn’t want to ask.

  It was obvious that Varn feared their reactions if they learned the truth so Joal, Noco, Rick, and even Kyle had spent the past year on Earth simply reassuring Varn that this family pod was where he belonged. Maybe one day he’d be secure enough in their love to share the part of him that he held closed off.

  “Chloe’s beautiful, isn’t she?” Varn asked softly as Joal used both his hands to caress his husband’s hard cock.

  “She is,” Joal agreed as he thought back to the first time he’d met her. He’d driven Kyle home after a long night of loving and had run into Kyle’s roommate by accident. The first time he’d seen Chloe there had been an instant physical attraction but it was her personality that had captured his heart. She’d been sweet and welcoming and very pleasant company. It had also been very clear that she loved Kyle.

  Joal had spoken to Rick that very same night about the possibility of her joining their family, but despite the close friendship she’d ended up having with Rick they’d realized that she had her heart set on living a “normal” life. Compared to human mating rituals, Jernodrian family pods were far from normal.

  He glanced down at the hand he now had wrapped around Varn’s cock and nearly laughed. They might be able to pass as human with their clothes on…

  Varn whimpered softly, his cock swelling and lengthening as his arousal grew. Joal leaned in to press a kiss to his lover’s lips before shuffling on his knees and then leaning over to take Varn’s hard cock into his mouth. He caressed Varn’s thighs with his hands and then gently released the grip he had on his lover’s cock. With his obvious inexperience and one of their dal-sheras in the next room, the only way Varn was going to find complete relief was to follow his body’s instincts.

  Joal felt Varn’s hands caress him, sliding lower as he awkwardly tried to touch Joal all over at the same time. They both groaned as Varn moved higher to caress Joal’s back and shoulders once more.

  “Oh, wow,” Varn gasped, his hands pushing into Joal’s hair as he sucked harder against his cock and encouraged the impregnation barb to swell. Joal’s own cock was starting to ache, but he was far more used to controlling his own arousal. Whatever Varn had been through before he’d joined their family, it was obvious that he hadn’t had the same type of sexual experiences Jernodrians usually indulged in before joining a family pod.

  Joal wrapped his hand around Varn’s cock again, caressing the length that wasn’t pushing into his mouth, willing to give Varn everything he might need to not only feel relief but also to feel loved, to feel accepted, to feel happy.

  Suddenly, Varn jolted, his hips moving off the bed, forcing his cock deeper into Joal’s throat. Joal hummed, encouraging him, urging him on as Varn started to move his cock harder and faster into his mouth. Varn gripped his head, holding him tight against his groin, moving frantically as orgasm began to overwhelm him. Joal swallowed Varn’s cum, his podmate’s unique flavor so very familiar after a whole Earth year together, but somehow also amazing and new.

  Joal’s own arousal spiked, his cock swelling and throbbing as Varn’s barb scrapped his throat. They both shook violently. Joal gasped, his own hips rocking, the unexpected intensity of the sensation setting his nerve endings ablaze. The barb couldn’t impregnate him, but holy fuck, it affected him. He urgently needed to come now, too.

  Far from settling Varn’s powerful need, he’d set off his own, the desperation intense, the sensations overwhelming. He lifted his mouth away from Varn’s cock and took his podmate’s lips in a desperate kiss.

  “Are you sure Varn is okay?” Chloe asked.

  “Varn is a coden-vola. The same as me. With you and Kyle both recently claimed, our—I suppose humans would call them hormones—increase dramatically. When Joal prepares us and we fuck—as you so delicately put it—a dal-shera together it should ensure pregnancy, but any type of sexual activity will relieve the need.”

  “Together? So there’s no such thing as accidental pregnancy where you com
e from?”

  He shook his head. “Not really. Considering the problem humans seem to have in that regard, I’m very happy that we don’t. Although, in some ways I suppose it has contributed to our species reproductive problems.”

  “How so?”

  “With pregnancy being a deliberate choice, many family pods in the past few generations have chosen to start a family much later in life. Nobody really understands why so few dal-sheras are being born on Jernodria, but statistically speaking it seems to be related to offspring being birthed much later in a family pod’s life.”

  She let that information sink in for a while, but then she realized what he’d admitted to earlier.

  “A coden-vola? Just like you?” She reached over to grip his hand, wanting to offer comfort even though she realized touching him was probably the last thing she should do. “Are you in pain as well?”

  “Just a little,” he admitted.

  “Do you want to join Joal and Varn in the bedroom? I don’t mind. Rick and Kyle will be back soon to keep me company.”

  “I’ve got a better idea. Why don’t you come with me? Just to watch,” he was quick to assure. “Think of it as learning about the Jernodrian lifestyle.”

  “Okay,” she said, trying to hide her own delicious reaction to the thought of watching these three beautiful men together. Her nipples were already beaded and pressing against the thick covering of her robe and her pussy tingled both from memories of last night and in anticipation of what she might see.

  Noco grinned, helped her from the sofa, and guided her down the hallway.

  * * * *

  Joal was still kissing Varn as if their lives depended on it when the bedroom door opened behind them. He was half expecting to feel Rick’s arms or his telekinetic power wrap around them both, but when he realized it was Noco and Chloe in the room with them, he almost shot his load then and there.

  He desperately wanted to touch their newest dal-shera, but it was enough for now just to know that she watched. It had to be. He refused to be ruled by his hormones. Oddly enough, that thought gave him a measure of calm, the realization that soon they might be able to start their family very soothing to his hearts and mind. Just knowing that the long years of waiting were finally over somehow tempered the desperation inside him.

  Noco moved Kyle’s desk chair so that Chloe had the perfect view and then quickly stripped off his own uncomfortable human-style clothes and joined them on the bed.

  Joal couldn’t resist using one of his own hands to wrap gently around Noco’s rock-solid cock. It was very clear that he was in as much pain as Varn had been a few minutes ago. Noco groaned, his hips moving against Joal’s gentle embrace.

  “Do you want me to fuck you, Noc?” he asked in a whisper, not certain what Noco had in mind when he’d come into the room with Chloe in tow.

  Noco nodded eagerly, wriggling to push his ass closer to Joal’s cock. Varn grinned and moved closer, as well, his renewed arousal very clear by both his rock-hard cock and his writhing movements. Joal balanced himself with a hand on each of his husbands’ cocks and stroked both of them with the same rhythm. The three of them groaned in unison, Noco’s deep sound ending in a soft sigh as Joal fit his cock to his backside. He let his natural lubrication ease the way as he pushed deep into his podmate’s ass. Noco writhed against him, pushing back eagerly as Varn shuffled on his knees and took Noco’s lips in a beautiful kiss.

  Varn groaned as Joal released his cock and used a finger to probe his ass, adding more digits as he pushed in farther, mating both of his husbands lovingly as they held and kissed each other. He kept up the slow pace, fucking them both deeply, his need for them growing despite his wish to prolong this moment. He closed his eyes, enjoying this unexpected time with his podmates.

  It was the soft moan from beside him that caught him by surprise. He glanced up to see Chloe standing there, her eyes taking in everything as she followed the path of each of his hands and cock. Very slowly, very nervously he lifted his gaze to hers, caressing her with his eyes, groaning when she shivered with her own need and then sighed softly.

  She reached a hand over to stroke his shoulders, touching him affectionately as he slowly lost control of his need. Chloe grinned, leaning in to press a kiss to his neck before moving away and giving them space.

  He urged Noco and Varn onto their sides, so that they could take each other’s cock into their mouths. He lay down behind Noco and thrust his cock back into his lover’s ass. He moved his hips in time with the fingers still in Varn’s ass, smiling as he watched them suck on each other’s cocks like it was some sort of race.

  Noco groaned first, Varn’s earlier orgasm giving him a little more control over this one, but Joal’s own need caught him by surprise, the rhythmic squeezing of Noco’s anal muscles around his cock quickly throwing him into his own orgasm. Varn made a muffled sound, apparently gloating at his ability to outlast them both. Joal wasn’t surprised when Noco retaliated by pushing his fingers into Varn’s ass, thrusting in beside Joal’s own.

  The younger Jernodrian practically screamed as he came, his voice hoarse as Noco sucked harder and harder against his cock. Joal slapped Noco’s ass playfully as he continued to torment their podmate, grinning even as Varn gasped for breath. Eventually, Noco relented, finally releasing Varn from his mouth.

  Very carefully Joal untangled the three of them, grinning like a plooda—quite an accomplishment considering the goofy-looking, birdlike creature didn’t actually have any teeth—when he noticed the deep satisfaction on both of his husband’s faces. Noco tiredly wriggled off the edge of the mattress, pulling a very reluctant Varn to his feet.

  “Come on, baby. I feel the need for a very hot, human-style bath.”

  Varn grinned, and cuddled into Noco’s arms as they both weaved on unsteady feet toward Kyle’s bathroom. Joal turned his attention to Chloe, smiling when he realized she was squirming in her seat and panting in arousal. It might not have been exactly what he would have wanted for their first sexual encounter but just knowing that she wasn’t running from them was a balm to both his worried hearts.

  “Do you…um…have a…ah…barb on your tongue like Rick?”

  “I actually have two. One on my tongue. One on my dick,” he said, smiling in the hopes that she knew it was okay to ask. “I suppose it was a shock for you at first.”

  She laughed quietly. “I think that’s a bit of an understatement. Being with Rick was overwhelming, but the barb experience is hard to describe. I’m still embarrassed that I pushed the door open and watched my best friends together.”

  “Technically speaking, Rick probably opened the door for you. He has a telekinetic ability that makes it possible for him to move things without physically touching them. Sometimes if it’s something he really wants, it moves without him actively thinking about it.” He laughed softly. Chloe was so perfect for them. He had little doubt that Rick had opened the door when he’d sensed her nearby. “Rick’s also a shape-shifter, capable of changing very quickly into different forms when it’s needed.”

  Joal wanted to tell Chloe everything, share their entire lives with her. Hell, he knew he probably shouldn’t overwhelm her with too much information—his own ability to create illusions could wait for explanation on another day—but his need to draw her into their family was undeniable.

  “Historically, the dria-coldar is the protector of the pod,” Joal said as he lifted himself off the mattress. He wanted to take the woman into his arms, but realized that he should get cleaned up first. “Protection is not as important now that Jernodria is enjoying a period of peace, but—I suppose humans would call them my great grandparents—in my great grandparents’ lifetimes it was very different. The strength and abilities of a dria-coldar were often the difference between life and death. Rick is a very capable dria-coldar. I have no doubt he’ll keep us safe.”

  Joal winced as he filled in that part. They were planning to take her home to their planet. He shouldn’t be frightening
her with things that had happened several Earth centuries ago.

  “I’ll just go and clean up. I won’t be a moment,” he said, wanting to shut himself up before he said anything that actually did make her run from them.

  He hurried into the bathroom, not surprised to find his husbands soaking in a bath and kissing each other lazily as the tub slowly filled with warm water. Joal moved past them and stepped into the shower. As much as he wanted to linger, he didn’t want to leave Chloe alone for too long. If she was going to freak out, now was probably the most likely time.

  He scrubbed, washed, and rinsed in record time, and then practically ran back into the bedroom.

  Thankfully, Chloe was still there.

  * * * *

  Kyle wrapped his arms around Rick and rested his head on the big man’s chest as they waited for their food order to be ready. Rick held him close without saying a word, but Kyle could feel the tension running through him. Considering the orgasms he, Rick, and Chloe had shared last night and this morning, he should have been far more relaxed.

  If Kyle had only realized what was happening last night he might have been able to prevent it.

  He ground his teeth and asked himself the real question.

  Would he have prevented it if he’d been able?

  He’d loved Chloe for a very long time. The idea of leaving the planet without her had never been palatable for him, but in the past few months he’d believed he’d reconciled himself to the loss. He’d actually hoped that she would meet a great guy and fall in love and finally live the life she’d always wanted all before Kyle agreed to go home with his new podmates.

  But it had been unfair to ask his podmates to wait any longer on a planet that stifled their very natures. Kyle had discovered his bisexuality in middle school so he knew all about being forced to hide a huge part of himself from the people around him. It was unfair to force that need onto men who’d done nothing but love him.
