I narrow my eyes toward Lucien, an amused gleam in them as he gazes toward me, a feral growl pouring from Jace’s lips with the look.

“Enough.” My tone colder, tired from waiting here while they stare at each other.

“Lucien, turn around.” I glare toward the languid ass behind Jace’s shoulder.

Lucien raises a slow brow as if to say, ‘why?’

“We don’t need to be here all day, hurry.” My tone clipped as I narrow my eyes at him.

He rolls his eyes, a small tilt to his lips, before he lazily turns toward the door.

“Jace, move so I can reach my clothes,” he grumbles but doesn’t move.

“Then get them for me?” He eyes them from the side before quickly turning back to Lucien. Even though he was turned toward the door, Jace still didn’t want to budge.

“Either way, I need to get dressed…or do you want me walking around like this?” I press into his back, allowing him to feel my bare breasts and skin against him. He shudders before a growl pours from his lips. Thought so.

“Then I’ll need those.” I point toward my crumpled clothes.

He huffs before quickly grabbing them, coming back within seconds, shifter speed.

I smile as he turns back toward Lucien, covering me with his own bare body. I put my clothes back on, realizing I’m missing one piece. I turn to Jace, who’s now almost fully dressed, his glare never leaving Lucien’s back as he pulls his top over his hard abs.

“All decent now?” Lucien calls before turning around. He looks toward me, a dark smile tilting his lips. “Pity.”

I quickly grab Jace’s hand as he takes a step closer to Lucien, his eyes fully gold as he glares at the agitator.

Lucien chuckles before his head tilts slightly. Bending over, he picks up a small bundle of fabric beside him, a small glint in his eyes as he smooths it out in his hands. My bra.

“That's mine.” I reach my hand out for him to hand it to me.

He raises a brow, a dark glint in his eyes. “You don’t believe in finders keepers?”

Jace pushes forward, his teeth bared as he reaches for Lucien.

Lucien takes a slow step to the side, dodging, just as I push my magic into my runes, fortifying my strength and placing an arm in front of Jace to stop his movements.

I reach my other hand toward Lucien, my eyes narrowed. He sighs before slowly placing the bra into my hand. My finger brushes briefly across his wrist when I close my hand, a shiver working its way down my spine from the contact.

I look at his face, a heated glint consuming his eyes for one brief second before he turns away, quickly pulling himself back to his normal languid look.

“Another time," he whispers, an unreadable look appearing and disappearing in his dark eyes.

A deep growl rolls out beside me. I place my hand on Jace’s chest and look into his golden eyes. I give him a small smile and take a step toward him, trying to calm his beast.
