Ady smiled at other guests as they made their rounds around the room. Her pussy still ached from the rough taking that occurred earlier, before the party. She gripped Jaggar’s arm tight in her hand as they strolled around.

This was a night for them to relax before leaving to go in search of their mate together. Jaggar was dressed in a black suit, with a black button-down shirt. She was dressed in a sassy red dress that flowed around her, mid-thigh. It was strapless, and hugged her breasts. She felt sexy, but couldn’t wait for Jaggar to strip it off of her later.

A growl rumbled deep within Jaggar, causing her eyes to fly up to his.

“You didn’t get enough earlier?” he murmured. His eyes deepened, causing her core to clench. The lovemaking between the two of them was explosive, and she knew that only after they completed their triad, would it be out of this world. Not that it wasn’t great with just the two of them, but Ady still had the ache in her chest for her other mate.

He, or she, was out there.

Ady only wished she had a clue that would pinpoint them to their mate.

“Every time we’re together, I want more,” she whispered. He drew her to him, letting his hand slide to her ass. She knew that he loved touching, kissing, and fucking her ass.

“Is that so?” he growled, nipping her on her ear. She giggled as he squeezed her ass in his hand. If only he would go a little lower, then he would be able to slide his hand underneath her short dress and meet the naked flesh of her ass. Her breath caught in her throat as she felt the attraction between the two of them grow.

“Jaggar! I see you were able to finally come up for air and join us at our celebration.” A deep baritone voice broke through her thoughts. Turning her head, she found a handsome man, with two blonde women attached to each of his arms.

“Colton. I wouldn’t miss this for the world,” Jaggar replied with a laugh as they both separated to hug each other, with healthy slaps on the backs. “Raven. Serni. It’s good to see you both again. Let me introduce you to Ady.”

Ady smiled as she shook the hands of the two, beautiful women, who both glowed. Ady beat down the twinge of jealousy, for she knew one day soon, that would be her. She couldn’t wait to have their triad complete.

“You are just as beautiful as I imagined Jaggar’s mate to be,” Colton murmured, taking her hand, placing a small kiss on the back of it. She was flattered, but he didn’t do anything for her.

“Thank you. You three make a beautiful triad. I’m sure your children will be just as gorgeous.”

The three of them beamed with pride at the mention of the babies. Ady leaned back against Jaggar as he and Colton struck up a conversation. Classical music filled the air as the crowd thickened. Every dragon shifter was invited to this party. It wasn’t that often that a clan leader got to announce that his son’s triad was producing not just one, but two, babies. It was a time to rejoice, and everyone at the party was in a celebratory mood.

A smile graced Ady’s lips as she gazed around the room. Her eyes took in the other guests who were having a great time. Her smile slowly faded as the hairs on her arms stood at attention.

“What’s wrong?” Jaggar murmured against the top of her head. She glanced up to see the look of concern on his face.

“Nothing,” she replied. He must have felt her body grow tense, so she relaxed her muscles. He went back to his conversation with Colton, and her eyes flew back to the crowd.

Her dragon was searching. She tried to remain calm as her body became aware of someone else in the room.

“Mate,” her dragon hissed.

Ady recognized the familiar twinges in her gut, and felt Jaggar tense when he noticed too.

Their other mate was here!

“Do you feel it?” Jaggar murmured as Colton and his two mates waved before moving on.

“I didn’t want to cut your conversation short with your friend, but I feel our mate is here. They’re sad and tired. I think the curse is trying to—”

“We won’t let that happen. You’re able to feel their emotions?” he asked, looking down at her. She nodded her head as a shiver rolled down her spine. Someone had eyes on her, and it wasn’t Jaggar. Her animal liked this person, and they couldn’t be anyone else but their mate. “What is it?”

Jaggar kept his hands on her as she turned around. His hand braced against her belly and pulled her back against him. Her nipples drew into tight buds as they pushed against her dress.

“Our mate is here.” She groaned as he settled his chin on her shoulder.

“We’ll welcome our mate tonight then. If they have their eyes on us, then let’s show them what he or she has been missing.” His warm breath caressed her ear as his hand slid along her stomach to cup her aching mound in his hand. She bit her lip and held back a moan as she searched the room. They remained off in the corner, near a door, but she knew the person was watching them.

Her eyes finally connected with a set of lust filled eyes that weren’t missing anything.

“I see her,” Ady breathed as he slid her one perky mound free. Jaggar massaged her aching breast in his large hand. “The tall woman with the curly dark hair. She’s coming toward us now.”

“I see her too,” he growled in Ady’s ear. The party faded away from Ady’s sight. She only had eyes for their mate, who was making her way to them. She felt Jaggar slide his free hand beneath her dress. She smiled as his finger parted her slippery folds and massaged her swollen clit. She had been waiting for the chance, and now was the perfect time.

In front of their mate.

Neither Jaggar, or Ady, would care if someone did turn an eye to them. Right now, all that mattered was that their mate was watching them.

She came to stand in front of them, blocking the sight of Ady from the crowd. Her eyes locked on Jaggar before sliding over to Ady. She licked her lips as her eyes traveled down to the sight of Jaggar’s hand beneath Ady’s dress.

“Welcome, mate.” Ady gasped as he increased his pace on her clit. She instantly felt when the missing link fell into place in her heart. She rode Jaggar’s hand while her eyes locked with their mate’s. “I’m Ady. He’s Jaggar, and we’ve been waiting for you.”

“I’m Lini. I knew I would find you here.”

“Come with us, Lini,” Jaggar growled.

“I thought you’d never ask.”
