Magick from both Raven and Denn swept through him, seeking and searching for the other. Denn pulled out, bringing Jake’s hips with him so when he slammed back all three of them cried out. Magick entwined and wrapped around Jake completely, loosening the last of his resistance. Heat built in his balls and he knew he couldn’t hold it back. On the next deep thrust his orgasm exploded and Raven cried out in ecstasy as he emptied inside her. The magick burned hot, his vision blurred and he rode out the pleasure until Denn too gave into the need and slumped across his back.

When he opened his eyes he looked into Raven’s eyes, watching him.

“Are you okay, babe?” She looked so serious for a minute he thought—

“I love you. I love you both,” she cried.

Chapter Eight

Raven sat in the sun, letting the heat seep through to her tired muscles. She’d come to love the courtyard as her favorite place in the house. While the entire place glowed with historical charm it was this area that she felt most at peace. She’d lost track after the fourth time either Jake or Denn or both had awoken her with their dark cravings and deep kisses. Once she’d been woken by just the two of them enjoying each other. The sight of them loving each other moved her deeply. Two sensual male bodies expressing their emotions through a powerful show of lust and sex. A smile played across her lips at the memory.

Yesterday she’d found herself alone on the streets of New Orleans not afraid, just alone again. What a difference twenty-four hours can make. She’d thought she could turn to the voodoo priestess for help and had foolishly planned to handle Scott on her own.

Wait. She sat up and looked around. The voodoo priestess.

Raven jumped up and ran to the bathroom where she’d removed her clothes last night. Rifling through her discarded jeans, she found the roll of parchment she’d completely forgotten about until now. Unrolling the brittle, yellowed paper, she read through the note inside.

Be warned.

If each sibling has not found their mate by the youngest brother’s thirtieth birthday, then all power is stripped and bequeathed to the eldest family male.

All hope will be lost…

Surprised by what she read on the note, her butt hit the toilet seat hard as she sank down. She needed to tell Denn about this. She didn’t know how long they had but she imagined it wasn’t long. Hadn’t Jake mentioned something a few weeks ago about Denn’s big birthday coming up?

She rushed from the bathroom back into the bedroom suite they had given her. Pulling up short, she laughed as she looked around the room. They had filled her space with books, flowers, a large wardrobe, a big screen television with more channels than any one person could possibly need, and luxurious linens on a lake-sized bed. Linens that were currently wrapped partially around two beautiful, sexy men that were now all hers. For someone who had technically been held against her will they had really pampered her with everything.

Shaking her head, she focused on why she’d come running in here. Taking the remaining strides to the bed as quickly as she could, she grabbed their legs.

“Denn. Jake. Wake up.”

Both men sprang from the bed, ready for whatever danger she could have been warning them about. Except they were naked and sleek and tousled from sleep.

“What is it? What’s wrong?” Denn’s voice sounded alarmed and urgent.

“Calm down. No one’s in danger, at least for the moment.”

“What do you mean for the moment?” Denn scrubbed his fingers over his face.

“I have something you need to read, Denn. It’s about your family.” She reached her hand out in front of her to reveal the rolled up parchment resting in her palm.

“What’s this?” He reached out and took the paper from her. “Where did it come from?”

“The voodoo priestess gave it to me yesterday. Severina. Said the time had come for you to have it. I had completely forgotten about it until about ten minutes ago when I was sitting in the courtyard.”

Denn unrolled it to read and Jake moved closer to read over his shoulder. Raven watched them both as the worry lines rose on Denn’s forehead and Jake whistled a deep and low melody.

Denn looked at her. “What else did the woman say when she gave you this?”

“Nothing. Just that it was time.”

“Well, I’d say so.” His shoulders sagged. “Noah and I will be thirty in just thirteen days.”

In the kitchen fixing some breakfast, Raven watched Jake fidget and fuss with the dishes and the silverware, then the food and the napkins.

“What’s wrong, Jake?”

He turned away, avoiding her eyes. “Nothing.”

Denn’s head snapped up from his laptop, narrowing his eyes at Jake as well. Something was up, she could feel it. Her magick was already tingling with the sense of it. Denn’s power had stirred as well.

“Jake. Tell us what’s wrong. We can both sense it, so you might as well just say it. Raven isn’t likely to leave you alone until you do.”

“Hey.”

Denn laughed off her protest. Jake, on the other hand, frowned deeper. Denn shut his laptop and stood, walking over to the other man. “I think you should tell us. Whatever it is, we’ll deal with it together.”

“I’m worried about my sister.”

“We all are, Jake, that’s why I’ve been working together with my brothers to come up with a plan. We are trying to contact Noah as well as devise a scenario to free your sister without anyone getting hurt. I have faith in my brothers and their ability to work the magick in their favor.”

“We need to take Scott down,” Raven insisted.

“In due time. If we go for him now, there’s a good chance we’ll fail. We’ll be ready soon. Just as soon as we get Noah here.”

Jake shook his head. “You don’t understand. I told you that the bastard was stealing her magick, but I didn’t tell
