«Keepers of the Night» by Nikki McCoy

Through the aftermath of one Gods lust for power, three men must find the courage to love and forgive if they are to survive the ruthless schemes of a Goddess bent on revenge. Malen and Turek thought they had found completion when they found each other. Despite the pain of their pasts, they were able to form a bond built on trust and forged in faith. When the call came to once again rise up against the cruelty of Mikel, the son of Death, they were among the first to answer-to battle alongside their friends and defend their race. It was when Mikels reign of terror had been brought to an end, however, that their true battle began. Xilonen was a man on the edge of desperation. Throughout his tortured life, he'd dreamt about finding and pleasing his mate. But when the time finally came and he met the two men destined to be his for all eternity, his dreams were brought to a shattering halt. Forced to betray his Gods, his kind, and his mates, Xilonen went on the run. But soon he found that he alone could not protect his brother, Shayne, from the cunning plans of their mother, the Goddess of Night. He needed strength, guidance and courage. He needed Malen and Turek. Now they must find it within themselves to move past the pain of betrayal and lies to the love and faith that could bind their hearts. But will they find it in time to stop Night from stripping Shayne of what she had so heartlessly taken from Xilonen…his innocence? Reader Advisory: This story is best read in sequence as part of a series but can be a standalone and contains scenes of light bondage and BDSM, and has one scene of dubious consent.
