Chapter One
Kyra
“I love it when you lick me.”
Jynn lifted his head from between my thighs. “You don’t have to whisper. Out here you can make noise – like you used to.”
He sounded so hopeful, I forced myself to give a little cry. I’d been stifling my responses for so long it was hard to let go the way I did back on the Luna.
He closed his lips over my clit, flicking his tongue back and forth. Sweet Goddess, he was good! I panted, whipping my head from side to side.
“Yes. Yes. Oh yes yes yes!
“That sounds more like our mate,” Jax growled. “Move aside, brother, and let me have my turn at her.”
Jynn slid up my body. “With pleasure. I’ll wager I can make her scream again before you even get started, just by doing this.”
I moaned as he transferred his mouth to my left nipple.
“I could do better if I didn’t have a branch trying to fuck me in the ass right now,” Jax griped. “I still don’t understand why we have to come out to the woods to pleasure our mate when we have a perfectly comfortable bed in the house.” He reached back, broke off the offending branch, then met my eyes just before he bent his head. “I hunger for the taste of you.” His eyes were dark with lust, his voice low and rough.
My pussy clenched, sending a delicious shiver through me.
He rammed his tongue into me, and I gasped. “Please, no more. I can’t…”
I tried to push his head away, but Jynn grabbed my wrists, trapping them over my head. “Oh, no, little mate, you know better. You’ll take what we give you – for as long as we choose to give it.”
“Yes, my lord.” Saying the words, acknowledging my submission, always gives me a thrill. My mates are masterful lovers, taking me to heights of passion I never dreamed existed before I met them.
Jynn had brought me to an intense orgasm, and my clit was still throbbing when Jax started licking it, teasing and tantalizing. Knowing I was powerless to stop him, that either brother could do whatever he wanted to me, ramped up the heat building inside me to an inferno. By the time he dipped his tongue into my pussy again, I trembled with need. I closed my eyes and gave in to the wild sensations pouring through me.
“Look at me.” He shifted, balancing over me with his powerful arms planted on either side of my body. “I love watching your eyes glaze over with lust when I slide my cock into you. Tell me how it feels.”
I’m not a person who discusses sexual matters openly, so the twins enjoy making me talk dirty during sex. Though I’d never admit it to them, I’m beginning to like it. Talking about their hot hard cocks filling my tight pussy turns me on. And telling them how much I love it when they play with my ass makes me feel deliciously naughty.
“You’re rubbing the head of your cock around my pussy lips. It’s so smooth and hot. I want you to give it to me. Oh, you’re sliding it into me now, inch by inch, making me look at you the whole time. Your eyes are dark and demanding, and I feel a little shiver of fear. Oooh it’s too big, stretching me, filling me. I swear I can’t take any more… no no oh…oh yeah… Yeah, baby, give it to me. Fuck me good!”
I dissolved into moans and gasps as he moved in and out. The moans became wordless cries when he picked up the pace, driving us both higher and higher. His body tightened all over, then he rammed his cock deep as it cock pulsed inside me. His cum was laden with gyron, a mix of pheromones and chemicals unique to Tharan males that drives their mates wild. The gyron poured through me, triggered a mind-blowing orgasm that sent me into orbit.
I opened my eyes to find both my mates grinning at me. “We love making you come,” Jynn said. “With the Bond, we can experience your orgasm as if it is our own. But hearing you scream adds to the pleasure.”
“I’m sorry, my darlings. I know I’ve been acting different ever since Ceres came to live with us. You like it when I talk dirty and make noise, and Goddess knows I love it when I can be that free. But I don’t want Ceres to hear me, especially when you’re spanking my bottom. I think she’s too young to understand how something that sounds painful can be an erotic thrill. Besides, I don’t think it’s proper to discuss the details of our sex life with her, even if she did see more than anyone her age should have seen when she was back in the Arena. I’m not comfortable talking about sex as openly as you Tharans do.”
I opened my arms to draw both of them into a hug.
Jax shook out the blanket we’d carried into the woods. I helped him fold it and the three of us headed back to our cozy house.
I loved both of my mates, far more than I ever dreamed I could love anyone. After years of loneliness, Jynn and Jax had not only fulfilled my erotic fantasies with wild nights of passion, they gave me their unconditional love and a real home, complete with a ready-made family.
And that was the problem. When Chancellor Kal, ruler of Tharon, gave his permission for us to adopt Ceres, the slave girl who helped us escape from the Arena on Tanis Major, I became the mother of a young girl nearing womanhood. I found myself looking at everything in a different light, especially my sexual relationship with my mates.
Jax and Jynn were wonderful fathers. They showered Ceres with love, treating her as if she were their own child instead of an alien. But they were also males, and when their gyron flowed, they became wild, savage lovers who wanted an uninhibited response from their chosen mate.
I couldn’t very well scream in ecstasy when our daughter was sleeping right down the hall. With the lusty habits of my warrior twins, I’d have kept the girl up for hours every night. So I started stifling my responses. Muffling my cries, biting a fistful of covers instead of moaning.
I tried to be especially careful not to do anything that might give my mates a reason to discipline me. She’d definitely hear those stern smacks on my bare bottom, along with my shrieks of protest that usually turned into cries of passion. Ceres wa
s at an impressionable age, quickly becoming a woman, but in my opinion still too young to understand how a grown female could accept being disciplined by her mates – and love it.
I remember being shocked and a little embarrassed when I first met Chancellor Kal’s mate, Soraya. She spoke frankly about getting spanked by her own mates.
“Though I’d been pledged to the twins who would one day become the rulers of Tharon since the day I was born, I met Kal and Khaz for the first time at our Mating ceremony,” she told me.
“In those days, arranged marriages were common,” she explained. “I was an only child, and my fathers spoiled me. I’d never even been spanked by them when I disobeyed a rule. I don’t mind telling you, I had quite a time getting used to the idea of being a submissive Mate with two dominant males issuing orders and making rules for me to follow. Those first few years, I got spanked and punished on a regular basis!” She gave a little laugh. “Although I had no trouble getting used to the considerable advantages of having two virile young males sharing my bed every night.”
She must have sensed my discomfort at discussing sexual matters so openly. “I don’t know anything about Earther customs,” she said, “but you’ll find we Tharans celebrate our sexuality, as well as honoring our world’s age-old tradition of a submissive female deferring to a pair of dominant Mates.”
She led me to a bench, and we sat down. “I’ve heard how you kept the pirates at bay and protected the other hostages on the Luna. And about your brave solo mission to rescue those who were missing after your rescue. You’ve had to be strong, and, as a strong female, you may find yourself wanting to rebel from time to time against what you see as unreasonable restrictions your Mates put on you.”
“Allow an old woman to give you some advice, my dear. At those times, remember one thing – submission isn’t a sign of weakness. What our males don’t realize is that true submission requires incredible strength. Choosing to surrender our will to theirs is a gift we give to them. We do it to honor the sacrifices they’ve made and the burden they’ve taken on to cherish and protect and care for us.”
She fell silent, gazing off into the distance, and I saw a tear in the corner of her eye. “Tharon is a place of breathtaking natural wonders, but it harbors great dangers as well. Your Mates will not hesitate to give up their lives for you – as I discovered the day Khaz stepped between me and a wild zipher. It charged out of the woods when the three of us were strolling at the edge of the forest beyond the city. He fought the huge creature off with his bare hands. Kal drew his knife and leaped into the fray. Between them, they managed to kill the beast, but Khaz had been badly gored. Kal picked him up, and we ran back to the city. My darling Khaz died in his brother’s arms before we made it.”
“My Lady! I am so sorry for your loss.”
“Thank you, my dear.” She patted my hand. “That was a long time ago. Fortunately, in their wisdom, our Tharan ancestors established the custom of having two males care for one female, with both of them acting as fathers to the offspring. I lost Khaz, but I’m thankful every day that while he was alive I honored his love for me with the gift of my submission.”
She brushed the tear from her eye and leaned forward with a tiny smile. “They never knew it, but just between you and me, there were times I deliberately chose not to be submissive. I made sure it was always over some minor thing. If you haven’t already discovered it, getting a gyron-filled bare-bottom spanking from two strong males can end up being very enjoyable.”
She made her point with such vivid detail, I still recalled word for word what she said. But I didn’t think I could handle a conversation like that with the ease Soraya showed, and I didn’t want Ceres to get the idea that being sexually aroused by a lover was something shameful.
Feeling guilty about disappointing my mates lately, I reopened the conversation as we headed back to the house.
“My darlings, I know this adjustment has been hard for you. Being thrust into parenting a teenager without the years of practice you’d have had if we’d started out with a baby of our own. I appreciate the fact that you’ve respected my need to change the way I respond when we’re having sex at home. And I’d like to show you how much it means to me by doing something special for you. So here’s my offer…” I gave them a naughty grin. “I’ll come out to the wood with you anytime you want. I’ll even bend over willingly and lift my skirt if you want to smack my bottom.”
“Okay. Let’s start right now.” Jynn grabbed me around the waist and deposited me face-down over a moss-covered log then yanked my skirt up to my waist. Tharan females didn’t wear underwear, so my naked butt was on full display.
I let out a squeal as his hand came down on my bottom with a playful whack that echoed through the forest. “No!”
“No?” He smacked me again, hard enough to carry a sting. “You are not allowed to say no to your mates while you’re being spanked.”
“I’m sorry, my lord. My response was poorly chosen. I meant no disrespect. I’ve learned the rules that govern a Tharan mate. Truly I have. You don’t need to remind me of them.”
My protest didn’t deter him.
He smacked me again, hard enough to work the gryon on his palm into the tender skin of my rear cheeks. Though I’d been spanked by them before, I never got used to the shocking sting of the first real whack, followed by the bolt of heat from their pheromones rocketing through my core. Even though both twins had brought me to mind-blowing orgasms, my body responded instinctively to Jynn’s gyron, ramping my arousal back up as high as it had been only a short time ago.
“Aaah! Please, my lord…”
He gave me another firm whack. “Please what? Please make you scream again? With pleasure.”
He slid two fingers deep into my pussy, pumping in and out until I was grinding my hips back to meet each thrust, filling the silence of the woods with breathless moans. When I dissolved into a shuddering climax, he scooped me into his arms.
“Yes, my love. Those are the cries we miss hearing.”
I cupped his cheek and reached out to grasp Jax’s hand, pulling him in. “My darlings. You are my world, and I love everything you do to me. I know you miss having me act like a wanton slut when we’re alone together, but I’m just trying to be a good parent to Ceres. I don’t remember my own mother. The only role models I have are the ones in the books I read when I was growing up.
“They were always warm and loving. In my favorite books, they created special memories for their children with…”
I stopped, choosing my next words carefully. The subject I wanted to broach was so important, I’d hesitated to bring it up for weeks now.
“Speaking of creating special memories, on Earth we have days of festivity, like you do here on Tharon. The date of one of them is coming up soon. Would you mind if I prepared a little celebration for our family in honor of my favorite human holiday?”
“Of course not. That which brings you joy is our joy as well, my love,” Jax replied, taking the hand I’d put in his and bringing it to his lips for a kiss.
“What does your day of festivity celebrate? An important victory in battle? Perhaps an interstellar treaty?” Always the more curious twin, Jynn was fascinated whenever I spoke of my life as a child back on Earth. Even with our Bond, I don’t think he realized I seldom mentioned it because most of the memories were unhappy ones.
“Not an interstellar treaty. It’s more of a global event. We celebrate the natal day of a Holy One who came to Earth to show us the path to peace and goodwill toward all humankind. It’s called Christmas.”
“Christmas. How do you celebrate?”
“We have so many traditions!” I sounded like I really knew what I was talking about, even though I’d only experienced them in books and in my imagination. “Special food, decorations, songs – and the exchange of gifts as symbols of our affection for those we love.”
“I enjoy gifts,” Jax said. “Both the giving and t
he receiving of them.”
“People bring in a tree from the forest and hang lights and tokens on it. Handmade decorations they save from year to year that carry special memories. And there’s a tradition just for the children – Santa Claus. He’s a mythical old man who goes from house to house bringing toys to good boys and girls on Christmas Eve.
“I’ve always wanted to have a real Christmas. But the Institute frowned on what they considered outdated celebrations, fearing they’d spoil us,” I admitted. “We’d have a bigger meal than usual and afterward some of the older kids sang carols they remembered, but we never had a tree. And I never got a present,” I added.
When I realized I sounded like a wistful little girl, I squared my shoulders. “But now I’m a grown-up. A parent. And if you’ll agree to help, I’d like us to make special memories with Ceres. I’m sure she’s never had a Christmas either.”
“Then we’ll do it,” Jynn declared. “We’ll have it all, right, Brother? We’ll find the biggest tree in the forest and drag it home. We’ll sing songs and have a feast.”
Jax nodded. “Our family will celebrate the first Tharan Christmas.”
Chapter Two
Jax
Our mate was so excited she chattered nonstop all the way home. “Oh, and cookies! We’ll bake cookies and decorate them.” Her face fell. “I just realized – I have no idea how to bake Christmas cookies. I’ll have to get hold of Cass and Saige and see if either one of them has a recipe. Maybe they could come over and help. We could have a cookie decorating party…and then hang them on the tree!”
This Christmas celebration means a lot to our mate. Kyra was so excited she never noticed my brother’s silent message.
Yes it does, I responded. It’s good to see her so happy. The ability to communicate without speaking aloud was one advantage of the essence we shared as Tharan twins. Like the Bond uniting us with our mate, our shared essence allowed me to know my brother’s thoughts.
