All In (The Drift Book 2)

by Susan Hayes

  The vid was better than she expected, given it had been made in a different century. She let herself be drawn into the story, despite the two temptations floating on either side of her. For now, she was content to enjoy the moment, and apparently so were they. Their patience meant more to her than she could ever express. They were giving her the one thing she needed: control. Whatever happened between them, it would only happen if, and when, she said it could.

  When the moment did come, she already knew what her answer would be. She was done denying her desires and hiding behind the wall she had built around her heart. Tonight, Jaeger wasn’t the only one inspired to take chances.

  It was almost the mid-point of the movie before anything happened, and when it did, it was Toro who made the first move. He removed his arm from around her waist and stroked his fingers up the curve of her spine. It was a whisper-soft caress that sent a flurry of goose flesh chasing across her back. When he reached the nape of her neck, he didn’t stop; he simply reversed direction and retraced the same path. By the third pass, she had lost all interest in the vid.

  She tingled everywhere Toro touched her and even places he hadn’t. Anticipation built slowly, fanning the flames of her desires until she was quivering beneath his hands, and her clit was throbbing with the pounding of her heart.

  Toro drew her closer and nuzzled her ear, his breath fanning over her skin. “I’m going to ask for your permission now, Cyn.”

  Befuddled by her overloaded senses, it took her a moment to be able to focus enough to answer him. “You already have my permission to kiss me.”

  “That’s not what I’m asking permission for. Not this time.”

  On her other side, Jaeger shifted, turning toward her. He didn’t say a word, but there was such fire burning in his eyes that he didn’t need to speak. She knew what they were asking. What they wanted from her.

  “Say it, Toro. Tell me what you want from me.”

  “I want you, Cyn. All of you. I want to see every naked inch of you and find out how many times we can make you come before this night has to end.”

  Her heart stuttered then started beating at twice the speed it had before. “Yes,” she murmured. “You have my permission.”

  “Thank you,” Jaeger said. He closed the distance between them to kiss her as Toro began nibbling on her earlobe, murmuring her name in worshipful tones. Somewhere in the distance, the movie reached a dramatic turning point as one of the lead characters declared, “I love it when a plan comes together.”

  All three of them laughed, and at that moment, she knew she had made the right choice. This was where she was supposed to be.

  Jaeger’s laughter was still buzzing against her lips as he kissed her again, his tongue teasing at the seam of her mouth until she let him inside. She speared her fingers into his hair, holding him to her as she let their tongues dance. Toro let himself drift until he was behind her as he continued to nibble and suck on her ear and the tender skin of her throat. He snaked an arm around her waist and pulled himself in tight, letting her feel the hard ridge of his cock as it pressed against her back.

  She moaned, and both men reacted to the sound. They trapped her between them, stroking and kissing every inch of her body they could reach. A calloused hand stroked up her bare thigh, the roughened edges heightening every moment of anticipation as the fingers worked their way ever higher. It had to be Toro’s hand on her thigh; his fingers were roughened by hours of training and lifting weights. Her theory was confirmed when Toro brushed his mouth to her ear.

  “I love the lace, but it’s time for it to go,” he whispered.

  His fingers caught hold of her panties and tore them away, the lace shredding like paper. He let them drift away, a scrap of scarlet vanishing into the darkness.

  “Remind me to find those before we leave, or we’ll have a lot of explaining to do, later,” she said as she watched them disappear.

  “I’ll take care of it,” Toro promised. His thick fingers moved along the curve of her hip to her waist, then across her stomach before moving down. Her breath caught in her throat as he zeroed in on his target, his fingertips grazing over her mound until he found the slick lips of her pussy.

  “You’re already wet for us,” he murmured, his voice lowering to a husky rumble.

  Jaeger reached between their bodies, stroking her breast briefly before sliding a hand beneath her skirt to test her wetness for himself. He slid a finger into her folds and groaned. “I bet you taste delicious, but I need to know for sure.”

  He kissed her again, nipping at her lower lip as he moved away. The lack of gravity made it necessary for them to move slowly and carefully to avoid sending all three of them tumbling out of control. Not that control was something she had much of at the moment, and judging by the harsh breathing and heated looks she was getting from her lovers, they weren’t exactly cool and calm, either. The three of them were more like shooting stars, streaking across the sky in a fiery blaze of need.

  Toro eased his hand out from between her thighs, stroking her clit lightly as he withdrew. The contact made her gasp, and before she could catch another breath, his hands were on her breasts, fingers teasing her nipples through the thin fabric of her top.

  “No bra. Good. That’s one less barrier between me and having you naked,” Toro muttered. He had her shirt tugged over her head within seconds, only keeping his hands off of her for as long as it took to tuck her shirt into the bag that drifted nearby. Jaeger's hands were busy, too. He undid the clasp of her skirt, sliding it over her hips and down her legs with urgent, uneven tugs that spoke to his level of need, which started the three of them spinning.

  He cursed under his breath and grabbed hold of the bag, slowing their tumble as he tucked her skirt inside. He stripped his shirt off next, and Cynder’s gaze automatically fell on the spot where he had been stabbed only a few days before. There wasn’t anything left but a faint scar. He didn’t put the shirt away. Instead, he wrapped the cloth around Cyn’s ankle before attaching it to the rope. “Now one of us is tethered.”

  She tugged at the knot a few times. “That’ll work. Next time, though, I vote I get to tie one of you up…or maybe both of you.”

  His eyes lit up like a solar flare. “Any time you want me tied up and at your mercy, Cyn, all you have to do is ask.”

  “Same here, sugar,” Toro added.

  “We’ll put that on the list, then,” she said, slightly amazed that she was already thinking ahead to the next time.

  “A list. Yeah, we’re going to need a list,” Toro agreed, his voice full of approval at the idea.

  Before she could respond to Toro, Jaeger tugged her legs apart and buried his face into her pussy, and all the air left her lungs. There were no gentle, teasing touches or tentative caresses. He devoured her, his tongue working at her clit with long, eager strokes as his fingers parted her folds, giving him better access. She closed her legs around his head and crossed her ankles, locking the two of them together.

  Toro shifted positions again, drawing her around so he could kiss her before releasing her slowly to shed his clothes. She watched as he stripped, revealing a body of sculpted muscle and power. Every lash of Jaeger’s tongue took her closer to her breaking point, and by the time Toro was naked, she was bucking against Jaeger’s mouth.

  Toro squared away his clothes and caught hold of her hand, drawing her in close. His cock brushed her hip, and she wrapped her free hand around it, barely able to span its girth with her fingers. Toro groaned at her touch, his own hands busy toying with her breasts. The three of them began a slow dance, finding their rhythm and falling into synch with each other’s pleasure.

  When her orgasm came, it unfurled gradually, lifting her into a high orbit before finally launching her into a realm of pure pleasure. She loosened her legs and Jaeger withdrew, only to ease his way up her body to lay waste to her mouth with another spectacular kiss.

  “We need you,” Jaeger whispered against her lips.

 
; “You can have me,” she replied, meaning it with every ounce of her being. There were no more walls between the three of them. No more barriers to what they wanted.

  The next thing she knew, she was being positioned between them so that she was straddling Toro’s waist with Jaeger drifting beside her. Toro’s hands were at her waist, and she twined her legs around him to lock the two of them together. She could feel the hard length of his cock pressed against her folds, and every part of her ached with the need to have him inside her. Their gazes locked, and she found herself lost in the dark heat of Toro’s eyes as he reached between them and positioned himself to claim her.

  “This is only the beginning,” he told her as he rocked his hips, sending the thick head of his cock into her body.

  He was big enough that he could have hurt her, but he didn’t. He moved with painstaking care, letting her body adjust to him as he eased himself in deeper. He moved so slowly that by the time he was buried inside her she was ready for more. Veth, not only ready but eager. She needed him to move, and when he didn’t, she rocked her body against his and flexed her inner walls around him.

  His eyes rolled back, and he groaned aloud. “No more slow, got it.”

  He ground out the words as his fingers tightened their grip on her hips. Despite his words, his next thrust was almost as slow as the first one, but it was still enough to make her moan as his cock slid over nerve endings that hadn’t been awakened in years. Soon they had established a give and take that kept them more or less stable while still giving both of them what they needed. Not wanting to leave Jaeger out, she caught his hand in hers and drew him closer. He still hadn’t removed his pants, and she laughed as she undid them for him.

  “If I’m naked, you’re naked,” she told him.

  “Yes ma’am,” he replied with a laughing salute.

  One day she would ask them both about their time as soldiers. The idea of outranking them both somehow appealed to her. That was a conversation for another time and place, though.

  He stripped off his pants, but before he could put them with the rest of their clothes Cynder pulled him in close and nuzzled her lips to the tip of his cock. The moment she made contact, he appeared to forget what he was about to do and let his clothing float off to join her panties somewhere in the dark.

  His cock twitched and thickened in her mouth as she took him deeper, Jaeger’s guttural groans telling her he was enjoying every second. She wrapped an arm around his upper thigh, and he gripped her shoulder, the three of them forming an erotic motif that wouldn’t have been possible anywhere else. Time slowed, and the world beyond their perfect bubble faded into the background of her mind. Every breath brought new sensations and pleasures. Every touch triggered another round of gasps and moans as they lost themselves in each other.

  Toro’s body stiffened beneath her as his release started to overtake him, and he groaned her name as his steady thrusts became erratic and wild. His cock thickened in the seconds before he came, and the added friction sent her tumbling into another orgasm. Her senses were still reeling when Jaeger’s hand touched her cheek, a warning that he too, was nearing his end. She rode out the last waves of her release as she hollowed her cheeks, determined to break Jaeger’s control before her pleasure ended.

  He shouted, his voice echoing off the walls as she took him to the back of her throat. He arched his back and came hard, pouring his salty essence into her mouth as he joined them in bliss.

  None of them spoke or moved at first. As if no one wanted to be the one to shatter the moment they had just shared. They were tumbling slowly, their final, frantic movements would have sent them spiraling out of control if not for the fact she was still tethered to the catwalk below.

  “Do you think they’d notice if we kept you here for a few days?” Jaeger asked.

  “Maybe a week?” Toro added.

  Cynder released Jaeger from her mouth but didn’t unhook her arm from his thigh. She wasn’t ready to let go of him completely. Not yet. “I think a lot of people would notice. For starters, you’ve got a fight coming up in a few days, T. Not to mention that at some point, someone will wander in here to take care of the plants. If we give some poor corporate lackey a heart attack, I’m going to feel bad. Plus, Astek will probably fine us or something for interfering with their workforce.”

  Toro snickered. “Good point. Can you imagine the paperwork on that? Besides, as glorious as you look right now, Cyn, I’m not keen on anyone else seeing you this way.”

  Jaeger’s eyes darkened at the thought. “You’re right, T. No one else gets to see our woman like this.”

  Cynder cocked a brow and stared at Jaeger. “Our woman?”

  “Aren’t you?” he retorted.

  Toro stroked her hip. “I think you are. I mean, you’re a woman, and you’re with us, aren’t you? I sure as hell hope you’re with us. I meant what I said. I want this to be the beginning for us.”

  She nodded. “I’m with you. It might be a little early to be thumping your chests and utterly words like ours, though.” She blew out a breath and decided to be honest. “I haven’t been with anyone since I was freed. Not until the two of you.”

  Toro withdrew from her body and pulled himself around to her left side and cradled her close, while Jaeger shook free of her hold and reoriented himself so he was on her other side.

  “No one else?” Jaeger asked.

  She shook her head, feeling vulnerable after her confession.

  “Then we’re the two luckiest men in the galaxy. Maybe even the whole fraxxing universe.” Toro placed a tender kiss on her forehead. “I’m glad it was us.”

  “So am I. If you need us to take this a day at a time, that’s what we’ll do. Make no mistake, though, whether I say it aloud or not, I’m still going to be thinking it. You’re ours, Cynder Armas.”

  “Are you sure you aren’t programmed for leadership, Dice? You certainly sound bossy enough.”

  “You know, I’ve always wondered about that myself,” Toro said with a soft chuckle.

  “So we’re clear on this ours thing. It works both ways. If I’m yours, then you are both mine.”

  They both nodded, looking downright smug.

  “If you want us all to yourself, Cyn, you’ve got us. No one else could compete with you, anyway. Why would we bother looking?” Jaeger asked.

  “You’re all I’ve wanted since I watched you fight the first night we met. There’s not going to be anyone else.”

  A sense of warmth and satisfaction filled her heart, spilling over until she felt like she was damned near glowing. “In that case, I think we’re officially…something. Not sure what we are just yet, but we’re something more than friends.”

  “We’re a work in progress, that’s what we are,” Jaeger declared.

  She liked the way that sounded.

  The three of them broke apart and started hunting for their drifting and discarded clothing. It took a few minutes to gather up everything before they returned to the catwalk to dress. As her lovers each slung a bag over one shoulder, she took their hands and started leading them out of the atrium.

  “Where to now? I’m not ready for this night to end,” Toro said.

  “To my place. I believe you mentioned finding out how many times I could come before the night was over. According to my watch, morning is a long time off, which means you still have work to do.” If she was going to do this, then she was going to go all the way. That meant letting them into her life, her home, and maybe, if she had the courage, her heart.

  CHAPTER TEN

  Toro left the ring with his arms in the air and a grin on his face. He had won another fight, which made him two for two since making his debut three weeks ago. He was on the winning streak of his life, and so far there was no end in sight. The crowd liked him, which meant heavier bets and a bigger purse at the end of the night. Even more importantly, Cynder had woven herself into his life, becoming the best part of his days and nights. She spent time with both of them,
together and separately, and he treasured the moments they were together. He felt as if he had found his place at last, both as a fighter and as a man.

  He had discovered he enjoyed working as club security, too. It wasn’t the same intense rush as fighting, but it gave him something to do between bouts. It also paid decently, and he had added the scrip to the ever-growing amount in the bank account he shared with Jaeger. They were both putting money aside. They hadn’t spoken about why. They didn’t need to. They were saving up for a future they had barely dared to dream of before finding the Nova Club. They were making a life for themselves here, one they both hoped included Cynder.

  One of the staff members was stationed at the door, and he opened it for Toro with a nod and a grin. “Great fight, Toro.”

  Toro nodded. “Thanks.” He left the noise and crush of the crowd behind, but he couldn’t leave his thoughts about Cynder behind so easily. So far, they were taking their relationship one day at a time, but Toro had never been one for slow and steady progress. He knew what he wanted: Cynder, in his life and his bed for the rest of his days. It was getting harder for him to stay quiet and give her the space she wanted. The three of them made so much sense, at least to him. Something was holding her back, though. In fact, the last few days he felt like she was retreating behind the walls he hadn’t seen since they’d first arrived. Something had changed, and it wasn’t for the better. He snarled as frustration surged through him, and he lashed out at the nearest wall, denting the metal.

  “You know, most people are in a much better mood after they kick ass the way you just did. Something bothering you, T?”

  His head snapped around. “Has anyone mentioned how disturbing it is to have someone pop out of the shadows the way you do?” he asked. He hadn’t gotten used to Cynder’s uncanny ability to move without making a sound. She could melt into the shadows in a blink of an eye, then reappear on the other side of the room a moment later.

  “It drives Kit crazy. He’s threatened to tie a bell around my neck if I don’t stop sneaking up on him. You, don’t change the subject. You’re beating up my wall, and I want to know why.”
