Dragon's Den

by Trinity Blacio

  Lissa laughed and turned to her. “Thank you, Suzanne. I've never felt so in control, like a piece of me is back.”

  Nodding, she glanced around the room. “Well, let's clean this place up. Della, lock that door. We don't need any other surprises while we get rid of this mess.” Suzanne glanced out the back door that led into the gardens.

  There is no one there. You can dispose of the bodies just outside the door. The men will clean it up when they get here, and Suzanne—

  Suzanne glanced over her shoulder to Andrew.

  I am very impressed. Not once did you freeze. Where did you learn to fight, and with a sword?

  Suzanne laughed, as she dragged the first body outside. I trained for more than five years after I got free from the Bloods. I was bound and determined not to let any man ever hurt me again.

  Andrew bowed before her. The fighting is over. All have been destroyed, but I'm afraid you have four very angry mates on their way. Suzanne, I'm proud to call you daughter. Andrew disappeared as she placed the last body outside, and locked the door again.

  Tonya and Lissa had buckets of hot water and were wiping down the counters, and Della handed Suzanne a mop. “I take it they're on the way back?” Della asked, studying her.

  “Yes, and they are furious, needless to say.” Suzanne dipped her mop into the bucket and started to scrub the floor.

  “Your movements were much faster than before. You're one of them now, aren't you?” Della asked, and all eyes turned to her.

  “Yes, I was changed last night. Dominic thought he could take it slow. Well, it didn't work out that way. Needless to say, I'm totally in their world now. Does that bother you, Della?”

  She studied her friend, who finally shook her head. “No, not all. I just want you happy, Suzanne. Out of all the girls there, you took the worst, always protecting the rest of us. You were the strongest among us. You fought while the rest of us wanted to give up.”

  Suzanne smiled. “I couldn't give up, Della. I knew there was someone out there waiting for me. Now if you would have told me I had four men waiting for me, I would have knocked you out, but I couldn't give up.”

  The kitchen door opened up, and she knew her men had come into the room with the others. The room was quiet. Dominic strolled around each of them and checked to make sure no one was hurt. He glanced out the door, saw the bodies piled outside, and snarled.

  “What the hell did you think you were doing, Suzanne? You could have been killed, along with your friends. They touched you, and you touched them.”

  Archer took the mop out of her hands. Stephan stood over Lissa, Anthony behind Tonya, and Alex behind Della.

  She sighed. “Dominic, I wasn't about to let these men go into the main room with all those ladies with their guns. If we could disarm them, I knew we could take them. All of us are trained to fight and protect ourselves. As for touching them, it was the only way I could think of to disarm them. I mean, this is a sex club. What better excuse?”

  Stephan stepped forward. “You knew Lissa was in no shape to confront this kind of violence, but you allowed her to participate in this ruse!”

  Lissa grabbed Stephan and twirled him around. “Don't you dare yell at her! She told me to say back, but I refused. I need to do this Stephan, to take back part of me. You know I'm trained, you trained me. I won't have you upset at Suzanne when she is the one who broke through the shell I had created around me. Now, not another word!” she yelled, and stomped her foot.

  “Damn it, Lissa, you've seen enough violence. You didn't need to see this.” Stephan grumbled, and pulled her into his arms.

  “Stephan, I needed to believe in myself again, and Suzanne gave that to me. Please understand.” She laid her head on his chest and Stephan relaxed.

  “I think I'm going to lock you in your bedroom when we get home,” he grumbled.

  Suzanne knew he was still furious with her, but didn't say anything. Blair stepped up to her and swept her up into his arms. “Blair…” She rested her head on his chest.

  “Not another word, Suzanne. We're all so furious right now, the thought of one of those men putting one scratch on you makes my blood boil. Then to let them touch you1 Don't you think we knew the minute his hands were on you? If they weren't dead right now, I'd rip them to shreds.” Blair carried her out of the main room, and up the stairs towards Dominic's apartment. All her males followed behind, not saying a word.

  Dominic stepped up, and opened the door. “I can smell their scent on you.” Smoke came out of his nose as they made their way to the master bedroom. Blair lowered her feet to the ground, ripped her dress off her body, and threw it into the fireplace. Dominic roared, and flames shot out of his mouth, incinerating her dress instantly.

  “Go take a shower, Suzanne, and wash that stench off you,” Dominic ordered, not looking at her. If he even glanced at her right now he would take her hard, and he wouldn't risk hurting her. He could feel her gaze on him, and her confusion.

  He glanced at Blair, who stood next to him, his body tense, the dragon close to the surface. Before he knew what he was doing, he jumped on Blair and threw him to the floor. “No talk, Blair, need you.” He unzipped his pants and pulled Blair's pants off of his body. He used his own spit to wet his cock before he slammed his cock into Blair's ass.

  Granger had Archer on the floor next to them and grunted as he pounded into Archer's ass.

  His seed spilled into Blair's ass, but it still wasn't enough. It wouldn't be enough for any of them until they claimed Suzanne again. Dominic turned his gaze to the bathroom, and heard Suzanne crying in the shower. He gently opened the connection to her mind, and sank to the ground next to Blair.

  Suzanne believed they didn't want her, because of what she had done, how she used her body. She felt dirty and cheap.

  Dominic stood and walked into the bathroom, turning the water off. He swept Suzanne into his arms. “Hush, Suzanne, I'm here, and I'm not going anywhere.” He strolled into the bedroom and gently placed her onto the bed. “I'm very proud of what you did today, Suzanne, but I'm also furious that you had to do it. You shouldn't have been put in that kind of danger, but I'm afraid that with what's coming, we're going to see more and more of it.” He cleaned his cock with the rag Blair handed him.

  “We all need you, Suzanne, now, before we leave. It's going too hard and fast, and our dragons are demanding we claim you again to erase all memories of those men.” He crawled up on the bed, and lay down next to her as he pulled her onto his body. “I see in your mind what you did, and I still can't believe how fast and powerful you are, my Little Red.”

  Blair scooted behind them, and gently lubed her ass. “We're going to take you together. First Blair and I, then Granger and Archer. When we're done, there will be no questions as to who you belong to, Suzanne.” He spread her ass cheeks and watched the play of emotions as Blair slowly pushed his cock into her ass.

  “Take him all the way. Squeeze him, show him how you belong to him, to all of us,” Dominic ordered, and worked his cock into her pussy. Suzanne was so tight. Her little cries of passion only encouraged him to move into her pussy faster.

  Granger and Archer moved to each side of the bed, petting and encouraging her as he and Blair started to move inside her. His hands turned to claws, he held her hips, and he snarled, pushing in harder and faster. Blair's dragon responded, doing the same.

  Suzanne moaned, her nails digging into his shoulders as she bit down on his neck feeding from him. Dominic snapped and his cock swelled larger inside her, as did Blair's. They loved their mate, claiming her as theirs. He brushed her hair aside from her neck and sank his fangs into her neck.

  She screamed, releasing him. Her body shook, while her orgasm took over. He pumped once, twice more into her, and released his seed into her pussy. Blair grunted behind them, and he could feel his warm seed flow into her ass.

  Her body fell onto his chest, and her breath came in small quick gasps. She slowly came down from her sexual high. Suzanne kis
sed his nipple, and peeked up at him. “Umm, amazing.”

  He laughed and rolled her over to her side. Blair pulled out of her ass. “It's not over, baby. You have two other mates who need you. Blair and I are going to get cleaned up. We love you, Suzanne.” He softly kissed her lips and jumped off the bed.

  Blair leaned down, capturing her face in between his hands. “You're ours, baby, and we'll never let you go.” He kissed her softly and strolled into the bathroom with him.

  Dominic turned on the shower heads and stood underneath them. “My dragon is so calm now. Even before, he was worried about Suzanne, but after seeing her fight and how strong inside she is, he is at peace.” He glanced at Blair, who stood under the other shower head.

  “Mine feels the same way, but I believe Suzanne still has doubts about being good enough for us. After not having anyone believing in you for so long, it's no wonder she's unsure about us, and herself.”

  Dominic nodded. “I'm afraid you're right. We'll just have to make sure we show her every day, and I, for one, love showing her.” He grinned and Blair laughed.

  “She is a treasure, and I love digging for it.” Blair's eyes glowed and he turned his head towards the bedroom. “But if one more male touches her, I swear, Dominic, I'll rip them apart. Did you see the Bloods’ bodies outside? I don't know how her friend could even handle them after all they did to them.” He turned to him. “I want to hunt for Lance before we leave. I have this strange feeling he's around here, watching.” He got out of the shower and dried off.

  “I was feeling the same way. Your brothers and others are still searching the club. Someone had to let those men in here, and I want to know who,” Dominic said as he walked into the bedroom, and laughed as Suzanne tried to stand and fell back onto the bed.

  “Having trouble, Little Red?” Dominic teased, only to see her face brighten, and she sighed.

  “I hate to admit it, but you four—wow. Even my legs feel like spaghetti noodles.” She laughed and turned to Archer. “Did you find those two men that were missing earlier, Caser and what's-his-name?”

  Archer shook his head. “It has me worried. We went to their rooms, and all was cleared out. There was no trace of them.”

  Dominic glanced at Blair, who nodded. “It seems we now know how they got in. Did they access to all the security codes?”

  Dominic slammed his fist into the wall. “Every one except mine, so they could be hiding anywhere, including the tunnels.”

  Suzanne rushed to his side and cradled his hand in hers, checking it. “Dominic, you'll find them. There is no reason to beat yourself up. How could you have known?” She cupped his cheek and reached up, kissing his lips.

  “Because of my trust, you could have been hurt, Suzanne.” He wrapped his arms around her and held her. “I never want to feel the terror I felt when I saw you walk into that kitchen. I almost fell to the ground. I couldn't concentrate, I was so furious.”

  She leaned back and frowned. “But I thought I blocked all of you so I wouldn't distract you.”

  Blair laughed and swatted her ass. “Sweetheart, you can't totally block us. We'll always be inside, watching you and protecting you in any way we can. We have company at the door, Dominic.” Blair slid on a clean pair of white leather pants and a vest while Suzanne stood there staring at him.

  “If you keep staring at him like that, he's going to take you again, and right now we don't have time.” Dominic scraped his fangs along her neck.

  “I'm sorry. I ruined the dress you got me, Dominic. I really like that one too, especially the way it made you look at me in it.” Suzanne turned, and opened the closet. “Son of a bitch!” she screamed, and jumped back.

  Dominic pushed her behind him, and he roared. “How the hell did they get in here? And why kill their own spies?” He glanced back at Granger. “Let Anthony and his brother in. Also call down to Alex and have him come up with Blair's brothers. I want every inch of my quarters searched now.” Dominic stepped into the closet and grabbed the black dress and shoes for Suzanne.

  “Come here, baby. Let's get you dressed before we have all these men in here.” Dominic slid the dress over her body and unbuttoned the top four buttons. “Have to be able to see a little of what is mine.” He tweaked her nipple.

  Suzanne smiled but she still was nervous. “I'll be okay, Dominic. I know you're worried, but I can handle this.”

  “I know you can, but I'm going to have Archer pack your things, Little Red. I don't want you in the closet for now. Come on, let's go down to the parlor and greet our guest.” He wrapped his arm around her waist, and nodded to Archer, who started packing their belongings for their trip.

  Blair walked beside them as they entered the room. More than twenty men stood with Tonya, Della, and Lissa in the corner by the bar, talking. “Go join your friends, Little Red.” Dominic kissed her cheek.

  He watched every warrior bow his head to her as she walked past them. Stephan stepped in front of her, and Dominic forced himself not to move. One wrong word and he would pound him into the wall.

  “I would like to apologize to you for earlier. I was out of line, yelling at you. I now see the good it did in Lissa, and how you protected our people. Thank you, my queen.” Stephan bowed to her and Suzanne laughed.

  “Stephan, stop it. I'm no queen, and you're welcome.” She went to hug him but stopped, staring back at him, and he grinned.

  “But Suzanne, you are our queen now. You are not only bonded to the king, but you have proven your loyalty to our people. Why do you think every warrior in this room bowed to you?” Stephan smirked and raised an eyebrow at her.

  Suzanne glanced around the room at the warriors, who all smiled and bowed their heads again. “No freaking way! I can't be a queen, Dominic.” Her gaze fell to his, and he moved to her side.

  “It's okay, Suzanne. You'll get used to it, and you're a perfect queen. I wouldn't have anyone else.” He kissed her lips softly.

  “But Dominic I can't…my past.” She grabbed onto his shirt and buried her face into his chest.

  “I don't want to hear any more about you not being good enough, Suzanne. You're mine, and I couldn't have picked a more perfect mate. You care all about those around you, and you're fierce when you know someone needs help. Who could be better then you?” He lifted her face to stare down into her eyes. “I told you they would love you. They see what we see, that you are a special lady. Ours.” He kissed her mouth, hard and possessive.

  “Now go. Your friends are about to burst with wanting to talk to you.” He laughed as he broke the kiss and swatted her ass as he turned her towards them. “Thank you, Stephan. May I have a word with you, please?” Dominic rejoined the group of warriors.

  “I'm taking Anthony, his beta, and Blair's brothers, and I'd like you and Lissa to journey with us on our trip. I believe Lissa would enjoy the trip, and it would be good for her to be around Suzanne.”

  Stephan stopped and turned to his sister. “You're right. It would be good. Sitting at home to only think about what happened would only set her back. We would be honored to escort you on your trip.”

  “Good. I know Lissa has no clothes here, and either does Tonya, so I've called a few of the store owners and they are sending clothes, shoes. and coats to the plane so they both have clothes.” Dominic turned to Alex. “Alex, I know I'm asking a lot, but I'm leaving you in charge here, and I expect you'll take good care of Suzanne's friend while we're gone.” He grinned, knowing full well Suzanne had been right. Della was Alex's companion.

  Alex bowed and smirked. “I believe our queen has another gift.” He shook his head. “How she knew Della would be my companion is beyond me, but I can promise nothing will happen to her. Even if I have to put her over my knee.” He snarled and glanced at Della, who ignored him.

  Dominic laughed. “You have your hands full with that one. She is a powerhouse, and a skillful warrior in her own right, but tread lightly, my friend, as I have found out there are still deep wounds in all three of t
hem that are going to take time to heal.”

  “I'm afraid you're right about that. If I ever find that creep who took her from her home…Did you know it was her own brother? I don't know how someone could turn on their own family.” Alex shook his head.

  “I don't know how a family member can be so cruel, but I'm sure you'll do fine. I'm leaving the rest of my guards in your care. I've also called the clans I trust and they are preparing.” He turned and glanced around the room. “I want five of you to go through our bedroom and leave nothing unturned. Find out how those men got into our room, but I'm warning you now, don't upset Suzanne's personal things. She's had enough taken from her.”

  He turned to Blair. “Blair, what have you heard from your father?”

  “Father believes it's Christopher's brother behind all the attacks and the uprising. Christopher hasn't been able to locate him or the group he has following him, but he is aware of what his brother has done.” Blair sighed. “He's issued a reward.”
