Ethan leaned forward and pressed a tender kiss against her lips. “Shh, baby, it’s okay. We took care of it.”
“You did?” She glanced down to where their bodies joined.
He chuckled. “Well, you can’t see mine, but look over at Latan.”
She looked and felt relief when she saw the latex covering his cock. She turned back to Ethan. “Sorry, I didn’t see you put them on, and I was...”
“Shhh, it’s okay. We would never do anything to hurt or endanger you, baby, I promise.” He thrust his hips a few more times and then abruptly pulled out. He grinned down at her with a wicked glint in his eye. “Turn over and get on your hands and knees, baby. We both wanna play.”
* * * *
“Take off the condom, Latan. I want to taste you.”
Ethan watched as Tania slowly turned over and got up on her hands and knees. He’d been perfectly content with her on her back, but Latan had sent him a message through their link threatening to kick his ass if he didn’t let him play, too.
He watched his brother approach Tania’s face and then focused his attention on the gorgeous rear end in front of him. His hands tightened on her buttocks, his thumb tracing the lower crease of her ass. A single finger pressed against her anus, followed immediately by her groan and the clenching of her butt cheeks. Ethan chuckled. “Relax, baby. I’m not gonna do anything you don’t want. I’m just playing around right now, I promise.” He curved his hand over her bare flesh, stroking the fleshy globes again and again until she relaxed. He pushed with the tip of one finger until it slipped past the outer ring of muscle into the heat of the dark, forbidden entrance. “You’re so tight. It’s gonna be a little piece of heaven in here.” Ethan sighed, slapped her hard on one of her cheeks, and then laughed when she growled. “You’ve got a beautiful ass, baby, and I’m gonna fuck it someday.” He leaned down close to her ear. “Count on it!” He grinned when she mumbled, because her mouth was stuffed full of Latan’s cock.
Ethan aligned his erection with her pussy and thrust upward into her fiery warmth. He groaned when she squeezed his shaft with her inner walls and then slapped her ass again when he heard her muffled giggle. In one smooth move, he was buried balls deep. Grabbing her hips, he rode her hard, pumping back and forth. He pushed deeply, grinding his hips against her clit and then retreating in rough, jerky movements. Reaching below her, he grabbed her breast and began pinching and tugging on her nipple. She urged him on, pushing her hips back to meet his thrusts.
Tania pulled her mouth from Latan’s erection, her breath coming in shallow pants. “Harder, oh, please, fuck me harder, Ethan,” she cried before sucking Latan back inside.
Ethan responded by pounding into her like a freight train. “I’m not gonna last long,” he cried. His balls drew up tight against his body when he felt her muscles contract around his cock as she climaxed. He shuddered and thrashed as he came, shooting pulse after pulse of his semen into the latex protection. Spent, he fell forward onto the smooth skin of her back, listening as Latan growled out his own release. He couldn’t understand the feelings he had for this woman. Even sharing her with Latan, he felt as if they belonged together. Her scent didn’t identify her as his mate, but everything in his head and heart told him that they were meant to be together. What the hell is wrong with me? We’ve shared lots of women, and I’ve never felt like this before. I want something more with her, something more than sharing her with Latan. He glanced at his brother. What’s he gonna say when he finds out? Will she come between us?
Tania looked over her shoulder and grinned. “Okay, big guy. You’re a little heavy for me to support for too much longer.”
“God, I’m sorry, baby.” Ethan pulled away and froze at the voice sounding clearly in his head. It wasn’t his brother. It was his wolf! Mine!
* * * *
Latan breathed a sigh of relief as Ethan encouraged Tania to turn over. He thought he might explode if he didn’t feel the damp heat of her mouth soon. He’d nearly exploded when she said she wanted to taste him. He scooted over to kneel in front of her, his cock jutting up toward her face. She looked up at him with a wicked grin, reached out and ran her finger over the head of his cock, and then sucked the finger into her mouth.
“Hmmm, good,” she moaned.
He shook his head, smiling. “You are wicked, woman.” His hands pushed back her beautiful reddish hair so he could gaze into her bright, green eyes. He’d thought her beautiful, but the firelight made her positively glow. Latan leaned down and licked her lips, memorizing their taste and texture. “I wanna feel your lips around my cock,” he whispered. “Take me in your mouth. Will you do that, honey? Will you take me in and suck me dry?” He felt her body shudder and watched as her head descended to his shaft.
Tania flicked her tongue out and then dragged it slowly over the mushroom-shaped head of his cock, licking in a circle around the slit. A drop of pre-cum formed on the tip, quickly disappearing when she ran her tongue down in the slit with a teasing look in her eyes.
“Tease,” he whispered.
Tania winked up at him, the firelight reflected in those amazing green eyes. She opened her mouth and wrapped her lips around him, sucking the head of his cock and then running her tongue around the sensitive ridge at its base. Her body jolted back and forth from the force of Ethan’s thrusts when she suddenly pulled her mouth away from his throbbing erection and glanced back over her shoulder. “Harder, oh, please, fuck me harder, Ethan,” she cried.
Latan rubbed her cheek with the head of his cock, leaving behind a damp trail. “Suck me, Tania, please, honey,” he begged.
Gripping her fingers as far around the base of his erection as they would go, Tania leaned over, took him all the way to the back of her throat, and began sucking in earnest.
Latan threw back his head and closed his eyes. “I fucking love your mouth,” he groaned.
Tania sucked him deep while she reached out to fondle his balls. Her dainty hand squeezed gently, making his eyes roll back in his head.
“That’s it, honey, take me deep,” he cried. He grabbed the sides of her head and held her in place as he slid in and out of her mouth, matching the steady rhythm of Ethan as he thrust into her pussy harder and faster.
He came with a growl, his cock jerking in her mouth as his orgasm tore through his body like an explosion. His hips jerked, spurting thick ropes of semen over her tongue and down the back of her throat. He struggled to catch his breath as he watched her lick him clean and then chuckled when she looked over her shoulder and told Ethan to move.
Sated, Latan fell down beside her, cuddling up to her warm body. Shit, this feels so perfect. Like it’s where I’m meant to be. By now, Ethan and I are usually seeing who can get out the door first. So why is it I don’t wanna leave? He looked over at his brother. What would Ethan say if I asked him to step back and give me some time alone with Tania? I don’t wanna hurt him, but I’m beginning to think she just might be my mate!
“Hey, we never got to the wine,” Ethan exclaimed.
Tania giggled. “I don’t think I’m up for any wine now, guys. I’m wasted!”
Latan leaned down and nuzzled her neck. “Wasted, huh? Sounds like a pretty apt description to me.”
“You know,” Ethan continued, “as much as I love a romantic fire and all these cushy pillows, this floor is hard on the ass!”
Tania leaned up and looked down at the ass in question and smirked. “Well, we can’t be damaging anything as fine as those cheeks of yours. It just so happens, I have a nice, soft, warm bed not twenty feet away from here.”
“Sounds good to me,” Latan said as he jumped to his feet, pulling Tania up behind him.
“You guys lock up for me while I take a minute to clean up, and then I’ll join you in the bed.” She walked into the bathroom, closing the door behind her.
Ethan walked into the kitchen, pulled off his condom, and then ran some water on a paper towel to clean up. “Bro, I don’t wanna hurt you, but I’m d
eveloping some pretty strong feelings for Tania.”
Latan looked at his brother in amazement. “This can’t be good then because I have feelings for her, too! In fact, I think she may be my mate.” He watched his brother closely for his reaction.
Ethan frowned. “That doesn’t make any sense because my wolf’s telling me to claim her. He should know if she’s his mate or not.”
“What are we gonna do? Because I’m not backing off. I know I’m meant to be with her.” Latan looked at his brother for several long minutes. “Do you think that’s why we’ve always wanted to share our women? Were we meant to share a mate as well?”
“I never heard of two wolves mating the same female, have you?”
“No, but that doesn’t mean it can’t happen. Maybe we should talk to Remus.”
“Right, tell our Alpha, who already distrusts Tania, that we both want to mate her and bring her into the family.” He gave Latan a shrewd look. “You get right on that and get back to me with what he says!”
“All right, you’ve made your point. So, what do we do?” Latan asked.
Ethan crossed over to the bed and lay down on the far side. “We wait and see if our feelings get stronger, and we wait until this business with Kaugh is settled. At least then, Remus will know that she’s not involved in any of it.”
Latan climbed onto the other side of the bed, leaving the middle for Tania. “Sounds like a plan, bro!” He glanced around the room. “Hey, where do you think her cat is?”
Ethan leaned up on his elbow. “I don’t know, and it’s weird. Look around. There aren’t any food or water bowls here.”
Latan looked around the room. “Okay, so what does that mean?”
“It means that something’s not right with her precious cat, and I mean to find out what it is.”
Chapter 4
Vincent Kaugh stopped in front of the small cottage and looked out at the woods surrounding the clearing. The early morning sounds of the forest coming to life were soothing. The rise of excitement in him was getting harder and harder to contain as he moved closer to achieving his life’s goal. He glanced over to where his three associates waited beside the front door.
“So, what do you think, boss?” asked Marty.
“It’s perfect, Marty, absolutely perfect. Plenty of cover. Well isolated, and easy to defend. Absolutely perfect. Is the paperwork all done?” Kaugh was anxious to move forward with his project.
“It will be as soon as I deliver a cashier’s check for the full amount. The realtor called last night and said she would have everything ready after lunch today,” Marty answered.
Kaugh felt a rush of satisfaction. “We’ll go by the bank as soon as they open. I want you at her office by noon. The sooner we can move in, the better.” He turned his attention to Calvin Ames. “When we get back to town, I want you call the lab in California. Tell them I want my equipment packed up. Ask for David, he’ll know what I need. I want it here within the next two days, no excuses.” He took a couple of steps toward the house and turned back. “Tell him I want at least twenty vials of the Catalyn Inhibitor and two surgical setups.”
Stepping carefully through the weeds, Kaugh went and stood in front of the nearest window. “Sean, put bars on all the windows, and reinforce the doors on all the rooms upstairs and downstairs. I want double locks on both of the larger basement rooms and the bedroom that faces the creek. Get me some type of metal cots or hospital beds. I want two in each room downstairs and one in the back bedroom upstairs.” He gave the man a shrewd look. “I want them bolted to the floor, and they should be fitted with heavy, leather restraints. And, Sean, I want it done by Friday morning, no excuses.”
Sean grinned. “Any chance we’ll be entertaining that hot little redhead hanging around that architect’s office?”
“For God’s sake, Sean, keep it in your pants. Haven’t you learned your lesson yet?” Calvin asked. He looked over at Kaugh. “If you don’t mind me asking, how did you get started with these animal people?”
“Animal people.” Kaugh laughed. “I guess that’s as good a description as any. I was fresh out of college when I met Mark Landry. He ran the California lab until he was killed in a raid about sixteen years ago.” He walked over and sat down on the porch. “He was a fucking genius in so many ways, but an idiot when it came to security. He never told me how he first became aware of shape-shifters, but I strongly suspect it had something to do with his government funding. He was trying to mix the species together.”
“What the hell for?” asked Sean.
Kaugh shrugged. “My guess is that it was the government’s idea. They were looking to create a new breed, answerable only to them. Landry tried to combine the most fearsome of the shifters we knew about, to form one new species that had all the traits of both. The theory being it would be practically unstoppable, and at the beck and call of the US Government.” He laughed. “It didn’t work out that way, though.”
“What happened?” Marty asked.
“His first success at mixing the DNA of two shifters resulted in a less than fearsome creature.” He chuckled. “His disappointment is what got him killed. He got lax in his security, and one of the male test subjects escaped. I tried to get him to move our operations to a secure location, but he refused. He said the animal would be so grateful to finally be free it would run and never look back.”
“Okay, so it came back?” Marty crouched down and gazed into the doctor’s eyes.
“Oh, yeah, he came back all right,” Kaugh answered. “He came back and brought quite a few of his friends with him. They stormed the lab, freed all the subjects, and killed Landry. I barely escaped with my life.” He thought for a moment. “It was strange. He came back with friends, but not all the same species. The original escapee was Felidae, Puma concolor, otherwise known as a cougar or mountain lion. When he returned, he was accompanied by Canidae, Canis lupus.” He looked at his three associates. “In other words, gentlemen, wolves!”
“So how did you escape?” Calvin asked.
“Easily, my friend. I like to think I’m smarter than the average animal, even if that animal has a human side.”
“You think the bars and restraints can keep them from escaping this time?” Sean was beginning to look a little nervous.
“It’s not a problem anymore. I perfected a formula several years ago that, once injected, will keep the creatures from shifting. It can go either way, keep them from shifting into their animals, or keep the animals from shifting back to human.”
“Permanently?” asked Calvin.
“No, it’ll last about forty-eight hours without a second injection. It’s my practice to inject every twenty-four hours to keep them in whatever state I want.” He got to his feet. “Okay, we’ve wasted enough time here. Is everyone clear on what their jobs are for the next two days?” When everyone nodded, Kaugh headed for the car. “Well then, gentlemen, let’s go hunting!”
* * * *
Tania slowly became aware of the sun shining through the cabin window. She stretched lazily and then froze when her arm encountered warm skin. In a flash, the events of the night before flashed across her mind’s eye. Oh, God, they’re still here! What am I gonna do? I never should have let this happen. They make me feel things and want things that can’t be. Why couldn’t they have left while I was still sleeping? She almost snorted. Because, you dolt, you told them to stay, even invited them into your bed. What the hell were you thinking? She felt her beast stir close to the surface. She was sending her thoughts to Tania’s conscious mind. Oh, no, not now, you little traitor! Great, her animal half wanted to keep the big, bad wolves!
A large, calloused hand trailed down her arm. “I know you’re awake, baby,” Ethan whispered.
Tania yelped and jumped clear out of the bed. Her eyes narrowed when Ethan laughed. “You startled me.” She pulled the blanket off the bed, wrapped it around her nude body, and then glanced toward the open bathroom door. “Where’s Latan?”
Etha
n shrugged and sat up. The covers drifted down to his lap, revealing his broad chest and the light sprinkling of hair tapering down and disappearing beneath the covers. “He got paged on his cell about an hour ago and had to take off.” He grinned wickedly. “I told him I would stay here and keep you company.”
She was shaking her head before he even finished his statement. “No, you can’t stay.”
“Why not?” he asked with a grin, and started scooting toward the side of the bed.
“I mean it, Ethan, you have to go now. Last night was nice, but it was a mistake. I’m still not gonna be here for very long, and this relationship doesn’t have anywhere to go.” She looked away as he got to his feet, afraid of being tempted.
“Last night was more than just nice, and this relationship can go anywhere we want it to. You just have to believe.”
“I believe that last night should never have happened. No matter what kind of person you believe me to be, I can’t just be a plaything for the Alpha’s brothers.” Her voice rose as she fought her own desire and that of her inner beast. I have to get him to leave before I do something stupid, like knock him back into the bed!
“Plaything for the Alpha’s brothers,” he bellowed. Ethan rushed forward and grabbed Tania and then slung her over his shoulder as she squealed. He walked back to the bed, her ass thrust high in the air.
“Put me down, you big oaf,” she yelled, kicking her feet and pounding on his back. One stinging slap to the back of her thigh had her quieting down. “You hit me,” she said through gritted teeth.
“Damn right I did, and I’m about to hit you several more times. You’re gonna get your butt spanked for even thinking that we consider you a plaything.”
“You better not lay one hand on me, Ethan Wind River, or I’ll make you sorry you were ever born.”
