“Step away from her. She can’t think for herself with you touching her.”
Madeline’s warmth left her back, leaving Sabrina chilled and exposed before the powerful Alpha. She lowered her eyes and sank to her knees on the plush moss. With a pounding heart, she turned her neck to expose her throat to him. Usually she fought humbling herself before a male, but he was different. His essence invaded her heart and soul, her very bones, as if he were made for her. Only now she had to convince him that she belonged. “Greetings Nicholas of the Amber Moon pride.”
His voice came out in an angry growl. “Little cat, why did you expose my mate to danger?”
Madeline quickly spoke up, “Nick, she—”
“Quiet.” His order left no room for argument as his power rolled through their alcove. “I need her to tell me why she led you to a group of hunters. Why she risked your life.”
“I’m sorry,” Sabrina whispered and fisted her hands together at her sides. She struggled to put her thoughts into words. The reasoning that seemed so sound at the time now seemed foolish. “Madeline is stronger than me. If I’d just run through the forest she would have found me. I had to know if she was brave enough, smart enough to track me to the campsite.”
“I can find no fault with that, but why did you make so much noise? You could have gotten her killed.”
Rough hands gripped her shoulders and lifted her to her feet. He smelled fantastic, and even as her heart raced with fear, her body grew full and heavy with desire. She kept her eyes on his lips as she confessed her failure. “I didn’t know how hard her power would hit me, how...intense it would be. I’ve never bonded before. I thought I knew, but I didn’t.” She met his gaze and struggled to hold it when she’d rather rub her cheek against his body and cover herself in his scent. “I had no idea it would be like this.”
“Like what?”
“Like coming home.”
She heard Madeline’s purr before the softness of the other woman pushed against her back. Her lips tickled along the skin of her neck as Madeline asked, “Isn’t she beautiful?” She leaned her weight against Sabrina until Nick’s erection pressed against her belly. “She tastes like sugar and musk.”
Nick shook his head but the small lines around his eyes deepened with a suppressed smile. Sabrina felt Madeline’s flash of triumph, but her attention was drawn back to the wonderful sensation of being pressed between them. The way their fragrances mingled and joined with hers, creating a perfume unique to the three of them. “I suppose you want to keep her?”
“Oh yes.”
He brushed a thumb over her cheek, making her skin tingle and flush beneath his touch. “What about you, Sabrina? Do you want to be kept?”
“Please.” It wasn’t the eloquent speech she had always fantasized about giving when she finally met her mates, but that one word held all of her hope, all of her yearning. Madeline rocked against her back and the sensation of her full breasts against her brought another rush of liquid heat between her thighs.
“Here is my proposal then. I will bond with you, but I want your agreement that we will not do a full soul mating until you have lived with us for a year and we are all certain.” Madeline grumbled behind her back, but he didn’t waver. “I know she isn’t like Chloe, she has a decent and gentle soul, but I want to be sure that this is what we all want.”
“Who’s Chloe?” Jealousy skittered through her heart and she tried to turn to face Madeline.
“A mistake.” Madeline tightened her hold and sorrow moved through their psychic link.
His deep voice rumbled through his chest and seemed to vibrate into her bones as he said, “When we were newly mated, Madeline was manipulated into joining with a female Beta named Chloe. She used Madeline’s open heart against her and convinced her that they were meant to be.” He reached over her shoulder and stroked Madeline’s head. “She never had any intention of being Beta. Her goal was to work her way into my bed and kill Madeline, becoming my Alpha female. It was the only way she would ever become an Alpha. She was very skilled at hiding her true emotions from Madeline. Chloe tampered with our car in an attempt to kill her. She knew Madeline likes to drive fast and would have lost control of the Corvette.” His lips pressed into a humorless line. “There wouldn’t have been enough of her left in one piece to regenerate.”
“That’s horrible!” Sabrina squirmed around and embraced Madeline. “Oh honey, I’m so sorry.” The depth of Chloe’s betrayal stunned her. Even though they had only been bonded for a matter of hours, Sabrina could never imagine doing anything to hurt the other woman.
Nick squeezed them both against his chest with a deep rumble in his throat. The sound soothed her and Madeline’s breath come out in a warm sigh. Sabrina had no idea how long they stood that way, taking comfort in the mutual embrace, before she became aware of the sexual heat building between them.
Madeline lifted her head from Sabrina’s shoulder and stepped back with a wicked grin. “Nick, I can feel your approval. Stop tormenting her and prove that you can satisfy her.”
Chapter Four
Madeline backed away with a sultry sway to her hips and Sabrina reached out for her. Shaking her head, Madeline smiled and reclined on the bed of moss. “I want to watch.”
Sabrina took a hesitant step toward her, grateful Nick didn’t try to hold her back. While her body burned to be filled by him, and her inner cat couldn’t wait to see what the magnificent male had to offer, she needed to know how Madeline felt. “Are you sure? I don’t want you to feel, you know, left out.”
Nick chuckled behind her and Madeline smiled. “Silly girl. I’ll feel everything you’re feeling.” She stretched and ran her hands over her breasts, tweaking the dark rose nipples until they stood, hard and swollen. “I get the visual feast of watching two of the most beautiful people in the world having sex while being able to feel it, too. Trust me when I say that for me, it doesn’t get any better than that.”
Nick nuzzled the side of Sabrina’s neck and whispered in her ear, “Open yourself up to her, feel the truth of her words. My Madeline loves to watch.”
She shivered at the brush of his beard against her neck and on the other side of the alcove, Madeline shivered as well. His hands skimmed down the sides of her ribs, smoothing over her lower stomach and he pressed his fingers into the hollow of her hipbones. Madeline squirmed and shifted her hips as if trying to get imaginary fingers to touch her in the same place
He traced his fingers over her belly, leaving a trail of arousal in his wake. A big hand easily cupped her entire breast, and she leaned back into him, delighting in his strength. Safe, I feel so safe with him. A thumb ran over the erect peak of her nipple and she moaned. Her breasts had always been sensitive, almost as much as her clit.
His voice penetrated the sexual haze he created for her. “Sabrina?”
“Hmm?”
“If you ever put Madeline in danger like that again, I’m going to spank you until you can’t walk.”
She hissed and pressed herself against him until his hard cock nestled between her butt cheeks.
“She likes that,” Madeline said in a breathless voice. “A lot.”
“Really?” His voice was a rumbling purr. “Do you, Sabrina? Do you like to be spanked?”
A blush heated her cheeks and she nodded.
“I didn’t hear you.”
Trying to swallow past the sudden lump in her throat, she trembled against him. Pain was a spice she enjoyed with her lovemaking, and the thought of his big hand spanking her until she burned made her clit swell until it ached in time with the beat of her heart. “Yes.”
“Oh, we are going to have such fun with her,” Madeline said and Sabrina moaned as a wave of the other woman’s arousal hit her.
He spun her around and cupped her face with his hands. She stood on her tiptoes, offering herself to him. Slowly, as if to torture her, he lowered his mouth to hers until their lips barely brushed. Electricity sparked between them and they both shud
dered. His cock jumped against her belly as his magic washed through her. She opened her mind, her soul to him and lost herself in his kiss.
Firm and demanding, he took everything she had to offer and gave back more. He tasted like sex and magic with a faint hint of Madeline’s essence. She ran her fingers through the crisp hair on his chest and melted into his embrace.
Their cats paced and snarled around each other as he sucked on her lower lip. Another surge of arousal from Madeline had her knees giving out. He cupped his hands beneath her bottom and lifted her until her legs wrapped around his waist, the head of his cock rubbing between her swollen and slippery labia.
She tore her mouth from his with a gasp and licked along his shoulder, tasting his skin and delighting in how he twitched beneath her tongue. His body was a work of art, muscles to make a sculptor weep in envy. She knew from her shared memories with Madeline what drove him crazy and she eagerly ground herself against him until the fat mushroom head of his cock scrapped over her clit.
“Fuck,” he groaned and thrust against her.
Her nipples brushed along his skin as she placed her palms on his shoulders and lifted herself over him so that when she lowered herself, his thick shaft would fill her. Moving as if they had done it a thousand times, he positioned his cock against her swollen entrance. With a self-control that took all of her concentration, she slowly sank onto his erection, closing her eyes to savor the sensation of being stretched.
She had to relax her body to take him, and even then it hurt. That edge of pain made her tighten around him and he bit the side of her neck. In her mind, his big cat did the same to hers, biting the back of her neck in a dominant hold as old as time. Her cat relaxed into his grip and their images turned hazy as their energies mixed.
She clung to him as he gripped her bottom and moved her. Madeline gave a low moan and their connection allowed Sabrina to feel the other woman’s rapidly approaching orgasm. The rush of desire amazed her, overwhelming her in the best possible way. She had no idea how good it would be. Emotions and satisfaction beyond even her wildest fantasies filled her heart and spirit. This is a pleasure I would kill for.
Still moving inside of her, Nick walked them over to where Madeline reclined on the moss and lowered her to the ground without breaking contact. His voice sent an erotic thrill through her as he said, “Kiss her while I take her.”
Lying on her side, Madeline stroked Sabrina’s breasts with the tip of her nail. She leaned forward and gave Sabrina the warmest of kisses, all pillowy lips and gentle strokes, such a marked contrast to the restrained violence of Nick moving in her, she had the sensation of floating between them.
He wrapped her legs around his waist and began to thrust in earnest, shifting his hips until he stroked over her G-Spot. She moaned her approval into Madeline’s mouth, cupping her heavy breasts in her hands. Madeline returned the favor by playing with her nipples until she trembled on the brink of orgasm.
Time ceased to matter as her body tightened to the point of pain. A roaring sound filled her head and she realized it was her screaming her pleasure into the air. Sharp teeth bit the very tip of her nipple and she exploded. The world went black then white as her body snapped in time with the contractions, gripping Nick’s fantastic cock while she screamed.
Madeline joined her, caught up in her orgasm and feeding her back with one of her own. Through their bond, their pleasure melded until she didn’t know where she ended and Madeline began. A new power joined theirs, one with a masculine edge whose orgasm was different, but just as intense.
Together, they curled into a heap of twitching limbs and groans as aftershocks moved through them. The post-orgasmic delight would almost leave her body then another wave of pleasure would move through her from Madeline or Nick and set delicious fire to her overworked nerves all over again.
Nick pulled Madeline on top of him and hugged Sabrina close to his side. Their breathing evened out and a blanket of love embraced her as surely as Nick’s arm. She snuggled closer to them, content and happy.
Madeline stirred first, leaning up on her elbows on Nick’s broad chest. “Can I keep her?”
Nick laughed and placed a kiss on Sabrina’s forehead. “Yes, and remind me to send Madame Evangeline a fruit basket.”
“A fruit basket?” Sabrina gave him a mock glare. “I think we owe her a cruise around the world.”
Madeline laughed and Nick nipped at the side of Sabrina’s neck. “Well, maybe a basket of chocolate and a new car.”
Madeline wriggled her hips against him and Sabrina purred at the mutual desire shared through their connection. Nick shifted his body with a husky rumble. “Thank the Goddess we found you, Sabrina. Without your help Madeline might have fucked me into an early grave.”
Sabrina’s giggle turned to a moan and she felt the echo of Madeline’s pleasure as she slid his now fully erect cock inside of her. Madeline hadn’t been kidding. It did feel like Nick moved inside of her as she watched him fill Madeline. With a happy sigh, she abandoned herself to the decadent pleasures of her new mates.
Chapter Five
Early the next morning, they stumbled out of the forest together, Sabrina’s limbs heavy with exhaustion and her pussy aching from the sexual marathon she’d experienced. Nick had been right. Madeline would have killed him with her sexual appetite. The woman was insatiable and Sabrina loved every minute of it.
“Not too much further to the truck.” Madeline took a deep breath of the morning air with a broad smile as she spoke.
Nick shot her a sour look. “Madeline’s a morning person.”
“Gah.” Sabrina frowned. “Is it too late to back out of the bond?”
“Hey now!’ Madeline gave her butt a brisk slap and a flush of desire made Sabrina’s nipples pebble in the warm morning air, something that should be physically impossible after their sexual marathon.
Nick grabbed both their hands, putting them on either side of him as they walked. “Please, can we just make it to the truck first?”
Madeline fluttered her lashes at him while Sabrina snickered. “Yes, but only because I’m starving.”
Sabrina glanced down at her naked body, complete with love bites and very swollen nipples. “What about our clothes?”
Nick’s thumb stroked over her palm. “Ben, one of our pack members, retrieved them last night.” He must have felt her distress because he added, “He’s been watching over our vehicles for us, and I had him on hand just in case things didn’t work out.”
Madeline snorted, “What he means by that is, in case you turned out to be another psycho bitch, we have Ben on hand to help bury your body. But instead, he’s going to drive your car to the hotel so you can’t run away from us.”
Sabrina snapped her fingers. “Damn, there goes my chance for freedom.”
“Yep, you’re stuck with us now.” Nick teased. “And we’re not letting you go.”
Joy blossomed in her soul and a reflection of it echoed through their connection. Over time they would learn to close off their link so they could have privacy, but right then the path was wide open. To be honest, she didn’t want to be closed off from them yet. Surrounding herself in their love was everything she had ever wanted.
They reached the gravel-covered parking area where her sporty blue convertible sat next to a forest green Hummer. A few other cars were in the lot, but covered with undisturbed dew. She sniffed the air more out of habit than anything else and wrinkled her nose at the foul odor.
“What is that smell?”
Nick took a deep breath then made a hacking sound. “I don’t know, but it smells horrible. Like rotten eggs and shit.”
“Such a poet,” Madeline muttered and wrinkled her nose.
A strange woman’s voice rang out over the parking lot. “It’s cover scent, you fucking moron.” A second later a pretty blond with hair in braids that hung on either side of her heart-shaped face strode out from behind the Hummer. In her hands she held a double-barrel shotgun pointed st
raight at them. Her dark jeans were covered in dirt, her pink blouse worn and ripped in several places.
Nick froze, and fear mixed with fury rushed through their connection. Hurt mixed with burning anger blasted from Madeline. Sabrina moaned in pain and abruptly the sensation vanished. Evidently, Nick already knew how to close off their bond.
“Chloe,” Madeline growled in disgust.
Sabrina lifted her lip in a snarl at the blond woman. “The bitch who tried to kill you?”
“One and the same,” Nick replied in a bored tone. “What do you want?”
Chloe took another step forward, the whites of her eyes showing as she stared at them with hatred. “When you threw me out of the pride, you destroyed me! I’m labeled as a traitor and no pride will have me. I’m all alone and it’s all your fucking fault!”
“Madeline and Sabrina have nothing to do with this. I’m the one that kicked you out. Leave them alone.” He tried to free himself from Sabrina’s hand but she held on while Madeline did the same. He shot them both a warning look, but they ignored him and continued to silently snarl at Chloe.
The barrel of the shotgun dipped toward the ground as Chloe yelled, “I should have been your Alpha! If you had just given me a chance it could have been so good between us. But Madeline stood in the way. She didn’t want to share you. I knew if she was gone you could finally be with me.”
“Over my dead body, you crazy bitch!” Madeline lunged, but Nick jerked her back.
Sabrina remained silent. If Nick and Madeline could keep distracting her, she might have a chance to attack Chloe before she got a shot off. She wished she knew what kind of ammunition the shotgun held. Undoubtedly silver, but if it was buckshot, it could spray all of them with enough pellets to kill them.
Nick clamped his hand around her wrist and ground her bones together until she dropped to her knees in pain. He lowered his shields enough so she could feel his anger, but no fear. Instead, a sense of anticipation filled her mind. Confused, she lowered her head in a sign of submission.
