Blackwood Falls [Blackwood Falls] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour)

by Sarah Blake

  They had the same routine for the next week. Working and talking in the office in the morning after waking up and making love. Most mornings, Sarah woke to find one of her men’s handsome faces between her legs. One morning, before she woke, they had handcuffed her to the bed. Conner had licked her pussy that morning while Brax had fucked him. On an afternoon, she either went to the men to the ranch, getting to know the staff and animals. Or with Brax to meet the pack members and learn the workings of things. She was quickly falling in love with a horse named Mini at the ranch. She was named after her small size. Or she spent the afternoon cleaning the house and helping Conner if he stayed home looking over their personal investments and the stock market. They made love at least twice every night and Brax had been testing her limits in the playroom. Sarah found she loved the flogger and riding crop, but was still too scared to try the canes or whips. They men had taken her in all the pieces of equipment they had apart from the swing as it was made for Conner’s size and far too large for her. Tonight, they wouldn’t have much time to play as they were going out for dinner with the four sentinels and their mates. Sarah was looking forward to seeing them all, especially Brian and Kirstie. When the men left for the ranch that afternoon, Sarah drew herself a hot bubble bath after changing their bedding. When she was relaxing in the sunk-in tub big enough for four, she couldn’t help wondering why the men hadn’t told her they loved her yet. She wanted to let them know she loved them, but was afraid they didn’t feel the same. She decided she was being silly and reminded herself she had only known them for a few short weeks. The best few weeks in her life, she admitted to herself. She was for the first time in her life truly happy. After her extra-long soak, she shaved her legs and her pussy, then washed and conditioned her hair. After spending over an hour drying and styling her hair, she was finally happy with the result. It took her another hour to complete her makeup. She chose matching earrings and a necklace to go with her simple black dress. The V-neck dress came to her knees and tucked in her waist. She had to admit, when dressed, she loved her look and found herself feeling sexy for the first time in her life. Just as she was picking shoes for the night, the men came home and headed for the shower. When they spotted her in the closet, they were stunned. She had to threaten bodily harm on them when they came closer to her, wanting to do God only knew what to her. “I’ve spent all afternoon getting ready and if I let you two have your way, I will need to spend another hour sorting my hair out. And knowing the look in your eyes, this dress won’t stand a chance.” Laughing at their pouts as they left her alone to go shower, Sarah picked out a pair of silver, four-inch heels with matching purse.

  Sarah squirmed in the back seat of Conner’s Audi, trying to move the panties she had on away from her clit even though it was a useless mission. She cursed her two men when she thought back to just before they had left the house, but couldn’t help the moan of pleasure that she made thinking back to the moment. When the men had walked into the kitchen dressed to die for in suits, both tieless and top buttons of shirts open, they were both holding boxes, Conner’s a little larger than Brax’s. She couldn’t help but laugh when she saw what was in each, not believing for one second they would expect her wear them to dinner. She should have known better. Conner’s present was put on first. Brax leaned her over the table and held her dress up around the waist while Conner lubed her ass and inserted the anal beads. Not giving her a chance to get used to them, they had her on her back on the table, legs spread wide. Brax lifted up one of her feet, then the other, pulling the thong up her legs. When she lifted her butt at his order, he slid the thong into place, making sure the little clit stimulator attached to the thong was right where it should be. They told her the thong would help keep the beads in place and Brax would be keeping hold of the remote for the thong. When she stood up, he turned it on, and she let a breath out at the low vibration that started, thinking she could manage it. That’s when he started pressing the button on the remote and she nearly fell to the floor. For such a small device, it was almost as powerful as the wand. Thankfully, he turned it off when they made their way to the car. Getting used to the anal beads was something she never thought she would have to do. With every step, they moved or pulled, causing pleasure to surge through her body.

  Conner winked at her in the rearview mirror as he drove them into Blackwood town center. She stuck her tongue out at him in response, not noticing Brax had seen her until he turned the vibrator on full force, causing her to buck her hips and shout out.

  “There’ll be no more of that, Angel, no more warnings either. I’m in the mood for punishing naughty slaves tonight, so best behavior,” he said with a smile. She gulped in air, silently promising to make it through the meal without getting in trouble. Brax turned the vibrator off as they pulled up in front of the restaurant. Sarah had spotted it the few times she had been in town and couldn’t wait to try the food. When they walked in, her mouth watered at the smells coming from the kitchen. She instantly fell in love with the place. Not fancy or stuck-up like the places her family went to, but not a dive either. It was somewhere people could come for a lovely meal in a relaxed atmosphere and enjoy themselves. Nobody was trying to impress the people at the next table by talking loudly about their recent punchers such as a yacht or their large bank accounts. She spotted their party at a large table by the wall on the left side of the restaurant. Making their way over, she was greeted with hugs and kisses on the cheek while her men shook the other men’s hands and kissed Kirstie’s cheek. “Sorry we’re a little late, guys, had some last-minute adjustments we had to make,” Brax said.

  “No problem,” Brian said, rising from his seat. “By the way, me and Kirstie are pinching your mate for the night,” he said to Brax and Conner while pulling the chair in between himself and Kirstie out and monitoring for Sarah to take it. She took her seat while Brax and Conner sat between Liam and Danny. As they looked over their menus, Sarah noticed Danny pass something small and black to Brax, who pocketed it immediately. Sarah wondered what they were up to, but was brought out of her thoughts by the arrival of the waiter, a young man. After everyone had placed their orders, Kirstie started talking immediately about a party she was planning after the babies were born which were due next week. Sarah had to admit she was just as excited as Kirstie was about the birth and had already volunteered to be an adoptive aunty and babysitter whenever needed. She loved children and could finally picture herself having them now she had found someone she wanted to have them with. As the meal progressed, Sarah noticed Brax, Conner and Danny in a hushed conversation. Brax and Conner didn’t seem happy about whatever they were hearing. When Brax spotted her looking, he would turn the vibrator on, causing her to grip the table and keep her moan from escaping. He tortured her a number of times as the evening went on. After finishing the main meal, Sarah wanted to ask for a second helping of the salmon she had, but didn’t want to look greedy. She confessed to the table it was the most amazing meal she had ever had. By the time dessert was finished, Sarah couldn’t stop laughing at the stories she was being told about the people at the table, and how Tyler felt at Kirstie trying to get him sent to the loony bin. The laughter was interrupted, however, by a stunning blonde walking up to the table in a hot pink dress that was short enough to be a top and so low cut, most of her breasts were showing.

  “Slut alert,” Kirstie said to everyone at the table as the woman draped her arms over Conner’s and Brax’s shoulders.

  “Hi, guys, how’s things?” she asked. As only one or two people at the table greeted the woman, Joshua calling her Vicki, Sarah literally saw red as the slut bent and kissed first Brax then Conner on their cheeks. “Did you miss me?” she asked the men. “My holiday was fantastic and I managed to get an all-over body tan, no lines,” she added in a whisper to Brax’s ear. Sarah was about to scratch her eyes out of her head when Brian and Kirstie grabbed a hand each. That was when she noticed she had picked up Brian’s steak knife. Luckily for the slut, Brax and Conne
r removed her hands from them and both wiped their cheeks on their napkins. Brax stood and walked around to stand behind Sarah’s chair, Conner right there with him.

  “Vicki, I’d like to introduce you to Sarah. Sarah, this is Vicki, a member of the pack. Vicki, this is Sarah, our mate.” Sarah held her laugh at the look of shock on the woman’s face. It also didn’t take Sarah long to figure out what type of woman Vicki was. She smiled sweetly as she stood and raised her hand to the blonde.

  “Hi, it’s nice to meet you.” It took Vicki a moment to pull herself together, but she smiled and shook Sarah’s hand. The smile couldn’t have been more forced if she tried.

  “You too,” she replied. “You’re a very lucky woman. You’ll need to keep on your toes with these two no doubt.” She smiled again, looking at Brax and Conner. Sarah wasn’t sure, but she thought it sounded like a threat. “Well I can see you’ve almost finished your meal. I’ll see you around, everyone.” Her smile changed when she spotted Joshua, and Sarah guessed he was the next on Vicki’s hit list, as Sarah thought of it. She walked away and rejoined the three women sitting on the table she had come from. Brax then Conner kissed Sarah lightly on her lips.

  “I’m sorry about that, Angel. She’s just a little over-friendly,” Brax said, helping her back into her chair then returning to his own seat along with Conner.

  “What he means to say,” Kirstie said, “Is that Vicki is a slut and a social climber. She’s been after Brax and Conner, trying to get them to mate with her for years. Obviously they didn’t.” She laughed. “Did you see the look she gave Josh before leaving? As head sentinel, you’re next in line for her,” she finished, earning a groan from Josh and a laugh from the rest of the table.

  “Good luck with that,” Tyler said, patting him on the back.

  “I don’t fucking think so. I wouldn’t touch her even if she was in heat,” Josh replied, finishing his drink. With that, the tension left the table and Sarah enjoyed the rest of her dinner date.

  She didn’t understand the intensity of her feelings when she got home. All she knew was she had to get the scent of Vicki off her men. And now. She all but ripped their clothes off them and pushed them into the shower. When she was happy they no longer smelled of the blonde slut, she dragged two orgasms out of each man before being calm enough to go to sleep.

  Over the next week, Sarah’s moods became worse and worse. Her emotions were all over the place and she started hating Brax for biting her. He and Conner had both ensured her this was all normal and it meant her change would be coming soon. Deep down she didn’t really hate either of them, but she couldn’t help taking her moods out on them. She spent a lot of her time in the forest, wandering through the trees. She found a small stream and spent hours sitting there, listening to the sound of the wilderness. She couldn’t wait to be able to run with Brax and Conner when she did finally change. The only thing she had enjoyed for days was when Brian had come by on Thursday evening with her new documents. She had asked him for advice during their dinner about changing her name but keeping the change off any records. He had managed to do so and to her delighted surprise, arrived with a new birth certificate, driver’s license, and social security number all with her new name. Sarah Parker Mason. Her men loved her choice of name. Brian had gotten her photo off her old license and destroyed it afterward. She hadn’t heard a thing from her father or Anthony, but wanted to be sure they couldn’t find her. Friday morning, Brax’s new Aston Martin had been delivered. She was happy he had a new one, but a feeling of guilt returned about wrecking the first one.

  She took a long walk in the forest and realized how awful she had been treating the guys the last few days. With a plan in mind, she turned around and headed home. On her way, she practiced expanding her new senses, looking high into the trees and spotting small birds and other animals. When she got home, she made coffee for the men and planned on giving them as a peace offering before she apologized. With coffees in hand, she made her way to the office. Before knocking, she decided to use her new hearing to see what type of mood they were in. What she heard tore her heart to shreds.

  “I’m sorry, Brax, but it’s just how I feel. We never get to spend any time alone anymore. I love being with Sarah, but—”

  Sarah didn’t bother listening to any more. She raced upstairs after placing the coffee on a stand near the stairs. The tears fell before she closed the door to the lilac room. She couldn’t go to the master bedroom, she just couldn’t. She slid to the floor, hands pressed to her chest trying to ease the pain. What the hell was I thinking? They’ve been together happily for ten years. Of course they wouldn’t want anyone getting between them. Mate or not. Her heart was breaking at what she was going to have to do. She had to leave. She couldn’t come between these two men. They were perfect together and she was just coming between them. She loved them too much to let that happen. She quickly gathered her clothes she arrived in that hadn’t been moved yet. Running to the master bedroom, she checked she had all the things she had when she arrived and her new documents from Brian. She sneaked back down the stairs and into the kitchen. She looked in the key cupboard for the keys to her Focus. Without a backward look, she ran to the garage, jumped in her car, and drove away, knowing she was leaving her heart. There would never be another man in her life. Of that, she was certain.

  Chapter Eleven

  Brax had never been so stressed in his life. If dealing with Sarah’s moods and change wasn’t bad enough, Conner went and dropped a bomb on him. After getting down to the bottom of the problem, he found Conner had been worrying about something so silly he would have laughed if it wasn’t wearing down his lover. Conner confessed he was scared Brax would rather be with Sarah and push Conner away, letting him go and just be with Sarah. Brax couldn’t believe Conner thought that way. He was actually a little pissed at him for even thinking it. How could he believe such a stupid thing? Brax loved them both equally and couldn’t even think of a life without one of them. After reassuring him, he had sent Conner to town to pick a gift up that they bought for Sarah. While waiting, he again looked through the information Danny had received about Anthony Delargo from a pack of leopards in Michigan. Brax sent up another prayer of thanks that she got away when she did. From what they had found out about the man, Brax was positive Sarah would be dead now if she had stayed there and continued to deny him. Danny had asked the leopards to keep an eye on the man, track his movements, and let Blackwood know if he found any clue about Sarah’s whereabouts. The information Danny had given Brax last week at the dinner was the last they had been able to get as an emergency among the leopards had prevented them following the man for a while. With the change of her name, Brax wasn’t as worried about not being able to track the man as he was before. Deciding there was nothing he could do about it for now, he closed his laptop and stretched. He couldn’t wait for this damn change to finish. His balls were bluer than blue but neither Conner nor himself had felt like playing. Checking his phone when it beeped, he cursed when he was reminded he was meeting Shaun and the two groups of juveniles in an hour. It was the last thing he felt like doing at the moment.

  Conner returned with Sarah’s gift. A custom-made silver collar. To the outside world, it would look like a necklace, but the three of them would know it was a symbol of her submission to Brax, just like Conner’s was. The lock was a heart shape which had been engraved with the word Angel on it. Checking the necklace was just the way they wanted it, Conner wrapped the gift and put it away. They would give it to her after her change was complete. “Brax, I’m really sorry about before. I honestly had no idea what I was thinking. I mean, I can’t imagine being without either you or Sarah and I know you feel the same way. And hopefully Sarah will as well. I’m really sorry. God I feel like such a fucking idiot for even thinking the first thought of that whole stupid thing.”

  “It’s okay, baby, we’re all stressed and shit gets to you when things are like that. Let’s just forget about it okay? Why don’t you go see
if Sarah wants a coffee? I’ll go put a pot on.” Brax kissed him before leaving to go to the kitchen. He noticed two cold mugs of coffee on the stand by the stairs. Not sure what they were doing there, he picked them up and continued on to the kitchen. When the coffee was ready, Conner still hadn’t returned. As Brax was about to go see what was taking so long, Conner came bursting into the kitchen.

  “She’s gone, Brax, Sarah’s gone!”

  “What do you mean, she’s gone? Gone where?”

  “Gone, left, I don’t know. Her things have gone, all the things she arrived with are gone.” Brax still didn’t understand what Conner was meaning as the other man ran out the back door. He returned a moment later. “Her car’s gone, the Focus. She left us, Brax, she’s fucking left us.” Conner cried as he sunk to the floor. Brax stood, unable to do a thing to help Conner. She couldn’t be gone, she just couldn’t. Why would she leave? He turned slowly around the kitchen, looking to see if the work benches or appliances held the answers. Then he remembered the cold mugs of coffee and all of a sudden, he knew. She’d been bringing them coffee and overheard their conversation. He would bet his right arm all she heard was the worst part of it as well.
