As it was her screech hurt his ears, as he took the stairs to Silas's flat three at a time.
"Put me down, you damn mutt. You can't do this. Put me down!"
He swatted her ass twice, and his wolf hummed his enjoyment when her scent increased and she moaned into his back.
"Damn you."
"Damned, I am. This is true no doubt, but I suggest you stop struggling, princess, before the first thing I do when I get you inside is spank that delicious ass of yours, until you won't be able to sit down."
He bit back his own groan when the wetness between her legs increased. His wolf whined, and Malachi was surprised his dick hadn’t punched through the zipper of his jeans. Fuck it, he wanted her, and he'd damn well have her. This whole stupidity ended tonight. He might not be able to allow his wolf to mark her, but he could and would fuck her.
"You wouldn't dare." Her breathless attempt at a threat made his smile deepen, because even as she said it, she grew wetter. He knew her underwear would be soaked, and she froze when he ran a hand up her exposed leg and skimmed her cloth covered and soaking wet crotch.
"You know I would, princess. Damn, I do like dresses. Such easy access."
She didn't counter his words, but all the struggle went out of her and her cat's purrs vibrated through him.
He didn't bother with the lights once he managed to unlock the front door, just bundled her straight up the hall way, kicked his bedroom door open and threw her onto his bed. He leapt on top of her before she'd even stopped bouncing and grasping her arms yanked them up above her head. Her eyes went wide when he snapped the leather handcuffs on her and then pulled her down the bed and did the same with ankle cuffs.
She yanked on her restraints and glared at him, but it wasn't fear she projected at him, but arousal so intense his wolf foamed at the mouth to get his claws into her.
Malachi ignored his animal and perched himself on the bed instead.
"Cut me loose, damn you." Her cat hissed and snarled, but she didn't shift, and Malachi grinned. She could get out of those restraints in seconds if she wanted to. The fact that she didn't even try, told him all he needed to know. Besides, he had a pretty good insight into what his little princess liked, from his talks with Silas. And hadn’t that led to the best sex the two of them had had in a long time.
Malachi scrubbed his hand over his face. Thinking of Silas, where was he? It didn't take that long to walk to the corner shop for more beers. Unless he'd witnessed Maria's arrival and had decided to give them some time alone. That would be just like him.
He focused his attention back onto the squirming woman on his bed and let his wolf show through his eyes. Maria blanched when he extended the claw on his index finger and used it to run circles around her nipples. The already hard nubs firmed even more and strained through the thin fabric of her summer dress, and Maria bit her lip.
"I've got you right where I want you, princess, and I'm not letting you go until we've sorted this. You've been a very naughty girl, ignoring Silas's phone calls. He's been worried sick about you, and I don't like to see him worried." He put that clawed finger on her lips when she looked as though she was going to say something to that, and she clamped her mouth shut.
"Not a word, princess. This time ‘round I talk, and you listen."
Her eyes widened even more and her breaths grew erratic, but she nodded her assent, and Malachi resumed the slow exploration of her tits. His mouth went dry at the thought of feasting on that bounty, but he had to say his piece first.
"I know you won't believe me, but I didn't come for you back then, because I wanted to protect you." He grinned at her snort of disgust and took one a nipple between thumb and forefinger and pinched. Her back arched off the bed as far as the restraints would let her, and she glared at him, even as her sweet musk filled the air around them.
"Hmm, like that I see, princess."
He repeated the action to the other nipple and then bent down and bit first one and then the other through the fabric of her dress, and then suckled the sting away. By the time he pulled away, the wet fabric clung to her tits, and the outline of her pebbly areolas was clearly visible through the lacey bra she wore under her dress. They both groaned under their breath, and she licked her lips when he had to adjust his throbbing dick.
"Like I said, I needed to protect you. My father was one of those originals that thought he could do whatever he damn well pleased. After my mother passed away, he lost the plot completely. I didn't want anything to do with his antics. The day we came across each other in the forest, he was running one of his monthly hunts. A barbaric practice that meant anyone was fair game. Animal, human, or shifter, alike."
Maria gasped, and Malachi held his breath at the condemnation he was sure to see in her eyes, but when he forced himself to look at her, all he could see was the shimmer of tears—for him.
"I'm sorry. I can tell you loved your mother very much."
Her whispered words surprised him. He hadn't even been aware of projecting his feelings so strongly, and he shrugged his shoulders.
"Yes, I did, but she died a long time ago. I would have left the pack then, but she made me promise that I would try and stop my father from destroying himself. Guess I didn't succeed with that very well. The old man never listened to me. I ran with them once when I was just a teen, and I was so disgusted by what went on that I never did it again. He couldn’t reconcile that. Apparently not wanting to kill innocent bystanders made me into a pussy and not worthy of his attention."
A strangled sound escaped Maria's throat, and Malachi smiled.
"Like I said, water under a long gone bridge, but that night, I'd had enough. I left the pack, and I was going to make a life away for myself away from them and the council, who knew what my father was up to, yet turned a blind eye because he was one the fucking originals. Like that gave him the right to treat everyone else like dirt, his own flesh and blood included. I didn't realize back then how far the corruption went."
He got up and started pacing. This was the bit where she would tell him to fuck off once and for all, he was sure.
"The underground holding station you were held in? He was involved in that."
Maria's cat hissed, and Malachi stopped his pacing and nodded grimly.
"I didn't know that at the time, I swear. It was only when De Souza tracked me down and assumed I would take over my father's arm of that division that I put two and two together."
Maria went so pale that he thought she was going to faint, and he was next to her in an instant. He went to untie her arms, but she shook her head at him and something inside of him broke at the trust he saw in her eyes.
"No, don't. It's the only way I can keep my beast from taking over and jumping your bones right now."
She ground the admission out through clenched teeth, and Malachi's burden felt lighter.
"I wouldn't blame your cat if she wanted to take my head off, after what I just told you."
Maria shook her head and glared at him.
"You're not your father and can’t be held responsible for his actions. And you did rescue me, after all. But Anton, damn it. I knew he was a creep, but I had no idea he was that evil. What can he possibly gain from this? And why kidnap me? I was as good as his back then. He didn't need to go through all that."
Her expressive eyes clouded over, and a shudder went through her as she appeared to be caught up in her memories.
Malachi resumed his slow exploration of her body, and gooseflesh broke out on her exposed skin when he ran his claws slowly up the inside of her legs. He took the hem of her dress with it, until he reached the soft flesh of her inner thighs and he could see the dark stain on her purple panties. A fresh wave of her feminine essence hit his nose, and he groaned. That stain darkened further as he watched, and her cream trickled past the elastic and coated the top of her thighs.
Malachi had excellent night vision, and with the windows open and the full moon in a cloudless sky, there wasn't a nuance of her b
ody's reaction that he didn't see as though a spotlight illuminated the room.
He swiped the moisture touching his fingertips away and lifting the digits to his mouth, licked them clean. His wolf strained to be set free, as all that was Maria exploded on his taste buds, and her little mewl of need made his balls drew tight.
He had to hurry this along, before he fucking exploded, that's for sure.
"He didn't know you'd been captured. The night I rescued you, he was there. I thought it all went too smoothly. De Souza set me up and used me to get you out of there. He couldn't risk you getting hurt and your father getting wind of his illegal dealings with the black market. That asshole has been lining his own coffers all this time. As head of the Mating Project, he's in the perfect position to sell off those females he thinks he can get away with." Malachi smiled grimly at her sharp intake of breath. "Anyway, that night, he got me when you ran away, and he gave me an ultimatum. Stay and carry on my father's work, or leave and never return. What I should have done is stayed and fought this, but who would have believed me, back then? It was my word against his. And all the evidence pointed to my involvement. Besides he threatened to kill you, before he'd let us be together, and I couldn't take that chance. So I ran, and vowed to do all I could to stop him from afar. I've been amassing evidence on the bastard ever since and undermining his operations, but he always escapes. He's a clever motherfucker, and, of course, the longer I stayed away, the more time he had to misalign my name and my pack."
He crunched his teeth together, and Maria clicked her tongue.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know. Is that why he backed off then, do you think? I never understood why he just let me go."
"Everything was too up in the air, I think, for him to risk a mating with you, and from what I can gather your father had a change of heart. He felt guilty for what happened."
Maria snorted in disgust.
"He sure as fuck got over that now. I was ambushed at a so called family only meal tonight, and De Souza made his intentions perfectly clear." A shudder went through her, and her eyes filled with tears. "He knows I mated with Silas, and he wants me to persuade him to sign on for his project. Malachi, I've been such a fool. I never should have bitten Silas. I've put him in danger, and you, too, and my entire family. Anton is insane, and he's got this fixation with me, and I do believe he will stop at nothing to get what he wants."
Malachi silently agreed with her assessment.
"Don't worry about him. I'll take him down for sure this time. I've been studying the ancient laws and ways for years. That's how I met Silas."
He grinned at the thought, and Maria returned his smile.
"You could say we bonded over dusty old books. And before you ask, hell, no, I'd never been with a man before and neither had Silas. We both fought this insane attraction for months, and in the end, when we finally allowed our preconceived notions of what was right and wrong and acceptable or not to fall by the wayside we ended up with what we have now."
"Mates?" Maria asked.
Malachi nodded.
"Though I haven't claimed him and I won't claim you either, not until this is all settled once and for all, and then, God willing, you both still want me to a part of your relationship then, yes, I will."
"Jesus, you do talk a lot of crap."
Silas's voice drifted over them from the shadows, and there was the clink of glass when he put the carrier bag containing the beer down on the floor by the door.
"Mind you, I do approve of how you've arranged our girl. Now, I don't know about you, but I think we need to stop all those worries our mate seems to be harboring, not to mention the punishment she's earned herself for worrying us."
Silas grinned at him, and when they turned as one, Maria swallowed hard.
"Oh, I quite agree. It's time for some fun and games."
Chapter Twelve
Maria couldn't get enough air into her lungs, and she yanked on her restraints, the longer the two of them just stood there watching her through hooded lids.
Relax, little cat. Let us take care of you, and we'll deal with the rest of the world tomorrow, or next week.
Silas winked at her, and Maria's agitated cat calmed down. In fact the animal bowed her head in submission and hissed her approval when Malachi pulled his tee over his head. Her throat went dry taking in the hair roughened expanse of his chest and the force of his erection straining his jeans. Silas, too, shrugged out of his shirt and kicked off his trousers and boxer briefs in one impatient move. His magnificent cock bounced up to his navel, and Maria whimpered when he took himself in hand and stroked along his impressive girth. She couldn't tear her gaze away from the slow movement of that hand. Not even when Malachi tore her dress off her with one abrupt flick of his clawed hands.
Cool air fluttered across her exposed skin, and her breasts grew heavy as her nipples tried their best to punch through the lace of her bra. The bed dipped again when Malachi knelt next to her and with a few well-placed flicks of his claws cut away their lacy covering. He continued a downward path of pleasuring pain toward her mound, using just enough force to leave a red trail behind. The slow slide and drag of those razor-sharp nails of his caused her whole body to tense, as sensations bombarded her. More of her juices gushed out of her as her pussy clenched in desperate need to be filled, and her hips pushed up when he circled her clit with his claw, lazy, incredibly slow circles that had her panting and undulating her hips in an effort to increase the pressure to that little swollen nubbin.
"Lie still, princess, or so help me I'll leave you hanging." Malachi's hot hand landed on her belly and pushed her hips back down on the bed at the same time as Silas stepped close enough for Malachi to grasp hold of his cock. The action meant he abandoned Maria's needy clit, and she whimpered when he licked away the bead of pre-cum that had appeared on Silas's dick.
"Fuck, yes." Silas hissed the words as Malachi took all of his lover's dick in his mouth and fondled his balls with one hand. The other still held her hips down, and Maria bit her lip as arousal fizzed through her veins. She wanted to come so badly, and she was so damn close that the slight wafts of air, created by Malachi bobbing his head up and down on Silas's cock made her clit contract with need.
Silas fisted his hands in Malachi's hair and fucked his mouth with an urgency and brutal need that he'd never displayed with her. She tore her gaze away from the sight of Malachi's lips stretched across Silas's dick to find Silas's gaze riveted between her thighs.
Maria whimpered at the heat of that gaze, until Silas pulled away from Malachi and knelt next to her head instead.
Grasping his dick, slick with Malachi's saliva, he ran it across her bottom lip, and Maria opened her mouth eagerly to take in as much as he could. Silas kept his hand on the base of his shaft to stop her from choking on his length, and she shot him a grateful look, as he started to fuck her mouth. The taste of him mixed in with Malachi's earthy scent, and she swallowed the first spurts of his cum down.
"Fuck, that's so hot."
Malachi's words sounded strained and slightly distorted as though he was more wolf than man right now, and Silas fucked her faster. One hand wrapped in her hair as he held her head at just the right angle to serve his needs, and the knowledge that he used her to his ends, had her grow even wetter. The rip of fabric as her underwear tore made her shudder, and there was the swipe of Malachi's rough tongue, and her body tensed. His claws dug into her ass as he lifted her up to give himself better access to her drenched core, and she screamed as her first orgasm ripped through her body.
Malachi chuckled into her pussy and then stepped up his efforts as Silas pulled out of her mouth and his hot cum splashed over her breasts.
Maria was too far gone to care, because Malachi now pushed two fingers into her channel, and finding her sweet spot in record time sent her over the edge twice more.
By the time she could draw air into her lungs, Silas was removing her leg shackles and Malachi had rid himself of his trousers. His cock
was just as thick, if not thicker than Silas's. It wasn't quite as long, and the head of his dick looked swollen and purple, the balls drawn up tight to his body as though he was barely holding in his cum.
Malachi’s stubble glistened with the evidence of her arousal, and when he bent to devour her mouth his with his, she tasted herself in with him. It pitched her need for him sky high again, despite her earlier orgasms, and she pleaded with him in between kisses.
"Please, please…"
He pulled away and with a wicked grin bent down to lick the sticky evidence of Silas's cum of her breasts. Silas joined him on the other side, and the dual sensations sent her clit and pussy into overdrive. There was something so dirty and yet terribly arousing in the act, and when both men bit down on one erect nipple each, another orgasm ripped through her.
"Beautiful." Silas grinned at her and then cupped Malachi's head as he, too, abandoned her nipple and kissed him. This time the kiss they shared was tender, if passionate. Silas broke away and licked away the leftover residue of Maria's juices off the other man's chin, and then kissed a path down Malachi's body, whilst taking a firm hold of his lover's cock.
Malachi threw his head back, and the veins in his neck stood out starkly as he fought for control. Silas slapped his hands away when Malachi tried to pull him off, and instead took all of Malachi's dick in his mouth. Pinned as she was under Silas's weight over her legs, Maria could only watch in awe when Malachi roared his release into Silas's mouth. Both men fell on the bed next to her and took it in turns to kiss her until the heavy prods of their erections dug into either side of her again.
Silas propped himself up, pulled out a condom from the bedside cabinet and threw it at Malachi. He caught it with a grin down at her and tore it open with his teeth as Silas got another one and turned her sideways until she faced Malachi. Caught in the act of rolling the condom on his cock he grinned at her and kissed her again.
The men exchanged a look over her head that sent an army of butterflies into her lower belly. Delicious anticipation made her pant as Malachi raised one of her legs and rubbed the broad tip of his sheathed dick along her pussy lips.
