Madison studied his implacable face. “I thought I was forgiven.”
“Madison, you were forgiven before the punishment even began, but the lesson isn’t over. You will wear this dress tonight and next time a situation like this comes up you will think about your words and handle it more appropriately, won’t you?” he asked.
“Yes, sir,” she said with a slight pout to her lower lip.
Jared seemed to be holding back a smile and was choosing to ignore the sulky look Madison knew was on her face. “Go finish getting ready, baby-love, we need to leave in fifteen minutes.”
Madison left to do as he bid; she took a little time to wash her face and redo her makeup. Studying her reflection critically, she saw that she had managed to repair most of the damage her tears had caused. Her face was still a little pink but though her eyes looked big and a little shiny, they weren’t puffy as she feared they would be.
She was desperately trying to ignore Ethan’s role in her punishment or the thought of what would happen later when they got home from the gathering. Every step she took jolted the plug lodged in her bottom and pulled on the tight skin of her punished backside.
Madison left her curls twisted into a soft cascade at the top of her head then looked for her panties. She gasped when she found them in tatters next to the bed.
“Jared, my panties are torn,” she said worriedly.
“I told you that you wouldn’t need them. Part of your punishment will be to go bare beneath the dress; all evening when you feel the air on your punished bottom or shift in your seat, you will remember this discussion,” he told her firmly.
“I can’t go without panties!” Madison cried, scandalized, even though the thought of panties on her scorched posterior wasn’t a pleasant one.
“You most certainly can and I wouldn’t argue further about it unless you want me to get the strap back out.” Jared looked at her with a raised brow.
“Yes, sir,” Madison said softly, giving up the argument and slipping into her heels with a dejected slump of her shoulders. She’d already been nervous about meeting the rest of the packs and their leaders; now Madison wasn’t sure how she’d get through the evening.
“I think spending the evening with a plug pressed deep inside her sore little bottom and no panties will help Madison to remember her manners, don’t you, Ethan?” Jared asked his second as if she wasn’t there.
“I do indeed, Alpha, although I think some of the edge was taken off her passion with the strapping,” Ethan pointed out helpfully.
Jared studied Madison thoughtfully. “I do believe you’re right, Ethan,” he said, pulling Madison in close and kissing her deeply until she clung to him and responding enthusiastically.
He spun her out of his arms and into Ethan’s, who immediately kissed her as Jared reached for something in the cupboard.
Madison resisted Ethan’s kiss at first, but soon with a groan of surrender she wrapped her arms around him and sank into his kiss. All too soon the kiss was over and both men were leading her out to the car.
The thought of spending the evening meeting new people with a sore bottom, a butt plug, and an achy needy clit was almost more than she could bear.
Chapter Seven
The car ride was torture; every time they hit a bump, the plug in her bottom jolted inside her, which was telegraphed immediately to her clit, making her bite back moans of need. The hot skin of her poor punished backside chafed against the leather of the seat.
Madison shifted in the seat for about the twentieth time, trying to find some relief.
“Sit still,” Jared and Ethan said almost in unison.
Madison glared at both men. “My ass hurts!”
“As it should, you were punished. You will cease fidgeting and sit still on your naughty bottom, unless you think I need to spank it again?” Jared asked with a raised brow.
She crossed her arms under her chest and sat back in the seat with a scowl. “No, thanks.”
Both men grinned in response.
The car arrived at a big wooden structure that looked like a large scale hunting lodge. Madison looked around with interest as Jared and Ethan escorted her inside.
A loud female squeal filled the air and Madison watched open-mouthed as a beautiful woman with long sable-colored hair flung herself into Jared’s open arms.
“I’ve missed you so much! Is this your mate? I’m so glad you and Ethan finally found her!” The woman talked a mile a minute, spinning from Jared to hug Ethan—which Madison was surprised to find also irritated her. Then to her shock, the woman turned to grab her in a smothering embrace. “Hi! I’m Jordan. I’m so happy to finally meet you. I didn’t think my brother and Ethan would ever find their mate.”
Sister? Their mate? Madison tried to quickly process all the information being thrown at her, but it was hard to keep up with the whirlwind that was obviously Jared’s sister. She pulled away from Jordan to look up at Jared. “What’s she talking about?”
“Thank you, Jordan,” Jared said resignedly. “We haven’t had a chance to fully explain the rule of three to Madison.”
“Whoops! Why not?” Jordan asked curiously.
“Don’t you have mates of your own to annoy?” Ethan asked without rancor.
Jordan laughed and slapped him on the arm before grabbing Madison’s hand and pulling her with her toward a large booth. “I’ll explain it to you, Madison. Left to them you’ll be having your third cub before you understand you’re really mated to two men.”
“How is that possible? How could Jared not have told me?” Madison asked softly, feeling a little betrayed.
“He probably thought it was best to give you time to get used to the whole mated to a werewolf thing since you’re human. I mean that was probably quite a shock in itself, am I right?” Jordan elbowed her lightly in the side and winked as they sat down.
Madison couldn’t help but like Jared’s sister. “True enough.” Madison said as she sat down with a wince.
“Ouch. Butt plug and a sore backside, huh? I hate butt plugs but then the anal later is amazing,” Jordan said with a grin.
Madison blushed hotly; Jordan’s penchant for blunt talk was going to take some getting used to. “Please explain the rule of three.”
“Well, a few centuries ago there were several battles for survival between werewolf clans and other supernatural beings. Many alphas were lost. In almost every incident whether the alpha or his second survived, they were unmated and the mate of the dead alpha or second mated with the survivor. All of the matings were true mate bonds. This was something thought to be impossible as werewolves have always believed we each have one true mate. Upon further study the packs realized for many years either the alpha or his second was mated in most cases, never both. Turns out most alphas and their seconds have the same destined mate. So the rule of three was adopted for alphas and their seconds only. If an alpha or a second find their true mate, they are able to institute the rule of three and take the other as a third to their mating. It furthers the protection of the pack and fosters consistency. If something happens to either the alpha or the second, the transition is smoother and pack leadership doesn’t change much. Actually both the alpha and his second are alpha wolves, but the stronger of the pair becomes the pack alpha and the slightly weaker his second. But trust me, very few could wrest control of a pack from either if they are a strong pair of wolves,” Jordan finished with a wide grin. “Trust me, honey, having two men to meet your every need is not bad at all.”
“So I’m mated to both Jared and Ethan?” Madison asked with a frown.
“Once Ethan takes you and the mate bond of the rule of three is sealed, you will basically belong to both of them, though Jared will always be first mate because you bonded to him first.”
Madison rolled the thought of having sex with both men around in her mind and found herself growing even wetter and having the sudden desire to rock back on the plug in her ass. She was embarrassed that she found the idea so t
itillating.
“Don’t be embarrassed, you were made to take them both on, so it’s natural for your body to crave their possession,” Jordan said with a wave of her hand.
“You’re mated to two men?” Madison asked curiously.
“Yep, which most of the time is fantastic, unless of course I’m in trouble; twice the loving is wonderful, twice the punishment, not so much,” Jordan said with an affected shudder.
Madison felt warmth at her back before she could respond; without even looking she knew Jared and Ethan were behind her.
She felt herself sink into their heat, letting their combined scents wrap around her. Madison realized she wasn’t at all bothered by the thought of being shared between them. It was like the final puzzle piece slid into place inside her and the restless, unsettled feeling that had filled her since she’d met Jared was gone.
She belonged to both of them; needed both of them and something deep inside her had always known it. They were why she’d never really been attracted to other men. It was as if all her life she’d been in a holding pattern, waiting for them to claim her.
Jared pulled her from the booth to slide in and pull her after him; Ethan took the outside with her pressed close between them. Madison looked up to see that two large men had joined Jordan and had done the same with her; she smiled up at them before snuggling happily down between her mates.
Jared introduced Madison to everyone sitting with them. He’d just finished introducing her to Max and Kline, Jordan’s mates when another group of three sat down to complete their booth.
The new group was comprised of Gage and Simon; their mate Winter didn’t look happy to be there, her mouth turned down in a sullen pout, barely returning Madison’s greeting when introduced.
As she watched, Gage wrapped one large hand around the back of Winter’s neck and leaned to whisper in her ear. Whatever he said had an immediate effect; she straightened with a blush and nodded before she responded verbally with a soft, “Yes, sir.”
Winter looked at Madison, discomfort and embarrassment in her eyes. “I’m sorry for my rudeness, Madison. I’m truly pleased to meet you. I was just pouting because I’m being punished and forgot my manners.”
Madison’s heart went out to the other woman, knowing how hard it must have been to make that confession to a stranger. Offering a hesitant smile she said ruefully, “I completely understand, I’m being punished too. Not always the best circumstance in which to meet someone new,” Madison finished with a grimace.
Winter’s face immediately softened, her eyes now greeting Madison with true apology and tentative friendship. “Thank you for understanding.”
Though saying something so personal out loud for everyone at the booth was hard for her, Madison was glad she’d been able to offer something to relieve the other woman’s discomfort.
Jared’s big hand wrapped around the back of her own neck as he pulled her around to face him; he smiled down at her before kissing her deeply. “I’m proud of you, little mate.”
Releasing her, he exchanged a meaningful look with Ethan before returning to his conversation with the other two alphas and their seconds.
Ethan stood up from the edge of the booth, took Madison’s arm, and pulled her up to follow him.
“Where are we going?” she asked, suddenly finding herself a little shy of Ethan.
“You earned yourself a little reward, my lady,” he informed her as he pulled her out of the room and down the hall into a small bathroom. Shutting the door, he turned to face her. “Lift your dress to your waist.”
Madison swallowed at the command; unable to resist the power in his voice, she lifted her dress to her waist, exposing her to his hungry gaze from the waist down.
“So pretty,” he murmured. “Spread your legs.”
She’d barely managed to move her legs apart before he’d pushed her back against the wall and caught a thigh in each hand, lifting her straight up until her clit was level with his face. He moved so fast, she grabbed his head reflexively to keep her balance.
Ethan hooked one of Madison’s legs over each shoulder then pressed his face into her wet heat.
She groaned and clenched her fingers in his hair as his tongue lapped quickly at the juices he found seeping from her wet slit. He slid two fingers into her before sucking her stiff little clit into his mouth.
Madison had been so primed from her earlier punishment she came immediately, grinding herself into his mouth and on his fingers with a scream.
She felt his lips stretch into a smile where they continued to feast upon her, offering her no respite but sending her straight up into the next peak. His fingers continued to thrust hard and fast while his other hand moved to rock the butt plug inside her.
“Oh, please, Ethan… please,” she begged throatily as her body worked quickly toward another explosive climax. When he pulled his fingers out only to return them with a third, she screamed again as her body shuddered and clenched his fingers.
After one final lick, Ethan allowed her body to slide down the wall then turned her to bend over the vanity. One hand pressed between her thighs to tickle her clit as he grabbed the base of the butt plug and pulled it almost all the way out before slamming it back home.
Madison found herself begging for more of the hard thrusts, the soreness of her tender hole somehow adding to the intense pleasure. Just as she was about to shoot into her climax, Ethan stopped, removing his hand from her throbbing clit.
“What? Why?” she asked with a wail of frustration.
He smiled at her knowingly, and then he pulled the plug out of her bottom and tossed it into the trash, leaving her achingly empty.
Madison shifted from one leg to the other in need. “Please, Ethan.”
“That one belongs to Jared,” he said, smiling down at her as he licked his fingers clean. Then he gently righted her clothing and took her hand to lead her back to their seats.
After being filled so completely by the plug for most of the day, the emptiness of her back hole made Madison almost more aware of it than when the plug had filled her; that sensation, combined with the roughness of the seat against her sore bottom when she slid into the booth next to Jared, caused everything in her to clench in renewed need. She couldn’t bite back the groan that escaped her.
He turned immediately, kissing her deeply and pressing his hand between her legs under the booth.
Madison didn’t even have time to protest before his finger sank deep inside her with his thumb riding her clit relentlessly. She came with a scream that was muffled by his mouth as he seemed to drink every bit of the pleasure from her, swallowing her cries.
She sank back against Jared as he removed his fingers and licked them clean in front of everyone there. Madison wanted to be horrified but found she was too replete to care at that precise moment.
Dinner was served before she could even wrap her mind around what had just happened.
As Madison tried to look at anything but the other people sitting around the booth, Winter caught her eye with an obviously sympathetic look.
Madison felt tears gather in her eyes as she realized the other woman completely understood her embarrassment at being brought to orgasm so publicly.
“Madison, would you like to come with me to the restroom?” Winter asked as she rose from between her two mates.
She looked hesitantly at Ethan and was relieved when he immediately slid out of the booth to let her join the other woman.
Winter caught Madison by the arm and pulled her after her toward the bathroom and a little privacy.
“I’m so sorry you had to go through that, Madison, they’re like animals,” the other woman whispered softly. “That’s why I knew I had to help you.”
“Help me?” Madison frowned, and then she pulled against Winter’s hold as they moved past the restroom and down another, all toward a large door.
Winter simply tightened her grip and continued dragging Madison toward the door, “Yes, a human woman should
never be subjected to their carnal lusts. It’s disgusting. I hate it. When she came to me, I knew it was the only chance I had to escape them and in the process I’m helping another human trapped between alphas.”
“But I don’t need help. I love Jared and I think I will come to love Ethan. It feels right belonging to them,” Madison tried to explain as she tried again to pull away from Winter.
“No! You’re just brainwashed, made mindless by the pleasure they force upon your body no doubt. It’s the pheromones; it’s not Jared or Ethan. They’re using their pheromones to trick you into complacency until they have you bred. Then you’ll never escape.”
“Don’t you love your mates, Simon and Gage?” Madison asked uncertainly.
“Love them?” Winter practically snarled. “I hate them. They’re filthy disgusting animals and I hate everything about the nasty things they make me do and the way this weak body responds. I know you think you want to stay but I’m sorry. Selena offered me a way out and I’m taking it and the only way I get out is if I bring you with me.”
“Selena?” Madison really began to panic and trying to get away from the other woman when she said that name. “Selena wants me dead!”
A throaty chuckle sounded from the other side of the door before it swung open to reveal Selena standing there. “Indeed I do, you pathetic sniveling human. You don’t deserve the gift you’ve been given.”
With a nod of her head, Selena directed Winter to bring Madison outside. The woman complied eagerly. “I brought her just like you said, Selena. It was actually a lot easier to get her away from them than I thought it would be.”
Madison began fighting to get away; she knew if Selena took her from this place she would die.
Selena laughed. “So the little mouse has a little bit of spirit in her after all. You’re still not fit for my alpha,” she said, grabbing Madison’s arm in a bruising grip and dragging her to stand next to the Dumpster in the alley way, wrapping her arm around her prisoner and easily holding her in place by her side. Then Selena turned her attention to Winter. “Filthy disgusting animals, are we?”
