3013: MATED (3013: The Series)

by Roma, Laurie

  “I understand. Everything had been strange, but it’s all been so wonderful. I love being mated to all of you. What is going to happen now? I know you said that we could stay until I settle everything here, but then what are we going to do?”

  “We will travel to whatever worlds you would like to see as we make our way back to our homeworld so you may see it. I want to show you the universe, to give you anything and everything you have ever wanted.”

  “That sounds wonderful,” she said on a dreamy sigh.

  “Since we are immortal, we have plenty of time to see whatever you wish.”

  She jolted at that. “Immortal? Holy fucking shit storm! I know you guys were old, but shit, I didn’t really think about me being immortal now!”

  His glowing golden eyes sparkled with mirth. “Something else we forgot to mention? Aye, we are immortal, although there are ways that we can be killed. Most Dragon Warriors that have lost their lives have done so in battle, so that is something you will never have to worry about. You will never put yourself in danger like that. I cannot bear to even think of losing you,” he growled.

  “Don’t worry, Thorn. I have no intention of jumping into anything dangerous, unless any of you are in jeopardy that is.”

  His eyes narrowed. “You will not—”

  “I will not sit back and do nothing if one of you is in danger. I won’t do anything that knowingly puts me at risk because I know all four of your would lose your minds, but I can’t change who I am either, even for you. I am a soldier, and I need you to understand that.”

  Sighing, Thorn pulled her closer to him. “I think we need to just put you in a magical bubble where nothing can harm you. That is the only way I will stop worrying.”

  Alexis laughed softly as she absently reached down between them and stroked her hand over his semi-hard shaft and it quickly hardened as she touched him. “I wouldn’t doubt you could really do it, too. You do like to catch me off guard.”

  Thorn let out a growl as his hips flexed forward. “You seem to like distracting me as well, mate. I cannot think of anything but being inside you while you stroke my cock like that.”

  Her hand stilled. She had been so focused on learning his body that she hadn’t really realized that she had been stroking him. “I’m sorry, I didn’t even—”

  Thorn stopped her from pulling her hand away by wrapping his around her, keeping her fingers curled around his hard cock. “Do not stop. Feel free to touch me whenever you want, mate. We would love to have your hands on us at all times,” Thorn offered in a strangled voice as she continued to torment him. “My body belongs to you, just as my heart and soul do.”

  She smiled shyly at him. “I’ve always been fascinated by male bodies, but I’ve never really felt comfortable with anyone before all of you to really explore how I wanted. I seem to be particularly mesmerized by your cock. It’s so big and hard, and yet the skin is so soft. I love how it pulses in my hand. What are these?” she asked as she touched the three ridges underneath the head of his cock.

  “It is the most sensitive part of our cocks and it rubs against the inside of your channel as we move inside of you.” He purred as she rubbed her thumb against the ridges. “Your touch calms me and excites me all at once. It is amazing, the power you wield over me.”

  “You have only to look at me and I get wet for you. I’ve never felt this way before meeting you. I never knew I could love this way, but I do. I love you, Thorn. So much it scares me that it happened so fast.” she whispered back, feeling his cock jerk in her palm at her words.

  Thorn was her mate that she connected with on another level. He didn’t hesitate to open himself to her, to provide whatever he could to ensure her happiness. His devotion was endless and absolute. She could feel the love he poured through their bond and it surrounding her like a cloak of warmth and happiness.

  His golden eyes were practically feral as he stared back at her. “I will love you for eternity and beyond, Alexis. You are my every hope and dream. I need to be inside you, mate, but first I need to mark you, and then we can finish what you have begun.”

  Picking her up into his arms, Thorn carried her to the edge of the pool, sitting her on the bank so he was standing between her parted legs. He placed a fist over his heart then laid his other hand over her heart.

  “You are my light, my love and my life. With this mark I share my magic and my heart with you. I vow to protect you, to ensure your happiness above all, and love you for all the days we are together in this life, until we are reunited in the next.”

  Thorn watched the light flow from beneath his palm to engulf her left side as his magic streamed through her system, marking her as his mate for all to see. He saw his golden tattoo covering the left side of her body, with his dragon’s claw cupping her left breast right over her heart.

  He was fiercely aroused looking at his mark on her and he felt pride surge through him knowing she belonged to him. No other male would touch her. He wouldn’t allow it.

  None of them would.

  Looking down into her glowing violet eyes, he leaned down to take her lips with his in a brutal kiss. He opened his mind to hers fully, wanting to feel her inside him so they were one. He had no secrets from his mate, and wanted her to know him as completely as he knew himself. In return he wanted her to let him into her.

  He wanted every part of her to belong to him.

  Gently pushing her back so she was laying down before him, he spread her thighs so he could look down at her bare mound and a low growl of approval rumbled from deep in his chest. “You are so beautiful, mate. So pretty and pink. Look at all this juice spilling from your tiny little hole. I am just as fascinated by your body as you are with mine. You are mine. Mine to care for, to pleasure and love.”

  Alexis moaned low in the throat as Thorn’s mouth lowered down to her and she jolted under him as his tongue swiped over her dripping slit. The taste of her exploded on his tongue, making him want more of her. He could feel her pleasure merge with his through their bond, and it heightened his own so his cock throbbed like an open wound.

  “You are so sweet,” he growled.

  He fought down his own need and focused on bringing his mate pleasure as he held her body open for him to feast on. He lapped at the copious juices spilling from her pussy then concentrated on creating more as he shoved his tongue inside her hot hole.

  “Thorn! Oh god, it’s so good. Please…”

  Her cries were music to his ears as she climaxed. The muscles of her cunt pulsed around his tongue as if trying to push him out, but he continued to shove back into her, drinking down her release.

  He had never seen anything so stunning as his mate in the throes of her orgasm, and he wanted to see it over and over again. He wanted to drink down her juices until she begged him to stop. He licked and sucked her tiny clit, shoving his finger deep inside her to drive her back to the brink of climax again.

  “Come again, mate,” Thorn demanded. “Come again and feed me your sweet release.” He drove his finger inside her then added another, stroking in her while he sucked on her clit, making her cry out again. His other hand held onto her hip to hold her still as she thrashed beneath him.

  “Mine!” He allowed the low, rough growl to rumble in his chest and was awarded as a new flood of liquid spilled onto his tongue.

  “Thorn!”

  She was glorious as she arched her back, and spread herself wide, offering herself to him completely. He licked and suckled her to another shattering release before he levered up over her and plunged his cock into her, unable to wait any longer. They rode out the waves of pleasure together, climbing higher and higher until his cock swelled and he gave himself over to the rapture of being one with his mate.

  Alexis and Thorn walked back to their campsite holding hands and laughing as if they had been lovers for centuries instead of a matter of days. The sun had begun to set, but she smiled as they walked down a path that had been lit with torches tha
t had obviously been left burning by her other mates so she wouldn’t have to walk through the woods in the dark.

  When they entered the clearing, she was shocked to see a large tent made of a shimmering bronze fabric was set up in the center. The tent reminded her of images she had seen in the archives of exotic desert tribes that lived long ago and she shot a questioning glance at Thorn.

  “You did not think that we would make you sleep on the ground, did you? Remember, your magic males provide for you, always.” Thorn gave her a gentle push forward. “Go to him. Xavier is waiting for you.”

  Giving him a kiss goodbye, she opened the flap and walked inside and came to a stop as she saw Xavier. He stood naked in the center of the room, right in front of the large wooden pole holding up the shimmering fabric of the tent. His perfect golden body bathed in the candlelight that filled the darkened interior of the tent. He had a warrior’s stance, with his hands on his hip, legs braced apart and his long, thick cock jutting out proudly from between his legs.

  Giving the room a once over, she was impressed at their ability to weave magic where there had been nothing but barren land. Inside the tent there was a huge mattress on the floor, with a dark-ruby colored blanket and various jewel-toned pillows on it, and off to the two sides of the room were two other comfortable looking pallets. They had explained to her earlier that each night she would sleep surrounded by two of her mates at her sides, while the other two slept separately. They would alternate nights, which suited her just fine, unless they pissed her off. Then she would banish all of them from her bedroom until she forgave them.

  “Come here, Alexis,” Xavier demanded. “Come claim what is yours.”

  His commanding tone didn’t irk her. She could feel his joy at seeing her through their bond, and decided to embrace his playful mood by getting into character. Since he very much looked like a conquering warrior, she removed the shirt and pants Thorn had dressed her in after their time at the pool using her magic, and donned an outfit more fitting for a harem. The wispy material of the small top covered her breasts and she had created a skirt that sat low on her hips made of two small panels of cloth that barely hid the sight of her pussy and ass from view. She’d chosen a silver material that matched her lover’s eyes, and knew she had surprised him with her daring.

  Feeling bold, she stepped further into the light, walking toward him slowly so he could look his fill. She was pleased with the lust she saw shining from Xavier’s bright silver eyes, and put a little more sway into her hips as she moved.

  “Are you mine, warrior?” she whispered seductively when she was a few feet away from him.

  “Aye, I am, mate. Body, heart and soul I am yours and pledge myself to you.”

  His dark vow thrilled her. Walking closer until she was right in front of him, she looked into his glowing eyes and reveled in the hunger she saw there. She knew that this day had been a testament of his self-control and his need to provide her with what she needed. Throughout the day she could feel him in her mind and knew that it had taken every ounce of his self-control not to seek her out and take her liked he wanted. Instead, he had allowed her time with her other mates to show her that her needs came first.

  She knew how much that self-restraint had cost him, and it made her love him even more.

  “If that is true, perhaps it is you who needs to claim me,” she said coyly.

  His eyes burned brighter at the challenge. “I claimed you the first time I touched you, mate. You will never doubt it again once I am through with you this night.”

  Being with her mates gave her a sexual freedom she had never known before. She could be herself, and she knew they would never make her feel silly or stupid. It was acceptance on such a level that gave her the confidence to do anything. They loved her for who she was and didn’t want to change her. For someone who had never belonged before it was the most precious gift they could have ever given her.

  “Then I will have to show you that you are claimed as well, my warrior.”

  Fire burned in her belly and she saw no reason to wait for what she wanted and she gave into her need to have him. He reached for her, but she avoided his grasp as she went down to her knees in front of him. Looking up at him, she saw the pleasure burning in his gaze as his jaw clenched.

  “Claim me, Alexis. Open that pretty little mouth for me and suckle my cock, mate.”

  Alexis admired the massive erection bobbing before her and she gripped it, loving the feeling of him throbbing in her hand. She opened her mouth and her tongue came out to lick at the drop of pre-cum on the head of his cock, teasing him. She heard him let out a vicious growl and she enjoyed the way the thick stalk jerked in her grasp.

  She did it again, looking up at him under veiled lashes. “I think my mate likes that.”

  “Aye. You know I do, mate. Now cease teasing me and suckle my cock. Show me who it belongs to.”

  His commanding tone had her thighs clenching to prevent the liquid heat spilling from her pussy from dripping down her thighs even as challenge had her snapping, “This cock belongs to me,” she growled at him.

  “Prove it,” he shot back.

  Alexis opened wide, taking him into her mouth as her lips wrapped around his cock. Using her tongue, she lashed at the three ridges underneath the head of his cock, relishing the harsh snarl that tore from his throat. She could feel his pleasure surging through their bond, and her hand went down between her own legs to stroke at her clit while she sucked him.

  “Nay, mate. That is my pussy. This night you do not get to touch my pussy without my permission. In fact, I believe with four mates you will never have any need to touch it yourself.”

  Her eyes narrowed at his command and she removed the hand from between her legs and reached up to grab his ass instead. She felt the taut muscles clench in response and she drew him in until the head of his massive cock hit the back of her throat then pulled back only to do it again. Her grip tightened possessively on the base of his cock and she started working her mouth over him, showing him she owned him.

  Alexis felt his hand shove into her hair, but he didn’t force her to take more of him. Instead he anchored himself as she pleasured him, and the sharp pain as his grip tightened made her even hotter. She let out a moan as she began moving her head faster, sucking and stroking his cock.

  “Fuck, it feels too good. No more, little one. I do not want to spill my seed down your throat this time. Enough.”

  Pulling at her hair, his hips moved back so his cock left her mouth with a pop. Frowning in disappointment, Alexis wanted to protest but when he reached down and threw her onto the large bed she smiled in anticipation. Spreading her legs, she removed her clothing with a thought, allowing him to see her slick pussy waiting for him.

  “Look at how wet you are, little one. And it is all for me. Tell me. Tell me who you belong to.” Xavier growled.

  Wanting him too much to deny him, she whispered, “You.”

  “Louder. Say it louder,” he demanded harshly as he knelt down between her legs.

  “I belong to you, Xavier,” she yelled at him as she jerked at his hair. “Now you show me.”

  He reached between them, and purred as his clever fingers moved through the slickness seeping from her pussy. “I think this is proof, mate.”

  “Not enough,” she panted, wanting to impale herself on his fingers that stroked and teased her slit.

  “Then spread your legs wider and invite me inside you, mate. Do it now!” he commanded and she quickly did as he asked. Before she could say anything more, he levered over her and shoved his cock deep inside her pussy, thrusting until he filled her completely. She gasped as her body strained to accept him, but the slight burn had her pussy creaming even more as his rough possession.

  “Oh god, Xavier!”

  “Do you like that, mate? Do you like the feeling of my cock filling your tight little pussy?”

  “Yes,” she moaned, wanting him to move, to stroke inside her, but he held still.r />
  “You belong to me. Your pussy and your pleasure belongs to me.” He stroked her face lovingly, startling her with the gesture. “And who do I belong to, mate?” he asked softly.

  “Me,” she whispered, knowing it was true. “You belong to me. Mark me, Xavier. I want you to mark me as yours.”

  The approval she saw in his glowing eyes filled her heart with joy. He rolled them to the side then placed a fist over his heart and laid his other hand over her heart.

  “You are my light, my love and my life. With this mark I share my magic and my heart with you. I vow to protect you, to ensure your happiness above all, and love you for all the days we are together in this life, until we are reunited in the next.”

  The light flow from beneath his palm to engulf her left side as his magic marked her as his mate for all to see, completing the tattoo so that both sides of her body had the gold and silver lines etched on her. She felt their possession, their mark on her like a phantom touch that teased and tantalized even as it comforted her. It made her feel like she was being embraced by all four of them. When he ran his fingertips lightly over the dragon’s claw covering her left breast it was a stroke that went deeper than her skin, straight to her core.

  “I love you, Xavier.”

  “I love you, too, Alexis. I have something else I need to ask of you.”

  The hesitation she sensed within him had her sobering. His silver eyes glowed with intensity as he pushed her onto her back and braced himself over her, his cock throbbing inside her pussy so they were intimately connected. “I want to plant my seed inside you.”

  She smiled saucily at him. “I want that, too.”

  He shook his head slowly and she watched as his throat worked when he swallowed. Stars, watching his throat shouldn’t turn her on, but it did. His serious expression had her sobering and after a long pause, she began to worry.

  “Is something wrong, Xavier?”

  “Nay, mate. It is just…I want to put my babe in your belly. Now.”
