“Shit, what’s his name?” Skye said and closed her eyes hoping that it was one of the guys next door, although she could not imagine them sitting down with greasy Ronnie shooting the shit and talking. It would be like a King sitting with a hillbilly.
“Bob. He’s nice as nice can be. Said he was waiting for you to come over so he could surprise you. Oh, I hope I didn’t ruin it. He seemed so excited.” The woman said worriedly.
Skye closed her eyes again. “No it’s fine. I’ll be there when my shift starts.” Skye said and hung up the phone.
“Fuck, fuck, double fuck.” She yelled and then stood up and started throwing things into her bag. She needed to leave fast. Who would have thought that Bob had enough ambition to actually follow her? It was probably because she took his car and the last of his drinking money, the dumbass. She shivered and played over the last time she saw him in her mind.
***
Skye had just gotten home from a very long shift and was tired. She walked into the cramped little apartment she shared with Bob and frowned. He was asleep on the couch again with beer cans and pizza boxes littering the floor around him. She’d just worked twelve hours, because someone called in sick and he was getting drunk with her tip money. She’d become pissed.
“Bob, damnit, wake up.” She had called slamming the door behind her. The man had groaned and rubbed his hand over the white tank top he had been wearing. He used to be somewhat handsome. At least passable, when she met him. In the last year, he had gained a beer belly on her money and some serious hygiene issues. She had complained about it several times, and went so far as getting him a basket of soap and deodorant. That only pissed him off because she wasted money that he could have used drinking.
“Bob, get your ass up.” She yelled again and waded her way through the trash. “I’ve been on my feet all day today, and I’m not going to clean up after your sorry ass.”
Bob popped up off the couch and grumbled. “Shut the hell up woman. I have a hangover.”
“You need to get up and clean this mess. I’m serious. I refuse to keep cleaning up after you and your buddies.” She said with her hand on her hip. It was the first time she had actually stood up to him, but one of the ladies at the restaurant where she worked told her that she was little more than a slave to Bob. It had made her feel embarrassed and worthless.
Bob turned on her and she saw the rage in his eyes and thought that maybe she should have waited. No, she thought straightening her spine and standing to her full height and looked back at him defiantly.
“Bitch. You’ll do whatever the hell I tell you to do and like it. I own you. Who else would take your sorry ass? Now get this place cleaned up and start dinner.” He growled and looked at her closely waiting to see what she was going to do.
Skye bit the inside of her moth and tried to make a decision. She wanted out. She had planned to do this when she got more money together but now seemed as good of time as any. “No, I will not be your slave any more. Either you start getting a job and help out around here like you used to or you can leave.” She said quietly.
Bob roared. “What the fuck did you say to me? I’ll say this one more time woman and you had better listen closely. You belong to me. I think maybe you need a little reminder of that.” He said and stalked over to her.
Skye cringed when she saw the fist coming to her face. She ended up letting him go on for hours yelling at her and hitting her occasionally while he popped beer after beer while she cleaned up. She wanted to make sure that she could make it out of the house alive when he passed out. If she talked back, he would have beaten her to a pulp and then she would have been stuck. Instead, she decided to take the abuse until he passed out and then she was gone.
What scared her most was that he thought of her as a possession. Skye had not realized how sick and demented Bob actually was. She just thought he was a lazy drunk, but he was truly crazy and she was well rid of him.
***
Now he had found her. Shit, she was going to have to be very careful. Her door could be seen from the window of the restaurant. Bob was probably sitting there watching for her right now. Ronnie had surely told him where she lived. This sucked. She felt the panic rising in her chest. She was having a panic attack, she was sure of it.
Lying down on the bed, she tried to take a deep breath and calm herself but tears rolled down her cheeks and she curled up into a little ball. How had everything gotten so fucked up?
Chapter 5
Argus and Jacob had worked most of the night. Each of them only sleeping when the other was awake, to make sure their mate was safe. They had gotten a lot done. Argus had made the plans for leaving to Colorado to include Skye. While Jacob had worked on their plan to woo their sweet little mate.
They talked about the best way to make a human know that they were interested. If she were a shifter, they would have just staked their claim. But since neither of them had any clue how to handle a human, they had been forced to look on the internet and see what the hell courting was all about. It was kinda confusing, why did women insist on flowers and candy? And dinner and dancing? What was that about?
Jacob had been amused that human women were so hard to catch. This was going to be fun. He had called the local florist and arranged for roses to be delivered every hour on the hour this morning. Then the chocolates would arrive, along with spa items and champagne. Finally, they catered a private meal from the best place in town and they were delivering it to their room tonight.
They heard her get up a few minutes ago and laughed when they listened to her conversation with Ari. She was sure a little spitfire; they were going to enjoy loving her. Argus and Jacob had talked about her past and wanted to make sure that she knew that she was the most important person to them. They had even gone so far as to call their mothers and ask advice. That had been an interesting conversation.
Lena and Seila had told them that they needed to pull out all the stops. Their mate deserved romance and courting. They warned them that if they heard either of the men had been anything less than polite and charming, they would answer to them. Then they both asked when they were going to have grandbabies. They wanted to make it clear they expected it soon. Argus had laughed. That damn Prophesy was the issue. His mother knew they had to get their mate pregnant soon after mating to fulfill their destiny.
Argus had been the one to argue that they should just walk over to the room, knock on the door, and tell her she was their mate and was coming with them. Jacob laughed and said that she would probably kick him in the nuts and slam the door. It had frustrated Argus knowing his mate was in the room next door. The vents to the room had allowed her scent to drift through and drive them nuts.
More than one time they had taken turns going into the bathroom and relieving the pressure on their cocks. Argus complained of the constant hard on he had, while Jacob dreamed of being with both of his mates.
***
His fantasy was easy to think of. Argus and he would be dressed in matching red silk bottoms, while they would have a long red silk robe for Skye, she would not need a nightgown. They would start their evening drawing a bath filled with rose petals, she would soak until her skin was smooth and fragrant and then they would help her out of the large tub that was in Argus’s bedroom.
Then they would dry her off together, making sure they rubbed and caressed her together until she was begging for their touch. They would rub lotion all over her, so her skin was soft. Jacob would help her into the robe and Argus would lead her to the bedroom where they had food laid out for them.
Strawberries, whipped cream, champagne for them to feed to her. Skye would smile and run her hand over their chests showing her love and appreciation for their romantic gesture. They would lie on the bed with her in the middle, feeding each other and whispering sentiments.
Argus would pick up a glass filled with champagne and part her robe. He would pour a small trickle of the liquid on her nipple, lean over, and clean it up. She would ar
ch into his mouth loving the feel of his tongue lapping at her sensitive tips. While Jacob fed her strawberries and whipped cream.
Jacob would run the strawberries along the crease in her lips, and make sure they were covered with sweet cream. Then he would put on end of the strawberry in his mouth, lean forward and let her bite one half while he took the other. He would lap up the cream from her lips and kiss her deeply, sharing the sweet nectar from the fruit.
Then Argus would pour more of the champagne down her body until it pooled in her belly button and drip lower to her sweet mound. He would follow the trail of liquid with his tongue, making sure he cleaned every drop from her body, sucking and licking each area he touched.
When he reached her mound, he would pull a pillow from the side of the bed and position it under her hips. With her raised lower half, he would pour more of the champagne on her pussy until it was mixed with her own sweet cream.
Not to be out shown, Jacob would take a strawberry and bite it in half so the juices were flowing from it, then he would dip it into the whipped cream and spread the fruit juices and cream over her nipples. Teasing and taunting them with the soft touch, before leaning over and cleaning her off. Her nipples would be straining up at him, begging him to pay attention to them.
Argus would spread the cream around her pussy lips with his finger and then would ask Jacob for a large plump strawberry. He would smile at his mate’s intentions and hand him the largest one he could find. Of course, Argus would make sure that she would be prepared for what was to come so he would have a tube of lube sitting off to the side. While he pressed the plump strawberry into her pussy gently, so not to go too far, he would pop the tube of lube and coat his fingers to stretch out her little asshole that they planned on fucking, while he ate the fruit from her pussy.
Skye would be writhing in pleasure underneath them, not knowing who she wanted to touch her more. Jacob, who was teasing her breast, or Argus who was slowly teasing her pussy with the strawberry. When she thought that she could not take any more, Argus would lean over and begin licking the champagne and cream from her weeping pussy. One long pass with his tongue would have her bucking a little.
Jacob would lean over her so she could not move around, sucking and nipping at her breasts, up to her neck, and then to her lips. On and on, they would tease her going slowly and making her feel loved and cherished. Something she had never felt before. Something she craved he whole life.
Argus would slip first one finger in her back hole and then suck her clit into his mouth so she would concentrate on that. Flicking it with his tongue, he would build her passion until she was almost ready to come and then he would back off and allow her to catch her breath. Then he would start over again, each time adding another finger into her ass until she would be ready for them.
Jacob could almost hear her cries and moans as they pleasured her. She would become impatient, grab his hair, and pull him to where she wanted him. Of course, he would tease her and circle the area of her nipple not giving her the release she craved.
When Argus was sure she was ready, he would signal Jacob. They had already decided that because Argus was a little larger in width while he was longer, Jacob would take her ass for the first time. Argus would settle on the bed lying on his back and would pull her over him until she was straddling him. They would kiss and explore each other while Jacob got into place.
He would grab her hips and settle her over Argus’s straining cock. Jacob would reach in between her legs and run a finger through her slit, gathering her juices and then grasping his other mates cock in his hand firmly and spread her over him. Pumping him once, and then twice, making sure that they were all ready.
Jacob would lift Skye a little, then as he held Argus in his hand, he would help her lower onto him. Slowly, so he would make sure that she would feel every touch and ripple. Moving his hand, he would trail his finger to her back hole. He would push her forward, so her ass was in the air and Argus was fully seated in her pussy.
Slowly he would push into her ass with his cock. Making sure, they were all feeling the joining. He would be able to feel Argus through the small membrane separating them. Skye would whimper in pleasure from the feeling of taking her mates at the same time for the first time.
She would arch her back, pushing her breast into Argus’s lips until he was fully seated in her ass. They would then set a pace that would drive her crazy. Argus would pull out while he would push in, the friction would bring her to the brink of orgasm, and they would stop and start again. Finally, when Argus would tell him that he was close, they would pump in and out of her faster and faster until they were all moaning in pleasure.
Jacob would reach around and pinch her clit when he knew that he was going to come in her ass. Her rippling orgasm would push them over, filling her with their seed. Argus would sit up and gather her close while Jacob would press in from the back and they would each mark her on one side of her neck at the same time, forcing her into another orgasm, this time she would scream her love for them as she came.
Then Jacob realized he was dreaming, and he finished himself off with his hand, thinking of the way they would feel when they were all finally together.
***
Jacob perked up when he heard their mate moving around the room next door, but after the conversation with Ari she had began making phone calls. They listened while she checked on her car and then called the restaurant.
Argus had frowned when he realized she was thinking of running. From them? He wondered and then shook it off. No, surely she knew that they were going to claim her and so she was getting ready for them. Even a human would have realized that them staying so close to her made their intentions known.
They felt her panic through the walls and Jacob jumped and moved to the door. Something had upset their mate. Argus followed preparing himself to kick some ass.
Ari stood in front of her door, leaning on the wall, relaxed.
“What’s up?” He said to them.
“Has anyone been here?” Jacob said quickly looking around to see what had made their mate so upset.
“Nope, just me and the spiders.” He laughed and pointed to a cobweb that was on the ceiling.
Argus pushed around Jacob and Ari and knocked on Skye’s door. “Skye, honey, open up.” He demanded and listened for movement.
He shook his head at Jacob and then Jacob tried. “Baby, we are worried about you, can you let us in?”
They listened again and then heard the sobbing coming from the room. Argus frowned and looked at Jacob. Their mate was upset and they were on the other side of the door. They both felt their lions roaring inside, demanding that they get inside.
Argus checked the door knob and growled when it was locked. He looked at Ari. “Go pay the owner for a new door.” He said grimly, took the door knob in his hand, and snapped it. The lock and the door jamb cracked and the door swung open. What they saw broke their hearts.
Skye was in the middle of the bed curled in a small ball sobbing. Jacob ran to their mate, scooped her up in his arms, and ran back to their room. He settled on the bed with her in his lap and began to rock her.
Argus closed her door and followed, sitting next to them and rubbing her back. She seemed oblivious to the change in scenery or by the fact that Jacob was holding her. All she did was cry and mumble. Argus leaned down and listened to what she was saying.
“I can’t go back. I just didn’t run far enough.” She cried and the sound tore out his heart.
“Baby, you are safe. We are going to take care of everything.” He murmured into her hair.
Jacob kept rocking her, while Argus talked to her softly until her sobs subsided and she was sniffling. They knew the instant she realized that she was not alone. She stiffened in Jacobs arms and then looked around at her surroundings.
“What am I doing here?” She whispered.
“Sweetheart, you were crying. It broke our hearts to see you like that. We just wanted to take care of
you. Can you tell us why you were so upset?” Jacob said softly and kissed her forehead.
She began shaking her head and struggled to get up, but Jacob held her firmly.
“No you don’t, we want to help.” Argus said and grabbed her hand. “You need to talk to us about what is going on.”
She looked at the men and almost relented, but Argus had practically demanded that she tell him her personal business. It was really none of their concern why she was upset. They looked so interested, but fierce, and she wanted them to take care of everything. Turn over all of her problems and bask in their care, but she hardly knew them. What would they think of her getting involved with Bob and then running? They probably would think she was weak and helpless. Those days were over. Skye was opening a new chapter in her life, one where she was in control.
“Please let me up.” She whispered and Jacob sighed and opened his arms allowing her to stand up. “While I appreciate your offer, I can deal with things on my own.” She said and put her chin up. “I just had to have a normal chicks cry this morning. No big deal. It was nice to meet you both.” Skye said and walked to the door.
