Dragon Isle Boxed Set, Books 4-6: Lost to the Dragon, Beware of Dragons, and Catching the Dragon

by Stern, Sophie

  He motioned for Jasmine to follow him and carried Audrey to a private room.

  4

  Gabriel kissed the submissive goodbye before she walked off with her group of friends. Most submissives want some sort of aftercare, but not that one. She just wanted to play. She had come to The Dungeon for a bachelorette party and he guessed it was a night she’d never forget.

  He’d never forget it either.

  When Gabriel had looked out into the crowd and spotted Audrey wrapped in Anthony’s grasp, he had been shocked. For a brief second, he had felt jealous, then realized Anthony was just as surprised to see her as he had been.

  He saw the way Jasmine gripped Audrey’s hand and he realized she had sneaked her friend into The Dungeon. For what purpose, Gabriel didn’t know, but he intended to get to the bottom of it.

  He couldn’t believe she had climaxed in the middle of the crowd. Sweet, innocent Audrey had come apart in Anthony’s arms like a fucking dream and all he could think about as he spilled into the brunette was that he wished Audrey had been the one kneeling in front of him.

  Fuck.

  He tried to calm down before he went into the private rooms. That was where they were, he knew. Anthony had conveyed, without words, that this wasn’t what Gabriel thought. That was good, because what he thought was that his best friend was getting Audrey off without him.

  What had actually happened was so much hotter.

  He had been in the middle of a mediocre blowjob when Audrey’s eyes, glazed over with arousal, had found his. Anthony had somehow managed to wrap his arm around her and slide a finger down beneath her perfect little panties and oh, Gabriel would bet the club that she’d never come like that before.

  Had Audrey woken up this morning and decided to be a little sex kitten? Had she found out they had a club and decided to check it out? Or had she come with a friend and been surprised to see him and Anthony? He didn’t know, but he was going to find out, one way or another. His days of waiting were over.

  He waltzed by the dungeon monitor who kept watch over the private rooms.

  “They’re in four, boss,” the guard called out, and Gabriel walked to room number four, opened the door without knocking, and closed it behind him.

  Anthony was standing in the center of the room with his back to the door. Jasmine and Audrey were kneeling demurely in front of him with their heads bowed and their hands on their knees. His cock stirred, already growing hard again at the site of Audrey on her knees.

  And that fucking corset.

  It was going to be the death of him.

  “Care to explain what happened out there tonight?” Gabriel asked Anthony, ignoring the submissives. He would deal with them when he had calmed down a bit. Or a lot.

  “Audrey has been having quiet time to think about what she wants to say,” Anthony responded. “Now that you’re here, perhaps she’s ready to talk.” He turned back to Audrey, whose head was still bowed. Smart girl. Maybe he wouldn’t have to punish her. Much.

  “Audrey?” Gabriel took a deep breath and took his place next to Anthony. “Why are you here?”

  Nothing. She didn’t move or look up.

  “Answer him, Audrey,” Anthony’s voice was firmer than his, darker. Still, she said nothing. Gabriel felt exasperated. Was she afraid? Is that why she wasn’t talking? Was she nervous?

  Jasmine reached over and quietly squeezed Audrey’s hand. That seemed to be all the motivation she needed. Audrey looked up then, with tears in her eyes, and whispered.

  “I came here tonight to see The Dungeon. I didn’t know about it before this evening.”

  “Why didn’t you just ask one of us to bring you? We would have.” Gabriel ran a hand through his long hair. He needed to cut it, but he couldn’t bring himself to. Audrey had told him once she liked guys with long hair, and he’d kept it long ever since. Just for her.

  “I didn’t want one of you to bring me,” she whispered. Gabriel’s heart fell for a moment, then Audrey met his gaze and she said, “I wanted both of you. Together. I’m in love with you and I wasn’t sure how to tell you. I wanted to see for myself what sort of things you liked, so I would know…so maybe, maybe you’d want me to be a part of them.”

  Fuck.

  Gabriel risked a glance at his best friend. This was obviously a shock to the man, as well. They both sort of gaped at her, not sure what to say. This was everything they had been dreaming about and it had happened so suddenly, so unexpectedly. Neither one of them had woken up that morning and planned for Audrey to appear so deliciously.

  “Jasmine?” Anthony turned to her, finally.

  “Yes, Master?” Jasmine, smartly, did not look up.

  “Tell no one you sneaked in a submissive without permission. Tonight didn’t happen. Go home. You’re on one-month suspension from the club. If I see you here before then, I’ll ban you.”

  “Yes, Master.” Jasmine kissed Audrey on the cheek, whispered “Good luck,” then rose gracefully and left the room. Obviously, Jasmine was smart enough to know that arguing would earn her a punishment and it would likely be one she did not enjoy.

  As soon as they were alone, Gabriel picked Audrey up and carried her to the bed at the back of the room. He sat down and held her in his lap. Both of his arms were around her and he began stroking her hair. She was still crying softly.

  Oh, they had so much to talk about.

  The bed dipped as Anthony sat down next to him and wrapped his arms around both of them. They sat like that for a long time. Finally, Audrey stopped crying. By that point, the men were ready to talk.

  “I’m sorry,” she whispered. “I shouldn’t have come. I’m really embarrassed.” She blushed and cringed at the same time. She tried to pull away, but Gabriel held her tightly.

  “I’m afraid the time for leaving has come and gone, love. You’re here to stay now.”

  Anthony reached out and stroked her cheek. Audrey leaned into his touch, as if she was perfectly aware that this was how things needed to be.

  “How long have you felt this way, Audrey?” Gabriel was the one to speak first.

  “Forever,” she whispered, staring at her hands. “Since I was a teenager. I moved away to try to clear my mind, to stop thinking about you, but I never could. Finally, I decided to move back and try to get you to fall in love with me.” She chuckled softly. “Pretty stupid, huh?”

  Gabriel lifted her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze.

  “I love you, Audrey. I’ve always loved you. I only wish you had told me sooner how you felt.” She looked from Gabriel to Anthony and back again. Anthony nodded.

  “It’s true, darling. We’ve both loved you from a distance for a very long time.” His eyes locked on Audrey’s as if there was nothing else in the world.

  And there wasn’t.

  For so long, they had wanted her, craved her. They had thought of her endlessly and now she was here with them. She was alone with the monsters and she had no idea what they wanted to do to her, how they wanted to strip her down, how they wanted to own her body, her mind, her very soul.

  “What happens now?” Audrey asked. She suddenly seemed very interested in the floorboards of the room. Oh no, she was not going to get all shy on them now. Not after that show out in the main room. Gabriel may have come already, but he was already rock hard again and looking for more.

  He needed more.

  “What do you want from us, Audrey?” Anthony asked gently. Too gently. Gabriel shot his friend a look of surprise. Usually, Anthony was the ultimate Dom, the one Gabriel could count on when things got tricky with a sub. Usually Anthony was the hard-ass and Gabriel got to play the understanding guy, the gentle one, the carefree one.

  “I, um, I…”

  “Sweetie, you’re going to have to tell us.” Gabriel hoped he didn’t sound too sharp, but what the fuck? This was Audrey. Sweet, beautiful, innocent Audrey had walked straight into the club and confessed her undying love.

  What had she been thinking?


  Part of Gabriel was so relieved she had done it that he wanted to wrap her up in his arms and promise to be with her forever. The other half was so pissed he wanted to tie her to a cross and flog her. She had waltzed into a club full of shifters without so much as a proper Dom guiding her and she had been dressed like a little angel without even a collar to protect her from leering Doms.

  She had been dressed like a fucking virginal sacrifice waiting for her prince to take her.

  Gabriel was no prince, but he knew Audrey wouldn’t be leaving the club untouched. She was finally his. Theirs. And they would take everything she had. She couldn’t just walk away. Not now. Not after all of this.

  “I want everything,” she whispered. And just like that, Gabriel was done for. He strode across the room, swept her up into his arms, and kissed her. Her mouth was open and soft and wet. She was ready for him. Oh, she might not know it yet, but she was so ready for him.

  She moaned as Gabriel embraced her. Anthony moved behind her so that her back was to his chest. He wrapped around her, pushing her further into Gabriel’s arms.

  A sense of completion wrapped over him. This was finally happening. Audrey was wrapped up in his arms and he was about to share her with his brother, his best friend.

  “We’ll give you everything we have, darling. Everything is yours. We’ve wanted you for so long. We aren’t about to let you go now.”

  Audrey wanted to pinch herself. Was she dreaming? She couldn’t be. She just couldn’t. She had woken up this morning absolutely certain that her day would be boring and ordinary. Most of all, she thought it would be lonely.

  It hadn’t been.

  No, Jasmine had swept her off her stupid feet, dressed her up, and made her feel like a gorgeous little fuck toy.

  When they had sneaked into The Dungeon, Audrey felt certain they would be caught. After all, she hadn’t been in a dungeon in a long, long time. Not since college. Not since her crazy Dom boyfriend who was certain she was submissive.

  She had discovered that she enjoyed these games, this lifestyle, this form of play and communication. She loved being able to give herself up for a little while to the whims of her lovers. She loved being able to relax and know that she would be cared for.

  Audrey had spent her life running around in circles. She worried about other people. She tried to please them. Being human on an island of dragons meant she had to make herself useful. In retrospect, she knew Gabriel and Anthony were probably watching out for her for years.

  Still, she had felt like she had to prove something. Audrey had worked her tail off to make sure she was useful and important. She had gotten perfect grades, gone to the right college, and dated picture-perfect men.

  Why then, had she never felt as content as she did nestled between Gabe and Tony?

  Gabriel kissed her and Anthony pressed up behind her. They had literally made an Audrey sandwich and she was about to be devoured by the hungry dragons.

  Anthony kissed her neck, then moving slowly to her shoulders. He bit down, baring his teeth, definitely leaving little marks on her flesh.

  All she could focus on was them. The room disappeared and her fears fled and for a moment, her insecurities and doubts all vanished.

  For a moment, she was just Audrey: sex debutante. For a moment, she was in heaven.

  Then Gabriel stopped kissing her and Anthony moved away.

  “It’s time to talk, pet.”

  Her heart sunk as she realized they didn’t want her after all. Why else would they have stopped kissing her? She wanted them. She’d said that. Hell, they’d said that. They’d said forever. They’d said they had wanted her for a long time. She wanted everything. What was there to talk about?

  Gabriel sat down on the bed and patted the spot next to him. Reluctantly, Audrey pulled away from Anthony’s warmth and sat down. Anthony quickly took the other side of her, effectively locking her into position. She was all theirs now, that was for sure.

  Hadn’t they already talked enough? Did they really have anything else to say?

  To Audrey’s surprise, it was Gabriel who took the lead. She’d always considered him a bit of a player. He liked mischief and pretty girls, but she hadn’t really considered him a Dom. Obviously, she had been wrong. He gripped her chin and turned her face so she had nowhere to look but up.

  Up at the dragon.

  “You came to a sex club.”

  “Yes.”

  “Sir,” he growled.

  “Yes, Sir.” Fuck. How was she forgetting everything she’d learned? She was no wilting flower. She was no innocent. Yet somehow, she had completely ignored the fact that she was the weak little sub and they were the big, powerful Doms.

  “You came without an escort, Audrey.” Now it was Anthony who spoke, and though his voice was gentle, there was a hidden edge to it, a harshness she knew meant business.

  “Jasmine was with me,” she protested, but Gabriel shook his head.

  “Don’t play dumb, Audrey. You’re too smart for that. For you to dress up in this outfit and to be comfortable enough to come in front of an audience,” his eyes flared as he allowed them to roam up and down her body briefly. For just a moment, she felt completely naked beneath his gaze. A shiver shot through her. “I’m guessing you have some sort of BDSM experience. Let’s hear it.”

  “What?” She squeaked out. They wanted to do this here? Now? But they had just been kissing! She went from completely aroused to completely nervous and it had happened so quickly. The rollercoaster of secretly loving these men from afar was nothing compared to what she was feeling now.

  They wanted to hear about her past? Now? Before she was with them?

  “Baby,” Anthony stroked her spine softly, playfully. She didn’t want to admit that his touch alone was calming her, but it was. “We need to know what you’ve been through, what your experience is. You were gone for a long time. What happened to you in the big, bad world? Did you ever visit a club?”

  “Yes,” she whispered. Her voice came out breathy and needy.

  “Tell me about it,” Gabriel growled, kneeling in front of her. He pulled her feet onto his legs and began running his hands up and down her calves. It shouldn’t have been sexy, but like the shoulder rub, it calmed her immensely.

  “I went with my boyfriend,” she whispered, suddenly both embarrassed and aroused. What would they think if they knew all the weird, dirty stuff their “innocent” little friend had done?

  Gabriel started gently nibbling Audrey’s toes and feet, then worked his way up her leg. Oh, she wanted him to go just a little bit higher, just a little bit. He made it to her thighs and she thrust her hips forward, silently encouraging him to pay just a bit of attention to her aching pussy, but he slapped her pussy lips in response.

  A little bit of pain shot through her body, following by a shot of warmth and desire.

  Oh, he had no idea how much she wanted more of that, how much she needed it.

  Anthony growled softly: a low, feral sound. It shot straight to her pussy, making her more wet.

  “Stay with us, love. This is important. Tell me about the club. What did you like? What didn’t you like?”

  “Yes,” Gabriel looked up at her. “And tell us who you played with.”

  “W-W-What do you need to know what for?”

  “Oh, I don’t know,” Gabriel grinned up at her and ran a finger through her soft folds. She closed her eyes. She was so fucking close. He had to know that, though. He was toying with her. He had to know she was about to come if he didn’t just lean over and suck her clit. “Maybe I want to know if you like men, or women, or more than one at a time. Maybe I want to know if you like fucking in front of an audience. Maybe I want to know if you’ve ever been fucked by two people at the same time, pet. Humor me. I’ll make it worth your while.”

  He leaned forward and blew softly on her clit. Her entire pussy clenched, aching for him, silently begging him to put any part of himself inside of her.

 
; At this point, she would take anything.

  “I went with my boyfriend. We used to fuck and play there. We scened. Some of the Doms used me in demos for new couples occasionally. Never sex stuff. Just rope-tying demonstrations and that sort of thing.”

  “Group sex?” Anthony asked.

  “Once.”

  Anthony raised an eyebrow.

  “Surprised?” She breathed out, wondering if he thought less of her, but knowing that he didn’t. She wasn’t as innocent as they had thought.

  “Yes,” he said. He stroked her cheek with his hand in a soft, comforting gesture. “I thought you were much too innocent to accept the idea of taking two men, love.” He leaned in a nibbled sharply on her ear. “I would have made my move years ago if I’d known you were so naughty underneath.”

  Audrey should have been offended, but she wasn’t. He was right. She always acted uptight. She wasn’t even sure why. It had never gotten her anywhere. It had never gotten her anything but trouble. She had tried for years to be perfect, but during her time away from Dragon Isle, she had tried many different things that now seemed crazy to her.

  “What did you like about being shared, Audrey?” Gabriel asked. He licked her thigh, his eyes focused fully on her pussy. He was going to devour her just from his gaze if she didn’t figure out a way to get him to lick her there.

  She had to make a decision. Was she going to tell them as little as possible so they would let her come and then leave? Was that what she wanted? Did she want to hide the past from them so they’d never know exactly what had happened when she was younger?

  Was that really who she wanted to be moving forward? Did she want to be a hider? A liar? A loser?

  She had spent so much time hiding her feelings about everything that now, she wasn’t sure who she even was anymore.

  But she knew who she wanted to be. She wanted to be bold, brave, and seductive. She wanted to keep being that girl who came in front of a crowd. She wanted to be the girl who was so caught up in emotions and feelings that she didn’t even notice the fact she was screaming her orgasm in front of strangers.
