Catching the way Gage stiffened behind her, she resisted the urge to glance at him. It was very important that they didn’t give away their alliance. “It won’t come to that, because I’ll never submit to you.” She kept her resolve and held her chin high, letting him know in no uncertain terms that his so-called charm was lost on her. Honestly, how could she possibly feel anything for him, not when her strange fascination and feelings for Gage ran so deep. The connection between the two was all-consuming.
Charm dissolving, Lucifer growled. As his eyes flashed yellow, fire raced up the stone walls around her. He cocked his head, an acrid smile on his face. “It is not wise to talk to your Master in such a way.”
“You’ll never be my Master,” she assured him.
“There are other ways, Jaddy,” he threatened and ran his finger over the oaken table, his dark, dirty claws slicking through the hardwood like a hot knife through butter. “Ways that might not be so pleasant for you.” A moment later, the horned beast gathered himself, as though realizing he’d catch more bees with honey, or more souls with his demonic charm.
“Perhaps you are just tired from your journey.” He snapped his fingers and two of his female companions curled up on either side of him, mewling and purring as they began to rub up against him. Seemingly preoccupied for the night and growing bored with Jadyn, he turned to Gage and said, “Take her back to her cell, and maybe when she gets hungry, she’ll see things differently.”
Jadyn stood to leave, and Gage moved in beside her, standing close but never touching. He gestured with a grunt for her to walk back to her chamber. Obliging, she tore her gaze from Lucifer’s and made her way toward the long hall. Once inside her room, she let out a breath she hadn’t realized she was holding and turned to Gage.
Her thoughts fragmented when he put his mouth close to her ear and whispered, “You did good out there, baby girl. Real good. Keep that up and you’ll be out of here in no time at all.”
Jadyn swallowed and could feel the passion rising in Gage. “That’s because his charm was lost on me.”
Instantly distracted as he seduced her senses, she stepped closer, until their bodies touched. Rich, intense eyes met hers. “Good, then my plan is working.”
“Plan?”
“My plan to distract you with my charm.”
God, just his sexy voice curled her toes. “I thought you said you didn’t have any special charm.”
His eyes darkened with lust, and urgent need colored his voice. “I don’t. I have something better.”
“What’s that?” she asked, her breath coming a little faster, a little raspier.
He fingered her chamois top, then crushed her body to his. “Instead of telling you, how about I show you?” he murmured. With that his lips found hers and drew her in for a soul-searching kiss. His hands raced over her body, pushing and pulling, taking and giving almost frantically. “I need you again, baby. I can’t get enough of you.”
“Is this still a part of your plan?” she asked, hardly able to believe she could find her voice. She raced her hands over him in return, unable to compose herself.
He inched back and met her glance. The intensity in his dark eyes made her breath catch. “I think you know it’s not. I think you feel this thing between us every bit as much as I do,” he said, as though needing her to understand that this was about more than just sex. “You do, don’t you Jadyn?”
She raked her fingers through his hair and brought his mouth back to hers, answering him with her actions. His body practically vibrated from her touch.
Warm hands shaped her body, touching her breasts, between her legs and sliding around her to cup her ass. He squeezed until pleasure bled into pain. “I need to make love to you now, everywhere,” he whispered into her mouth. “While I still can, while you’re still here.” There was an urgency in his voice she hadn’t heard before.
She reached out and traced the hard contours of his face, understanding what he was saying. Leaving hell meant leaving him, too. She looked into his eyes and saw a mixture of love, sadness, pain and vulnerability. “Gage—”
“Shh,” he whispered and gathered her into his arms. “Let’s not think, let’s just feel.”
God, she had never felt such bone-deep warmth before. When she nodded her acquiescence, he growled deep in his throat and added, “You make me feel again, baby. And it’s been so damn long since I’ve felt anything at all, especially anything good.”
The passion in his voice curled her toes and heat surged through her veins. His eyes glimmered with dark sensuality as he touched her with intimate recognition. She drew a breath, having never dealt with these kinds of powerful emotions before, either.
Determined to make every moment together count, she stood back and ripped off her clothes, exposing her body to him. Her nipples tightened and her pussy moistened under his lascivious gaze.
Without censor, she said, “Take me, Gage. Everywhere.”
Cage growled and snaked his burning hands around her waist, pulling her against him, as though he was branding her as his for eternity. His lips crashed down on hers and his hungry tongue slashed the insides of her mouth, and her need for him was as frightening as it was exciting. Desire twisted her insides as she widened her legs. Reading her invitation, he pushed her up against the wall, momentarily stepping back to tear off his own clothes before moving close again.
His forehead pebbling with moisture, he gripped her hips and lifted her, positioning his cock near her hot entrance. “Put your legs around me,” he said, his voice harsh, labored, his muscles tightening.
When she wrapped her thighs around his hips, his cock breached her opening. Jadyn groaned low and bucked forward. “God, that feels so good.”
He powered his hips forward, reacquainting her with his long, hard cock and making her feel deliciously full. His warm, masculine scent reached her nostrils and mingled with her own aroused aroma. Her heart swelled and she felt so close to him at that moment. Raking her fingers through his hair, she held him to her and buried her face in his neck. “Gage…,” she murmured into his throat.
He drove into her, hard and fast, filling her with more than just his cock. In no time at all her sex muscles clenched around his thickness. As their bodies collided, he continued to fuck her while she rode out each delicious wave of release. Her hot cream poured over him and her pulsing muscles pulled him deeper. With his fingers biting into her hips, he growled into her hair.
Her body craved the feel of his seed inside her. “Come for me,” she whispered. “Let me feel it.”
“Not yet. I need to be inside you everywhere first.”
With that he eased his cock out of her, but her protest was lost on a moan when his lips found hers and he kissed her until she was nearly delirious with pleasure.
He slid his hand around to cup her ass, his fingers toying with her crevice, touching lightly, massaging gently, letting her get used to the feeling.
A short while later he pulled her away from the wall. His dark, intense gaze met hers and his nostrils flared when he said, “Get on the bed.”
Jadyn lowered herself onto the bed and widened her legs. When he shook his head, she frowned.
She glanced at him, questioning. “What?”
His smoldering gazed raced over her breasts, and her nipples tightened in response. “Sit up, baby.”
Immediately reading his intent, Jadyn sat up, gathered her breasts into her hands and squeezed. “Did you want to fuck me here?” she asked seductively, running her tongue over her bottom lip, hoping to drive him as wild as he was driving her.
Gage’s chest rose and fell in an erratic pattern as he watched her, and she could tell it was taking all his control not to ravish her like an animal in heat.
Using his pre-cum as lubricant, he rubbed his cock until it was glistening. Jadyn crooked her finger, urging him closer. He closed the small distance between them and threw his head back when his cock slipped into the tight crevice Jadyn had made with her breasts.
&n
bsp; “You are so beautiful, baby girl.” He cupped the back of her head and met her gaze. His eyes dimmed with desire and never left hers while he pushed his cock in and out from between her swollen breasts.
Jadyn moved her body slowly and fucked him in return. His cock was so hard she could feel the vein running along the back pulse with heated blood. With each upward thrust, she flicked her tongue out to taste him, and his groans of pleasure thrilled her. Together they established a rhythm, until his finger gripped her hair hard and she suspected he was hovering on the precipice.
Gage pulled back. “On your knees, baby. There is one more place I need to be.”
Jadyn turned on the bed and got up on her knees. The position opened up her ass nicely to him. Gage reached between her thighs, coated his fingers with her pussy cream and lubricated her back passage. He slipped a finger in to heat and prepare her muscles for his thickness. One finger led to two as he stretched her and relaxed her tight fissure.
She felt her pussy begin swelling and dripping with anticipation of things to come, craving his hard cock inside her ass, needing to have him touch her in a way no one had ever touched her before. “Gage, please,” she begged, aching for him to ride her until he’d been inside her body, everywhere.
“Are you ready for me, baby?” God, he sounded like he was in agony. She twisted her head to search his face. Her eyes swept over him and she considered what she saw. Her heart lodged somewhere in her throat when she glimpsed the powerful emotions passing over his eyes.
As need unfurled inside her, she swallowed and began rocking, telling him through her actions just how ready she was. Just how much she reciprocated those feelings.
Gage stepped close, ran soft fingers over her ass cheeks and then gently eased them open. When her puckered passage tightened in response to his invasive touch, he leaned forward and whispered, “Easy baby. I’m not going to hurt you. Now open up for me.”
Brushing the tip of his cock over her opening, he lingered there, teasing and playing with her for a bit, making her wild with need before he eased his engorged head inside. A soft, sexy moan curled around him, alerting him to her arousal. As her beautiful body opened for him, he offered her one inch at a time until she was writhing restlessly against him. With one last thrust he practically drove his balls inside her.
Once he was buried deep in her body, he stilled and let her get used to the fullness. He leaned into her, pressing his chest against her back and spending a long moment toying with her puckered clit. As he drove her into a frenzy of need, she began moving against his hand, rocking back and forth, and riding both his deft fingers and his cock simultaneously.
With her thrusts encouraging him to ride her and ride her hard, he began to move, rocking his hips and joining them as one. One hand surfed her back, touching her as though he couldn’t get enough, and in no time at all she felt his body stiffen. He growled and released high up inside her. “Jadyn…baby…,” he murmured.
Satisfaction rolled through her as he filled her with his seed. He remained inside her, working to regulate his breathing before he slid in beside her, pulled her to him and held her close. Soon his lips found hers again. His kiss was deep and sensual and even though they were both exhausted, he took her again and again until their bodies gave out.
Standing outside her cell, Gage watched her lids spring open and her gaze dart around her room, as though she was trying to find her way out of the fog. Much to his reluctance, he’d slipped from her bed in the wee hours of the morning and had resumed his guard at her door.
Twenty-four hours had passed since she’d first arrived, which meant that she only had another twenty-four to go. She had to stay strong and courageous, and continue to fight Lucifer’s charm. Gage would stand by her side the entire time, offering her his strength and support, and praying the impenetrable bond between them was enough to get her back to her body.
When her eyes met his, a smile touched her mouth, and memories of last night came rushing back, nearly knocking Gage off balance. His heart filled with warmth as he ached to go to her and make sweet love to her again and again as if they hadn’t a care in the world. But that would have to wait, because upon her awakening, he had strict orders to bring her to Lucifer. Gage would follow those orders for the time being, no need for Lucifer to suspect that he’d sided with his charge, but if things went too far, got out of control, he’d have no choice but to intervene, because no way would he allow the bastard to claim her.
“Good morning,” she murmured. “What time is it?”
His voice had taken on a hard edge to show the severity of his words when he said, “Time to take on Lucifer again and show him what you’re made of.” Then he softened his tone when he added, “You can do this, baby. You’re over halfway there.”
She nodded in understanding, stood and pulled on her clothes. The bowl of root vegetables beside her bed caught her attention, and she shot him a grateful glance before she dug in with fevered hunger.
A short while later Gage guided her to Lucifer’s hot spring, which was merely a cracked opening in the charred ground. Her back starched, Jadyn stood before him, observing the various sexual acts taking place around, and in, the scalding water. Everything from ménages to bondage were readily available should one wish to partake. Gage watched Jadyn stiffen even further and shift from one foot to the other as her gaze locked with Lucifer’s. Kneeling before him, one of his many abiding female companions was servicing his cock, pulling him deep into her mouth while he watched the lewd acts taking place around them all. Gage knew the degenerate bastard always did have a thing for voyeurism.
“Jaddy, relax. Join me and let the water take away your stiffness,” Lucifer said. When she shook her head, Lucifer’s eyes flashed yellow and he made a tsking sound. “Why do you insist on doing this the hard way?”
When she opened her mouth to answer, Lucifer cut her off and turned to one of his warriors. “Maybe all she needs is a good fuck to help melt away that bad disposition.”
Before his warrior could react, Gage quickly stepped in front of her. Pulling his best bad-ass face, he met Lucifer’s glance. “Why don’t you leave that discipline to me,” he said.
The room fell silent as Lucifer arched a brow and processed the information, his cold, calculating stare suspicious. Then he sniffed the air and Gage wondered if he could smell Gage’s scent on Jadyn.
His lips curled. “Well, well, this is quite a surprise,” Lucifer said, humoring him as he entertained the idea. “What’s gotten into you, Gage?” He threw his arms out on either side of himself to brace his body against the rocky backrest.
Gage turned to Jadyn, let his glance race over her body, and wet his dry lips. With renewed concentration, he went on to explain, “She’s been giving me a shitload of grief and it’d be my pleasure to break the little spitfire in.” After a long, thorough inspection of her barely clad body, Gage turned back to Lucifer and said, “So what do you say? I think I’m just the guy to fuck the hostility right out of her.”
All the while gauging Gage’s reactions, Lucifer waved his hand at his warrior, a message for him to join Gage. “I’m in the mood to watch a little double entry,” he announced, his amber eyes glistening with a mixture of anticipation and distrust.
Fisting his hands behind his back, Gage commanded himself not to flinch, not to show any outward display of emotion as he worked to figure out a way to keep Lucifer’s dog at bay, the best way to protect her.
“If there’s one thing I like, it’s a little back-door entry.”
The familiar voice came from behind. Gage angled his head to see Brand step up beside him. As his friend intervened, Gage practically let out a loud breath of relief.
Brand shot Lucifer a sardonic glance. “You want a show, then I’ll give you a show.”
Gage watched his friend circle Jadyn, who in turn watched him carefully. Relieved that Brand had come to his rescue and feeling a measure of comfort that Jadyn’s body was in Brand’s care, Gage relaxe
d his fists.
Without preamble, Brand moved in behind Jadyn and pressed his solid body to hers. When she gasped, Gage moved in front of her and sandwiched her between their bodies.
Cage positioned his mouth next to her ear and whispered, “He’s my friend, and he won’t hurt you.”
She turned her head to see Brand. “Easy, baby,” he murmured in response. “I’ll try to make this as nice as possible for you.”
With that, Gage felt the tension ease from her body in small increments. Brand began running his tongue over her flesh, burying his face in the crook of her silky neck as his hands made short work of her clothes.
As basic, elemental need took hold, her skin grew hot, colored from heat. Sizzling eyes never left Gage’s as he gave her a silent message to block everyone out and just enjoy what the two men had to offer.
Gage dropped to his knees in front of her and took a long moment to admire her breasts before he swiped his tongue over her pert nipples. The warmth of his mouth brought passion to her seductive blue eyes.
Brand began working his way down her back, growling with pleasure when he reached her curvaceous ass.
Gage pressed a finger between her legs and circled her clit, working to arouse her before Brand took her from behind. Her eyes slipped shut, and her head rolled to the side as her legs widened for them both. “That’s a girl,” he whispered as he kissed a path to her hot cunt.
Forgetting all about their audience, Gage lowered his head, breathed in her feminine scent and then pressed his mouth to her heat while Brand, in turn, dipped into her puckered backside. A deep, wheezing sound escaped her lips as she squirmed against them.
Her skin tightened beneath his mouth as the two men worked their tongues over her body, slowly building her passion until she was delirious with need and undoubtedly thinking of nothing but the pleasure they were offering her. Her body shook and vibrated beneath their careful ministrations. Within seconds she began rocking against them, her soft moans of pleasure cutting through the thick, heavy air.
Her voice came out low, sultry. “Yess…,” she moaned, and raked her hands through Gage’s hair, holding his face to her cunt as he lapped at her liquid desire. Sensing she was close, he pushed two thick fingers inside her and brushed over her G-spot until her muscles began spasming.
