Creed realized that he did understand some of what she was worried about. He’d often worried that once he found his mate and they’d bonded he wouldn’t be able to keep his mind on the sleuth as he should with so much of her tied up in him. Then when he’d realized that he and Shayne would be sharing a mate he worried that instead of helping to diffuse the emotions and awareness of his mate in his head, he’d end up with his brother’s presence there as well.
He sighed and looked down at the floor for a few seconds. It wasn’t that he didn’t want them there close to him, but concentrating on his sleuth was his job as the Ursus. The nagging thought that he had also worried that his mate would be able to sense his lack of intense feelings and emotions for her. It would hurt her to think that he wasn’t happy with her. At the time, Creed had thought that keeping a tight control of his bear and the violence that was always so near the surface would dampen his emotions and make him appear cold to those around him. He had stopped worrying as much with Shayne on board, but now, with his true mate less than five feet away from him, he couldn’t help but wonder if she would be offended or hurt once they sealed their mating bond only to find out that she still didn’t have all of him like she would Shayne.
He became aware of his brother whispering softly in Serenity’s ear. She’d relaxed slightly in his sibling’s arms. No doubt Shayne was telling her that everything was going to be fine and that they would never treat her that way. Maybe his brother was speaking too soon. Already he felt the need to dominate her and keep her safe. He could already tell allowing her to go anywhere without his protection was going to be a challenge.
“Serenity, honey. Haven’t you been around other shifter groups since you’ve been out on your own? They’re not all like the ones you came from.” Creed sighed as she shook her head even before he finished speaking.
“I’ve been around a few, but they’ve all been basically the same. There are just varying levels of control and imprisonment is all. Same rules, different type of bars on the windows and doors. A jail is still a jail no matter how much paint you throw on the walls or carpet you put on the floor,” she said with a dry laugh.
Creed tried to hide his frustration. It wouldn’t do them any good for their mate to sense how he felt in that moment. All they could do was show her. Actions always spoke stronger than words in the shifter world. Their Serenity would just have to see for herself that they weren’t going to cage her in.
“Baby, we would never make you bend to our will. Your strength is part of who you are and what draws us to you,” Shayne said.
“That’s enough, brother. She isn’t going to change her mind until she sees for herself that we won’t subjugate her,” Creed told him.
Shayne’s expression looked anything but pleased by that realization, but he backed off of trying to convince her of it. Instead, he returned to seducing their mate. It was something Creed was in total agreement with.
Chapter Nine
Serenity felt anything but serene as Shayne buried his face in her neck and inhaled her scent. The feel of his rough tongue laving up her neck sent shivers down her spine. Just like that he managed to dissolve the fear and frustration of only seconds before. Mates could do that with each other. She just hadn’t expected it when they had been talking about how mating meant she would lose her freedom, something she would fight every step of the way.
“You taste like vanilla and honey,” Shayne said in a raw guttural voice. “Two things I love more than anything else.”
The truth in his words was punctuated by the hard length of him against her ass as she sat on his lap. Her cat preened in the knowledge that he was hard, hot, and horny for her. She loved being lusted over.
Slut.
Then Creed joined in on the obvious plans to seduce her into their bed. Truth be told, they didn’t have to work so hard if they didn’t want to. Serenity was a realist besides being stubborn as the day was long. She knew it would only be a matter of time before she ended up there anyway. The pull between the three of them was strong, much stronger than anything she would have believed possible. Need ate at her resolve, turning her into a solid ball of anticipation.
Creed’s mouth hovered just over hers as if waiting to see if she would move away or remain where she was. Instead, Serenity surprised them both by leaning forward to close the distance between them. Latching on to his plump, kissable lips, she kissed him with all of the building need inside of her.
“That’s so fucking hot.” Shayne’s voice next to her ear reminded her that there were two of them. She reached back and curled her fingers in his hair, tugging on it as she did.
Serenity’s cat stretched and purred, wanting to extend her claws and mark them, but she wasn’t going to allow her to do that just yet. First, they needed them to satisfy the long denied needs she’d built a wall around for the last few years. It had been a while since she’d last taken a lover to her bed. Always before they had been human, since most shifters tended to get possessive at the drop of a hat. It had been a long time since she’d had sex with another shifter. The anticipation of what was to come curled her toes and made her insides quake with the possibilities.
Creed tore his mouth from hers. He licked along the seam of her lips before nipping at her bottom lip.
“Open up for me, kitten. I want to taste you. I need to taste you,” he rasped out.
She relented and allowed him access to her whole mouth, his tongue slipping inside to torment her as he explored and claimed all of it as his own. When he’d conquered that to his satisfaction, Creed moved to kiss and lick the corners of her mouth down to her jaw where he nipped and licked over to her earlobe.
“Christ, you’re sweet. Sweet and tangy all at the same time,” he all but moaned.
Serenity responded with a moan of her own as Shayne’s hands slowly unfastened her bra, slipping it from between her and Creed’s bodies. The feel of his hot callused hands rubbing lightly over her mounds reawakened sensitive nipples. They peaked, straining to be touched as well.
“God, you’re driving me insane,” she said to no one in particular. They were both turning her into a puddle of need.
Serenity’s clit, lubricated by her arousal, throbbed. They’d hardly touched her and already she wanted, no needed to be filled. Her pussy ached for something hard, thick, and long inside of it.
“We’ll take care of you, honey. Relax and feel what we can do to you,” Creed murmured in her ear.
All she could do was groan as Shayne rubbed his palm over her hardened nipples. Creed seemed to take that as acquiescence and knelt before her, his hands immediately going to the closure of her jeans. His hot knuckles brushed against the skin of her belly as he unfastened them. Her tummy fluttered at the contact.
“Lift her up, Shayne.” As the big bear she sat on lifted her as if she weighed nothing, Creed pulled her jeans and underwear down all at the same time.
Once again, the reminder that she wore plain underwear dampened her mood. But the look of lust on Creed’s face quickly chased away her soured mood. He wanted her as if just the thought of not having her would kill him. Sure, a lot of it was the mating heat riding him, but she knew enough about the big bear already to know that nothing, not even the heat could control him. If he hadn’t already been attracted to her, it wouldn’t have him almost salivating. It settled the worry that without the heat she wouldn’t be as attractive to them somewhat.
“I’ve got to taste that sweet pussy, Serenity. I can’t hold back.” He looked up from where he’d been staring at her trimmed mound. “Put her on the bed, Shayne. Then get undressed.”
It shouldn’t have startled her to hear Creed telling Shayne what to do since Creed was the sleuth’s leader, but it did. Shayne appeared just as powerful as his brother to her, but the other male didn’t growl, flinch, or appear angered at his brother’s order. And it was an order.
She quickly found herself transported back to the bed where a grinning Shayne tossed her so that she bounc
ed twice before a now very naked Creed stilled her by covering her body with his. Her lynx charged for the surface at having the male on top of her like that, but Serenity kept her at bay, reminding her that this was their mate. The feline didn’t care. She was a very dominant female and didn’t like being attacked like that.
“Easy, kitten. I’m not going to hurt you. All I want to do is make you feel real good,” Creed crooned to her before getting to his hands and knees above her. “I’m going to lick my way down your sweet body, tasting every inch of your silky skin. Then, when I get to the source of that intoxicating scent you’re sending my way, I’m going to explore every inch of it as well. I bet you taste like spicy honey, don’t you.”
Her lynx whined at the promise in his voice. It had gone even deeper with his arousal. Oh it was very obvious just how aroused he was, too. The bear sported an enormous cock that bordered on too big, but just managed to stay on the right side of that line. His meaty cock stretched out hard and long, dipping down toward her. He had large balls that held no hair. They didn’t even look as if he shaved them. The bulbous tip shown with a drop of pre-cum, making her mouth water at the sight.
Before she could say anything, Creed licked a circle around her belly button. She’d expected him to start with her breasts, but a second later, Shayne latched onto one of them while one hand captured the other. That explained Creed’s focus lower.
Oh, God. I’m not about to complain either.
Even as Shayne sucked lightly on her nipple while plumping her other breast with his big hand, Creed had discovered that she had a sensitive spot just above the crease of her inner thigh. Every swipe of his tongue had her whimpering and struggling to move beneath the two males. Her pussy clenched, aching to be filled, sending her higher with every touch from the two bears above her.
“Oh, God,” she moaned out.
Creed’s tongue finally dipped lower to caress her wet slit. When he growled and spread her lower lips with his fingers, she almost panicked at the ravenous sounds he made as he buried his face in her wet folds. Then there was nothing but pleasure as both he and his brother drove her closer and closer to the edge of ecstasy. Each nip of their teeth and lick of their tongue had her squirming to both get closer and get away at the same time.
“Fuck, brother. She’s addictive. She tastes like spicy vanilla honey,” Creed said between devastating licks.
“Give me your finger, Serenity,” Shayne demanded.
Confused, she lifted one of her hands from where she’d been digging into the covers to hold herself still and Shayne shackled it around the wrist, lowering it between her legs.
“I want a taste, baby. Give it to me,” he told her.
She realized he wanted her to wet her fingers in her pussy juices so he could taste her. The thought turned her on even more than she already had been. Creed growled when she moved her hand down between her soaked pussy and his mouth. Instead of trying to push her out of the way though, the big bear shifter grabbed her wrist and moved her fingers up and down until they were drenched in her juices. Then he returned it to his brother who growled his approval and pulled her hand toward his mouth.
Shayne didn’t take a finger into his mouth and suck like she expected him to. Using the tip of his tongue, he licked from her palm upward until he reached the tip of her finger. Then he licked back down the other side. The teasing touch made every hair on her arms lift. Even her clit seemed affected by that slight touch. Seconds later, he plunged three of her fingers all the way into his mouth and sucked hard, long drags, growling as he did.
Creed continued to torment her below with his talented tongue, lapping at her as if he’d never had anything so delicious. His tongue seemed to reach farther inside of her than was possible and he could move his mouth to nuzzle and suckle on her tender flesh in a way that a normal male wouldn’t be able to do. God, he was going to kill her with that mouth.
“Please, Creed. I need to come. It’s too much!”
He didn’t respond, just continued eating her like a man starved. She had never begged in her life and the fact that she had without thinking should have upset her, but Serenity was beyond caring at this point. All she wanted to do was reach that pinnacle that promised to be mind-bending when she did. If Creed would just give her clit a hard swipe instead of the tiny nudges he was teasing her with.
The sudden invasion of a finger inside her cunt had her gasping, arching her back and neck in surprise. It almost gave her the push she needed to climax, but as if he knew just how much it would take, he gave her a tiny bit less to keep her on edge. Slowly, he fucked her with it, making sure to drag his digit along her sensitive tissue with each retreat. After a minute or two, he added a second finger and her body all but convulsed, leaving her gasping for breath and cursing him all at the same time.
“Fuck me, Creed! I can’t stand it anymore!” she cried out.
Creed didn’t say anything, but his clever lips latched on to her clit and sucked even as his fingers began to piston in and out of her pussy. Shayne pinched one nipple while rasping his sharp teeth over the other one adding fuel to the fire that had built into a roaring flame. It consumed her in a maelstrom of explosions that rocked her body to the core.
The two brothers stroked her down from the lofty high but despite closing her eyes to drift into sleep, she couldn’t forget that they hadn’t come yet, nor had they claimed her. Her eyes snapped open just in time to see Shayne stand up and step closer to the edge of the bed. Though not quite as long as his brother’s, Shayne’s rigid dick was thicker with a generous pair of balls that hung heavy between his legs. The sight of him standing completely naked in front of her had her mouthwatering.
“Don’t worry, honey. You’ll get to taste him. Now roll over on your hands and knees. I want to fuck you and my bear is going to tear us all apart if I don’t mate you right now,” Creed said in a husky voice with more violence than pleasure sounding in it.
Serenity wasn’t afraid of him, only cautious. Males in the midst of a mating frenzy had been known to accidently harm their mate when the females unknowingly challenged them. She had no intentions of doing that. She wanted Creed just as much as she wanted Shayne. On hands and knees, she found her face at the perfect level to take Shayne’s ruddy-colored cock inside her mouth and suck on it.
Shayne must have noticed how she stared at it with hunger because he fisted the base of it with one hand and shifted closer until the meaty length of him was within licking distance.
“I can’t wait to see your lips wrapped around my dick, baby.”
Without saying anything, Serenity swiped her tongue across the wet tip, scooping up the tiny drop of pre-cum that had appeared while she watched. His sharp hiss let her know that he hadn’t expected that. His flavor exploded across her tongue, a heady mixture of bitter honey that wasn’t unpleasant. She licked all around the crown before rasping over the slit once more and hummed her approval as more of his cum leaked for her.
“Aw, hell, baby. That feels good,” Shayne crooned to her.
Raspy hairs brushed against the backs of Serenity’s thighs letting her know that Creed had only waited long enough for her to get settled. His body heat soon enveloped her back as he bent over her, brushing her hair aside.
“Hold on, honey. I need you. I can’t wait any longer,” he whispered in her ear. Then his hands grasped her hips in a tight grip and the blunt head of his cock slid through her juices at her slit.
She moaned just as she took Shayne’s cockhead into her mouth. It reverberated across the flesh she held there causing the other man to groan as she slowly swirled her tongue around the shaft. Creed’s dick probed her opening then slowly pressed forward, filling her, stretching her sheath impossibly wide as he slowly, steadily filled her. She’d never felt so stuffed with cock before.
“Holy hell, you’re tight,” he groaned.
All Serenity could do was moan around the equally thick cock filling her mouth. She’d managed not to bite Shayne as h
is brother challenged her pussy to accept all of him. Instead, she’d stilled and concentrated on breathing through her nose and controlling the urge to scream. While she was certain it would have felt good to Shayne’s throbbing penis, she wasn’t certain that she wouldn’t have choked trying.
When Creed’s thighs touched the back of hers once again, signaling that he had managed to stuff all of that giant cock inside of her, he leaned his forehead against the middle of her back and grunted as if trying to calm down. She couldn’t stop the slight smile that somehow managed to grow around Shayne’s dick. As Shayne threaded his hands through her hair and fisted it, Serenity slowly backed off of his shaft, shiny with her saliva. He didn’t try to stop her with his hands tangled in her hair, but he did groan. Serenity relished the sound of him losing some of his control.
She took more of him into her mouth and when the crown hit the back of her throat making her gag, she forced herself to relax and swallowed around it.
“Jesus! Do that again, babe. Just like that.” He hissed with pleasure when she did. “Damn!”
Creed pulled slowly out of her burning cunt, dragging his dick through her tingling tissues. Then he pushed back inside of her as if unwilling to leave her hot, wet depths. She could totally agree with that. He felt so good inside of her. He stretched her just right. She loved the slight burning that all too soon changed into pure pleasure.
She moaned deep in her throat, then began growling when he increased his tempo, drawing more and more pleasure from her already quivering cunt. She’d never enjoyed sex so much before. Even though her cat was a very sexual animal, she’d lost interest in it once she’d secured her home and settled in. Maybe it wasn’t that they were just good at this but that the mating heat had her in a frenzy. She’d never enjoyed sucking a male’s cock before either, but she couldn’t get enough of Shayne’s taste or the feel of him in her mouth.
