“Why not?” Ben took her hand again.
“It’s okay,” Alex said. “I understand if you don’t trust me yet.”
“Hey.” Chris leaned down and kissed her. “It isn’t about trust. I want you to pledge fealty in front of a bunch of other pack mates, the same way Ben did. So they see firsthand that my mates are with me. Maybe tonight, at the bar.”
“Oh.” Alex nodded. “Okay, yeah.”
“Pack politics,” Ben said. “I hope you enjoy them because as the Alpha’s mates, we’re in for it.”
“You sound like you’ve experienced this before?” Alex said.
“My parents.” Ben tugged her toward the door. “One of my dads was the pack Alpha.”
“But you decided to leave?” Alex said.
Ben shouldn’t have brought it up. Not only did he not really want to talk about it, but it would be a total downer. And that was the last thing he wanted right now. “It’s a long story. I’ll tell you sometime.” He opened the door and held it for Alex.
She looked surprised then scooted through with a smile on her face. So easy to please. He’d have to remember that.
Chris got into his car while Ben climbed into Alex’s with her. They hadn’t even talked about it. It was just understood—everything was going well, but she was still a flight risk. Less so if Ben stayed with her.
“What about your parents?” Ben said. “How come you’re not in their pack anymore?”
Alex stiffened. “Like you said. Long story.”
Ben hated to think about her hurting. And she must be hurting if she didn’t want to talk about it. He put his hand on her thigh. “We’ll talk about it some other time.”
“Thanks.”
During the rest of the short ride, he blabbered on about his job hunt. Anything to keep his mind off his raging hard-on or the all too tempting female beside him. In no more than five minutes, he unlocked the door to his room and they piled inside.
For the first time, he’d be with both his mates. And they’d mark each other, completing the bonding. Not for the first time, he felt glad he and Chris hadn’t marked each other the night before. Now they could all mark each other together.
Ben grabbed Alex, pulling her into his arms and kissing her. The kiss started soft but quickly turned hard, hot and deep. He pulled her pelvis tight against him, grinding his hard length into her stomach. God, it felt good.
Just when Ben thought he’d burn up from the sensations, Chris pulled her away and kissed her himself. Ben couldn’t watch and not touch so he slid his hands around her waist from behind, one hand tucking over her stomach, between them, the other sliding all the way to Chris’ back.
Chris lifted his head. “Do you feel it? When all three of us are touching like this, do you feel that?”
Ben felt it. Not something physical, exactly. More like a completeness. It felt more right than anything ever had before.
Ben and Alex said, “Yeah,” at the same time.
Ben licked Alex’s shoulder. “Let’s mark each other.”
“Soon,” Chris said. “I’ve heard it’s best if you do it right before you orgasm.”
“Oh, yeah?” Ben had been away from a pack for so long. In the army, he’d known some other wolves but none of them were mated. So he didn’t know this stuff. “Does it make the orgasm better?”
“Loads better,” Chris said. “So I’ve heard.”
The soft skin of Alex’s neck still looked inviting. “I guess I can wait.”
“It’ll be sooner than you think,” Chris said.
“Oh, yeah? No foreplay?” Alex said.
Chris scowled down at her, a smile pulling the edges of his mouth. “You’re lucky I can’t reach your ass with Ben standing behind you. ‘Cause you deserve a spank for that comment.”
“Hunh,” Alex said. “If there’s no foreplay, it’ll be me spanking you, not the other way around.”
Ben rubbed his hands up and down Alex’s sides.
Chris laughed. “Don’t worry, sweetie. We’ll make you come and come and…”
“Come and come,” Ben said. He squeezed her hips each time he said ‘come.’
“Okay. Well, as long as we all understand each other.” Alex looped her arms around Chris’ neck and pulled him down for another kiss.
Ben pulled her toward him just enough to slip his hands between them and rub her breasts. Wow, his mate’s breasts. Soft and firm and just the right size, spilling over his hands in soft pillows. He pinched her nipples and pulled on them, prompting a growl that sounded almost like a purr from Alex.
One hand still playing, Ben moved the other to her jeans, popped open the button and unzipped them. Then he used both hands to push her jeans down, grabbing her undies at the same time. He went to his knees, pushing her clothes all the way to the floor. What legs.
What an ass.
Ben leaned forward and pressed kisses onto the rounded globes in front of him, his hands roaming over her hips. He couldn’t forget those legs. He ran his hands down her thighs, kissing every few inches, one leg and then the other, until he hit the back of her knees. He loved knees. He had no idea why, but they were the sexiest damn things. And hers were perfect. His hands rubbed up and down the front of her legs while he kissed and licked and nibbled at the backs of her knees.
Alex moaned. “Oh, God, he’s killing me.”
“What’s he doing?” Chris said.
“Setting me on fire.”
Chris laughed. “And you thought you weren’t going to get any foreplay.”
Chapter 9
Ben was dimly aware of someone removing Alex’s shirt. Her bra fell to the floor next to his knee. Above him, Chris’ hands stroked her back and ass. Ben straightened and grabbed both sides of her butt, pulling them gently apart.
“What are you doing?” Alex’s voice sounded thick.
“Wait and see.” Ben leaned forward to lick and suck her puckered hole.
Her body stiffened as she groaned loudly. “Oh, my God. No one’s ever—I mean, that’s—don’t stop.”
He had no intentions of stopping. This would be orgasm number one. Only question was whether she’d need her clit rubbed or if she could come just by him rimming her.
Her breathing got louder, each breath shorter.
“What’re you doing to her?” Chris peered over Alex’s shoulder at Ben. “Oh, I see.” He pulled back. “You going to come soon, honey?”
“Yes,” she said, the word barely a breath.
Ben tightened his grip on her hips.
***
Within seconds, an orgasm crashed over her, violently taking her under a riptide of pleasure. Her body shook, her knees wobbled, her vision blurred. After several long, long seconds, she regained full consciousness.
Alex held onto Chris’ shoulders. She’d fall down otherwise. No one had ever licked her there before, and she’d never imagined it could make her come. “That was great.”
“That’s just the beginning.” Chris swung her up and laid her on the bed.
“You’re both still dressed.” How did that happen? Had she been so out of it she hadn’t even realized that they’d stripped her and not themselves?
“Not for long.” Ben got up from his knees.
Alex propped up on one elbow, her legs tucked together and bent at the knee. “Why don’t you strip each other?”
The two men exchanged a look.
“That’ll take a long time,” Chris said.
“It’s part of the foreplay,” Alex said.
Ben took Chris by the neck and pulled him in for a kiss. God, it was the sexiest thing Alex had ever seen. There was something about two hot men together.
Chris’ hands roamed over Ben’s body, then gripped the bottom of his shirt and pulled it over his head. Their kiss only broke for a few seconds and then they were at it again, except this time Ben’s magnificent body was on display. Shafts of light shone through the closed drapes and highlighted his large biceps, his muscled shoulders, his strong
back.
With a whoosh, Ben yanked Chris’ shirt over his head and dropped it to the floor. Alex’s eyes nearly crossed. Ben looked ripped until you put him next to Chris. Chris had muscles like nobody’s business. Like Schwarzeneggar or something.
“Enough,” Chris said. He fumbled with the button on Ben’s jeans.
Ben pushed his hands away. “Enough is right.” He unbuttoned it himself and pushed his jeans to the floor. Then he kicked off his shoes and pulled off his socks while Chris hurriedly disrobed.
“I was enjoying the strip tease,” Alex said.
Ben lay down beside her. “There’s time for more of that later.” He turned her toward him, capturing her mouth with a kiss.
Ah, her beautiful men. Each so different and yet so perfect. Alex wrapped her arms around Ben’s neck as he pulled her into him, their bodies fitting together like puzzle pieces.
Chris lay down behind her, sandwiching her between them. Hands rubbed her everywhere, her hips, back, butt, breasts. She couldn’t remember the last time she’d felt so turned on and so satiated at the same time.
Ben pushed her back toward Chris. “Spread your legs.” He crawled downward.
“Ben?”
Chris rolled onto his back pulling Alex on top of him. The two men spread her legs wide. While Ben positioned himself between her thighs, Chris rubbed her tits and pulled on her nipples. His cock rubbed her ass. “You think I could slide right into you like this?” he murmured in her ear.
“You’d need to be lower.” She felt her face getting hot. Somehow talking about it was way more embarrassing than doing it.
“Not for your ass.” Chris slid his arm down to wrap across her abdomen, pulling her harder against his cock.
He couldn’t be serious. “I don’t think—”
”No, you’re right. This isn’t the right position.”
Ben kissed the inside of her thigh, then the other thigh. Then he latched his mouth around her clit.
Alex would have bucked her hips if Chris weren’t holding her in place like a vice. It felt like her entire pussy had melted into molten lava, liquid and explosive.
“Is it good?” Chris plucked at one of her nipples.
In between her moans she managed to say, “Yes.” She held onto the arm Chris had across her hips, her fingers digging into him.
Ben slid a finger into her pussy, then a second one, sliding them in and out as he sucked on her clit.
Alex tried to grab onto his hair but it was too short so she simply left her hand on his head. “More.”
Chris ran his teeth along her throat then nipped at her ear. “Come. Come now.”
As though his words had taken control of her, her body flashed into an orgasm even stronger and deeper than the last. She strained against Chris’ holding arm, wanting to arch, wanting to thrash, unable to do either.
Suddenly Ben loomed over her, on his hands and knees above them. “I want you.”
His cock brushed against the inside of her thigh. She spread her legs a little wider. “Yes.”
“Chris?”
“Go ahead.” Chris brushed the hair away from Alex’s face. “I’m right here.”
Ben surged into her, his cock sliding easily to the hilt. Grabbing his back, Alex held him as tight as she could.
“Oh, God,” Ben said. He pulled out and slammed back into her. “Amazing.” He pounded into her hard, setting up an orgasm-inducing rhythm, pushing her closer to the edge with every thrust.
She felt her fangs lengthening and felt an overwhelming desire to bite him. Brushing her teeth over his shoulder, she held onto him even tighter. Chris had said to wait until right before their orgasms. She didn’t know how much longer she could wait. “Coming soon?”
“Soon.” His voice sounded thick and grumbly. His teeth had lengthened just like hers had.
Her pussy clenched around his cock, a preview of the orgasm to come. Another thrust. It felt like it rubbed down her clit and all the way to her g-spot. She couldn’t last another second.
She bit him.
The orgasm swept through her, shaking her, but she kept her teeth embedded in Ben’s shoulder, feeling triumphant. He was hers.
Then he bit her.
The orgasm that had almost finished crashed over her again, harder, faster, as though she hadn’t already come and come. It lasted and lasted and when she thought she couldn’t come any more, he bit harder and it started all over again.
What seemed like hours later but was only minutes, she collapsed back onto Chris, her head lolling onto his shoulder.
“You’re not done,” Chris said. “Neither of you.”
“My body might disagree,” Alex said.
Ben climbed off of her to fall onto the bed beside them. In a quick move, Chris turned them over and lay on top of her, face to face.
“I’ll just have to wake your body up, then,” Chris said.
“Oh, it’s awake,” she said.
He pulled her legs out from under him and she tiredly wrapped them around his waist.
“Is it?” The head of his cock brushed against her wet pussy lips.
“Yes.” Using her calves, she pulled him forward, his cock pushing into her pussy.
Chris didn’t need any encouragement to slide the rest of the way in. He buried his face in her neck. “So good.”
Alex pulled him as close as she could, suddenly feeling rejuvenated. Nature must have accounted for needing to bond with both mates at once by giving them this second wind. With a tug, Alex pulled Chris’ face up so she could kiss him.
His strokes were slower and more controlled than Ben’s. She’d think he didn’t care, that he wasn’t affected by urges the way she and Ben were, except for the strain on his face.
“Let go,” she murmured against his lips.
Chris paused, touching his forehead to hers. “I’ll hurt you if I let go.”
“No you won’t.” She hugged him tighter.
“Yes. You’re so little compared to me and I might break you.”
Alex laughed. “I don’t know who gave you that idea, but you’re wrong about me. You won’t break me.” She turned her head to the side to look at Ben. “Did you let me have it?”
Ben rolled up onto his side next to them. “You know I did.”
She put her hand on Chris’ cheek. “He didn’t break me. You won’t, either.”
“I’m stronger than he is.”
“Honey, if something hurts or if you’re going at it too hard, I’ll tell you. But please—I’m not a china doll. Don’t treat me like one.”
Chris gazed into her eyes for several seconds then leaned down to press his lips against hers. “Just remember you asked for it.” The corner of his lip twitched.
He kissed her again, this time deeper, their tongues entangling. He pumped in and out of her, slowly at first and then faster and faster. Alex held onto him as tightly as she could and met him thrust for thrust.
The rhythmic slap against her clit brought her back to full arousal. A few minutes ago, she’d been sure she was tapped out, but not anymore. And Chris still needed to mark her. No doubt she’d come again. And if this orgasm was like the one with Ben, she wouldn’t walk for hours. Her legs would be jelly.
Chris’ hands gripped her hips. She hadn’t thought it possible, but she felt him reaching even deeper inside of her. When he kissed her again, she saw that his eyes had turned yellow.
He moved faster, and she could no longer keep up. They had a few awkward out-of-time thrusts, and then she stopped trying to meet him, letting him lead. Instead, she let her hands roam over his body from his tight ass to the back of his neck.
She wasn’t sure what he’d been afraid of. Sure, he was slamming into her, but it didn’t feel bad. It felt great. Her body approached orgasm and she tried to hold it off, waiting for the moment when he’d claim her.
“Now,” Chris said so softly she almost didn’t hear him. His teeth plunged into her shoulder next to Ben’s mark.
Alex
’s body arched as the orgasm crashed over her. Sounds became muffled, her vision black as wave upon wave of ecstasy swept through her body. But she didn’t lose herself entirely. She knew there was something she needed to do. Grabbing Chris’ back, she pulled herself up so she could sink her fangs into the crook of his neck.
Her orgasm became more intense but she held on as Chris’ cock jerked inside her. He groaned around her shoulder, his teeth still in her.
They stayed like that until all of the shudders had passed. She felt reluctant to withdraw but finally released him. Once she had, he did the same. Chris stayed on top of her, much of his weight on his elbows, his face pressed into her neck.
***
Ben rubbed Chris’ back. “Amazing, huh?”
Chris turned his head a little to look at his mate. “Incredible. I just want to know how we’re going to get it up again in order to mark each other.”
Ben chuckled. “Not a problem for me. Do you know how hot it was to watch you two?” Hell, he was hard already.
“I know exactly how hot it was to watch you.” Chris grinned, his eyes sliding shut.
“Hey, don’t fall asleep.”
“Just a little nap.”
“Not even a little one.” Ben tugged at Chris and got him in a good position for a kiss. His mate had better wake up.
Chris slid his hand up to the back of Ben’s head to hold him in place.
God, that man could kiss.
When they parted, Chris said, “I’m still inside Alex.”
“That just makes it better,” Ben said.
Alex wriggled. “Yes, but it’s my turn to watch and I can’t see much from here.”
“We don’t always have to watch, you know. There are ways we could all three participate.” Chris gazed into Ben’s eyes as he said it.
“Are you thinking what I’m thinking?” Ben said.
“I am most definitely thinking what you’re thinking.”
Alex stilled. “Oh? Should I be worried?”
Chris planted a kiss on her lips. “Absolutely not. We’ll make sure you feel amazing.”
“And come many times,” Ben said.
“And yet you’re not telling me what it is. As though you’re afraid.”
Chris pushed up, straightening his arms. “Afraid? We’re not afraid.”
