Robert's Rescue [Lords of Hawksfell Manor 9] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour)

by Josie Dennis

  “I doubt much frightens her. She’s married to a Hawk, after all.”

  “You truly believe you’re all cursed, don’t you?”

  Robert shrugged. “Cursed? I’m not sure of that. We do have a propensity for needs we can’t control and hearts that can’t be touched.”

  Jared rolled his eyes. “How maudlin. Didn’t you see how happy Matthew Hawk is with his wife? Or the earl? They seem more than content.”

  Robert thought of the love he’d glimpsed at the table just that evening. “Yes.”

  “And aren’t our sitting here at our leisure proof that you can control your needs?”

  Robert ran his gaze over Jared’s fetching face and figure. “I enjoy sitting and talking with you as well as fucking you, Jared.”

  Jared’s eyes sparked but he dipped his head and turned slightly away from him. “Good to know. But what of Rose?”

  “What of her?”

  “Do you enjoy sitting and talking with her?”

  “I haven’t sat with the girl but yes, I do like talking with her. That brogue drives me mad, as yours does.”

  “Mad? With those needs of yours?”

  Robert inclined his head. “I concede you the point. I think of her as a friend as well.”

  Jared looked very satisfied as he sat back and faced him. “Then why are you so dour this evening? You can’t be driven by your needs. Those were well taken care of this afternoon.”

  Robert couldn’t put it into words. He wanted to spend time with both Jared and Rose but he was damned if he knew how to work things out. He would return to his life before Hawksfell and they would return to their duties. Perhaps the two of them would find happiness after all was said and done.

  “Do you have a deck of cards?” he asked.

  Jared’s brows arched, and then he smiled. “Cards, friend?”

  Feeling more settled, Robert nodded.

  Chapter 8

  Rose had to pass his room this afternoon. Robert knew that. He was counting on it, truth be told. After his evening spent with Jared, he needed to see her. Their conversation left him feeling out of sorts. Why ever had he voiced having them return to Waltham Hall with him? Jared took his words at face value, and why the hell shouldn’t he? He wasn’t going to marry any time soon and he didn’t wish to take Gabriel’s servants away from the manor. That would be a horrid way to repay his generosity.

  He strained his ears, listening for her light footfalls outside his door. As if on cue, she passed by as he pulled open his door.

  “Rose,” he said, his voice holding a touch of softness he wouldn’t try to decipher.

  She stilled, tilting her head to one side as her eyes filled with warmth. “Lord Waltham.”

  He smiled then reached out to draw her into his room. “Are you all right, Rose? I had to know but I didn’t want to risk coming up to your room last evening.”

  “My room in the attics? Are you daft?”

  He loved her outspokenness. “Yes, I quickly dismissed the possibility. Although, Jared has been there. Hasn’t he?”

  Her cheeks flushed that pretty pink he loved. “He has.”

  He waved a hand. “In any event, I’m certain your bed would be far too small for what we have in mind.”

  Her mind worked and he longed to ask her just what was going on beneath that pert little white cap perched on her head.

  “And just what do you two scoundrels have in mind?”

  He found himself grinning as broadly as Jared ever did. “Come to Jared’s rooms and find out.”

  “Now?”

  Robert shrugged. “No time like the present. We have time before the dinner gong.”

  She nibbled that full lower lip of hers and he couldn’t resist kissing her. When she stared up at him, he smiled. “You know, I never enjoyed kissing much. Before you and Jared, that is. Never sought it out, either.”

  Her tongue flicked out to stroke her bottom lip now. “That’s a pity, because you’re a right good kisser.”

  Something shifted in his chest and he waited for the beast to rise. It was surprisingly quiet this afternoon. Lust was there, though. Desire for this girl and for Jared.

  “The carriage house, Rose. Can you join us there?”

  At her enthusiastic nod, he felt a bubble of excitement bloom in his chest now. They would both take her. She didn’t know that but he and Jared had discussed it. Would she be open to taking both of their cocks into her delectable little body? There was only one way to find out.

  “We’ll both have you, Rose.”

  “You both have already had me.”

  He just smiled again and let her fertile mind work out the possibilities.

  “Go,” he told her. “I’ll be along shortly.”

  Rose opened his door and peeked out into the hall. The way must have been clear, for she disappeared. Robert counted to ten to calm his pounding heart. Crossing to the drawer beside the bed, he withdrew the cream that had eased his way with Jared that first night. Now they’d both have Rose and she would need some preparation if they were both going to fuck her.

  And they were. He had no doubt in his mind.

  He managed to keep from running as he made his way across the grounds toward the carriage house, and climbed the stairs to knock sharply on Jared’s door.

  “Robert,” Jared said as he opened the door.

  One look over his shoulder told him the chauffeur had made good use of the scant time Rose had been here. She was stripped down to her chemise and stockings already, and seated on the bed.

  “Robert,” she said.

  “Did you start without me?”

  Jared shut the door and shrugged out of his shirt. “As tempting a package as our girl is, I wanted to wait for your arrival.”

  Lust licked at Robert. “Thank you.” He removed his clothes as Jared did likewise. “Did you tell her the particulars?”

  Jared cocked his head to the side. “I thought you told her. She said as much.”

  “No particulars, Jared,” Rose pouted. “And I have no clue as to how you’re both going to take me.”

  Robert grasped himself, giving his shaft a long stroke. “I’m going to take your pussy, sweet Rose. And Jared is going to fuck that pretty little bottom of yours.”

  Her mouth dropped open but her eyes were filled with speculation. “Never say that’s possible!”

  Jared came close to her, taking her hands in his. “And just how to you imagine Robert loved me?”

  “I hadn’t imagined.” She shrugged. “I couldn’t, really.”

  Robert came up behind Jared and hugged his chest. “Like this, Rose.” He kissed Jared’s cheek and the man arched his back.

  “That’s lovely,” Rose said. “You took Jared’s bottom?”

  “I did.” He nibbled the cord at the side of Jared’s neck. “I think I’m a bit too large for yours, however. This first time, that is.”

  “I think you’re right,” Jared said. “Her pussy is so tight, I can only imagine how tight her pert little ass is.”

  “You’ll fuck her, so soon you’ll know.”

  “Oh, your words!” Rose said.

  “Do we shock you?” Robert asked.

  She came up on her knees. “No. You make me want all the things you’re describing.”

  He and Jared exchanged a look and Robert felt the right of it. He stretched his legs out on the bed, leaning his back against the headboard. “Come to me, Rose.”

  She did, shimmying out of her chemise as she did so. Her body was a sight, rosy and ripe and ready. He grabbed her to him and fastened his mouth to one nipple.

  She arched, straddling his left leg. “Robert!”

  Jared was at her back, his hands running over her. Robert could feel just how silky soft she was and knew she was wet. She all but soaked his thigh as she writhed against him.

  “We have to get your ready, love,” he said, holding her close. “We have to make you want us as much as we want you.”

  “Oh, I don’t belie
ve that’s in question!”

  Jared laughed, and then he brushed the thick curtain of her hair aside and kissed her neck as he’d kissed his. “I think she’ll be ready quite soon, Robert.”

  Robert certainly was. With every move she came tantalizingly close to his cock. He could smell her hot sweet scent, and knew if he touched her she’d be soaking wet.

  “Will you, Rose? Will you be ready for us?”

  * * * *

  Rose wasn’t certain but she knew she wanted to feel both of them loving her. Taking her. Fucking her. Oh, the word was a bit naughty and caused her pulse to race.

  “I think so,” she said.

  “Ah, I need more assurance than that.”

  She bit her lip in obvious frustration, and Robert dipped a hand between her legs. She drenched his fingers as she gripped his shoulders tightly.

  “Oh, that feels lovely.” She sighed

  His mouth fastened to her breast again, nibbling and sucking as he drove two fingers high inside of her. Jared continued to kiss her supple neck, stroking her body as Robert ratcheted up her desires.

  “Do you want to come, sweet Rose?” Robert licked her nipples then brought his mouth to hers. “Do you want to come for us?”

  She swallowed and gave a frantic nod, unable to catch her breath. His fingers were magic on her. His thumb circled her clit and she let out a moan.

  “Pretty Rose.” Jared reached around to hold her lips wide open as Robert increased her pleasure. “I can almost taste you.”

  Robert lifted his hand to Jared’s mouth then. As Rose watched, Jared licked Robert’s fingers and she nearly swooned at the image. Her body was hot and ticklish and so ready for the two of them she thought she’d scream if they didn’t make her come.

  “Please, Robert.”

  His fingers returned to her pussy, teasing and tickling her even more. “We’ll please you all right, love.”

  Thank the Lord the two of them held her so tightly between them. Her legs were jelly, and her heart was racing so fast she was almost light-headed.

  “Did you bring the cream?” Jared asked.

  “Cream?” she managed to ask.

  “To ease the way, sweet. Yes, Jared. In my trouser pocket.”

  Jared kissed her again then leaned forward to take Robert’s mouth. Rose watched this closely as well. “I love watching you two kiss.”

  Robert chuckled as Jared climbed off the bed to retrieve the cream he spoke of. “Now you know how I feel when I see you with Jared.”

  “It’s astounding, really,” she breathed, leaning heavily against Robert’s broad chest.

  Robert’s hands held her closely as he continued to tease and fondle her breasts. Her pussy was weeping now, eager for something just out of reach. He’d brought her so close to the brink she could scream from frustration. Grasping his hot, hard shaft, she made the move to take him inside.

  “Not yet.” He winced slightly as he took her hand off of him. “Jared will take you first.”

  That man was back behind her once more, cupping her breasts as Robert’s tongue flicked over her nipples. Beads of sweat broke out all over her body as she shivered with delight. Robert’s thigh was rock hard beneath her, the hairs there tickling and tantalizing her flesh as she rocked against him.

  “Take me, Jared,” she breathed.

  He touched her bottom now, rubbing and kneading as his fingers neared her secret hole. “In here, Rose. That’s where I’ll be taking you.”

  She wanted to ask him how in the world he would fit, but then she thought of Robert and his remarkably large cock fitting her body that first time. “All right.”

  He laughed softly in her ear, and then she felt the tip of one cream-covered finger enter her. She tightened then eased as he whispered nothings in her ear. The lilt of his brogue was strong now, as she’d since come to expect in his passions. Robert continued to kiss and tease her breasts as Jared inserted a second finger into her backside.

  “Are you all right?” he asked, his breath hot on her neck.

  “Yes.”

  “Good.” His hands kept rubbing as his fingers moved in and out of her. “Ah, you have a right pretty ass.”

  She had no answer to that. She soon felt the broad head of his cock between her cheeks and couldn’t help but brace herself.

  “Easy, love,” Robert said, cupping her face. “Relax. We would never hurt you.”

  His eyes were intent on her and she couldn’t look away. “I know.” The words left her mouth before she could think about it. What would they think of her, giving her trust as easily as her body? By the heat in those dark Hawk eyes she could almost believe that he liked her words as much as he seemed to enjoy her passions.

  Jared’s cock eased into her by inches, past the tight muscles she hadn’t though she had until she was filled to bursting. It made her ache, but not in pain. No, her pussy began to ache for its own pleasures.

  “Oh, that feels… I don’t quite know!”

  Jared’s hands were on her hips now, holding her still as he began to move a bit. “I’m in,” he rasped. “Christ, this is incredible.”

  Her pussy was dripping now, her body on fire as Jared fucked her bottom. Robert kissed and petted her, and his fingers continued to drive her mad.

  “I need you inside me, too, Robert. Is that what you meant? Both of you inside of me?”

  “Yes,” Robert said, shifting as Jared held her still. “Just let me get closer.”

  She grabbed onto his shoulders again as he teased her entrance. Jared slid back just as Robert drove up fully into her.

  She had never imagined it could be like this. Her two men moved in rhythm, one out and one in, as they worked her into a frenzied state of passion. She was sobbing now and she didn’t give a care. She just held on to Robert’s shoulders as the three of them moved together.

  The climax Robert had kept just out of her reach moments ago threatened. She felt as though pleasure would split her in two. She wanted that, though. To come with the both of them buried in her body.

  “Yes!” she cried. “Oh, this is amazing!”

  “I can feel you, Robert,” Jared said in her ear. His voice was rough and it sent tingles over her skin.

  “I feel you, too,” Robert answered. “God, this is incredible.”

  Their bodies were slick with sweat and their movements became far less measured. She felt her climax begin and started to shiver.

  “I’m coming!” she cried out as she began to tremble. “Oh, hold me!”

  Over and over the waves of pleasure crashed over her. She sobbed as she came, lights flashing behind her closed lids. As if from a distance, she heard Jared shout as he joined her in release. Before another moment passed, Robert was bucking beneath her as he exploded high inside of her. Heat engulfed her as she came again, pushed over the edge once more as his big body shook with the power of his release.

  It was some time before her mind settled back into her sated body. They’d wrung her out like freshly washed linens. Robert was still inside her, cradling her close against his chest as Jared withdrew to stretch out beside them. Her legs were spread wide now, draped over Robert’s thighs.

  “I’m so sorry,” Robert said at last.

  “Sorry?” She couldn’t open her eyes, but she did manage to give her head a shake. “It was wonderful. Both of you were wonderful.”

  “And you’re a treasure I never thought I’d find,” Jared said.

  His sweet words in that sexy brogue of his made her want to cry, which was beyond silly. Then the reality of their positions struck her. What precisely Robert had meant by his apology. He had spilled his seed inside of her.

  Rising up, she braced her hands on Robert’s chest and stared down at him. “You didn’t withdraw.”

  His dark eyes looked very sad now. “I know. I’m sorry, Rose. I couldn’t seem to move and when Jared started to come I lost control.”

  Scrambling off of him, she grabbed her chemise up off the floor. “You came ins
ide of me, Robert. You said you’d keep me safe. You promised!”

  Robert ran a hand through his hair as he struggled to a seated position. “I know,” he said again. “It will be all right.”

  She gaped at him. “Will it?”

  “Now, Rose. Just think a moment,” Jared said. “Surely you won’t be caught after just one time.”

  She donned her chemise and glared at him. “How do you know that? You don’t, that’s how. And where does that leave me? Robert will leave Hawksfell and you’ll tire of me. My belly will be swollen with a bastard and I’ll be dismissed!”

  “Now, wait,” Robert said. “No one will be dismissed.”

  “You promised me. I have nothing if I’m with child. Don’t you understand that?”

  She grabbed up her clothes and dressed with her usual speed if not her usual care. “I cannot believe I let Jared’s sweet words and your dark eyes convince me to forget how far I’d come.” Sobs choked her throat but she managed to keep them down. “I’m going back up to the house and I don’t want to see either one of you again.”

  “Wait.” Robert’s commanding tone stopped her in her tracks.

  “What is it?” she asked.

  “If you have my child, I’ll know about it.”

  She just stared at him. “No, you won’t. I won’t be known as some silly maid who let a Hawk have his bloody way with her. No, my lord.”

  “Now Rose, wait a minute,” Jared said. “You can’t leave like this.”

  A tear spilled over her lashes. “I can. I have to. Don’t you see? If I swell with child, everything is lost!”

  She couldn’t look at their dear faces a moment longer. She had to get out of there as quickly as possible and pray as many rosaries as it took to make certain that she didn’t bring another Hawk bastard into the world.

  Chapter 9

  Jared ran the polishing rag over the earl’s favorite motor car, grateful to have something to occupy his time. After what had happened last week, he could use the mindless work to keep his mind off Rose and the look of horror and betrayal on her face.

  He heard footsteps and knew just to whom they belonged. He straightened, ready for the conversation he knew they’d both been dodging since that afternoon.
