Darkness Becomes Her

by Lacey Savage

  “Right now, you don’t need to.” Luke swirled his tongue around her earlobe, then nibbled on the tender flesh. “Just feel.”

  “But why --”

  “Because we want to,” Varin growled. “That will have to be enough.”

  She opened her mouth, looking like she was about to protest. Then her head rolled back against the floor and her spine arched, her body shuddering delicately as a tremor ran through her.

  “I can’t do this.” Her head thrashed from side to side, her bare nipple scraping Luke’s chest as she struggled.

  Varin growled low in his throat. They both held her pressed down, trapped beneath their bodies.

  Heidi fought them only with her hands, not resorting to the magic that danced faintly across her fingertips.

  At last, Varin pushed himself off her. His handsome face remained expressionless, but Luke could clearly make out the turmoil rolling in the depths of his black gaze.

  Varin didn’t want to let Heidi go. Hell, Luke couldn’t blame him. For his part, Luke refused to move, relishing the feel of Heidi’s soft curves against his chest, the warmth of her thigh pressed to his aching groin.

  She squirmed and pushed him aside. Groaning, Luke rolled onto his back.

  “You heard Baal.” Heidi sat up and shook out her mane of red curls. She tossed a haughty, arrogant glare at each man, but her lashes fluttered and her tone hadn’t been nearly as confident as she’d clearly hoped. “You’re here to please me. You have to do as I say.”

  Luke sat up and propped himself on his outstretched arms. He quirked an eyebrow, but didn’t fail to notice the way Varin’s lip curled.

  “What would you have us do, Mistress?” Luke asked, imbuing the question with as much genuine reverence as he could muster. It wasn’t a difficult task, considering he’d have done anything to have her luscious body crammed up closely against his again.

  A slow smile spread across Heidi’s face. Some of her composure had returned but she looked gorgeously disheveled with her curls tousled around her face, her eyes wide and glistening, a streak of black makeup running down one cheek. Her leather bustier was askew, covering only one breast. The other perfect globe was bare, the nipple stiff and elongated. A gold chain shimmied from the hard bud to disappear beneath the fabric obscuring her right breast.

  “Stand,” she commanded, tucking her legs beneath her and lifting herself to a kneeling position. “Right here, before me.”

  Luke shot a furtive glance in Varin’s direction. The feral glint in the man’s eyes had dimmed somewhat, and after only a moment’s hesitation, he moved to the spot Heidi indicated. Luke wasted no time getting to his feet to stand beside him, close enough that their outer thighs touched.

  A quick downward peek had a groan catching in Luke’s throat. Varin had gripped his firm cock in his right hand, stroking the solid erection from root to tip. His long, masculine fingers were wrapped around the delicate skin sheathing his rock-hard cock.

  Without considering his actions, Luke grabbed his own shaft, mirroring Varin’s pose. A tingle of awareness shot up Luke’s cock to angle straight into his groin, causing his balls to draw up tightly in their sac.

  “You’re magnificent.” Heidi drew up closer, kneeling between them. She raised her hands and skimmed her fingertips down the side of their hips, drawing twin moans from Luke and Varin. “It’ll be such a shame to waste these perfect bodies.”

  Varin’s cock pulsed in his hand. He thrust his groin forward a fraction of an inch, bringing the swollen head of his rod into contact with Heidi’s lips. “No one wastes anything around here. Every cry is treasured. Every scream is admired. Even death has a purpose.” He swallowed visibly before continuing. “Yours brought you back to us.”

  Heidi frowned, her brows drawing down over the bridge of her nose. She slipped the tip of her pink tongue between her lips and swiped at the bead of wetness seeping from the slit in Varin’s cock. “What about cum? Is that treasured, too?”

  Varin slid his fingers in her curls and tugged her mouth forward. She opened to him while overlapping Luke’s hand with her much smaller one and stroking his throbbing shaft. Varin pushed his cock inside the willing cavern of her mouth, sending a jolt of envy to slither down Luke’s spine.

  “No, sweetheart,” Varin said. “Cum is swallowed.”

  The sound of Heidi’s throaty laugh reached Luke through a haze of sheer lust. Even muffled by Varin’s cock, it still desperately made Luke want to come. He watched her through narrowed eyelids as her mouth flew up and down the length of Varin’s thick shaft, her lips pursed in concentration as she sucked, nibbled and kissed her way along the tender skin.

  She’d tightened her grip on Luke’s cock, stroking him with the same rhythm she applied to Varin’s rod. Her hand moved in unison with her mouth, smearing a drop of Luke’s pre-cum down his shaft all the way to his balls, slicking the surface of his cock.

  He shuddered beneath her touch and closed his eyes, wishing it was the wet, warm heat of her mouth enveloping him, her tongue tingling against his shaft, her teeth just barely making contact with the hypersensitive skin of his cock head.

  And then, it was.

  He gasped and blinked his eyes open in time to see her take the entire length of his cock between her lips. He felt the tip of his rod nudge the back of her throat and his entire shaft spasmed in an uncontrollable twitch. The familiar sweep of impending orgasm traveled through him at lightning-speed and then he was lost, tumbling over the edge, spilling his seed in spurts down her throat.

  The steady sucking of her mouth never faltered. She siphoned his cum as though she’d been hungrily waiting for it her entire life, sipping at the tip of his cock, wrapping those full, luscious lips around the crown and catching every last drop of liquid on her tongue.

  The touch of Heidi’s soft lips on his soaked flesh grounded him, bringing him back to reality as the last remnants of his climax seeped from his cock. Breathless, Luke gripped her shoulders with both hands and used her steadying presence to hold himself upright.

  He barely noticed Varin’s hand cupping Heidi’s head, or his fingers fisting in her hair, but he caught the exact moment the other man yanked on her curls, forcing her head back. Luke’s cock slid out of Heidi’s mouth to hang quiescently against his inner thigh as Varin pulled her to her feet.

  She gave an indignant squeal. “What do you think you’re doing?”

  “What I should have done from the first moment you appeared in this room.” Varin shouldered Luke out of his way. Too stunned to stop him, Luke stepped aside.

  “And what’s --”

  Varin silenced her by lifting her to her feet and tossing her over his shoulder without so much as a grunt of effort. He strode the ten steps it took to reach the bed, then threw her down on the soft mattress. She landed with another squeak, her body bouncing lightly on the bed.

  “I’m going to give you what you want.” He darted a look over his shoulder at Luke, who crossed the distance to the bed to once again stand at Varin’s side.

  Heidi’s gaze darted from Luke to Varin and she scooted up to the head of the bed. Lava streams dripped down the surface of the phosphorous wall that served as a headboard. Her curls nearly brushed the molten rock. “You’re going to fuck me, and then let me kill you both so I can figure out if I am who Baal says I am?”

  Varin’s grin looked absolutely predatory as he climbed onto the mattress beside Heidi. He grabbed her ankles and yanked until she slid down the surface of the red silk sheets, her thighs parted, her pussy wet and gaping for their inspection. “Well, at least you got the first part right.” He looked up and met Luke’s gaze, his features turning serious once again. “We’re going to need rope.”

  “R-rope?” Heidi’s voice trembled as she echoed Varin. “What for?”

  Something heavy lodged in Varin’s chest. It felt a lot like fear, anger and unbridled lust rolled into one, only more potent and much more terrifying.

  Damn it! Why couldn’t she
have just stayed home, tucked into her own warm bed, completely safe from the perils she’d invited upon herself by following them to this forsaken place?

  He forced a chuckle to glide through his dry throat. “For your own safety, of course.”

  She squirmed beneath him, causing the scent of her musky arousal to waft up to his nose. He inhaled deeply, waiting for Luke to return. The man had wasted no time doing as Varin asked, and that knowledge also added another level of unease to the uncomfortable sensations coursing through him.

  He was in love with Heidi, that much was clear even to him. But the emotions that Luke kindled in him were just as terrifying. He wanted to protect them both and ensure their safety. Down here, in the bowels of the Underworld, no one would look out for them. They were at Baal’s mercy, unless he put a stop to the madness threatening to erupt around them at any moment now.

  He had no doubt that Baal was watching. The Lord of the Underworld was keenly aware of everything that went on in his kingdom, and he’d taken a particular interest in Heidi. Baal’s well-executed plan wouldn’t mean a thing if he wasn’t around to enjoy the fruits of his labor. So he’d be watching, assessing every one of Heidi’s moves.

  Which left Varin with only one option. He had to win Heidi’s trust in the quickest amount of time and then convince her of her true identity. There was only one way he could think of achieving that within the constraints provided.

  “Will this do?” Luke asked, handing him a strip of red silk he’d torn from a matching pillowcase.

  Varin nodded. Before Heidi could react, he grabbed both her ankles and slipped the fabric around them, binding them tightly together. Her chest heaved, her full breasts bouncing with each strenuous breath.

  “I thought I was the one giving orders.” She flicked her fingertips, sending a shower of sparks to careen over the bed.

  The threat in the gesture was clear, but Varin only shrugged. “Playtime’s over. Death is serious business.”

  She licked her lips as he tied a firm knot around her ankles, securing them tightly. “And sex? Is that serious business, too?”

  Luke climbed on the bed. His cock had hardened again after spending its seed, and now it looked flushed and ready for more. “More serious for some of us than for others.” Luke looked up at Varin and winked.

  Varin’s breath caught in his throat. The sight of the man’s easy smile sent a jolt of arousal spearing straight into his groin, jerking his shaft. Only Luke could still tease at a time like this. Even Hell’s torment hadn’t been able to strip him of his ability to find a touch of amusement in every situation.

  “Extremely,” Varin murmured. He gripped Heidi’s waist firmly between his broad hands, then lifted her and swung her over his lap so she lay face down splayed across his knees.

  She writhed, smearing some of her cream across his skin. The intoxicating scent of her arousal betrayed her desperate need. “You wouldn’t dare! I can still fry you with a flick of my fingertips.”

  Varin raised his palm and dropped it like a heavy weight to land across the perfect round globe of her right cheek. She yelped, sending a bolt of lightning to scatter across the floor, where it harmlessly fizzled out in the middle of the room.

  “You could,” Varin acknowledged, “but you won’t.”

  She swore at him then, using some of the most inventive streams of profanity he’d ever heard. While she ranted, he continued to slap her ass, leaving red streaks in the wake of his palm across her pale flesh.

  Luke’s fingers skimmed across the back of Heidi’s legs, past her knees to burrow into the crevice at the apex of her thighs. His thumb slipped easily between her labia, spreading the sticky nether lips open and burrowing into her wet channel.

  She gasped, arching her back as Varin landed another hard smack to her delectable ass. Luke smeared some of her cream across her folds and down her inner thigh. Then he scooped out a little more and used it to slick the surface of Varin’s shaft with the moisture, sending a shudder to travel from Varin’s cock throughout every other extremity.

  “You don’t have to do this,” Varin said between gritted teeth.

  Luke blinked at him, all blue-eyed innocence. “Do what?” He stroked Varin’s shaft, while the fingers of his other hand delved back into Heidi’s cunt. His middle and index fingers pumped in and out of her, eliciting small moans and gasps of pleasure from her throat.

  Her ass burned bright red, tempting Varin to strike her again. His cock twitched against Luke’s hand. The man’s palm glided easily down his shaft now, slick with Heidi’s cream and Varin’s pre-cum, which dripped from the slit in the flushed head of his rod.

  “Entice me. Pretend this is okay.” He spoke in a whisper, hoping neither Heidi nor Baal through his infernal eavesdropping could hear.

  “I wouldn’t. Except for the fact that it is okay. We need to show her who she is… and for that, she needs to know who you are. And what you can do.”

  Varin grunted an acknowledgement through gritted teeth. “Do you trust me, Heidi? Do you believe that I would never hurt you, just like I know you’d never hurt us?” He closed his eyes for only a moment, realizing he’d gone past the point of no return. Baal would be able to hear this. Any moment now, he could decide his plan had failed and storm through the door, ruining every last chance they had of reawakening Heidi to her true identity. “Do you know, in your heart, that I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t believe you’d enjoy it?”

  Her answer was muffled by another moan as he caressed her backside with the heel of his palm, soothing the hurt. Parting her ass cheeks, he circled the tight rosebud of her anus with his fingertip.

  “Do. You. Trust. Me.” It wasn’t a question so much as a statement of intent. With each word, he slipped the tip of his finger farther inside her tight hole. She jerked her hips and arched her back, pushing harder against his hand and Luke’s, whose fingers still thrust in and out of her pussy.

  “I --”

  Varin’s finger slipped into her ass past the knuckle. “Say no and this all stops.”

  Say yes, baby. Oh, please say yes.

  “N -- Yes! Damn you. Yes!”

  He could have sworn the sigh of relief that escaped his throat thundered off the walls and echoed through the room. He slipped his finger out of her tight hole, leaving her back entrance gaping slightly. The secrets of that mysterious orifice were well known to him. This time, he wanted more.

  This time, he wanted her pussy.

  “Good.” He smacked her ass one last time. “On your knees.”

  Luke and Varin both rose from the bed and watched as Heidi struggled to rise. Her limbs shook with the effort, but she managed to get herself into a kneeling position on all fours, arms stretched out, fists gripping handfuls of sheet fabric.

  “Hold on, baby,” Varin whispered as he indicated to Luke using hand gestures exactly what he wanted him to do. “You’re in for the ride of your life.”

  Chapter Five

  Heidi braced her outstretched hands against the mattress and clenched her jaw, forcing her breathing to return to normal. Her entire body burned from the inside, trembling with the onslaught of sensations streaming through her.

  Magic tickled her fingertips. A crackle of blue energy zinged up her arm, reminding her that she was the one in control here. She repeated that comforting thought to herself, pleased when her hammering heartbeat smoothed to a more normal rhythm.

  “If I’m dead…” Her voice faltered. She cleared her throat and tried again. “If I’m dead, how is it that I can still breathe? Or feel my heart race? Or… get wet?”

  And so amazingly aroused that I could come again and again and again and still not feel like I’ve had enough?

  Someone shifted behind her. She refused to turn her head for a better look, knowing that if she caught even a slight glimpse of either man, she wouldn’t be able to hold herself upright any longer. Her limbs would quiver like a gelatinous ball, and she’d end up sprawled face-first on the bed, completel
y at Luke and Varin’s mercy.

  Not that her current position was much better, but it allowed her a small measure of control -- or at least the illusion of it.

  “If there’s one thing I’ve learned since being brought here, it’s that life and death are not the fluid concepts we’ve been led to believe they are.” Luke tucked a loose curl behind Heidi’s ear, clearing her field of vision. From the corner of her eye, Heidi could make out the powerful muscles of his thighs as he moved. His cock had hardened again. It stood proudly rigid against his flat abs, curving inward slightly at the tip. A drop of wetness smeared the tiny slit, drawing her gaze to the thick, bulbous head.

  Heidi’s mouth went dry. She tried to come up with some clever retort, but she couldn’t muster anything more than a guttural groan.

  A stack of pillows slid beneath Heidi’s stomach. She collapsed gratefully against them, glad to relieve the pressure coiled in her tense muscles.

  “As for the arousal,” Varin said, slipping a finger between her soaked folds, “that’s all our doing.”

  She released the breath she’d been holding on an indignant huff. “Of all the arrogant, conceited --”

  Varin parted the lips of her sex with his thumbs and positioned the head of his cock at the entrance to her pussy. Her channel instantly clenched in eager anticipation.

  “You might not know us, Heidi, but your body does. This fragrant, sexy cunt knows everything about us.”

  Heidi’s face heated. She wondered how many times they’d played this game, how often she took them both to her chamber and allowed them to entertain her in sensual, delectably carnal ways.

  Before she could respond, Varin thrust the fat tip of his cock into her channel. It slipped in easily, stretching her cunt to accommodate his thick girth.

  The relief and sheer pleasure that swept through her was almost more than she could bear. If the pillows hadn’t been supporting her weight, she’d certainly have collapsed against the bed from the potent rush of ecstasy flooding her core.

  A harsh moan caught in Heidi’s throat, though it still seemed to echo impossibly loud through the cavernous room. “I know this,” she acknowledged, blinking back the sting of tears that pricked her eyes.
