The Dom Claims His Cougar
Noah Quinn and Ezra Anderson want to mate with Verity Griffin. But Verity is confused. Someone has been stalking the women on Facebook, terrifying them. Other rogue panthers are still free to harass them, and everything seems to be moving way too fast. She wants to be consulted about their future life and have a house of her own. Fortunately there’s a wedge of land at the corner of the movie studio and Carnal Connections where they can build their house and should be reasonably safe.
With the postponement of their mating, Noah organizes a surprise for Verity. Will it make their sex life even better or just put more barriers between them?
Danger still surrounds them. How long will it take before the house is ready and they can finally be together? And will the men be able to keep Verity safe in their new house?

Chapter One
Verity had no intention of sitting at her desk working, or even pretending to work, when Michael Michaelson, the IT geek, was there to tell her boss who the person was who’d been hacking the panther women’s Facebook and Twitter accounts.
Even now, the memory of seeing her sister’s profile picture changed to that of a panther with its belly ripped open almost made her vomit. And the pictures of her friend Autumn’s craft projects had been replaced by scenes of Rwandan war graves and images from porn sites. Sick. The person who’d done this was sick.
“Can’t you even give us a hint who it is?” asked her twin, Serena, batting big hazel eyes at him.
“Nope.” MM’s round baby face split in a grin as he smiled back at them.
“It has to be either Drew or Charlie. They’re the only ones who’ve been smart enough to stay out of trouble so far,” said Verity. She watched MM closely, but his face gave nothing away. Innocent and bland was all she was getting from his body language, and his eyes were guileless. Huh. Bastard.
Serena tried quizzing MM again but got nowhere. Fortunately for their self-control, the CEO of DNK Technology, Donald Thomas, his personal assistant, Heidi, Omar, the Alpha of Verity and Serena’s pack, and Larry, the business manager at Carnal Connections, the BDSM community where they lived, arrived before too long.
Mr. Thomas marched straight through the department to the conference room and Serena and Verity just tagged on to the end of the line, following everyone there. Verity made sure she took a seat at the conference table where she had a clear view of both MM and Mr. Thomas. Serena sat on the opposite side of the table from her. That was a damn smart move. It meant that between them they could see everyone’s reactions perfectly. But who the fuck was the bad guy? It had to be Drew or Charlie. The other rogue panthers, even Jim, were just too stupid to have hacked people’s accounts so successfully.
“Well done for solving this problem so swiftly, Michael. Who did it? One of our competitors no doubt,” said Mr. Thomas. The CEO leaned forward, his gaze sharp and penetrating.
Of course. He’d be more worried about DNK Technology secrets leaking out to the competition than the safety of women he didn’t even know.
Verity flicked a glance around the conference table. Everyone was staring at MM. The room was deathly silent. And MM was milking their attention for every second he could get. Well, so he should, she supposed. He had solved the problem fast, after all.
“Sam Brooks. Leticia’s father. It’s just as well Carnal Connections gave us a complete list of the people who’d been harassing them, as I hadn’t considered it might be Sam at all. He’s left all sorts of back trails to an online site teaching computer hacking. Fortunately it’s a rather basic site, so he never learned anything too worrying. I’ve had a quick look at the company files and they seem secure, but I’ll take a closer look at them later today, likely tighten up some firewalls and passwords. Sam’s accessed some decent password-cracking tools, but I don’t think he’s after our products. I think he was determined to upset his daughter and her friends,” said MM.
“But he’s in jail. How can he get onto such websites in jail?” asked Larry.
“I’d like to know that, too. Heidi, call our c
ongresswoman and set up a meeting with her. This just isn’t good enough. We can’t have convicted felons using their jail time to attack businesses and people. Our CCTV cameras caught one of these people in our parking lot. They could still be working for our competitors, trying to throw us off their scent and then come and attack us another way. Michael, keep checking for other possible infiltrations into our products and services. I’m not yet convinced these people aren’t going to blindside us with an attack on our company. ”
Omar spoke slowly, thoughtfully. “I understand that Sam Brooks wanted to attack Leticia since his physical attempts to hurt her failed. And I suppose he wanted to get back at the other women for supporting Leticia. But I’d like to have a meeting with his counselor and psychiatrist. They’re supposed to be helping him overcome his irrational anger at his two children.”
Donald Thomas was frowning, obviously assimilating all this new information at warp speed. Heidi was busy taking notes. MM had likely discovered a whole lot about the community that Larry and Omar would prefer had been kept hidden, but they’d needed to get to the bottom of the attack and it wasn’t like the police could help them.
Verity tuned out of the conversations at that point. She had the information she’d wanted to know. Sam was a nutcase, a screwup, and deserved to stay in jail for a long time. Likely he would now that he’d reoffended. Although, was hacking a crime? Probably. It was certainly antisocial behavior, and Sam seemed to specialize in that. He’d always seemed so ordinary until he’d gone strange over trying to protect Leticia. Well, his definition of protect anyway. It was more like “lock her up and hide her” than protect her. But he’d been a normal, although somewhat ineffectual, man before that. Verity could remember when Sam’s brother, George, was the pack Alpha and Sam had been his assistant. She couldn’t recall Sam doing anything amazing or special, but he hadn’t been obviously crazy back then, either.
At least Leticia had turned out normal, and it seemed like David was going to be normal, too. He’d settled down well in the community, had learned a trade really quickly, and was just like anyone else, really. Hopefully he wouldn’t go weird like Sam.
But seriously, what would happen now? The bastard was already in jail and still he was attacking them, frightening them, preventing them from living ordinary lives. Seeing the sick pictures he’d posted onto their Facebook profiles had scared them all.
Verity turned her thoughts to her two wonderful men, Noah and Ezra. They’d protect her. She loved them and knew they loved her. Even now they were planning her mating ceremony and then the three of them would live in a room in the main building at Carnal Connections across the hall from Serena.
Noah. So tall, with broad shoulders and muscular arms, thick black hair, and dark-brown eyes. Ezra, not quite so tall but still considerably taller than her own five foot eight, his hair and eyes light brown. Both of them totally delicious.
They’d been coming to BDSM events at Carnal Connections for a while and she’d been instantly attracted to their personalities. Noah, more determined and a leader. Ezra, a caring and clever man who made her feel special. So often people thought of her and her sister as a unit, “the twins,” “the cougar twins,” or worse, they scarcely noticed Verity standing there in her noisier sister’s shadow. But Noah and Ezra had never looked at Serena. They’d come for her and made it quite clear she was who they wanted, she was the one they loved.
Unlike her sister Serena’s two mates, Pete and Josh, who were panthers, the two men Verity loved were humans. Verity remembered how Noah and Ezra had burst into the barn, the meeting place at Carnal Connections, and demanded of Omar permission to marry her. They’d even said they’d planned to mate her next summer but had decided not to wait that long because of the trouble with the rogue panthers. Then they’d told her how much they loved her in front of everyone there.
Of course that wasn’t quite as romantic as it may have sounded, because they’d also said they were frightened she would’ve thrown a tantrum if they’d just assumed she agreed to mate them without them asking her properly. Her twin sister, Serena, hadn’t just thrown a tantrum. She’d thrown plates, crockery, and a vase at Pete and Josh when they hadn’t said anything about loving her. Then she’d stolen Pete’s truck and left them with no way to get home. Her sister always was the more fiery one of them. But still, it was good to know Noah and Ezra were wise to the need to ask and to say they loved her.
Internally, she smiled at the thought of them busy planning their mating. It was to be a BDSM party just like her and Serena’s twenty-first. She knew they were also booking one of the private dungeons for afterward, too. And of course there’d be some time spent outdoors, which was why they’d originally intended to mate her in summer. Still, their urgency to protect her was decidedly romantic as well. It made her feel so excited inside. They loved her and wanted her.
Mr. Thomas was more than capable of taking care of that bastard, Sam. Everything was going to be wonderful.
* * * *
Ezra Anderson was bent over a whipping bench, his hands and feet cuffed to the bench, his ass elevated for easy whipping. He’d been Noah Quinn’s sub for over a year now, but it wasn’t until they’d met Verity at a Carnal Connections BDSM party that he’d felt there was any hope for a permanent relationship. Both he and Noah liked to fuck women. But there’d only been one woman he’d ever wanted to fuck since the day he’d seen Verity. The night she turned twenty-one had been so freeing because then he and Noah could finally take her the way they wanted to, as a true ménage.
Up until then they’d kissed her and touched her, ensured she knew she was theirs, but panthers insisted a woman be twenty-one before she was considered fully adult, before there was any ménage sex, so they’d had to wait. It’d only been a few months, but it had seemed more like years. Waiting for her had been the hardest thing he’d ever had to do. Now they were to be mated, to express their love for each other, and to live together forever.
Verity and Serena Griffin were actually cougars. Ezra wasn’t exactly sure how it worked, panthers were panthers to him, but to the pack, the differences between panther, puma, and cougar were obvious, and the twins were cougars.
Ezra used his peripheral vision to stare at Verity. She was manacled to another bench to his right. Her reddish-brown bob-cut hair had fallen forward to reveal her delicate neck, and of course he couldn’t see her face at all, but he knew her hazel-brown eyes would be sparkling. She loved the tension and drama of BDSM sex as much as the two men did. She wasn’t as willful and perverse as her sister, but she was known to push the boundaries to test Noah. Ezra knew Noah delighted in that deliberate disobedience which so truly demonstrated she wanted more.
Ezra loved her wicked mind, too. He loved the fire and spirit in her that showed she was so much more than just a sexy body. She was all woman, but that included her female way of looking at life, which opened his male mind up to a whole spectrum of new possibilities.
Just then the cane cracked onto his own ass. Sharp, hard, a distinct sting. Ezra relaxed into his bindings and waited for the next stroke and the next. Six hard lines burned into his ass, heating it on the outside and heating him on the inside. Burns so good. His cock had already been hard with the excitement of the three of them being together in the dungeon, but now it was growing longer, harder. Soon he’d have to start exerting control over it so he didn’t come too soon.
Ezra could hear the cane cracking down on Verity. He knew Noah wouldn’t punish her as forcefully as he’d punished Ezra. Their Dom knew exactly how hard to hit, where to hit, and how often to hit them so that they both received maximum pleasure.
Now the cane burned a fiery line across his shoulders, then another, and another. Before he could catch his breath it was slashing across his butt again, this time at an angle across the marks already there. His shoulders heated, but nothing like the deep burn of his ass. Damn, that felt good. The intense, sharp pains were so freeing. It was as if the more his ass hurt, th
e more his spirit soared free. He didn’t consider himself the least bit poetic, but it was pure poetry, the way the pain in his ass released the pleasure bound tightly inside him so that he could relax into each stroke of the cane, knowing his pleasure would only rise higher and higher.
Even when Noah stopped working on him and turned his attention to Verity, Ezra’s ass burned hot and his mind was filled with joy and happiness. He was with the woman he loved and the Dom who knew exactly how to ensure all three of them would explode into thrilling orgasms. Soon they’d all fly higher and harder together as they fucked.
Noah unlocked the cuffs on Ezra’s hands and feet. “Stand upright and wait,” ordered the Dom.
Ezra did so, pulling his aching ass muscles tight, loving the extra burn he got from forcing his body vertical.
He watched as Noah uncuffed Verity and held her arm as she steadied herself until she was standing in the approved position, head down, feet shoulder-width apart, body still.
“Ezra, kneel at her feet.”
Silently he did as his Dom had ordered him, wondering what Noah had planned for them to do next.
“Verity, put your left leg on Ezra’s shoulder.”
As soon as she did so he could smell her arousal. Fuck, she smelled so good. His mouth watered with the need to taste her. His fingers itched with the need to touch her. Fuck! He wanted her so bad. His cock must have grown another couple inches he was so hard with the desperate desire to drive deep into the welcome heat of her cunt.
