Bernard, Lynnette - Laurie's Loves [Beckett's Wolf Pack, Triad Mates] (Siren Publishing Ménage and More)

by Lynnette Bernard

  “I have kisses four, five, and six planned for when Julia and I come back from shopping,” she told them quietly, smiling up at them with open desire.

  “Baby, you’re going to kill us,” Jace told her, laughing as he leaned down to kiss her lips gently before standing and pulling her up to stand before him.

  Laurie smiled as he reached up and gently caressed her cheek with the back of his hand. Her breath caught in her throat as he lowered his hand to tenderly rub against her breast with the back of his fingers, smiling when she moaned with pleasure as her nipple pebbled beneath his ministrations.

  I’m going to take your clothes off and bury my cock deep inside you, honey. His voice was deep with passion as he spoke to her in her mind. Jackson is going to hold you up so you don’t hurt yourself, and then I’m going to return the favor for him so he can feel the pure pleasure of being gripped by your sweet pussy.

  Jackson’s growl of approval sounded behind her as he stepped forward and helped Jace remove her clothing, one article at a time, taking the time to kiss and suckle every bit of her flesh as it was revealed. By the time she was totally naked, standing before them, she was shaking with desire.

  “Oh, God,” Laurie moaned, “I can’t wait anymore.” She reached out and held both men to her, loving the feel of their hard bodies pressed against her.

  Jackson lifted her carefully as Jace swept the contents off the top of his desk, reaching out to take Laurie’s legs and position her exactly as he wanted her. Jackson’s hands cupped her breasts, kneading them gently and pinching her nipples lightly. Her moan was met by his growl as he leaned down and nuzzled her neck, licking at his mating mark as his excitement grew.

  Jace looked at Laurie and leaned toward her to capture her lips, unable to hold back the passion he was feeling for their mate. She leaned toward him, holding onto his shoulders as he pulled her hips toward his waiting erection. In one smooth move, he pushed inside her, loving the clenching of her passage around him. She was wet and ready for him. When she reached down to pull his at hips so he was able to bury himself deeper inside of her, he lost any measure of control that he had on himself. He thrust into her with unbridled lust, unable to stop himself from slamming into her and taking her hard.

  “Laurie, please tell me this is okay,” he gasped as his body gave in to the deep need to claim her this way.

  “Harder,” she moaned, reaching up to tangle her fingers in his soft black hair and pulling him toward her to devour his mouth.

  Jackson reached down, rubbing his finger into her wet heat to gather her crème, then slid his finger up to rub roughly against her clit. Jace’s roar of release matched Laurie’s whimper as she found her own completion.

  Jace leaned forward and bit into her shoulder where his mark already graced her beautiful skin, growling as his shaft knotted inside her, pulsed, and released his life seed deeply into her waiting body. Sucking her blood into his mouth, he tasted the difference in her and smiled against her soft skin, loving the reason for the change and knowing that Laurie was not aware of it yet.

  Laurie pet his back as he removed his canines from her shoulder and licked the bite closed. Small tremors passed through her as she felt the knot rub against the most sensitive spot inside her channel as pulse after pulse of his release was expelled deep within her. At that moment, that connection of his joining, she knew a sense of completion that she had only found with these wonderful, caring men.

  Holding her tenderly as their bodies calmed, Jace lightly kissed Laurie’s forehead and leaned his cheek against the side of her face. The sense of peace he felt was strong. Waiting for the mating knot to recede was not a hardship at all. It allowed him to hold the woman who meant the world to him.

  Once the knot released, Jace pulled out gently, careful to not hurt their mate. Leaning forward, he kissed her lips lightly, gathering her in his arms once again and holding her against his chest tenderly. He had no words. Instead, he opened his heart to her so she could feel the utter joy and contentment he was feeling because of her. At Laurie’s sigh, he knew that she had felt his emotions.

  Pulling back, he looked down at her, smiling at her totally disheveled and well-loved appearance. “Come here, sweetheart,” he whispered, taking her in his arms and gently turning her so that she rested against his chest and she faced Jackson.

  She opened her eyes slowly and smiled at Jackson. He looked at her with complete devotion, his desire for her obvious. His eyes glowed golden, and his cock pulsed as it lay heavily on the top of the desk. She saw his hesitation and couldn’t deny she wanted him just as deeply as she wanted Jace.

  “Jackson, I need you,” she whispered, reaching out to take him into her embrace.

  “Baby,” Jackson moaned as his mouth covered hers, devouring her.

  She reached down and guided him into her body, moaning with pleasure as his length was buried deep inside her. He began to move, slowly at first, quickly picking up speed and strength. She leaned back against Jace, knowing he would hold her and make sure she wouldn’t fall.

  Jace’s left hand covered her belly as his right hand reached down to gently stroke her already sensitive nub. He smiled as Laurie moaned between the two of them.

  “Don’t hold back, Jackson. I won’t break,” she whispered, gasping as she reached out to pull him toward her chest.

  Jackson’s hips thrust forward, slamming his cock deep into Laurie’s depths. His mouth sought her shoulder, his canines descended, and he quickly bit into their mate’s neck where his mating mark already declared her as his. Sucking deeply, he drew her blood into his mouth, loving the taste of her. He smiled against her soft skin as she screamed her release against his neck. She held him tightly to her as his cock knotted and locked inside her as he emptied another load of seed into her waiting womb.

  Moments passed, but neither moved, each content to hold the other in their arms. Jace smiled against the back of Laurie’s neck, kissing it lightly as he nuzzled against her. He would never get enough of her.

  Jackson slowly withdrew from her warmth once the mating knot released and moved away from the desk, carefully pulling Laurie with him. Making sure that she was steady on her feet, he leaned down to pick up her bra and reached out to gently put it back on her. He hooked it carefully, rubbing his thumbs across her still-sensitive nipples before pulling away and smiling down at her. The soft moan that escaped her made his heart light with happiness at her total acceptance of his touch.

  Jace was beside them quickly, helping Laurie put her shirt back on, kissing her lips lightly as he reached down to pick up her underwear and pants. Stepping back, he couldn’t prevent the smile that came to his face as she stood before him, naked from the waist down.

  “Why are you smiling?” Laurie asked him shyly.

  “Our mate looks good naked, doesn’t she, Jackson?” Jace teased, reaching out to cover her mound gently.

  Jackson smiled and moved toward them, reaching out to touch Laurie’s face gently. “She does, Jace,” he said quietly. “I love seeing her naked.” He winked at her. “I especially love seeing our seed dripping down her legs.”

  Laurie gasped and grabbed her panties from Jace’s hand. She wiped at her legs carefully. “You guys certainly have an abundance of seed,” she said quietly, quickly pulling on her underwear and jeans. Looking up, she froze at the sight of the two men as they stared down at her.

  Both men stepped toward her slowly, reaching out to enfold her in their embrace. “Only for you, Laurie,” Jace whispered, closing his eyes as he tenderly kissed her forehead.

  Jackson leaned his face against her cheek. “For the rest of our lives,” he whispered against her ear.

  Laurie couldn’t have spoken at that moment if her life had depended upon it. She could feel their sincerity, and it scared her. She didn’t know what to feel about their level of devotion. Other than her two children and her best friend Nikki, she had never had anyone care about her in her entire life, and she didn’t know how to react.<

  Even though she still had doubts and worriedly questioned her worth, she determinedly pushed away her fears. She desperately wanted the future these men offered her, and she was going to hang on to them with all the strength she could muster.

  “I think I need to go clean up and change,” she whispered, stepping out of their embrace to look up at them.

  “I think you should stay exactly as you are,” Jackson teased. “I want everyone to smell our scent on you.”

  Laurie blushed and giggled. Honest to God giggled! What was wrong with her? She was turning into a giddy teenager!

  Jace smiled at her happiness. He kissed her quickly and stepped back, reaching down to take his cock in hand.

  Laurie laughed and reached out to push both his and Jackson’s hands away as they tried to tuck themselves away. “Mine,” she told them, gently taking Jace’s softened cock in her hand and carefully placing him back into his jeans and zipping him closed with utmost care. Gently cupping his sensitive cock one last time, she smiled up at him as she watched his eyes close with pure pleasure and contentment. Turning to Jackson, she repeated the process then stepped back and smiled shyly.

  “Now you’re shy?” Jackson laughed, reaching out to tap her nose affectionately.

  Laurie couldn’t stop the blush that crossed her face. “I just came to say good-bye before you distracted me,” she told them, ignoring Jackson’s comment. “Julia and I are meeting my friend Nikki at the mall.”

  “Alexander and Butler will be going with you,” Jace told her seriously, reaching out to tuck her soft hair behind her ear.

  “Why?” Laurie asked, confused by his switch to alpha mode.

  “If Jackson and I can’t be with you, you will have our lieutenants with you,” he told her seriously, his tone allowing no discussion. “We will never take a chance with your safety, Laurie.”

  Laurie looked to Jackson for support but saw the same hardened expression on his face. “This is not up for debate, honey,” he told her softly. “Now that you’re the female alpha of our pack, our queen, you’re open to the dangers of anyone who would try to hurt you or our pack.”

  “I’m the what?” Laurie nearly squeaked. “I can’t be an alpha, and I’m certainly no queen.”

  Jace stepped forward and gently reached out to take her into his arms. Jackson stepped up behind her and plastered his body against her back.

  “Baby, you are,” Jace told her softly. “Don’t think you aren’t. You have a fierceness in you that shows us you would protect our people, our children, me, or Jackson,” he explained carefully. “It’s the job of the alpha female to keep our pack members focused and our families close. You lead by example, honey. And the love you show our people let them know that they’re important members of our pack.”

  “We couldn’t have hoped for a better alpha female,” Jackson told her with complete sincerity, kissing her neck gently before licking his mating mark, making her shiver with desire.

  “Alexander and Butler will go with you and Julia,” Jace told her with finality.

  Laurie looked up at him and smiled. “Yes, Alpha,” she told him quietly, not missing the way his eyes flashed golden at her words.

  “I’m not playing, Laurie,” he warned her seriously, taking her neck in his large hand and pulling her toward him so he could impress upon her the need they had to keep her safe.

  Jackson reached around Laurie and rested his hand on Jace’s shoulder, needing to calm his alpha just as much as he needed to calm himself. Just thinking about Laurie getting hurt or taken from them caused his heart to beat rapidly in his chest.

  “Please, baby,” Jackson whispered against the side of her face. “We need you to be safe.”

  Laurie closed her eyes, her knees nearly buckling at the wave of emotion the men sent to her through their bond. Their caring and concern surrounded her.

  “Okay,” she told them, sighing, finally giving in. “But they are not going into the store we want to go into. They can wait outside the entrance.”

  “What store do you want to go into?” Jackson asked, smiling down at her.

  “Never mind,” Laurie told him, pulling away from them both and walking over to the office door. She opened it quickly then turned back to face them both and smiled. “But when I get back and wear what I want to buy, you’ll get kiss number four.” She turned and walked out of the office, quietly closing the door behind her.

  “Hell,” Jace whispered.

  “I’m hard again,” Jackson groaned.

  Chapter 15

  “Laurie, that color is perfect for you,” Julia told her, smiling at the sensuality of the lilac colored negligee that she was trying on. “It’s beautiful.”

  Laurie smiled at her reflection in the dressing room mirror. She looked up to see both Julia and her friend Nikki looking at her with big smiles on their faces.

  “I can’t wait to meet these two hotties that have you so in love,” Nikki told her, laughing with pure joy at the happiness of her good friend.

  “Who said I’m in love?” Laurie turned to face her best friend, stunned that she had called her on her feelings so quickly.

  “Oh, come on!” Nikki snorted. “Look who you’re talking to, honey. I’ve known you forever. You’ve never been so happy. Certainly not with Pigface.”

  Laurie couldn’t stop the laughter that burst from her. Nikki had been her best friend since fifth grade. Nikki knew everything about her marriage and the abuse she had been subjected to. How many times had Nikki physically put herself between Laurie and her ex? More times than she cared to think about. Nikki, above anyone else, knew the depths to which her ex had hurt her physically, emotionally, and verbally.

  Despite Nikki’s innocent and fun-loving demeanor, she was a powerhouse. She was fiercely protective of Laurie and her children. Being a nurse, she was often the one to take care of the injuries Laurie had sustained at the hands of her abusive ex. She had also protected Laurie’s babies from the time they were born and was a second mother to them. They loved her to death, as did Laurie.

  “Nikki, I never said I loved them,” Laurie protested again halfheartedly.

  “Right,” Nikki answered quickly, waving her hand at her friend, dismissing her words. “Honey, you and I both know you would never be intimate with those men without truly caring about them.” She crossed her arms across her chest and stared at her friend. “Go ahead and tell me otherwise.”

  “Tell me, too,” Julia chimed in, taking the exact same stance.

  Laurie looked at her two friends and knew she wouldn’t be able to deny her feelings to either woman. Both looked ready to take her on. She couldn’t help but smile at the united front that the pair made. Talk about an odd couple. Julia looked soft and sweet, her soft brown hair pulled up into a ponytail, her golden brown eyes showing caring and concern as she looked at Laurie. She wore a soft pink maternity dress that hugged her form just enough to accent her belly, swollen with the new life that she carried. She looked like the most contented and perfect mother. Looking at her brought tears to Laurie’s eyes.

  Nikki, on the other hand, was dressed in tight, black jeans and a red baby-doll shirt, accentuating her full curves. Her short black hair was styled in layers to brush her shoulders, and her blue eyes flashed with defiance as she dared Laurie to try and lie to her. Despite her tough attitude, Laurie knew the sensitivity that Nikki possessed. She had never met a kinder or more caring person. She also knew the deep loneliness Nikki felt. She worked so many hours at the hospital, she had no time to date. But Laurie knew that was just an excuse for Nikki. She knew her friend was afraid to put herself out there and meet anyone new. Her own bad experience with an ex-husband had made her determined not to give any other man control over her again. Nikki had kept her pain to herself, but Laurie knew it was deep and had hurt her beyond the ability to recover from it.

  “Okay, I give,” Laurie admitted. “You’re right. I do care about them very much.”

  “Aha!” Nikki sho
uted.

  “Quiet!” Laurie hissed. “Don’t go advertising it to the world.”

  Nikki leaned in and whispered so that only Laurie and Julia could hear her. “Sorry, honey. I’m happy for you. You deserve to be loved.”

  Laurie smiled. “You do, too, Nikki,” she said finally.

  Nikki’s face registered a brief moment of sadness before she turned to face Julia. “Let’s get the same negligee in another color. And we need to pick out some toys, too.” She reached out and took Laurie by the shoulders and turned her to face the mirror. “Take that off so we can pay for it. Do you want anything else?”

  “Whatever you think, Nikki,” Laurie told her honestly. “I really wouldn’t know what else to pick. It’s been so long since I’ve bought anything pretty for myself.”

  Nikki’s eyes softened as she looked at her dear friend. She, more than anyone else, knew exactly how Laurie had lived for the past fifteen years, scraping by to support herself and her children. In all those years, Laurie had refused any monetary help from Nikki. She was a proud woman who had been determined to make it on her own. Nikki had only been allowed to splurge on gifts, clothes, and food for the children but had never been allowed to help Laurie.

  Nikki also knew how Laurie had been abused during her marriage and the toll it had taken on her self-esteem. Even though Laurie’s marriage had only lasted five years, it had nearly destroyed her. And the fact that her ex-husband continued to torment her and threaten her made it so that Laurie was never allowed to feel safe or confident in herself. Nikki was determined to make sure that Laurie had some happiness and confidence now that she had found not one but two men who seemed to have taken her within their hearts.

  “Leave it to me,” Nikki told her, winking. “I’m sure your men will thank me later.”

  Laurie blushed and looked away, unable to say a word. She closed the dressing room door, looking at her reflection once again, surprised at the sight before her. She couldn’t prevent the happiness that filled her. She actually felt beautiful, and she knew that it was because of the two men who waited for her back at the ranch.
