“A miscalculation?” another of his guards snorted. “Half a mile would have been a miscalculation. Three miles is blatant. You were in our airspace for a reason. What are you, a Fallen, doing on our lands?”
“I agree. It was blatant trespassing.” Leukos folded his arms. “What were you doing in our territory?”
“It was an accident,” the stranger pleaded, his hostility rapidly dissipating. “I s-swear,” he stammered.
“You can stop right there. I’m not buying any of it. My female was taken…” Leukos wasn’t sure how much to divulge. He decided to go the more cautious route in the end, since he couldn’t hold this male indefinitely for such a minor indiscretion. He didn’t want word getting back to Ekon that Claire and Magnar were there. “My spies tell me that Ekon’s general is missing too. You can cut the crap, or I’ll put you in our smallest cage and throw away the key. You are wasting my time.”
Just then, another male landed, shifting as he walked towards them. Leukos was certain it was Worth back from dropping off Claire, but he couldn’t be sure. He kept his eyes on the Fallen male, wanting answers.
The keythong’s eyes were wide. He cowered, shoulders slumped. “Okay…fine! I was looking for the general, Magnar. Ekon is angry he left us and is out for blood.”
Leukos suspected as much. “What of the human, Claire?”
He cocked his head. “Surely the female is safe here with you?” The male was fishing. “We don’t know anything about a female. If a human is missing, you should blame Magnar. It was most likely he who took her.”
Leukos ignored all the rubbish the male was spewing. “What is your name?”
“Gabin,” he muttered.
Leukos turned to Locke. “Take Gabin. Make sure he is fed and looked after.”
“Thank you, sire.” Gabin inclined his head.
“My generals and I will return soon. Be ready to talk, Gabin.” He glanced at Worth, who nodded once in greeting, before turning his eyes back to the Fallen male.
The keythong seemed to pale right before his eyes. “I’m sorry, sire.” He dropped his gaze. “I won’t be able to tell you much. I have a lowly rank. I was sent to find the traitor Magnar. I was told to bring him back. That’s all I know.”
“You were sent to bring Magnar back?” he spat. “One male, on his own? You planned on bringing him back singlehandedly?” Like hell!
Gabin nodded. “I am a strong male.”
Right! Magnar could beat this male with one hand tied behind his back.
It looked like they were going to get nothing out of Gabin. Ekon had trained his soldiers well. As much as they feared him, they were loyal to him as well. “You can take him.” He spoke to Locke who nodded once.
Once the group were out of earshot, he turned to Worth. “Did Claire get to Magnar safely?”
Worth nodded.
Leukos breathed out sharply. “I take it the male was there?”
Worth nodded a second time. “Yes, he was.” He scrutinized Leukos for a second. “You almost look relieved, which is odd. I would have thought that having the male out of your hair would have been better for you. You don’t look upset in any way.”
“I don’t mind healthy competition,” Leukos said. “I would prefer to win my female fair and square than to win by default.” He shrugged.
Worth seemed to think it over. “That makes sense.”
“You dropped Claire about twenty minutes ago?” He glanced at the sky, noting the position of the sun above the horizon.
“Yes, I came straight here after hearing about the keythong’s capture. It couldn’t have been more than twenty minutes ago.” He frowned. “Why? Do you need something?”
Leukos scratched his jaw. “I want Magnar to question Gabin. I think we have more to gain than to lose by revealing that he is here. Perhaps he knows Gabin.”
His eyes brightened. “Oh! That makes sense. Shall I go and fetch him?”
Leukos shook his head. “I will go myself. Aren’t you supposed to be having a day off?” He suddenly remembered.
Worth nodded. “Yes, but I decided an extra shift would do me good.”
Leukos cocked his head. “Let me guess, female troubles?”
“Something like that. After spending more time with Amy, I decided she is not a female I would like to mate. I therefore have extra time on my hands.” He shrugged, not looking too perturbed.
“Is she still seeing Locke?” Leukos hadn’t heard about the human leaving.
Worth nodded. “It would seem so.”
“There is another batch of females arriving tomorrow. You can try again then.”
Worth nodded.
“I’d better get going.” The grass crushed under Leukos’ bare feet, which turned into paws as he shifted. He flapped his wings, taking to the sky. With purpose, he flew to the nest he had assigned to Magnar. It was still quite early, they were probably eating breakfast and planning their day. He hoped they hadn’t left to go somewhere or his plans of using Magnar to question the keythong would be ruined. Magnar might just be able to get more information from the male. Magnar himself would need to be questioned soon, particularly since he was out of favor with Ekon. The Fallen general could prove to be useful.
Deep in thought, Leukos landed on the ledge and shifted. He was about to announce himself when he heard a deep, throaty groan that had all his blood rushing to his groin. Every last drop. Putting his hand on the wall, he paused, his heart thrumming in his chest. It was a sound he knew well. Claire. His female was orgasming…hard.
Blast!
Damn.
Tar and feathers.
Leukos took a small step back on the large stone ledge and was about to shift to leave when he heard Magnar’s deep voice. “Not today, sweetheart.” There was a pause. “Right now, I’m going to fuck you real slow.”
Leukos held his breath, he had to see what was happening. One quick peek. His entire body bristled. His feathers rubbed. His blood pumped through his veins.
No!
It would be all kinds of wrong.
“Have you ever begged, Claire?” Magnar asked, his voice had an edge. It was need, raw and primal need. Claire had that kind of effect on a male.
He tightened his hands into fists. Blast! Leukos had to look. He had to. It wasn’t like the other male had hesitated to do the same when the tables were turned. Using one hand, he pulled the curtain aside. Leukos swallowed thickly as he fixed his eyes on what was happening inside. His already hard prick took note right off the bat. Leukos found himself pulling the curtain further aside in order a get a better look. He stepped forward, the air catching in his lungs.
“I think it’s time you learned the art,” Magnar said, looking down at Claire. Her legs were over the male’s shoulders. Her head was tilted back, her cheeks were rosy. By the way she was panting, she was definitely sporting a just-come-hard look.
Leukos noted that she still wore a lacy set of underwear. It was a gorgeous color on her. She also wore a pair of long, black boots, the heels seemed to dig slightly into Magnar’s back. The male either didn’t care, or didn’t notice. It was hands-down the sexiest thing Leukos had ever seen. He had to bite back a groan that was building in his throat. Instead, he swallowed hard.
Magnar put his hand between her legs, pulling the lace aside. The male’s jeans were hanging half off his ass. His cock jutted from his body, long and thick against Claire’s ass. Her magnificent, plump rear looked stunning encased in sheer, turquoise lace.
Leukos should look away now. He knew that. This wasn’t right. Just then, Magnar’s ass tightened as he thrust into Claire. The human moaned. By feather and scale but Leukos was hard. His prick throbbed between his legs.
Claire moaned deeper on the second thrust, a primal sound that had his balls pulling tight. Magnar began fucking her, slowly and carefully, his ass making circular movements. From the sounds Claire was making, she was loving it. At this point, her knees were on either side of her head. Magnar had her folded almost
in half. It wasn’t a position he’d ever thought would work, but hell, it seemed to do the trick.
Leukos looked around him at the desolate countryside all around. This nest was more isolated than many of the others. There was no one about. He turned his eyes to the skies, noting the same. The sound of rutting drew his attention back to what was happening inside. Claire’s pants and moans were cut only by the hard grunts Magnar was making. Gritting his teeth, Leukos looked back inside at the rutting couple. His balls were tight, almost in his damned throat. They ached with need. His cock throbbed.
Leukos took another step forward as Magnar leaned down and kissed Claire, swallowing her moans with his mouth. His tongue swirling with hers. His hips kept moving in that same circular motion. A circle of the hips and in, circle and in. No faster. No harder. The only thing that became harder, more insistent were her cries and moans.
“Please,” she groaned as Magnar broke the kiss. “Oh god, please.” Her voice was laced with such need. It almost mirrored his own, Leukos realized. He was appalled at how turned on he was. Surely he should be angry? Pulling Magnar off his female? It didn’t make sense. Instead he found that he wanted to step closer. What he wanted to… He wasn’t sure what he wanted exactly. Only that he wanted to come. He burned with the need. It was Claire. His female. She did this to him. It had to be.
“Please…Magnar…oh…oh…” She was panting hard. Her voice strained.
The male pulled back, so that he could look down on Claire, his back bowing as he did. Magnar was frowning…hard. Leukos couldn’t imagine the level of willpower required to stay so controlled. To keep from pounding into her welcoming flesh so that they could both have relief, but he didn’t. A circle of the hips and in, circle and in. Even when sweat dripped off his brow. Even when every muscle strained. Circle and in, circle and in. Claire begged some more, both with words and with the sounds she was making.
“Do you…” Magnar was panting and grunting, “need more?”
“Yeees!” A groan. “More, please…oh!”
“Do you want me to fuck you hard, sweets?”
“God yes!” she groaned.
Then the male frowned. It was a different frown this time. Not one born from desperate need but rather… It was almost like Magnar felt him there. Maybe he had that prickling sensation of being watched. Maybe Leukos had made a noise. Who knew? Next thing, the other male was looking up and locking his gaze with Leukos. Blast! His eyes widened in surprise for a second. Leukos could hear his heart beating. He could hear his blood rushing through his veins for those long seconds. Magnar’s gaze drifted down. Leukos’ cock gave a twitch at that inopportune moment. Magnar smiled…a wicked grin that made Leukos angry. His blood felt like it might boil. It also made his prick even harder.
Bastard!
As much as Leukos wanted to turn and leave, he couldn’t. Like an idiot, he stood there rooted to the spot. His dick hard and throbbing. His balls tight and aching. His hands fisted in frustration and anger. It boiled and churned in him.
Magnar turned back to Claire, lifting her legs higher. Claire moaned deep, her eyes widening. “Okay…” grunt, “then.” Magnar’s thrusts went from slow and circular, to hard and punchy.
It was time to leave. Leukos shifted his weight from one foot to the other but couldn’t stop watching. As much as he wanted to, he couldn’t!
Claire switched from moaning and whimpering to crying out with each hard thrust. Magnar’s jeans slid further down, exposing his whole ass, which was flexing in time to his administrations. His grunts became deeper. His hands closed tighter on her legs. “So fucking amazing,” he groaned.
Claire gripped the bedsheets, her fingers white. Her booted legs bouncing on his back. “Oh…oh god…oh.” High-pitched. From the sounds she was making Leukos knew she was about to come. This was it!
Magnar knew it too because he all out fucked her, finally giving her what she needed to take her over the edge.
Leukos found himself gripping his cock to keep from shooting off like a juvenile. Only, his touch felt good. Claire groaned deep…it killed his last resolve. He fisted his cock once…twice as she began to scream, her orgasm wracking her body. Those heels digging into Magnar’s back. His ass pumping into her.
It was, however, Magnar going off the edge that finally finished him. The male waited for it. Leukos wasn’t sure how he could stand to be inside a female during her orgasm without coming. Her snatch would be ridiculously tight right then. Magnar did wait though, taking his time, ensuring that he had pulled every ounce of pleasure from her before pulling out. Leukos could hardly believe what he was seeing. The male pulled out. Magnar went up on his haunches between her splayed thighs. Her underwear was still skew, exposing her pink, glistening slit. The lace was wet. She painted the most arousing picture. Her tits encased in lace but completely exposed through the sheer fabric. The other male’s dick was wet with her juices. No condom. Magnar’s expression was intense. His eyes on Claire. Of course they were. He fisted his cock, making a sound Leukos himself had made on countless occasions. His movements went from rhythmic to jerky. He snarled, his face morphing as pleasure flooded him. His mouth fell open. His face slackened. His muscles bulged. Seed squirted onto Claire’s belly, onto her straining breasts. Her eyes were firmly on Magnar. Thank fur, or he would have been busted, dick in hand. Her eyes were hazy and at half-mast. Her bottom lip was between her teeth.
Leukos growled low as he came. It hadn’t taken much. A couple more tugs on his prick and he was done, his seed spurting onto the ground below. He didn’t hang around to bask in the afterglow of the endorphins that flooded his system.
Leukos shifted as he jumped from the ledge, shame and anger coursed through him. What the hell was that? What the hell!
Confusion was the next emotion. Then frustration and more anger, followed by fear. The two of them were good together. Better than good. They were great. His chest felt tight as he felt a screech rip from him.
* * *
Magnar fell to the side, breathing hard. He glanced at the door. The curtain swayed from side to side in an unnatural manner. He smiled through the hard pants, wiping his brow. That had felt next fucking level. Knowing that Leukos was watching had somehow cranked up his pleasure. The curtain finally stilled. Leukos had stayed to the end and Magnar wasn’t sure why he liked the idea so much.
Magnar’s smile widened. He’d heard something that sounded very much like a growl while he was coming. Had Leukos creamed as well? Judging by the erection the male had been sporting, he was sure he had. Magnar loved the idea. Now they were a little more even.
“What’s so funny?” Claire still looked out of it, her eyes were bleary.
“I was just thinking about the fun we’re going to have today.” He winked.
She giggled. “Oh, are we staying in bed?”
He chuckled. “You’d like that, wouldn’t you?”
She nodded. “I guess I would.”
He tilted his head. “Are you sure you don’t have any species blood in you? Humans are not normally this insatiable.”
“More sex, for sure, but we can talk as well. After I get cleaned up that is.” She pretended to be annoyed. Even made a cute little growl as she looked down at herself.
“My come looks good on you.”
She slapped his arm quite hard for a small human. “You’re a pig.”
“Ow!” He rubbed the spot. “You’re mean. We’ve had this conversation.”
“No really.” She turned serious. “We shouldn’t be having sex without a condom. I was on birth control before you abducted me but ended up missing a couple of pills, which means I can become pregnant.”
“With clutch,” he corrected, noting that he wasn’t appalled by the idea, like he normally would be. “You would become with clutch. I am a Feral. Not a human.”
She made this face. “Oh yeah! We would have three kids.” She shook her head. “I’m nowhere near ready for that.”
“Would it be so bad
?” he blurted. “Having a family?” He realized that his voice had softened.
“It’s too soon.” She rubbed her forehead. “It’s just that the last few days with Leukos have been great. Not just the sex, although that’s been great too.” Her cheeks turned pink and she looked away. “Oops! I shouldn’t talk about that. Not with you, at any rate.”
“You can talk to me about it. You can talk to me about anything.”
She narrowed her eyes. “Wouldn’t it be weird?” Then she laughed and shook her head. “I forgot ‒ you enjoy weird.”
“You know I do.” He leaned in and kissed her. “I want you back on birth control as soon as possible,” he murmured as he broke the kiss.
“I’ll be able to start taking my pills again soon.” She nodded. “I’ll have my menstruation in the next week or so, and I can start then.
“Good, because I want to be able to come inside you.”
He watched her throat work. “I kind of enjoy watching you finish. It’s sexy seeing you touch yourself like that.”
Magnar grinned. “My dirty little human.” He couldn’t help but wonder how she would feel watching Leukos jerk off while he rutted her and suspected she would enjoy it. He raised his brows. “What do you say we hit the shower?” He bobbed his brows. “A little water might be fun.”
“Leukos and I…” she pursed her lips.
“You had sex in the shower?”
She lowered her eyes. “In the bath. It was fun but messy, we ended up flooding the whole bathroom.”
Magnar smiled, his skin felt tight and not with anger. Anger and jealousy would be the expected reaction. Instead, he felt turned on all over again as blood rushed south. He stood up and hoisted Claire into his arms. She yelped when he gave her ass a slap.
If someone had told him a couple of days ago that he’d be on Leukos’ territory, talking about having a clutch with a beautiful human, he would have found it hilarious. It wasn’t though. This was serious. What the heck would he do if Claire chose him? Ekon hated him for what he would see as a betrayal. He didn’t have to talk to the male to know how he would feel about what had happened.
