Bran (Fae Shifters Book 2)
Page 6
“Good. Now, you can truly move on and find nothing but happiness. I want you to focus on your training so you are safe. When I get back to the Fae realm, I’ll take comfort in my wife’s arms.”
Bran lifted his wrist to Connor. “Drink, my old friend. You need energy and I’ve mated. I’m full of blood and sex energy.”
Josie noticed Connor was slightly pale and lines of tension surrounded his eyes and mouth. She thought he’d refuse but he nodded before putting Bran’s wrist against his lips. She was surprised he only held it there for a few seconds before pulling away and sealing the wound.
As if he sensed her question, Bran spoke to her, “I’m old and powerful, and I’m full of sex energy. It wouldn’t take much to restore what he lost. Now, let’s get you to the shifter camp.” He kissed her forehead as Connor moved back to the driver’s seat and backed out of the parking spot. Life had thrown her another curveball, only this time she thought maybe she could hit it out of the park.
Chapter Five
The walk through the woods felt cleansing. It seemed like the Earth and trees were pulling the remaining pain and sadness from Josie’s soul. The cabins were coming into view when Josie felt her heart rate speeding up. It almost felt like Christmas morning when she was a kid sneaking through the hallway to see what gifts Santa Claus had left under the tree. She had never been in the tribe’s camp before, but she felt drawn down an unseen path.
Without realizing she was doing it, she walked past first one cabin then another, heading to the large cabin near the back of the camp. Bran never said a word but held her hand and let her lead. She suddenly stopped and looked up at him, trying to read his expression, but he only smiled before he pulled her hand to his mouth. She raised her hand to place on his chest. Behind her, she felt a pull and turned to look at the cabin. Everything seemed to move in slow motion.
The door opened and a tall man moved to the porch. His long dark hair hung to his waist and swayed slightly as he walked outside. His naturally tan skin was enhanced by his tight yellow t-shirt that was tucked into light jeans and his feet were bare. Dark brown eyes moved from Bran to lock gazes with her. She clasped Bran’s wrist in her grasp as she moved toward the cabin, up the steps and to the man who waited. Michael had an amused expression until she raised her free hand to cup his face. Electricity flowed through her body and into Bran. She heard both men inhale deeply before she smiled. “Michael,” her voice husky, her lips near his. “Mate. Our mate.”
Michael’s eyes widened in shock as he took in her words. Bran moved closer to her, his chest brushing her back. She was surrounded by her men, and nothing felt more right. Her body began to tremble as emotions washed over her. She knew it wasn’t just Bran’s feelings for Michael that she was feeling. It was her own, and Michael’s as well. This was such a surprise but it felt like something she had waited on her entire life.
Michael’s gaze reluctantly left hers to look at Bran, and Josie felt a sizzle of arousal. “Bran.” Michael’s voice was deep as they touched each other. His eyes questioned but his body responded.
“Michael. This is Josie Davis. My true mate.” Josie heard the huskiness of Bran’s voice. “And apparently yours as well.” Josie heard Michael growl deep in his chest as his attention shifted back to her.
“I think we should take this inside.” Josie couldn’t have agreed more, but she didn’t think she could stand on her own, much less walk. Michael licked his full lips before backing toward the door. She kept her hands in contact with both men as she entered the cabin. She was too preoccupied with Michael to look at her surroundings.
“I’m a little jealous of you, Michael. It took me weeks to ask her out and hours to convince her she was my mate. You got it in seconds.” Bran sounded more amused than jealous.
“Maybe you opened her eyes to how mates work.” Michael hadn’t moved away from Josie or looked away from her since entering the cabin. “Are you sure we’re mates, Josie? You might be picking up on other”—he paused briefly—“feelings.”
“She knows about us, Michael. She felt my connection with you already, but you and I never had that electric between us. She does with me. And you.” Bran’s voice was deep and Josie could feel his hands rubbing the sides of her hips in slow circles.
“You’re my mate, Michael. I know it in my soul. I recognized it from my connection with Bran. I could no more walk away from you than I could from him.” Michael smiled as he cupped her face between his hands.
“Good, I’m glad you recognize our mate status. I felt you when you came through the barrier to my camp. That’s why I came outside. I felt you both. I can’t wait any longer.” He lowered his head, his lips brushing hers. “I’ve waited centuries to claim my true mate.” Bran growled behind her as Michael brought her in for a devastating kiss.
Josie could feel her body and soul rejoice. Michael’s tongue slowly explored her as she wrapped her arms around his neck to bring him closer. Bran pushed against her back, supporting her as her spirit acknowledged her mates.
Michael broke the kiss and stepped back from her, a smile on his face. “Josie Davis, I claim you as my mate.” He brought his mouth back to hers, lightly nipping her bottom lip before licking it to soothe the sting. She felt Bran back away from her. She stopped kissing Michael and turned concerned eyes to Bran. She didn’t want him to feel hurt by her connection with Michael.
“What are you doing? Don’t leave.” Panic laced her voice as he backed away. She was so afraid that she didn’t recognize the desire in his eyes.
“I’m not leaving, Josie, but to form your bond, Michael needs to claim you without my interaction. I’ll be right here with you though because I’m not missing this for anything. And you can bet when he’s claimed you, I will be joining you. Both.” The image of the three of them touching each other flashed through her mind and turned her bones to jelly. She heard her own moan as her heart pounded.
She caught movement from the corner of her eye and turned to see Michael pulling off his t-shirt. Her breath caught as she gazed at his body. Both of her mates were extremely fit with well-defined muscles. Bran had the thicker build, similar to a bodybuilder, but Michael had the lean body of a fighter. Both had those sexy washboard abs. She reached out and traced his chest and stomach with her fingertips, trailing down to the waistband of his jeans. She dipped her fingers in the gap between his body and his clothes. She encountered the top of his cock, wet with precome. He groaned as he fought with the button and zipper of his jeans.
“I’m so close already, Josie.” She dropped to her knees as she pushed his pants past his muscular thighs, exposing his erection. Apparently, Michael didn’t wear underwear. The thought made her smile. Without thought she wrapped her hand around the base of his cock and pulled the head into her mouth, sucking hard. She felt his fingers thread through her hair and massage her head. “Don’t stop. I’m going to come in your mouth. Just like that, baby. Fuck. Not long now.” She pumped his cock, squeezing it tightly as she moved her head in concert with her hand. His breathing was becoming more erratic while little growls of pleasure filled the air.
She brought her other hand to his balls, rubbing and squeezing them gently. Behind her, she heard Bran groan as she felt Michael’s cock growing thicker in her hand and the head expanding slightly. Michael’s hips jerked a second before she tasted his sweet essence on her tongue. He groaned her name as he pumped his hips, fucking her mouth. She heard Bran’s whispered curse behind her before he reached down and pulled her shirt from her body. She was forced to release Michael’s cock as her shirt was lifted over her head.
Michael reached down and grabbed her upper arms gently as he pulled her to stand. “The rest will happen in our bed.” He kicked off his pants as he reached between them and pushed her sweatpants and underwear down her body. Bran was behind her, helping to balance her as she stepped out of the last of her clothes. Once she was naked, Michael picked her up and carried her down a hallway to a large bedroom. Michael placed he
r on the bed and knelt on the floor, pushing her thighs wide. Bran stood in the doorway, shirtless, his eyes smoldering and following every move Michael made. His fangs were dropped low and his eyes were glowing.
“Now I get to taste my mate.” Without hesitation, Michael’s mouth dove straight to her pussy. His tongue dipped into her, swirling and filling her before his fingers parted her labia. He began to suck her clit hard, flitting his tongue over the sensitive bundle of nerves. Josie arched and fell back on the bed, her hands finding fistfuls of Michaels soft hair. He never let up on his assault as his fingers slid along her pussy, lightly touching her. The contrast of his light touches and his strong tongue sent Josie into her first screaming orgasm. Michael growled against her as he slid his finger inside her, pushing up.
Josie felt herself pulling on Michael’s hair. She didn’t know if she was pulling him toward her body or pushing him away. She released his hair as he stood. He licked his lips as he removed his finger from her body, sticking it in his mouth to suck it clean. He was breathing hard and fast as he bent over and latched on to one of her nipples. He moved so quickly she was shocked by the feel of his lips and tongue on her.
His hands slid under her body as he lifted her and moved her farther onto the bed. He popped off her nipple and brought his lips to hers. She tasted herself as he deepened the kiss. His legs moved between hers to spread her wide. In one movement he pushed his cock against her and entered her slowly. Josie heard Bran groan from the doorway as Michael seated himself inside her. He lay still as he brought his hands up to either side of her face. He stroked her cheeks with his thumbs.
“Josie,” his voice a whisper, “open your eyes and look at me, baby.”
She did as he commanded to gaze into Michael’s brown eyes. He started to move slowly, his long thick cock hit all the right spots inside her, making her moan.
“Josie. I claim you as my mate. Your pain will become my pain. Your pleasure will become my pleasure. Your happiness will be my goal.” He began to move faster. He briefly closed his eyes and placed his forehead against hers. He opened his eyes again before moaning. “I reclaim the part of my soul inside you and offer you yours so we may become joined once again.” Michael reached one hand to the end of the bed as he bent his knees to gain more leverage. He looked over and grabbed Bran’s hand, putting it between his and Josie’s. “Bran, I reclaim the part of my soul inside you and offer you yours so we may become joined once again. We are one soul.”
Josie felt the heat through their joined hands that spread through her body. Desire surrounded her, deeper than any orgasm she’d experienced. Pleasure shot from her pussy through her body, healing every pain she’d suffered in the past, filling the void she always felt. Michael slammed hard into her then pushed deep. His eyes closed as his body jerked. Warmth spread through her as he came deep inside her.
The room was filled with the heavy breathing of the three individuals who now were once again complete. Josie licked her dry lips and raised her hand to touch Michael then turned and looked at Bran. His eyes were glowing, his fangs were dropped and his cheeks were flushed in desire. He moved his hand from their joined hands and ran it down Michael’s back before using his other hand to brush the sweaty hair from Josie’s warm face.
“I’ve never gotten more pleasure from watching two people make love.” He leaned on the bed and kissed her forehead. Tears prickled behind her eyes. Even though it felt right to be with Michael, she was still afraid it would hurt Bran. Michael was kissing her cheek.
“Bran, I love you. I’m scared that my feelings for Michael have hurt you.” Both men pulled back to look at her.
“Oh, sweet girl, no.” He was still rubbing Michael’s back. “I love him too so I understand how you could. Besides, we aren’t human. We don’t think like that. We understand mates and true mates.” He cupped the back of Michael’s neck and drew him forward.
Josie’s body arched as their mouths met in a hot kiss. Her breath froze in her lungs. If Bran got half as turned on when she and Michael made love, as she was getting from seeing them kiss, she could understand why he wasn’t jealous. The men started to groan and Michael’s cock began to stiffen again inside her.
Bran pulled back, panting. He tucked Michael’s hair behind his ear. “It’s been too long since I’ve kissed you. I’ve missed you so much.” Michael pushed himself to his knees and pulled Bran closer to the bed, bringing him beside him and Josie.
“Come and join us, mate. We need you.” Bran smiled at Michael’s words as he leaned down, bringing his lips to Josie’s.
“I’m all yours. Both of yours. Forever.”
*****
Bran’s body was tight with desire. He’d tortured himself as Josie and Michael made love and fought the urge to stroke himself to completion. Now he wished he had. He wasn’t sure he’d last, no matter what was done to his cock. On top of that, he and Michael shared a kiss. He had spent centuries reliving their times together. They wanted to get back together, but so many things got in the way. He moaned as Michael slowly started to fuck Josie again.
“I’ll mark you publicly tonight, Josie. I’ll gather the entire tribe and announce that I’ve mated you then,” he ran his tongue over the side of her neck, scraping her skin with his teeth. “I’m going to sink my teeth into you and leave my mark on your skin.” Josie arched her back, he could hear her heart pounding in her chest. Her eyes opened as she licked her lips.
“I know you marked Bran and he marked you. How can I mark you both? I want to make you mine for everyone to see.”
Bran moaned as he thought of her teeth sinking into his skin. Michael must have felt the same. He groaned as his hips moved faster against their mate.
“You share a soul with two of the most magical beings on this planet. We can help with that.” Michael smiled as he looked up to Bran then trailed his gaze to Bran’s jeans. “You’re a little overdressed to help out here. Strip. Mate.”
Bran lay back on the bed and unbuttoned his jeans. He lifted his hips to push them off to his thighs. His cock sprang free, bouncing against his muscular stomach as he sat up to watch his mates. Michael stopped moving in Josie and licked his lips. Josie laughed as she saw where Michael’s gaze was drawn.
“He has that effect on me too.” Michael looked down at his female mate’s face and grinned. Bran laughed, feeling lighter and happier than he’d felt in recent memory.
“I think we both want the same thing,” she whispered in Michael’s ear. Bran saw desire flare in Michael’s eyes as he slowly pulled out of Josie and rose to his knees between her thighs.
“Lay down, Bran.” Michael’s voice was husky as his eyes stayed on Bran’s erection. Bran quaked in raw desire and laid on his back. His body felt like it was on a live wire, energy skimmed below his skin as Michael and Josie moved on either side of him. Josie smiled as she bent over and brought her lips to his. Her tongue traced his lips before she nipped his lower lip. He gasped when a warm masculine mouth sucked one of his nipples. He couldn’t stop the moan or his body arching. He was surrounded in the energy of his mates, and it was almost overwhelming. He thought he and Michael would be focusing on Josie the first time they were together.
“You stood by and put aside your needs to let me and Michael bond. You deserve this.” Josie’s voice barely penetrated his haze of lust.
Michael popped off his nipple. “And we’ll have years of being together, focusing on each other.” Michael’s tongue began to trace the skin at the juncture of his neck and shoulder, lightly sucking and nipping the skin. Josie moved down his body to suck the head of his cock into her mouth.
“Fuck.” The word was ripped from Bran as his mates worked his body. He reached out and slid his fingers into the hair of each of his mates and lightly began to rub their heads. Michael moved and pulled Bran’s cock up from his body. He let Josie kiss the head of his cock while he twisted her nipples, making her moan. “Jack me. I’m going to come.” Michael squeezed the base of his cock before m
oving his hand up and down his erection quickly. Bran’s fangs burst out of his gums, extending past his bottom lip. His body jerked in pure pleasure. His eyes closed as Josie sucked him deep, drinking him down. Michael’s wrist was pressed against his mouth. Without thought, Bran bit down, sucking hard, filling his mouth with rich, coppery essence of his first love.
Josie’s mouth left his body. Michael growled causing Bran to open his eyes and see Josie on her hands and knees sucking Michael’s cock. Bran licked the wound on Michael’s wrist and moved behind Josie and slid in her tight, wet slit. Without stopping he began to fuck her hard and fast. Michael leaned forward, pulled Bran in for a hot, wet, furious kiss. The room was filled with the sound of moans, heavy breathing and skin slapping against skin as Bran pounded into Josie. Bran broke the kiss and leaned down. With one hand, he strummed her clit hard and fast. Striking quickly, he bit into her neck. Bloodlust hit her hard as she screamed around Michael’s cock. All three gave in and let their climaxes overtake them.
Bran released the bite to Josie’s neck and licked the wound. He laid his forehead against Josie’s shoulder, panting hard as his body jerked in aftershocks of his orgasm. Bran tightened his hold on her body as he pulled them down to the bed. With both of his mates’ blood and their sex energy, Bran had never felt so powerful. Michael fell to his back on the bed and Josie threw her arm over Michael’s waist, letting him know she wanted him closer to her and Bran. He rolled over, facing them. He raised his hand and stroked the side of her face before kissing her forehead.
“My baby girl. I’m so amazed to finally be mated to you.” He looked up and smiled. “Mated to both of you. I can fully acknowledge us and what you mean to me, Bran.”
Josie moved to roll on her back so she could see both men. “I’m so glad that no one judges same-sex relationships in your cultures.”
Bran grinned as he looked down on his female mate. “We understand that love is the most positive energy created. Positive energy is a good thing. Our people see, feel and manipulate energy. That’s how we create magic. The more love, the more positive energy to bathe our senses. Everyone benefits when love is shared.”
