Oceantide

  Una smiled sadly, “I can see that.”

  I was glad she didn’t seem upset by my admission that if I could change things, I would have never been sent to Shadow Isle. I would have never met and fallen in love with her. I was also happy she didn’t tell me what so many had tried to in the past. That it wasn’t my fault. Because it was. I had let my ego get the better of me, and I would never do it again.

  “Okay, so spill. Why do you ask?” I broke the silence as she stared at our joined hands.

  “I have just been thinking about the day on the beach. When all of this started for me. Wondering if I could change anything that day, would I?” Una looked between us. “I really don’t know the answer to that. I’m sure my sister would have just found some other way to have me sent away. But did I save all those people on the beach, only to give her the opportunity to do it even more? Or what if the people I saved went on to do terrible things themselves?”

  “You have no way of knowing that, and thinking back about what you could change will only drive you crazy. You did what you thought was right, you stood up against your sister to save lives. Una, you can never regret that, or she only continues to win,” I squeezed her hand gently.

  “Did that guy do something? The one you saved that day on the beach?” Jet asked.

  “I don’t know,” she shrugged. “That’s the problem. I was drawn to him in a way I wasn’t anyone else on the beach that day. There was something about him. When it happened, I wasn’t sure if it was because he was the only human semi conscious and I wanted to know why, or if there was something more. You know like, more. Then, seeing him here, brought it all back and I felt guilty for still feeling pulled to him for whatever reason. Especially considering the things I have learned about him. Today, I overheard Frost talking with him though, from the conversation they had it seems he was sent here to hurt me, but he refuses to.”

  I looked at Jet, both of us worried and pissed at the same time. “What do you mean, hurt you?” I asked.

  “I’m not really sure, but it didn’t sound good. I’m not worried about him following through with it, he made it clear to Frost he would rather stay in this hell hole than carry whatever it is out. So that's not my problem,” Una said meekly.

  “Okay, then what has you worried?” Jet ran his hand down her arm.

  “That even after everything, I’m still drawn to him,” she replied softly.

  I grinned, of course she would be concerned about that. “Do you want to be?” I asked.

  “I don’t know. That's the problem. I know I shouldn’t be. But I can’t help it.”

  I put my other hand over hers, “Take it from someone that has been there. Fighting feelings for someone that they can’t seem to help, no matter how hard they try. Whatever is meant to happen will happen. I mean he can’t be all that bad if he stood up to Frost, can he?”

  “Maybe before you make your mind up on him, you should give him a chance to explain. We all know, all too well, that people end up in here for the wrong reasons sometimes. Maybe he isn’t as bad as you think he is?” Jet said, surprising me. I knew him to be a bit jealous most of the time, but it seemed he was over it, instead more worried about Una’s feelings and state of mind. He had grown so much in the time I had known him, I was proud to call him my friend.

  “You’re both right,” she smiled. “Thanks.”

  “Always,” Jet winked at her. “Now that we have you alone,” he started, leaning over to draw her in for a kiss. She let out a small moan that had my dick twitching in response as I watched Jet deepen the kiss and take more. Slowly he drew away and she blinked up at him, those large brown eyes of hers full of desire.

  I turned her to face me and pressed my lips against her slightly swollen ones, kissing her long and languidly. I pulled back and nipped at her bottom lip, making her let out a gasp as my dick stiffened. Jet watched us, just as intently as I had watched them, the need in his own eyes clear.

  I reached between us and slowly unbuttoned her shirt, Jet moved in behind her and pulled it from her shoulders, she shuddered out a breath as he undid her bra and freed her breasts. He reached around and rolled a nipple between his fingers, making her arch back against him, exposing those breasts so beautifully.

  She let out a low moan as I leaned forward and took her other nipple in my mouth, sucking and laving it over with my tongue. Her head fell back against Jet's shoulder as he kissed her neck, tracking kisses up to her ear and continuing his attention at her other breast.

  I ran my hand across her stomach and over the fabric of her skirt, slowly sliding it up her thigh. She lifted her hips a little and I chuckled against her breast, she was an impatient thing, and I liked that she wanted it so much. I dipped my hands under the edge of her panties and found her core already hot and waiting as I ran a finger through her slick folds. Another impatient moan slipped through her lips just as I slid a finger in. Her pussy tightened around my finger as I thrust it in and out, building her pleasure, but not letting her climax yet.

  My hands tingled as I let my power hum through me, it was time to have some fun. I sent out little tendrils of water across her skin, caressing her and touching her everywhere we weren’t. Goosebumps raced along her skin from the contact as I added another finger and relentlessly continued driving my fingers inside her.

  I looked up as Jet nibbled on her ears and silently asked if he was ready. He grinned and nodded his head once, we had already talked about taking her like this so we both knew what was going to happen. Una had no clue, but she was going to enjoy every minute of it.

  Jet moved out from behind her and slowly I laid her back, channeling my water into thicker ropes. It circled around her wrists and her stomach trembled as she anticipated what was coming next. Jet traced his hands down her arms and took ahold of her hands, easing them above her head. As they reached the crates above her the water circled around the slats and tightened, holding her in place. I moved from between her legs and she stretched them out in front of her, until they bent over the edge of the crate. Little did she know, that was exactly what I was hoping for.

  I lifted her hips and pulled her skirt and underwear down quickly sending out more water to trail over her smooth skin, down her thighs, across her sweet pussy and to her ankles. It encircled her there before slowly pulling her legs apart, baring her beautiful pink pearl. Like I had done with her wrists, I secured them to the slats below her, pinning her in place as I stood and turned her over to Jet.

  He moved between her legs and kneeled on the floor next to the crate. I sat on one of the nearby seats and watched as he put his hand on her knee and slowly caressed her skin, inching his way toward her pussy. Before his hand could find her hot center he leaned over and took her in his mouth, making her writhe beneath him in pleasure.

  She bucked against the restraints as he teased her, licking and sucking until her hands balled into fists above her. Una arched her back, urging him to give her more as she let out a low moan. I undid my pants and my cock sprung free, aching as I watched him bring our girl pleasure.

  He slid a finger into her as he continued sucking her clit and she raised her hips up to meet him as he entered her. I stroked my cock in rhythm with his long, languid thrusts, each one bringing her closer and closer to the edge.

  My cock was throbbing with need as I watched the waves of her orgasm wash over her, Jet sucking her pussy, taking every bit of pleasure she would give.

  “For fucks sake, Jet,” Una laughed, her hips finally resting on the crate again.

  Jet stood and leaned over her, “We are not done yet.” He stripped off his pants, and I pulled mine the rest of the way off. I released the water that bound her and called it back to me. I stepped in front of her and held my hand out to help her stand.

  Her breasts brushed up against my chest and my dick twitched in response. I held her arm and pressed a heated kiss to her lips, my tongue tracing along the edges before deepening it until we were heady with desire. I took a step back
, pulling her with me as Jet sat in the spot she had vacated, his legs hanging off the same edge hers had, but his feet rested on the ground, having a good few inches more to his height than she did.

  I turned Una around to face him and she let out a small chuckle, “Well hello there.”

  “Hey yourself, sexy.” He took her hand and guided her back with him, laying when she straddled his lap. “Ready to try something new?”

  She nodded her head as she leaned down and kissed him, her ass in the air facing me. Jet reached between them and stroked his dick before guiding it toward her core. I stepped up behind them and ran a hand over her ass. She looked over her shoulder at me, a coy smile playing at her lips, the pleasure and desire radiating from her. In that moment she was the most beautiful creature I had ever seen.

  Una turned back around and lowered herself onto Jet’s waiting cock, letting out moan as he filled her. He gripped her waist, making her take it slow and deep as he thrust again and again. I pressed my thumb against the tight rim of her ass as slowly eased it in. She let out a gasp of pleasure, leaning back into it as she silently asked for more.

  I began to move my thumb in time with Jet, thrusting it into her again and again as I stroked my cock along with them. I slicked my hand over my dick, running the precum down my length, preparing myself for her. She let out a cry as her body trembled over his as she rode out her orgasm. Jet continued his long, hard strokes, pulling her closer to kiss her as she came down from her climax, quickly building another one.

  I removed my thumb and shifted forward to replace it with my dick. Jet could sense what I was doing, so he stopped his thrusts, holding her waist to keep her still as she tried to continue to ride him. Our girl was greedy, and we were about to give her it all.

  She felt my dick press against her and she looked back in surprise, “Both of you?”

  “If you want,” I grinned.

  “Oh, I so fucking want,” she said making us all laugh.

  I eased myself into her as she pressed back against me. I gripped her hips, struggling to remain still for a moment as the tight walls of her ass closing around me almost had me coming undone. The three of us remained motionless, each giving ourselves time to grow accustomed to the feel of us both filling her.

  Una was the first one to start moving, rising up on Jet’s dick as she took mine further into her before lowering and sliding her sweet ass back up my cock to take Jet deep again.

  “Fuck Una,” Jet breathed out my very thoughts. This woman was everything I never knew I needed and more.

  Driven by our desire we plunged into her, each losing ourselves as the pleasure built. Her body trembled around our cocks as she pumped her hips against us faster and faster. The feel of her ass around me, with the friction of Jets cock against it each time he pulled out and I pushed in, was unlike anything I had ever felt before.

  “More,” Una begged as my fingers dug into her hips and I drove into her relentlessly. My balls tightened as my body begged for release.

  “Cum for us, Una,” I demanded as she pushed herself back onto my cock and the waves of my orgasm washed over me. My dick jerked inside her as I thrust into her again. Jet followed behind me with each thrust, her body quivering around us, as the three of us cried out our pleasure together.

  We all came down from our climax, but stayed motionless, our breath coming out in small pants as we enjoyed the sensations that still raced through our systems.

  “Yup, I definitely like this kind of sandwich,” Una chuckled.

  I pulled out of her, and picked up her skirt. I straightened it and held it out for her to step into. After she straightened it, Jet lifted her shirt for her and she slipped her arms in, buttoning it as we got dressed ourselves. She picked up her bra and panties and slipped them beneath her shirt before crossing to me.

  She stood on her toes and gave me a long hot kiss that had my dick twitching again. Una turned to Jet and passionately kissed him too. “If you keep this up, we will all be late,” Jet laughed.

  “Can’t have that,” she wiggled her eyebrows before backing away to the door. “I’ll see you guys tomorrow, be careful.” She slipped out the door, quickly and shut us in.

  “Well fuck, that happened,” Jet said.

  “Yeah it did. And she loved every minute of it,” I replied, both of us grinning like a seal sunbathing.

  Chapter 25 - Una

  I headed to Chan’s office the next morning, hoping that he would have some news for us. I practically skipped on my way there, my body still humming from my night with Jet and Beck. Oh my gods they were amazing. I probably walked like I rode a seahorse all day, but it was well worth it.

  It was normal for my people to have more than one mate and I always knew I would end up with two or more. For us, it was just the way things were done. As happy as I was with the guys, and as amazing as they made me feel, I still felt like I was missing something. I hated it and felt guilty for knowing, yet being unable to bring myself to tell them. It wasn’t a physical kind of missing, gods know those two hit all the right spots, in all the right ways. I wanted both of them for life. It was more some other part of me that in my heart I felt a piece was missing.

  If Eva had asked me about the same thing for herself, I would have told her it was because she still had another mate out there, waiting to be found. That the heart knew how many mates one needed and wouldn’t be complete until everyone was together. I could give advice but I couldn’t take it for myself. I wished my best friend was here to talk it through with me, maybe then I might be able to make sense of it. Or maybe I just needed to stop being a stubborn eel and listen to what my heart was telling me.

  Beck had wiggled his way into my heart and I knew I loved him just as much as I loved Jet. I would die for either one of those men. At the same time I felt strangely attracted to Adar, even seeing him as a part of our group. It started a year ago when I saved him and I felt that undeniable pull towards him. There was just so much that he had done between then and now that I was struggling to see past.

  I could forgive him for what he did with the evil bitches, they had done what they were best at and tricked him. I still didn’t know what he was in here for and I was afraid that if I asked it would prove he was the asshole the whole thing with my sister made him out to be, or even worse it would be something as terrible as what my sister, Mira, had done. Not to mention, there was the whole ‘here to hurt me’ thing I had overheard.

  Honestly, I didn’t even know the reason he had turned so cold toward my sister and chose Mira instead, only that he had done it. Nor did I know why he was sent here to hurt me. It was something I would have to talk to him about even if we were just friends. I didn’t want it hanging over us any longer and the only way I would have the answers I needed would be to just ask.

  A part of me was a bit miffed that he still hadn’t mentioned any of it. Granted, he didn’t have to answer to me, we didn’t even really know each other. We also didn’t have time when locked in that stairwell, but now that we had cleared the air, so to speak, I wanted him to be the one to bring it up.

  The fact that he had been alone with me, with every opportunity to hurt me, but didn’t, showed there was more to him than I knew. Chan might be right, there might be more to his story than I originally thought. I’d give him a little more time before I ended up being the one that said something. In the meantime I would hope he wasn’t just thinking he didn’t have to say anything since he didn’t think I knew. No matter what he had done, I would be much more able to forgive him, if he actually owned up to what he had done.

  I arrived at Chan’s office and knocked softly on the door. He opened it with a grin and ushered me in. He sat behind his desk and held up a piece of paper with my name on it. Immediately I recognized the hand writing scrawled across it. “I’m guessing you’re here for this?” he chuckled as he held it out of my reach. This teasing Chan was not something I was used to.

  “Yes! What took so long?” I asked, impatient t
o hear any word from my friend.

  He gave me a resigned look as he handed it over, “We have an intricate system and it can take some time to get things in and out safely. I know everyone is anxious to get out, but we need to be careful.”

  I opened the letter and looked down at the words, not able to make any sense of them. I held it up, “What is this?”

  “Ah yes, you also won’t be able to decode her words. We changed our coding and it is even more complex now.

  “Of course you did,” I muttered, anxious to devour her words. “You can though, right?”

  “Certainly,” he took the note back and unfolded it.

  “Thanks,” I told him. “I’m grateful for everything you're risking by helping us. You don’t have to and yet you do.”

  He nodded his head in understanding, “You’re welcome Una. I am willing to risk everything for my Queen. She saved me and my brother, and I know she will help free the rest of my clan. She will be the perfect ruler, with her grace and heart of gold, mixed with the perfect amount of kicking ass.”

  “That’s my girl,” I laughed. “Now, can you decode it for me?” I asked anxiously, making him chuckle. It really was weird to see this version of Chan.

  Without hesitation he started to work on it, reading out the lines as he worked. “She is close to being able to control both of her powers equally and is growing stronger each day. Her mates believe she will be strong enough to go up against Frost very soon. The plan to break in and get you out is underway. Your friends are welcome and will have a home with them as long as needed. They are making the castle a safe haven for those who need it.” He paused for a moment, reading over the next part before speaking again.

  I let out a sigh of relief. Knowing that Shay and even Ryoko would be safe if she wanted to, was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. I knew from the last time it wasn’t going to be easy and it certainly would be dangerous, but it would be worth it to be free. I would give my life to get myself and everyone I cared about out of this hellhole.
