Love of A Dragon (Exalted Dragons Book 1)

by K. T. Stryker

  “Gavin promised to take care of you,” Oz said. “I’m sorry I wasn’t able to protect you, Isabel.” Tears began to flow from his eyes, and Isabel stared in shock at the angel; she had never expected to feel pity towards the strong, powerful man, but somehow the flood of tears trailing down his face, even without any accompanying sobs, were the saddest thing she had ever seen. How could any of the vampires have been able to stand continuing to torture him?

  “Go to him, Isabel,” Gavin told her firmly. “Make him feel good.” Even without the command, Isabel knew it would have been difficult for her to make herself hold back; but with the command from one of her makers, she found her feet moving even before she could consider the pathos of the image before her. Oz began to protest weakly, but Isabel’s new nature rose to the top of her mind, taking over.

  “Shhh,” she murmured to the angel, letting her hips relax as she took the last few steps towards him. “Don’t push me away, Oz. Let me help you.” She sank down to her knees in front of him and reached for his face. Isabel brought her lips to Oz’s and kissed him hungrily, tasting his lips and tongue. A new jolt of desire coursed through her veins as Oz began to deepen the kiss, his arms wrapping around her, drawing her close. In spite of the abuse the angel had taken, his body felt amazing as ever, pressed against hers, and Isabel felt the slickness along her labia increasing, her pussy starting to tighten in preparation for the angel.

  She broke away from his lips and dipped down to the angel’s neck, nipping and lapping at the skin there. Oz began to regain control of the situation, and his hands began to wander over her body, touching her through the fabric of her dress. Isabel could feel Gavin watching them, and some new sense she hadn’t had the chance to experience yet told her that her other maker’s arousal was increasing as Oz began to take over, slipping one hand up under the hem of her dress. “You’re starving,” Oz murmured. He sounded almost irritable, but as his fingers – by far warmer than Gavin’s – began to slide against her slick folds, Isabel felt the tension in his body that told her he was becoming more and more aroused.

  Oz stood unsteadily, lifting Isabel with him, and Isabel moaned as Oz’s hands found the zipper on her dress. “As glad as I am that I bought this for you,” Oz told her, tugging the zipper down, “It’s annoying as hell right now.” The fabric slid down over her skin with a whisper, and Isabel heard Gavin’s chuckle behind her.

  Oz pushed Isabel towards the bed, his eyes blazing in the room’s dimness. “Tell me right now what you want, Isabel,” he said firmly.

  “I want you both,” Isabel replied without hesitation. “I want you both to fuck me over and over again, every way you can think of. I want to taste your cock again, and feel you come inside my pussy, and then I want you to take me from behind while I suck Gavin off, and make you both come at the same time.” Oz half-smiled.

  “You work well, Gavin.” He barely glanced at the vampire before turning his attention back onto Isabel.

  “I’ve been keeping her on a diet,” Gavin explained. “I didn’t want her under anyone’s influence but ours.” Oz nodded absently and began to unbutton and unzip his jeans, hooking his thumbs in the waistband to tug them down over his hips. His cock sprung free of the confining material, and Isabel’s mouth watered. Almost before she could even think of what to do, she sat up on the bed and nearly lunged towards him, reaching for the erection and wrapping her fingers around it.

  “Definitely hungry,” Oz said, amusement rippling through his voice. Isabel looked up at his face as she began to stroke him. She thought Oz’s cock wasn’t quite as burning-hot as Gavin’s had been the times he had come to feed her, but it was larger, and she thought about the way that her body would adapt to him, according to Gavin. Him and Gavin at the same time… oh…. oh…. fuck… a hot-cold chill worked through her body with the image of both men taking her at once. She’d never in her life been in a threesome, and the idea of being penetrated by two men at once had never appealed to her, but she was so hungry that the thought of being trapped between the vampire and the angel, feeling them both inside of her body--filling her up, pushing against her tightness, hot and cold everywhere--was like seeing a three-course meal laid out on a table after spending a day not eating.

  Isabel brought the tip of Oz’s cock to her lips and closed her eyes, sucking and licking at the fluids that had begun to accumulate there. Oz’s fingers tangled in her hair and Isabel took more and more of him into her mouth eagerly, moaning at the taste and feel of him; hot, silken skin against her lips, sharp-sweet taste, the spongy quality of the tip – it was as if she had been waiting all day for Oz’s cock without knowing it. Oz groaned, his fingers tightening in her hair, tugging lightly. “I’d almost suspect ... that you’re enjoying watching this,” she heard Oz say; Isabel glanced up at Oz’s face as she took as much of him into her mouth as possible. She could feel the tip of him brushing against the top of her throat.

  “She’s a greedy little thing, isn’t she?” Isabel was so absorbed in pleasuring Oz with her mouth that she didn’t notice anything else. “Look up at Oz,” Gavin murmured. Isabel did as she was told, briefly disoriented as she struggled to keep moving and look at the angel at the same time. “Take your mouth off his cock and tell him how much you want his come inside you.” Isabel pulled back, breathless with desire and need, and Oz’s erection slid out of her mouth.

  “I’m starving for it,” she told the angel.

  “Beg him,” Gavin said firmly.

  “Please … please, Oz,” she murmured.

  Oz’s hands on her head brought her mouth back to his cock. “If you want it, you’ll have to work for it,” Oz told her, mimicking Gavin’s firm delivery. “Show me how much you want it.” Isabel went to work once more, taking as much of Oz’s erection into her mouth as she could, swirling her tongue around the sensitive flesh.

  “You do realize, don’t you, Oz, that we could do whatever we wanted to her like this,” Gavin said, from behind her.

  “I … fuck, Isabel ... I don’t have your proclivities,” Oz said.

  “A good little succubus like our girl here,” Gavin said, “can get off just from sucking a man off. She barely kept herself from fucking a trainer. Eager little thing. Think of what a catch she would be for the council.”

  “I’d rather not,” Oz said, before groaning as Isabel reached up to cup his warm testicles in her hand and began to carefully squeeze and rub them against the base of his shaft.

  “Izzy,” Gavin purred. “You’d just love it if you had both of us in you at the same time, wouldn’t you?” Isabel barely even registered the annoyance she normally felt at the hated nickname; the thought of taking both men at once spurred her to even greater effort, and she mumbled an affirmative with Oz’s cock still between her lips.

  All at once, Oz groaned, his hands tightening against her scalp, and Isabel felt the twitch of his cock, the telltale spasm through his balls as he came. She swallowed eagerly as hot, sticky-slick fluid flooded her mouth. Isabel’s mind went blank as she devoured the gush of come, hungry for as much as Oz could possibly give her. She worked him with lips and tongue and hand, almost milking his erection, until Oz let out a sound somewhere between pain and pleasure and relief, pulling back from her unsteadily.

  In an instant, his hands locked on her waist and he threw her down onto the bed. “My turn,” he said, his voice almost growling in her ear. He pinned her down on her stomach, slipping between her legs from behind. “Beg him to fuck you, Izzy,” Gavin commanded.

  “Please, please fuck me, Oz,” Isabel said, hearing the almost pathetic whimper in her own voice. She pushed her hips back, able to feel the burning heat of his erection against her skin; even without the command, it would have been easy to make her beg. She wanted to feel Oz inside of her almost more than she wanted to breathe, and the fact that he was still hard excited her more

  Oz thrust into her all at once, ignoring the convulsive tightness of her body as it flexed around him. “Want it harder?�
�

  “Yes!” Isabel lifted her hips and pushed back against him, scrabbling for a grip on the messy sheets of the bed, for some kind of leverage to give her the ability to take him deeper.

  “Look at me,” Gavin said. “Tell me how good his cock feels inside you.”

  “It feels … fuck! God ... god it feels so good,” Isabel said, looking at the vampire. Gavin’s gaze was riveted on the sight of Oz taking her, his hips pressed flush against her buttocks. All at once, the burning, thick heat of it slid out of her and Isabel groaned in frustration.

  “Do you want it in your ass, Isabel?” Her heart beat faster in her chest with a mixture of fear and need.

  “We … there’s no lube,” she said cautiously. Oz chuckled.

  “You don’t need it,” he told her. “But I take it you’ve never done that before.” Isabel shook her head. “Time enough for that, soon enough.” Isabel moaned as he thrust into her again, moving hard and fast along her inner walls.

  “She does seem greedy,” Oz said. Isabel wasn’t certain, but she thought the angel sounded better, stronger.

  Pleasure tingled and crackled through her veins, along her bones, and Isabel gave herself up to the sensation, panting and gasping for breath, moaning as Oz slammed into her, deeper and deeper.

  Oz groaned in pleasure, and Isabel bit the fabric of the bed sheets, moaning as a second – maybe even a third – orgasm began to rack her body, burning through her nervous system. Her climax intensified as she felt Oz’s body tense against her, and then again, as she felt the first gush of burning-hot fluids beginning to flood her. Isabel heard herself screaming with pleasure, the sound barely muffled by the sheets as she buried her face against the bed. Her mind went utterly blank as Oz’s climax peaked, and she sagged against the sheets, for the moment satisfied.

  Chapter Fifteen

  “Oh, look: she’s awake,” Gavin said. Isabel turned over on the bed and saw both men watching her. Oz looked almost as powerful as he had been when she first met him. “We have fifteen minutes to get both of you out of here. Otherwise we’re all fucked. And not in a good way.”

  “She’s naked, is that going to fly?” Oz had put his jeans back on and somewhere he had found a shirt. Isabel pulled herself up, looking at the two men.

  “Get dressed,” Gavin said, picking up her dress from the floor and tossing it to her. Isabel found herself pulling the dress over her head, zipping it up, before she could even think about it.

  “I’d like to know if there’s any way I can get out of this ‘obey any command your makers give you’ thing,” Isabel said, smoothing the fabric over her curves.

  “Not that either of us is aware of,” Oz said. “You’re sure this will work?”

  “My friends are where they need to be,” Gavin told the angel. “But they won’t be there long; the council will notice.” Gavin licked his lips, looking almost nervous, and Isabel wondered just what Gavin had planned. “It’ll be dawn by the time we get to the safe house.”

  “You have somewhere to stay?” Oz’s expression echoed Gavin’s concern.

  “There at the house,” Gavin said with a nod. “Okay.” He looked at Isabel. “Remember, you’re hungry, you’re a thoughtless succubus who has no idea that anything out of the ordinary is happening.” Isabel rolled her eyes but nodded, schooling her face into the appropriate expression.

  She watched as Gavin went through the same rigmarole with the door as he had before, blooding himself to unlock the inner door and then the outer panel. Oz gestured for her to precede him, and Gavin grabbed her by the hand, pulling her in his wake. Oz barely managed to get through the doors before they closed, and Isabel heard a low, seemingly subliminal trilling echoing through the corridor.

  She almost tripped over her feet as Gavin pulled her through the hallway. When it was obvious that she couldn’t keep up with his speed, Isabel gasped as Gavin lifted her off of her feet and into his arms, carrying her with apparently no effort.

  Everything became a blur as Gavin and Oz moved through the winding, twisting hallways, down the stairs, and onto the elevator. Isabel closed her eyes, the speed of their movements making her dizzy. “We’re almost there,” Oz murmured, almost too quietly for her to hear. Isabel opened her eyes again as Gavin came to a stop.

  “You’d better get under cover in the next thirty minutes,” someone was saying. “And you’d better have an ironclad excuse.”

  “Don’t worry about me, Kalima,” Gavin said. “Just get this fucking door open and you won’t have to think about me for at least a week.”

  Isabel felt a shudder and heard mechanical, lurching sounds all around her. Looking, she saw that what was opening wasn’t precisely a door; it looked like the access to a vault, with steel rods that went into the ceiling, a seal on the edges of a circular piece of metal bigger than she was. Horizontal bars also apparently held it in place when it was locked, as Isabel saw them retreating into the mechanism of the door as well. All in all, she thought, if she wanted to secure a house of some kind, she couldn’t think of anything better to choose.

  Gavin carried her out through the entry into the building, and Oz, his wings disappeared from wherever they’d emerged, fell into step with them. “Car,” Oz said briskly.

  “Right over there,” Gavin said, nodding. Gavin set her down on her feet and Isabel looked around while she had the few moments to do so; the building they had left looked more like a castle than a home or a prison of any kind. She supposed that she should have figured that out from the interior. The striking, gothic structure made Isabel wonder just how far she was from home.

  The car waiting for them was a nondescript sedan with deeply tinted windows, and the doors to the back opened with no apparent cause. Certainly, there was no one in the back seat as Isabel climbed in, Gavin giving her a slight push on the small of her back. Both angel and vampire climbed in on either side of her, and the doors closed with the same, seemingly automatic movement. The car pulled away from the curb in front of the vampires’ castle. Isabel looked up towards the front of the vehicle, only to see that there was some kind of solid metal or plastic wall – she wasn’t sure – between the compartments.

  “So,” Oz said, settling into the seat next to her. “Where are we going, Gavin?”

  “There’s a group,” Gavin explained. “Vampires, some of the shifters, even a few other super naturals, who want to stay mythological.”

  “How come I never heard about them?” Isabel looked at Gavin; the vampire smirked.

  “Even when ‘supes’ agree with angels, they don’t necessarily like them,” Gavin pointed out. Isabel carefully stood, moving to the other seat in the back of the car, which she figured was some kind of limo, to be able to look at both men without craning her head.

  “Whatever,” Oz said. “So they’re providing safety for us?”

  “A safe house, outside of town,” Gavin confirmed. “But we’re going to have to move on at nightfall.” The car began to pick up speed.

  “The vamps will be on us before we even get there,” Oz pointed out.

  “I’ve got people cleaning up behind us,” Gavin said with a shrug. “As far as anyone on the council will know, I took Isabel out here so I could give her some personal training.”

  “So you’ll have to bring her back?” Oz raised an eyebrow. “Not sure I like that idea.”

  “I’ll have to report back within a week,” Gavin said. He shrugged as if the risks of that were unimportant. “But bringing her to you, feeding her with you after she starved herself earlier, that will work to my advantage.” Gavin smirked. “You’re going to be dead, Oz.”

  “I am?” Oz looked torn between amusement and concern.

  “How … how were you able to get him out without anyone noticing?” Isabel had assumed that there were cameras in the corridors, watching eyes to go with the intense security.

  “That is what Kalima, Harold, and Olivia are going to take care of,” Gavin said. He smoothed his hair back from his face. “
There’s a record of the escape attempt, but it won’t be tied to me; it’ll look like Oz took advantage of a brief lapse in security for his chamber.”

  “So they’ll be tracking him,” Isabel said.

  “They will,” Gavin agreed. “Right up until evidence suggests that he’s been murdered.” Oz looked briefly stricken.

  “And how is it going to suggest that?” Isabel felt her stomach lurch at the look on the angel’s face.

  “I will be bringing his wings to the council,” Gavin said steadily. Isabel’s eyes widened.

  “What?!” she looked at Oz. “You’re willing to …”

  “They grow back,” Oz said. He smiled. “It’s one of the most painful things an angel can go through, but they grow back.”

  “Typically, the only time a vampire is able to get an angel’s wings to present to the council as evidence is when they’ve killed that angel,” Gavin explained. “As you might have noticed, angels and vampires don’t tend to cooperate. The idea that Oz would willingly give up his wings in order to fake his own death won’t occur to anyone.” Isabel considered that.
