“Nothing.”
She tipped her head back to look at Burke’s face. Unlike Miko, Burke was smiling.
“I think he’s just sore because I’m not in handcuffs yet,” Burke said. “He expected Hadrian and the gang to be here.”
“Operative word -- yet,” Miko murmured.
“Come on, boys. I might’ve been dreaming, but I was hoping we could all make nice.” She gave Burke another squeeze around the waist then released him and turned to Miko. “I know what you’re worried about, but I promise, Burke’s innocent.”
Miko crossed two thick arms over his chest. The black shirt he was wearing now stretched taut over his muscles. Yummy! Her body decided it was party time, despite the serious subject matter of their discussion. “Doesn’t matter. He’s a convicted felon --”
“The so-called trial was a sham!” Burke barked back. “My court-appointed lawyer didn’t know what the hell he was doing. Did he even graduate from law school, I wonder? Or did he buy a degree from www.degreesforsale.com?”
Miko shrugged. “I don’t hire them.”
Sylvie, who was so ready to jump both their bones, heaved the sigh of a woman who’d had enough testosterone. There was only one thing on her mind at the moment, and it had nothing to do with playing referee to bickering boys. The need to have them both naked and on top of her was almost beyond bearable.
Didn’t they feel the same thing? That same desperate urge?
She glanced into Burke’s eyes. Oh yes, he was feeling it. The holdout was Miko, no doubt because of his guilt.
A sassy thought whipped through her mind and she instantly reacted to it. This might be her only chance to have both Masters in the same room, especially if Miko continued to refuse to help Burke.
The agony of being apart from them would be eased, if only temporarily, if she could distract them from their differences for a little while. She was quite certain there was one way to would accomplish that. The average red-blooded American male forgot most everything when he was toe-to-toe with a naked woman. Why wouldn’t two red-blooded vampires?
It was worth a try.
While Miko continued grumbling and Burke lobbed smart comebacks, she stripped nude. As she slowly peeled away one piece of clothing after another, the fire in their voices faded and the flames in their eyes flared.
Oh yes, it was working!
Both vampires were standing wide-eyed and gape-mouthed by the time she’d shed the last piece of clothing. Neither of them seemed to possess the mental capacity required to string together a sentence at the moment.
It was all good.
The two men looked at each other, seeming to be doing that male sizing-the-other-guy-up thing. The tension in the room was thick as liquid concrete. Sylvie stood her ground and waited.
“If we complete the Iugum, we’re all fucked if you’re executed,” Miko said, as he pulled off his shirt.
“I know.” Burke followed suit, kicking off his shoes and shucking his pullover. “This is why you have to help me. I’m innocent.”
Miko was standing there, looking perplexed, his hands at the front snap of his pants.
Sylvie couldn’t help noticing they weren’t using magic to undress. Why?
Burke mirrored Miko’s pose. “You and I both know there’s no way we’re going to leave here without completing the Iugum. Look at her! Just look!” Burke motioned toward Sylvie, whose face heated at the wild expression on his face.
Oh, who cared why? She dropped to her knees and lowered her head. “My Masters.” She almost giggled when one of them growled.
“You did this on purpose.”
It sure sounded like Miko’s anger was losing steam.
“No… okay, maybe. But who could blame me? I couldn’t fucking stand it anymore. I’d been away from her for too long. I was going nuts. Literally. But I’m innocent. I swear it. We’ll complete the Iugum and then we’ll find the real killer. You and me. Together. And you’ll be a hero when it’s all over, for finding the real killer and taking him down.”
She trembled as she waited, her gaze on the floor. Her entire body was shaking with the anticipation of what was to come. She didn’t know exactly what to expect. It wasn’t every day that a girl did the We-gum or whatever it was called with two absolutely scrumptious, handsome, thoughtful, strong and sexy vampires. Considering everything, she figured it was bound to be mind-blowing.
There was a long, drawn out moment of silence and she guessed Burke and Miko were giving each other another stare. She lifted her eyes to check.
Burke turned a second later and still half-dressed strode toward her. He stopped directly in front of her, effectively blocking her view of Miko. “You haven’t had her and then lost her like I have. You don’t know what it’s like.” He palmed her cheek and snapped his fingers. Once again, the room’s furnishings changed. The bookshelves and comfy couches were gone and in their place were the assorted wooden bondage structures. “You are my life,” he said, reaching down and palming her cheek. He took one of her hands in his and pulled her to her feet while tracing her lips with his thumb. “I had no idea how hard it would be to stay away. How excruciating. I need you, Sylvie. I must have you.”
She smiled and nodded, grateful for his gentle touch and the warmth she found in his eyes. “I want to be with you and Miko. Together. For always. It’s been so difficult.”
He pulled her into a tight embrace. One of his hands rested on her head while the other pressed on her lower back. She smiled, inhaling the scent she’d missed so much over the past few nights -- of Burke, of man and passion and crisp night air -- and wrapped her arms around his waist. Even with her eyes closed, she sensed Miko approaching. He was behind her now. Her spine tightened as little pleasant tingles raced up and down.
Miko kissed a path down the center of her back then gripped her buttocks in his hands. While she shuddered against Burke, at Miko’s touch, she tipped her head up to beg for a kiss. Burke obliged without her having to ask. He slanted his mouth over hers and gave her a slow, sensual kiss that left her breathless and dizzy and aching for more.
Miko’s touch became more bold. His fingers slid between her buttocks and teased her anus, her pussy. Slick juices pulsed from her vagina, coating the insides of her thighs. Her knees turned to molten marshmallow. She started sinking, relying entirely on Miko and Burke to keep her from landing on the floor like a dropped sack of flour.
Burke swept her into his arms and carried her to a wooden table. He lowered her to the flat top, polished to a gloss. A set of four cuffs hung from long chains suspended from the ceiling.
With their help, she settled on her back. Burke kissed the breath right out of her then lifted her arms and secured them up high, over her head. As he stood beside her, Miko eased her knees apart. She could see the hunger on his face, in his eyes, as he looked down at her.
She was quite certain her heart was going to explode. Or plain stop working. One or the other.
Her head was spinning but she didn’t want to close her eyes. Watching Miko and Burke move, their muscles ripple and bulge as they lifted their arms. It was mesmerizing.
Huge, happy sigh.
Miko lifted her ankles and pushed her feet back, forcing her to bend her knees. Now her pussy was open and fully exposed to him, and she couldn’t be happier. Being the gentleman he was, Burke decided this was a good time to produce a vibrator and use it to tease her nipples. Little zaps shot through her body. Heat gathered between her legs. Tension coiled in her belly. She quivered and moaned.
“You don’t know what you’re asking us to do,” Miko said, teasing her slit with a fingertip.
It wasn’t easy, but she responded. “Yes. I do.”
Miko took his hand away and she whimpered. “No, you really don’t understand. To complete the Iugum would mean to bind us together. You will live as long as we do, but should any of us be killed -- executed -- the others will die too.”
Despite the fog of desire clouding her judgment, she r
ecognized how serious this Binding stuff was. She knew she had no business making a decision this weighty while tied up and on the verge of ecstasy, but the illogical part of her -- which happened to possess firm control of her at the moment -- demanded she complete the Binding as soon as possible.
A few years ago, she’d had meningitis. The pain in her head had been so horrific she’d begged the doctors to make the pain go away. Every second of pounding pain was like a lifetime of agony.
This was no different. With two of them there, together, the misery was amplified. The blood in her veins felt like acid. Her skin felt like it was on fire. She needed them to make it go away. She wanted to feel normal again. She wanted to be happy. She wanted to be happy with Miko and Burke. And she wanted to make them happy.
“I can’t stand this anymore. Make it stop,” she begged. She lifted her head and looked at Miko. “Please.” When his gaze moved to the left, she turned her head to Burke. “I know I don’t fully comprehend what this means, but I know I need to finish it. I need to be with you and Miko.”
Burke nodded and stroked her cheek. Then he unfastened her wrists and together they walked to a low, narrow bench. He pushed her onto her knees and while she knelt before them, the two vampires undressed completely.
They were both gloriously built, their bodies like fine marble statues sculpted by the greatest master of all time. She was in awe of the fact that they would be hers, and only hers, forever. And she would be theirs.
What had she done to deserve such a wonderful gift?
Miko sat on the bench. His cock was erect, thick and long and hard. Her pussy throbbed at the thought that it would soon be buried deep inside her.
Burke, who stood beside her, handed her a tube of lubricating jelly and pointed at Miko.
She knew what he expected her to do. Still on her knees, she scooted closer. Then, with Burke behind her whispering sweet words of encouragement in her ear, she flipped the top off the lube, squeezed some of the cool jelly into her hand and closed her fingers around Miko’s cock.
Miko audibly inhaled when she slid her hand down to the base and back up again, and Burke murmured, “That’s it, baby. Oh yes.”
Miko’s face was flushing a deep crimson and his stomach muscles were tight, forming defined planes, cut horizontally by two lines and vertically straight down the middle. She’d always had an appreciation for the sight of a well-defined stomach. Miko’s was as near to perfect as they came. Burke’s was nearly as scrumptious.
Just because she had to, she stood up and traced the line of hair running from his bellybutton down to his cock. That was one of the sexiest parts of a man, that and his upper back. She had to swallow several times, the drool was coming fast and furious.
As she bent over, Burke caught her hips in his hands and started kissing her bottom. That inspired her to stay put right were she was and perhaps have some more fun with Miko’s to-die-for bod. She continued pumping her hand up and down his cock while kissing and nibbling her way around the territory surrounding his genitals, upper legs, stomach. His skin was slightly salty but it smelled sweet. The combination of taste and scent, along with the tickly kisses Burke was planting all over her ass and lower back were enough to make her shiver with delight.
“In order to complete the Iugum, you must take us both at the same time,” Burke murmured.
Two men at the same time? Was that even possible? She shuddered. Did that mean one of them would have to fuck her in the ass?
“We must both be inside you when we bite.” Miko’s eyelids lifted. His eyes shone with a strange golden glow, like a cat’s that had been struck with a flashlight beam. “We are nearly ready for you now.” He reached out and grabbed her shoulders.
Burke pushed her from behind, forcing her to turn to the side. “The lube.”
She handed the tube of jelly to him and watched, mesmerized, as Burke dispensed some into her other hand. He pressed his palm against the back of her hand and he didn’t remove it when she replaced her one hand with the other. His fingers twined between hers as she glided it up and down to spread the lube.
Miko visibly quivered. He dropped his head back, letting it rest against the wall behind him.
“Yes, love. That’s it.” Burke released her hand and guided her to turn to face him. His gaze locked with hers, he nodded. “Take him in your ass. All the way in.”
The breath she’d been about to inhale lodged itself in her throat. She was really going to do this? Take two men at once?
Ohmygod!
She looked over her shoulder and reached behind her to hold Miko’s cock. Then she shuffled backward, her legs wide, straddling Miko’s legs and the bench, and positioned herself over his cock. It pressed at her perineum, and the skin burned fiercely, but she found comfort and encouragement in Burke’s eyes. He held her at the waist and helped hold her weight as she slowly, painstakingly lowered herself a fraction of an inch at a time.
Miko’s cock filled her ass and then some. A flash of liquid heat coursed through her body when she’d taken him in entirely, and she cried out. She needed Burke’s cock.
Miko wrapped his arms around her and pulled until her back was resting against his chest. While she lay there, waiting and in sweet agony, he slowly rocked his hips. His cock moved inside her and she nearly came. The promise of ecstasy lingered just out of her reach.
“This is it, love. You’ll have what you’ve ached for all this time. Your suffering will be over.” Burke lifted her knees and positioned his cock at her vagina.
Miko pinched and pulled at her nipples, sending torrents of pleasure pain pulsing through her body.
“Please,” she begged, her body about to go up in flames. “Now, Burke. Now!”
He smiled and slowly pushed his cock inside her.
“Oooohhhhh!”
The sensations were beyond words. The fullness in her ass and pussy, the crazy currents of energy charging through her system like bolts of electricity. The way everything seemed so much more intense -- touches were almost painful, sounds nearly loud enough to bust her eardrums, her vision crystal clear, despite the dim lighting.
Burke withdrew his penis and then thrust deep inside again, and Miko growled beneath her, his voice seeming to express what she felt. Her eyelids were too heavy to hold up and her eyes were blurry with tears. She closed them and let her head fall back onto Miko’s shoulder. All she wanted to do was feel, to let the incredible sensations they were stirring in her body carry her far away.
They were both moving inside her now, and oh the joy! Burke stroked her clit, round and round, drawing slow circles over her sensitive flesh. Miko pinched and tugged at her nipples. Their cocks worked in unison, driving slowly in and out of her body until she was on the verge of climax.
She cried out. The sound was nearly deafening. The soles of her feet cramped as she climaxed. Her pussy and ass contracted around Miko and Burke’s cocks in a swift rhythmic spasm.
Then she felt it, the sharp pain of their bites. But instead of stealing her pleasure, it increased it. She reached out blindly, grabbed Burke and dug her nails into his skin. Wave upon wave of wild erotic heat charged through her body like blasts from a blow torch. Still spasming from her climax, she trembled and clung to Burke, wishing the sensations would never ease, yet knowing she’d die if they didn’t.
This was beyond anything she’d ever imagined. It was beyond comprehension. Beyond words. Beyond thought. It was both beautiful and horrifying at the same time. Erotic and terrifying.
When they stopped sucking, it all stopped. The pulsing heat. The spasms of her climax. She felt exhausted and shaky and muddle-headed. It took Herculean effort, but she managed to drag her eyelids up so she could look at Burke.
He was still inside her, but he’d stopped moving. He was gazing down at her with the sweetest, most peaceful expression.
She felt very much the same -- content. At last. Sated. At peace. Yes, she’d done the right thing.
He slowly withdrew
from her before helping her off of Miko.
She was barely able to stand. Her knees were softer than ice cream left outside on a July afternoon. She stumbled, catching herself before she fell.
Miko cradled her to him, and with Burke beside her, he walked back to the bedroom and laid her down on the bed. And then, as she lay on her back, her body relaxing and her mind still, the two men settled on either side of her.
She was complete at last. Complete and content.
She hoped this feeling would last forever.
* * *
It was nearly finished. There was one more step to the Iugum and then Sylvie would be a fully bound Origo.
He would have to be patient a little longer. It was getting more and more difficult to wait, but some things couldn’t be rushed. Soon he would have his love. Soon.
Making sure to remain in the shadows, he watched and waited.
Chapter Thirteen
Sylvie Durand woke up as the meat in a hunky, alpha vampire sandwich. She was still tingly, giddy and weak from their earlier lovemaking. A happy little tremble shook her body at the memory. She’d had two men at once. Two! Who would’ve ever thought it? Certainly not her.
To think it had all started just a few nights ago, after a man was murdered in her bar, Carpe Nocturne. Immediately after discovering the poor guy in her office, his blood drained from his body, she’d learned vampires were real -- gasp!
The shocking discoveries didn’t end there. Next, she’d discovered she was some kind of mate (an Origo) to a pair of vampires -- another gasp! Burke Langton was a vampire on the run from the law for a series of brutal murders he didn’t commit. And Miko Dvorak was an officer with a super-secret vampire police force.
And finally, she’d fairly quickly discovered that her libido had a mind of its own whenever her hunky vampires entered the room. Her body insisted she complete this bizarre Binding ritual -- called the Iugum -- that involved making love to both her vampire Masters at the same time. Last night, she buckled to the agony, which had taken the form of this awful pounding, burning pain that felt like a full-body toothache.
