“Find him and contact Conley. I want all the covens on the lookout for him. Put the house on lockdown. His accomplice will be missing with him most likely, but have your men question the others here. Post two guards on Shem and Diets at all times. I’m not taking any risks with their safety.”
“Someone needs to let Cass know as well,” I said.
“Who’s Mel?” Diets asked after swallowing down his pill. “And why do we need guards?”
I quickly filled our mate in while Curtis made some calls and talked to Cass. By the time I was done, I was really tired of all this crap Curtis had to go through because of his asshole brother.
“So why come after us?”
“Because being mated ties us together, we can feel each other’s emotions since we’ve all mated. For vampires, it’s different. Our life lines intermingle. You’re immortal now, and if one of us dies, Curtis will most likely as well.”
“Well, good thing I’ll be living here with you guys so we can watch after each other,” Diets drawled. I gasped in shock at what he was saying. “That is if I’m welcome to move in with my mates?”
That was also the first time he admitted we were mates. Instead of giving him a verbal answer, I threw back the covers and moved between his legs. He still had on the hospital gown, so it was easy to get at what I wanted. I leaned down and licked his cock as it started to fill.
“I take that as a yes.” He chuckled as I licked him like a popsicle. “Why now, angel? You said you wanted to wait for oral.”
“Because you’re really committed to us now. You said you’d move in and called us your mates. If there was ever something that deserved a blow job, I would say it was that.” I swallowed down the head of his cock as I cupped his balls.
“Sweet hell, Shem!” Curtis growled. “Everyone out, now.”
I’d forgotten that Mitchell and a few others had joined us. Whoops!
“Go slow, angel. It’s your first time, just play,” Diets cooed as he ran his fingers through my hair. I was way past just playing with the lust I had for my mate right then. I swallowed him down until my nose hit his skin. “Fuck me! Curtis, our angel has no gag reflex.”
“Well, he’s getting spanked for that display now that everyone’s gone.” I pulled off Diets’s cock with a loud pop.
“He said he’d move in with us and called us his mates. What was I supposed to do?”
“Clear the room before you sucked our mate off,” Curtis answered with a moan. “That’s a beautiful fucking sight, baby.”
I was too busy playing with my new toy to do more than grunt. So instead, I wiggled my ass in his direction as a blatant invite.
“Are you okay if I join in on the fun, Diets? I think our angel wants to be fucked while he sucks you,” Curtis asked hesitantly.
“Oh yeah, get in on this, love,” Diets moaned and spread his legs to give me more room to play. “I want to watch that big cock of yours pound his sweet ass.”
I purred my appreciation at their decision as I sucked on Diets harder. I really liked giving head. It was amazing the rush it gave me knowing I was bringing my mate that much pleasure.
“Squeeze my sac, angel,” Diets ordered, and I did as he asked. Curtis tore my jeans he was in such a rush to get to me. “Does he always go commando?”
“He says it’s one less thing for him to try and find.” Curtis chuckled as slicked fingers rubbed my hole. “I think he just does it to drive me insane because I always know he’s free balling it.”
I smiled around Diets’s cock. My mate was totally right. I loved that he went nuts knowing all he had to do was unzip my jeans to get at me.
“Shem told me he’d like to play with toys, that you guys haven’t done that yet.”
“No, when I asked, he said we should wait for the three of us to be together,” Curtis replied as he slid in another finger. Diets hissed in pain as he started to thrust into my mouth.
“Don’t. They had to pop your leg back in the socket. You’re not all better yet, big guy,” I said gently as I moved off of his cock and kissed his hips. “Let me take care of you tonight, and as soon as you’re better you can go back to being in charge.”
“Thank you, angel. You’re so good to me.”
“I try,” I moaned as Curtis pulled his fingers out and then lined up the head of his cock. “Do it hard, big guy.”
“As you want, baby,” he growled as I sucked Diets back down. He thrust into me hard, bottoming out in one shout.
“That’s a pretty sight,” Diets whispered as Curtis impaled me with his cock. “Angel, I’m close.”
I purred at the idea of his blowing in my mouth. Why did the idea of swallowing his cum turn me on so much? I didn’t know, but I’d wonder about that later. Right now, I doubled my efforts, deep throating him since that’s what he seemed to like best. I was proud of myself for being able to take him all in, especially my first time. My lips were stretched so tight around his girth that I was worried I’d split them.
“Coming,” Diets grunted, and his cock exploded. I pulled back so I didn’t choke and was able to swallow most of his seed down with only a little dribbling out of my mouth. Damn! Even his cum tasted like heaven to me. The sight must have flat out done it for Curtis because he started slamming into me so hard I had to hold on to Diets’s thighs tightly to stay upright.
“So good,” I purred when Diets was done coming, and I was licking him clean.
“I was thinking the same thing,” Diets gasped as Curtis reached down and started stroking my cock.
“Drink from me, big guy,” I whimpered. I heard Diets groan as Curtis licked the side of my neck. I was so excited about what was coming, I climaxed with a yell. He sank his fangs in me, tailspinning my orgasm. It lasted for what seemed like forever, and Curtis came just as hard. He roared out as he filled my ass with his seed. I couldn’t help but wonder if he tasted as good as Diets did.
“That was the best housewarming gift ever.” Diets chuckled as Curtis pulled out of me and went to the bathroom. I was still trying to catch my breath when he returned with a warm washcloth and cleaned me up. Then we crawled up to lay on either side of Diets.
There was another knock on the door that once again interrupted us.
“Come in,” Curtis said loudly after he covered us with the blanket.
“We found a note in Aaron’s room,” Mitchell said as he entered. “He’s the only one missing.”
“Aaron, really?” Curtis asked, and I could feel his pain along with hearing it in his voice. “He and I grew up together. I’ve always considered him a close friend.”
“I’m sorry, Curtis. Maybe the answers will be in that letter,” Mitchell replied gently, and I heard the rustle of paper. Everyone was quiet for a few moments until Curtis started cussing up a storm.
“What does it say, big guy?” I asked softly when he settled down.
“Dear Curtis, I’m so sorry for what I’ve done and am about to do,” he read to us. “I hope you find this in enough time to send help. I didn’t want to let Mel out. You have to know that. I hated Harold. But when I pissed Harold off by helping kidnap Kody, he took my boyfriend and left him with some Hunters. They said they’d kill Logan if I didn’t get Mel free. I demanded to go with him, though. I have my cell on and GPS enabled.
“I don’t know if they will let me keep it, but that’s all I could think of to do. Please, Curtis, I know you have no reason to trust me after what I’ve done, but I hope you do and send men after us. Maybe at least we can find the Hunters’ headquarters and kill them all. Otherwise, I’m pretty sure I’m signing my own death sentence going to them. I’m about to sneak him out while everyone’s distracted with bringing home your mate from the hospital.
“Please help us, Aaron,” Curtis sighed at the end. I could almost hear the wheels turning in his head as his determination swam over me. “Do it. Send men and call Conley. He’s got choppers that can get his guards to catch up. I trust Aaron. He wouldn’t hurt me or my mates. I know
Harold hated him, and this explains a lot. Track his phone and follow them at a distance as long as you can.”
“I’ll see to it right away,” Mitchell said with a nod and left.
“It’s never going to be boring around you guys, is it?” Diets asked softly after a few minutes. “And what are Hunters?”
“Hunters are humans that know of us and want us all dead,” I answered before I got too choked up with emotions to talk.
“Holy shit,” Diets gasped as he pulled me closer to him and wrapped me in his big arms. “I can feel your grief as strongly as if it was my own. What happened, angel?”
“Remember we told you that my brother Harold was a horrible man who helped kidnap our friend Kody?” Curtis asked, and Diets must have nodded because he went on. “He was working with some Hunters that wanted Shem and his brothers for their freak show circus. As much as they want us dead, they’re willing to work with some of us to achieve their goals. And they have these traveling circuses to help fund their operation. Most of the time they just kill us.”
“Your parents,” Diets said softly, filling in the blanks. I nodded against his massive chest as tears fell silently.
“Yeah, they died to protect the Cowell children and give them time to escape when they swarmed their house,” Curtis replied. He reached over to rub my back in a sign of comfort. “A coven in Casper found them on the run and gave them sanctuary before Conley got involved. Then when they rescued Kody, they realized that their operation was compromised and killed off a lot of the shifters in their capture before they could be rescued.”
“It’s how our friend Avery and his mates got their daughters,” I said as I wiped my eyes. “Conley’s men found the cubs amongst the survivors. It was the same circus that had taken Avery when he was younger and tortured him all those year. He knew the cubs’ parents. So he thought they were the best to adopt them.”
“I’m so sorry, my angel cheetah,” Diets whispered and kissed my temple. It was the first time he used Curtis’ pet name for me, and it warmed my heart because it meant he accepted the fact that I was part cat. “They must have been great people to give their lives to save you and your brothers.”
“Yeah, they were. My moms and dad were the most selfless, loving people you’d ever meet in your life.”
“I see that’s where you get it from,” he said gently.
“I’ll do everything in my power to do whatever I can to stop Mel and the rest of them, angel.”
“I know you will, big guy,” I replied, giving Curtis a smile. “We need to tell the others in the morning. And Cass can call my sisters, too. Or actually, I might. I’ve not talked to them since we met Diets. I’m sure they’d like to know their baby brother has both his wonderful mates.”
“How many kids did your parents have?” Diets chuckled.
“I have nine brothers and three sisters,” I answered as Curtis moved around the bed to lie at my back. It felt so right to be snuggled in between the two of them. “My mom Maureen had my sisters and my litter, while my other mom Jan had my older brothers’ litter. At least there were the two of them with my dad Francis to help.”
“How much older are your sisters?”
“They are twenty-eight and working over in England while getting their doctorates. We all work in various fields, though closely related. The three of them all do the same thing, genetics.”
“Smart family,” Diets said and then hissed when he moved. “It might be time to let the drugs work their magic. I don’t mean to cut you off, angel, but after the awesome blow job you gave me I’m finding I’m out of energy.”
“Did you really like it, or do you just have to say that?” I asked after a moment.
“Best blow job I’ve ever gotten in my life, Shem. I wouldn’t lie or exaggerate on that.”
“Yea me,” I sighed as I reached back and took Curtis’ hand. I moved it so his arms surrounded me and lay on Diets’s hip. “This is what I’ve always dreamed of. Who knew I’d be so lucky to find my mates at twenty-one and they’d be the most perfect men?”
“And here I was thinking how grateful I was that I found both of you,” Diets answered and kissed me. Then I felt him move to kiss our mate as well. “I love you both. Thank you for being patient with me and giving me the time I needed to come to terms with your world.”
“Thank you for wanting to,” Curtis replied, and I nodded. It took an amazing man to not just run when things got hard. Plus, he was embracing a whole new world by loving and living with us. But our family wouldn’t have been complete without him. And I would be forever grateful he gave us the chance.
Chapter 9
Diets was feeling better the next morning, but Curtis and I weren’t taking any chances. We spent most of the day spoiling him rotten. I sat with him and listened to old movies in his arms while he watched them. Curtis was hopping from meeting to meeting with everything going on but would join us for meals and a nap.
“I’ve been doing a lot of thinking,” Diets said after clearing his throat as we had a picnic for dinner in bed. I froze in mid-bite of my chicken leg when I felt his apprehension. This couldn’t be good. “I’m okay with giving up my job to be with you guys. You’re both more important to me than being a fireman.”
“No, Diets,” I gasped and dropped my dinner. “You love being a fireman!”
“Yes, I do,” he replied quietly. “But I can’t do both and live here with you guys.”
“Yes, you can, Diets,” Curtis said firmly. “I know things are crazy now, but we’ll figure something out. Conley and I are working our tails off to resolve this before you’d be getting back to work after being injured. I’d never ask you to give up what you love for us. Compromise at times, yes. But straight-out give up? No way. You’re good at what you do, and you spent years of training and education to get there.”
“Really?” Diets asked as he pulled me against him.
“Yeah, our sexy fireman.” Curtis chuckled. “Though I expect your hat to make an appearance in bed one day while you’re riding me. It’s a new fantasy of mine.”
“You really thought committing to us meant you had to give up your job?”
“Not at first,” he answered and kissed my temple. Then I felt Curtis’ body behind mine and knew Diets had pulled him to us. “But when you guys filled me in on the situation last night and said it was bad enough for us to be guarded, I figured I had to. I mean, is someone going to try to take me out at work? That could put my men in jeopardy, and I won’t do that to them.”
“And I’d never ask you to,” Curtis replied. “Mitchell and his men followed Aaron’s cell phone signal to a location. They’re coordinating with Conley’s guys as to how to handle everything. But it means the world to me that you’d be willing to sacrifice the job you love to be with us.”
“Me, too,” I purred as I rubbed against him.
“Family’s more important to me than a job, even one I love.” Diets sighed and wrapped Curtis in a group hug. “I lost my parents when I was a baby. And then I lost my grandpa when I was fifteen and had no one, so I got stuck in foster care. While I didn’t have any issues like I know a lot of kids did in the system, I always longed for a family. I have one now, and I’d do anything to keep us a family.”
“We love you, too,” I said, pursing my lips for a kiss. He chuckled and gave me one. “I think such a wonderful gesture deserves another reward—for both of you. Curtis has been working hard to make sure we’re safe after all.”
“What did you have in mind, angel?” Diets hissed in my ear as Curtis moved and started clearing off the bed. “Could it involve toys?”
“Isn’t that a treat for me?” I giggled and squirmed against him.
“Well, you have been taking wonderful care of me today,” he said as he started undressing me. Since we’d stayed in bed most of the day, I was only wearing pajama pants. He had them off in a flash and then started on his own as I heard Curtis finish up moving our dinner off the bed.
Curtis had sent one of the vampires that was a doctor in earlier to take out Diets’s stitches and gave him a clean bill of health. That was the only reason I was okay with him being physically active right now.
“Do you trust us, angel?” he asked in that whiskey drawl that made me shiver with lust.
“With my life,” I answered honestly as Curtis moved me to lie back on the bed. “You’re both turned on by the idea of being here to see me use toys for the first time, aren’t you?”
“Oh yeah,” they both groaned and ran their hands over my body. I felt myself heat up and get hard at the TLC.
“I’m all yours,” I whimpered as slick fingers rubbed against my hole. “What are you planning on doing to me?”
“We’ll keep it a surprise for now,” Curtis growled and pushed in two fingers. “Unless you get frightened. If you don’t like something or get scared, just let us know and we’ll stop, okay?”
“Okay,” I moaned and spread my legs wider. I’m sure I looked like a slut, lying there all spread out, begging for their attention. But I didn’t care. They were my mates, and they loved and wanted me. I was theirs—heart, body, and soul. I would always offer myself up to them any time they wanted.
“It’s going to be cold,” Diets warned before Curtis pulled out his fingers. Then there was something hard but slicked up pushing at my hole. He was right. It was cold and not a dick. Were they going to use a dildo on me? The idea got a purr from me as it was pushed inside of me.
Then Diets latched his mouth on to one of my nipples, and I reached up to run my fingers through his hair. I went to tell them how kinky they were, but I couldn’t form words because the thing in my ass started vibrating. Holy fuck!
“I think he likes it.” Curtis chuckled as I cried out. He ran his finger over my leaking cock as Diets moved onto the other nipple. Then something metal clamped down on the nipple he’d just been playing with, and I went nuts.
“Toys good. I like toys,” I whimpered as Curtis fucked me with the dildo. He started off slow but then picked up speed until I was hard enough to pound nails.
