Meeka's Reluctant Mates [Beckett's Wolf Pack, Triad Mates 5] (Siren Publishing Ménage and More)
Page 28
“I’m not,” Cammy said, her voice strong. It was amazing to her that she actually didn’t have any worry within her. Since she had come back to Kaley’s apartment, she had been confused with what she was feeling, but she was certain that she was finally safe.
Garrett took another uneven length of Cammy’s silky blonde hair between his fingers and trimmed it evenly. Touching her was something that he knew was something that he would always treasure. Seeing the way Ryker was watching them both with extreme satisfaction also made him happy. He was hopeful that they might actually bond as a triad soon. Seeing how Cammy was comfortable with him and with Ryker gave him hope. Perhaps this kind and sweet woman would accept them—flaws and all.
“Finished,” he said quietly, secretly disappointed that he didn’t have an excuse to touch her any longer.
Cammy turned to Ryker and waited. “What do you think?” she asked finally.
“Beautiful,” Ryker said without hesitation, not trusting himself to say anything further.
Cammy’s bright smile made him smile in return. He watched in fascination as she reached out and grabbed for his hand to squeeze it lightly. Despite his resolve to keep his distance from her, he couldn’t help but return the gesture, knowing he did the right thing when a sweet, soft laugh escaped her.
“Thank you, Garrett,” she said, turning around and standing to embrace Garrett and give him a quick hug.
Garrett was stunned into silence. He roughly cleared his throat while he patted her back lightly. When she stepped away from him and walked over to Eric to open her arms and accept the little boy as he eased out of Reece’s hold, Garrett watched in silence, remembering how he had held their little son in their shared vision.
“What do you think, Eric?” she asked him happily. “Do you like my new haircut?”
“It’s pretty,” Eric said honestly as he reached up and played with the short curls that framed her face and fell just below her ears. “Do you like it, Cammy?”
“I do,” Cammy said without hesitation. She ran her hand over her head and felt the evenness of the haircut, calming immediately. “Garrett did a really good job.”
She turned to face him and smiled gently, sensing the happiness that filled the man at her words. Walking over to him, she stood directly before him and breathed in deeply. Something smelled incredible. It was like smelling baking bread. That was a scent that gave her great peace and happiness. It reminded her of her childhood when she would come home from school and smell the bread her mother was baking in the kitchen.
“Eric, this is Garrett Michaels,” she introduced him, pulling herself out of her musings. “And that guy over there is Ryker Anthony.” She pointed to Ryker and saw that he stood to get closer to her and Eric. “They came to get me yesterday.”
Eric held out his hand to shake first Garrett’s hand and then Ryker’s. “Hi,” he said, his tone cautious. “Are these good guys, Cammy?” He leaned against Cammy’s chest and buried his head into her neck as worry filled him.
“They’re definitely good guys,” Cammy told him immediately. “They helped me a lot.”
She smiled up at them as she hugged Eric to her tightly. In that moment, a flash of a vision filled her mind.
She was running through a meadow and there were two wolves running alongside of her. She saw herself sitting down next to a babbling brook then lying back on the grass while the two wolves stood over her, licking at her face and making her laugh. There was a swirl of blue light around the wolves and they suddenly shimmered away to reveal Garrett and Ryker who lay down beside her and kissed her. Their hands were touching her belly and she suddenly realized that she was very pregnant. Both men were whispering in her ear that they loved that she was carrying their baby.
She looked at both men in shock. “Wolves,” she whispered as she looked up at them and saw the way their eyes had turned completely golden.
“Don’t be afraid,” Garrett whispered.
Cammy turned and bumped into Meeka, pushing Eric into her arms and escaping the kitchen. She didn’t know where she was running to. She didn’t even know what she was running from. Except for the fact that she had just had a vision that had shown her that Ryker and Garrett were wolves, it was a nice vision. She was pregnant and the men were happy that she was pregnant with their baby. Their baby? Oh, goodness! She was having a nervous breakdown!
“What just happened?” Meeka asked, turning to face Garrett and Ryker.
“We just shared a vision of our future,” Ryker answered for the both of them. “Our mate just saw that we are wolf.”
“Your mate?” Meeka whispered. She looked up at Reece and Wade and saw that both men were smiling at Ryker and Garrett.
“Congratulations,” Nathaniel spoke up from his place next to the sink where he and Brett were standing beside Kaley as she stood at the stove cooking pancakes for all of them.
“It seems that this was a destined trip for all of us,” Brett added, looking down at Kaley and smiling.
Meeka looked at her sister and saw that she was pointedly ignoring Brett and Nathaniel. She couldn’t help but laugh softly at the fact that her sister actually thought she might be able to deny the destined mating. Mother Fate had been pretty clear that when you meet the right ones that were meant for you, there was no denying it.
“Mother Fate knew,” Meeka told her mates quietly.
Reece nodded, trying to come to terms with the fact that the Fates had delayed the return of their own mate so that two other triads could find each other. It was a difficult pill to swallow, but he knew that it was necessary in order for Nathaniel and Brett, and Ryker and Garret to find their mates. Despite the fact that his mind understood it, his body revolted against it. His wolf raged in anger, demanding to be released so that he could reclaim Meeka.
Meeka heard the grumbling growl that was increasing in intensity. She saw that Reece’s eyes had turned completely golden. Looking to Wade for help, she saw that his, too, were displaying the power of his wolf.
“What’s wrong?” she whispered, glad when Kaley came and took Eric from her arms so she could slip her arms around her mates’ waists and hold them as she stroked their backs tenderly.
“Mate,” Wade growled, his canines dropping as he fought to control his wolf.
Reece wasn’t as lucky. He reached up to grip Meeka’s hair, realizing in horror that his hands had morphed into claws. His wolf was fully in control. He fought to push him down, afraid that he would hurt Meeka.
“It’s okay,” Meeka said soothingly, reaching up and drawing his morphed hand to her mouth to kiss it tenderly. “You’ll be okay. I’m here.”
“We’re all going out for breakfast,” Nathaniel spoke up, reaching out and turning off the stove before grabbing for Kaley, turning her toward the kitchen door, and giving her a gentle push to get her moving. “Let’s go, everyone. We need to give Reece, Meeka, and Wade some privacy.”
Ryker and Garrett led the way out of the kitchen. They were two men in search of their frightened mate. Brett, Nathaniel, and Kaley followed quickly after them, Eric laughing sweetly as Kaley bounced him in her arms.
“Meeka?” Kaley called over her shoulder as she was being ushered out of the kitchen.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry, Kales,” Meeka told her sister, never taking her eyes off of her mates.
“If you’re sure,” Kaley said worriedly.
“I am.”
“Okay, but they’d better not hurt you,” Kaley said angrily.
“They won’t sweetheart,” Nathaniel told her quietly. “They just need to reclaim their mate. Their wolves are demanding it. They’ve been apart from her for too long.”
“Their wolves have realized that they’ve been denied her because all of us had to meet. It has made the hurt too much to take right now,” Brett explained. “I would be the same way if someone kept you from me and Nathaniel.”
Kaley snapped her mouth shut. She didn’t know what to say to that. Instead, she allowed Natha
niel and Brett to lead her and Eric out of the kitchen, bundle them into their coats, and rush them from the apartment.
Meeka reached up and slid her hand behind both men’s necks, rubbing her thumbs along the columns of their throats. Both men’s rumbling growls quickly eased to contented purrs. Meeka couldn’t help but smile that her two powerful wolves had been calmed into being sweet cats.
“I think everyone has gone,” Meeka said quietly.
Both men nodded, never taking their golden eyes from her. Meeka leaned in and kissed below Wade’s chin.
“I think we should take advantage of the privacy,” she whispered against his neck before she kissed it lightly. Doing the same to Reece, she smiled as she realized that his hands had returned to his human form. “I need you both to follow me.”
Stepping back until she was completely free from their arms, she pushed at their chests lightly, smiling when they immediately stepped aside so she could walk between them. They followed her silently, walking into the bedroom they had shared the night before. When both men were inside the room, Meeka carefully shut the door behind them.
“Go and sit on the bed,” she told them, her heart racing as they followed her instruction without hesitation. She walked over to stand in front of them, looking at them silently as they watched her with such intensity in their eyes, she felt as if they were about to combust.
“Mate,” Reece whispered.
“I know, Reece,” she said, stopping him. “I need you both to concentrate on my voice. Don’t think about anything but the words I’m saying and the love I have for you.”
She reached out and took the hem of Wade’s black sweatshirt in her grip and slowly slid it up his body before tugging it over his head. She dropped it onto the floor, stepping closer and standing between his spread legs. Gliding her fingers across his shoulder, tracing the muscles of his chest, and slowly circling his nipple, she made a sound that was suspiciously like a growl of her own.
“I’ve missed touching you,” she whispered.
Wade reached up to bracket her waist with his hands and pulled her closer to him so he could rub his face across her breasts. Meeka smiled as she pushed out of his arms and stepped out of his reach.
“I’m going to pay attention to Reece,” she told him softly. “I want you to take off the rest of your clothes and get up onto the bed while I’m giving him some love.”
Wade smiled as he stood and began to unbuckled his belt and unzip his jeans. Meeka watched him only long enough to make sure that he was doing as she had asked him to then turned to step within Reece’s spread legs, reached down, and tugged on his maroon sweatshirt. She couldn’t prevent the giggle that escaped her as Reece pulled it off his body with such strength and speed that it sailed across the bedroom and hit the far wall.
“Reece, are you in a hurry?” she teased him.
“Mate, if I’m not inside you within the next minute, I will lose what’s left of my mind,” he told her seriously.
“Well, we can’t have that, now, can we?” she said softly as she leaned in and whispered words of love against his shoulder before biting down on it lightly. “Take off your clothes and lie down.”
She stepped back and waited as Reece undressed faster than she would have ever thought possible. She watched with great satisfaction as he settled himself on the bed, smiling as she saw that the men left enough space for her to settle in her spot between them.
“You look so beautiful,” she told them as she pushed down the black velour sweatpants and blue lace underwear that she was wearing and stepped out of them.
Climbing up onto the bed, she knelt between her men, reaching out and touching their legs with just the lightest of touches. As she slid her hands up their thighs and rubbed their hips, the deep rumbling growls they emitted sent a rush of excitement through her. She felt powerful, she felt important, and she felt loved. These incredible men had done that for her. To be so desired and loved was something she never thought she would ever experience in her life. Sending her equal desire and love for her mates through their bond, she was glad to know that they could experience her emotions so they would know how much she valued them.
Leaning across Reece, she kissed his lips lightly, biting at his lower lip and laughing softly as he growled at her. “Have patience, Mate,” she whispered. “I’m going to love you.”
Reece smiled and closed his eyes, enjoying the tenderness that their woman was showing him. He would show her all the patience in the world. They had a lifetime to love. They had a future together that was filled with endless possibilities and a boatload of love and happiness. They were going to be a family. What could be better than that?
Meeka eased back and leaned over Wade to kiss her way up his neck, biting at his chin lightly before settling her lips upon his and giving him a kiss that was soft, gentle, and filled with all the love and desire she had for him.
“Do you know how much I love you, Wade?” she whispered against his cheek, laughing softly when she saw the immediate smile he gifted her with.
“Yes, baby,” he whispered. “I know. Do you know how much you’re loved?”
“I have a pretty good idea,” she told him, laughing softly.
Easing away from both men, she saw their eyes snap open as they grew concerned at her distance. When they saw that she was pulling her pink sweatshirt from her body, they both settled and watched her with rapt attention. She felt empowered by the fact that they allowed her to take control. It was wonderful.
Throwing her sweatshirt toward the bottom of the bed, she reached behind her and unhooked her blue lace bra, slowly pulled it from her body and allowed it to drop from her fingertips. The growls of her men increased in volume and intensity. When she reached up to cup the undersides of her breasts, she moaned softly.
“My breasts are a little sensitive because of my pregnancy,” she told them softly.
“We’ll be gentle,” Reece promised for the both of them.
“I know you will,” Meeka told them, leaning forward and rubbing her breasts across Reece’s chest and moaning slightly at the sexy feel of his chest hair tickling her skin. “Hands to yourself for now.” She laughed softly at the immediate groan of frustration that left both men. She pulled away from Reece and lay across Wade’s chest, biting down on it lightly before rubbing her breasts across his muscles. “Can you promise to keep your hands to yourself, Wade?”
“Yes, baby,” Wade answered on a groan. “But for how long? I need to touch you.”
“Just a little longer,” Meeka promised, climbing to her feet and standing between the two of them. She placed her hands on the wall above the headboard and looked down at them, smiling as they looked up at her with barely contained desire.
“Straddle my chest, Meeka,” Reece demanded.
Meeka lifted her left leg and stepped over Reece’s chest, opening herself to him as he looked up at her. When he sat up, grabbed for her hips, and drew her toward him to breathe in the scent of her, she gasped at the intimate action.
“I can smell your desire,” he told her, reaching up and spreading her lips to lick at her already dripping channel. Her taste exploded on his tongue, and he growled softly as he savored the new taste of her—the taste that spoke of the child she was carrying. “Delicious.”
Meeka couldn’t help but blush at his comment and would have pulled away in embarrassment, but Reece held her hips still as he licked at her, sucking her clit into his mouth and biting down on it carefully. Her legs began to shake as pleasure rushed through her.
“Reece,” she moaned, reaching down with her left hand and gripping his hair as her orgasm burst within her. She was thankful for Reece’s strength as she lost all ability to control her limbs and sagged against him.
“Good, little one?” Reece teased her.
“Mmmm,” Meeka babbled.
“Come here, baby,” Wade called to her, as he touched her leg and caressed it lightly.
Meeka could barely focus let alone move.
“You have to help me, Wade,” she was finally able to whisper.
Wade chuckled softly as he and Reece helped to maneuver her body so that she straddled Wade’s chest. She rested her hands against the wall to steady herself as Wade leaned in and spread her so he could taste the cream that was dripping down her inner thighs. At the first taste, he moaned at the remembered scent and taste of their woman, his heart racing as he tasted how it was now slightly different because of their cub.
“So good, baby,” he said against her inner thigh.
He pulled her down so that she sat on his waist, knowing she was too sensitive to push her into another orgasm just yet. He petted her back lightly, holding her warm body against his chest and allowing the happiness and contentment he was feeling to wash over all of them.
Meeka looked up at Wade and smiled the most incredibly sexy smile he had ever seen. He watched her silently, groaning softly as she pushed herself up and ran her hands across his chest. When she slowly slid down his body, reaching down to take firm hold of his shaft and place it at the entrance to her body, his heart hammered against his chest in anticipation. When she slowly pushed down on his length and took him deep into her body, stars exploded behind his eyes at the pleasure the connection with her gave him.
Meeka panted softly as she forced herself to remain still so that her body could adjust to the fullness of Wade’s cock. Easing up, she entwined her fingers with Wade’s and began to rock her hips slowly, taking Wade deep inside of her over and over again. Each press forward and back as she sat angled slightly away from Wade made his shaft rub across her G-spot deliciously. The pleasure was so intense she found herself quickly on the edge. When Wade surged up inside of her, it was all she needed to send her that little bit beyond her simmering pleasure to throw her head-first into an orgasm.
She called out Wade’s name, squeezing his hands tightly as her body gripped his and pulsed with each wave of pleasure she was experiencing. Falling forward, she was glad for the solid strength of him as he caught her carefully and held her against him.
