“I read erotic romance,” she confessed on a sigh.
“Mmmm,” Evan reached down and began to pull her shirt from her pants as he leaned in and brushed a kiss over her lips. “Has what you read given you any ideas? Any fantasies you’d like to try?”
“A few,” Autumn admitted, suddenly feeling shy.
The men shared a deep, sexy laugh. Frank leaned in and kissed her. Evan released her hand and slid both hands under her shirt. She moaned softly as he stroked his way from waistline up her chest. When he cupped a breast in each hand, her overactive brain shut down, and all she could do was feel.
All she could do was gasp as Frank pulled her away from his brother and swept her up into his arms.
Chapter Five
If they wouldn’t risk running into Spring, Frank would have carried their mate to their bedroom on the third floor of the Wash House. But he knew he couldn’t last that long. When Evan met his gaze, he read the same intense hunger that he felt in his own bones. There was no way either one of them could wait long enough to get to a room with a bed.
In that instant, he understood why his brothers had been as rash as they had been with their own mates. All he could think about was getting Autumn naked so he could bury his throbbing cock deep inside his mate. He knew Evan felt the same way and that they would not be leaving the workshop until they had done so. He also knew in his bones that before they let this building, Autumn would be begging for them to claim her, and they would.
Frank knew what they had to do. It wouldn’t be pretty, especially for Autumn’s first time, but he vowed they would make it up to her soon. Right now, desire rode too close to the surface for any of them to last long. But with every surface in the room covered with wood dust, the workshop was too dirty for what they were about to do.
Evan angled his head toward the back of the room. Frank nodded in silent agreement and followed. In seconds, they crossed the room and passed through the door that led to the office. Without hesitation, they kept going until they entered the storage area at the back of the building.
A glance toward the woman in his arms and Frank grinned even as his cock throbbed with excitement. Autumn watched with curiosity, but he did not read fear in her. That was good. She felt it and wanted the mating, even if she didn’t know exactly what pulled her toward them. Even if she asked, he would have a hard time explaining except to tell her what his mother had told them when they had come of age.
“The Fates have matched you with the perfect mate, and if you are lucky, very lucky, you will find each other. Then, for the rest of your lives, you will find happiness, contentment, and joy.”
Autumn shifted in his arms, and he looked down at her. “You okay, sweetheart?”
She nodded. “Did you guys make all this furniture?” she asked as she looked around the storage area. Tables, chairs, benches, and parts of handcrafted beds half-filled the room. Unlike the workshop, they tried to keep this area clean. The furniture was wrapped in plastic to keep them dust-free as they waited for delivery to their new homes.
Frank nodded and leaned down for a kiss. He wasn’t sure how much longer he could wait, but he knew it wouldn’t be long. He could feel his dog jerking hard at his tenuous control, demanding to claim its mate.
With one eye on where he was going, he followed Evan to the oversized dining table in the center of the room. Along the way, his brother picked up a stack of blankets from near the doorway. The table was the perfect height for what they needed. By the time he reached the table, Evan had several packing-blankets spread across the table to soften their woman’s resting place.
Frank set their woman on her feet next to the table, and with an inner strength he didn’t realize he had, took a step back. But Autumn would have none of it. She followed, and, reaching for the hem of his shirt, she pushed it up his chest.
“Mmmm,” she hummed as she leaned in.
He sucked a breath at the feel of her tongue against his skin. His cock screamed that he’d better speed things up or else he was going to embarrass himself by coming in his pants. Before he could stop her, she’d turned away and did the same thing to Evan, who growled in response.
Then she stepped back. Reaching down, she grabbed the hem of her own shirt and in the next heartbeat stripped it over her head and dropped it to the floor behind her, exposing a bright red sports bra which followed the T-shirt to the floor.
“I feel so…so…so out of control,” she said as she toed off her sneakers. “All I want is to get naked and rub my body all over yours and more.”
With that admission, Frank’s fear of moving too quickly evaporated like smoke in a high wind. She felt the mating pull just as strongly as he did. All would be well.
After pulling his shirt over his head and taking off his shoes and socks, he undid the button of his jeans. As he pulled the zipper down, he checked the others’ progress. Evan wore only a pair of loose black boxers.
Autumn, wearing only a pair of red boy short panties, stood with her arms wrapped around her middle, staring at the floor. She was too thin, shadows delineating each rib and her hipbones prominent. She looked tense as a bowstring and scared as a kitten in a room full of hungry dogs.
“Autumn? Sweetheart, what’s wrong?” he asked as he shoved his jeans down his legs and struggled to get his lower legs out of them.
As soon as he was free, he crossed to her. Evan beat him there by seconds and wrapped himself around their woman.
“Ladybug, what’s the matter?” Frank asked as he stroked her spine.
Evan leaned in and nuzzled his cheek against hers. “Do you want to stop, sweetness?”
She shook her head. “I just need a minute. It’s been awhile since I’ve never been naked in front of anyone. I’ve been sick,” she admitted softly, as if they couldn’t see for themselves. “I picked up a parasite in the desert, but I got treatment, and I’m better now.”
Evan huffed a sigh of relief, which matched his own.
“Look at me, sweetheart,” Frank said, shifting to rest his chin at the edge of her shoulder.
It took a few seconds, but finally, she turned her head so they were nose to nose.
“You are beautiful. You have nothing to be ashamed of. We’re your mates. We’re allowed to see you naked, and honestly, I can’t wait to explore every inch of you.”
He watched her anxiety ease and her smile grow mischievous just before she gave a tiny nod. “Does that mean I get to explore your bodies, too?”
“Absolutely!” the brothers said in unison.
“Now?”
“Anytime you want, ladybug,” Frank answered as he pressed his cock into her side. “We are at your command. All you have to do is ask.”
She nodded then bit at her lower lip. She looked excited, but nervous. “I’m no good at being in charge when it comes to sex.”
Chapter Six
Autumn held her breath, waiting for the brothers’ response. When it was deep masculine laughter, she relaxed.
“Don’t worry about it, ladybug,” Frank said as the two men shoved their boxers to the floor and stepped out of them.
Before she could get a good look at their groins, they knelt before her and helped her out of her panties. She looked down and wondered what their response would be as her secret was revealed.
“Ooooh, lookie here, our mate has a tattoo,” Evan said once she was naked.
“It’s a dog head,” Frank said as he looked up at her and winked.
Both men then brushed their fingers over the tattoo that sat just inside her prominent right hipbone. Neither man commented on the pussy that was bare except for the small triangle that pointed to the top of her clit
“It’s a wolfhound,” she clarified. “A group of girls from my class went and got them once we graduated from basic training. The others chose butterflies or flowers or hearts. When I saw this on the wall I had to have it, though I couldn’t explain why. I guess now I know.”
Evan looked at her with a proud exp
ression before leaning in and kissing the wolf. Frank’s expression was awe just before he leaned in and licked at the tattoo. Then a hand ran up the inside of her left leg, weakening her knees once again.
Evan caught her before she hit the floor and shifted her to straddle his lap. His cock pressed into her lower belly, and her nipples raked across his chest hair, causing them both to suck a breath. He wrapped his big hands around her hips and tilted them forward. That move pressed her erect clit against the base of his cock. She moaned when he began to lift and lower her so she rode up and down the underside of his thick, solid length.
Shifting her shoulders, Autumn dragged her sensitive nipples across his chest as Frank turned her head so he could kiss her.
When she could not stand the multiple stimulations any longer without going completely out of her mind, she broke the kiss.
“Please. Fuck me,” she whimpered.
Without a word, Evan lifted her until the rounded head of his cock brushed against her entrance. Then he just held her there, suspended above him until she turned to glare at him.
“Can I claim you as well?” he asked in a deep growly voice that only made her ache more for him to fill her empty cunt.
Not able to find the words, she nodded in response. When he quickly lowered her, filling her to capacity with his cock, she cried out as she clenched at his shoulders.
“Oh shit, you’re so tight,” he growled.
Still controlling her hips, he held her still with their groins tightly pressed together as she adjusted to his size. Glancing into his face, she knew the wait was costing him but what few brain cells still worked appreciated his effort. She tried to relax the muscles that were clenching around his cock as she grew accustomed to the overly full feeling caused by this well-endowed male.
A few seconds later, a need for more rose up in her. Shifting her legs so she had control of her legs, she began to lift and lower herself, riding his cock in long, slow strokes.
Looking into his eyes, she grinned at the intense expression of passion he wore. “Like that, do you?”
“Mmmm,” he responded, as his fingers tightened over her and he began to move her faster. “You have no idea how much.”
“God, that is so damn sexy,” Frank growled, pulling her attention away from the man she rode.
Looking at Evan’s twin, she found him slowly stroking his cock as he watched her every move. The dark, fleshy length with its dark crimson head looked yummy. It had been ages since she’d given head. She hoped that it was like riding a bicycle—you never forgot.
“Stand up, Frank,” she gently commanded.
He met her eyes for a single heartbeat as if questioning her words. But he obviously saw she was serious, for he scrambled to his feet and moved to stand next to them.
Before she took him in, she looked at Evan who moved her even faster up and down his length. “You don’t mind, do you?”
He looked shocked. “Hell no. Do whatever feels right, sweetness.”
Autumn gave him a quick kiss before turning back to the cockhead only an inch from her lips. Parting her lips, she extended her tongue and licked the drop of clear fluid from his slit.
“Mmmm,” she moaned.
Opening her mouth even wider, she took the first couple of inches and she swirled her tongue around the head. Frank growled as his hands slid through her hair to cup the back of her head. His hips shifted as she began to bob up and down on him, taking more and more of his length in.
Autumn hoped that by dividing her attention between the brothers she would be able to hold off her orgasm, but her plan failed when Evan held her hips still and began to thrust up into her harder and faster than before.
As a ball of white-hot fire built just behind her clit, she knew she needed one more thing to make this encounter complete. Pulling off Frank’s cock, she met Evan’s burning hot-green gaze.
“Claim me,” she ordered roughly.
Without waiting for his response, she returned to sucking Frank while gently cupping his balls with one hand. Long before she was finished with him, he pulled from her mouth. When she reached for him, he stepped beyond her reach as if knowing what was coming.
“Come, sweetness,” Evan ordered gruffly.
He wrapped a hand around the back of her neck and tilted her head to the left just before he bit her. The instant his teeth entered her skin, she screamed as the fireball of her orgasm exploded. A heartbeat later, heat filled her core as Evan came. His roar was only slightly muffled by the shoulder he was sucking on.
Her orgasm rolled through her like waves in a bottle until Evan pulled his teeth from her and licked at her skin. Only then did it settle and she relaxed into his embrace, though a strange tension continued to buzz within her.
She snuggled her face into his neck with a smile. “Mmmm, good,” she breathed as she licked at a drop of sweat on his skin.
Evan cuddled her for a few minutes then she felt Frank’s hands rubbing up and down her back as well.
“Don’t fall asleep yet, ladybug,” Frank said, sounding tense.
Though all she wanted to do was curl up and take a nap, she knew there was more to come. The deep timbre of Frank’s voice seemed to reignite the fire of passion in her. When Frank eased her from Evan’s lap, she didn’t fight the transition. She didn’t even open her eyes. She just snuggled into the warmth of Frank’s chest as he picked her up and carried her a few steps and then laid her down on her back.
Opening her eyes, she found herself lying on the blankets Evan had laid on the table earlier. Frank positioned her so her ass was barely on the table. He pushed her knees up to her chest as he stepped in close.
“I’m sorry, ladybug, but I can’t wait any longer,” he said just before forcefully sliding his cock into her full length on the first thrust.
Immediately, the hunger, that only seconds before had eased, returned full force. She could see it was costing him to hold still and give her time to adjust, but she didn’t need it. She needed him. All of him. Right this second.
“Fuck me, Frank,” she moaned.
The words had barely hit the air when he pulled out and began to fuck her fast and hard. The fact that her body responded with an instantaneous spiraling of her own need did not surprise her. She had a feeling this was how it would be with these men from now on. She only hoped they wouldn’t do this in front of the rest of the family. It might get embarrassing.
Her orgasm balled up so fast and so tight that the muscles down the front of her body clenched, pulling her head off the table. Needing something to hold onto to keep her from flying away like an overfilled balloon, Autumn grabbed Frank’s arms and pulled on them until he lay hunched over her.
“Claim me as your mate, Frank,” she said.
Turning her head so he had access to the left side, she waited. It only took a few seconds for him to begin fucking her so hard and fast she couldn’t track his movements. Then he slid one arm under her back and lifted her head and shoulders from the table.
Again, she screamed and came as teeth sunk into her shoulder. And, as with Evan, her orgasm seemed to set Frank off as well. He howled as he thrust his cock in her as deep as it would go. She felt it pulse in the same rhythm that he sucked from her skin.
When he pulled his teeth free, she felt herself go completely limp. She couldn’t even lift her arms to hug Frank as he lay over her. For the first time in her adult life, Autumn Ryan felt relaxed, happy, and without a care in the world.
“God, ladybug, what you do to me,” Frank said as he licked at the place where he’d bit her. “I can’t feel my feet.”
“Hmmm,” was the only response Autumn could make.
She whined when Frank moved away. She tried to squirm but couldn’t when Evan gently cleaned her up. After that, she faded into a pink cloud of hazy happiness unlike anything she’d ever felt before.
Chapter Seven
The pink cloud slowly faded away, leaving her feeling like a new person. When she thought sh
e’d regained enough strength she pushed herself into a sitting position and looked around. The men were already dressed and sitting on a bench just in front of her. They looked relaxed and happy, yet also fearful.
“What’s wrong?” she asked, knowing she sounded as naïve as a kindergartner.
“You don’t regret it, do you?” Evan asked.
“Regret what?”
“Regret us claiming you. There’s no going back now. You are ours,” Frank said.
“And you’re both mine,” Autumn pointed out. “I think I got the better end of that deal.”
When she pushed off the table, her legs refused to hold her. Frank caught her and held her while her legs quivered beneath her. Once she was able to stand on her own, Frank helped her get dressed while Evan disappeared somewhere.
As Frank tied her shoes, Evan rejoined them and handed her a large steel travel mug.
“Drink.”
Though he’d spoken the word gently, one look at his expression told her it was a command, not a request. Lifting the cup to her mouth, she took a sip and was surprised to find not water or coffee, but some kind of fruit juice. Suddenly, she felt parched and quickly drank the contents down without pausing for breath.
“Feel better?” Frank asked when she finished drinking.
She nodded, embarrassed that she had not even offered to share. Just as she opened her mouth to apologize, they heard someone banging on the closed workshop door.
“Frank? Evan? Are you in there? Is Autumn with you?”
The men exchanged a look then sighed. Autumn could tell they were not yet ready to share her with anyone else.
“Hang on,” Evan called as he jogged out of the storage room.
Frank and Autumn followed a couple of steps behind so that by the time they reached the front of the doorway, the door had been opened far enough open they could easily walk through.
Spring stood just outside with her arms crossed over an enormously pregnant belly. Looking from one man to the other, she then looked at her sister with one eyebrow and the smartass grin she always wore when she was right.
