Kate Undone

by Marie Harte

  Chen smiled as if nothing odd had just happened, and his tattoos stopped…hissing? “They do what they’re told.” He cleared his throat. “I apologize, Dominic. Sometimes I can’t help my aggression. And the power in you is strong. Give my best to your queen and the twins.”

  Logan blinked. “How do you know what she’s having?”

  Chen shrugged. “Good news is hard to hide. Do yourselves a favor and go home. And watch out for Lawless. I have a feeling he won’t stop until he’s put down.”

  “Thanks for your help.” He shouldered Dom’s weight on one side while Terry caught him on the other. Between them, they walked Dom toward the exit, letting in a burst of light.

  “No problem. And good luck with your pack, Logan.” Chen waved. He and his crew watched them depart the warehouse.

  The clan headed toward a pair of dark SUVs.

  “Shit. What the fuck did he do to me?” Dom asked in a daze.

  “Whatever it was,” Jesse answered, “it wasn’t good. My guer didn’t like it.”

  “Mine neither,” Terry muttered.

  “Freak,” one of the Ravagers agreed.

  “Fucking spawn,” said another.

  Logan wondered. “But his guer was strong. Even for a non-Ravager, he radiated warrior.”

  “You know what? I don’t care.” Kate huffed her annoyance. “I’m in heat, I have two males needing my attention, and we’re just sitting around waiting for what, exactly?”

  Everyone stopped, drawn by the sweet scent of a female in need, and then Jesse and Logan hustled Kate away from the others into the lead vehicle.

  Dom grinned. “Good idea. We’ll see you at home.”

  Logan could hear Terry whining as they got in the SUV. “But Dom, there are seven of us. We’re not going to fit.”

  “You want to tell that to Kate and her mates?”

  A pregnant pause. “Never mind.”

  “I didn’t think so.”

  Logan smiled. Time to head back home and make all of Kate’s dreams come true.

  Chapter Seven

  Three long days later, after being interrogated ad nauseum by the prime and his annoying though well-meaning pack, to include Vicki, of all people, after going through more traditional dinners, ceremonies and sharing her vows of love and devotion for her males in front of the entire clan, Kate’s patience would soon be rewarded.

  “I still don’t see why I had to go through all that nonsense. You didn’t,” Kate said to Vicki.

  The human queen snorted. “I’m not a Ravager. And thank God. If I’d had to wait even two minutes before my guys could take me, I’d have gone friggin’ nuts. Have to hand it to you, Kate. You’re a lot more patient than I’d thought.”

  “Gee, thanks.” The animosity Kate normally felt when in Vicki’s presence no longer existed.

  “Well, it wasn’t like you were burning up the sheets after you claimed them in the forest. We were worried about you.”

  The proverbial “we”. Vicki and her pack. “Well don’t be.”

  “Yeah, yeah. Not my business. You know, real human queens are a lot more managing. Seems like all I get to do is spread pregnancy like a disease.” Vicki glared down at her rounded stomach but patted it with tenderness. “At least I don’t have to wait the whole nine months. Puppies are going to be a huge pain in the ass, I just know it.”

  “Like their fathers,” Kate said wryly, and Vicki grinned. “Well, don’t worry about me having a litter. A female’s first heat is rarely fertile.”

  “Yeah, and there’s never been a Ravager queen who wasn’t Ravager. Last I heard, there are four females now pregnant.”

  Kate swallowed. “Four?”

  The smile Vicki shot her looked evil. “Oh yeah. Maybe five after today, hmm, Kate?”

  Her mates saved her from smacking their queen upside the head.

  “My queen.” Logan nodded but didn’t look away from Kate, his gaze hungry.

  “Vicki.” Jesse raised a brow at Kate. “Well? We’re ready.”

  She ignored Vicki, who held up a hand, spread her fingers wide and mouthed five.

  Jesse frowned. “What?”

  “Never mind.” Buzzing with happiness and caught in an affectionate lust that made it hard to think of anything but loving her mates, Kate took them both by the hand and pulled them behind the mansion—their home. As the new head of her pack, Kate could have moved them all away, but she had no intention of living in the city, as some of the other Ravagers did. She planned to live here at the compound, and hopefully raise her young surrounded by pack and clan.

  “You sure you want to finish this in the woods? No bed?” Jesse asked.

  Though a bed right now was much closer, and it had been three long, excruciating days apart from her mates, Kate wanted this to be special. No interruptions, no rush. Just the three of them loving together. Really together. “Let’s shift and run to your favorite meeting spot.”

  Already taking off his clothes and folding them in a neat pile on the porch steps, Logan smiled. “Let’s get wild and freaky Kate’s way. This is her fantasy.”

  “Yeah? Well I’ve got a few of my own. And they involve a lash, some ropes and bed posts. For both of you.” Jesse flashed a wolfish grin.

  Kate sucked in a breath as a wave of desire made her skin pebble with goosebumps. Though the fall weather didn’t bother her, the need for her mates did.

  “I felt that all the way to my balls. Shit. Let’s go.” Logan quickly shifted, standing heads above her in his guer. His sharp teeth snapped and he howled as he sniffed the air, catching her scent on the breeze.

  Jesse joined him, now naked and shifted as well. The pair of them looked so much alike when furry that most of the clan couldn’t tell them apart. But Kate could. Jesse watched her with possessive eyes, looking so handsome, so sexy. A real werewolf come to life. She wondered what those simple humans at the coffee shop would think if they could see him now.

  She removed her clothing and let the power of her guer overwhelm her. The subtle shifting of her bones, the stretch of growing muscle and the feel of energy building increased her sudden need for blood. She wanted to bite someone, to rake her claws through flesh until she found a warrior strong enough to tame her.

  “Oh yeah.” Jesse licked his lips, and she saw his erection grow as she stared at it. “Better run, Kate. ’Cause when I find you, I’m gonna fuck the fight right out of you.”

  Snarling at his challenge, she raced away, feeling Logan’s excitement inside her, spurring her on. But she didn’t feel Jesse as much, and that bothered her. Time to set that to rights.

  She raced through the acres of woods beyond their house, awash in the scents and sounds of the earth that filled her. Birds chirped, squirrels chattered. The light press of insects over the ground, of the occasional bug flying through the air. All of it registered, but none of it mattered as much as finally joining with her mates and taking down the last barriers between them.

  She knew Jesse would be the hardest to overcome. Logan had already admitted his love, and he breathed it in his heart and guer. She felt him inside her all the time, but not Jesse. She growled low at Jesse’s stubborn attitude. Time to break him of that. And with Logan’s help, she knew just the way to do it. Fuck the fight out of her? She didn’t think so.

  With a grin, she leaped over fallen trees, dodged branches and avoided the scent of distracting prey. Kate had better things to do than stalk deer. She had a Ravager to break in.

  Once at their meeting spot, Jesse blinked at Kate as he shifted back to full human. “So you want to watch me and Logan get it on?”

  The crafty gleam in her eyes warned him to beware. Of what, he wasn’t sure, exactly. “That’s right. I want to watch you fuck Logan.” She and Logan exchanged a glance and shifted into their human forms as well.

  Her heat swelled, enveloping the three of them in their own little world out in the forest. A flowing creek bordered their grassy bed on one side, while a group of large boulders prote
cted them from the winds that blew through the trees, knocking the leaves all around.

  Kate’s scent, and the sight of her wearing nothing but skin, had him hard in a heartbeat. And he wasn’t the only one. To Jesse’s dismay, he could feel Logan’s arousal echoing through his guer. Shit, it was back. By claiming them, Kate had truly joined them all together. He didn’t know how he felt about that.

  On the one hand, being a part of Logan and Kate was like breathing. Natural, right and necessary. But on the other hand, he wasn’t sure he could handle it. His parents had been mated, and they’d fought more with one another than with other packs or clans. The only thing that had saved them from outright killing each other, ironically enough, had been the arrival of the Dekken. The parasitic aliens had invaded the Ravager homeworld and sent them careening through the Voids as a last-ditch effort for survival. He’d been the only one to make it here to Cross Step.

  Jesse remembered enough about the past to be wary of the future. Rationally, he knew Cross Step was different. The Savage Clan respected mates and families. Prime’s pack seemed to get along. The few other packs he’d seen in town and at the compound coexisted peacefully. Mostly. But there were still instances of fights and rages that grew out of control, mostly within breeding packs.

  Pregnant females totally changed pack dynamics. A male’s protective instincts flared, his guer in a constant state of aggression to defend his vulnerable female. Then again, when dealing with Ravagers, control was usually the first thing to go during a fight.

  Fortunately, he and Logan had an understanding. Logan was his and had been for years. The smart-ass Ravager could make him laugh with little effort. And though they both liked to play around, Jesse knew he could count on Logan. He felt comfortable with their relationship. But Kate was a whole new ballgame. A female. A breedmate.

  The thought of his own young made his palms sweat. Fuck. He wasn’t ready for that, not yet.

  “Jesse?”

  Logan and Kate were looking at him with concern.

  “What?”

  “Kate wants to watch me fuck you,” Logan said quickly.

  Shake it off, dipshit. You’re killing the mood. Besides, it’s Kate’s first heat. No way she’ll conceive yet. “What?”

  “Kate wants you to show her how to submit.” The twinkle in Logan’s eyes warned him not to take Logan seriously.

  “Bullshit. She needs to watch me fucking you, that way she can see how it’ll be when she takes it up the ass.”

  Logan chuckled. “You’re such a charmer, Jesse. ‘Takes it up the ass’? How romantic.”

  Kate laughed. She looked between the two of them, her smile so heartfelt Jesse couldn’t help smiling back at her. “I never knew you two were into the D/s thing. Kinky.” She rubbed her hands over her body then over theirs, registering their arousal. “I like it.”

  Jesse growled. “You’ll love it when I do to you what I’m going to do to him.”

  “Jesse,” Logan warned, but Jesse knew Logan got off on submitting.

  “You want to know what it’s like, Kate?” Jesse pulled her closer for a kiss that made her even wetter. He could smell it. “Then come here, right next to me. And watch.”

  Kate obeyed without question, enthralled. And that easily, he was hers, wrapped around her little finger.

  “You know I don’t need lube with Logan. If he’s as aroused as he looks, he’ll be wet for me.” Built for sex, male Ravagers secreted a natural lubrication through the anus when aroused. “Logan, come here, on your knees and get me ready.”

  As if he needed help. But he wanted Kate to see it all, to know what he liked, what he wanted to see her do.

  Logan crawled to him and knelt between Jesse’s spread legs. Then he opened his mouth wide, ready for Jesse’s cock.

  “Put me in him, Kate.”

  Jesse’s heart raced as Kate grabbed his cock and squeezed him.

  “I love how hot you feel. You’re thick, Jesse.”

  “For you two,” he said on a breath and tried to find his famous control. “Push me between his lips.”

  Kate guided him to Logan’s mouth and watched as he entered.

  Logan immediately started sucking, and she released him as Jesse pushed the rest of the way in.

  “So sexy,” she whispered.

  “Touch yourself. Play with your clit,” he ordered. “Watch while I fuck his mouth. See how hard he is?”

  And Logan was hard. His dick was swollen, needing respite. Three long days had made Jesse twitchy, and he knew Logan had felt the same because his mate bitched about it from the time they’d dropped Kate off with Prime until this morning.

  Jesse gently thrust into Logan’s mouth, holding him by the hair as he tunneled his cock between soft lips. Then Logan added his tongue, making Jesse’s balls ache.

  “That’s good, Logan. Real good.” He glanced at Kate. Her shuttered eyes and breathy moans really turned him on. “Don’t come yet. Save it for us.”

  “O-kay.”

  “Logan, ease off. Turn around on your hands and knees.”

  Jesse knelt behind his mate, pleased when Kate knelt with him.

  “He’s so hard.” Kate reached a hand under Logan and made him groan. “His slit is wet.”

  “He’s easy,” Jesse teased.

  “Fuck you,” Logan breathed.

  “No, baby, first I fuck you.”

  “I like that. Call him baby while you do him. I want to watch you slide that fat cock inside him.”

  Hell, Kate was taking to this a little too well. Her arousal flooded his own. “Put your finger here.” He grabbed Kate’s hand and placed her fingers on Logan’s rim. “Push inside. Feel how wet and hot he is.”

  She inched her finger inside him and Logan moaned.

  “He’s wet. Like me.” Kate sounded surprised.

  “You haven’t touched a male like this before?”

  She blushed. “No. The few I was with mostly wanted inside me. And some of the humans I played with weren’t into anal.”

  A feral need to wipe the memories of those males from her mind had him growling. “Add another finger.”

  Kate eagerly complied, and Jesse watched as she pumped her fingers inside Logan, getting a feel for what he liked as their mate moaned his approval.

  “Now move back and watch Logan get pounded.” Jesse waited for her to step back then aligned his cock with Logan’s hole. He was thick and hungry, and he had no intention of being gentle. “First I like to tease him. Let the head just sit there.”

  “Bastard,” Logan growled and tried to shove himself back over Jesse.

  “See how frustrated he gets?” Jesse gripped Logan’s hips and stopped his movements. “I like to play, to wait.” He pushed another inch in, content when Logan shifted and sweat broke out over his back. “Then more.”

  Without warning, he shoved himself balls-deep into Logan’s ass.

  Kate gasped and Logan swore. But Jesse had only just begun.

  “Don’t stop touching yourself, Kate. Let’s see those ripe tits. Pinch them.”

  Her lust tasted sweet on the air, and he rocked into Logan in time with her pulsing desire. The hot grip Logan had on his cock pushed him to drive harder.

  “You’re so fucking hard,” Logan groaned. “I’m gonna come.”

  “No, hold it.” Jesse slapped Logan’s ass and stilled, though it went against every thought in his head to stop. Kate’s and Logan’s protests came from within him, and he felt Kate’s guer pushing at him. “Kate…”

  “Don’t stop, Jesse. Show me what to feel, what to do when you’re the one fucking me. When you’re the one coming inside my ass.”

  He thrust again, unable to stop himself. She needed him. Logan was frantic to feel him sliding deeper. He loved the slap of Jesse’s balls against his ass and the feel of his cum sliding down Logan’s thigh. Kate loved his taste, the salty-sweet cream that pulsed from his shaft. And she wanted to see him coming inside Logan.

  “Stop it. Get out of
my head,” he snarled as he took Logan harder. Ramming inside that fine ass, needing to unload his worries, his cum, his desire.

  “More,” Logan ground back, meeting Jesse thrust for thrust.

  Then Kate knelt behind Jesse and wrapped her arms around him. He felt her breasts against his back, her pussy against his ass. Her hands around the base of his cock as she held him while he pushed inside Logan.

  “Oh fuck.” He couldn’t stop the huge climax that burst over him from his balls to his brain. The pleasure resonated within all three of them, and Jesse had never felt freer, or more scared, than he did right now.

  “It’s okay.” Kate kissed his shoulders, his back, and trailed her lips back up to his neck. “My mate. My Ravager.” She caressed Logan’s thigh. “And my lover, who wants nothing more than to take me the same way, hmm, Logan?”

  Shit. Jesse had a hard time catching his breath. But he could feel Logan’s need like his own. “Do it,” he said thickly. “Ream her.”

  “I’m not going to last, but I’ll try to go easy on you,” Logan managed to say as he rose to his knees and pulled Kate forward. “Bend over.”

  His low growl seduced with passion. And Jesse took Kate’s place, watching and helping as Logan readied to take her ass.

  “First, get wet in her pussy,” Jesse murmured.

  “Oh yeah.” Logan groaned as he sank inside Kate in one swift push.

  “Oh!” Kate moaned. “That feels so good.”

  Jesse couldn’t wait until they took her at the same time. Her ass and pussy, fucking her while fucking each other through her, the perfect solution.

  “Yeah, now. I want it now,” Kate said, looking straight at him.

  “Use the stream,” Logan hissed at him as he fucked Kate. “And hurry the hell up.”

  Jesse quickly rinsed himself off in the stream, not at all surprised that he was ready to go again. Kate did something to him, made him need in a way only a Ravager female could. She didn’t lessen his desire for Logan, but she made him crave more than mere physical gratification. She made him want to love and be loved. Crazy thoughts, nonsense. Yet there they were, and they weren’t going away.

  He rejoined them and lay down next to them. “Get on.” He held his cock for Kate.
