Settler's Mine 2: The Lovers

by Mechele Armstrong

  "Hey, unless we play a game of space letters, how do you wanna pass the time? We still have a while before we even get close to the mine. There will always be some peril that we’re in, even onboard the mine. And what better way to take our minds off the danger than a little activity?"

  Bren had a point on the inaction. Despite needing to be at the mine now, they couldn't speed up the shuttle's journey much. They had to ride it out. Couldn't do much until they arrived at Settler's. "How are we going to get on the mine anyway? Gemini isn't going to just let us in willingly."

  "Let me worry about that. I've already got a plan in mind. Plus, I think he will let us onboard. He's that arrogant an SOB." She leaned down. "I think Bren's got a point. We need to have our stuff together when we get to the mine. We need to be as one."

  They would have to be. To take the mine back and rip off Gemini's hold on anything there. What better way to increase their cohesiveness than to be fully together as mates? "What do you two have in mind?" He licked his lips. Couldn't wait to find out what they wanted to do.

  * * * * *

  Bren looked across at both his mates. Delectable. He pushed Zelda back in her chair. She needed this. Needed to get her mind off what was going on at the mine. They couldn’t stop things until they arrived.

  And stop it they would. He’d take Gemini out for causing so much misery.

  He put away those thoughts for now. Nothing he could do about them. Instead, he’d give Zelda and Amory something to think about beyond the crisis. He pulled down the zipper to Zelda’s shirt with a rasp.

  She lay back comfortably as her breasts became exposed. Heavy with dark-tipped nipples, they perked out under his gaze.

  Bren reached to them with a reverent hand, grazing the back across them.

  Amory reached for her pants before drawing his hand back.

  “Why stop?” Zelda asked, her voice husky with desire.

  Emboldened, Amory reached for the button and zipper again on Zelda’s black leathers. His hand trembled as he got them undone.

  So hesitant, yet he’d come so far with them. Amory would come into his own as their mate. He already showed signs. Bren looked down at Amory’s intent face. His other mate. These were the two he’d spend the rest of his life with. Nothing in life had prepared him for that. But his thanks would be shouted to the Fates forever.

  Zelda’s breath hitched as Bren continued to explore her breasts, taking his time and touching her all over.

  Amory pulled her up, so Bren stopped to facilitate Amory sliding her pants over her slim legs.

  Zelda took the opportunity to shrug the shirt off her silken shoulders. “You two have me naked. No fair.”

  Bren chuckled. “All’s fair in sex.”

  Amory looked up at him. “I thought it was all’s fair in love and war.”

  That sobered them all.

  Amory winced. “Guess I shouldn’t have said that.”

  The coming war would be a difficult challenge for them. But one they’d come through. Bren hadn’t come this far to lose either of his mates now.

  Zelda smiled. She lifted her head high. “We will make it out of this. We won’t lose our mine. Or our minds. Or anything else.” She lifted her eyebrows. “But now, I think it’s about time you two lost clothes.”

  After standing up, Bren pulled at his garments so fast he almost tore the button off his pants. He’d been waiting for this so long. His cock hung heavy and swollen. Needy for his mates.

  Amory hesitated as he unbuttoned his shirt. Couldn’t seem to decide what to take off first. He pulled the shirt over his head. Hesitated again at his pants.

  Bren stepped behind Amory. He stroked his hands all over Amory’s muscular back. The man might be trim, but he had well defined muscles.

  Amory leaned back into him, the top of his pants undone, but they remained zipped and up.

  Bren’s hands went to his chest, running over and over the man’s pecs and upper stomach, drawn to the dips and the smoothness of the skin.

  Zelda slipped to her knees in front of Amory. Her head bobbed as she leaned down.

  Bren peered over Amory’s shoulder to catch a glimpse of a spectacular sight.

  Zelda was easing down the zipper to the pants with her teeth. The white tips gleamed against the metal tab.

  When the pants loosened, Bren peeked again to see Amory’s cock edge out of the top of the pants.

  Amory shuddered when Zelda’s head moved forward.

  Bren wrapped arms around him, pulling him further back until Amory relaxed against him. The pants fell to his feet.

  In the harsh fluorescent lights of the shuttle, he watched Amory’s face go slack and then tighten with everything Zelda did to him.

  Bren arched himself into Amory, rubbing his cock against Amory’s ass. So good. Both the feel of the man in front of him and the imagined images from what Zelda would be doing in front of Amory. Gods, he needed this. To be with his mates, no holding back. To be as one unit, together.

  Amory’s hips pistoned in and out, putting his ass right against Bren’s cock. Amory’s ass rested about the right height to come back fully against him.

  The feel of the butt slapping his skin was almost more than Bren could take. Inside. He needed to be inside. First, he needed to do more for his other mate. Zelda he couldn’t reach, but he sure could Amory.

  Bren kept his body against Amory’s but leaned over to a drawer where Zelda had stashed some things. Finding the tiny bottle of lube, he opened it with his teeth. Poured some on his fingers and pressed them to the crack of Amory’s ass.

  Amory jerked.

  Bren soothed him, carefully pressing his hands against the man’s chest. What a flat stomach Amory had. All the better for Bren to snack on soon. He nipped the side of Amory’s neck, kissing gently the spot where his teeth had abraded Amory’s skin.

  Soon as Amory had settled, Bren put his index finger in to press inside the rounded opening. He took it slow, working his finger in as gently as he could. Taking his time and stretching the tight hole. Time spent now would pay off later. But as the flesh clutched at the finger and he heard the noises Zelda made, that was hard to keep in mind. Bren ground his teeth together, pulling on his patience.

  Soon as Amory had grown accustomed to the one, Bren added a finger. In and out, those two dipped into Amory.

  Bren’s whole body tensed with the efforts. Had to make this right. Air panted in and out of his mouth like a speeding shuttle.

  Zelda continued at the front of the young man. She seemed to be pulling away, then taking him to the root within her mouth.

  At least from the glimpses Bren sneaked every now and then. Seeing his mates together like this inflamed him.

  His third finger pressed into Amory’s opening. In and out, they ducked in, stretching, making the room needed for Amory to take something bigger.

  The moment Bren had been waiting for was almost at hand. Time to drive himself into Amory’s depths and take the man.

  Amory let out a groan.

  He was close. Now, Bren needed to act.

  He didn’t waste any time. Wanted to be in Amory before the orgasm took him over the edge. Ride him before the afterglow set in.

  He pressed Amory forward a little. Just enough to get his ass perfectly lined up with Bren’s cock. Bren dumped a large squirt of lube down into Amory’s hole.

  Was this happening? Bren shook his head. So many dreams about doing this with his mates. And now, it had come to pass. If only this moment could last forever. The three of them together and only the three. Alone and tucked away from the world.

  Zelda hunkered down even lower, keeping her head with Amory’s hips, so that she could keep her mouth on him.

  Amory let out a deeper moan. The sound echoed from the walls.

  Bren struck, pressing his tip into the entrance to Amory’s ass. Muscles clenched around him as he stopped at the barely-in position, letting Amory adjust. Didn’t want to hurt him but damn, the feel of the man aroun
d him, made him want to drive himself to the hilt. Yet, he held himself back until he felt the slightest relaxation of Amory’s body.

  Steadying himself, Bren dove in more, then pulled back out, only to go a little further. Repeating the motion, the next downturn lodged himself fully within Amory.

  Such a wonderful sensation, encased within his lover.

  Amory’s ass muscles clenched around him as his entire body went into a ball of tension, readying himself for the orgasm to come.

  Bren gritted his teeth against the urge to pound, keeping his strokes simple and slow. Wait for the moment.

  When Amory threw his head back against him in abandon, lost in his own climax, Bren increased the harshness of his thrusts. He couldn’t hold back any longer. Needed to go fast. Furious. Take his own pleasure within the backdoor of Amory’s body. Needed to join with him in a dance older than the galaxies.

  Amory’s grunts spurred him on to new heights. Such pleasure in the sounds his lover made.

  Bren took pleasure in every movement, every sound. He’d never been closer to another man as he was to Amory at that moment. They’d joined in the best way possible. Emotion centered in Bren’s chest, constricting it and sending him into the oblivion.

  When the climax struck, Bren’s eyes flashed stars. Lights flashed before his eyes. His body wrung out the climax like it was an old rag.

  All three heartstones glimmered in the shuttle.

  Bren didn’t have to see them to know the glow. He could sense their glimmers even without his eyes.

  Amory would have fallen, but Bren managed to hold them both up. He extricated himself from Amory’s ass as carefully as he could.

  A final shudder wracked Amory as Bren pulled completely free.

  Zelda licked her lips, looking up at them. With her love reflecting in her eyes. She licked her top lip, as though she didn’t want a drop of Amory’s cum to go to waste. “Well, you two do know how to give distraction.”

  Bren centered Amory so that he could stand on his own two feet and stood to his full height. His knees still knocked from the orgasm. But his lady hadn’t gotten much out of that deal. She’d had her fun with her mouth, but no climax of her own. Not the way he played their time together.

  He grabbed her, picking her up.

  Her eyes frosted with icy piss and vinegar. “Put me down.”

  He tossed her on the shuttle bunk, where they should have had their tryst. None of their minds had been thinking of waiting, but Zelda’s knees would probably ache from the length of time she’d spent on them. He’d rub them once this whole thing was over and done with. “There you go.”

  “Bren.”

  “You said to put you down.” He climbed up on the bed straddling her legs with his body. “I did.”

  “We should…” She continued to sit up rather than lying down.

  He held a finger to her lips, pressing the pad against the words bubbling out of her. “You need your own pleasure.”

  She lowered her head. Her lips escaped his finger so she could speak. “But we should check…”

  “We’d hear anyone call us.” The alarm was on a loud ring. “The only one who would is Clyde, right? And it would have to be important. We’re still a ways away from the mine. Time for your fun.”

  The bed dipped as Amory joined them. “I agree with that. Whole-heartedly. After what you gave me, you need to have some of your own.” He slipped over them both, stretching his legs out alongside Zelda’s.

  She narrowed her eyes at Bren, before shaking back her hair. “Bren, you aren’t taking me until you wash up.”

  Bren nodded. “I know.” He reached over to procure a space wipe, good for cleansing without water.

  Amory’s cock puffed out again, standing up at attention. His eyes lit up. “Guess I’m ready for round two.” A boyish look lit his face, like he’d found a new piece of candy.

  Bren chuckled as he wiped himself off. Nothing like a man discovering that his cock worked correctly. “I think Amory’s already up for round two.” Desire crackled down deep within. Round two of being together with his mates.

  Mates he could lose.

  His throat pulled together. No. He’d not lose them. Not now or ever. Too much had worked upon him to find these two people for his life. He’d not lose them before they’d even begun.

  Zelda sat up to grab the wipe from him. She’d read his face, probably known his thoughts. She usually did. “Let me finish.”

  Under her knowing hands, his erection blossomed. He shoved into her hand as she cupped him before coming to his senses. “Dammit, Z.” He pushed her hands away. “I’m supposed to be doing something to you right now.”

  Her eyes challenged him with lively sparks in their brown depths. “And what would that be?”

  “This.” He pressed her backward and after a moment’s resistance she went over on her back. He attacked her pussy, licking and scraping with teeth. Such honey sprang from within. He loved her taste. The way she whimpered and moaned. So shitting expressive, much like he was discovering Amory was, too. As cool as Zelda was outside the bedroom, get her inside, and she let it all hang out.

  Zelda made a noise that caused him to look up from his wandering mouth. Her eyes had closed tightly.

  Amory had joined them, not just by position, but with action. He sucked and kissed Zelda’s breasts. As sensitive as they were, to have one man at her pussy and one there, it wouldn’t be long before she’d come.

  Bren grinned into her. He’d hold her out as long as he could. Make things good for his woman. Least he could do after all she’d given to him.

  After all, she’d given him Amory. A woman’s stone selected her mates, so the saying went.

  And she’d given him eons of pleasures in his life, from the very beginning. Nothing but the best existed in his heart for Zelda. And for Amory.

  She writhed under them both, bucking up her hips. Her legs straightened, even as she tried to push her pelvis against Bren’s mouth to make him go where she wanted.

  Bren didn’t press in, keeping his tongue light and slight despite her efforts. Kept evading her hip’s push for more, lengthening her pleasures. Didn’t suck her clit into his mouth or grind his tongue against her.

  Before long, her hands bunched up in the sheets. “Bren.” She puffed out a breath. “Amory. Do it.” She let out a growl.

  She was ready. Ready to give him her all. So Bren gave her what she needed by sucking her clit between his lips like he’d whistle a tune on bit of flesh.

  Her whole body quaked under him as her first orgasm hit her with a vengeance. She cried out forcefully.

  Panting, her body stopped twitching. She lay there, thinking they were done with her now that she’d had a moment of pleasure.

  Not likely. She deserved this and so much more.

  Bren tapped Amory on the shoulder. “Switch.”

  Zelda opened her eyes to stare up at them, having overheard them but not understanding. “Huh?”

  “Switch time.”

  “Oh, Goddess…”

  Amory moved down on the bed with a wide, face splitting grin.

  Bren moved up to Amory’s position at her chest before he laved a peaked nipple. She’d be screaming to her goddess before the shuttle ride was through.

  * * * * *

  Amory ran his tongue across Zelda’s pussy as she threw back her head. Her taste would have brought him to his knees had he been standing. Sweet honey. He tongued in deep to press into her clit, rubbing it around. One finger slipped into her slick pussy, pressing inside. Quickly another one joined the first to fill her up.

  She writhed under his mouth.

  He flicked her back and forth before pinching the tip of clit between his teeth. Then, he sucked her inside.

  She screamed, but he didn’t stop.

  He wanted to push her to her limits.

  She convulsed around his fingers.

  He lifted his head to look at her.

  Flush and sweat covered the body
of his goddess. Bren had one hand on her breast and his mouth on a nipple.

  Amory swallowed with a harsh sound. Nothing could excited him more than seeing his mates together like this.

  Well, except being there with them.

  His head dipped to run a tongue along her slit.

  Her foot kicked out into his leg.

  Suckling her again, he pressed in a third finger.

  Another scream.

  They’d taken her over the edge another time, before she said in a hoarse voice, “Need you.”

  Both Bren and Amory lifted their heads.

  “Need who?” Bren leaned down to flick her nipple with his tongue and her whole body shook.

  “Both of you.”

  Bren nodded to Amory as he helped Zelda flip up on her side. He motioned for Amory to get in front of her.

  “You’re going to take her back there?”

  Bren nodded. Then, he winked. “It’s not the first time.” He grabbed the half full bottle of lube.

  Amory climbed up the bed to position himself in front of Zelda.

  She smiled as she pulled him closer to her body.

  Their skin rubbed together.

  Both of them hissed.

  Amory felt as though his skin was staticky, like a cat whose fur had been rubbed backward.

  His cock jerked.

  She reached down to guide him into her body, but she suddenly jerked and gasped. Her breath caught at the back of her throat.

  Bren was doing things to her from behind. Had he penetrated her yet? Amory couldn’t see. But he’d try and gauge her reactions so he timed it about the same. They’d take her together. Between them.

  A shiver raced along his spine. His heart pounded.

  He was having a threesome with his mates. Mates he’d never thought he’d find. What a whirlwind of a day it had been.

  His only regret in positioning was that he couldn’t see Bren touching her. Taking her. But he had a fine view.

  Zelda.

  A glance down let him peruse her breasts. And his cock heading for the moment of penetration.

  He slipped forward, and his cock breeched her opening. Slow. He’d ease himself in slowly for both their sakes. His orgasm hadn’t taken away enough of the edge. This had to be a special moment. And he’d do anything to make it last for her.
