“Little witch, the more you fight this the longer I’ll make you wait.”
I glare a pout at him and turn my head away on the pillow stilling my body but when his mouth captures one of my aching nipples I arch against him involuntarily and moan his name. His tongue lashes the sensitive peak causing a deep ache in my core before he moves to bestow the same treatment on the other one. By the time he makes it to my lips, I’m a quivering, panting ball of need. I plead with him as he nibbles and sucks on my lips.
“Bas, please…I n-need you. I ache…”
He smiles against my mouth. “You beg so prettily, how can I resist?”
He slides off of my body and with strong hands flips me over so my hands twist and my front hits the mattress. I moan as my sensitized nipples press against the blanket and his hot mouth trails down my spine. His hands grip my hips and lifts them up until my knees rest on the bed with my elbows supporting me. His fingers cup and squeeze my ass cheeks and when his teeth nip at them my whole body bucks. He spreads my thighs apart and lays down with his face under me so that his mouth can finally capture my aching center. Bas licks, sucks, and flicks every part of my soft, sensitive core and when his tongue spears into my opening again and again I give up all restraint and grind down to ride and fuck his face. After so much teasing it only takes seconds for the orgasm I’ve been on the edge of to take hold and blow through me. His tongue never stops spearing into me as he prolongs it as long as my body will allow.
When my muscles give out and I crash down to the bed he licks me from top to bottom one last time and slides out from between my legs. I’m fucking dead and gone from the heights of that one and don’t think I can take anymore. He soothes me with long soft sweeps of his hands up and down my back and ass and I just lay there in the afterglow of the best orgasm of my life, ready for a long nap. The sharp crack of his hand coming down on my ass has my traitorous pussy clenching for more, especially when he licks away the burn, causing me to moan in pleasure. Hard fingers pull my hips back up into the air and his knees knock mine further apart so I’m spread wide for him when I feel the big round head of his cock nudge against my opening. When he slides an inch into me, the burn of the stretch feels so damn good that I push back against him wanting more, wanting to feel him fill me completely. His fingers flex on my hips and dig in deeper before he slams his length balls deep inside of me and I’m howling.
“FUCK, YES!”
I’m a mindless animal as I buck and rock back at him to take him deeper, reveling in the slick burn of how tight I am around him and wishing I could see his face to see if he’s feeling the same sweet agony I am. His chest drops against my back with a growl in my ear as he reaches out and tugs on the fabric holding my wrists captive, releasing me. Holding me against him as he continues to thrust hard into me he sits us up onto our knees and his mouth latches on my neck.
“I need to taste you,” he growls. “Say yes. Say you want me to.”
There’s nothing I’ll say no to for this man.
“I’m yours, Sebastian. Yes, take what you want. Anything!”
The pain of his fangs sinking into my neck is only a brief flicker of pain before the spike of ecstasy consumes me and I scream for God, Satan, and the whole fucking continent to hear me as I shatter around his throbbing, jerking cock and we come together.
I either doze off or pass out because the next thing I’m aware of is being cradled against his chest with our legs tangled together and his lips pressed against my forehead. He’s somehow gotten us under the blankets and I feel warm, safe, and thoroughly fulfilled in all ways possible. I tilt my head back to meet his eyes and see so many emotions in them I can’t even begin to sort or understand them all. I have the same extreme range washing through me so I look away not ready to deal with them and put a pin in it for later.
I snuggle up closer to the deliciously hard warm body next to me and feel his cock hard and ready for another round pressing against my hip. Damn, I take stock to see if I’m even capable of hitting that again and after a moment decide, hell yeah, I am. Besides, turnabout is fair play and if anyone needs to have control taken away, it’s Sebastian. I grin evilly to myself and push him onto his back so I can straddle him. His brows shoot up and a small, smug smile tugs at his lips as he reaches for my breasts.
“Uh-uh, nope,” I tell him as I grab his wrists and push them over his head. “You had your turn. Now it’s mine and the more you fight this, the longer I’ll make you wait.” I sing-song his words back to him making him narrow his eyes at me and causing me to grin. “Make use of that iron control you’re famous for and keep those hands up there. Trust me, it’ll be worth it.” I tell him as I lower to his neck and kiss my way down to his chest and abs licking an outline of each ridged muscle and feel the thrill of his tremors. I settle between his legs and roll my eyes up to meet his as my tongue darts out to swipe the bead of pre-cum from the slit in his head. He jerks at the contact and his hands move to reach for me so I pull back with a cagey smile. “Uh-uh-uh, control yourself, Sebastian.”
He growls at me but does as I say so I reward him by taking his head into my mouth and gently swirl my tongue around it while sucking gently. His body shakes under me, making heat pool between my thighs and I can’t resist going deeper and taking as much of him as I can into my mouth. He roars and snatches me up from between his legs causing me to giggle but when he slams home deep into my cunt my laughter turns to moans.
Eden
When I wake in the morning, Sebastian is gone and my two wolves are pressed on either side of me. I stretch between them to ease some of the delicious aches that fill my body after a long night with Sebastian. Cade nuzzles at my shoulder and licks the faint bite mark he left on me causing a sweet glow to fill me. Finn sweeps hair back from my face and meets my eyes with love and tenderness.
“Morning, love. How are you feeling?”
I breathe the scent of them in and sigh wistfully. “Honestly? A little overwhelmed and a lot terrified.”
He frowns at that. “Why? We felt your pleasure last night many times. Did Bas do or say something to hurt you?”
“No, I…wait…you felt my pleasure? What does that mean?” I ask with narrowed eyes.
When he looks away with a hint of guilt I push away from him and Cade and sit up against the headboard with the blankets pulled up to cover my chest. Both of them scramble into seated positions in front of me.
“Finn, Cade? One of you had better start talking. How could you feel my pleasure?”
The wolves exchange a silent look causing me to growl at them so Cade jumps in with a cautious tone.
“Aye, well now, it’s the wee bite marks we left on your body, ya ken?”
I pin him with a look. “No, I don’t ken and don’t think for a minute I don’t ken what you’re doing by thickening your accent. Just because you know it makes me hot doesn’t mean you can use it to manipulate me. Now, what about the bite marks?”
He shoots me a devilish grin. “It’s a shifter custom to mark our mate. When Finn and I bit you during our lovemaking it bonded us to you.”
Finn reaches for my hand and brings it to his lips. “The bond lets us feel any strong emotions you have and it will only get stronger as time goes on.”
My eyes dart back and forth between them as I process that. I’m a little bit in awe that they feel so strongly for me to do such a thing and also a little bit annoyed that there wasn’t any conversation around such an intimate action.
“So when you like a woman, you bite her during sex and you get to feel her pleasure as well as your own? How does that work out if you stop being with her, like if you break up?” I ask in confusion. “I mean, can you imagine feeling your ex get her rocks off with her new guy?”
Cade’s expression turns more serious than I’ve ever seen it and he grabs my free hand.
“No, lass. Not women we have sex with, just our mate, just you and there is no break up as you say. The bond…the bond is for life.”
“Three days! I was only here for three days before we…before you…oh my God! Are you two insane? I’ve taken longer to pick out a Netflix movie to watch and you two decided after three days that I was your mate…for life?”
A defiant look fills Cade’s eyes. “Three minutes or three days, it dinnae matter! We felt that you were our missing piece. Neither one of us ever hoped we would find our mate so when we felt the tug we locked it down. You can be angry all you want, Eden, but we willna let you go!”
I lunge toward him and grab a handful of his shirt, balling it in my fist. “Don’t yell at me you asshole! I never said I wanted you to let me go!” I let go of his shirt and lean back with a huff. “All I’m saying is it was fast and maybe a conversation with your supposed mate might have been in order before you locked it down.” I look to Finn. “What will happen if whatever brought me here sucks me back to my own time? Is that something you ever even thought of?” I ask sadly.
He cups my cheek and brushes his thumb over my lips before whispering, “Then we’ll wait three hundred and sixty-one years to get you back. We’d wait ten lifetimes for you, lass. We’d fight time herself to keep you.”
This time when I lunge forward it’s to capture his sweet lips in a soul-searing kiss. My other hand flashes out and pulls Cade towards us so I can turn and show him the same love. When I break the kiss, I hold onto them so all three of our foreheads are touching and breathe out the words swelling inside of me.
“I love you. I love you so much it hurts and that’s what terrifies me. I’m so scared of losing any of you. How does one woman hold so much love for four men and how do I live without it if something goes wrong?”
Cade rubs a hand up and down my back. “You trust us. Trust that all four of us will do whatever it takes to keep you no matter what year we find ourselves in. The fates brought you here to complete our pack and nothing will ever change that. You own our hearts and souls and nothing can take that away. Time be damned.”
Finn is the first to pull back and gently wipe the tears from my cheeks. “We brought your cloak for you, love, and a bath is waiting for you in your room. Go and tend to yourself and join us in the breakfast room. Luca is anxious to see you as well.”
I lay back on Sebastian’s bed for a few moments once they leave, trying to process all the emotions swirling inside of me and imagine spending the rest of my life with the four men who have captured my mind, body, and heart. So much has changed in the last month since coming here. I can’t even imagine going back to the life I had or the woman that I was.
I know deep in my soul that this is exactly where I’m supposed to be so with a sigh of happiness and acceptance I bounce out of the bed and slide my bathrobe on, gather the cape from the floor and the jewels tossed carelessly aside and take them all back to my room to put away properly.
I bathe and dress quickly, eager to see all four of my men…and coffee. I’m feeling beautiful and loved so I slide a pretty gown of cream brocade with red ribbons on and pop my head out the door to ask Claudette to lace me up but find a new girl I haven’t met before waiting in the hall. She quickly gets the gown laced up for me and I breathe deeply, happy I skipped the corset. I braid the top half of my hair into a crown and just because they are so damn pretty slide the ruby mini daggers into the braids so the jeweled handles look like hair combs. I thank the new girl but she doesn’t speak any English so I just give her a happy wave and head out to find my guys and coffee.
I only make it halfway down the hallway before a hand reaches out and drags me into an alcove and I land against a broad, hard chest. I’m turned and pushed against the wall with Sebastian’s muscular arms caging me in and his hot mouth pressed against mine. My knees give out from the brutal assault he wages with his lips and tongue and when he finally pulls back, I’m gasping for breath and wishing he’d take me right here against the wall. A laugh spills out of me at how quickly my body responds to these men and I can’t help but tease him.
“Your Grace! How scandalous. What will the servants think?”
He tips my head to the side to nuzzle at my neck, sending shivers down my body straight to my core and growls, “Toss the servants, how do you think they will react if I spread you out on the breakfast table and sample your sweet cunt for my meal?”
An instant image of him doing just that has wet heat filling my panties. I tip my head back further as he runs his mouth over the tops of my breasts that are pushed up from the gown and marvel at how this man plays my body like an instrument. My fingers thread into his hair and I tug so he’s looking up at me intending to tell him how badly I want him even after spending the entire night in his arms but what I see in his eyes chokes the words to a stop.
It isn’t just desire I see but also a fierce, possessive love shining through. My heart surges in response. How is this even possible? Yes, the sex was insanely amazing but this man has run hot and cold with me from the moment I got here. Attraction is one thing but love? Can I really be in love with him too? My heart is screaming at my rational brain that it wants what it wants so fuck right off and I just give in and let myself fall. My hands slide from his hair to cup his strong jaw and the words just slip out. “Sebastian, I love you.”
He rocks back like I just set off a bomb and says something in Greek that sounds like a curse before his mouth lands on mine again but this time it’s an achingly sweet kiss that makes my knees weak for a different reason besides passion. His forehead rests against mine so I see every gold fleck in his gorgeous cinnamon-colored eyes and all the truth as well.
“If I had a soul, it would belong to you. I will love you for the rest of your days and all the hellish days I’ll have to live without you.”
My heart swells and aches at the same time from his words. To have not just one but four men love me this way is a gift beyond belief but he’s referenced me not living as long as they will before and I can’t help but feel like this love will someday be turned into a curse for them. He must read something in my expression though because he pulls back and goes to say something but changes his mind and just kisses me again. A small squeak of surprise by a maid passing through the hall has me jerking and then bursting out into a fit of giggles. With a last kiss, Bas pulls me out of the alcove and escorts me down to the breakfast room.
Cade, Finn, and Luca are already at the table and rise when we enter the room. My wolves have their customary grins in place when they see Sebastian and my fingers twined together but my eyes go straight to Luca and I bite my lip worrying how he will respond to this latest development. Any worries I have wash away at the love I see in his eyes as he nods briefly towards us with the softest smile lighting up his face.
I take my seat and look at each one of them and wonder how someone like me who a month ago had very little reason to want to keep living could now have four men who love me and a future I can’t wait to live. So, I sit and sip my coffee with a glow of happiness surrounding me and think about my men. Luca, my quiet tortured love who was so full of despair and self-loathing that he couldn’t bear to be touched. Only two days ago he allowed me to undress him and kiss, suck and nibble every inch of his body on a canvas sheet that was spread out on the floor of his studio. It was a wild raw love I saw in his eyes as he clenched my hair in his fist while I took him in my mouth and refused to stop until his hot seed poured down my throat.
Cade and Finn, their matching grins that are so similar, hide how different they are the more I come to know them. Cade has a quicker temper that flares hot where Finn is the peacemaker. Cade loves to catch me alone and get me wet with dirty filthy words whispered in my ear before fucking me hard and fast against the nearest hard surface. Finn prefers to take his time and toy with my body until I beg for his cock and only then will let me find my release. Alone they make me pant with desire but when they
come together to love my body it’s an explosion of lustful desire that leaves me shattered in pleasure. But it’s the constant touches, smiles, and looks that show me their constant love.
My eyes swing to Sebastian as I finish my coffee. He’s so rigid in his control over his emotions and even before last night, I caught glimpses of the feelings he tried to hide from me. He tries to mask how he feels with ice but I know our love will be filled with heat and passion as I push back against his iron control and melt all the ice walls he’s constructed. This love is still new but I can imagine it being the most volatile of the four with the battles we will have.
“What about you, Eden?” He asks me, breaking me out of my internal musings.
“I’m sorry, what was that?”
A small smug smile tugs at his lips as if he knows what I was thinking about.
“We are discussing the Marquis soirée. I was not able to speak with him due to our abrupt departure. I was just saying that I thought I sensed another of my kind there for a brief moment but it was gone too fast to be sure. Did you happen to see anything untoward while we were there?”
His eyes have a gleam of amusement as my cheeks redden with a deep blush at the memories of all that I saw and experienced at that party. I shoot him a pointed look before shaking my head.
“You mentioned that the…entertainers may have been under a sexual intoxication similar to how I was after drinking Luca’s blood but other than that I didn’t see anyone walking around with fangs and red eyes.”
