Twin Dragons

by S. E. Smith

  He cupped her breast in his left hand and continued to tease her taut nipples. Her body arched as he toyed with the right nipple, then the left again. Releasing her lips, he ran his lips along her jaw before he rose back up to look at her.

  Her parted lips begged for him. His cock pulsed with the need to feel her wrapped around him. He glanced down at Calo, who continued to stretch her.

  “Is she ready?” He asked in a strained voice. “I can’t wait any longer.”

  “Yes!” Melina moaned, wrapping her heels around Calo’s waist. “She is ready. She is more than ready.”

  Cree released her hands as Calo slid his fingers from her body and gripped her hips. He rose his knees on the bed as Calo slid off the edge of it. A sense of growing urgency swept through him as he felt another wave building inside Melina as she restlessly moved on the thin covers. Calo flipped Melina over onto her stomach before pulling her up onto her hands and knees.

  Wrapping his hand in her hair, Cree waited until she stared up at him. Her eyes were dilated, the pupils changing from round to an elongated shape. A soft pant escaped her as her lips parted.

  “Now,” Cree groaned as her eyes widened and she started to stiffen.

  Calo aligned his throbbing cock to her slick vaginal channel. The bulbous head of his cock, damp with his own semen, mixed with her desire. He was held mesmerized as he pushed into her. His own breath came in heavy pants the further he impaled his cock into her.

  “Goddess, she is so tight around me,” he hissed as his fingers tightened on her hips.

  “Calo,” Melina whimpered, still staring up into Cree’s eyes. “I hurt. The heat… it is burning me up.”

  Cree refused to release her gaze. He touched her bottom lip with his thumb, stroking it back and forth. A soft rumble escaped him when she sucked it into her mouth.

  “So do we,” Calo murmured as he paused for just a split second, waiting for the crest of the heat. “Embrace the heat inside you, Melina. Embrace it and return it to us.”

  Take her now, Cree demanded.

  Yes! Calo hissed as he pushed forward until he was buried deep inside her. He leaned forward, holding still as fire licked up the length of him. Goddess, Cree! I can feel her body changing as it accepts me.

  Cree pulled his thumb out of Melina’s mouth as she closed her eyes and groaned at Calo’s invasion. A shudder went through her body before she began rocking back and forth. Each time moving faster and faster as the need to come became a frantic craving.

  “Open for me,” Cree demanded in a hoarse voice. “Look at me as you take me.”

  Melina’s eyes fluttered open. Her lips parted as he pressed his cock against them. The touch of her tongue as she swiped over the pearled come beading the tip was one of the most erotic sights he had ever seen, second only to watching her accept his brother.

  “Dragon’s Balls, Cree,” Calo muttered, watching as Melina opened for Cree and slowly accepted him as he pressed forward. “She is beautiful.”

  “Yes, she is,” Cree agreed hoarsely.

  The faint shadow of luminescent green scales rippled along the curve of her shoulders and back. This was a sight he had never expected to see. Their true mate was being born right before their eyes!

  “Cree,” Calo muttered, watching the transformation as well. “She is magnificent.”

  “Yes, she is,” Cree agreed hoarsely, she rocked forward, taking more of his shaft into her hot mouth. “Oh Goddess!”

  Cree fought to keep his eyes open as Melina’s hot mouth slid along the length of his cock. He wound his hands into her hair and held her tightly as he rocked his hips. Each stroke went deeper. He could feel the light scrape of her teeth, but it was what she was doing with her tongue that was driving him insane.

  Each time he pulled out, she would wrap her tongue around the edge of it and tease the slit with the tip. A low hiss escaped him as she tilted her head, trying to take more of his shaft. He pushed as far as he could into her mouth without choking her. The sight of her sucking on him, pulling him deeper and deeper into her mouth pulled a deep groan from him that echoed through the room.

  His eyes moved down the curve of her back. Calo was holding her hips and driving into her with strong, powerful thrusts that pushed her forward onto him. He watched as the scales rippled across Calo’s chest. His brother was not immune to the sight of Melina sucking on his cock. The combination of both the physical and visual claiming shattered his control. Throwing his head back, he roared in triumph as he came.

  *.*.*

  Melina felt like she was about to explode. Between the fire scorching her in waves of hot lava, to the combined attack on her body, she was like a fragile piece of spun glass falling through the air. Before Calo surged forward, impaling her with his thick cock, she thought it impossible for her body to feel any more pleasure. As he pulled back and forth deep inside her now, it was as if every inch of him was caressing her. She could feel the slight catch of his cock as it pressed against the sensitive tissue of her vaginal wall.

  A sense of completeness filled the emptiness that had been slowly eating away at her since she first met them. The growing hunger, a feeling that she had never experienced before, had plagued her making her achy and restless. Her body acted like it knew exactly what it wanted, what it needed, and sought to take it without reservation.

  “Open for me,” Cree’s deep voice demanded.

  She didn’t completely understand what he wanted, but she instinctively followed his command. When he touched her lips with his cock, an explosion of flavor sent her senses spiraling out of control. A hunger for more had her lips parting wider.

  When she heard his low moan, she knew she wanted to give him as much pleasure as she was receiving. Swirling her tongue over the tip, she teased, tormented, and sucked until she knew every intimate inch of him. She also found the more she pleasured him, the wetter and hotter she got. Tilting her hips up even higher, she opened herself up even further for Calo’s pleasure.

  The double assault on her senses and the rush of heat coursing through her caused her body to tighten to the point she thought she would catch on fire. Instead, she exploded around both men. Her throat worked around the cock in her mouth as she pushed backwards against Calo as wave after delicious wave burst from her.

  Both men’s loud curses filled the air. Cree’s hand tightened in her hair as he leaned forward enough to grab her right breast in his other hand. A choked scream escaped her as the heat crashed over her at the same time as Calo’s thin hold snapped and he released his pulsing jet of semen deep into her womb.

  “Melina!” Calo hissed as he pushed into her as far as he could go. His long fingers bit into the tender flesh of her hips as his body jerked in time with both their releases. “Goddess, I’m dying of pleasure.”

  A sense of triumph filled her when she heard Cree’s hoarse yell. She knew he was watching as Calo emptied himself into her. She could feel Calo shattering as he came. Cree’s eyes drooped, but he refused to close them as he watched her drink his come. Her delicate throat worked up and down as she sucked on him.

  Something moved deep inside her. It felt almost as if something had been asleep and was suddenly awakened from its slumber. Her skin tingled and felt alien, as if she were somehow being transformed.

  I am, she thought as she embraced both men. I am being transformed from a girl to a woman.

  A low moan ripped from her throat as Cree slowly pulled away from her. She opened her mouth to protest, but the protest died on her lips as her eyes widened in surprise. The waves of heat that she thought would die after they made love to her hit her again, this time with an intensity that took her breath away for several long seconds.

  “What is happening?” She finally choked out. “The heat… It is coming again.”

  “This is just the beginning, Melina,” Calo said in a soft voice. “We have just begun.”

  Melina closed her eyes as he pulled from her body and rolled her over. She opened her eyes and
stared up at the ceiling, noticing that it appeared to be sharper, clearer than she remembered. Her legs fell apart as Cree moved between them. A small smile curved her lips as the warmth of their touch surrounded her.

  So this is what nirvana feels like, she thought as she gave herself over to their masterful touch.

  Chapter 22

  Melina blushed as she ran the soft wash cloth over her tender breasts. She was still weaving back and forth between disbelief and a sense of unreality. What happened last night felt almost like it had been a dream. If it wasn’t for the fact that her whole body was buzzing, sensitive, and a little sore, she would have thought that she had dreamed up the entire thing.

  “I hope Harry brings his shotgun,” she muttered as she rested her head against the tile. “I’m going to shoot me two aliens.”

  “That sounds… painful,” a husky voice said on the other side of the glass door.

  Melina didn’t even bother turning her head. She didn’t even care that she was naked and he was standing on the other side of the doors staring at her. After last night, there was no such thing as modesty.

  “I hate you,” she mumbled. “I hate you. I hate Calo. I hate myself.”

  The door opened and the water shut off. She resisted at first, but finally allowed him to turn her around. She pressed her lips into a tight line and glared at him when he tilted her chin up so he could look at her.

  “Why?” Cree asked quietly.

  “Right now, just because,” she answered wearily. “What happened last night… it shouldn’t have happened. I don’t know how it did, but it shouldn’t have.”

  Cree’s eyes darkened to a dark, dark gold as he ran his thumb over her pouting bottom lip. Regret pierced him, but he pushed it away. He had learned that regret was a wasted emotion that proved to create an empty shell around a mind.

  “It was meant to be. You were meant for us,” Cree said with a stubborn light in his eyes. “You are a miracle to us.”

  Melina pulled her chin away and reached for the towel beside them and wrapped it around her. She didn’t feel like a miracle. She felt, strange and edgy, like there was something moving inside her trying to get out. She just wanted to be left alone so she could figure out what happened and come to terms with her own feelings.

  “I’m not ready to be anyone’s miracle right now,” Melina said with a sigh. “I… I need some time alone.”

  A low rumble of disapproval burst from his dragon before he could stop it. He knew his dragon was impatient to see his mate, but he didn’t think that Melina was ready to accept all the changes that had happened last night just yet. He cursed when she turned and raised her eyebrow at him.

  “Melina,” he started to say, but stepped back when her eyes flashed with fire and she poked her finger into his chest.

  “No,” she bit out in a low voice. “This is not open for discussion. I said I need some time alone. Not that I want it. I need it, damn it. I am not used to being around others. I like my space. I need my space. Now, get out so I can get dressed in peace.”

  Cree stared in shock as the bathroom door closed with a resounding thump. He hadn’t even been aware that she was slowly backing him out the door until she closed the door in his face. A frown creased his brow, as he tried to understand what just happened.

  Want mate, his dragon grumbled.

  That’s what got us into the mess we’re in right now, Cree replied as he stared at the closed door.

  *.*.*

  “No,” Melina said firmly, picking up her hat and placing it on her head.

  “Melina,” Calo said in exasperation.

  Melina turned and glared at him. “I said ‘No’. That means ‘No’.”

  “You cannot expect us to just let you go off,” Cree injected in a fierce voice. “You should not be alone.”

  “I won’t be alone. Harry will be there,” Melina said, looking at Harry, who was doing his best to look like the wallpaper on the dining room wall. “I can’t drive. I haven’t driven a vehicle since I was fifteen. If I could, I’d go alone.”

  “Now, wait just a minute,” Harry protested. “Cal was like family. I deserve to be there at least.”

  Melina closed her eyes and counted to ten before she opened them again. Tears of frustration glimmered in them, but didn’t fall. She clenched her jaw and picked up the urn sitting on the shelf in the dining room.

  “Neither one of you can go, Cree. It is too dangerous,” Melina said in a low voice. “I can’t… It would be safer for you here. It is going to be difficult enough without having to worry if someone sees the two of you. Please.” She turned and looked at Cree and Calo with tortured eyes. “I won’t be gone long. We’ll have a private service, then go to town so I can pick up a few things. It will only be a couple of hours at the most.”

  “You do not need to go to your town,” Calo muttered, running his hand over his stomach. “We will be returning to the Horizon when you return.”

  Anger brightened Melina’s eyes. She wasn’t going to be bullied by either man. It was time they realized that she made her own decisions.

  “If you need to return to the Horizon, go,” she replied in a quiet, emotionless voice.

  “Melina,” Calo protested in a hoarse voice. “You do not understand.”

  “No. You don’t understand,” Melina interrupted in a raw voice. “I can’t do this. I can’t… I need to deal with this first.”

  *.*.*

  Both men watched as anguish washed across her pale face, breaking the mask that she tried to hide behind. Melina turned on her heel and hurried out of the house. Cree and Calo both started to follow her, but stopped when Harry stepped in front of them.

  “Let her go,” Harry said, raising his hand when both men issued a low, threatening growl. “For now. You boys don’t know how close she and Cal were. There was a special bond between those two. I’ll watch over her. I love that little girl, too. I’ve been there for her since the day she was born. Hell, I was there when her dad was born. Just, give her a little space. She’s always been a bit of a loner.”

  Calo placed his hand on Cree’s chest when his brother started to step around Harry. He knew the old man was right, but he didn’t like it. Both he and Cree were still feeling raw from last night. Neither of them was prepared for the tidal wave of emotion or the connection that existed after their claiming of Melina.

  “Protect her,” Calo said in a guttural voice. “Bring her back to us. And Harry…”

  Calo waited for Harry to understand what he was about to say to him. He wanted there to be no doubt in the man’s mind as to their intention. Melina was their true mate and they would not let her go.

  “Yes,” Harry said.

  “Let her know that she better come back,” Calo warned.

  “Or we will come after her,” Cree vowed.

  Harry nodded and hurried out of the house. He didn’t stop until he climbed in his old truck. He turned the key in the ignition, noting that his hands were shaking.

  “Are you okay?” Melina asked quietly from where she was already sitting buckled up in the passenger seat.

  Harry stared out the windshield of the truck before he glanced over at the house. He shook his head and muttered a curse under his breath. What he had seen had damn near scared the shit out of him.

  “Was I hallucinating or did those two have scales rippling over their skin?” He asked hoarsely.

  Melina lowered her head and bit her lip before she glanced at Harry, who was staring at her. The worried look creased the lines around his mouth and eyes. She looked at the house once more before she shook her head.

  “They’re dragon shifters,” she informed him in a voice that was barely audible. “I saw two of them when I was on the asteroid. I… I’ve never seen Cree and Calo shift, but they are known as the Twin Dragons.”

  “Shit, I hate it when I’m right,” Harry muttered. “They told me to bring you back.”

  “Or what? They’ll come after me?” Melina growled in im
patience as Harry put the truck in gear.

  “You said it, Mel, not me,” Harry replied, turning onto the main road. “And honey, they meant it.”

  Chapter 23

  “We shouldn’t have let her go,” Calo admitted as the dust settled back down on the drive. “We should have tied her up, taken her back to the Horizon and fucked her until she couldn’t resist us.”

  “Who said we would let her go without us?” Cree said, striding toward the front door where he turned and looked at his brother with a raised eyebrow. “Are we the not the best warriors among the Valdier? The unseen dragons that attack without our enemies ever seeing us?”

  “She is not our enemy,” Calo said with a huge grin.

  “No, she is our true mate,” Cree replied opening the door.

  Their symbiots had already transformed into identical sleek fighters. If anyone had been watching, they would have sworn they were seeing things. The moment the men slid inside the golden vessels, the ships shimmered and disappeared.

  “Follow her,” Cree growled, leaning forward as the gold bands wound up his arms.

  *.*.*

  Melina carefully replaced the grass over the small hole Harry had dug. She smiled up at Harry as he handed her the flowers that she had picked earlier that day. They were an assortment of wildflowers and reminded her of her Gramps.

  She looked at the headstone. Running her fingers over the names, she would need to have the date added for Gramps death. A sense of peace swept over her. He was with her mom, dad, and Nana now.

  “Thank you, Gramps,” she whispered as she arranged the flowers. “Thank you for loving me so much. Thank you for taking care of me and for protecting me. Thank you for being my best friend. I… I love you, Gramps. You’re the best grandpa any girl could wish for. I’m… I’m so proud to be called your granddaughter.”

  Melina pressed a kiss to one of the white blooms before she laid it on top of the headstone. She tilted her head to the fading sun and closed her eyes as a light breeze blew the hat she was wearing off where it landed beside her. She stayed like that for several long minutes, thinking of her parents and grandparents when they were alive.
