Argus: Accepting the Challenge (6 page)

The officer turned back to them and glared.  “Ask the complainant when I’m through.”  He ground out; apparently, he didn’t like being embarrassed by the women.

Argus and Jacob stood and listened while the officer took Skye and her friends statements.  He smiled when he heard the account of what had gone on.  His mate was a little spitfire.  Ari had left to go to the police station and bail Warren out.  They were good at these kinds of things.  He was sure that they had already come up with a plausible story about what Warren was doing in the room.

It seemed to take forever for the statements and formalities to take place.  Finally, after a long time, the officer thanked the women and told them that they would be hearing from them.

Then Bambi and Heather patted her on the shoulder and left her standing awkwardly in the middle of the parking lot with the two men.  As they were walking away, they gave her a wink and said they wouldn’t mind helping her out with the two hunks, giggling as they went.  She was shifting from foot to foot clearly uncomfortable.  Jacob wanted to scoop her up and take her back to their house and let her know that everything was okay.  But they couldn’t do that, because it had been one of their men they caught in her room.  This should be interesting.

“Uh, hey, thanks for coming over and checking to make sure I was okay.  I’m just going to go back to my room and clean everything up.  It has been a long day, you know.”  Skye stammered.

She was so damn cute; Argus thought and looked at Jacob with a raised eyebrow.  “It’s okay, baby girl.  We were worried when you left the restaurant so suddenly anyway.  I thought you were going to be serving us dinner.  Argus and I hoped to take you out for a drink after you got off work.”  Jacob said smoothly.

“Oh, well, that would have been lovely.  But as you can see, I have too much going on right now.  And I really need to get into my room.  Plus, I am off men right now.  No offense, I am sure you are both great guys.  I just don’t really have time to put up with men stuff.”  Skye said.

Argus stiffened.  Their mate was rejecting them.  Seriously?  “Skye, staying here is not really safe.  And we aren’t such bad guys, if you give us a chance, we can change your mind.”  He said softly.  Argus did not want to scare their little human, but she was not going anywhere without them. 

Skye snorted and looked down to her feet.  They were crazy on top of everything else.  She was not blind.  These two hot good looking men weren’t interested in her for the long haul.  They probably thought because she worked at the restaurant and lived in a motel that she was cheap.  Also, given the fact that she didn’t look like a hooker because she would never have the body or the looks, they probably thought they could fuck her for free.  Shit, they probably thought she was desperate for the attention.  The anger began to build in her, as she thought about the only reason men like them would even be talking to her.  Nothing good came to mind.

She looked around the small parking lot that had emptied out except for a few people lingering, talking about the ruckus that had just taken place.  She at least was not going to be humiliated in front of a large group.  Taking a deep breath, she looked at the two men in front of her and said quietly, so she didn’t draw more attention.  “Listen, I’m a waitress, not a hooker.  I just want to be left alone.  I can’t believe that you would use this situation to try to get a piece of ass.  Gosh, what’s next?  Want me to give you a blow job right here in the parking lot?”

Argus frowned and looked at the woman like she was crazy.  Maybe it was him that was crazy because the moment the word blow job passed her lips he got a hard on.  The thought of his little mate kneeling in front of him sucking on his shaft while Jacob took her from behind was an image he wouldn’t get out of his head anytime soon.  He looked at Jacob and smiled when he saw the lust in his eyes.  He was thinking the same thing.  She was so cute all indignant and everything.

Argus threw back his head and laughed.  “Sweet thing, if we thought you were a prostitute we would not have offered a drink.  We just want to get to know you better.”  He said softly.

She looked between the two men.  Why were they talking in plural?  Two men and her.  What the hell?  It was like the books she had been reading.  Last week when she stopped at this dive of a gas station, she looked for something to read while she slept in her car.  Unfortunately, all they had was men’s nudey mags and ménage books.  She had taken a couple of books and quickly became engrossed in the stories.  Since she didn’t want to waste her money, she read them over and over. 

Skye had begun to fantasize about having two men like in the books.  They seemed so loving and caring, devoting themselves to one woman to share and protect.  All the heroes pampered and focused on their women.  It was the type of relationship you could only dream of.  And she had.  The last few nights it had been what woke her in the middle of the night.  The thought that they were both interested in her made her feel a little overwhelmed.  They could not be talking about having a ménage with her.  That only happened in books she thought, and looked around wildly.

“Oh, yeah, well I gotta go.”  She said, turned, and ran for her room.  Once she got inside, she slammed the door and locked it.  Only when she was sure that she was alone did she let out the breath that she had been holding.  She went to the window and peaked out of the curtains that looked on the courtyard.  The two men were standing there staring at the room she occupied.

Skye shivered and pulled away from the wall.  What was she going to do?  Her car was not going to be done for a few hours, and she barely had enough money to pay the mechanic.  If she did not go to work, she would never get out of here.  How could she though?  Strange men breaking into her room and two men who were obviously wanting to use her as a pathetic plaything. 

She sighed and went into the bathroom.  At least she had the night to get herself together and relax, she would have a plan by morning, she thought.  Feeling gross and slimy, she peeled off her uniform and turned on the shower.  The day had been shitty and she needed to chill out. 

Her thoughts drifted to the men that were standing outside.  She ran her hands over her round curves and dreamed that it was their hands on her.  She cupped her large breasts and moaned when she ran her thumbs over her nipples.  They had been hard and straining since she had first seen Jacob.  He was sex on a stick.  She continued to play with her breast as she thought of them joining her in the shower.  First Jacob and then Argus.  She knew that Argus would be the one in charge, like in those books.

One of the men was always more dominant, and Argus screamed leader.  She could almost hear him ordering Jacob to suck her nipples until she cried out.  Skye felt the wetness coming from her pussy and groaned again.  Keeping one hand on her breast, she ran the other down to her mound. 

The entire time she thought of the large rough hands moving over her body, learning each curve, and telling her, they loved her.  It would be nice to actually hear that from a real person, other than just in her mind.  Jacob would kiss her and stand in the front playing with her breasts making sure that they were peaked.  He would suck them into his mouth and bite down gently, applying enough pressure to the nipple to send a zing to her pussy.  The thoughts made her feel her arousal begin to trickle down her thighs.

Argus would stand behind her.  His large cock pushing against her backside.  She would be bold, reach behind her, and grasp the thick shaft.  From the look of his pants earlier, she would not be able to wrap her small hand around the whole thing.  The thought made her shiver in the hot shower.  Argus would kiss her neck and run his hands down her back, cupping her bottom and then run a finger down her back crack, until he reached her forbidden opening.  She had read about how men like to take women together.  She had never had anal sex before and never wanted to, but the thought of Argus and Jacob together taking her, filling her up, was too much for her to stand.  They would be gentle and prepare her like the men in the books.  But when they joined, it would be amazing.  She could feel the orgasm building already with just her thoughts.

Skye had discovered the asshole she had been with had no clue how to bring her to orgasm.  She had been forced to learn how to please herself, so she knew exactly where to touch herself when she wanted to come fast.  Skye rubbed her finger over the already engorged nub between her legs.  She did not waste any time making herself come, pressing her fingers into her pussy, and pumping in and out while she kept pressure on her clit.  She was so close.  Skye moved her hands faster to give her the orgasm her body craved.  She thought about Argus behind her and Jacob in front of her, both of them worshipping her plump body like she was a goddess.  Yes it was a fantasy, but one that actually helped her to come.  Stars exploded behind her closed eyes and she slumped against the wall of the small shower. 

She felt much better, she thought and finished washing herself slowly, and savoring in the lazy and sluggish feeling her limbs had.  She got out of the shower, wrapped a towel around herself, and sighed when she looked in the mirror.

“Great, like you actually have a chance.”  She muttered to her reflection in the mirror.  Her short dumpy body peaked out at her and she turned her back to the reflection.  Damnit, she had to stop thinking like an insecure bitch.  She was better than that, well probably not enough to get the hot guys, but she hoped a respectable one. 

She sighed again and then pulled on her sweats and went to the other room.  She jumped on the bed, pulled the bags of food toward her, and flicked on the television.  It was her favorite night on the boob tube.  Gibbs and Stabler, too hot for words.

“Uh, what the fuck just happened?”  Jacob said and stared at the door their mate disappeared behind.

“I have no clue.  I think we need to find out about our little mate.”  Argus said quietly and stared with his friend at the door.

“Well shit, Warren is in jail and Ari is trying to get him out.  And we are standing here with our peckers in our hands and no mate.  What the hell?”  Jacob grumbled and ran his hand on the back of his neck.

“We’re attracting attention, so I think it is time we actually moved.  They are gonna think we are stalkers.”  Argus said.

“Ha, like that’s the worst of our problems.”  Jacob said and kicked a rock on the ground.

Argus grunted and looked around and saw the people that were standing out in their doorways still.  They were attracting attention.  “Come on.”  He said gruffly and walked back to where Ced was standing.

“Okay, what the hell is going on?”  Argus said to his Warrior.

Ced laughed and looked down at his shoes.  “Warren is out; he’s headed back to the compound.  They told the cops that he was drunk and went into the wrong room.  He is pissed that he got caught.  And embarrassed your mate took him out with a couple of roles of quarters.  Man she packs a punch.  Ced has the background check done.  He sent it to your phones.  I rented the room next to hers for the rest of the week.  We’ll be making headquarters there to keep an eye on her.  Don’t worry, we’ll watch her.”

Argus frowned at the thought of leaving their mate.  He looked at Jacob and then smiled.  “We’ll take the room.  Go to the compound and grab a bag for us.  Bring our computers and we will set up here.  I am not leaving without my mate.”

Jacob clapped his hands and rubbed them together.  “Now we’re talking.”  He held out his hand for the key that Ced was holding.  The Warrior laughed and said.  “I’ll bring your truck over later.

Argus nodded, turned, and walked purposely to the door next to their mate’s.  They could feel the eyes of the people still standing out watching them suspiciously.  They backed off a little when they saw Jacob use a key to get in the door.  Argus laughed under his breath at the people.  This was not the best neighborhood, but he would bet that this was the most excitement they’d seen in a long time.

They looked at the room and grimaced.  It was not what they were used to, but it was clean.  The furniture was old and the fabric had faded with age.  One large bed took up most of the room.  The cover matching the fabric on the chairs.  A small bathroom located in front of them and a small table with chairs to the right side of the bed.  At the foot of the bed was a dresser with a small television on top.  Jacob laughed and jumped on the bed.

“Kinda feels like we are on a mission and hiding out, huh.”  He said and bounced a few times on the bed before standing up and looking in the bathroom.

Argus snorted and sat in one of the chairs at the table.  “Jacob we need to talk.”

Jacob poked his head back out of the small room and smiled and wagged his eyebrows.  “Shower?”

Argus rolled his eyes and looked at his mate.  “Seriously, let’s look at this together.”  He said and waved his phone.

Jacob nodded and sat down.  He pulled out his phone and pulled up the email that Ced sent them.

Skye Thomas was 28 and single.  She had shared a place with a man for a year before moving abruptly a few weeks ago.  The man in question was Bob Strip; he had a long list of domestic violence charges and DWI’s.  Nice guy.  She had no family to speak of, her parents passed away years ago in a fire, and Skye was an only child.  Job history contained mainly of waitressing jobs.  She had no criminal history at all.  Skye had a hard life up until now. 

Argus looked up at Jacob and said.  “I’ve read enough.  She has had to be on her own for so long.  She needs to be taken care of, not have to worry about where her next meal is coming from.”
