Hard and Easy [High-Country Shifters 5] (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting) (10 page)

Frania pointed to a warrior with a sword. “If they could shift into wolves, why did they need weapons?”

Madra chuckled. “That’s an excellent question, but I think that he might be a she, and women didn’t shift and still don’t.”

Her mouth pinched. “You think women fought?”

“If the lions did indeed invade their idyllic society, I bet every able-bodied person would have fought.”

“That’s sad. I don’t know why they couldn’t have coexisted.” She pointed to another picture. “From the amount of food on the table, the wolves ate well.”

“I agree. I’m not sure if we’ll ever understand where the lions came from or why they decided to control Anterra.”

“Could they have come from Earth?”

The question stunned her. Neither she nor Lara posed the question. Anterra was a large enough planet, and they’d figured the lions had come from a different part of Anterra. “It’s possible. Earth has lions, but not lion shifters, or so we’re led to believe.” A cool breeze prickled her skin. “Though I guess anything is possible.”

Stomping feet at the entrance made her turn. “Frania!”

“Skelak.” The young girl stepped behind Madra. “He’s going to kill me.”

* * * *

Every hair on Brin’s body stood on end, and he nearly lost control and shifted. Frania’s dad moved toward the girl, but Brin was just fast enough to put himself between the two. “Your daughter’s being well supervised.”

“Supervised? Is that what you call it? I call it filling my daughter’s head with total nonsense.”

The man tried to move around him, but Brin blocked his path. “She’s excited about learning. What’s wrong with that? Don’t you think she’s old enough to decide for herself what seems right and what is total nonsense? Surely you’ve raised her well enough.”

The man’s gaze shifted right then left. He must realize that he wouldn’t look good no matter which answer he chose. When the man’s fists unclenched, Brin considered it a small victory and stepped away.

“Come on, Frania. Let’s go home.”

The girl looked up at Madra, almost waiting for her to save her. If Brin thought the man would harm his daughter, he would have escorted her home. Her dad dropped his head and wrapped an arm around his daughter’s shoulder. “Are you okay?”

“Yes, Daddy.”

He waited for them to get out of earshot. “Well, that wasn’t much fun, was it?”

Madra’s gaze darted to the entrance. “Can’t the dad see how much his daughter has changed? She always acted lifeless in school. I wish he could see who his daughter is on the inside.”

He wished the same for Madra. When she was with Frania, her passion flared. It was almost as if all obstacles in life had disappeared.

Larek drew the blanket out of Madra’s school backpack and spread it on the ground. “I for one am starving. Anyone care to join me?”

Madra’s smile lit up his body.

Larek passed out three bottles of water and held his up in a toast. “I have to say, this cave is amazing. I can see it would take months to decipher everything. Kudos to you and Lara.”

“It was Lara who discovered the cave. I just helped catalogue what she found.” She unscrewed the top and drank from the bottle. “It is exciting, isn’t it?”

“Yes.” Brin leaned closer. “Makes you want to tell the world about it.”

“It does.”

“You’ll figure something out.”

Her smile dimmed a little. “I wish.”

Larek pulled out three different kinds of cheese, a container of cut fruit, and some bread from his favorite bakery. For the next few minutes they dug in. It was almost as if the thrill of discovery made them more hungry. However, no amount of food was going to satisfy him. He wanted Madra.

“Is there a way to turn off the automatic sensors?” He glanced up at the ceiling.

She finished chewing a piece of cheese. “Why?”

“It’ll be more romantic with the lights off. The sunlight should be enough for us to see what we need to do.”

Her eyes sparkled, and then she laughed. “I see.” She got up and went to the far end of the cave that he hadn’t explored.

She waved her hand and the lights dimmed. “Does that work for you?”

She could have turned them off, but the low setting was nice. “Perfect.”

Madra returned to the blanket and continued eating. He couldn’t help but notice how her lips would pucker when she sucked the juice from the
northal
fruit. Picturing what those tangy lips could do to him, his cock hardened.

She’s killing me here
. Larek’s plea almost made him laugh.

Finish eating
.

Larek wrapped the leftovers in a napkin. “I’m finished. Ah, that was great.” He stretched out, propping his head on his hand.

Madra glanced from one to the other and smiled. “Are either of you interested in dessert?”

“What did you bring?”

His pulse raced as he awaited her response. She slowly put what was left of the food back in the containers. Larek slipped the boxes from her hands and stowed them back in the pack. Once the blanket was free of clutter, she, too, stretched out. “Me.”

“My favorite kind.”

His fingers itched to get her out of her clothes. Since he’d had the pleasure of her pussy last time, it was Larek’s turn to sink his cock into her. Brin would have to be content to stretch out her delicious ass and then have her suck on him. Just thinking about what was to come made his balls tighten.

Larek slid behind her and cupped her breasts over the thin top. Her moan came out loud and caused a deep ache in his groin. She shifted her weight back toward Larek. He loved how her ample hips accentuated her waist, but it might be her full, lush breasts that took his breath away. In a way, he was glad she liked to keep them covered. If she walked around bare chested, half the men of Anterra would be pounding at her door.

Unbutton her blouse and let me see her.

Larek obeyed, and as soon as he lifted one side, he crawled toward her and captured a nipple in his mouth. The first taste made his belly coil. He might pride himself on having control, but with Madra, he was lost.

She reached out and grabbed his cock through the loincloth. As much as he wanted her hands on him, if he didn’t take charge right now, she’d be sorry.

He pulled away. “Larek. Put her on her back and hold her hands. This little minx needs to learn she only gets to touch us when we say so.”

Her pouty mouth formed a perfect
O
. “That’s not fair.”

He grinned. “Trust me when I say I am doing this for your own good.” To prove to her that her one touch nearly made him burst, he undid the loincloth and tossed it to the side. “See how hard and red my cock is? You made him that way.”

She struggled a little in Larek’s grasp. “Will you let me lick him?”

That got a chuckle out of him. “How will that help the cause? I’ll tell you what. When Larek is fucking you, I’ll be begging you to suck on me.”

She smiled. “I can’t wait.”

“Good. Larek is going to make sure you behave yourself while I eat my dessert first.”

Her hips wiggled as if she couldn’t wait to have his tongue on her. That made him want her even more.

As much as he yearned to feast on her tits, her arousal was driving him crazy. Though he hadn’t been with her for a whole week, he wanted to make this experience even better for her than the last time. He hoped that was possible. “These pants have to go.” Skirts were so much nicer as he could reach up her legs and cup her pussy.

He hooked his thumbs in the waistband and pulled them lower. The sensuous way the material rode her curves caused his balls to ache further. “Lift up.”

She obeyed, and only then did he realize her shoes were in the way. It was as if he’d forgotten how to undress a beautiful woman. As soon as he slipped off her boots, he finished taking off her pants. Keeping his gaze on her plain white panties, he crawled up on his elbows and nudged open her thighs.

“These are so restrictive.”

“Yes.” She closed her eyes as if she wanted to imagine him pulling them off.

She didn’t have to wait long. With one tug, he discarded them. His heady inhale excited every inch of his body. The beast within vibrated, and his need to conquer her came on strong.

He truly wanted to take his time, but his desperation was too great. It was hard enough to watch Larek stroke the sensitive part of her arm with one hand while he twisted the fine strands of her hair with the other. When he bent over and kissed her, her moan made him want to be the one to cause her to lose control.

Opening her pussy lips, he made tiny flicks with his tongue, lapping up her juices. She bucked and he increased his speed. She broke off the kiss with Larek and gulped in air.

“That feels too good.”

He hoped she was talking about what he was doing, and as much as he loved playing with her pussy and driving her wild, his fingers itched to play with her tits. Since one of Larek’s hands would be busy holding her down, Brin didn’t feel guilty reaching up and twirling her nipple right and left. From the way her stomach fluttered, she liked what he was doing. He pinched the tip and she yelped.

“Did that hurt?” She’d told him she liked a bit of pain.

“Only at first. Do it again.”

Oh, how he loved a woman who enjoyed making love. His cock was throbbing so hard, he wasn’t sure he’d last long enough to stretch out her ass.

Switch places with me
.

Larek grinned. As soon as Brin clasped her wrists in his hand, Larek scooted down between her legs. He bent her knees and placed her feet on the blanket.

“I want better access to your sweet pussy. I want to get you nice and moist so I can glide my cock right down that passageway.”

She lifted her head. “Yes, yes, yes. Fuck me, now.”

“Not yet, babe. I need time to enjoy you.”

She dropped back her head and groaned. “But I’m so ready.”

Brin swiped an errant strand from her forehead. “Loving comes in many forms. Every time we touch you, we’re loving you. Don’t worry. Your pussy will get a workout soon enough. I promise you.”

Larek slipped two fingers into her and she scooted her hips lower. “More.”

Her scent was driving him crazy. He never should have left her pussy, but her large breasts were calling to him. After ensuring she couldn’t move her hands, he leaned over and drew her nipple into his mouth. She arched her back, clearly urging him to tug harder on the tip. With his free hand he massaged the other breast, loving how it molded perfectly to his palm. He twisted the nipple in his mouth and then ran his tongue around the tip, enjoying the texture and hardness.

Larek groaned.
I can’t last
.

Me neither. Let’s get her on her elbows and knees.

Like a well-oiled machine, they rolled her over and placed her in position. Brin got behind her and Larek moved to the front. He pressed his chest against her back and licked the shell of her ear. Every inch of her body thrilled him. If he weren’t ready to burst, he’d love nothing more than to spend hours exploring everything she had to offer.

“How would you like to ride Larek?”

“By the skies above, yes!” If they hadn’t asked soon, Madra would have demanded some release.

Larek got on his back and pulled her on top of him. His sculpted muscles pressed against her tender nipples and brought her more joy. She rubbed her torso right and left to increase the friction.

“Didn’t Brin play with your tits enough?”

“No.” She gave him her most disappointed look.

Brin tapped her butt. “I’m sorry if I didn’t satisfy you. I’ll work extra hard to make it up to you.”

That was just what she wanted to hear. “Okay.” She wiggled her butt in the hopes he’d play with her ass.

Larek cupped her face and tenderly kissed her. Something inside her snapped, and she kissed him back harder. Wanting more, she opened her mouth and dragged her tongue along the seam of his lips to urge him to come out and play. He obliged. The moment their mouths joined, their exploration took on new meaning. It was as if she couldn’t get enough of him. Now that her hands were free, she took advantage of running her fingers through his hair and letting the soft texture caress her palms.

As soon as she came up for air, Brin lifted her shoulders so that she was straddling Larek. “I need you too much. Watching you kiss him is driving me mad.” He rubbed her rear.

He was about to be watching some more, because she was close to climbing on top of Larek. Only then did she realize what his words implied. “Are you going to fuck my ass?”

“I wish, but I need to stretch you out first.” He ran a hand down her back. “Have you ever had a cock in your ass?”

She debated whether to lie. Probably half of Anterra had anal sex by the time they were twenty. “No.”

“I’ll take it slow and make it wonderful for you.”

These men were worming their way into her heart too fast.
