Romance: In Love With A Beast (Paranormal BBW Panther Shifter Romance) (Shapeshifter Mystery Alpha Werebear Romance Short Stories) (49 page)

How does everyone know we’re lovers?
She knew now wasn’t the time to be thinking it but she couldn’t help it. Was it that obvious?

Paige mentally shook herself. She stared at the vampire in front of her for a fraction of a second before her body moved, separate from her mind.

She didn’t realize what she was doing until she was staring at the gun. It was aimed dead center of his head.

The vampires smile vanished. “I’m warning you mutt, lower that toy and come with me.”

A growl escaped Paige, her lips pulled back and her teeth bared. In human form it probably looked ridiculous.

Something resembling a growl escaped the vampire as he lunged towards her. Paige froze. She didn’t pull the trigger like she should have.

Instead she felt her back hit the hard floor under her.

“Paige!” Markus shouted.

“Kill them all!” the vampire’s voiced raised over everything that was going on around them. Paige could hear the other vampires move into the room. She heard shots fire. Her gun. Where was her gun?

The vampire’s fingers curled around her throat. “You should have just come with me.” He hissed. “Now your lovers will die and I will make your life
hell.
” He snarled as he crawled on top of her. He bared his fangs.

Let me take over.
The wolf demanded. The wolf was right. Paige took a deep breath and let the wolf side have total control.

Chapter 3

Ben’s hands were sweaty. They never sweat.

Now , here he was facing down a vampire while Paige’s life was in danger. The vampire in front of him was female with long black hair and a black dress on. She wore high heels that made Ben wonder how she could walk, let alone kick him in the gut, and not fall over. He rolled out of the way as she reached for him. His gun… where was it?

He caught a glimpse of it on the other side of her.
Shit.
He pushed himself to his feet reaching for the knife in his pocket. Okay, it wasn’t a knife it was more like a small dagger.

The woman laughed as he readied himself for their fight.

“Stupid human.” She cooed as she reached for him. He ducked, thrust the sword towards her. It hit her arm. She screamed in pain. He thrust towards her again, she screamed in anger this time as her fingers wrapped around his wrist.

“Stupid, stupid human.” She hissed.

Ben didn’t scream as he felt his wrist snap in two. He would have, but it hurt so damn much he couldn’t speak as he dropped to the floor. The woman laughed.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.
It hurt so bad. He could feel the tears rolling down his cheeks.

Markus. He glanced over but there was no sign of his friend. Paige. She lay on the floor, the vampire on top of her. He bent down as his fangs grew.

The girl in front of Ben tangled her fingers into his hair and yanked his face towards her. She bent down. Her lips curled into a snarl. “Your girlfriend is going to die. And there is nothing you can do to save her.” A high pitched laugh escaped her as she tossed him to the ground.

He heard the clink of her heels as she walked away.
No.
Ben tried to push himself to his feet. His hand throbbed with pain and his legs wouldn’t budge.

******

Dodge.
Markus’s body listened to his brain as he ducked out of the way and backed up. He led the vampire into the living room. There was a lot of space and hardly anything to get in their way.

The vampire followed him in. This one was short, with black hair and he wore an old leather jacket with scuffed jeans. Markus stepped aside as the vampire grabbed at him. He was still young, still coming into his new life. Markus took advantage of it. He let the vampire lunge towards him again. Markus dodged the vampire and waited for it to lunge again. Even vampires had little stamina and Markus planned on taking advantage of that. He fired his gun, not really caring if it hit the vampire or not. It snarled and lunged towards him again.

********

Paige gasped for breath. The vampire’s fingers tightened around her neck.

She grabbed his wrist, struggled against him. She could feel her nails dig into his flesh, smell it when she started to draw blood and yet he still sat there. Laughing he tightened his hold against her neck, stood up and pulled her onto her feet and into the air.

“Yes. Get the blood pumping and your adrenaline running.” He whispered next to her ear.

This was what he wanted? To scare her?
No.

Paige closed her eyes. She focused on her pounding heart. He wanted her scared she wouldn’t be scared.

She heard the sound of bones crack. They weren’t hers. She knew that much.

Paige tried to take a deep breath.
Relax.
She told her wolf. It fought.
No, don’t relax. Fight. Kill him.
Paige refused to listen to the wolf. She took a deep breath to slow her heart rate. It was working. She could feel the wolf calming down, she could feel herself calming down but this wasn’t going to work for much longer.

Paige forced her eyes open and stared into the vampire’s eyes. A smile spread over her lips. “Fuck you.” She gasped.

His fingers tightened around her but not before she could draw in a deep breath. She forced her leg to work as she lifted it and forced it back down against him.

It didn’t do much but it did just enough to make him lose his focus. His grip loosened on her neck. Paige reached towards him. She had just enough reach to poke his eye.

That warranted a scream from him. He released her and Paige fell to the ground. She scrambled away from him.

Shit.
Her back touched the back of someone’s legs.
Please say it’s one of the boys.
Paige forced herself to look up. It wasn’t one of the boys.

A girl smiled down at her as her fingers tangled into Paige’s hair. “Don’t run.” She wasn’t gentle as she pulled Paige to her feet by the root of her hair.

Paige groaned as the male vampire closed the distance between them.
Shit, shit, shit.
How was she going to get out of this?

Paige heard the gunshot before she felt the girl stumble and fall backwards.

“Down!” Markus shouted.

Paige dropped to the ground covering her head. She heard three more shots. She looked up just in time to see the vampire drop to the ground.

She looked around.
Ben.
Paige forced herself towards him. He was laying there unconscious.
Please, please don’t be dead.

“Ben,” Paige pleaded as she touched him. There was no blood, just dirt and… a broken wrist.

“Is he okay?” Markus dropped down beside her.

“He’s… I think he’s okay.”

Paige watched as Markus ran his fingers over Ben’s forehead. “He’ll need a doctor but he’ll be okay.” It sounded more like he was talking to himself then to Paige.

Chapter 4

“Just relax already. I’m alright.”

“Your wrist is broken.” Paige reminded Ben.

“It’s not the first time it has happened and it won’t be the last. Just quit worrying and staring at me like that.” he looked angry but he voice was kind.

“Sorry.” Paige looked down.

Ben took her hand and pulled her down onto the bed with him. “Don’t be sorry babe.” He kissed her gently. “But quit worrying so much, alright?”

“Fine.” Paige couldn’t help but smile as Ben pulled her down into his arms.

Markus emerged from the bathroom in nothing but a towel. He looked them both over. Paige sighed at the view as he came towards them.

“How are you feeling?” she asked.

“I didn’t get a scratch.” Markus grinned slightly. “How are
you
feeling?” Markus stared at the bruise forming around Paige’s neck.

“I’m fine, my neck hurts a little but I’ll heal soon and then it will just be something else in the past.”

Ben kissed the top of her head. “You’re a tough little wolf.” He praised.

The wolf side of Paige was thrilled. She liked making others happy. She liked making her family and her friends proud. But Paige refused to let that show.

She felt Ben’s uninjured hand slide over the curves of her body. Markus watched as Ben’s lips touched her neck.

For the first little while it felt weird to have another man watch as someone turned her on, whether it was Ben or Markus depended on the night. But now, after a few weeks it felt… erotic to have another man watch. Markus wasn’t going for that though.

He grabbed Paige and pulled her away from Ben. A grin spread over his mouth as Paige fell face first onto his bare chest.

“You’re hurt.” Markus teased. “You have to be careful tonight.”

Markus’s hand ran from Paige’s neck, along the curves of her body and to her butt, his nails dragging gently. He lifted her chin until their lips met. But it wasn’t a soft kiss and it was nowhere near sweet. It was passionate and aggressive.

Paige moaned against his kiss, her arms wrapping around him and pulling him closer. Markus scooped her legs up, wrapped them around his waist and guided her back down onto the bed. His fingers brushed her hair out of their face before they worked their way down to the hem of her shirt.

He pulled away, his eyes sparkling as he watched Paige grab the bottom of her shirt and slowly, teasingly pull it up and over her head. Without hesitation Ben reached for her front clipping bra. It took him less than a second to unhook it. Paige rolled away.

“You’re hurt. You have to be careful.” She placed her hands on her hips, a soft grin coming over her face. “Now lie down so I can take care of you.”

Ben grinned as he flopped back against the pillows. Paige moved towards him on her hands and knees. She crawled between his legs and kissed him gently.

Markus closed the distanced between them. She could feel his hands on her thighs, creeping their way closer and closer to her pussy.

Ben let out a soft moan as Paige chewed at his lower lip gently. She let her hands wander down his chest to the belt that held his pants on. It took a couple seconds of trying but she managed to get the belt undone without breaking the kiss. Markus reached his arms around her waist.

She felt the button on her own pants pop as he pulled away. His fingers hooked around the waist of her pants and a split second later she felt cold air touch her skin.

Paige unzipped Ben’s pants and reached into them. Her fingers curled around his already hard member and she pulled it out.

Ben’s hand that wasn’t injured made its way to her head, his fingers finding a perfect home between the strands of hair. He guided her head down until her lips touched his cock.

A moan escaped Paige as her she mouthed him, but it wasn’t because of him it was because of Markus. Hs hand slipped between her legs, rubbing gently he pushed her panties aside and let one finger run between her folds.

He made a sound of approval before pulling away. She heard the sound of him unzip his pants. They fell down around his knees and he moved closer to her.

Paige looked up at Ben, who wasn’t staring at her. Instead he was staring at Markus, his eyes glazed over with lust. “Fuck her.”

Paige gasped as she felt Markus’s cock against her, pushing into her gently. Paige felt Ben’s fingers pull her hair. He guided her head up and down his shaft as fast as he wanted her to go, deeper and deeper into her mouth he went until Paige took over.

She worked his cock in and out of her faster and faster. He moaned gently.

Markus pushed into her, no longer gently, faster and faster. His hands rested on her lower back, pushing her down against the bed.

“Make him cum.” He ordered her.

The order made Paige’s blood boil. She sucked Ben faster, her tongue playing with the tip of his head.

“Oh fuck,” Ben muttered, his fingers tightening around her hair.

Paige mouthed him perfectly, quietly humming against him until Markus pushed into her as hard as he could. Paige let out a scream muffled against Ben. Ben gasped gently.

Markus pushed into her again, as hard as he could. His fingers pushing her lower and his cock feeling better the lower she went. She moaned loudly.

Ben gasped. Paige looked up just in time to see his eyes roll back as his hips thrust towards her. She moaned louder as Markus pushed in and out of her, swallowing every ounce of Ben’s cum that came into her mouth.

Finally, when every last drop was swallowed Ben let out a shaky breath. His eyes were glazed over, this time because he was tired, as he pulled Paige off his cock. He fell back against the pillows, his eyes half closed.

Paige smiled as she closed the distance between them. Her lips touched his for a fraction of a second. It was sweet and gentle. They made their way along his jaw and down his neck, her teeth grazing his skin lightly. She stopped only for a fraction of a second to suck on a patch of his skin. Marking him as hers.

She kissed the already forming hickey as she pulled away.

“Up.” She ordered.

Markus pulled away from her, his eyes following her every move as she lay down on her back, slipped her pants down her legs before spreading them and pulled him towards her.

Markus bent down as he slid into her for a second time. His lips traced over her bare chest, to her breast and up her neck to her lips.

They held their kiss for several seconds before Markus pulled away and came back. Their lips coming together and apart again and again. Paige’s arms wrapped around Markus’s neck as he pulled away. He lowered himself to her ear.

“I love you.” He whispered.

Paige froze. What was she supposed to say?

Markus didn’t think much on it. He pulled away from her a little, sliding in and out of her faster and faster. He took her wrists in his hand and pinned her arms above he head. Ben lay beside them, watching half asleep as Paige’s mind raced. He had just told her he loved her.

Relax.
Paige mentally shook herself. She would deal with that later, right now she was going to enjoy herself. She pulled away from Markus’s hold. He let her, and rested her arms against his chest. Her fingers traced over every inch of his body. The body as was beginning to learn so well.
