Savage Smoke (23 page)

Chance had definitely heard of them, although he’d never had the pleasure of meeting anyone in the group. The LIIA claimed them to be more of a secret service type of group, although he figured the Elders knew them personally.

“We’ve been following the actions of this clan of vampires since a number of were-beings have gone missing. Each time there’s a disappearance, there’s also been a sighting of a vampire.”

A knock at the door drew everyone’s attention. “Enter,” Zander directed.

Dir and Jasmine walked in. Jasmine gasped as her gaze darted around the room. “What the hell?” With a wide-eyed glance at Chance, she continued, “Good mother of the gods, who are you, Zander?”

“Come in, sit down and we’ll fill you in.” Chance stood and as they filed by, he introduced Dir and Jasmine to Zander. The two sat next to Damen.

“Zander, would you mind explaining again for the newcomers while I make a phone call?” Chance wanted to check in.

“No problem. Of course, I’ll cover it again. After all, we want everyone on board for this.” With his handheld remote, Zander flipped the monitor back to the first image of concrete walls and a fortress. “You’ll find a cell phone over there in the top drawer.” Zander pointed toward a desk. Chance pulled open the drawer and grabbed one.

“Lila’s watching over the place until we return. She’ll have all the updates for you.” Jasmine continued glancing around the room at all the equipment, and then her focus settled on the flat screen. Chance noticed she’d slipped on a robe to cover herself. So not like her. He’d have to find out why later.

He walked to the other side of the room to make the call. “Hey, Lila, what’s been happening I should know about?”

“Chance?”

“Yep, talk to me. What’s been going on?”

“Well, Olivia is posted as a missing person. The whole damn area is being combed by not only police investigators, but the CIA and FBI. Apparently, Lacey Briggs, Olivia’s sister, has created quite a stirring up-roar. She’s residing in Olivia’s house at the moment determined to find out what happened to her sister and why the barn on Olivia’s property has burned-down.”

“Damn.” Chance took a deep breath, thinking of how he could placate Lacey when Olivia had to remain in wolf-form for another seven weeks, until she birthed the pups. “We need to call off the search. I’ll contact the Elders and have them take care of the agencies involved. Also, would you mind getting Lacey’s number?”

Lila chuckled. “Not sure I want to get near her if I don’t have some information about Olivia. This woman has been a real tyrant according to sources.”

“You know what, Olivia will know her number. I’ll take care of Lacey. Anything else going on?” Chance looked up in time to see Zander showing his aroused tool to Dir and Jasmine. He couldn’t believe Damen didn’t step in, but then he recalled how mesmerizing it was standing next to Zander and his stimulating cock with all the pheromone attractant in the air.

“Nothing that can’t wait,” Lila’s voice broke in, drawing his attention back to the call.

“Lila, it looks like we’ll be here for a while. Can you keep watch over the place?”

“Gotcha covered. I have a couple others from the east coast coming in to help me out. Don’t worry. You take care of business there.”

Chance hung up and was dialing the Elders, but stopped when he happened to looked up. Dir and Jasmine were touching Zander’s cock with enthusiasm. Zander moved closer to them. Jasmine cradled one of his large testicles. Zander gripped both their hands and glided them up and down the length of his staff, as he’d done with Chance. Zander’s eyes closed, and his body trembled.

Chance moved toward the front of the room, off to the side to get a better visual and make sure no one got hurt. Damen sat there staring with his mouth opened as if in awe. Chance noticed Damen’s state of arousal, not much different than Chance’s own, thinking of Olivia. Damen grabbed his cock with both hands, unconsciously stroking it as he watched Dir, Jasmine, and Zander.

“Do you wish to touch it with your tongue?” Zander’s inquiries resonated in a soft, warm tone, sending chills along Chance’s spine. He imagined it did to all of them sitting there.

Without looking at each other, Dir and Jasmine nuzzled Zander’s erection, looking like their tongues were stuck to a large Popsicle that rippled. Zander’s eyes remained closed. But this time, Chance didn’t notice any discomfort low in his belly, only an intense hard-on for his mate.

“Chance, you there?”
Olivia’s impeccable timing came in perfect order. He quietly left the room to get Lacey’s phone number and make his calls.

Olivia

Olivia and the entourage of newbies finished eating and then followed Rynd to a cabin. He shifted into human-form and opened the door. “Come in, females.” He stepped aside until they all had gathered around him inside. “There’s a swinging door if you choose to go out or come in while in your furry-mode.” He pointed at the door on the back wall. There are plenty of blankets puddled around the floor for resting and staying warm. There’s also a swinging door off the kitchen where you can get back inside the lodge should you choose.”

The females surrounded Rynd, each attempting to rub against his legs, their arousal strong in the air. Olivia noticed Rynd’s arousal as well, his thickened member looking more like one of her vibrators from times past. A female stretched herself to lap at his sack. Another stood over the first, paws on its back to reach his full and twitching erection with her tongue.

“Holy blow job, if you aren’t shifting, I need to.” He backed away from them and they followed. Rynd shifted into bear-form and the wolves moved away. He laid on his back, his pulsating cock sticking straight up from his body, and the wolves sidled in. Licking, lapping, humping different parts of him, the wolves made it look like a feeding frenzy, only Olivia felt the pull to Rynd as well and knew his arousal drew them in.

She figured Rynd could handle himself and the wolves, so she walked out the swinging door before allowing herself to succumb to Rynd’s attractant. She thought of Chance.

“Chance, you there?”

“Hey, love, I need Lacey’s cell phone number. Apparently, she’s worried sick about you. Been trying to contact you.”
Chance’s voice claimed Olivia’s attention.

Olivia quickly rattled off the number telepathically.
“How will I talk to her?”

“Babe, you won’t be able to talk to Lacey. I’m going to handle it.”
Chance stopped abruptly in her mind, which Olivia understood it as confusion for him.
“I’ll let you know the outcome.”

How could she share her pregnancy with her sister? Lacey should know about it.

Olivia suddenly became overwhelmed, choking on it. She needed a run to get her out of the funk she’d dropped into. It started the moment she’d shifted to wolf-form and then didn’t know what kind of harm had come to her and Chance’s babies. She hadn’t felt the babies move since she shifted, but the burning sensation in her womb she’d felt earlier had receded hours ago. If anything happened to their babies because of her, she’d never forgive herself and she’d never expect Chance to either.

Olivia needed escape from those negative thoughts. The freeing of senses and heart that came with a run in wolf-form drove her. She glanced at the building next to the one Rynd and the females occupied, then looked out at the vast wooded area beyond. Kicking up her paws, she ran as hard and fast as she could toward the trees.

Trevor

After Lindsey finished the eggs and sausage Trevor prepared, he cleared the dishes away, and swept her up into his arms. He carried her through the great room and up a wide stairway leading to the upper levels. Oh the first level he maneuvered around the next upper-level stairway and down a wide hall with a number of double doors on both sides. He knocked on the third door, and upon no answer, dropped Lindsey to her feet.

“Before I open the door, does this level feel good to you?” Trevor trembled with expectation, his arousal uncontrollable. He had waited for Lindsey long enough.

Lindsey’s gaze melted him inside, making his cock itch for her. She opened the doors in answer and practically floated into the room. Trevor followed like an obedient love-slave. The room, rich in wood and spun cotton colored deep green, gave the appearance of a large love-nest, with a huge Jacuzzi taking up the outside wall with a view. The window went from floor to ceiling, the same size as the hot tub.

“Oh my God. Trevor let’s soak in the hot tub first.” Lindsey ripped her coat off, followed by her shirt, boots, socks, jeans, and thong.

“Good gods, woman, I’m gonna blow just watching you strip.” Trevor grabbed Lindsey before she reached the tub. “Let me get the heat going on it first then we’ll dip.” He picked her up and placed her on the bed. Then quickly moved to the controls and cranked up the heat.

When he turned toward Lindsey, she’d leaned back, spread herself open, fingering her passage. “Got something here for you, mate,” she cooed.

The sight of her so open and glistening, smelling her wanton arousal was more than Trevor could take. He grabbed himself and squeezed just to keep himself in check. Lindsey raised her hips, opening even more to him.

Trevor moved like a blur, pulled her finger tips from her honey-pot, and licked them clean. Lindsey pulled him closer by drawing her legs around his waist. He guided his erection down her moist crevice and buried it in her center. She shoved into him, driving him deeper. He gazed into the passion reflected in her half-lidded eyes and totally lost control. Grabbing her hips, he held her bound to him, his whole body shaking in desire and need of her. He bucked into her, thrusting like a piston ramming in and out of her. “I’m lost in you, darlin’. I can’t. Stop. Myself.” Trevor worked his mind at thinking of anything that might slow him down, but his wolf took complete control…again. Like a wolf, mad with lust, he hammered himself in and out of her hot, moist passage, lit on fire even more by her bouncing breasts.

He came inside her like a torrential storm, her panting screaming moans rose in a crescendo matching his climax with her convulsing passage. Trevor dropped his torso over her breasts. His breath rattled in rasps of elation, sated and spent as small tears trekked over Lindsey’s cheeks.

Lindsey wrapped her arms around Trevor’s neck, kissing him wildly, exploring his mouth with furious abandon. He hungered after her with his tongue, allowing his own exploration. He swept his palms over her soft taut nipples and she moaned against his tongue.

Still seated inside her, Trevor swaddled his arms around her back and lifted her, carrying Lindsey down the steps of the hot tub. She ground herself against him, her passage gripping his semi-hard cock.

He slipped off the last step and dropped Lindsey and himself into the water, his cock pulled from her. They both broke the surface laughing, and Trevor loved the sound of Lindsey’s mirth. It filled his heart, obliterating any residual shit regarding Lindsey with Smoke.

“Trevor, can we do it again, only this time slower?” Lindsey licked her lips, only the pink tip of her tongue stroked across her upper lip, creating a rush of blood to pulse through Trevor making him rock hard, so hard it hurt. Drips of water glistened like gemstones off her eyelashes from the moonlight streaming through the window.

“I’ve got the perfect place for you to sit, darlin’.”

Chance

Chance dialed the Elders first and instead of staff picking up, Breanne answered.

“Hello, Chance. I had another vision of Olivia.” Breanne’s French accented words played havoc over his heart. She’d known it was him before he spoke a word.

A knot formed instantly inside the base of his neck. Chance closed his eyes not wanting to hear anything bad about Olivia, but knowing he wouldn’t rest until Breanne spilled her vision. “Tell me what you saw.”

“I knew as soon as Olivia shifted. Your younglings called out to me in pain and terror.”

Chance’s mouth went dry. Water welled in his eyes. “Finish it, Breanne.”

“They are both strong in their abilities and together helped each other heal. Helped Olivia heal as well. All are well, but Olivia mustn’t shift back to her human-form.”

Chance breathed a deep sigh of relief, he couldn’t hide it. Tears slid down his face. “Thanks for letting me know my family is fine.”

“I thought you’d wish to know that. Now, what is it you want to know about Zander and Rynd?”

Breanne’s ability to know what someone was about to say always came as a shock to Chance whenever her ability was directed at him. He stuttered for a minute before pulling his thoughts together.

“Zander claims they are stewards of a group called
Lycanthropy Stewardship Operations
. Is this something Marcel knows about…and if so, what can you tell me about them?”

“Yes, Zander and Rynd are both active members of the LSO. They’ve been monitoring a clan of vampires.”

“The same clan who captured Jase.” Chance relaxed even more knowing Zander was being honest. “These bears have a different spin on sexual behavior.” That popped out before Chance could rein in his thought.

Breanne giggled. “Oh, yes, they are a playful, lusty lot, those Kodiak-weres. But they are also genuinely respectful of another’s mate. They may sexually play, but will never take another’s mate…ever.” Breanne hesitated and then said, “Chance, they work best when they are sated. Their concentrated focus turns acutely attuned to whatever they are processing. Keep them happy and they’ll totally outperform any LIIA agent on investigations. You should seriously think about adding them to your group of agents.”

“Too soon to know how the pack will receive the Kodiak-weres’ overt sexual behavior. So far, they all seem pretty lost to it. Not sure if there will be any repercussion from what’s going down right now.”

Breanne laughed again. “Having experienced both of them, let me say, there is nothing comparable to their need to pleasure and be pleasured. Those pheromones of theirs act like an aphrodisiac, stimulating and removing any inhibitions. Like I said, there’s nothing like having an experience with them, male or female alike.”
