Steal the Moon (17 page)

“God, she looks hot.” An expectant grin lit Daniel’s face as he stared down at me.

“She does indeed.” Dev watched me struggle against the bonds. They caused me absolutely no pain but held me tightly. I wouldn’t be going anywhere. My skin was already getting hot under the boys’ scrutiny.

My arms were held over my head. Cool green ivy rolled over my skin, gently forcing my hands toward the headboard of our enormous bed. Vines had sprouted from somewhere under the bed and wrapped themselves around my ankles, spreading my legs wide.

“I’ve always liked this room.” Daniel winked down at me. “Now I know why.”

I knew why. Because we shared it. Because it was ours. All of ours. The last seven months had been the best of my life in some ways. In others ways it had been difficult, but I knew now that I wouldn’t have really walked out the door. I couldn’t have. I loved these men. I would fight for myself, but I didn’t think I could leave them for any reason.

From my right side, a marigold snaked its way across the bed. It was gold and yellow, the bloom as big as my palm. Dev’s control had grown over the last year. Since that night in Vegas, his control of his magic had grown in leaps and bounds. The marigold was from the front hall. Dev had drawn it in, pulling the flower from the pots that lined the entryway. Soft petals caressed my skin. Dev flicked his hand and the marigold brushed across my breast.

“We should talk about the new protocols,” Dev said. The silk from the bloom trailed to my other breast, lighting up my skin. Already I could feel Dev’s magic beginning to flow like a warm wave of lust.

My pussy was getting wet and he wanted to talk security protocols? Maybe we weren’t done fighting yet. “If you think you can get me hot and bothered enough that I’ll agree to anything you say, you’re probably right, Mr. Sex God.”

A sexy smile curled his lips up, and he reached out to tweak my nipple. After the softness of the bloom, his fingers were a little flare of sensation that went straight to my pussy and had me gasping. “I’m glad that you admit how good it can be, but I wasn’t going to force you to agree to anything.”

Daniel’s eyes were watching the marigold as it started down my torso. “He’s smart enough to know that after the sex you would start yelling. Well, I’m smart enough to know it and he’s decided to listen to me. Are you going to set that thing on her pussy?”

Dev’s hand moved again, and he proved that he could turn a perfectly innocent flower into a sex toy. The bloom skimmed against the tenderest part of my flesh, making me squirm. “I’m going to tease her with it. We’re both going to make sure she can’t wait a second longer to have a cock inside her. I think I would like to hear her beg, but first we should get a few things straight. I don’t like Lee.”

Damn it.
That little flower was tapping on my clit. “I do like Lee. I’m not getting rid of Lee.”

Daniel got to his knees next to me with a little laugh. “This should be a fun business meeting. Dev, I’m going to make a royal decree. All of our business should be done while Z here is naked and fornicating with plants.”

He leaned over and his deeply talented tongue licked at my nipple.

I groaned as he sucked it inside. “I’m still not giving up Lee.”

“I’m not asking you to, but I am asking that you tell me where you’re going and you let him do his job. Halfer is out there.” Dev sat down on the bed. “Everything we’ve done has been because we’re worried about you.”

“I love you both. I’m sorry about today, but I can’t live like this. I’ll keep Lee with me whenever I leave the building. I promise.”

Dev pouted a little, his gorgeous face staring down at mine. “I’m going to miss giving you your daily schedule. I like knowing where you are. I like scheduling your appointments.”

Because it made him feel useful. It made him feel important. I knew he liked handling all of the same things for Daniel as well. We’d formed an odd little family, and I could see now that Dev was trying to make a solid place for himself in it.

“You can still make my appointments for all the social stuff, but you two have to let me have a life outside all the politics. I’m not good at them. It’s making me miserable.” I hated the whole “be quiet and look pretty” crap I had to go through whenever Danny and Dev had their meetings.

The marigold slid up my torso and seemed to give me a little kiss on the lips before it zipped away, likely back to its place in the foyer. Dev replaced the blossom with his fingertips. As he stood, he slid his fingers down my body until he reached the juncture of my widespread legs. He ran a single finger through my pussy, testing it. I sighed against the light pressure, wanting so much more. My faery prince smiled down at me, obviously satisfied I was already responding. I gasped a little as he pressed in, spreading my labia and lightly delving inside. He drew the saturated finger directly into his mouth and sucked the cream off. Daniel gave my nipple a final tweak and stood. There was a large tent in those sweats of his.

“I have never had a lover get so fucking wet so fast. It’s intoxicating,” Dev commented, shaking his head.

My vampire smiled. “I spent most of my youth with my face in her pussy, so I have to agree with you. It’s my happy place.”

“I’m sorry, sweetheart,” Dev said as though suddenly noticing I was writhing on the bed. He gave me a slow, sexy grin. “Was there something you needed, my mistress?”

I held my head up so I could look at them. “You know what I want, Dev.”

He sighed. It was the sound of true contentment, and I knew he meant business. If I had busted out of my funk today then Dev was right behind me. “I know exactly what you want. I know what he wants, too. I also know it will be a while before either one of you gets it.”

“What does that mean?” Daniel was used to getting straight to the fun.

Cupping my breast, Dev sat on the edge of the bed. I was truly trapped, a toy bound for their pleasure. Yeah, it did something for me. It did a lot for me. I might prefer to be in charge when it came to work, but it had been so long since Dev had truly taken charge of me in the bedroom. I’d forgotten how much I needed it, how much I could let go and enjoy when they took the lead. Dev played lightly with my nipples, allowing the tips of his fingers to dance softly across the peaks. They hardened again and I tried to press up, needing a much firmer touch. I would have preferred his mouth there, but I was going to have to take what I could get.

Dev turned to Daniel. “It means that I’m ready to move this relationship forward. It means I’m done with merely participating. You’ve trained me to be a better fighter. I’ve listened to your advice and allowed you to be the master. In this room, I’m the master. Up until now, our sex has been what I can only call somewhat circumspect.”

Daniel’s head shook, his eyes narrowing. “Dude, we fuck the same girl in the same bed. How much freakier can it get?”

Dev laughed. “You have no idea, Daniel. Until tonight, I’ve been content for the most part to wait my turn and allow you to have yours. We’ve watched as the other pleasured our lover. This is not true sharing. Tonight we’re going to play a little game, and I’m going to take us places you haven’t even thought of yet.”

“Oh, I’ve thought of it, Dev,” Daniel admitted, his voice tight so I knew his fangs were out. “Are you kidding me? It’s all I’ve been able to think about for months. I just don’t know if Z’s ready.”

“She isn’t, yet. But she will be.” Dev’s face was perfectly serene even as I knew mine was tight with need. “Do you trust me, sweetheart? Will you let me lead you?”

“You know I trust you, Dev.” I trusted him implicitly. “Please, please fuck me.”

I was already going crazy. I was worried this little game of his just might kill me with wanting, and he hadn’t really touched me yet.

“Your Highness?” Dev asked, looking at Daniel expectantly.

Danny nodded. “I’m willing to let you lead in this.”

“Why don’t you find your happy place then,” Dev ordered softly, looking at my husband. “But Daniel, long slow strokes of the tongue. This is meant to tease, to torture in the most exquisite fashion. We don’t want her to come too soon. There should be some work behind a truly good orgasm. Make her beg for it.”

“Dev, that’s not fair,” I managed to say before Daniel took my breath away with that first sweep of his tongue. It ran the length of my pussy, and I could feel every inch of that stroke. Daniel’s big hands spread my legs even farther as he settled in and started to torment me with light caresses. I tried to push up, to force him to fuck me with his mouth, but the bonds held too firmly.

“Will it help if I promise you’ll be completely satisfied with the experience?” Dev asked as he rolled a nipple between his thumb and forefinger. He leaned down and touched the puckered flesh with the tip of his tongue. Teasing the nipple to a hard point, he finally pulled it into his mouth. He lightly sucked on it, the sensation making me want so much more. I nearly came off the bed when he gave me just the slightest edge of his teeth. I wanted to cry, to beg, to plead with him to give me more.

“Dev, please.” I gave in to the need.

His emerald green eyes held mine. “Yes, tonight we will please Dev. I can be your lapdog outside this room. I can spend my whole life fetching for you. I really don’t mind. In fact, I prefer for you to depend on me. But here, when we’re intimate, I’m the boss, Zoey.”

He needed to be in control and I’d finally figured out why last year when we’d walked through the Hell plane together. I’d discovered just how often he’d been forced to give up control during his life in the
sithein
, especially in sexual situations. Dev was a Green Man, part fertility god, and his sexuality had always been his greatest bargaining chip. He needed to know that I would submit to his wishes. As they’d never hurt me, never taken me any place besides pure pleasure and loving affection, I was more than willing to go down this path with him.

With both of them.

“Yes, Dev.”

“That’s what I like to hear. Now thank your husband. He seems to do an excellent job at eating that sweet pussy.”

I felt Daniel chuckle against my flesh. “It’s my favorite food.”

Dev tweaked my nipple again, a little bit of pleasure/pain. “Zoey, thank him.”

“Thank you, Daniel. It feels so good.” One of the things Dev loved to do was talk about sex. He’d allowed Danny and me to enjoy ourselves without putting too much pressure on us, but I realized how much he’d restrained himself. And he was right. What was wrong with telling Danny I loved how his mouth felt on me? What was wrong with talking about what I needed?

Oh, and this was exactly what I needed. The hurt was slipping away because we were together and we were finally being honest with each other.

“Daniel, I believe she’s ready to move on. Let’s see how her little pussy handles your finger. Only one.”

I felt Daniel chuckle against my swollen, saturated flesh as he lightly dipped a finger into my heat, stretching me gently. He worked his long finger into my passage and rotated it in a tantalizing fashion. It wasn’t anywhere close to enough and Dev knew it. Both of my men were a hell of a lot thicker than that scrawny finger, and yet I still fought to shove it in deeper, to get it to that place where it would do the most good.

“Danny.” I was panting, trying to get some oxygen into my lungs. “Baby, you really should fuck me now. I need it. Please. I don’t want your finger. I need your cock.” I went after the weak link. Danny had never played this particular game before. He’d never denied me anything when it came to sex. He had always just leapt in and did whatever he could to please me.

I nearly jumped out of my skin as his tongue delicately lapped at my desperate clitoris. It was just enough to make it swell but not so much that it sent me over that blissful edge I was so damned close to. Daniel didn’t look up at me. He stared straight at the flesh he was working. “Sorry, Z. I can’t disobey the teacher. You know how that goes.”

“It’s going to go poorly for her if she tries to get around me again.” Dev tweaked my nipple a little harder this time. “Do you really want to prolong this with a nice spanking?”

I shook my head because he wasn’t above doing it. Dev was a total deviant, and he liked to experiment. If I gave him a shot, he would torture me all night, and I really wanted to avoid that. “I’ll be good. Please.”

Daniel continued his slow tongue lashing. “I really like hearing you beg, baby. It’s making me forget how scared I was earlier. I think I’ll spank that pretty ass of yours if you disappear without any protection again.”

Dev moved on to my other breast, satisfied with the hardness of the first nipple. “You will find this is an excellent way to vent our frustrations when Zoey does something to make us insane. We need to go shopping, Daniel. There are a couple of stores that might have certain toys we would find amusing. I think these gorgeous tits would look pretty in nipple clamps.”

“Clamps?” I wasn’t sure it was a good idea to let the sex god loose in an adult store.

“Light pressure only, my lover,” Dev promised. “You’ll find you like the sensation. I’ll like the way it looks. Emeralds, I think. They would glow against your porcelain skin.” He ran a hand down to my navel. “And I think I have to insist on a belly button ring.”

Daniel groaned against my clit. “Oh, god, yes.”

“Daniel and I will choose something pretty,” Dev offered, running his hands over my curves. “Your body is our temple, lover, and we would like to decorate it.”

“I’ll do it.” I was willing to give them pretty much anything as long as they gave me what I needed. My body had been Dev’s temple since the first night we had sex. He genuinely enjoyed brushing my hair and even painting my toenails on occasion. I realized for the first time why he enjoyed selecting my clothes and pampering me. It went far beyond pleasure. This was Dev’s version of possessiveness. I was his—his to dress, to adorn, to please. He would select a navel ring, and every time he caught sight of it, he would feel a sense of satisfaction that I wore it to please him. Others could look at it and admire it, but he would know it was only there for him.
