The Three (40 page)

From the way Kael sucked in a breath, stilled her fingers, and glanced up at her, it was clear that she felt the same thing.

“One finger first?” Kael’s nostrils flared as she waited for Anna’s answer.

“Sure.” She kept her body relaxed, eyes locked onto Kael’s. “I know you won’t hurt me.”

Kael slid her fingertip down to play at Anna’s entrance. “Never.” She pressed into Anna slightly, then drew back, holding her gaze. “I want to make you feel good.”

“You do.” Anna ran her fingers over Kael’s head and down her cheek. She eased her lover’s face against her inner thigh. “I want you inside.”

Kael pressed the length of her index finger inside in one slow, deliberate movement. Anna’s mouth fell open as she accepted Kael into her body, and a soundless cry of pleasure fell from her lips. She was so wet that she barely felt the penetration and was able to concentrate entirely on the pleasant fullness she felt with Kael’s finger resting within her.

“Does that feel good, baby?” Kael held her finger steady, not moving. The effort of her restraint was palpable. “Do you like that?”

“Yes.” She squirmed on Kael’s finger. “So good.”

Kael withdrew her finger only to press it back inside again. “You feel like Elin,” she whispered. “But different.” She angled her finger and stroked Anna inside, finding a spot that made her gasp in muted surprise. “There you are.”

“Oh,” Anna panted. She’d never felt anything like what Kael was doing to her; the pleasure never ebbed, just flared up more intensely at every pass of Kael’s finger over the spot she rubbed. “Oh, Kael, I…what are you—”

“You like that?” Kael lifted her head from Anna’s thigh, grinning.

Anna moved her hips to meet Kael’s thrusts. “I…I…love…”

“That’s what I like to hear.” Kael withdrew her finger, and Anna whimpered. “I’m coming back with two, okay?”

Anna granted permission with a quiet nod, exhaling steadily. She bit her lip as Kael pushed back inside, surprised at the pleasure she felt in being fuller. Then she smiled, awed by her body’s response at being touched that way.

“That feels amazing.” Anna ran her fingers along the edge of Kael’s ear. “Come up here and kiss me while you touch me, baby. I want to taste your mouth.”

Kael surged up Anna’s body, two fingers buried deep between her thighs. She wiggled her fingers gently, and her mouth met Anna’s in a slow, lazy kiss. “I love you,” she murmured.

Anna felt herself contract around Kael’s fingers, and Kael groaned quietly. Brushing her lips against Kael’s, she murmured, “I love you, too.” She lay back and watched Kael’s eyes as her lover moved within her, as waves of pleasure rippled through her heavy-limbed body. Before long, she was rocking her hips to meet Kael’s gentle thrusts. “Baby, I…think I’m ready for more.”

Kael stilled her fingers, but kept them tucked snugly inside. Her heart pounded against Anna’s chest.

“You’re sure?”

“I’m sure.” She lifted her hips, drawing Kael’s fingers deeper. “Everything feels so good right now.”

“Okay.” To Anna’s surprise, Kael withdrew her fingers and rolled off. She lay on her back and gave Anna a cautious look. “I want you on top of me, baby, at first. That way you can…control things.”

Anna’s body warmed at the tender concern in Kael’s voice. She sat up and ran her hand down a muscular arm. Kael stroked Anna’s bare back with her fingers.

“May I take off your shorts?” Anna stared down at the dark cotton, stomach flip-flopping at the thought of what lay beneath. She was as excited as she was timid.

“Of course.” Kael lifted her hips with a patient grin.

Anna’s cheeks flushed as she hooked her thumbs in the waistband of Kael’s boxers and pulled them off.

Her eyes locked onto the dildo that was strapped to Kael’s hips, jutting out away from her body. She tossed the shorts aside and settled her hands on Kael’s thighs.

Kael shifted beneath Anna’s touch. “You okay, sweetheart?”

Anna swallowed. “It seems a little…big.”

“We don’t have to do this.” Kael laced her hands behind her head and gave Anna a crooked grin. “I would be perfectly happy to put my fingers back inside of you.”

“No.” Anna ran her fingers down the length of the dildo, then wrapped her hand around the base and met Kael’s eyes. “I want your cock inside of me.”

She settled on top of Kael, gasping at the way the dildo pressed into her belly.

Kael pulled her down into a tight hug. “Do you know how much I love you?”

Anna closed her eyes. “Yes.”

“Good.” Kael slid her hands down to cup Anna’s bottom, squeezing gently. “As long as you know.”

Anna nodded. She got onto her knees and planted one on either side of Kael’s narrow hips. “And do you know how much I love you?”

Kael gave her a happy nod. “Yes.”

With a pleased grin, Anna repeated, “Good.” Meeting Kael’s eyes, she reached down between their bodies and grasped the dildo in her hand. She bit her lip and guided the head to her entrance.

“Go slow,” Kael said. She squeezed Anna’s hip when she winced at the effort of trying to penetrate herself.

“Baby, go slow.”

Anna was determined to take Kael inside. Sweat beaded on her forehead as the head of the dildo stretched her open and she pressed the first inch into her body. She exhaled, wishing that her body would yield to the invasion.

“Don’t tense up,” Kael murmured. She rubbed her thumb over Anna’s clitoris, still swollen and wet. “Just relax, baby.”

Anna stopped concentrating on the slightly uncomfortable sensation of the dildo, now fixated solely on the bliss Kael was creating between her legs. She breathed deep and watched Kael’s thumb swirl through her wetness. “You’re so hard,” Kael said. “So swollen.”

Anna stared into Kael’s eyes. “Yes.” She realized that her hips were rocking against Kael’s hand and that the dildo that sat poised at her entrance was sliding deeper inside of her body. She gasped as she was entered, all of a sudden open and ready for Kael. Kael pulled Anna down against her chest again.

“Give yourself a minute to get used to it,” Kael murmured. She kissed Anna’s face and rubbed their cheeks together.

Anna nodded and pressed her lips against Kael’s temple. She brought her hands up and curled her fingers around Kael’s shoulders. Releasing a shaky breath, she willed her body to relax. Then she whimpered into Kael’s ear, surprised at a sudden revelation. “It feels good.”

Kael chuckled at Anna’s awed whisper. “That’s kind of what I was hoping would happen.” Anna sat up fully.

Kael was buried deep inside of her, and Anna loved the way she stared at their joining with inflamed indigo eyes. Instinctively, she rocked her hips, swaying against Kael’s abdomen. She could feel the length of Kael moving inside of her in time with her lazy rhythm.

Anna tipped her head back and moaned. “Oh, Kael.”

“Shh, baby,” Kael cautioned with a silly grin. “You were going to be quiet, remember?”

Anna blushed but never stopped moving. Having Kael inside of her lit fires deep in her belly, driving her to rock harder against her lover in desperation. Kael’s strong hands stayed busy, one pinching and tugging on Anna’s nipple, while the other snuck around to stroke Anna’s clit again. Anna’s mouth dropped open in pleasure.

“It feels…so…” she whispered under her breath, then gasped as Kael hit a rhythm that made her hips buck and jerk in reaction. “Oh, God…Kael, I’m gonna—”

“That’s right, sweetheart.” Kael thrust her hips upward, meeting Anna stroke for stroke. “Ride me, baby.

Does that feel good?”

Anna nodded, not trusting herself to speak. If she opened her mouth, she would scream.

“Are you going to come for me?”

Anna nodded again, then arched her back as Kael rubbed tiny circles around her aching clit, delivering a breath-stealing orgasm that Anna felt in places she hadn’t even known existed. Her muscles contracted around Kael’s cock, gripping and releasing. Baring her teeth, she rode it out in silence, grateful that Kael’s strong hands supported her trembling body.

When she recovered, she found herself cradled in Kael’s muscular arms. “That was amazing,” she said and sighed in contentment.

“Absolutely amazing,” Kael agreed. She moved her hands down to Anna’s bottom and pulled her closer. “I can’t believe how sexy you are.”

Only Elin had ever made her feel as safe as she did in that moment. “I can’t believe I was ever afraid of you,” Anna said. “When I first met you…but now that I know—” Her head was spinning.

“You were afraid of me?”

Anna couldn’t decide if Kael sounded confused or hurt. “Just a little. And not for very long.” Pulling back, she stared down at Kael solemnly. “I trust you with my life.”

Kael touched the side of Anna’s face. “I trust you with mine.”

“I want you on top of me now.”

Kael blinked at the quiet request. “Are you sure?”

“Very,” Anna said. “Do you think you could come that way?”

“Yes,” Kael said, and smiled shyly.

“Then do it. I want to feel your body on mine.”

Without a word, Kael engulfed Anna in her arms and rolled them over, still buried inside of her. The sudden change in position took Anna by surprise, and she needed a moment to adjust, fighting off a brief brush of panic at the vaguely familiar scenario. But it’s Kael, she reminded herself, and reached up to touch her lover’s lean face.

“Make love to me, tough guy.”

Kael grinned hard at the nickname and pressed her lips to Anna’s. Anna pushed her tongue inside of Kael’s mouth, groaning loud. Kael moved tentative hips, withdrawing from Anna, then pushing inside again.

Kael pulled back from their kiss. “Does that feel good?” She was panting, but she stopped at that single stroke.

“So good,” Anna whispered, full of wonder. She never knew it could be that good, that her entire body could feel so sensitized and alive. “Don’t stop.”

Kael began moving again, establishing a gentle cadence with her thrusts. She kept Anna’s mouth busy with kisses and moaned into the joining of their lips. Anna hugged Kael and spread her legs wide, eager for the pleasure that Kael’s body gave her. The base of the dildo bumped against Anna’s clit on every stroke, and she could tell from the way Kael ground against her that she was feeling the same sensations.

Kael picked up her pace. She broke a frantic, wet kiss, and gasped, “Still good?” Sweat dripped from her forehead and splashed onto Anna’s cheek.

“God, yes.” Her earlier climaxes had left her nerves singing and ready for more. “I think I could…”

Kael sucked at Anna’s throat as her hips continued to pound against her. “I’m going to come, baby. I’m gonna…baby, I—” Kael stopped speaking and gasped, bringing her mouth down to cover Anna’s. She cried out into their kiss, and that noise was what pushed Anna over the edge again a moment later.

Kael buried her face in Anna’s neck. She groaned, as if in pain. “I’m throbbing.”

“I’m done,” Anna said. She shifted beneath Kael, frowning at the dildo that still rested inside of her exhausted body. That last climax had been her limit for the night. “Out,” she instructed.

Kael laughed out loud and started a slow withdrawal with her hips. “That’s exactly what Elin always says.

One minute I’m a god, the next I’m an unwelcome guest.”

Anna groaned as Kael pulled out, then she closed her legs. “I still love you. I’m just…spent.”

“I understand.” Kael tugged her into a warm hug, then took her mouth in a languorous kiss.

When Anna pulled back, she took note of Kael’s flushed face and chest, her erratic breathing. “You’re not done, though, are you?”

“I’m okay.” Kael managed a weak smile.

“You need to come again.”

Chuckling, Kael said, “Busted.” She struggled out of the harness that was strapped to her hips. “Do you mind if I…I mean, if you’d just let me…” Kael blushed. “You could just raise your thigh…”

Anna curled her hand around the back of Kael’s neck and propped herself up on her elbow. “I watched Elin use her mouth on you once.” It was something she had wanted for so long, but had been afraid to ask. She didn’t know how Kael would react.

Kael’s cheeks turned a rosy shade of pink. “You want to do that?”

Anna gave her an enthusiastic nod. “You can’t imagine how much.”

Kael seemed to consider a moment, then said, “All right.”

“But only if you enjoy it,” Anna hastened to add. “I don’t want to do anything unless you’re going to like it.”

“I like it. It’s just…”

“What?”

“I don’t want to be on my back,” Kael muttered.

“That’s okay.” Anna stood, groaning as sore muscles began to announce themselves, then knelt on the carpeted floor. She lifted her eyes to Kael. “How about if I’m on my knees?”

It was the position she had seen Elin use to pleasure Kael. It was exactly how she had fantasized about tasting Kael herself.

Kael relaxed into an easy grin and climbed off the bed. “I’d like that a lot, sweetheart.”

Anna’s heart stuttered when Kael came to stand in front of her. She was eye level with neatly trimmed dark curls coated with sticky wetness, betraying her fierce excitement. On her knees, Anna could see Kael’s body as she never had before; dark pink labia that peeked out when Kael planted her feet apart on the floor, and when she reached down with one hand and spread herself open, a rosy, swollen clit that protruded from its hood in unashamed arousal.

Anna inhaled and licked her lips. She wondered how Kael would taste.

“You want it?” Kael threaded the fingers of her free hand through Anna’s hair.

“Yes.”

Kael urged her forward. “Taste me.”

Dipping her head between Kael’s thighs, Anna snaked out her tongue and took a long swipe up the length of slick, pink folds. Kael was coated with juices, fragrant with them. She tasted like Elin, but different. She was saltier, muskier. Delicious. Anna groaned when Kael pulled her face forward and forced her tongue deep into her wetness.
