Jaguar Secrets (6 page)

“Sure, buddy.”

Unclicking
Cammi’s
seat
beat, he slid her to the middle so Nate could get in. Luca took a moment to
scan around the car. He grinned at the fact Nate had found the perfect spot to
park, completely hidden by trees and shrub on the edge of the reserve. Focusing
back on Cammi, his breath caught. Nate had her shirt and bra pulled down and
his mouth wrapped around her breast.

“Oh, damn, that feels so good.”

If she felt good with one being suckled, she’d feel
even better with both getting some love. Gently, but quickly sliding the
material off her other shoulder he revealed her lush breast.

“Oh,
darlin
’ you are so
beautiful.”

He lowered to her, taking her nipple to the back of his
mouth. Her fingers wound their way into his hair and held him to her. Her hips
began rocking, and he lowered his hand to her pants to undo them. As he slid
the zipper
dow
,n
the scent
of her arousal bloomed in the car. Both he and Nate growled low as their bodies
reacted. Luca released her breast and moved away from her to watch as he slid
his hand beneath her panties and reveled in the slickness he found. He flicked
her clit lightly before he pressed one long finger deep inside her core. His
gaze moved up her body. Her back was arched as she threw her head back on a
gasp. Nate had taken over from him and was lavishing attention on both her
breasts as Cammi began to ride his finger. He slipped a second one deep within
her heat and he moved to take her mouth with his.

“I need to taste her again. Luca, help me get her
naked.”

Nate’s voice was low and raspy with arousal. Slowly,
Luca slid his hand from within her, making sure to brush over her clit on his
way out of her jeans.

“Won’t … someone … see?”

Cammi’s
breathy words wound him higher and, unable to stop himself, he lifted
his fingers and licked them clean. Like Nate, he needed to taste her again.

“We’re in thick scrub on the border of our property
and the reserve. No one will see us, sugar.”

She seemed to relax a little at Nate’s words, so Luca
sat on the other side against the door to give Nate the most room. He wrapped
his hands around her waist and lifted her up enough that Nate could tug her
jeans and panties off. As they slid down her long legs he had to bite his
tongue to prevent himself coming in his pants like a young teenage boy. Damn,
they really need to mate with her.

Luca sat her down so her back was against his chest as
he sat with his torso twisted to the side. Wrapping his arm under her right
knee, he lifted it out and up so Nate would have plenty of space—not to mention
an awesome view—and
Cammi’s
muscles wouldn’t lock up
from the strain of holding her leg raised.

Cammi wanted to be serious with these men today. She
hadn’t wanted to just melt into a puddle. She had questions, dammit! But she
couldn’t resist them. Their smooth charm and gentle caresses would always be
her undoing. She watched through hooded lids as Nate lowered himself over the rear
bench seat of the car. He kissed his way up the inside of her left leg that was
pressed against the backrest of the seat. The whole time his gaze held hers
until he reached her upper thigh, then he focused on her exposed sex. With Luca
holding her right leg out, she was spread wide open for him.
Like a gift.
Luca continued to kiss and
lick at her neck, shoulder and ear. Her brain so overloaded with passion, she
had to concentrate just to keep breathing.

“So pretty…”

With a low growl Nate took her in his mouth and began
tormenting her with his incredibly talented tongue and lips. She arched back
into Luca as she instantly flew high, close to a climax.

“What are you doing to me?”

She couldn’t cope, couldn’t understand why she reacted
like she did to these men when no other man had ever caught her interest to
this intensity.

“
We’re loving
you, Cammi.
We’re your
mates,
we will always give you what you
need. And
darlin
’, you need to come.
Right now.”

As if she
were
a puppet and
he controlled her strings, she flew apart. Nate continued to lap at her as she
shook and floated her way back to reality. With one last long lick, Nate moved
up her body, teasing and kissing his way until he could take her mouth. He took
possession of her lips. It was deep and passionate and she shivered as she
caught a little of herself on his tongue. It started the coil in her womb to
tighten all over again.

“You taste divine, mate. I could lap at your core all
day and never get enough.”

“Don’t. Say things. Like that.”

She shuddered between them. Their hot naked chests
sandwiched her in.
Wonder if either of
them even
own
a shirt?

“Why not?
It’s the truth.”

“Because I can’t think when you have me so turned on
all the damn time!”

Cammi let her anger and frustration push through her
arousal, but the men wouldn’t release her from between them. After a moment
Nate did lean back, although before she could push off Luca’s body, his hand
slid over her hip and Luca pressed two thick fingers deep in her body.

“Oh, damn…”

Her body lit up and she couldn’t prevent her hips from
rocking against his sensual touch. Nate took her breasts in his hands, kneading
them and tweaking her nipples. Just as Luca did earlier he gently bit into her
shoulder and she flew apart again. Stars overtook her vision as she screamed
out their names. Her body was liquid fire and when she came back to land she
slumped against Luca as her eyelids slid closed.

Fingers stroking her face and neck woke her from
slumber. She turned away from the caress and nuzzled into the delicious
smelling skin now against her face. She hummed as she gently bit before laying
a kiss against a very hard male nipple. Hands gripped her shoulders and moved
her back as Luca growled low at her.

“You little hell cat.
Woke up with your claws out, did you?”

His tone was tense, but teasing. She blinked the sleep
from her eyes to discover she sat cuddled into Luca’s lap and was completely
dressed. Busy searching for Nate, she jumped in shock as the door behind her
opened and Nate grabbed her from Luca’s lap.

She squeaked in surprise at the sudden movement. These
men moved her around like she was a doll.

“Stop teasing Luca when we can’t follow through on it,
sugar.”

He gave her a firm passionate kiss before setting her
feet on the ground.

“We’re at
Jace
and Tilly’s
place. I rang and let them know we’re coming, so let’s head in, shall we?”

Still trying to clear the arousal from her mind that
Nate’s kiss caused, Cammi allowed Nate and Luca to take her hands and lead her
up to a stunning ranch house with a wide veranda around the front.

“Oh, I love these big old homestead houses.”

Both men squeezed her hands and Luca leaned down to
whisper in her ear. “Wait till you see our place, then. It’s bigger than this
one and has a veranda the whole way around, not just the front like
Jace’s
.”

She sighed at the thought.

“So you too live together, then?”

“Sure do, we’ve been best friends since we were cubs.”

She felt heat rise to her cheeks as her thoughts ran
wild. “And you’re just friends? Or are there benefits involved?”

Both men stopped on a dime before turning their
shocked stares onto her face.

“Just friends,
darlin
’.
We have never had any kind of ‘benefits’ between us,
and we won’t ever. We’re co-mates to you, Cammi. That doesn’t make us mates to
each other.”

“Oh.
Um.
Okay.”

Her face heated further and she cursed that she’d
brought it up at all.

“Why’d you ask, sugar? Do you like the idea of us
together and with you?”

“I don’t know. I just needed to know. I’ve never
really thought about two men together.” She shrugged her shoulders, trying to
dismiss the topic. “Forget I said anything. I want to talk to Tilly.”

Tim paced around the house trying to control his
temper. He couldn’t believe Cammi had ignored his warning. Damn those shifters
and their brainwashing. He knew he couldn’t just go get her. For one, the
reserve was massive and he had no idea where they were hiking, and secondly, he
knew firsthand how the bastards dealt with intruders on their own turf. He had
no desire to be
mauled
to the brink of death a second
time. He ran his hand down his chest and ribs, feeling the ridges of the scarred
claw marks through his thin t-shirt.

“Dammit,
Cammi
!”

He couldn’t just sit here and wait for her. He’d go
crazy. Grabbing his phone, keys and a towel he slammed out the front door and
headed toward the beach. A run in the shallow water would free his mind and
body. It always did. He made his way to the jetty and snuck up underneath to
stash his towel and shoes where no one would see and steal them. Then he jogged
down to the water’s edge and let the cool ocean water flow over his feet and
ankles. He walked for a bit, simply enjoying the sensation of the sand against
his soles and between his toes. He headed out of the water to more solid ground
and took off for a run. With the sea breeze in his hair and sound of his feet
slapping against the wet sand, Tim let all his worries float free.

Cammi was right. It was her life, and she had a right
to make her own choices. No matter how wrong they were. He knew that. But she
was like a little sister to him, and he couldn’t just leave her to their mercy
when he knew what they could do in a rage. What if she got mauled? Tim wasn’t
sure she’d survive it, physically or emotionally.

Before long, he had returned to the jetty. Retrieving
his things, he sat to dry off his feet and pull on his socks and shoes. As he
was tying up his laces, he spotted a black kitten climbing over the rocks. He
froze as he took in the animal. It looked like any young cat does, except for
the fact it was one damn big kitten. Its eyes were wide in the innocent way
young animals had as it climbed and fell, purring as he played.

What’s the
bet
this little thing
is really one baby wild cat? He slowly gathered up his towel and crept over to
the creature. Making sure to stay out of its sight, he got as close as he could
before he threw the towel over it and wrapped it tightly. He made sure its face
was free enough to breathe, while its body firmly wrapped so it couldn’t move.

“I know you
ain’t
just an
ordinary cat.
So, no funny business.
And that includes
shifting form. Got it?”

Tim felt a pang of guilt over the fear in the young
animal’s eyes. But he couldn’t afford to give in. This might be his only chance
to get Cammi returned to him. “So long as Cammi isn’t hurt, you won’t be either.”

He rushed home as fast as he could, making sure to
keep a firm grip on the now growling cat. It might be little, but it still had
claws. Once back at the house he pulled out the old possum trap from the shed.
It looked like a wire cage when the trap door was down and would hold the
kitten safely—and hopefully keep it confined enough to prevent it from shifting
to a human. Putting the towel and animal in, he made sure the cage was securely
closed before he pulled out his phone. Selecting the camera, he got ready to
take a photo of the kitten. It had crawled free of the towel and stood hissing
at Tim.
Whatever.
He snapped the shot and attached it
to a message.
Now.
Who to send it to?

He didn’t have a number for either of
Cammi’s
men. He did get hold of
Jace’s
sometime back, although he was certain that wouldn’t end well. Maybe he’d just
send it to Cammi? The men probably had her phone anyway. Deciding that was
best, he typed out a message.

I believe I
found something of yours today. Return Cammi and it’s all yours.

Simple yet clear.
With a little nervousness, he hit send and watched as the phone
processed the command. No turning back now.

Chapter
Four

Cammi stopped to turn her face up to the sky. The sun
heated her skin, and she smiled as she felt free and happy. Hiking through the
reserve had always been her favorite escape.

She was glad she’d had a chance to talk with Tilly
privately. Tilly told her how sorry she was that Tim had been hurt and agreed
that
Jace’s
caveman routine didn’t help things one
bit. Tilly told her how, after taking her from Tim,
Jace
had left
Ceduna
. He’d headed north deep into the
Outback to keep her secluded from any other male. Tilly hadn’t wanted to know
him. She’d seen the first blows of his attack on Tim before she’d fainted and
couldn’t even look at him without hatred for it. It took
Jace
over a year to have a full conversation with her that didn’t end with her
storming off.
