Runes (17 page)

She flipped into Sean’s arms and kissed him passionately on the mouth and then climbed off the bed to stand between Will’s legs. He splayed his fingers across her ass cheeks, pulling her near.

We’ll take it slow. We won’t do anything we aren’t all comfortable with,
she said into his mind.

Just then a knock sounded at the door, and he crossed to admit the room service cart. The heavenly scent of grilled beef filled the room, and they fell on it like starvelings, removing the silver domes with cries of delight and groans of longing. Then they sat at the table together.

Three sizzling steaks dripping with onions and mushrooms sat before them, with sides of rice and vegetables and chocolate tortes for dessert. Will dug a bottle of red wine from a bucket of ice and filled their glasses.

Before eating, she relaxed and studied each of her men. They were tired and dirty. Sean had several gashes, and Will sported a split lip as well as the bullet graze, crusted now with blood. She could feel that the swelling in her eye had gone down, but she had no desire to look into a mirror.

Sean dug into his steak with fervor, but he paused mid-bite to look at her. “Are you okay?”

“Yes,” she said quietly. “Just admiring you both. And thinking we need to set a few rules before this goes any further.”

Will’s fork clattered to his plate. “Shoot.”

“Well, I want you both to know how much I love you. And it’s obvious your love for me defies convention. However, I feel how tense you both are, and I want to ease you. This isn’t a competition. We all win or no one wins.”

They both nodded seriously.

“The last thing I want is for one of you to be hurt. But the fact is, if I’m with you, I want to make love to you. I want to be touched. Kissed. And I want to look into your eyes and share a glass of wine,” she said, lifting her glass in gesture. “While I’m with one of you, I want the other nearby, if you feel comfortable. Is that all right?”

Again they nodded. She set aside her glass and touched each of their hands. “Thank you for saving me. I can’t begin to think what would have happened—”

“It didn’t—”

“Don’t think of it—”

They spoke over one another, breaking the tension. Then they ate and talked companionably about the beauty of the chateau, the waterfall and the surrounding mountain range. Will suggested they remain here until they got 'accustomed to the situation,' and Sean agreed.

When her belly was bursting, she announced she was taking a hot shower. They stood to follow her. She paused at the bathroom door and wagged a finger. “No, no,” she said. “I’m doing this solo.”

“What did she mean? Solo?” asked Sean as the door closed. He couldn’t stop thinking of the sight of her round little ass disappearing into the bathroom.

Will arched a long auburn eyebrow. “What do you suppose?”

“Like, touching herself?” he said softly.

“Probably. She loves to masturbate, or didn’t you know?” His tone held a challenge.

Sean answered, facing off against Will, chests almost touching. “Let’s get something straight, brother. You suggested this arrangement. If you can’t handle it, back out now. I’ll be happy to step into your shoes.”

Will’s eyes narrowed. “You’d like that. You’re just waiting for the opportunity to shove me out of the picture.”

“Yeah, well, why not? I had her first.”

Anger flared between them. Their eyes locked in mutual combat. Then Sean thought of Evangeline’s words and backed off. “Look,” he said. “I want this to work out. It’s going to take some getting used to. Now let’s let her take a shower and a much needed rest before we go after her like mad dogs.”

Will grudgingly laughed. “I’ll go downstairs to the shops and see if I can round up some clothes. You coming?”

Sean’s head swayed between the locked bathroom door and Will. “Honestly, I’d rather go share that shower. But I’ll settle for your company.”

As they navigated the hallway, Sean couldn’t help wondering if Evangeline was indeed under the stream of water with her fingers buried in her pussy. And he couldn’t stop thinking Will knew because he had twenty-four hour access to her mind.

Will walked slightly ahead of him, his back ramrod straight and his shoulders set. His auburn hair curled against the dirty neck of his T-shirt. His strides were long and as confident as a big cat’s. When they reached the elevator, he boarded without a backward glance.

“What do you do for a living?” Sean asked.

Will glanced at him from the corner of his eye. “A little of everything. But I’m very independent. I don’t need to work.”

Sean felt like growling. So he had old money. His tongue burned to ask about his house and car, but he squelched it. Evangeline wouldn’t want a fight. But thinking of her in that shower was driving him nuts. She’d never masturbated for him, and it hurt that she’d done it for Will. How would it feel to watch her finger her pussy for her other lover? Sean seethed. Every shift of Will’s body spoke of breeding, strength and confidence. In the glossy elevator walls he studied their reflections, comparing himself. Will was slightly taller, but Sean was broader. Both had stacked abs and bulging pects. But Sean’s shoulders and biceps were coiled muscle where Will’s were lean and hard. Will’s hips were tight and trim, and Sean’s were wider from the years of kicking he’d practiced.

Will met his gaze in the dim reflection, and one corner of his mouth lifted in a smirk. Sean wanted to smash that damn self-satisfied look off his face.

They stepped out of the elevator, instantly bathed in the waterfall’s humid air. God, Sean hoped his hair didn’t start curling. As a child, his sister had teased him mercilessly about how girlish it looked, and he’d not gotten over it.

“You know what size to buy Evangeline? Because she’s tiny. She struggles to find things that fit,” Sean told him. He didn’t know why he felt the need to bait him, but he did.

Will shot him a searing look. “Of course I do. She’s my immortal mate.”

“You don’t need to rub it in. She’s practically my wife,” Sean countered, glaring.

A short laugh burst from Will. He pushed through the glass door of an expensive shop. The clothing was geared toward a more conservative woman than Evangeline. Will searched the racks, and Sean went to the accessories. He selected a violet silk scarf and a pair of killer heels. The sales lady brought her size, and he returned to Will, who was empty-handed.

“You’re right. There’s not much in her size. But she needs clothes whether we stay or travel. What do you suggest?”

 “I say we get a man’s extra-small white dress shirt, and she wears it as a dress. And the rest of the time, we keep her nude.”

When they returned, Evangeline lay stretched across the bed naked. Her head was pillowed on her arm, her hair still wet and her eyes closed. Will quietly closed the door, and she didn’t rouse from her sleep.

Sean crossed to her at once. The blistered mark of his insignia on her breast pulled him forward. He sank to the mattress, careful not to jar her, and sat watching her sleep.

Will kicked off his shoes and approached on soft feet. He stopped next to the bed, his leg brushing against Sean’s. “Don’t wake her.”

Sean bristled. “I had no intention of waking her,” he said, and climbed off the bed. He shut himself in the bathroom, deeply inhaling the scents of shower gel, shampoo and Evangeline’s underlying musk. Emotions warred within him, anger, need, love and passion. Foremost was his desire to eliminate Will Cochran. Yet the memory of his long thigh brushing Sean’s leg provided unwanted stimulation.

He stripped off his filthy clothes. Crumbles of dirt from the hole were lodged in his waistband and fell to the white marble tile. He cranked on the shower full blast and stood bare before the full-length mirror, assessing his manhood, thinking of Will’s. Fuck that. He didn’t give a rip about Will’s package.

Disgusted, he jumped into the shower. The steam cleared his head. By the time he’d lathered and rinsed off, he felt calmer. Less agitated. And besides, Will would need to shower, leaving Sean alone with Evangeline. No way in hell would he make love to her while Will looked on, getting his rocks off.

He came out, towel draped around his hips, hair shaggy and soaked. He glanced about the room for the bag of purchases.

“Right here,” Will said quietly, unfolding himself from the chair opposite the bed where he kept guard over their mutual love. He passed Sean the bag. Their fingers brushed in the exchange, and their eyes met with a clash. Beneath the soggy towel, Sean’s rod stirred.

“You better shower too,” he said, confused by the sensation running through his loins.

Will leaned closer as if inhaling. “Right. I’ll do that.” At the bathroom door, he turned back and said, “Don’t wake her.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

Sean didn’t need to wake her. Her startling blue eyes blinked at him from the bed. She stretched deliciously, arching her back slightly. Her knees parted, inviting him to take a peek. He was shocked to see she’d shaved her pussy bare.

He dove between her thighs, breathing the sweet smell of perfumed cunt. Fresh skin, begging his kiss. “You’re ready for me, I see. God, baby, what possessed you to shave it?” he asked, nuzzling her inner thighs.

Her eyes glowed from her position below him. “New events have taken place. I wanted to represent the change.”

His palm caressed the smooth crest where her curls used to grow. Her legs parted to allow him a good view. Her lips were tight and splayed by the hard nub of her clit.

“Touch it, please,” she whispered, leaning on one elbow to watch him.

She didn’t need to ask him twice. He skimmed the sensitive flesh with his beard-rough jaw. Juices gleamed between her lips. Her heady scent filled his nostrils, dizzying him with pleasure.

The sight of his big thumb against the pad of her white flesh excited him. Beneath the towel he was rock hard. His cock danced against his belly, threatening rupture. And when he dipped his head and tasted her slit, he moaned.

Her head fell back and her breath was a sharp rasp. He’d never seen her so wet, and he lapped it up hungrily. The tip of his erection rubbed against the rough towel, dripping pre-come. He searched upward and found her nipples. At the first pinch she screamed for more. Suddenly he grew very aware of Will still in the other room and was driven to prove how much he could please her.

He drove his tongue deep into her honey hole, twisting and fucking her. Then he laved her sensitive pleasure nub once more, sucking it like a little cock.

The sound of the shower ceased, and Sean continued to plunder her pussy. Her legs hooked over his shoulders, driving her hips into his mouth. She gasped and cried out for more, her fingers curling into his hair.

The need to enter her was so great he thought he’d burst any moment. And when the bathroom door opened, and he knew Will stood there, nude, watching him fuck Evangeline, a strange surge of excitement gripped him and he nearly came.

He lifted her hips higher and withdrew his mouth to allow Will to glimpse the treasure he had gained. His eyes met the burning gaze of his adversary, and then he plunged his tongue into her dripping pussy again.

She shivered, a sign of her impending release. Her nipples swelled and darkened beneath his fingers. She grew rigid as the explosion struck her. Come shot into his mouth and he sucked it all up. Her cunt pulsed against his tongue as he kept fucking her.

And then she grabbed his head and drew him up the length of her body. He dropped the towel and her hot thighs enveloped him. For a moment he knelt over her, poised to enter, allowing Will to take in the hard length of his shaft, thick and pulsing. His eyes dropped to Will’s cock, erect and long. A drop of pre-come glistened at the tip.

Evangeline beckoned Will closer and he walked forward like a zombie, staring between Sean’s throbbing erection and Evangeline’s dripping, bare pussy.

"Watch us, Will, and show us how much you like it,” she said. Her husky voice and Will’s level gaze made Sean break out in goosebumps.

Will stood at the side of the bed inches from both of them. His rod pulsed up and down with need. The drop of pre-come ran down the purple head. He tore his gaze away and met Evangeline’s. She was slowly caressing her nipples. The tip of her little pink tongue shot out and wet the tip of one.

Maddened, Sean thrust into her. They both exclaimed at the sharp invasion. Afraid he’d let go prematurely, he stayed stock still. Will gave an all over shudder and grabbed his own cock with both hands.

God, how Sean loved seeing that. The bold strokes of a man two-fisting his cock. Will rolled the rim through his tight fist, belly taut, thighs hard. His wet hair dripped into one eye and he tossed his head. Drops of water splattered the plush carpet.

Sean began to move. Evangeline’s tight sheath enveloped him. Hot and unbearably wet, he sought to drive deeper, farther than ever before. His thrusts lifted her hips from the bed, and he heard her gasps. He opened his eyes to see her gaze was riveted on Will. Their eyes were locked in a mental lovemaking as Sean filled her and Will felt through her and she through him.

Unable to stop himself, he watched Will’s long fingers clasped about his pulsing cock. His balls were drawn up tight, sprinkled with auburn hair. Sean licked his lips.

“That’s it, Will. Show me how much you love watching us. Let me see that come fly. Give it to me. Put it into my mouth,” Evangeline was saying.

Her hot words sent Sean over the edge. Again and again, he rammed his rod into her, his huge spurts filling her. Still thrusting, he watched as her eyes rolled back in her head. Her body splintered around him as a shattering orgasm swept her.

A cry tore from Will, and the steaming load streamed out of his penis, spurting over Evangeline’s mouth and chin. She held it on her tongue, and Will dipped forward and kissed her long and deep.

Sean pulled out of her and drew her into his arms. He wanted to kiss her too, but was leery of tasting Will’s load. So he kissed her tattoo and then her breasts, showering them with attention while Will went down between her legs.

With a shock of excitement, Sean realized Will was eating his come out of her pussy. He moaned and mouthed it, his eyes hot with hunger. Sean worked over her tits, pinching one while sucking the other, and then she drew Will to her breast, replacing his fingers. Together they sucked and licked her peaks.

Will tore his mouth from her to say, “Beautiful woman. Let me fuck you.”
