Shifted Temptations (32 page)

“Come on, let’s get out of here. I’m tired of waiting.” His breath smelled strongly of alcohol and I almost gagged when he smiled, showing off yellowing teeth.

“I am ready to have a little fun, aren’t you?” He asked as he
lean in and nibbled on my ear.

I pulled away and felt my stomach convulse ready
to empty its contents at any moment. Fear had me trembling, but I was trying hard not show him.

“Awe it’s okay, my little slut. I know you just gave birth, but I don’t mind. It will be more painful for you, but that will
only make it more fun for me.”

He laughed and pulled me up from my seat and began dragging me to
wards the exit.

I struggled with all I had, putting my entire weight
into it. I tried to plant my feet, but they just drug across the floor as he jerked me behind him. Panic speared through me and tears began to run down my cheeks. I just kept thinking over and over, ‘This can’t be happening!’

I dug my fingernails into Lee’s arm, hoping he would loosen his grip so that I could escape. I yanked so hard, I thought I was going pulled my arm out of my socket, but he ignored everything I did as he made a b-line towards the door only a few yards in front of us.

Two loud bangs had Lee stopping in his tracks. I looked around as the crowd quieted and searched for the noise. Two more bangs, sounding closer and suspiciously like gunshots, had the crowd screaming in panic.

They all began to run around, looking for an exit. I only saw three. Behind where the audience sat were two doors leading to an exit and another was on the other side of the arena. That was where Jordan and Alex had come in.

It was like a stamped, as the onlookers rushed towards where I stood next to Lee. He never moved, so the crowd bumped and jostled me in their frightened state. I was pissed that those people could be so rude and I winced as my foot was stepped on for the fourth time.

Suddenly, I found myself stumbling and falling to the ground. I cried out and cover my head as the crazy crowd continued to trample over me. That was when I realized I was using both my arms and was free from Lee.

I pushed the legs of the people around me and struggled to my feet. Searching through the crowd, I tried to see which way to go, but I was too short.  The people were crowded around me and the sound was deafening. There were more and more gunshots making the people scream and clutch their kids.

The fact that they brought their kids to watch such a fight disgusted me, but I pushed the thought away and just began moving. I
pressed through the mass of running bodies, not knowing where to go. All I knew was that I had to find my men.

A sudden sharp pain had me screaming as I was jerked back
by my hair. I landed against a hard male chest.

“
Tsk, tsk, it’s not time to go yet.”

At the sound of Alexander’s voice, I almost sagged with relief that he was not Lee. I may still be in trouble, but I knew he wasn’t interested in the revolting things Lee had promised. At that thought, I began to struggle, praying he would not take me back to that repulsive man.

Again, the effort was useless as he turned us around and began walking. The crowd had thinned and the arena was beginning to empty. I tripped over my feet countless times, but Alexander fingers tighten in my hair painfully, not allowing me to fall.

As the last of the people flew past us and out of the arena, Alexander halted. The sight before me brought tears to
my eyes.

Jordan and Alex stood naked, each with a gun pointed at Alexander. It would have been funny looking if I hadn
’t been so happy to see them. They were dirty and bloody, but otherwise unhurt.

My gaze went to the two men beside them. When my eyes fell on Bear, I cried out in relief. I had thought Paul had killed him. I had seen his slumped, unmoving form on the couch when Paul dragged me out the house and
I had cried thinking I had lost another friend.

The other man spoke and I turned to look at the large black man standing next to Bear. He was bald, with silver hoops in his ears and had the biggest muscles I had eve
r seen on a man other than Bear.

He also was naked and held a gun. Without meaning to, my gaze roamed down his body. My eyes widen and e
ven with the fear of being a hostage, I could not keep the blush from my face. I looked away quickly. All I could think was, ‘Wow!’

“Okay, Alexander, it’s over. Let the girl go.” His vo
ice was deep and smooth, with an underlying hint of danger.

Alexander laughed and pulled my hair harshly making my head tilt back until I was looking up at the dark ceiling. Something sharp pressed against my throat and I gasped. I had not seen him holding
a knife and it didn’t feel like cold steel. It felt warm, somewhat rough and extremely sharp.

“I wouldn’t do that if I were you,” I heard Jordan growl.

“And why not?” Alexander chuckled. “She will help me get away and once I am safe, I am sure I can find
multiple
uses for her.”

“Why? Why are you doing this? The fighting, the drugs, all of it, why?”

Alex’s voice was rough and I could hear sadness mixed with his anger. It must have been so hard on both of my men to have such horrid fathers.

“The fights were very lucrative and if you were any son of mine you would have relished being in that trench. We could have made a lot of money together son
, but no, you had to be so righteous,” he spat.

“And as for the drugs, well you know how I’ve always felt about them. The disgusting stuff that humans use to cloud their minds and weaken their bodies, was and still is abhorrent in my eyes.” Alexander was shaking with anger and a whimper escaped my lips as the sharp object at my neck pressed harder.

“But when a teenage shifter got curious and I saw the effect cocaine had on us, well, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity like that, now could I? I immediately saw the advantage of such knowledge."

"
Wilde Mountain has always been nothing but a backwoods town, but with the money and status that would come from the fights, I could build this community back up. We would be a better, stronger race.”

He huffed as if he was out of breath. It had been a long speech, but I thought it was more that he was excited about his screwed up plan
s for the future.

I heard growling and I wished desperately that I could see what was happening. My back and neck ached and my head was beginning to pound in a harsh tempo. I had only gotten out of the hospital
from birthing Ava a few days before and my body was weak and tired. I was trembling with the need for rest.

“
Ah Paul, my son, what are you doing back so soon? Did you get the baby? Never mind, we have more important matters now,” Alexander practically cooed.

I froze at the sound of Paul’s name. The odds were lessening for my men and their team. Would they be able to take down both Paul and Alexander while he held me? I shivered and wanted to pull away so badly, but did not dare move. A little more pressure and I would have a sliced neck.

There was a click and I felt Alexander stiffen, which had me stiffening out of fear of the unknown. Damn, I wished I could see.

“What is this?” He yelled.

“I’m sorry...father,” Paul replied, his voice cold as ice. “Actually, no, I’m not sorry. I think you’ve done enough damage in this life time and I won’t be your lap boy any longer.”

“You’re just like your brother! You are nothing but a weakling! None of you will stop me, not with her in your way.”

With a roar, Alexander began backing up, pulling me with him.

I began to panic, but there was nothing I could do. I couldn’t move without cutt
ing myself on the sharp point at my throat. I was panting, and breathing hard, trying to think of a way to escape, when a gunshot echoed throughout the empty arena.

Alexander had stopped and I stood still, looking up at the ceiling, tears streaming my down my face. Then, suddenly, I was falling. I slid from his grasp, feeling a sharp burn slice across my neck. My hands went to my throat
instinctively as I hit the floor.

I faced a motionless Alexander. He lay flat on the floor, his arms and legs spread wide and a perfectly rounded bullet hole in the center of his forehead. His eyes stared dully at the ceiling.

I saw feet moving towards me and I could hear voices, but I did not know what they were saying. Everything sounded muffled and I was feeling dizzy. I must have been in shock.

B
lood trickling through my fingers and I realized it could be worse than shock. Jordan and Alex came into my line of sight. They were yelling something, but I couldn’t hear them. I could only see there gorgeous mouths moving.

God, they were hot, I thought
with a giggle. I was definitely in shock.

“I love you,” I said to them with a small smile before I passed out cold.

Epilogue ~

I was ha
ving the most delicious dream. I was lying in bed, moaning as Alex’s teeth scraped gently across my clit. His hands trailed teasingly up my inner thighs, making my skin tingle. My hips gyrated, seeking more contact as he began leisurely stroking his tongue over my sensitive flesh, lapping up my wetness.

I wanted to grab his head and grind myself against him, but I had to make do with fisting the cotton sheets
, as Jordan was in my way. He leaned over me, licking a path up the center of my breasts. He licked, sucked and nibbled his way across my chest, but never where I wanted him most.

I groaned as I arched my back, trying to make him take an aching nipple into his mouth. They were hard and pleading for his hot kisses. My head whipped back and forth in frustrat
ion. They were going to kill me; I just knew it.

Jordan chuckled arrogantly, but I had no time to complain. He latched onto a nipple and sucked so hard, I nearly leaped off the bed it felt so good. The pleasant jolt had me opening my eyes to find I was not
having a delicious dream; I was having a delicious life.

My men draped over my body, pleasing me in the most sinful ways. I smiled as I let go of the sheets and grasped Jordan’s head. I tugged, pulling him off my breast. His mouth released the nipple with
a pop and his blue eyes gazed at me hotly.

I urged him closer and my mouth fused with his. The kiss was scorching,
passionate and wet. His tongue stroked the inside of my mouth just has Alex inserted a finger inside me slowly. I gasped and moan at the dual sensations. It had been too long since I had felt like this.

The doctor had said I had to wait six weeks before we could resume sex. Jordan and Alex had gone with me to my check up the day before and when the doctor gave us clearance for intimacy, I had seen the heated and mischievous looks in their eyes. Obviously, they decided to surprise me in the most luscious way.

Alex’s finger moved gently in and out, while Jordan continued to plunger my lips. My hands gripped Jordan’s head tighter, my fingers fisting into his hair. He had let it grow out enough that I finally had something to hold on to as we kissed.

A second finger eased into my hot core causing my hips to bump and grind against Alex’s hand
and moan into Jordan’s mouth. Alex’s thumb rubbed slow circles over my clit as he pumped his fingers in and out.

“How do
es that feel?” Alex asked.

His voice was deep and a little breathless. I knew the feeling. I could barely catch my breath as I began to pant with need.

“So good,” was all I could manage to gasp as I tore my lips reluctantly away from Jordan’s mouth.

I tried to
pull him back to my quivering lips, but he moved away causing me to whimper my displeasure. He smiled teasingly at my pout and leaned in to lick at a nipple before pulling away completely.

Alex move away as well and I felt the loss as my body wept with need. They had me so wound up I thought I would combust if I didn’t release soon.

Alex placed wet kisses across my stomach and I tried to wiggle away. I was embarrassed about the stretch marks that ran across my lower abdomen and sides. I also hadn’t lost all of the weight from my pregnancy yet.

Alex pushed my hands away gently and continued to kiss my stomach making me squirm.
“You’re beautiful, Sam,” he whispered between kisses.

I opened my mouth to disagree, but was stopped as he swiftly slid up my body to take my lips with his.
With a groan, I wrapped my arms around him, pressing our bodies more tightly together. I loved the feel of his silky chest hairs rubbing against my harden nipples.

I felt his cock searching for my opening and I lifted my hips ready for him to take me. As Alex’s tongues dove into mouth, his cock began sliding inside of me slowly.

It was a tight fit and there was a slight burn as he worked his way into my wet core. I spread my legs wider, hoping to make more room.
