Untamed Force (Force of Nature Series) (17 page)

“And I hope you know that you’re
cleaning this mess up.”

“Really? I do not think so.” She wrapped
her legs around his and then her arms around his neck. “How about we toss for
it?”

“Toss what?” He was having a hard time
concentrating on what she was saying the way she kept shifting under him. If
she kept that up he was never going to make it upstairs to their bedroom. “I
have a surprise upstairs for you.”

She pulled his mouth to hers. The kiss
was soft and too brief, but held a lot of power. “I like it here. And I still
want to explore you. You said that I could.” She ran her fingers down his neck
to his shoulders. When she tried to push him over he allowed himself to be
turned and she straddled him. She sat over his waist and fingered the buttons
on his shirt.

“May I unbutton this from you?” Her
voice was heavy, yet low. He could feel her need now and his body was feeding
from it. He nodded at her question.

“Yes. What is it you want from me, love?
You want me to lay here and let you touch me, or do I get to touch you as well?”
He wanted to touch her, but also knew that if he started he’d take over, and he
desperately wanted her to touch him.

“I would like for you to guide me to
pleasuring you. I want to touch, explore. I would like to taste your skin on
different areas of your lovely body.” She unbuttoned the first three buttons. “I
would like to try riding you. I have heard that it is an experience that one
does not forget.”

Her words did not match the woman that
sat over him. While what she said was seductive and bold, her hands and body
showed a woman without knowledge of what she wanted.

“It won’t be for us. I have to be naked
for you to ride me, as do you.” He reached up to pull her shirt over her head
and tossed it behind him. “Scoot down to my thighs and I’ll undo my pants.”

“I will do it.” She moved down to where
he’d told her to and held his breath when she undid his belt and then the snap
on his trousers. When the zipper went down and her fingers brushed across his
hard cock, he hissed out in pain.

Lifting his ass from the floor, she took
his pants to his calves, but left them there. Before he could tell her how to
proceed, she was wrapping her cool hand around his cock. He actually felt his
eyes roll to the back of his head.

“You are thick, are you not? And not at
all what I had thought a man would look like. It’s like velvet over steel, yet
you are so sensitive here as well.” He growled when she lowered her head to his
cock and licked. “You taste of male. Nature as well. I love the feel of your
tongue when you take me. It is so stimulating.”

“If you stimulate me much more, I’m
going to finish way before I wanted to.” She leaned down and took his engorged
head into her mouth. “Stacy.”

She took his breath away. And if he died
right here, right now, he’d be a very happy man. Before he could stop himself
he wound his fingers into her hair and held her to him tighter.

When she let his cock go he could see
her wolf crawl along her skin. His wolf responded as well. Letting go of her
hair in case he pulled her back down, he fisted his hands at his sides.

“I would like to ride you now.” She
moved up his body, narrowly missing his balls before she settled over him once
again. When she wrapped her fingers around him again and slowly lowered herself
over him he didn’t move. Didn’t so much as breathe. Afraid that he’d come with
even the slightest touch of her, he rocked up into her and stilled.

His shirt came open the rest of the way.
Her body moved in jerky movements at first so he wrapped his hands around her
tiny waist and showed her how to move so that they both enjoyed it.

She was an incredibly fast learner and
soon he was hanging on so that when he came, he didn’t shatter into a million
pieces.

“I’m coming.” Her shout of release
caught him by surprise and when she stiffened over him, throwing back her head,
he watched her orgasm take her. She was the most beautiful thing he’d ever
seen. When she collapsed over him he lifted her head by her hair and looked at
her dark eyes.

“I’m not nearly finished with you.”

She grinned at him.

“I would love to take you upstairs and
take you there, but I need to finish what you teased me to.”

“I would love that very much.” Before
she could say anything more he rolled her to her back and settled between her
legs. “My, but you are very fast.”

“Nope. Not with this. I’m going to go as
slow as I can, but I’m telling you right now, I want to pound you until you can’t
walk.”

She hummed her approval. “That sounds
very nice. What do I need to do for a good pounding?”

He stopped moving. Not because he wanted
to, but suddenly there was no blood in any other part of his body but his cock.
He could see her down on her knees and him behind her. He rolled off her so
quickly that she whimpered.

“On your knees and lower your head to
the floor.” Urgency was evident in her speed. She was in the position he’d
imagined and her ass was right in front of him. “I’m going to fuck you like
this, then I’m going to come deep in your pussy.”

“Oh yes. I would like that very much.”

His cock was straining almost to reach
her and he fisted it as he moved up behind her. Sliding into her heat he felt
her tighten around him. It wasn’t enough and he needed her now. Grabbing her
hips, he pulled her flush to him. Christ, he wasn’t going to last long.

Moving in and out of her, he watched her
breasts swing to and fro. Wishing he could pull one of her hard nipples into
his mouth and nip at her, he leaned down and laced her fingers into his as he
took her nearly to the floor.

“Dallas, please. Help me, please, to
come. I need to have a release.” He moved his hand down her body and then into
her soaking curls between her legs. One touch of her clit and she screamed out
his name.

He felt her milking him and, try as he might,
he couldn’t have stopped from joining her if he’d had a gun to his head. When
his release came he threw back his head and howled. Then lowered his head to
her shoulder and bit.

~~~

Waking when he picked her up, Stacy
snuggled into his arms. She loved this man and would do anything he wanted. And
if he ever wanted to let her explore him again, she would take him up on it. His
chuckle made her realize that she’d been talking out loud.

“You missed this.” He still held her as
he turned on the light. At first she didn’t see what he’d done to the room, but
after a few seconds, it all became clear. He’d actually been trying to seduce
her.

There were roses on the bed, hundreds of
petals, as well as about a dozen roses. And not just red ones either, dark
purples and blue, yellows and white. There was a mixture of the blooms on the
bed as well. And in the middle of the pillows there was a single red rose.

The fireplace fire was dying down. She
could feel the warmth all over the room and that’s when she found the bottle in
the champagne bucket. As well as a basket of cheeses and crackers and fruit.

“The ladies worked on the kitchen stuff
and I worked up here. Phil helped with the champagne too. He said women liked
to be wooed and that if I did this correctly he’d buy me a case. What do you
think this goes for?” He poured her a glass and then showed her a bottle. “Since
we both know how Phil is I’m assuming that he paid more than six bucks at the
gas station for it.”

Stacy laughed. He was trying to make up
to her. But she’d long since forgiven him and had been meaning to tell him she’d
been wrong. Maybe tomorrow. Or the next day. Alexis told her before she left
the studio that keeping a man guessing was half the fun. The rest was a battle.

“Phil is very frugal, but he is not
cheap. I like him. He is good to your sister.” She crawled up the bed and
yawned. “You have worn me out. I would love to have more of this wine, but I
fear that I will fall asleep in the bubbles.”

He took the glass from her and set both
hers and his on the night stand. He stood her up and pulled back the sheets. “Here,
you lie down and I’ll be right there beside you. And in the morning, if you
manage to be here when I wake, I will make it worth your while.”

He wiggled his brows at her and she
burst out laughing. “I will do that on one condition. You must not go down
after I fall asleep and clean up our mess. We will need to get to it in the
morning before any of your guests come in and see it.”

He nodded as he stretched out beside
her. “I love you, Stacy. More than I thought possible.”

“I love you too, Dallas. And will for
the rest of our days.” She closed her eyes when she heard him snore. As soon as
he had been asleep for a few minutes she turned her body to his and wrapped
herself around him. He pulled her closer even in his sleep.

Chapter 14

Rich moved his gun to the back of his
now clean pants. He was nearly to the Force place when he felt a familiar touch
to his mind. He wasn’t so much surprised as he was pissed off.

“I thought you dead.”
Hoped it,
actually. It would save him the trouble of killing him himself.
“Where are
you and how soon can you get to me? And by asking that, you know that I’m
ordering you to come to me now.”

Rich didn’t know where Harvey had been
staying, but had an idea it had been with the Force’s. He and Poor, the new
name he’d given to his other self, had had a long conversation about Harvey,
Austin, and the pack. Neither of them were very happy right now.

“
I’m not coming to you. Nor will I
ever. You have treated me badly for long enough. Now I do what I want.”

Rich stopped in mid-step. He couldn’t believe
what his brother was saying.

“And so you know, the pack here is well
aware of you living off the means of your daughter.”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.
I had you kill her long ago. Things like her shouldn’t be left to live.”
Rich moved to
sit near a tree.
“You come to me right now and I won’t make you suffer for
it. As for my daughter, when this is finished, and it will finish soon, you’ll
do as I told you and murder the bad seed and bury her with that bitch of a
mother of hers.”

“Stacy has taken a mate. Would you like
to know who the fates have chosen?”
Rich tried to think who Stacy was and
nearly asked him when he spoke again
. “Your daughter has done well for
herself. And with the added property that has come to her she will bring a
lovely dowry to her pack.”

“My daughter? I think not. Her mother laid
with another. That abomination will never take my name.”
He had a moment
of panic when he thought of his daughter, but dismissed it soon enough.
“Tell
me who her mate is so that you can have your say and come here. I’m nearly to
the—”

“She is mated to Dallas Force.”

Rich waited for the laughter. Waited in
vain for the “just kidding,” even though his brother had never had much of a
sense of humor. But nothing was forthcoming.

“You lie.” Rich realized he’d spoken out
loud then spoke to his brother
. “You lie. Why would she mate with my mortal
enemy? She would never do that to her own father.”

Laughter touched his mind. Something his
brother hadn’t done in, well, decades. Rich waited for him to calm before he
spoke again. It was then that he realized that Harvey sounded almost sane.

“You tell me that she is dead to you in
one breath then say that she wouldn’t dishonor you, her father, in the next. You
are going to have to do better than that, brother dear. And I do not lie.”
There was a
hardness there, something that Rich had never heard from his younger brother.
“And the vampire you sent to kill her is now in the custody of the council. And
they have retrieved her household.”

He’d forgotten about her. He couldn’t
recall her name at the moment, but he’d kidnapped her and had tried to kill her
mate. The human had been much harder to get to than he would have first though.
Humans, he thought, shouldn’t be allowed to turn on wolves. They should be
simply grateful that his kind let the human race live at all.

“She served her purpose.”
Rich stood up
again and started walking toward the Force compound.
“I had a good fuck and
now they know that I mean business.”

He’d not had sex with anyone really. He’d
thought about it, but once he’d locked them all in the shed out back, he’d been
so worn out that he’d barely been able to hold his head up. He’d ended up
taking a nap on the cold ground and had waked only when he heard a car in the
drive. He’d hidden while some pimply-faced kid had gotten out of the car and
had knocked on the door. Rich supposed he’d been there to collect the paper
bill. Stupid humans. They could actually watch it on the television. Why read
it when it was unnecessary?

Harvey didn’t answer him. Rich was
afraid that his brother was really not coming to him. He needed him, more than
he’d ever thought possible. He was about to beg him to come to the forest with
him when Harvey spoke again.
