Melissa's Acceptance (8 page)

Melissa went wild. The first touch of his tongue on her throbbing clit had her bucking her hips up into his mouth, silently begging for more. And he didn’t disappoint her. He clasped her hips more firmly, as if trying to hold her still, and then applied more pressure to her clit with his tongue.

She was on a sensory overload. Luke was suckling her nipples, alternating between each breast while Damian licked her clit until her cream was running from her slick sheath in a steady stream.

Damian licked her from ass to clit, running his tongue up and down in between her slick folds. He adjusted his hold on her to keep her legs wide, but also to keep her from bucking him off when her hips thrust up again. She felt so wild and couldn’t help but to react to her body’s natural instincts.

Damian moved one of his arms from around one of her legs and began to push one of his large fingers into her pussy. He gently penetrated her with the tip of his middle finger until it was embedded up to the second knuckle. She’d never felt such sweet bliss and was mindless in her need. When he started a slow rhythm sliding his finger in and out of her slick channel, she moaned out loud and her pussy clenched down as if trying to pull his finger in deeper, or to prevent him from leaving. She wasn’t sure which, and with each exquisite sensation her mind shut down even more. When her muscles released their tight grip on his finger, he withdrew slightly and then he added another finger, pressing them deeper and stroking her internal walls with each pass.

Melissa gasped and flinched when she felt a slight pinching pain and then sighed as he pulled back a bit and the pain eased. Her mind kicked into gear for a moment and she wondered if what she felt was Damian touching her hymen. She wasn’t even sure she had one left, so maybe it was because her muscles were so tight since they’d never been breached before. When his tongue began to move faster over her clit, all thoughts floated from her mind and she gave herself up into Damian and Luke’s care.

Her body was a mass of aching need and she knew only these two men could ease the throbbing deep inside her.

His fingers stroked in and out of her cunt, sliding back and forth, causing a conflagration to build up inside her until she thought she’d go mad. But when he twisted his fingers around so that his palm was facing up toward the ceiling and he rubbed over a very sensitive spot inside she nearly shot off the bed, and she wondered if he’d found the G-spot she’d heard other women talking about.

Then all thought flew from her head again when Damian continued to massage that spot with the pads of his fingers.

Luke leaned over her and consumed her mouth with his own, sliding his tongue into her mouth and kissing her with a hungry carnality. Nipping and suckling at her lower lip, then sliding his tongue along hers, he pinched her nipples between his thumbs and index fingers.

When she felt her muscles begin to tighten around Damian’s fingers, he plunged them in deep and she felt a pinching, burning pain and she knew he had broken through what there was of her hymen. But the pleasure swamping her far outweighed the pain and she gasped for air just as she rocketed to the stratosphere. Her scream of completion was loud even to her own ears as she shook and quivered, quavered and quaked with a rapture so intense she saw stars. Cream gushed from her pussy, coating her inner thighs, and no doubt Damian’s hand, too. As she drifted back down to Earth, her senses kicked in again and she could hear Luke and Damian panting right along with her.

Damian and Luke ran soothing hands up and down her limbs as if trying to bring her back down from her climactic high.

“How do you feel, baby?” Damian asked in a raspy voice.

“Fantastic. I can’t believe…He was wrong.” Melissa moaned when Damian withdrew his fingers from her now-sensitive pussy and she couldn’t prevent a smile from forming on her lips. She’d heard that sex could be mind blowing, but never thought to experience such rapture herself. Now that she’d had a taste, she wanted more. When she looked at Damian and then Luke, they looked a little worried. “Why do you ask?”

“I was hoping you weren’t feeling too sore since I just took your virginity,” Damian replied

“There was only a bit of pain, but the pleasure…Oh my God. If I’d known how good it could be I may have done this before.”

Luke and Damian growled and when she met their gazes they looked a little pissed, but Damian’s stare was more intense and he even looked a little hurt. Melissa went back over what she’d said in her head and realized how that had sounded. No wonder they didn’t look happy. If what they said was true and she was their mate, they wouldn’t want to even think about her being with any other man.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean that the way it sounded.”

Damian’s expression eased and he smiled down at her. “I’m sorry too, baby. I guess I’m just feeling a little possessive of you right now.”

“We both are,” Luke said, and caressed a hand over her belly.

Melissa gave an exuberant laugh. “It was wonderful. No, wonderful doesn’t even begin to describe how you made me feel.”

“Glad to hear it, Mel,” Damian said, and when she saw his hands move down toward his crotch, she watched as he covered his cock with latex. “Do you want me, baby? Do you want me to put my cock in that hot, wet pussy and show you how much better I can make you feel?”

Melissa’s just-satiated libido kicked up a gear and her pussy clenched, releasing more juice. She was about to open her mouth and reply but Damian placed a finger over her lips.

“We both want to make love with you, Melissa. Will you let us fuck you at the same time?”

Damian pressed a little firmer on her mouth when she would have replied. “Before you answer, you should know that if you let us love you, we are also going to claim you. Be very sure of what your answer is because if we continue, there will be no going back.”

He finally removed his finger from her mouth and sat back between her thighs waiting for her to answer.

Melissa wanted them to love her but she wasn’t sure she was ready to be a mate. She didn’t know them very well and if she went ahead with this, she could be setting herself up for a world of trouble. What if their wolves were the ones who wanted a deeper connection with her, but not the men? What if she agreed to this and when they got to know her more, they ended up disliking her?

What if…what if…what if…

Could she really walk away from them without letting them make love to her? Could she really walk out that door and not regret her decision for the rest of her life? She didn’t think so.

“Do you think it’s possible to do this without claiming me?” Melissa asked the question swirling around and around in her mind and then waited with bated breath for their answers.

“Honey, we’re werewolves,” Luke said. “Our natural inclination is to claim our mate when we make love. If that is what you want we can try, but there is no way we can promise our wolves won’t take over once we’re inside you.”

“Luke’s right.” Damian’s hand landed on her knee. “The decision is yours to make, but we can’t promise our wolves won’t claim you. If you agree to us making love to you then you need to agree to us marking you, claiming you as our mate.”

“Will I be able to go home if you claim me?”

It was then that Damian realized that Melissa didn’t really understand that when a werewolf claimed his mate, it was permanent. He sighed with resignation and removed the condom from his hard, aching cock.

“What are you doing?” Melissa asked.

“You’re not ready for this, baby.” Damian got off the end of the bed and walked toward the bathroom. He paused in the doorway and looked back over his shoulder. “Why don’t you get dressed and come out to the kitchen. We need to talk some more.”

He walked into the bathroom, disposed of the condom, turned the shower on and stepped under the icy cold water. How long he stood under the stream of water he had no idea, but it didn’t help one damn bit. His cock was still hard as stone and his balls were aching. Disappointment filled his gut into a tight knot, but Damian knew he’d done the right thing by walking away.

If he and Luke had made love to their mate and ended up claiming her without her really understanding what was happening, there would have been hell to pay. He had a feeling if they had gone ahead and loved Melissa they would have ended up losing her altogether. And that was something he couldn’t have endured.

With a sigh he turned the water off, dried, and dressed. When he stepped out into the bedroom, the lingering scent of his mate’s cream assailed his senses and his wolf began pushing at him again. How much longer could he continue to hold his animal off? Maybe he and Luke should just let her go home and court her slowly. If that was the only way he and his brother could end up with her by their sides, after a slow, gentle courting, then so be it.

He entered the kitchen to find Melissa sitting at the table, sipping from a mug of coffee. Luke was nowhere in sight. He let his wolf come to the forefront and used his enhanced hearing to find his brother. When he heard the water running through the pipes he knew that Luke was in the other bathroom.

Melissa kept her head down, her gaze on the mug she had her hands wrapped around, and he wondered if he’d hurt her feelings by calling a halt to their lovemaking. After pouring himself some coffee, he sat down next to her. He wanted to talk to her and put her at ease but figured it would be better to wait until Luke was there, too.

Just as that thought finished coalescing, Luke arrived and after getting himself a drink and his brother sat on Melissa’s other side.

“What do you want from me?” Melissa asked as she lifted her head and glanced toward Luke and then him.

“You,” Damian answered, succinctly and unequivocally.

“I was willing…”

“We want your heart, too, sweetheart,” Luke said. “Not just your body.”

Melissa frowned as if she was processing what Luke had just said, and then she sat further back in her seat and crossed her arms beneath her breasts. The move was defensive and he wondered if they had just blown any chance they had with her. An ache formed over his heart and it was really hard not to place his hand there and try to rub it away.

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

Damian was glad that she was finally asking questions. Didn’t that mean that she was interested in them?
God, I hope so.

“We are the security for the pack,” Damian answered. “Our jobs are to maintain the security systems and make sure that the boundaries surrounding the property are safe and secure at all times. We set up rotations for patrols and we also make sure that if our Alpha, Betas and queen go out, they have guards with them.”

“But how do you earn…Never mind.”

“How do we earn money?” Damian asked the question he thought she was going to. At her nod, he relaxed a little more. Maybe their mate was worried that they wouldn’t be able to take care of her financially. “You have every right to ask. The pack has several businesses around the country and we each get a stipend from the profits. We have more than enough money to get whatever you want.”

“Shit, that makes me sound so mercenary. I’m sorry. I don’t mean to sound greedy or snobby.”

Luke leaned forward, uncrossed her arms from her chest, and held onto one of her hands. “We would never think that, sweetheart. Don’t worry so much, we know you aren’t either of those things.”

“What do you do, baby?”

“I’m a kindergarten teacher.”

Damian smiled. He could just imagine her laughing, teaching and playing with the kids in her care and enjoying every minute of it. His mate had a big heart and he hoped that one day soon she would let him and Luke into her heart, too.

“Our Alpha was talking about building a school on pack land. The pack is growing and more pups are being born every day. I’m sure if you asked he would be delighted to have you working in the school.”

Melissa waved a hand in the air as if dismissing his idea and his stomach felt like it dropped. He was going to have to be careful to keep his feelings hidden so that Melissa didn’t feel too pressured. Damian just hoped that none of his emotions showed on his face.

“What do you do when you aren’t working?” she asked.

“We like to hang out at the Shifter Inn and play pool, but we spend most of our spare time running in our wolf forms, playing.”

Melissa tilted her head to the side. The action reminded him of his and his brother’s animal.

“Playing?”

“Hunting small game and chasing each other.”

“What’s it like?”

Damian cocked an eyebrow in question.

“Running through the forest in your wolf form.”

“Freeing,” Luke said, and smiled at Damian. “Everything smells so much better. We move faster and can circumvent trees at exceptional speeds without slowing down. Having four legs has its advantages.”

“I’ll bet,” Melissa said. “Would I be able to still see my sister?”

His mate’s switch in topics had Damian’s head spinning for a moment. “Of course you can. We would never interfere with your relationship with your sister. What’s her name? Is she younger or older? What does she do? Will she be adverse to you being with more than one man…that is, if you decide you want to be with us?”

“No, I don’t think she would. As long as that’s what I wanted and love was involved, I don’t see Sara making a fuss.” Melissa went on to explain how Sara had raised her from a young teen and how they had lost their parents. The more she told them, the more Damian understood why she wouldn’t want to lose contact with her sister. She was more like a mother to Melissa than a sibling. More tension eased from his body and he relaxed back in his seat.

He watched as Melissa’s pupils dilated and her nostrils flared as she inhaled. She lowered her head again but Damian knew she could smell their mating musk. Her nipples were hard little buds poking against the material of her shirt, and when she crossed her legs, she squeezed them together as if trying to appease the ache in her pussy. He inhaled deeply and nearly groaned when he smelled her desire. When he looked at Luke, he saw that his brother was also aware of her lust.
