Unrest (3 page)

Gripping her hair, he guided her movements, alternately thrusting deep, then shallow, never letting her get accustomed to him. Sometimes he made her gag, his cock slipping to the back of her throat.

“That’s it, little Tori. Take him all the way down. Suck him good. Get him ready to fill your sweet little ass.” At Gray’s words, Victoria seemed even more greedy to take him, sucking and surging her head forward to take more and more of him. Once her nose met his skin, Raven held her there a few seconds, savoring the feel of being surrounded by her heat.

“Ah, gods,” he groaned. “Yes!”

Raven pulled out, fully intending to throttle Gray if he backed out and didn’t let him have his pleasure.

Gray crawled up her body, covering hers with his much bigger one. With one savage thrust, he surged inside her dripping cunt. Victoria screamed, wrapping her legs around the wolf so that her heels dug into his muscled ass. Her nails dug into Gray’s back, scoring along the tanned skin.

He didn’t give her a chance to get comfortable, though. In one smooth move, Gray flipped them over, his arm still clamped around her waist and back, holding her to him possessively as he thrust inside her in a smooth, swift stroke.

“Now, my beauty, you’re about to be stuffed so full of wolf cock, you won’t be able to walk straight for a fucking week.” Gray’s rough voice coiled inside Raven’s belly, stirring the wolf inside him. This was a pack ready to take a woman in heat. The pull was way too strong. Stronger than it should have been perhaps, but Raven suspected whatever calamity was getting ready to happen, the approaching storm, had something to do with that as well.

Raven’s gaze darted to the bedside table. Sure enough, the woman had been prepared. A bottle of lubricant sat just waiting for him. He snatched it, flipping open the top and squeezing a generous portion onto his fingers. With ease born of experience, Raven slipped two fingers inside her anus, scissoring them open to spread her before adding more lubricant to his fingers and the opening of her ass.

“Gray!” she cried.

“Is he filling you deliciously?” Gray asked. “Does it burn?”

“Yes! Ah, God, yes!”

“He’s going to seat himself inside that tight little ass, then we’re going to fuck you until you scream,” Gray bit out, his voice even rougher. If he hadn’t been collared, Raven had no doubt the man would be on the verge of shifting to claim his mate.

Before Victoria had a chance to respond, Raven wet his cock liberally before slipping the head inside.

Bliss! She clamped down on him in reflex, making the fit that much more snug. Most women would have shuddered in pain. After all, Raven wasn’t a small man. But Victoria seemed to relish the bite, enjoying the burn and stretching. The little human got off on the rough treatment, getting her pleasure from the pain.

Gray gripped her hair, angling her head so she had to look at him. “Don’t tense,” he commanded. “Push out against him so we can get this part over with. I want to fuck you hard.”

With a gasp, she did. Raven slid in easily, groaning in pleasure as he gripped one of her hips in a punishing hold. When his claws tried to extend to sink into the woman’s flesh, Gray growled, snarling at him in possessive anger. “No, wolf! She’s mine to mark!”

Instantly Raven backed off, shaking himself as he took back his control. With a deep breath, he started to move. He and Gray soon found a rhythm that suited the woman between them. When she squirmed and shuddered, calling Gray’s name as she dug her nails into his chest, Raven knew they had it right. He also knew there was no way he was going to last. Victoria was just too tight. Too responsive. Too lusty.

Gritting his teeth, Raven pounded into Victoria, though she had eyes only for Gray. The woman thrashed between them, throwing her head back until Raven gripped her hair as he rode her. She only begged for more, taking all they had to give her.

When Raven knew he was on the verge of coming, he met Gray’s eyes, nodding to the other wolf.

“Come then, brother,” he said in that same gruff, sex-filled voice. “Fill her ass while I fill her cunt.”

With a hoarse shout, Raven did just that, coming so hard his vision dimmed and stars swam before his eyes. He felt Gray swelling inside Victoria as well, preparing to orgasm. When he did, Victoria screamed, her own climax milking them for everything they had left.

When the tremors subsided, Raven collapsed onto the bed beside the couple. Gray kissed Victoria slowly, coaxing her back to life before either of them had truly come down from their orgasmic high. Already he moved inside her again, though at a leisurely pace.

Gray rolled her over to cover Victoria’s body with his own, soft commands for her to focus on only him. When he did, Raven nearly groaned. He was weak as a newborn cub. How was he supposed to make his way back to the catacombs? And Sina?

Sliding off the bed to stand as best as his shaky legs would let him, Raven dressed quickly. The wrap they’d been allowed wasn’t nearly enough to cover him properly, but Raven would use all his considerable hunting skills to keep silent and to the shadows. With any luck, he’d reach Sina within the hour.

Getting off of Sky City proved easier than he would have thought. It was nothing to steal coins and take a sky cab back to the lowlands. Getting into Sina’s section of the catacombs was more difficult. Due to the nature of the slaves housed there, the guard was heavier than other places.

When the ground rumbled ominously, Raven threw caution to the wind. Grabbing one soldier from behind, he snagged his sword and plunged it into the man’s side before the guard could utter more than a startled cry. Searching the guard, Raven found a dagger, but no keys to the cells and cursed under his breath. He’d have to risk taking down another guard. This time, he’d have to choose more carefully. He couldn’t afford to kill too many or risk being caught.

Patience paid off. Killing a second guard, this time slitting his throat from behind, he took the man’s keys. The cell where the cats were being held was even more abysmal than most places in the catacombs. Because the shifters placed with the cats were feral, no one bothered to clean the cells much, or take care the women had a place to sleep.

He found a group of them huddled together in the far corner, Sina among them.

“Go,” he urged the other women as he took Sina’s hand. “There’s not much time. If you want out of this place, stay to the shadows and make no noise.”

Logically, he knew many of them would be recaptured. But he had to worry about himself and the woman he needed with everything in him to protect. As they cleared the doorway and took to the deeper hallways, the ground quaked again beneath them, this time stronger than the other tremors.

“It’s coming…” Sina whimpered fearfully.

Had Raven been in his wolf form, his hackles would have stood straight up. They were out of time. Remembering his promise to Brita, he paused by the cell of one of the only friends he had in this place.

“Zeb,” he whispered, hoping the older wolf was awake. A shifting inside the cell told him he was.

“If you’re caught, pup…”

“I know.” Raven handed him the keys through the bars. “There’s a woman in Sky City. Her name is Brita.”

“I know of her. Her mother is an insatiable little minx.” The older wolf sounded as if he had first-hand knowledge, but Raven plowed on instead of questioning him further.

“She’s part cat. She promised to help me escape in return for my protection. Circumstances dictated I advance my escape plans, and I can’t take her with me. Can you help?”

Zeb moved to the doorway then, accepting the keys through the bar. Light from a sconce fell across his battle-scarred face, revealing a toothy grin that was anything but pleasant. “Consider her…mine.”

Raven had a moment to wonder if this had been a wise idea, but he had no time to plan Brita’s escape any better. He knew the older wolf was honorable and was placing Brita’s life in his hands.

“Swear you’ll get her to safety.”

“I swear to do my best,” he replied, holding Raven’s gaze. But there was something in those golden eyes that put Raven on edge. Or maybe it was the impending storm. Whatever it was, he had no choice. He and Sina were leaving. Or they would die trying.

And the storm continued to build...
