Defiance (15 page)

Jordan
shook her head. “I can’t
leave my mother here.”

“Don’t worry about me,” Gretchen
said. “I can take care of myself.”

Mr. Meier stepped forward. “
I
will take care of her.”

Gretchen stared at him in surprise.

“Actually, there are places on
Earth that are habitable,”
Laith
said as he looked at
Jordan
’s
mother.
“Safer places than this camp.
Jordan told us,
and we began investigating. We’d like to take you somewhere and set you up with
enough wealth to sustain you.”

Gretchen stared at her daughter,
and then her gaze shifted over to look at Mr. Meier. “I think I’d like that.”

“And I think I’ll stay with you,”
Mr. Meier murmured.

Jordan
’s heart melted. Her mother
would be fine. She looked at her men and knew that, although the future would
be slightly unpredictable, there wasn’t any other place she wanted to be.

Epilogue

They had stayed on Earth long
enough to witness her mother’s marriage to Mr. Meier, and now they needed to
leave. Their new lives as freedom fighters were waiting.

Currently the ship was on autopilot, heading for the planet
Xyran
, as
Jordan
faced her two men.

“
Xyrans
mate by sharing blood.”
Laith
took hold of her hand, wrist side up. “This mixes our scents as a mark of
ownership. David and I are already blood-kin. I take you, Jordan
Kuper
of Earth, to be my mate.”

His fangs slid
along one side of her wrist. Her heart pounded as she waited for the pain, and
when he bit her, she couldn’t help the gasp that escaped her lips. She knew
what had been coming, and once she felt his tongue soothing the mark, she
figured her imagination had been worse than his bite.
Literally.

Then he held
his wrist up to her, and
Jordan
knew this was part of the ceremony. He used one of his fangs to cause a small
cut in his skin, and she drank, quickly, before she could think about it too
much. Then it was done, and she was glad she didn’t need to take more than a
few drops.

She turned to David,
and he smiled at her.

“I, David
Ballack
, take you, Jordan
Kuper
,”
David said softly.
“To be my constant friend, my faithful
partner, and my love from this day forward.”

“And I take
both of you, David
Ballack
and
Laith
,
as my mates,” she replied. “Husbands, as us humans say.”

Laith
bent his head and crashed his lips against hers. He
kissed her deeply, slipping his forked tongue into her mouth while he traced
the contours of her face with his fingers.

When he raised
his head, she immediately turned toward David, meshing her fingers in his hair
as she met his kiss with equal ferocity. The ache inside intensified, grew,
spreading throughout her whole body. Her hips gyrated against his.

Laith’s
fingers pulled at her tunic, all finesse gone. She
helped him as much as possible without breaking apart her kiss to David,
anxious to feel his hands on her breasts. As he found her nipples, tweaking
them, she began to pull apart David’s shirt. His chest was smooth to the touch,
muscular, and she delighted in the wicked sensation of being sandwiched between
her two strong
Xyrans
.

Laith
kissed the back of her neck and rubbed his cheek against the sensitive skin,
causing her to gasp. They all quickly undressed, and once they were naked,
Laith’s
hands slid around her. His hands cupped her
breasts, filling his palms with the heaviness of their weight. He teased the
nipples, and she thrust her chest out, wanting more, moaning as she broke the
kiss to let her head fall back onto his shoulder.

David’s hand
traveled down, and his finger slid between her folds. He found the little
bundle of nerves hidden within its hood and rubbed it while he pressed his
fingers inward. One finger bent, rubbing along the back wall of her pussy while
he continued to play with her clit. Her orgasm abruptly crashed over, liquid
pleasure surging through her veins.

 
“Now,
Laith
,” David said.

Laith
lifted her and laid her on the bed. Then he spread her legs wide and kissed her
inner thighs, working his way up until he latched onto her pussy. Her body
arched in pleasure as the dual movement at the tip of his tongue swept into her
channel, licking up and down. He found her clit and rubbed it gently with
circles, and just when she thought it couldn’t feel any better, he withdrew his
mouth.

“Now it’s time
to celebrate our bonding,”
Laith
told her.

 
He lay next to her and rolled her over onto
his body. His skin was
glowing
a deep amethyst color,
a beautiful flush of his arousal. David’s finger was at her back entrance, and his
thumb mimicked
Laith’s
pumping fingers inside her
pussy, prepping for penetration. Just the thought made her come unglued. Before
she even realized what was happening, her body exploded into a thousand pieces,
shattering her strength. Stars bloomed behind her eyes as
Laith
lifted her up. He widened her legs until she straddled his waist. She opened
her eyes and locked gazes with his as he slowly lowered her onto his cock.

He filled her completely, and he
held her still for a few minutes to allow her to adjust to his girth. A moment
later, she took the tentative initiative and rocked her hips. He gasped and
surged upward, impaling her onto his shaft.

Behind her, one of David’s fingers
eased into her rosette, eliciting a moan. Slowly another finger went in,
widening her, and the burning thrust took her breath away. He started
manipulating her body, adjusting her. He pushed her forward until she lay on
Laith
, her breasts flattened by his chest. David moved into
position behind her, and his hands gripped her hips. As he slowly teased her
rosette with the tip of his cock,
Laith
reached between
them to rub her clit. The burning returned, and
Jordan
held her breath, waiting for
the bite of pain to give way to pleasure.
Laith
pulled out of her a little to give David more room, and pleasure and pain
mingled together. A second later David’s cock popped through the tight ring to
slide in.

She felt full, almost stuffed, and
at first she didn’t find it all that comfortable. But
Laith
rotated his hips, hitting her sweet spot.
Jordan
gasped. “Oh my God, please,
move.
Both of you.”

 
Laith’s
hips began to
buck, and it took a moment for David to find a rhythm that worked. She bounced
between them, her hands resting on
Laith’s
shoulders
and her breasts pressed against his chest. Sweat rolled off their bodies,
breaths mingled together. No words were spoken, and they didn’t need them.

They moved in tandem, as one went
in the other pulled out, learning how to work together quickly. They all were
panting, moaning, and
Jordan
knew they were spiraling together. Suddenly she reached the plateau, and her
body flung off a precipice. Lights literally lit up behind her eyes as she
cried out in abandonment.

She felt David swell in her ass,
and just as he found his release, he bit her shoulder. She didn’t know if it
was hard enough to break the skin, but the pain only heightened her pleasure.
Laith
followed him. His cock exploded in her pussy, and his
fangs sank into her other shoulder. The sharp bite of pain mixed with the
exquisite pleasure, and it caused her body to ignite in one more climax. Bliss
poured through her, and she was vaguely aware when they retracted their fangs
and pulled from her body,

Right before she succumbed to
sleep,
Laith
and David held up their fingers to her. She
opened one eye and saw drops of red at the tips.

“
Open
,
Jordan
,”
Laith
commanded. “This will cement our bond.”

She did as he said, too tired to
ask any questions. They wiped their fingers on her tongue, and she swallowed
reflexively, the taste of metal filling her mouth.

“
Ew
,” she
said with a grimace. “Will I have to drink your blood every single time? I’m
not a vampire.”

“I do not know what that is.”

“An old Earth legend of creatures
who
live off blood,” David explained.

“No, we do not need to be
vampires,”
Laith
clarified.

She smiled.

David nuzzled her neck. “You’re
ours now.
Wife.”

She yawned and snuggled into their
arms. Yes.
Wife.
She quite liked the sound of that.
