Leena's Men (5 page)

Leena stood perfectly still and absorbed the sensation.

Craig gently cupped her cheek as he ended the kiss. “Napping is sliding down on my priority list.”

“What you choose to do once I leave is of course completely up to you.” Two can play at this game. “Just remember, you’re not at full strength.”

Adam took a step toward them. “Feel free to hang around and find out. I think, even in our weakened state, you’d be happy to have stayed, angel.”

Or even better, three. Vibrant images of Adam and Craig making love with each other, and with her, stole her breath away. She needed to make a quick exit before common sense deserted her, too. These men had suffered a trauma and were in the process of healing. Leena understood the ultimate futility of fighting the will of the Gods, but she refused to behave in a manner she knew to be inappropriate at the moment.

“Ah, the male ego. What a wondrous, oft annoying, attribute,” she lamented dramatically.

“I’ll be around. You know how to get a hold of me.”

As soon as the door closed, Adam made a beeline into the bathroom.

“What the hell?” Craig asked.

“You’d better be naked and on that bed in a hot second,” he ordered without stopping.

There were three containers on the shelf in the shower stall, and four on the counter by the washbasin. With the help of some water, he quickly figured out which were soaps. He then ruled out the product that had a strong odor of menthol and the one that was a gritty paste. That left two very lube-like choices. Adam grabbed the larger container and stalked back into the bedroom.

The bed coverings were in a pile on the floor. Craig was sprawled in all of his chiseled perfection in the middle of the bed, stroking his rigid cock. Their eyes met and Craig held out his arms in invitation. Adam dropped the lube next to Craig’s hip, crawled on the bed between his legs and blanketed Craig’s body with his own. He kissed the forehead, cheeks and adorable chin dimple of the man he loved with all his heart before capturing his mouth. Their teeth knocked as they kissed and wriggled against one another.

Adam licked and nipped down Craig’s body, giving special attention to Craig’s ultra sensitive nipples and the skin just above his neatly trimmed pubic hair. He wrapped his hand around the base of his partner’s erection and sucked the bulbous head into his mouth.

“Mmm,” Craig moaned, grabbing Adam’s hair while thrusting his hips upward. “Fuck, yes…not…gonna…last…long.”

Adam grinned around his girth without breaking the rhythm of the blowjob. He knew exactly how close Craig was to coming and why. They’d narrowly escaped death, been scared and injured and a fascinating, gorgeous woman was exuding sexuality all up in their space.

Pretty much every emotional button had been officially pushed. Later, they could figure shit out.

Now was about validating they were alive and sating indescribable desire.

He cupped Craig’s balls, which were already drawn up tight to his body. He took his shaft to the back of his throat and held him there, glorying in being filled with his succulent dick.

Craig tightened his grip in Adam’s hair and gave an authoritative tug. He needed no further encouragement to take his ministrations to the next level. Craig’s whimpers of delight and incoherent mumblings were music to his ears. When Craig came, his entire body shook with the force of it. Adam eagerly swallowed every drop of his cum.

“That was incredible,” Craig announced, breathing heavily.

Adam sat back on his knees. His engorged cock pointed skyward. With shaking hands, he twisted open to top of the lube and poured a generous amount into his palm. Craig sat up and joined him in rubbing the clear gel along his length. When he started to roll to his side, Adam pushed against his shoulder.

“Nope, stay on your back.” He grabbed a pillow and shoved it under his ass.

Craig spread open his legs with his feet planted flat on the mattress. Adam tortured them both by slowly circling his anus with two coated fingers before sliding them through the tight entrance. He stroked in and out until he was certain Craig was well prepared. He grabbed him behind his knees, pressing his legs up and out, opening him, and rested his throbbing dick head against his hole.

In one powerful thrust, Adam surged forward until his balls slapped Craig’s ass. He cried out and grabbed onto his biceps. “Hard, God, I’m on fire for you.” Craig’s nails dug into his skin.

Adam set a frenzied pace, slamming back and forth and grunting loudly. Sweat dripped down the sides of his face, and his muscles tensed with his effort to stave off his release for as long as possible. Craig’s channel gripped him like a vise, causing his cock to swell in appreciation. He let loose and allowed his orgasm to explode free. It ripped through him from the top of his head to the tips of his toes. It was his turn to yell in ecstasy.

“Love ya,” Craig whispered, holding him in his arms after he collapsed on top of him, still buried in his body.

“I love you, too.”

“I feel like a million credits,” Adam said, walking up behind Craig and draping his arms over his shoulders.

“So do I. Damn, isn’t this amazing, Ad?”

“Yeah.”

They were standing at the floor to ceiling window. The early morning sky was cloudless, and more green than blue in hue. High overhead, large creatures flew in wide circles, and just beyond the glass, brightly colored insects were going about their buggy business. A breeze moved some of the branches and leaves of the towering foliage, and shadows cast by the unusual rock formations decorated the pale tan sand that covered the ground.

“I wonder if it’s cooler, being so early?” Craig said, leaning back against him.

“Let’s find out.” He flipped the latch and swung open the middle panel. The air that swooshed in was at a decidedly more comfortable temperature than it had been in the late afternoon the day before, though it was still quite warm. “At least it’s a dry heat,” he joked.

“Do you think Leena’s sleeping?”

“Well, we can either use a com and risk waking her up or, and this gets my vote, do a little innocent wandering around and see what we discover.”

“Before we do that, I’m having some really weird feelings I want to discuss,” Craig announced, turning toward him.

Adam wasn’t surprised by either his direct approach or desire to verbalize his emotions; it was Craig’s way of dealing. He was, however, completely taken aback by his own pretty strong yen to chat. “Weird and good, right? It’s like nervous anticipation for something I really, really want all mixed up with a sense of, crap, I don’t know…serenity.”

“It’s happening to you, too, I knew it.” Craig started pacing the room. “The dreams you had when we were in the hospital, they were with Leena and me, right?”

“Hell, yes,” Adam confirmed.

“And they were about way more than just sex.” He stopped and stared at him.

Flashes of his dream scenes played in Adam’s mind; the three of them fishing from a boat on a river, piloting a ship on a delivery, laughing together while doing nothing in particular. The vignettes of them sharing everyday experiences had filled him with happiness, contentment and love. “Definitely.”

“I had one where we were shopping in an outdoor market, picking out home stuff, and we were having a ball doing it. What the fuck? Our forte with the women is in the loving-then-leaving department.”

Adam inwardly cringed. “Thanks for making us sound like giant pricks.”

“We’ve had our reasons, damn good reasons,” Craig said vehemently. “Since the Zelsha debacle, have you ever seriously considered changing our duo into a trio again?” Many years before, they had thought Zelsha might be a woman they could settle down with; they’d been very wrong.

“Nope, never, and now I can’t stop thinking about it.”

“Me, either. So why now? Why this woman? She feels so familiar to me but how can that be? I don’t
know
her. What do you think it all means?”

“I have no idea,” Adam answered honestly. “But I’m having the same reactions.”

“At first, I tried chalking it up to being grateful to her for saving us. It isn’t. It’s deeper.

Does that make sense?” Craig asked.

“Totally, which is completely bizarre by itself.” Adam attached a communicator on the waistband of his pants and held out the other to Craig. “We better not start off by breaking her rules.”

The door across the hall was wide open, revealing a sparsely furnished bedroom. There was only one other door on the long hallway, and it was partially ajar. Adam gave a soft knock.

When silence ensued, he pushed it open.
Leena’s room
. Vases of flowers and large pots filled with greenery were artfully arranged throughout the enormous room. Stunning paintings of landscapes depicting different terrains and seasons decorated the walls. A few pairs of shoes were jumbled together against one wall, a small reading tablet was on the bedside table and the not fully closed panel on the far side of the room revealed shelves with folded clothing.

“That’s a, ah, sizeable bed,” Craig commented quietly.

“No shit,” Adam agreed. “We could all be spread in different directions and still have room to spare.”

“I’m picturing us in the middle of that mattress all tangled up together.”

“If I do that, I may not be able to control myself when we find her. Ravishing our hostess on first sight most likely isn’t acceptable behavior.”

Adam pulled the door into its previous position and continued into the living area, which he’d paid no attention to yesterday. The space was welcoming; a nice intermingling of pillow laden lounging furniture, sleek angular tables and two tech stations.

Leena’s laughter drifted out from the kitchen. Adam smiled as they moved toward the joyous, melodic sound.

“Stop, Caris, I can’t take any more, I might have just cracked a rib.”

“I wish you could have seen his face when what I was saying finally registered.”

Adam held his arm in front of Craig, stopping him, and raised the index finger of his other hand to his lips. Craig frowned but stayed still and silent.

“You should have taken an image of it for me.”

Adam could hear the humor in Leena’s voice.

“I was too busy getting him to sit down before he fell down, and then there was an immediate need for me to divest him of his communicator, and convince him that this news isn’t his to share with your parents.”

“Gods, please tell me you succeeded.”

“It wasn’t easy, but yes, honey, I did.”

“Good because I’d be extremely angry if he disrupted their vacation for no reason.”

“Your fathers and mother will not be pleased if they hear of this from anyone other than you.”

Craig mouthed the word “fathers” with a questioning look. Adam shrugged his shoulder.

“There is no
this
.”

“You’re being obstinate just for the sake of doing it. Embrace your good fortune, Leena.

I’m sure most of us will reserve our comments regarding the irony of your situation for conversations held behind your back.”

“I’m signing off now, Caris.”

“I think we’ve found her.” Adam announced their presence before they strolled into the kitchen. “Morning, angel.”

Leena stood quickly from her chair at the table. Her cheeks had a slight pink tinge. “Good morning. I hope you slept well. How are you feeling?”

“Fantastic,” Craig answered.

A smile lit up her face and Adam was bowled over by an intense desire to touch her.

Again she was wearing a dress that accentuated her full breasts and left a whole lot of shapely leg showing.

“Do you start your day with a large meal?” she asked, walking to the prep area.

“Usually our breakfast consists of copious amounts of coffee only,” Adam said, eying the large carafe with steam wafting from the spout that sat on the counter. “Whatcha got brewing over there?”

“Chorba. It has a mild stimulating effect when served warm. I take it with a splash of goffa cream.”

“Sounds perfect.”

She prepared and handed them steaming mugs. Adam gave his a sniff then took a sip. It tasted like spiced hot chocolate.

“This is delicious.”

“But not enough to start the day with,” Leena stated. “Try one of these.” She pulled two small rectangular bars out of the refrigerator unit. “They’re rich in nutrients.”

“You’re not having one?” Adam asked.

“I did, earlier; I’ve been up for a while.” She leaned back against the counter, watching them while they ate. “If you’re up to it, would you like to see your ship today? It’s out by my work building, not a very long walk.” Her brow furrowed slightly. “Maybe we should take the hover car, though.”

“We’re fine, sweetness,” Craig assured her. “Please stop worrying about us.” He moved closer to Leena.

As she gazed at Craig, Adam noted, with great anticipation of things to come, how her hardened nipples were now poking at the bodice of her dress.

“I’ll try,” she said somewhat breathlessly.

They left the house, following a trail that wound through the dense foliage and rock formations. Leena indicated which fruits and berries were edible, and which were not.

“Those are interesting,” Adam said, pointing up at the vibrantly colored plants that seemed to be actually growing from tops of some of the stones.

“Harissa is beautiful, but don’t touch it or you’ll be itching for days.”

“Good to know,” he said, loosely taking her hand as they continued their trek. Leena glanced at him and laced her fingers through his.

The path veered sharply, and they entered a much more expansive clearing than the one where her house was located. Adam figured it to be ten acres at minimum. There was a large building off a bit in the distance to the left. The much smaller structure ahead to the right sat in the middle of a fenced area and was definitely a barn. Three beasts, covered in flowing blue feathers yet similar in build and stature to horses, meandered around the enclosure.

Leena went to the waist-high fence and made a clicking noise. The animals trotted over to her. “These are my xanders, Cloey, Rah and Lucca.” Leena patted each of their heads as she said their names.
