Reed coughed. "You used Pack magic, Hannah."
She gave a small smile. "I know."
“Thank God, you have that power,” Josh whispered. “I know your usual healing is amazing, but I don’t think it would have been enough this time. I don’t know what we would have done. I know Reed heals fast, but without you, it might not have been enough.”
Her heart lurched. “I’m Pack. I’m yours. I’m Reed’s too.” Hannah whispered.
Josh’s black eyes didn’t blink. He shook his head. “No, I can’t be. Didn’t you see what I just did? I walked through
fire
and I don’t have a mark on me. There’s something wrong with me. Don’t you get that? I need to go. I don’t know what is happening, but I can’t stay here. I can’t put you two or the rest of the Pack in danger.”
Reed shook his head and coughed again. “No, you need to stay here. You can’t go. We’ll figure it out. We’ve already been researching, we won’t give up. I won’t let you hurt anyone.” The men stared at each other, and Hannah knew Reed wouldn’t let Josh leave no matter what.
Finally, Josh nodded. “I need your word, Reed. Kill me if you have to, but don’t let me hurt anyone.”
Hannah gasped and her heart ached. No.
Reed’s eyes filled. “I promise.”
Josh was too much a man to let himself become a danger. But she’d be dammed if she allowed Reed to put him down. No, she’d find a way to save him. Josh was her mate after all.
Hannah shook her head. “All I could think about when the fire came at us was that I should have made love to you both and mated you fully. I’m ready.”
Reed inhaled. “Really?”
Josh gave a hollow laugh. “That’s all I could think about too. Well, other than the ability to walk around in fire and not get burned, but we can talk about that later.”
Hannah laughed. “All I can think about is the two of you. I love you, Josh.”
His eyes widened, and he smiled. Really smiled. “I love you too, Hannah.”
Reed coughed and sat up, healed. “I love you, Josh. I know you aren’t ready to hear it yet, but I don’t want to go further in this war and in our lives without saying it.”
Josh traced Reed’s brow. “I love you, too.”
Hannah laughed. “Apparently all it took was a fire and a few new abilities for us to come clean about our feelings, huh?”
Josh laughed. “So how exactly does the full mating thing work?”
Reed smiled. “It’s fate. You and I will make love to Hannah and not use condoms. Our seed will make the mating happen. As for you and me, it’s the same way, but we don’t have to do it all at once. I guess it’s a little different for a trinity bond than others, since there are three of us. But as long as I do the
mounting
,” they all laughed, “then we will be mated. Make sense?”
“Wait,” Josh interjected. “Why is it only you? Why does it have to be your
seed
?”
“Because I’m the werewolf and the one whose species needs the mating this way. We can always have you
mount
me just in case we want to make sure the mating sticks.” Reed smiled.
Josh laughed. “In other words, we need to have sex in as many ways and as many times as possible.”
Reed joined in his laughter. “Not a bad deal.” Reed sobered. “There is also the marking. That will bind my wolf to you, not just my human half. But I want to do that later, once we know what going on with you. I don’t want it to hurt you.”
Josh nodded. “I understand.”
“Okay,” Hannah cut in. “Let’s get to it then.”
Both men looked at her.
“What? Come on, Reed’s already naked. Strip, Josh.”
“Here?” Josh asked.
“Now?” Reed asked.
“Yes, here. Now. We need to reaffirm our existence and love. Plus, we are outdoors; I can feel the earth calling to me. Make love to me. Make me yours.”
Chapter 19
Hannah watched as both men shifted to rest on their knees. Reed, freshly healed and looking almost pain-free, kneeled, naked, watching her. His sandy blond hair, slightly crispy on the ends, stood in a disarrayed halo around his beautiful artistic face. Josh knelt by him, strong and not quite as beautiful, but equally as handsome.
Josh took a deep breath and lifted the shirt above his head. Hannah caught her breath as she watched his biceps and abs flex with the movement. She swallowed and tried not to gasp.
Damn, they were both specimens of male perfection. Washboard abs, long, lean muscles. She ached to trace her fingers along every inch of them. They had that pretty little line at their hips that made such lickable trails to their, ahem, groins.
Hannah bit her lip and looked down. Reed, already naked, was hard and ready, his balls low and filled. His cock was long, longer than Josh’s, and wide. Josh shucked his shoes and pants. The military man was commando. Hannah grew achy and wet. She quickly rid herself of her clothes as she stared at Josh's cock, long, and wide, wider than Reed's. Together they would fill her and hit every right spot. They were just different enough that she’d known who was in her in the throes of passion and she loved them both.
Hannah got on her hands and knees and crawled to Josh. She knew she looked like a desperate woman, but she didn't care. These two were hers. And after they made love, they'd be hers forever. She batted her eyes at Josh then wrapped her lips around the head of his penis. His sweet, woodsy taste seeped on her tongue just like when she tasted Reed's sandalwood flavor. She swallowed, forcing his cock farther down her throat. Josh tugged at her hair.
"God, I love your mouth," he grunted.
Reed went behind her and danced his fingers down her spine. She shivered in need. He traced his fingers over her sex and through her folds, until he slid one finger in to the knuckle.
"You're wet," Reed rasped.
She let go of Josh's cock with a pop. "Always. Just for you two." She licked up Josh's balls then took him in her mouth again.
Reed pinched her clit, and she jumped.
Oh. My. Goddess.
He scraped her clit with his fingernail, and her pussy fluttered.
Stop teasing
.
But she couldn't say it because Josh was fucking her mouth. Hard. And she loved it.
Who knew she could be such a naughty girl? Maybe Reed and Josh just brought it out of her.
Josh played with her nipples while Reed entered another finger, then another, until she was filled with four of them as he worked her channel. She was about to come, just riding that crescent where she begged for stars, but both men backed off.
She lifted her head from Josh, her lips swollen. "Don't stop, please."
Reed chuckled and teased her folds with the tip of his cock, and she wiggled back, begging. "Oh, I like to hear you say please. But I don't want you to come until I'm in you. I want to feel your pussy clench around me, milking me."
She shuddered, almost coming at his words alone.
"Dammit, Reed, fuck her,” Josh grunted. “Shove that fat cock into her, because I'm about to go just listening to you."
"Yes, what he said." Hannah agreed. Goddess, she wanted them both. Loved them both.
Reed slowly entered her, inch by agonizing inch.
Oh. My.
"That's it, baby, take me." Reed groaned. "Do you know how good you feel around me, bare? I never want to be in you again with a condom. I want to feel you. I want to fill you. Fill you with my seed and watch it take root. I want to you grow round and ripe with our child. With Josh's child. A child belonging to the three of us."
With each promise he reamed her. Goddess, she wanted everything he said and more. She wanted them. And she had them.
"I can't wait to feel what you feel, Reed," Josh breathed as he plucked her nipples and fucked her mouth.
Reed pounded into her, Josh too, until she found the crest of that wave again and fell. Stars shattered behind her eyelids, and her body rocked with emotions, feelings, connections. Everything. She could feel Reed's soul intertwine with hers. She could feel his every desire, want, hope. All centered around her and Josh. As she felt his warm seed pulsate in her womb, she bonded. She was Reed’s, as he was hers. Forever.
"Oh my God," Reed whispered. "I didn't know. They said…but I didn't know."
Oh, she knew.
She lay on the ground, in Reed's arms, and felt his being.
"Josh, I want you." She needed him. Needed this feeling. She didn't want to lose him. She needed this last part of the puzzle to be whole. Josh.
"I want to come in you,” Josh said. “I want you to look at me like you're looking at Reed. I see it. The link. Like a physical entity that I can feel, taste. I want it with both of you. Please don't deny me." Lines of strained tension covered his face, and she reached out to him.
"Please."
Reed rolled over, leaving Hannah on the grassy floor. Through the canopy, sunlight peaked through the trees, and a burned amber scent drifted along the air. Josh lay between her legs and positioned himself. He twined his fingers with hers, looked directly into her eyes, then slowly, oh so slowly, entered her, filled her.
"Mine," Josh murmured.
"Yours," Hannah agreed.
"Ours," Reed added.
"Ours," Josh and Hannah whispered.
"Josh, please. Harder." She ached. She angled her pelvis, inviting him deeper. Josh was always the harder of the two, more demanding. She loved it, craved it.
"As you wish." Josh smiled a truly feral smile then slammed into her, pushing against her womb.
He did it again and again, crashing into her. Loving her.
****
With Hannah wrapped around him, Josh knew he was in heaven. Nothing could change it, not any amount of demons, torrents of fire, or whatever the fuck he was turning into.
Reed knelt behind them and reached over Josh to skim his hand between Hannah and him.
"Reed, touch her." Josh groaned.
"Oh, I will, then I'll touch you," Reed promised.
Oh shit.
He knew Reed would be topping first. That was the way it would be done. He trusted Reed and knew he could do it. He wanted to feel that long cock in his ass. It didn't scare him anymore. The connection between Reed and Hannah didn’t scare him anymore either. He wanted that too, with both of them. And he wanted to feel Reed around his cock in the future.
Fuck. He almost came on the spot just thinking about it. But he had to maintain control. He didn't want to come in Hannah until Reed did what he wanted to do. He had only a few good shots in him since he was human. He envied the hell out his Energizer Bunny of a mate. Reed could stay hard for hours, days even. Josh might have a quick turn around, but Reed was fucking amazing.
Speaking of fucking…
Hannah reached up and cupped his face.
