Were She Belongs (10 page)

The warmth of his hand against her mound brought reality back.

He moaned inside her mouth, and she pressed her hand against his shoulder knowing she was helpless to fight him.

She pulled his shirt farther away from his neck, revealing more of the dark black tattoo. It was of an intricate design and must have been of importance for him to have placed it on such a tender region of his body. The veins beneath it bulged against his skin as he strained to maneuver his fingers into her while still trying not to crush her. She felt the fear within her and acknowledge that she should not challenge Saber. Instead she focused on his punishment, which was heavenly, and the desire he pulled from her.

As if sensing her fear, he released her lips and kissed her chin before looking deeply into her eyes. His glowed yellow and green.

They were mesmerizing.

“Do you feel it, Lex? Do you feel the bond growing between us?

This is real.”

She shook her head in denial, but no words escaped her lips.

He slowly pushed one finger inside her, and she felt the deep sensation as her vaginal walls clung to his digit. She had been deprived for so long.

Another set of hands pulled her sweats completely off of her, but as she tried to look down to see who it was, Saber pushed deeper. She screamed and grabbed his arm, feeling his strength and determination beneath her fingers.

“Relax and enjoy it. I won’t hurt you, love,” he whispered before kissing her breast.

In and out the motion continued as his mouth caressed her skin.

One finger turned into two as she moaned with pleasure and spread her legs wider for him.

She felt another set of hands grab hold of her ankle, spreading her wider to Saber’s touch. Then she felt lips kissing her from ankle to knee. She squirmed in delight.

“That’s my girl. You’re so tight, Lexi,” he stated, out of breath, scooting down lower to give attention to her left breast.

Again she damned her broken arm. She wanted to hold his head there or at least touch him. But Andre had a different plan. He slowly pulled her good hand from Saber’s shoulder and placed it above her and over the bedspread. He kissed her wrist, then sucked each fingertip in his warm, moist mouth before releasing them. She locked gazes with him as he kissed the inside of her wrist. All the kissing, the tender touches, simultaneously with Saber’s fingers thrusting into her folds, brought her closer and closer to climax.

His fingers did a number on her body, and that’s when she felt something deep in her core. It was pulling her toward the unknown, and being a virgin made her clueless. The anxiety began, and that’s when she felt the other hand tilting her head toward the side of the bed. Andre, with his eyes aglow, smiled at her softly before taking her lips in a deep and powerful kiss. Saber pinched her nipple, pulling as much as he could from her.

“She’s beautiful, isn’t she, brother?” Saber whispered before attempting to suck her entire breast into his mouth. It was impossible, but he still tried, and she loved the sensation.

Andre released her lips. “She’s a goddess,” he whispered, trailing kisses down her chest to her other breast.

“She is our goddess,” Paul stated from above Andre’s shoulder.

She felt her cheeks go flush, and as if sensing her reservations about being like this in front of them, Saber added a third finger and pumped harder and deeper into Lexi. Her eyes closed, her breathing grew rapid, and the sensations were too much for her. On the brink of exploding, she was almost there, just one more second, and that’s when Paul kissed her inner groin and licked the juices between her folds where Saber pumped rapidly. He nibbled somewhere ultra

sensitive, and she sprang forward. That tight, solid feeling deep in her core exploded as she screamed out Saber’s name. He muffled her cry with his mouth.

She could hear the three men inhaling deeply, then the sensation of multiple sets of hands massaging her muscles.

It was so fast, she had no idea what was coming. She watched in utter shock as Saber licked her cream from his digits as if it were the most natural and delectable thing he ever tasted.

“I have to taste more. She smells incredible.”

Looking down in a drowsy state, she saw Paul spread her thighs, then lean forward with his mouth.
Oh my God, he’s not going to go
down there with—

The feel of his tongue against her now sensitive clit had her trying to stop him.

“It’s okay. Let him taste you. We all want to taste you,” Saber whispered against her ear. There he was again, in charge and controlling her, and for crying out loud, her body was responding positively to him.

Paul licked and sucked, doing wicked things with his tongue while Andre and Saber feasted on her breasts.

That deep feeling was building inside of her, and Paul seemed to have the ability to bring it out in her as well. He used his finger, his tongue, and who knew what else.
Just keep it coming,
she thought as she lay there buffet-style for the triplets.

“You’re ours, Lexi. Let go and feel,” Andre whispered, then pulled her nipple before rolling it between his fingers. Paul sucked simultaneously, and that was it. She exploded once again, rolling her head back onto the pillow and lifting her hips toward Paul.

“Mmmm…she tastes fantastic.” He placed a soft kiss on top of her mound before closing her legs to stand up.

She kept her eyes closed. The reality was setting in.

They seemed to sense her limits as she felt them pull the covers over her legs and slowly roll her shirt back into place.

Andre leaned down and kissed her softly on the lips. “Thank you, Lexi,” he whispered before rising from the bed.

“I agree. She’s a strong-minded woman and has been on her own
for who knows how long. This is going to be a fight every step of the
way,”
Andre added.

“I love a good fight, and I think this one is worth fighting for,”

Saber replied, staring into Lexi’s eyes.

She felt both Paul and Andre leaving, and the loss of their presence brought on a feeling of sadness. She wanted to ask where they were going, but did she really want to lead them on and encourage them to continue this insane attraction?

She needed to talk to Sierra.

Saber pulled her close, rolled over her to the other side, then wrapped his arms around her.

“Rest, mate. I’ll stay with you.”

Mate? There was that word again. Why did the triplets keep calling her their mate?

Closing her eyes, she absorbed the feeling of having Saber hold her in bed. The way his strong arm lay over her waist and how naturally she fit into the small space under his arm and against his massive chest made her feel content and safe. She inhaled. He smelled similar to Andre but different. Then she wondered what was up with all the sniffing. She didn’t go around sniffing people to differentiate who was who.

There was no time to ponder over her behavior, nor what had just happened between them. Exhaustion overtook her as she drifted off into sleep.

“So how is it going?” Valco asked as he opened the front door to his home to let Andre and Paul inside. They had their own place five minutes up the road where they were caring for Lexi and others in their pack. Valco sniffed the air and came to his own conclusions.

“Ahhh, I sense some progress.”

Paul shook his head, and Andre headed inside and into the adjoining living room.

“Get you something to drink? You two look like you could use one.”

“I’ll get the drinks,” Andre replied as he walked closer to the wet bar.

“So what’s going on?” Paul asked as he took a seat on the sofa.

“Okay, so I guess since you two don’t feel like sharing, I’ll let you know what’s going on back in New York.”

That seemed to gain the full attention of his brothers.

“First, if Lexi is up to it, have her call Jacob. He’s very concerned about her.”

Both Paul and Andre looked angry.

“Why? He was her boss, and he knows she’s our mate,” Paul responded.

“He cares about her. A lot. So I suggest you let Lexi make the decision of whether or not she wants to contact him. On a secure line, obviously, since we don’t know the extent of what she is running from.”

“She’ll be safe here,” Andre remarked, taking a sip of scotch from the small crystal glass.

“If she sticks around,” Valco retorted, taking a sip from his own glass.

Andre and Paul looked taken back by his statement. Good. He wanted to put his brothers on guard. Finding your mate and trying to claim her was a normally smooth process if all involved were were, but not when the woman was a human.

“What the hell is that supposed to mean?” Paul asked sitting forward in his seat.

Valco got up and walked over to the bar to grab the manila folder.

He handed it over to Paul, and Andre walked over to look over his brother’s shoulder.

“That’s a file on your mate. She’s a definite flight risk, so I would be on guard.”

Valco knew what the file stated. It said a lot about Lexi and how hard life had been for her. She was a loner, self-sufficient, and had done an impeccable job hiding out and staying undetected. The information his sources were able to uncover still didn’t give them enough information on Lexi or why Stratton wanted her so badly.

“She’s had a tough time. Damn, Andre, are you reading this?”

“She’s scared and untrusting, Paul. We have to gain her trust before she’ll submit completely to the three of us.”

“Sierra said that Lexi lied about having a family. She feels terrible knowing that all those years Lexi spent the holidays working or alone.

You will need to be patient with her.”

Both men nodded, agreeing with Valco.

“She was homeless most of her life until college. I couldn’t even imagine that. How rough she must have had it and the danger she was in. Then it shows she paid cash for school to achieve her business management degree.” Paul read out loud.

“Saber saw the shithole apartment she lived in. We still have someone covering that place, right, Valco?” Andre asked, looking up from the file.

“Yes, I have two guys there. This package came this morning.

Ron and Emmitt found a lot of cash hidden in a compartment under the floorboard in the back closet, as well as under her bed. The only reason why they found it was because they sniffed it out. They complimented her ability to relay the floor. A human never would have found that money.”

“How much?” Andre inquired.

“She couldn’t have had that much. Not working security at Jacob’s for a little over a year,” Paul added.

“She had three hundred thousand.”

“What?” Both Paul and Andre asked in unison.

“That’s exactly what I said when Ron and Emmitt told me.”

“I wonder how much Jacob pays her? I mean, if he pays her six figures and she’s been there a year and a half and saved most of her pay…” Andre began to say.

“It still wouldn’t add up to three hundred thousand. Keep in mind that Jacob paid her cash. That’s why there’s no paper trail,” Valco replied, nodding toward the folder.

“Did you find any criminal records, arrests, or anything that shows she exists?”

“Criminal record?” Andre asked as he absorbed what Paul meant by that question.

“No. She’s clean, and all there is record of was her time spent at the shelter.”

“Our angel has secrets, Paul.” Andre stood up from the couch and downed the remainder of the scotch in his glass.

“We’ll break through that wall she has up. Today was a stepping stone.” Paul smirked as he rose from the couch and placed his empty glass on the coffee table in the center of the room.

“I’m sure you wolves all think you’re making progress, but don’t underestimate Lexi. She could serve you up on a platter if she wanted to.”

All three men turned toward the doorway where Sierra stood. Her long brown hair was gathered back in a large bun, and she crossed her arms in front of her chest, across her white button-down blouse. The short brown suede skirt she wore brushed against her cream-colored stockings and matching brown suede boots.

“Hey, Sierra. I didn’t even hear you approach,” Paul stated cautiously.

Valco chuckled as he pulled her into his embrace for a quick kiss.

“That’s one of my mate’s special talents.” He grinned.

“I bet it is. Sounds like she has snuck up on you a few times,”

Andre teased.

“Are you heading back to the house?” Sierra asked.

“Yes,” Paul replied.

“Good. I’m going with you. Valco, I’ll call you when Lexi and I are done visiting, okay?”

Paul and Andre cringed at one another. Valco laughed. Lexi’s scent lingered on his brothers, so they must have been making some progress with their mate. Sierra invading the progress might cause some unneeded tension.

“Honey, the guys just invited us over for dinner this evening. Why don’t you wait a few hours until then to meet with Lexi? My brothers and the men have some business to discuss, so it would be a great time for you to introduce Lexi to some of the other members of the pack,” Valco interjected.

“Yeah. Wait until five o’clock or so,” Paul added, then quickly kissed Sierra on the cheek before heading out the door.

She eyed them knowingly, but they didn’t stick around to argue.

Valco had just ensured some extra time for them to get to know Lexi better.

“What do you mean there’s no sign of her? After nearly two years of searching, we finally catch a break, and you jerks lose her? I want answers, and where’s Andy?” Stratton demanded as four betas stood in front of his desk looking scared and exhausted.
