Chapter 3

Author: Cindy Spencer Pape

I took a swallow of the new drink then listed a couple of the journals. Even as shy as I was, I was still proud of the career I'd built for myself. I'd started out as a typist for a group of doctors then gradually began doing their literature searches for them as well, finally ending up in editing. I'd even trained my own replacement - namely myself, under my new identity. I didn't think he'd read them. He didn't look like the kind of guy who spent his time reading research articles.

"Ah yes. I pick some of those up once in a while. I remember the article last month about Alzheimer's disease. Be interesting to see if that new treatment works out." He gave me a wicked grin that made my insides melt.

I'm sure I blushed, and with his vision, he could probably tell even in the dimly lit bar. Great. He was that hot...and an intellectual. Why the heck was he wasting his time talking to me?

"There was also a review of the new electronic readers in the technology journal," he continued. "You think those are going to continue to grow in popularity?"

"Of course," I replied. "They're convenient, you can store a whole library on one tiny memory card and the technology continues to improve. Other than reading in the bathtub, there isn't really a downside."

"I keep thinking of getting one but haven't talked myself into it yet," he admitted. "Do you have one?"

"Sure," I replied eagerly. "Right here." I pulled my e-reader out of my purse and turned it on.

"I see." His laugh was warm and sexy and came all the way from his gut. "The shy little vamp has unexpected depths."

My eyes went wide as I looked up at him in astonishment. Then I looked down at the screen and wanted to die. I'd left it at the cover of one of my favorite erotic romances. The very explicit cover. Dear lord!

"What?" He shrugged, a wide grin still splitting his face. "I have three sisters. I'm very familiar with a wide variety of fiction."

He spent a few minutes playing with the device then carefully turned it off and set it aside.

"Thanks." He reached across the table and took my hands, surrounding them with the warmth and strength of his own. Moisture built between my thighs just from that subtle touch, and my nipples swelled, rasping against the fabric of my plain cotton bra.

"You ever get the urge to try out any of the scenarios you read about?" It was the lamest line in the world, but not the way he said it with those dark brown eyes smoldering.

A shiver ran down my spine. I swallowed hard, trying not to notice the way his thumbs were stroking the tender skin of my inner wrists. "Ummm...not usually." The words came out as a husky whisper. Truth was, I'd never really thought about it, not seriously. Until now.

"What would it take I wonder..." he murmured. He lifted one of my hands to his mouth and ran the knuckle along his lower lip. "How wild would the sex have to be in order to shock a fan of erotic romance? That sounds like a hell of a challenge."

I shook my head and pulled my hand away - or tried to. The man had a grip like a bear trap. "Please," I said, trying to pretend I didn't want him desperately. "I may be a little down, but I don't need a mercy fuck. I'm just going to go find my friends, let them know I'm leaving." I scooted my butt sideways, trying to escape.

This time fire flashed in that dark gaze and I went still, like a terrified rabbit. It suddenly occurred to me this was a very large werewolf I had just pissed off. Without letting go of my hand, Jackson stood, coming around to my side of the booth so his body was blocking me in. The position put me at eye level with his waist.

"Look down." His voice was so low it was more vibration than sound.

Obediently I dropped my eyes. "Goodness!" The jeans, which had been snug before, were now practically bursting over a massive erection.

"Want to reconsider the phrase 'mercy fuck'? I've wanted you since the moment I saw you on the dance floor. Why do you think I followed you outside? If you aren't interested, then you're welcome to go. But you sure as hell smell like you're turned-on."

"I - oh - we..." I had no idea what to say. But I couldn't take my eyes off that enormous bulge, and my whole body clenched in response. I could feel more wetness coating my lower lips, which were swollen and tender against my soaked panties.

"There's an apartment upstairs." He used our joined hands to tip my chin up so he was looking me in the eye. "Nobody's using it right now. Or we can go back to my place, which is just about a mile away. Either one is fine with me."

Alarm bells went off but I ignored them. I was a hundred-year-old vampire. Even though he was a werewolf, I was still superhumanly strong and fast. I could take care of myself. Besides, I trusted him, though I had no idea why.

"I need to tell my friends where I'm going."

"Of course." He pulled me to my feet, led me over to the bar. He reached behind it and pulled out a pen and a napkin. "Which address?"

The band crashed into a loud power chord and I winced. "Your place."

While he wrote on the napkin he rubbed his erection against the side of my hip. "Oh honey, this is going to be one hell of a night."

    I don't remember much of the drive in Jack's big black truck. His house was tucked into a wooded, exclusive area, and I recall thinking that the bar must make more money than I'd suspected. I remembered Jess' and Dani's shocked but delighted faces when I handed them the napkin with Jack's name, address and phone number. Jack. Somewhere along the way he told me that's what he preferred to be called. It suited him - strong and simple, without a trace of pretension.He pulled up before what was essentially a log cabin, blending into the woods around it. Except that it was the biggest log cabin I'd ever seen. Even in the dark I could tell that the three-story house sprawled over the tree-covered hillside. The garage door opened at the push of a button and Jack pulled the truck inside.Before I could even get the door open Jack leapt out of the cab of the oversized pickup and opened it for me. He lifted me down, making sure the front of my body skimmed along his as he slowly lowered my fe

    I watched Jack roll the condom over his penis then step back to me and put his hands on my shoulders. He pushed me back until I was more or less lying on the couch with my legs bent and my feet on the floor. Kneeling between my legs, he hooked his elbows under my knees and spread me wide, exposing my dripping and swollen pussy to his gaze."Gorgeous." With that, he lowered his face and dragged his tongue along my slit with a loud slurp."Jack." My high-pitched shriek filled the room as he licked a circle around my distended clit. His tongue was strong and slightly rough. The friction was perfect, and I could already feel the climax coiling in my womb. My hips began to jerk in time to his movements."So sweet," he whispered, blowing against my sensitive tissues as he did so. "So responsive." He shifted my knees to his shoulders, freeing up his hands. One clamped onto the curve of my ass while he used the other to massage the wet cleft of my sex. He continued to torment my clit with his

    When I came back to earth the second time, Jack was kissing my shoulder, soothing the small bite mark with his tongue. His cock was still filling me, almost to the point of pain. I wiggled and he eased us both backward until he was sitting on his heels with me resting atop his thighs. He wrapped his arms around me, holding me close, and he kissed the top of my head."You're still hard," I managed to whisper. I leaned my head back against his chest, not really in any hurry to move."I will be for several minutes," he said quietly. "It's a wolf characteristic, one that happens sometimes. The head of my cock swells at the moment of orgasm. It keeps me lodged inside for a while. If I tried to pull out now, you'd tear, and even though you'd heal the wound, I'd rather not cause you pain." He dropped a few more kisses on my hair and my ear. "Besides, this is nice. Why would I want to go anywhere yet?"It was nice sitting there wrapped in his warmth and his strength, even if the position wa

    Happy birthday, sweet thing." He punctuated that with a little nip on my upper ear, making me laugh. "Though I think I'm the one who got the present.""Oh, I'm not complaining," I replied with a breathless little laugh. "I...um...thank you.""Anytime, gorgeous.""And for rescuing me from the bear."His whole body froze and something rumbled deep in his chest. "You don't want to know how close I came to killing that drunken idiot. Seeing him with his hands on you - I damn near snapped.""And you hadn't even met me yet." Jack was a lot more chivalrous than he let on if he got this protective of every new customer."The minute I saw you I knew you were something special. I was locked on you like a laser beam as soon as I laid eyes on you, and damn near everyone in the bar probably saw it. My two friends who came out after me? They weren't there to help me take care of Marshall. They were there to keep me from taking him apart.""But aren't bears usually stronger than wolves? Couldn't you

    I smiled up at Jack. Even if I wasn't entirely sure I believed that I was beautiful, I wasn't stupid enough to mess this up. "Upstairs is good." Good? Who was I kidding? This was already the best birthday ever, and the night was only just beginning."Right answer," he said with a grin. Before I could react, he scooped me up in his arms and strode toward the big curving staircase.After a fairly embarrassing squeal, I wrapped my arms around his neck and enjoyed the ride. He was a werewolf, after all, and plenty strong enough to handle my weight as he'd proved on the way into the house. My so-called master probably could have too, come to think of it, but he'd been too busy bitching at me for being overweight. He'd always found fault with each member of his harem. For years I'd wondered why he kept us, even fucked us, if he despised us so much. It was only recently I'd finally figured out that it was all just one big power trip for him - classic abuser mentality.I took a brief moment

    Jack let go of me and I felt the loss of his touch immediately. Damn, the man was addictive. He bent over to reach into the nightstand on the far side of the bed and withdrew four long black cords and a pile of condoms. He dumped the condoms on the nightstand then turned and handed me the cords.The smooth cords, each about a yard in length, slid easily along my fingers, soft but strong. "Silk?""Yep. And they're spelled. Once the command word is triggered, they won't break or come untied until you say the release word."My pussy clenched and creamed. How perfect was this? I was so excited by the prospect that my whole body quivered.Jack licked his lips and smiled at me. "So is that a yes?" He reached out and gently flicked one pebbled nipple.I nodded. "Yes.""Okay then. Scoot over to the center of the bed. And starting now, whatever I say you have to do unless it makes you truly uncomfortable. Submitting is part of your fantasy, isn't it?"I bobbed my head again."Say it," h

    The touch that came was so soft and light that I gasped in surprise at the faint flicker of sensation on my pebbled nipple. At first I thought it was just his breath, but it wasn't warm - not cold either. Finally it dawned on me that he was tickling me with a feather."You like that, don't you?" he asked as he switched to my other breast."Mmm-hmmm."He stopped tickling and tapped me on the sternum with one finger. "Is that how you're supposed to answer?" His words were stern but there was still a teasing softness in his tone that kept me from feeling chastised. This was my fantasy - he was just playing into it.Obediently I answered, "Yes, Jack.""Good girl." He trailed the feather down between my breasts to dust my bellybutton, making me giggle.I could feel him beside me, his weight denting the bed at my hip. I sensed him doing something with his other hand then there was a soft humming sound, and the feather grazing the creases of my hip was replaced with something else - a s

    I think that was the moment I realized I was in love with him. Oh, not the forever kind - I was a long way from that. But he was so kind, so giving, I couldn't help losing a little piece of my heart right then and there. The big, tough biker werewolf was such a sweetheart in bed that tears stung my eyelids behind the blindfold. Even if I never saw Jackson again after this night, he'd have left a mark on my heart for all eternity.He didn't linger on my breasts, which was a disappointment. He moved on to my shoulders and arms, even though he couldn't do much of a muscle rub with me lying on my back. It was nice, this soft, slow seduction as a change from the intensity and urgency of the passion so far. I swear my bones melted as he rubbed my fingers and hands, easing aches I hadn't known I had. When he finished with those, he dropped a kiss into my palm and climbed over my body to reach my other hand, giving it the same loving treatment. Finally he cupped my head in his hands - without

    A month later, Coop was feeling the strain of exhaustion. Every weekend, he spent in the grove, camping by day, far enough away from Kyla that no metal or plastic from his tent would contaminate the grove. As soon as the sun went down, he met up with Kyla, and they would go off to the sacred glade and make love. They'd done things he'd always dreamed of but never believed were possible - his little nymph was utterly uninhibited. Oral, anal, tied up with silken cords - there seemed to be nothing she didn't enjoy. They also spent a surprising amount of time just talking. Coop told her everything about his life, and even though she'd never seen a city, never visited a university, she was bright enough to understand when he complained about campus politics, uninspired students or the silly antics of his cousins, nephews and nieces. She even introduced him to other dryads from the grove, and he spent time talking to them as well. He enjoyed every moment he spent with Kyla, but the schedule

    Cooper's broad, strong hand smoothed down the slight roundness of her belly to the juncture of her thighs. She opened her legs, eagerly anticipating his touch, and he didn't disappoint. His fingers cupped her mound while his mouth continued to lave and suck her nipple into a rigid peak."You are so hot, so wet." He breathed the words in husky approval as he leaned farther over her to switch his attentions to the other breast. His fingers combed through the curls that covered her sex then slipped between her lips, sliding along her cleft. He caught the nub of her clit between two fingers and squeezed with exquisite gentleness, setting off a ripple of contractions in Kyla's womb. She cried out at the beauty of the sensation - not quite orgasm, but a moment of perfect tenderness. He hummed his approval and switched his mouth back to her other breast while his hand shifted slightly too. Now his thumb rubbed along her swollen clit while two thick fingers began to press into her pussy."Ye

    A volcano could have erupted beneath his feet and Coop wouldn't have been able to do anything but sit down by her side. "You said you wanted to talk." He reached out and coiled a strand of silky auburn hair around his fingers. "Is that all you had in mind?" He sure hoped it wasn't. His cock was as hard as - well - as a tree trunk."No. It has been many years - many decades since I have been with a male. I would lie with you, if you'll have me." She looked down at her lap and even in the moonlight he could see the hint of a blush tint her ivory cheek."I would be honored," he said, tucking the strand of hair behind her ear and tipping her head up to his. "But I don't have any protection with me, and I have no idea if our species can - cross-pollinate."She laughed at that, as he'd hoped she would, the teasing breaking the awkwardness between them. "Dryads are only fertile in the spring, at the same time as our trees. You need have no worries about such a thing. Although - if I were l

    Kyla held her breath as she waited for the werewolf's response. It had been a long time since she'd stepped out of her tree for anything except the occasional grove ritual. She really couldn't even remember the last time she'd been with a male of any species.Cooper stretched, and then before her eyes could take in the transformation, he stood there in his human form - his gloriously masculine human form. She blinked, but when she opened her eyes again, he was still gorgeous. His hair was dark, almost black, and just covered his ears and grazed his nape in back, showing a hint of a wave. His deep brown eyes were set in a strong, rough-hewn face with high cheekbones and dark stubble around his chin. Broad shoulders narrowed into a sculpted chest, lightly covered with a soft mat of hair and tapering down to an abdomen ridged with muscle. Her eyes dropped a little lower and she felt her cheeks flush. Oh my! He was a fine specimen indeed.Damn, he's a hot one. Nice piece of timber he's s

    You didn't have to be so mean, Kyla groused to Xera after the werewolf had left. It was nice to have someone who could hear us stop and chat with us for a change.Honey, you need to get out of your tree more often. Xera's soft-needled branches shook though there was very little wind - almost as if the tree were laughing. There's usually a satyr or two around on Samhain, and that's only a moon or so away. 'Cause, sister, you need to get out and get laid.You are such a nymph, Xera. If she'd been able to from inside her tree, Kyla would have stuck her tongue out. Stop thinking with your crotch. Sex isn't the answer for everything.You'd be surprised, youngling. Besides, we are nymphs. That's what a dryad is. Did you catch the stupidity virus from that fleabag or something?Oh, shut your knothole. With that, Kyla withdrew even deeper into her tree where she couldn't see or hear. The sun was almost up. It was time for all good dryads to go to sleep.By Monday, Cooper had pretty much c

    Part 4: Sporting WoodCoop trotted along in wolf form through the wooded grove. To a human, this area deep in the heart of the Olympic Peninsula's temperate rain forest would seem impenetrably dark, but to his senses it was awash in the silvery light of the full moon. He'd never ventured this far into the forest before, but he knew he'd be back. There was something elementally soothing about this grove - as if it had never been touched by the hand of man. All the tension of his day slipped away, even more so than it always did when he was able to shift and run through the moonlight. Here in the forest, he wasn't Professor Marceski, constantly worried about maintaining his grant funding or getting that next paper published, and he wasn't even Cooper, the werewolf. He just was.He paused beside a particularly stunning red alder tree and lifted his leg."Don't even think about it, Fido."That gave Cooper pause. He stood there, leg cocked, and studied the tree.

    "If you want, they'll probably rush through their business and be back in a few hours," Dermot said. It was his turn to lean down and kiss me good evening. "I suspect they just decided we needed some time alone."A lump formed in my throat. He was giving me the choice - to spend time with just him or to go back to being pampered by all four. It didn't take any thought for me to shake my head. "I don't mind a quiet night with just the two of us, not if you don't."His smile was slow and heated. "I can't think of anything I'd like more."I was already wet when he kissed me and rolled me onto my back. My legs automatically widened to cradle his erection against my core. He rubbed his tip against my labia, slipping between the slick tissue while his tongue plundered my mouth. Already mindless with need, I lifted my hips to take him inside. He was as impatient as I was. With no further preliminaries, he thrust deep and began to move. His hands slid between us to find my breasts, but his

    One of the others added another pillow beneath my head so I didn't have to strain my neck to reach Dermott's cock. I cradled his taut ball sac with one hand while I stroked up and down his length with my other and eagerly licked circles and around his plump crest."That's it, love. Suck me, Jess." Dermott fisted his hands in my hair and pushed himself between my open lips. I sucked hard, taking him deep to the back of my throat. My hand on his shaft kept up a steady rhythm as he thrust, fucking my mouth. I alternated suction with twirling my tongue around his tiny, weeping slit, loving every drop of his flavor.Christos hadn't let up on his attentions to my pussy. He suckled my clit while sliding two thick fingers into my cleft, curling them up to find my sweet spot. Elek nibbled on my left nipple and Theron lavished kisses on my belly and teased my navel with his tongue. Once again it was complete sensory overload, and I had to force myself to focus on Dermott. I was determined not

    After a luscious midnight lunch of gumbo and conch fritters and topped by homemade Key lime pie, I leaned back in my chair on the patio and gazed up at the stars. Once again the Leonides brothers had vanished after cleaning up the dishes, leaving Dermott and me to our own devices."I can't keep eating like this," I said with a laugh. "I won't be able to fit into any of my clothes when I get home.""I think we can make sure you get enough exercise to counteract the calories." Dermott stood and held out his hand to help me to my feet. "Any thoughts on what else you'd like to do tonight? Another swim? Sailing around the island? A movie perhaps?"How long had it been since I'd taken time to watch a movie? Maybe six months ago with Dani and Ari, back when they'd both been single? Yes. And it had been Ari's turn to pick, so it had been some sort of gushy romance. "What kind of movies do you have?""Full-scale screening room with satellite.
