  Kenzie had been aware for a while. Even though her heart had remained a slow steady beat, she’d felt hands tugging at her clothes. When she heard the reason for Jenson sending her away from the bathroom, she felt bad for reacting and trying to leave rather than confronting him.

  Her confidence in herself as a woman had grown with every minute she’d spent in her mates’ company, but every now and then uncertainties crept back in. She been downtrodden for years by her stepfather and it was difficult to forget such long-learned lessons.

  When Jenson wrapped her up in the heat of his body and rubbed his chin over the top of her head, her heartrate escalated as the need to be claimed by him came rushing to the fore. However, she wasn’t about to rush where angels feared to tread, even if she was no angel. At least in her eyes. She needed for him to tell her what he’d already explained to Jordan and Jay.

  “Open your eyes for me, sweetie,” Jenson demanded.

  Kenzie shivered as she forced her lids up. Jenson’s bass tones caused goose bumps to race over her cool flesh. He leaned over and kissed her on the forehead. “I’m sorry, mate. I didn’t mean to hurt you. Can you please forgive me? I was having a hard time controlling my inner beast and was scared I was going to hurt you.”

  Kenzie shifted on his lap and bit the inside of her cheek when she felt his erection against her hip. The deep yearning to turn and straddle his lap was a hungry compulsion almost too intense to ignore, but she was still cold and needed to warm up more. She reached for the hot water tap and turned it, sighing with relief when she felt the water heating further.

  “You hurt me, Jenson.” She blinked as tears stung her eyes again. “I thought you’d changed your mind and didn’t want me anymore.”

  Jenson grasped her waist, lifted, and turned her to face him before lowering her onto his thighs again. She gripped his shoulders for balance and to keep some distance between their bodies. Her breasts were aching, and her nipples were hard. If they so much as brushed against his skin, she was going to forget what they were talking about. They needed to sort things out before they made love.

  Jenson caressed his hands up her sides and she held her breath as she waited to see if he would touch, cup her breasts, but she exhaled with disappointment when he lifted his hands from her ribs and up to her face. He cupped her cheeks between his hands. “Never. I want you so bad, sweetie. I should have told you why I needed you to leave. I never should have said what I did. My claws were out, and I was scared that I’d dig them into your flesh if I so much as touched you. I couldn’t have lived with the guilt of damaging you. I’m sorry, Kenzie. It wasn’t my intention to hurt you or give you the impression I didn’t want you.”

  She sighed as she pressed her forehead to his. “I’ll forgive you on one condition.”

  “Anything,” he replied immediately.

  “Next time you want to be left alone, explain to me why first.”

  “I will. I promise, sweetie.” Jenson wrapped an arm around her waist and held her tight against him as he leaned forward and turned the water off. He leaned back and held her in his arms. Neither of them spoke, just savoring the heat and the skin to skin contact.

  Each time Kenzie inhaled she drew in Jenson’s delectable fragrance, and her body began to respond. Her pussy clenched with need, her clit filled with blood and started to throb, and her breasts swelled as her nipples hardened. Her breathing escalated, and she squirmed on his lap.

  His thighs tensed under her ass and his hard cock twitched against her lower belly. Kenzie raised her head from his shoulder and met his blazing hungry blue-eyed gaze.

  She leaned up as he bent down. He slammed his mouth over hers and she moaned as she opened to him.

  Kenzie’s insides turned to fire as molten liquid coursed through her veins. She needed, wanted, her mate to claim her, and she wasn’t leaving the bath until he had his teeth lodged in her shoulder.

  She moaned as their tongues tangled and twirled with carnal delight. They glided along each other’s before swirling and curling in an intimate chorography neither of them needed to think about.

  Jenson released her lips and began to lick and nibble his way over her jaw toward her neck. His tongue rasped over her skin, sending delicious need straight to her pussy and goose bumps shivering over her flesh. She whimpered when he sucked on the sensitive spot just under her ear, and she sobbed with pleasure as he nipped at her lobe. A cry of burning hunger escaped from between her parted lips when his breath blew into her ear, but when he shoved his tongue into the canal, fiery heat warmed her blood.

  Kenzie felt as if she was on fire, her insides were so hot they felt as if they were melting. Her pussy clenched with an empty ache, an ache that grew and grew until she was sure she couldn’t stand it a second longer. She needed him like she needed air to breathe. She didn’t know how, but the Cannon brothers were a part of her. She didn’t think she’d be able to survive without them. They were as necessary to her as the blood rushing through her veins.

  Jenson tracked his lips down her neck toward her chest. She arched her breasts up closer to his mouth, silently begging him to ease the deep-seated yearning causing her body to tremble.

  “Oh,” she moaned when he circled her throbbing nipple with the tip of his tongue, teasingly twirling that muscle around and around her areola, getting closer and closer to the aching tip.

  She stopped breathing altogether when he licked across the sensitive nub and cried out when he sucked it into his mouth. Wet, heat bathed the tip as he suckled firmly on her nipple and she threaded her fingers into his hair, hoping to keep him right where he was. Nonetheless, Jenson had other ideas and she groaned with frustrated disappointment when he released the nipple with a soft, wet pop.

  “Jenson?” She didn’t care that her voice came out sounding breathy and desperate. She was almost frantic with need to have his long, thick, hard cock buried so deep in her pussy, she didn’t know where either of them began or ended. The hungry ache in her womb and pussy was so strong, she couldn’t breathe.

  “What is it, sweetie?” Jenson asked just before he sucked her other nipple into his mouth.

  “Oh god,” she gasped and when her sex clenched spasmodically with famished need, she began to rock her hips into his.

  Jenson lifted his mouth from her breast and stared intently into her eyes. There was so much heat in his blue-eyed gaze, they were hazed over with passion. She wondered fleetingly if she looked like he did.

  “What do you want, mate?” Jenson asked.

  When he licked his lips, she couldn’t help but follow the unconsciously sexual motion of his tongue. A shiver of heat skated up her spine, causing her to tremble.

  “I need you, Jenson. Now! Please?”

  He caressed his hands down her sides and lifted her up higher onto her knees. “Take me inside of you, sweetie.”

  It was an order, but it didn’t anger her since she wanted him buried deep. She reached down between them and wrapped her hand around his shaft, pumping up and down a few times, loving the growling groans rumbling from his chest as she pleasured him. When he grasped her wrist with his large hand, she met his gaze again.

  “I’m too close to losing control, Kenzie. When I come it’s going to be deep inside that hot, wet, pretty cunt.”

  She moaned as she rubbed the head of his dick through her wet folds and placed him at her entrance. She groaned as she sank down over him, the tip of his cock spreading delicate tissues and lighting up sensitive nerve endings.

  “So fucking good,” Jenson growled, his hands gripping her hips firmly.

  “Yeah,” she agreed as she pushed down over him more. She gasped and groaned as the heated frictional slide of his thick cock in her pussy sent sparks of pleasure shooting deep into her womb. Her internal muscles clenched around him and when they loosened, he lifted her up and lowered her again. He took his time helping her move until his hard cock was lodged so deep in her pussy, she swore she could feel him in her
stomach.

  When she tried to lift up, he kept her still with his grip as he panted shallowly, his eyes squeezed tight. The muscles in his jaw were flexing as he ground his teeth, and she realized he was right on the edge of his control.

  Kenzie didn’t want him holding back with her. There was no way he’d ever hurt her. None of them would. Her mates had already proven how protective they were of her, of any weaker than they were, but she wasn’t feeble. She’d had to be strong to endure what she had. She wanted everything Jenson had to give her. She wanted him to release the leash on the wild animal and give her what they both needed.

  She leaned toward his neck, licking and nibbling up and down his skin. She nipped his earlobe and then lapped down toward the crook of his neck and shoulder. She opened her mouth swirled her tongue around his flesh and then she bit him.

  Jenson lost all reason.

  He roared as he moved, spinning them around until she was on her knees with her back to him and he was behind her. She didn’t even get to inhale before he drove his long, thick cock deep into her pussy.

  Kenzie gripped the rim of the tub as Jenson plowed in and out her pussy, hard, fast, and deep. The front of his thighs slapped against the back of hers. His pubis slammed into her ass and his large, heavy balls tapped against her clit each time he shoved in deeply.

  His arm was locked tightly around her waist, his hand splayed low on her belly and pubis. She tilted her hips hoping to get the finger near the top of her slit to delve into her folds, but he either didn’t get her silent urging, or he ignored it.

  Kenzie groaned when he maneuvered on his knees behind her, his front no longer blanketing her back. The hand he had grasping her lifted from her skin and reached for something near the end of the tub, but she was so lost in every heated stroke of his gliding cock, she couldn’t bring whatever he picked up into focus. She blinked a couple of times when a tube of something landed on the tile at the end of the spa bath and she gasped when she realized it was a tube of personal lubrication.

  Just as she was about to ask Jenson why he needed that since she was already dripping with juices, he pressed a cool moist finger onto her ass. She froze, the air in her lungs backing up as she forgot how to breathe.

  He rubbed his finger gently over her pucker and she exhaled in a noisy gust as nerve endings she hadn’t been aware of fired to life. His other hand came back around her side and this time he cupped her hot, aching pussy with his large palm and fingers. One of his fingers dipped into the top of her folds and targeted her clit with ease.

  “Oh,” she groaned. A shiver of heat lashed at the base of her back as he pressed the tip of his finger into her back entrance before racing up her spine. She couldn’t believe that she liked having her ass breached, nor the many pleasure nerve endings that were sending shards of bliss zapping back and forth from her ass and pussy.

  “You like that, sweetie?” Jenson bent over and whispered into her ear.

  She whimpered as the breeze of his warm, moist breath caressed the skin of her ear and neck. His finger pressed against her clit and then lightly swirled around the engorged, sensitive bud. A shudder ripped up her spine causing her whole body to quake with fiery hunger.

  Even though she couldn’t remember what the question had been she remembered her answer and nodded.

  “You’re going to love having one of our cocks fucking this sexy, little ass.” Jenson nipped her lobe and then licked the sting away as he continued to glide his cock in and out of her pussy. “Just imagine the three of us making love to you at the same time. A cock in your mouth, one in this hot, tight, wet cunt.” He shoved deep as if to punctuate his words. “You’re going to be so filled with cock. We’re going to give you so much pleasure, you’ll never want us to leave this sexy body.”

  His words created the picture in her mind and she shook her head. Not because she didn’t want what he was saying, but because she did. It was all too much. She could imagine the ecstasy. Her ass tingled as he pumped his finger in and out of her star, going deeper and deeper every time he penetrated her.

  Kenzie was hovering right on the brink of climax. Her breath sawed in and out of her lungs. Her insides felt as if they’d melted long ago and were dripping from her pussy. Friction heated her ass and the ache inside was so strong, she felt as if she was about to die.

  Jenson pumped his hips faster, his flesh slapping against her own, water sloshing in the tub. The pressure inside had grown to astronomical proportions, and she gripped the edge of the bath so hard her knuckles ached.

  And then he pinched her clit between his finger and thumb.

  “Jenson!” Kenzie screamed as she toppled over the edge. Her whole body quivered and quaked as rapturous nirvana washed over, and through her. Her internal muscles clenched down hard around his pistoning dick before releasing and clamping down again. Stars exploded in front of her eyes in a colorful display and cream gushed from her pussy.

  A low rumbling growl started deep in Jenson’s chest as he stroked his cock in and out of her pussy. He drove into her once, twice more and on the third thrust he roared and held deep inside of her, his hips grinding into her ass, the finger in her back entrance still.

  Kenzie groaned as she felt the first hot spurt of his cum deep in her pussy, warming and bathing her insides with his jism. Just as the intensity of her orgasm began to wane, Jenson licked over her shoulder, right next to where Jay had marked her, and bit down hard.

  She opened her mouth on a silent scream as she flew straight back up into the heavens. Her body shook and shivered, her pussy convulsing around his pulsing dick as he filled her with his cum. There was a light click as the weak mating connection snapped into place and just as she managed to inhale, a sheet of white light flashed in front of her eyes.

  Kenzie wasn’t sure if she passed out or was too exhausted to notice anything, but when she managed to open her eyes, she was no longer kneeling or clinging to the side of the bath.

  Jenson was sitting with her in his lap, still intimately connected to her. She sighed with contented satiation and rested the back of her head against his muscular chest. A shiver wracked her body when he cupped a breast and flicked the sensitive nipple with his thumb.

  “Are you okay, mate?”

  Kenzie nodded, her lips curving into a smile. Jenson had practically purred his question to her. In fact, she could feel his chest vibrating against her back. Elation and love filled her heart. She was the reason he was making that rumbling sound. He was happy and sated.

  She just hoped that she could keep all her mates happy for the rest of their lives.

  When the hair at her nape stood on end with apprehension, she pushed her wariness away and savored being in Jenson’s arms.

  Right at this moment, nothing mattered but him.

  Chapter Twelve

  Jay was actually excited about going back to work. He’d liked cooking for as long as he could remember, but since it had just been him and his brothers, life had been boring, and work had become a chore. His passion for food had diminished with each lonely day, month, and year that had gone by. Now that he and his brothers had their mate with them, he was looking forward to having her work alongside him. He had no idea how good a cook she was since they hadn’t let her do any of the work while she’d been recovering, but there was no time like the present to find out.

  He glanced in the rearview mirror at Kenzie. She was staring out the side window looking lost in thought, but he could see that she was smiling. He hoped she was remembering their love making of the previous evening. He was eager to make love with her tonight to strengthen and seal the mating bond between them, but if she was too tired after working all day, he wasn’t about to force her.

  She was his world. She brought him so much happiness, so much joy, and years to look forward to rather than dread. There was a lightness in his heart that had been missing after his first encounter with the enemy while serving in the Marines.

  He slowed the truck and parked acros
s the road from the pub, right in front of Broden’s clinic. Jordan got out of the front passenger seat, opened Kenzie’s door, and helped her out of the truck. Jay hopped out and shoved Jenson out of his way, trying to catch up with Jordan and Kenzie. He needed to feel her small hand in his, needed to contact of her skin against his. Just needed her. He laced her fingers with hers as soon as he came alongside her and gazed down at the top of her head. She looked up and smiled at him before turning back to watch where she was going.

  As soon as they entered the hotel and Kenzie spotted Emmy, she tugged her hand out of his and rushed over to the other woman. “Hi, Emmy.”

  “Kenzie.” Emmy smiled as she shoved at Declan. The big polar bear shifter gave a dramatic sigh and slid from the booth seat. Emmy scooted to the edge, stood, and then hugged Kenzie. When Jay heard Emmy sniff he realized the other woman’s sense of smell had grown stronger and she could probably smell him and his brothers on their mate. Her next words confirmed his supposition. “You’re mated.” Emmy bounced on the spot. “Congratulations.”

  “Thanks,” Kenzie replied with heat in her cheeks.

  “Do you want some coffee?” Emmy asked after sitting next to Declan, who’d sat down again as soon as his mate had stood.

  Kenzie glanced at the full coffee pot sitting in the middle of the table and bit her lip indecisively before meeting Jay’s gaze and then looking at Emmy again. “We have work to do.”

  “You’re going to be working in the kitchen with your mates? That is so awesome. I’m going to love having another woman around this place.” Emmy glanced at her mates then at Jay and his brothers. “We need more estrogen to balance out all the testosterone floating around here.”

  “Watch it, mate,” Declan snarked.

  When Kenzie glanced shyly at Declan and Brooks, Jay realized she hadn’t been introduced to the two men. She’d only met Jett as far as he could recall, and if she’d met the other men it wouldn’t hurt to remind her of their names. “Kenzie, these big bozos are Declan Swish, Brooks McKay, and you’ve already met Jett Burns.” He pointed at each man as he said his name.
