Sugar Creek 1: Tessa's Chosen (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting) Page 5

  She’d even called her estranged father to help her get her mother the help she needed. Her father had surprised her by turning up and her parents had ended up having the mother of all fights. When her dad had tried to leave her mother had run after him. Her mom had jumped into the car just as her father had started to drive away. Tessa had stood on the side walk watching until the taillights had disappeared and hoped her dad would be able to talk some sense into her mom, but she would never find out if he had succeeded. That was the last time she’d ever seen her parents.

  A police officer had knocked on the door hours later and told her, her dad had lost control of the car and plowed into a tree, killing them both instantly. At first Tessa had tortured herself with guilt blaming herself for her parents deaths, but once she’d begun to come out of her grief she realized that it hadn’t been her fault. She’d been trying to help not maim. She could just imagine her mother going ballistic in her drunken stupor, raging at the man she’d once been married to. Maybe her mom had hit her dad and that had been enough of a distraction and he’d lost control. No wishing or thinking would change what had happened so she pushed those thoughts to the back of her mind.

  Tessa sighed as she came back to the present.

  Injuries healed but she didn’t think a broken heart ever would. And not one of them had said anything about caring for her on an emotional level. Sure, they’d told her they wanted to protect her, but that didn’t mean they were falling for her.

  She knew nothing about them and couldn’t let them touch her without knowing more. Tess pushed up from Rafe’s lap and began to pace. She could tell they were anxiously waiting her answer but before she decided she needed to know more about them.

  Tessa turned to face them, feeling a little less foggy in the head now that she had put some distance between them and their damned delectable wolf pheromones.

  “What do you do for a living? How old are you all? What do you see in a future with me?”

  Luc glanced over at his brothers and then back to her. “We own the Shifter Inn where we met, plus other numerous businesses in and around Sugar Creek but most of our time is spent here with our pack. We keep an eye on our businesses from our office here where we do most of the paperwork. Although we do like to spend time at the Inn. We make a tidy profit from all our business and the money is shared amongst our pack.”

  “Why do you have time to spend with me? Shouldn’t you be out working?”

  “We have a large pack, baby.” Rafe stood up and moved toward her.

  Tessa lifted her hand, palm outward. “Stop, I can’t think straight when you three are too close.” You make me want to accept this mating and see how good I suspect things between us could be. “Please answer the rest of my questions.”

  “Our pack members run our businesses. Each pack member gets a share in the profits as well as a generous wage. We have no need to work or worry about any of it because we trust our family. But that doesn’t mean we’re idle. As you were already told we do most of the paperwork for the businesses but nearly all our time is spent directing our pack members.”

  She looked at Gabe when he started to speak. “That’s not to say that we don’t work a lot, we do normally, but now that you are here we want to spend our time with you.”

  Lucien moved toward the fireplace and leaned against the mantel. “We want to mate with you, Tessa. Mating is so much more than a human marriage. Our commitment to you would be one of complete and utter devotion. If you agree to be our mate we would never want to be with or even look at another woman. We want to grow old with you and eventually have babies with you.”

  She studied his expression and was relieved to see sincerity in his gaze. Lucien meant every word he had just spoken and even though she was more than tempted to say yes, she was still hesitant.

  “Does a werewolf age the same way humans do?”

  “No.” Luc pushed off the mantle and walked toward her.

  Tessa couldn’t help but watch the way his quads rippled and bunched beneath his jeans. When she noticed the huge hard-on he was sporting, she hurriedly lifted her gaze to meet his.

  “I’m fifty years old. Rafe is forty-eight and Gabe is forty-five. We will live for around two hundred and fifty to three hundred years. If a wolf isn’t mated they’re more likely to die earlier than a mated wolf. I think the loneliness gets to be too much for their wolves.”

  “Shit! You don’t look a day over thirty.” Tessa glanced from Luc, to Rafe and Gabe and back to Luc again. “How can you want to be with me? I’ll be old and dead before you three even look like you’re getting old.”

  “Once we mate with you our DNA will be mixed with yours and you’ll age at the same rate we do.”

  Well that’s a plus.

  “Will I turn into a werewolf, too?” Her heart stuttered in her chest as she waited for the answer.

  “No,” Rafe said. “But you will be healthier, stronger, and your senses will be more enhanced. You won’t have to worry about getting sick with colds or flu or any other human illness.”

  There’s another plus.

  Tessa exhaled and then inhaled as she started to relax a little more.

  The more the Woolf brothers told her the more appealing mating with them became. Lucien was closer than before and she could smell those damn wolf pheromones again. Tessa had never smelled anything like it. The musky male mixed with pine was so sweet, she couldn’t help wanting to smell it again. And again. And yet again.

  Her panties were soaked through and she wondered if she had a wet spot on the back of her T-shirt, and her nipples were so hard and achy she hoped they didn’t poke a hole through the cotton material. Tessa was worried that she wouldn’t be enough for them. Enough to keep three men satisfied all the time and not just human men. They were shape-shifters and had more strength and stamina than she ever would, but she wanted their touch more than her next breath.

  She could continue to keep them at arm’s length and hope she didn’t go stark-raving mad with desire, or she could take a chance and reach out to them. And hopefully end up in a loving long term relationship. From what they’d said that was exactly what they expected to happen.

  Lucien had said they would be totally committed to her and that the mating was much stronger than a human marriage. Did that mean that they would hang around through thick and thin, through good times and not so good times?

  Tessa was seriously considering accepting their request to mate with them. Surely her instincts weren’t so far off this time. Plus, they had already proven they wouldn’t hurt her and would take care of her. Would she be a fool to pass up such an opportunity?

  She’d been so lonely for so long and craved to have someone to love and love her in return. That was why she had ended up with Darren even when she thought there was something a little off with him. She had ignored all the signs that something wasn’t right because she had someone giving her the attention she had so desperately craved. She knew now it had been the wrong decision since she was still grieving but as they saying went, “hindsight was a wonderful thing.”

  She’d been cautious while Darren had been courting her and look where that had gotten her. Used as a punching bag. It had taken six long months before she had even let him kiss her and another six months before she had accepted his marriage proposal. All things considered, maybe jumping in with both feet wasn’t so stupid after all. Plus she wanted to know what it would be like to be with them. The craving was so deep it was hard to breathe. If by chance it didn’t work out at least she would be able to look back on what it had been like to be touched by all three of them.

  Tessa just hoped that if everything fell apart she would be able to survive a broken heart and didn’t end up destroyed like her mother had. But she wasn’t her mother and had survived all the other adversity in her life so she would this as well, or she hoped so. It may take her a long time to get over them if things didn’t pan out, but at least she would have her memories. She wouldn’t take th
e path her mother had, drinking herself into oblivion. She rarely touched alcohol and wasn’t about to start now. She’d seen and experienced the effects too much drinking caused and wouldn’t do that to herself. It may be hard to deal with her grief if the relationship didn’t work out with them, but she figured taking one day at a time would eventually get her through the pain if that happened.

  “How do you claim me as your mate?”

  Luc was right next to her now and although he wasn’t touching her she could feel his body heat. “We would make love to you and while we do that our canines will drop and we would bite you.”

  “Won’t that hurt?”

  “Just for a moment, but then you would feel pleasure beyond belief. Our bite will make you come.”

  Tessa drew in a ragged breath and her pussy clenched and released more juices. She just hoped that Lucien, Gabe, and Rafe couldn’t smell her desire. As soon as that thought coalesced they all began sniffing the air and when she met each of their gazes she could see their hunger. They weren’t the only ones who were hungry and Tessa couldn’t take anymore. She had to know what it would be like to be with them. Even though she had only just met them, the need, the desire, inside her was a living entity and she couldn’t walk away. She wasn’t strong enough to leave them behind and never look back. She coveted this more than anything else she’d ever known, or felt.

  “Yes,” she finally answered in a whisper.

  Luc reached out and took her face between his hands, being careful not to hurt her bruised cheek, and she fell a little more for him. “Be very sure, Tessa, because once we claim you there is no going back.”

  “I’m sure.” Tess was pleased that her voice was stronger this time. Although there was still a lot of uncertainty in her mind, she wanted this more than she had ever wanted anything in her life. She just hoped that she was doing the right thing.

  Luc growled and then his mouth was on hers. He didn’t coax, he plundered. His lips covered hers and then his tongue was pushing into her mouth. His tongue slid along hers and then he swept it around every inch of her cavern. Without breaking the kiss he lifted her up into his arms and began walking. Tessa tried to open her eyes to see where he was taking her but they were weighted with desire and too heavy to open. She felt him walking up the stairs and then she knew where they were going.

  She heard a door slam and her back connected with the soft, comfortable mattress and Lucien followed her down, covering her body with his large, warm, hard one. She loved the sensation of his big body against hers and his weight, but Tessa knew he was keeping the bulk of his weight off of her so he wouldn’t crush her. Finally Lucien slowed the kiss until he was sipping at her lips and just as she thought he was going to raise his head, he sucked her bottom lip into his mouth. The act was so sensual she moaned with pleasure and then bit her lip to stop crying out when he pulled away. It was only then that she noticed Gabe and Rafe were on the bed on their knees on either side of her.

  Before she could blink Rafe grasped her upper arms and helped her to sit up, then he reached for the hem of her shirt and pulled it up and off over her head. Another set of hands tugged at her bra and then that too was flung aside.

  “Fucking beautiful.” Luc growled.

  “You have the most gorgeous breasts I have ever seen, honey.” Gabe took one of her breasts in his hand and started to knead her fleshy globe. Tessa whimpered and her eyes closed as she tilted her head back.

  “You have no idea how damn sexy and sensual you are, baby.” Rafe kissed her bare shoulder. “I can’t wait to get inside that hot, sweet-smelling, wet pussy.”

  “Oh God,” Tessa gasped.

  Lucien was now down at the end of the bed near her feet and she jumped when he began to caress her legs. “Easy, little bird, we are going to make you feel so good.”

  His hands moved higher and higher up her legs and when he got to her knees he placed them on the inside of her thighs and continued to rub as he caressed further up her limbs. When he reached her hips, he hooked his fingers into her panties and slowly slid them down her legs and off over her feet.

  Usually this was the moment Tessa became embarrassed at her voluptuous body being exposed, but the way these three men were looking at her made her feel feminine, beautiful, and sexy.

  Lucien pushed her thighs wide apart and as she watched him get comfortable between her splayed legs, more hands began to touch her body. Rafe leaned over her and kissed her hungrily while he cupped a breast and thrummed her nipple. When Rafe broke the kiss and moved back, Gabe’s warm mouth brushed across hers and then his tongue licked over her lips, seeking entrance. She opened to him with eagerness and then she tangled her tongue with his.

  She whimpered with need when Lucien’s hands gently caressed the folds of her labia and then a warm, thick finger rimmed the hole of her pussy, then slid up to her clit and gently rubbed it in light circles. Tessa was mindless with lust and overwhelmed with emotions. The Woolf men had managed to work their way under her skin in such a short amount of time and although she wanted this, wanted everything they did to her, wanted them to mate with her, she was still afraid she was going to get hurt. But those uncertainties could be dealt with later. Now was the time to feel and not think, so she pushed her thoughts aside and let their touch consume her.

  Chapter Five

  Tessa was nearly going out of her mind with desire. Lucien was sucking and licking her clit and she cried out when his finger rimmed her pussy hole and then drove in deep.

  Rafe and Gabe were laving and nibbling on her nipples, sending sparks of electricity straight down to her pussy while they caressed over her stomach, sides and torso. Lucien added another finger to her pussy and began to pump them in and out while flicking the tip of his tongue over her clit.

  Fire permeated her from the inside out and her arms, legs, and whole body began to shake. Her internal muscles rippled and clenched around Lucien’s fingers as her body made the climb up toward the peak. Having three sets of hands and mouths on all parts of her body was too much, but yet not enough, and then she was there, right on the edge of something so extraordinary her vision dimmed. Tessa screamed and her hips bowed off the bed as the most powerful climax she had ever had rocked her body.

  “That’s it Tess, give me your cream,” Lucien said in a deep, gravelly voice. He continued to pump his fingers in and out of her, letting her ride the waves of ecstasy until the final quake waned away. She was so limp and replete she never wanted to move again.

  Tessa opened her eyes to see Lucien, Rafe, and Gabriel staring at her with hunger. Looking down the length of her body, Tess watched as Lucien lowered his head to her pussy again and then she moaned with delight as his tongue tasted her from ass to clit. When he lifted his head and licked his lips as if savoring her essence, another shudder ran over her body, but the words that came out of his mouth had her libido sparking again.

  “Ambrosia. Give me more, my mate, come in my mouth. I would taste more of your cream.” Lowering his head once again, Lucien set about pleasuring her once more.

  Tessa writhed on the bed in ecstasy as the three men set about building her arousal again. Gabriel was kissing and nibbling at her neck and then he slid his tongue into her ear. Rafe was sucking at one nipple while plucking at the other with his fingers. Lucien continued to lap his tongue over her clit softly. It was too much, yet not enough. She gasped with pleasure and lifted her hips up into Lucien’s mouth, silently begging for more, yet shaking with sensitivity after the orgasm she’d just had.

  “It’s too much.”

  “It’s not enough,” Gabe whispered into her ear.

  Lucien stabbed his tongue into Tessa’s cunt, delving in deep to scoop up the cream her body was producing. He licked his way from her pussy hole and then up to her clit. He did this over and over again, until she thought she’d go mad with need.

  When he pressed a finger into her, she whimpered and shoved her hips forward. She could feel her cream leaking out of her pussy and o
nto her ass. She was so wet she felt like she was leaking like a faucet. Lucien added another finger to her cunt. Turning them, he hooked them into her pussy, searching out her G-spot. When he slid the pad of his fingers along the sweet rough spot inside her, Tessa bucked with pleasure. He put his other hand on top of her pubic bone to hold her down and then stroked into her, harder, faster, deeper, but all the while the pads of his fingers caressed over her G-spot. When he pulled back near her entrance, he hooked his fingers, tugging slightly.

  A funny feeling came over her and even though she was on the cusp of climax she needed to stop Lucien now. Reaching out, she grabbed hold of his hair and gave a slight jerk, trying to pull him away from her pussy.

  “Stop,” she gasped. “I need to…”

  Lucien didn’t stop plying her body with pleasure. In fact he seemed more determined to send her over the edge. She tensed, fighting the feelings trying to consume her. Gabe lifted his mouth from her breast, took her hands in his, and pinned them to the bed on either side of her head.

  “Let it go, Tessa. Don’t fight it, honey. Lucien is going to make you come like you have never come before.”

  “I’ve never…I don’t…I can’t…” Tessa whimpered.

  “Yes you can, honey. Let it go, it will be the best orgasm you’ve ever had. Just feel, feel what Lucien is doing to your sweet cunt. It feels good, doesn’t it, babe? It’s too much but not enough. Let him have your cum, baby. We’ll keep you safe.” Gabe thrust his tongue into Tessa’s ear again.

  Tessa could feel the tension in her womb and channel getting tighter and tighter. She felt like she was going to explode, and then she did. The pleasure was so great her whole body shook uncontrollably as orgasm took over. Tessa screamed and bucked as the biggest orgasm she’d ever had washed over her. Her whole body quaked and quavered and her juices gushed out. Her ears were ringing and she couldn’t see as her body continued to spasm and her vagina was still expunging cream. When her hearing came back she could hear Lucien growling as he lapped up all her cum.
