other through the thin wall of her body.
“Tessa, sweetheart, you are so beautiful. You are everything,” Jared murmured as he gripped her around her waist, his cock throbbing. She could feel his heartbeat in her body. Then he moved his face over her shoulder, and he and Parker were kissing while Tessa trembled in their arms. When Jared pulled back, Parker smiled at her.
“Darling, I’ve loved you for years, even if you didn’t know it. Relax, we’ll take care of you.” Parker began to move, his thick cock sliding from her very slowly, then back inside. Tessa couldn’t do anything except moan as she felt every inch of him plunge into the softest part of her body. Jared gasped and began to move, too, in time with Parker—one man in, the other out. She sensed the forest welling up again—she closed her eyes and gave into it, feeling utterly at home. Utterly safe. The men held her firmly, gently. She scented the leaves dancing in the trees as her orgasm crept closer and closer.
“I’m close,” she whispered, clenching her fists around the sheets until Parker bent down to lick her neck. She grabbed his shoulders when he opened his mouth and put his teeth against her skin. The next thing she knew, Jared was snarling on the other side of her head, nuzzling down against the delicate spot beneath her ear. She shook, feeling the sharp points of his teeth, then shuddered as both men bit down simultaneously. The pain was exquisite. She thought she screamed as her orgasm crashed open, the men groaning in unison. It was like running in the middle of an earthquake—the trees, the ground shifted around her as she grabbed onto her men. They were solid. Strong. They kept her safe when the pleasure raked through the three of them again and again. When it was done, Tessa realized she had no idea how long their climax lasted, but she knew when it was done, her body drifting gently down upon Parker as Jared’s strong arms closed around them both. The bond sizzled inside her even as they fell into darkness together.
Chapter 6
“I’m just saying, I’m getting a little tired of all this fainting shit,” Tessa griped. The three of them sat in Jared’s kitchen, the two men wolfing down a fourth sandwich while Tessa picked at her third. She’d never eaten so much at once in her life.
“I don’t mind you fainting,” Parker said, wiping at his lips with a snowy napkin.
Tessa glared at him but couldn’t hold on to her irritation. She was too happy about the bonding and too distracted by her gorgeous bond-mates. That white napkin looks great against his golden skin . In fact, his entire body had a sort of copper glow to it. Even the deep black of his bonding tattoo held a sheen of metallic copper, almost as though it was three-dimensional. Strangely, Tessa swore she could smell the color more than see it. Weird. All of this is weird, from the bonding to the strange visions.
“Thank you, baby.” Parker took another huge bite of roast beef, ignoring the crumbs of bread that fell onto the table.
Tessa rolled her eyes. “Oh my God, you are disgusting.”
Jared grinned and finished his beer. “He is. I agree.” He delicately wiped his mouth with his napkin, every movement graceful. Parker flicked him off, and Jared laughed. Tessa tried very hard not to think about the loveliness of Jared’s face against the napkin, but judging by his wink, she wasn’t very successful. He, too, sported a glow—mostly silver. If she closed her eyes, she could smell it, like a sharp, fresh mint. His paw-print tattoo was just as deep a black, but it looked like it had an edge of silver to it. If she squinted, Tessa could tell the metallic sheen went all the way through the tattoo.
Idiots, both of them . “As I was saying—”
“Yes, yes, we know. You don’t want to do the fainting thing anymore. Don’t worry, I won’t hold it against you,” Parker teased.
Tessa wanted to smack him. Good thing I love you, you arrogant
