Page 40 of Ivory's Familiars

Wanting to play and needing to mark her territory once and for all, she allowed her claws to unsheathe and score lightly over Ronan’s back. She didn’t draw blood but she was sure there would be long red streaks as a testament to her beast. A deep growl rumbled through her lover’s chest and she saw his pupils transform into vertical slits as his panther responded to its mate. He slipped his hands under her back and flipped her quickly and unceremoniously onto her stomach. She found herself with her butt high in the air and her shoulders pushed onto the giving mattress. She shivered when she recalled Ronan’s words upon first learning they were mates; he wanted to mount her and sink his teeth into her. Oh boy, she sure hoped he was about to follow through.

Apparently, Seth also liked the idea because he withdrew from a complaining, cursing Vaughn, forcing him onto his hands and knees before holding him steady and plunging back into him in one smooth motion. Ivory ate up the sight, reaching out to run a hand through Vaughn’s sweaty hair. He turned his face towards hers, smiling with his breath panting harshly, and she saw his eyes flick beyond her. A second later, warm hands stroked over her back from neck to rump, before Ronan’s fingers found her core, testing her readiness. He needn’t have bothered – she had been drenched since she stepped into the doorway.

“Ronan, now,” she begged, pushing her hips back and wiggling her arse provocatively from side to side. One stinging slap to her left butt cheek had her crying out in surprise and desire. That had felt good – too good – and she glanced over her shoulder at Ronan so he could see the pleasure in her gaze. He smirked a little, lodging the head of his cock at her entrance for one heart-stopping second before plunging into her heated depths. He set a demanding pace and all she could do was grip the sheets beneath her and hang on for the ride. All too soon, she began to feel the tell-tale clenching of her womb and tingling in her clit.Just a little bit more,she thought. Just like magic, Ronan reached around, placing a heavy thumb on her clit, stroking firmly even as she felt elongated canines sink into the flesh where her neck met her shoulder.

She detonated. There was no other word for it. She screamed, biting into the sheets, shuddering as her body clenched in a seemingly endless spasm of pleasure. Spots danced in front of her eyes – a series of snarls, groans, and roars meeting her ears as each man also became lost in the pleasure of the moment. She slumped onto the mattress, all strength alluding her. She received a soothing kiss between the shoulder blades from Ronan as he moved from behind her and she murmured tiredly in thanks. Commanding her neck muscles to move, she watched Seth pull from Vaughn carefully, gently laying him down on a clean area of the sheets. They were a mess.

She gave about a second’s thought to forcing them all into the shower but Vaughn was already cuddling up beside Ronan where he had collapsed in a sated heap. The two had the goofy, satisfied looks of the well-fucked and she didn’t have the heart to chastise them for not cleaning up. The mattress dipped and she saw Seth had returned with a couple of warm washcloths. He set about gently tidying up a snoozing Vaughn and a contented Ronan. Judging by the way neither man moved, she assumed this was a regular occurrence. Her Seth, the youngest of the three men and the most light-hearted, was also the most nurturing.

After he finished with the men, she allowed him to tend to her as well, opening her arms in welcome after he threw the washcloths back into the bathroom. He rolled her on top of him, apparently deciding she was going to be his blanket for the night, “Seth?”

“Hmm?”

“I love you.”

She felt his arms tighten around her and his breath stutter from his chest. She raised her head, her jaguar allowing her to see just fine in the dark. His eyes were open and focused on hers – and he was smiling that same smile filled with love; “I love you too.”

She kissed him, pouring out her passion and love and happiness.Three for three. I got my trifecta. High five!she mentally cheered.

“I love you too, Ronan. I love you, Vaughn,” Seth followed up, making sure his other lovers knew where they stood – always right beside him, Ivory knew.

“I love you too, Seth,” Ronan replied from the darkness.

“Yes, yes. We all love each other. We’re just one big happy fucking family. Now can you all shut up and go to sleep?”

Ivory felt her mouth drop open for a moment before she laughed, sharing her amusement with Ronan and Seth. Vaughn sure did have a way with words.

Because they were indeed, one big happy fucking family.
