But I couldn’t move, so Jac helped me to lay on my back once more, then settled on his side next to me. Deacon wedged himself between my legs and licked into me, and I gasped in shock. What he was doing after Jac just released inside of me was so damn filthy, I lost my mind.
“Fuck!” I couldn’t believe he wanted to do that, but it felt too good after such a masterful fucking. Like his tongue was there to soothe my battered and raw insides.
Jac chuckled against my ear, the sound a little more than depraved. “Don’t be so shocked, Sarah. OurclassedDeacon is averydirty boy. And it’s not like he hasn’t tasted my cum before.”
The image painted an erotic picture in my mind, elevating my desire. Each deep lick was another flame inside of me, and soon my body shamelessly rocked against his mouth. I was too lit up not to orgasm again, and it wasn’t long before I did.
“God, now!” I cried out.
Jac crushed his mouth to mine and kissed me, while Deacon made me come on the tip of his tongue. It was like an aftershock of an orgasm, and it brought friends. When the first one was over, another came into me. Jac pressed against the back of Deacon’s head to force his tongue even deeper into my pussy sothat it fucked me. His tongue lit me up with every pass, and I could not stop coming until I was utterly spent and exhausted.
It wasn’t until Deacon’s tongue finally slowed that I could breathe again. His tongue slipped out of me, as he licked me clean everywhere. Each sensual stroke calmed me down until I nearly dozed off. Finally, he kissed my belly and laid next to me, pulling me close to his side. Jac did the same, slinging an arm around my waist and settling on the other side of me.
Sandwiched between my guys, I fell asleep once more.
CHAPTER 22
Jacaranda
When I woke up, Deacon had spooned me, while I spooned Sarah. It was the best way to wake up, so I snuggled against them both and fell back to sleep.
Until I remembered it was the last time I would ever get to do this.
Then, my eyes were wide open. I breathed her in, absorbing Sarah’s essence as much as I could, while I still had her in my arms. She smelled and tasted differently when she was a Ladrian. Not better—just different. I adored both her forms, but itwasnice to not hold back with her anymore. Her human form was too fragile to do what I wanted to do to her.
All this time, I thought we might get the chance to do it as humans together…
I pushed the longing out of my mind and focused on what was next. Taking Sarah home. Gently, I elbowed Deacon to rousehim. He snorted awake, and we crept from the bed, dressed, and went into the hall.
The silence was heavy between us, because we both knew it was time. “You want me to take her home, don’t you?”
Deacon nodded, looking as miserable as I felt. “If you do not mind. I need to sort out what happens next with my father, and that will take some time. I am uncertain of what to do about the conduits, now that she is going back.”
“We can stick with my original plan. I will go to Volatile and ask him about hisotherchildren. We will go from there. If that sounds—”
“Very likely,” Deacon cut in wryly. “But I need to speak to my father first, to ensure Volatile would be agreeable to such a thing.”
I sighed and dragged my fingers through my loose hair. “I hate saying goodbye to her,” I said, my tone gruff.
He nodded solemnly. “As do I, but I cannot and will not force her to stay.”
I met Deacon’s gaze, wondering where that left the two of us. “Does her leaving change things between us?”
Deacon glanced down at our shoes and said, “I hope not.”
“Same here.” I took his handsome face in my hands and kissed him. But it wasn’t as passionate as our other kisses we’d recently come to enjoy. We were both too depressed for that. Still, it was a good kiss. A comforting one.
When I finally lifted my head from his, I took a deep breath and said, “We should wake her and get on with it, don’t you think?”
He nodded in agreement. “The sooner, the better for these kinds of things, I suppose. I have never had a relationship end quite like this, so I am unfamiliar with the protocol.”
“Me, too.”
We walked back into the room, and Sarah was already awake, but still in her Ladrian form.
“Hey, guys,” she said softly, her eyes lacking their normal luster. “When should we head back to Earth?”
“Soon. If we can,” I said, knowing it made no sense to put off the inevitable. “If that’s okay.”
