Page 39 of Hers to Claim

Mari spread her thighs slightly, relieving some of the pressure before lowering herself to engulf more of Cisco.

“Now be a good boy, Rio, and do as your queen commands.” She tossed him a wink over her shoulder. “Fill me up.”

His fingers flexed around her hip, his claws digging in slightly. And then he began to move.

At first she tried to roll her hips to encourage him, but she quickly abandoned that plan when any movement at all on her part tensed her muscles and made everything sharper to the point where the pain overwhelmed the pleasure. Moaning, she gave up and tried to relax between them.

Cisco wrapped her hair around his fist and pulled her down to him, both anchoring her and angling her so that her hips opened more. “You love getting fucked like this, don’t you? Hard and filthy and right on the edge,” he growled in her ear. “You don’t need to answer because you’re dripping all over my dick as he fucks you.”

Rio delved deeper in that moment, cutting off any response she might have made into a groan that shook her whole body.

Her entire world became the pressure and release of the both of them working in tandem inside her. Stretching her. Branding her inside and out with the intensity of their desire for her. She had no idea how anything could feelthisgood and this dangerous all at once. How her magic could soar this high and not burn her to cinders.

Keening cries tore from her throat and filled the room, weaving together with the grunts of the men on either side of her to make the sexiest soundtrack she’d ever heard.

Eventually Mari couldn’t do anything but rest against Cisco’s shoulder, panting for breath. She trembled between them as they found a rhythm to their strokes that threatened to shatter her into splinters. The relentless pressure rose and fell in time with the surging bodies around her. She was simply the vesselthat they strained to fill as her power spread and engulfed them both.

She hung on as long as she could, nails dug into Cisco’s arms until she would have drawn blood if his skin hadn’t been so supernaturally tough. She could only concentrate on taking her next breath and the rising ache that burned within her.

And then she detonated.

That was the only word for the force of the pleasure and magic that tore through her body like a wildfire and out into the men around her and the room beyond them and who knew how far. Mari was aware of every frantic contraction of her tortured muscles as time slowed to a crawl.

Dohal’s murmur of approval rose up around her. “A delicious offering. Your acolytes please me by servicing you so well.”

She couldn’t respond and perhaps there was no need as orgasm after orgasm rolled through her, set off by first Rio, and then Cisco when they succumbed and finally came inside her.

The moment stretched out to an eternity as she clenched around them both, dripping with their mingled fluids. She shivered with a thrill at the filthy image she must have made for Dohal if he was watching. His knowing chuckle echoed around in her skull and faded into the distance.

Time jerked back into motion with no warning. She couldn’t have moved even if she had the energy to. Rio was collapsed over her, nuzzling the back of her neck. She rocked with each of Cisco’s hard breaths. Her cunt throbbed distractingly as both of them slowly softened inside her. At this point, she wasn’t sure if it would ever stop.

Rio shifted slightly, seeming like he was planning on moving soon, and Mari groaned in protest.

Cisco wrapped an arm around both of them and held Rio where he was. “Nope. I need a cuddle pile after that one.”

“Me too.” Mari snuggled into his chest.

Rio settled over them with a put-upon sigh, but started purring at once.

Chapter 12

Mari and Pricilla wereworking on some tandem magic for the first time in Mari’s office. It was the closest they’d ever been to each other, and part of the problem was that Mari’s magic kept drifting off task wanting to rub up against Pricilla’s. The other witch smiled with good humor when the complex bit of shielding they were working on collapsed for what must have been the tenth time when chaos broke out.

The klaxon alarms blared. Rather than launching to her feet in a panic, Mari reached out for the wards. Thanks to Pricilla’s teaching, she knew where the hooks to the security system were. She scanned through until she found the problem and frowned. Dasher and Dancer were back, along with Karma in wolf form, and someone else. The presence of the unknown person is what had set off the perimeter alarms.

Mari shut the alarm down and reset it, then opened her eyes. Cisco had crossed both of their offices to stand over her, ready to dive to protect her if someone attacked.

“Karma and the twins are back with someone else,” Mari said. She didn’t recognize the magical signature of the person, so she couldn’t be more specific than that.

Cisco’s eyes widened, and then he dashed for the front entry with a powerful flap of his wings. Mari shrugged in response to Pricilla’s questioning glance, and they both moved off after him on foot.

They met Rio at the door. He was clearly waiting for them, but staring after where Cisco had gone. As soon as they drew even with him he moved off, leading the way, his head scanning the area around them.

Cisco pulled open the front doors as Mari and company turned the last corner. Dasher pushed through, carrying someone who struggled bundled in his arms.

After a moment, Mari recognized Nova by her crown of copper snakes. The snakes were limp and listless, even though Nova was thrashing. Cisco roared, his wings flaring.

Everyone in the entryway but Mari fell to their knees as Cisco’s magic struck out. The force of his presence was magnificent, and while she understood the urge, she felt no need to prostrate herself before him. Cisco realized after a moment what he had done and pulled his power back into himself. Without a word, Cisco reached for Nova, and Dasher passed her over with his eyes cast down.
