“Just. . .” He paused, thinking through his words. “Don’t let anyone tear you down again, no matter what happens. Believe in yourself.”
She twisted to face him. He was scaring her, not that he intended to. “What aren’t you telling me?”
“I just want you to be strong in the next few weeks. There are changes coming.”
She leaned into him, not wanting to think about what he’d said, how ominous his words sounded. If she could, she’d make this moment last forever, with him holding her, loving her.
Zev lifted her shirt and tossed it aside. “That’s a much better look for you than that ugly shirt of Jayce’s.”
Jayce wasn’t as large as the other men. His shirts fit her the best. “You’d rather I walk around naked all the time?”
“Hmm. You have a point.” He reached into his pants pocket and withdrew a leather cord. At the end of the cord dangled a bright red essence stone, an oblong rock that acted like a sponge absorbing a liquid, but never released the liquid until a person fully wrapped her hand around the stone for twenty seconds. Absorbing body heat released the liquid in the stone. Hundreds of years ago, women used the stone to store the semen of their husbands before they went off to war. The stone symbolized the promise of life, even in the face of death.
She couldn’t believe he’d found an essence stone on Veenith, or that he was giving it to her. Did he realize this was as meaningful as a mating ring?
As he placed it around her neck and tied the cord, he said, “It’s my promise to you, but it’s empty. I, ah, didn’t have time to fill it.”
“I guess you’ll have to do that when you return,” she said with a smile that pulled a grin from his handsome face.
They’d never discussed kids. It was not a concept she could consider on a prison world. She had never removed the illegal contraceptive Namir had given her. The last thing she’d ever wanted was to get pregnant by Namir or his friends. While she’d love a child with Zev or any of her men, she couldn’t allow that here on Veenith.
But the meaning of the stone was clear. Zev was promising to return to her someday. She hoped he could fulfill that promise.
Her fingers moved faster over his face and hair, trying to pull him to her. She’d never have enough of him.
He laid the smooth red stone against her skin, kissing it before his lips slid to her breast. His tongue played with her nipple, torturing her with the need for more. Her entire body moved, especially her hips, which ground against his hard length.
Even as Zev sucked on a breast, his hands curved over her ass and peeled her pants down. He stepped back, the lust in his eyes increasing as she removed her boots. He dropped his shirt, giving her the chance to feast her eyes on those finely sculpted muscles. His build wasn’t as large as Reece or Ivan, but he was in superb condition, with nicely defined muscles. She ran her hand over the peaks and valleys, then inside the band of his pants.
The bulge beneath the fabric made her lips water. She wanted to taste him one last time. She kissed his abs, and then followed that thin line of hair lower, taking his pants down with her.
Zev’s hands sifted through her hair, wrapping her hair around his hand as she took him in her mouth. His every moan made her work harder at pleasing him. She wanted more of those delicious noises, so loud that she’d feel the vibrations down to her pussy.
Without warning, he lifted her off of him and pressed her against a smooth area of the cave wall. His body pinned her as his cock slid into her. There was no foreplay, no fancy words, just Zev taking her as she needed him. Raw, hard, and with passion.
As she wrapped her legs around him, the orgasm struck, taking the wind from her as every nerve in her body lit up with exquisite torture. Her heels dug into his ass as her core fluttered around his cock. He slowed, but he didn’t stop moving.
“You’re mine, Mel,” he whispered in her ear as he resumed thrusting, harder, faster than before. As the sensitivity waned, her hips met him thrust for thrust until he released into her. They stayed there, with him holding her, his hands cupping her ass as his cock finished spurting inside her.
As he captured her in another kiss, he pulled her away from the cold wall and toward the entrance, her ankles still locked behind him. Over his shoulder, the magical sight of molten lava and glowing serilium pits lit the area like a masterful painting coming to life.
That’s when she noticed a figure in the shadows. At one corner of the cave, Reece stood, the bulge in his pants hard to miss. He’d been watching, and yet he’d kept his distance.
She laid her head against Zev’s, not ready to lose him. Reece moved closer, stroked her cheek as Zev held her. That lost expression of Reece’s crushed her every time.
“Kiss him, Mel,” Zev whispered.
Zev always knew what Reece needed, better than her at times. She leaned over, and Reece eagerly claimed her lips in a passionate kiss as Zev caressed her ass. He was still in her and getting harder by the minute.
Zev’s hands parted her ass, and he turned, placing her back to Reece’s front. A moment later, she felt a cock sliding into her ass. Zev’s eyes held her as Reece pushed into her from behind. A slight twinge of pain without lube, but she forced herself to relax. Then Zev’s lips claimed her once more. To ease the pain? To distract her? She didn’t know, but Reece had pushed past her muscles, slowly and carefully, his hands on her hips holding her steady.
And Zev’s cock hardened inside her.
No one spoke. Reece began to move, and she knew Zev felt Reece’s cock moving in her. The expression on Zev’s face heightened her arousal. She felt so full, and yet her pussy throbbed with the need for Zev to move.
“Fuck, that’s good,” Zev said as he breathed into the hollow of her neck. “So tight.”
Zev’s hips rocked against her. She couldn’t speak, didn’t want to speak. She needed tofeelevery stroke, every breath, every touch of these men as they took her. Together. As one. They moved in synch, Reece pulling out as Zev thrust forward. And when their cocks crossed mid-way, she felt another orgasm building, reaching higher and higher.
