Nos captures me midway towards his brother and swings me around in a circle. “Sweetheart, you’re mated to pirates. You’re never going to win this one. Trust me.”
“They can’t just—”
“Normally, I’d agree with you,” Klaus mutters, approaching my free side and pressing a kiss to my cheek. “Piracy is absolutely deplorable. But, if you think about it logically, this is likely the only contract you’ll take which will generate such a windfall. In accepting the new queen’s gold, we’ve financed future trips.”
My jaw drops. “Not you too!” He’s supposed to be my principled mate. “I thought you’d be above such things?”
“Accepting payment for services rendered isn’t piracy,” he reminds me, his breath fanning over my throat. “Besides, short of forcing Val to sail us back and return the jewels, what can be done about it now?”
“Better to spend our energy on something vastly more enjoyable,” Nos agrees, kissing the curve of my ear.
I shiver, my entire body on board with what they’re suggesting. My nipples harden into sharp points, and when Klaus shifts his hand to cup one of my breasts, my knees almost buckle. Instead, I claim his mouth in a hard kiss, showing him without words how much I love him.
Then I turn and give Noster the exact same treatment. My eyes slide closed as I fall into the two of them, only to fly open as ice trickles up my spine and feathers across my ribs.
Kier.
A glance around the deck reveals that all of my men are watching me with heated looks. Even Val, leaning against the ship’s wheel, is watching what Nos and Klaus are doing without blinking. It’s been far too long since we were alone, and judging by the heat in their eyes, my men agree. A pair of strong arms sweeps me off my feet and I know it’s Rysen when the trip to my cabin is so fast my vision blurs. By the time we reach the bed, I’ve lost my boots and the soft velvet dress. I wasn’t wearing underwear, so I fall back onto the covers completely nude.
I don’t stay still for long. Ropes drop from the ceiling like extensions of Val’s body, coming to caress my skin in teasing flicks. They surround my limbs, forming loops that pin my calves to my thighs and spread my legs wide. My arms are nudged behind my back until each of my hands is clasping the opposite forearm. Then they’re secured in place.
The last trick? The ropes lift me from the bed completely, suspending me above it like an offering hung for my men’s enjoyment.
I could escape so easily, blink into the shadow realm before Val realises what I’ve done. But that’s not the point.
This is about them having my body on display. My pleasure theirs to control.
I fucking love it.
Cas lets out a low whistle. “Captain, I don’t think I’ve ever really appreciated your magic until right this second.”
“You and me both,” Rysen admits, voice muffled slightly by the fangs which have dropped down past his lower lip.
My vampire’s eyes are red with lust. He scans my body from head to toe, and then back again, focusing on my neck.
Just imagining his fangs sinking into me has my pussy creaming. A trickle of moisture drips free, running all the way down my exposed seam.
“Bite me,” I plead.
Ry grins around his fangs. “We’ll get to that,” he promises, climbing onto the bed and stroking a finger along the underside of my left breast. “But I shouldn’t wear you out before your other mates have had their turn.”
“You better not,” Val mutters, reaching forward to test the wetness which must be glistening at my core. His thumb traces a path from my entrance up to my clit. Circles once.
My whole body jerks against the ropes, and he grins. “Does that feel good?”
I open my mouth to reply, but all that falls out is a breathy moan as Nos feels his way across my body, kissing a path from my hip up to my right breast before trying to take the whole thing in his mouth.
“He asked you a question,” Cas reminds me. He’s still standing back from the others, waiting for his turn.
“It’s rude to ignore the captain,” Rysen teases, tugging my other nipple lightly in punishment.
“Yes, it feels good,” I retort.
“Fuck, you’re so wet.” Val sinks a finger into me, watching with an awed look on his face as he continues to circle my clit with his thumb.
“Then fuck me already.” I groan.
Ry gives my nipple another pinch before releasing it so that he can take it into his mouth. My body trembles under the attention. Both his and Nos’s tongues are flicking and swirling the hard peaks until I can’t take much more. Val ignores my writhing and continues to give me the shallowest of thrusts, despite my cunt clenching greedily, trying to draw his finger deeper.
