were
all together. You never seemed to expect another set of hands or lips touching
you.”
“It’s been a while since we’ve seen it, though. Is
something wrong, nari ?” Linc’s hand cupped her cheek. He looked
concerned and his voice rumbled through her as though it was a rolling bolt of
thunder.
She swallowed hard and shook her head. They couldn’t be
calling her mate. This couldn’t be real. It couldn’t be the future. They didn’t
want a mate. Colm didn’t want a real mate. It had to be a dream, a simple
dream. Shock and disbelief did little to cool the hunger building inside her.
Even though she knew it was impossible, she wanted to touch them, hold them and
make them hers.
“Seems as if it’s something to me, but if you want to
pretend for a little while, we can try to go back to what we were doing before
you got startled.” Linc traced his finger over her upper lip.
Anything, she’d try anything to change the subject,
because she wasn’t going to try to explain this, even to a dream Linc and Colm.
“Just kiss me.”
“I love kissing you.” Colm nibbled his way along her jaw
and cheek to her lips.
She turned her head and fastened her mouth to his. Her
tongue slid against his. His big hand cupped the back of her head and gentled
the kiss. Hands drew up her outer thighs and spread them wide. She drew in a
breath and stiffened, but Colm didn’t release her.
“It’s just Linc, nari ,” Colm whispered the words
against her lips.
He turned his head and looked at Linc. She didn’t have to
see his expression to know that he wondered what was wrong with her. Linc drew
his fingers over her clit. She gasped and a shiver ripped over her body. The
sweet, intense sensation rippled through her, spreading until she ached for
more of it.
“Do it again.” She met Linc’s eyes.
He smiled and deliberately trailed his fingers over the
glistening lips of her pussy. Just when she thought he’d flick across the hood
of her clit, Colm pressed her back against the mattress. Her eyes caught on the
expanse of broad chest so near to her and she couldn’t stop running her hands
across the warm flesh. She enjoyed the feel of his muscles beneath her fingers
for a time before letting them wander to the dark, flat nipples. She scraped
her nails across them before pinching one.
Colm captured her hands and smiled down at her with
wicked intent. “Maybe I’d like to play with you too.”
“Kiss me again.” She licked her lips as nervousness
fluttered through her. She tugged a little against his hold. Being trapped or
secured made her nervous.
He looked down at her and released one of her hands
before nuzzling her neck. “I’m going to kiss you my way.”
His mouth trailed over her shoulder. She wriggled at the
slight, tickling sensation. All of her senses seemed to heighten. She didn’t
know what he was going to do. Her skin tingled with each touch. His tongue
swirled across her shoulder and then he kissed his way down her chest.
Her fingers threaded into his hair. She wanted his mouth
on her breast. He blew a hot puff of air over the taut nipple. She shivered and
arched her back. His tongue flicked over the tip in a teasing little lash. She
tightened her hand on his hair, trying to get his mouth on that aching point.
He didn’t budge. A fingertip brushed her clit. Her hips bucked up in demand.
Linc’s hands pressed her thighs wider. He moved between
them and caught her eyes. “I’m going to get a taste of you.”
Her eyes widened, but before she could do more than draw
in a breath, his tongue swiped from her entrance up over her clit. Her hand
tightened in Colm’s hair and her body bowed as a slice of raw pleasure slammed
through her. Linc didn’t hesitate. His tongue swept across her clit again and
again.
Colm’s hand cupped her breast just as his mouth closed
over the peak of the other. The combined sensation washed over her and she
couldn’t think. Two fingers pushed into her pussy and began
