Sebastian lifted her shoulders and sat behind her, supporting her as she floated back to earth. He couldn't resist reaching down to tease her pouting nipples. They bloomed under his touch and her eyes opened.
«You didn't feed, little one.»
She looked up at him, a charming, embarrassed flush staining her cheeks. He realized she probably perceived his words as criticism and it hit him like a blow to the chest. He hated the look of self-conscious insecurity on her face. Dipping his head, he kissed her open mouth, wiping the fear away with his tongue as he turned her around to face him on the couch.
«That wasn't a complaint about your performance.» He drew back to meet her gaze. «Merely an observation. You need to feed.»
A smile broke over her lips and warmed his heart. «So what do you want me to do?»
«Go to Matt.» Those three words were harder than any he'd ever spoken, though she'd never know it. He didn't have it in him to push her toward the other man, but she turned nonetheless, following his spoken orders.
Matt tipped his head to the side, guiding her with one hand on the nape of her neck. Matt watched Sebastian, and Sebastian watched them both.
«Feel for the sweet spot with your tongue,» Sebastian coached. «Take your time. Reach out and dampen his pain with your mind if you can.» Sebastian checked, extending his own power, glad to find she was already exerting her new power to protect Matt. She was a natural when it came to not causing another being pain, but he should have expected it. Her life to this point had been one of self-sacrifice to the point of foolishness. «Have you found it?»
She nodded slightly as she dragged her luscious lips over Matt's neck. Sebastian envied the younger man in that moment, more than he'd ever envied another being in his long life.
«When you're ready, bite him. Do it fast to cause the least trauma.»
Sebastian felt the moment of her decision, saw the way her delicate jaw moved, clamping down on Matt's corded throat as she sank her teeth in and sucked. Matt jumped too, but in a movement of pleasure, not pain. Sebastian could clearly see the werecougar's cock hardening once more next to Christina's hip.
She fed well this time, letting go just at the point where Sebastian would have told her to leave off.
«Very well done, my dear,» Sebastian complimented her as she smiled. Her new fangs were petite, just like her, and sexier than hell.
«You taste good, Matt. Have I thanked you yet for helping me this way?» Her eyes grew serious as she turned to the other man. «I'll never be able to repay you,» her voice broke with emotion, «for this gift.» She held out her hand, taking Sebastian's, surprising him. «Either of you.» She squeezed Sebastian's fingers. «You gave me a second chance, and you,» she looked at Matt, «have given me a strength I'd never otherwise have. Sebastian told me, Matt, and all I can do is say thank you.» She shrugged with a soft smile. «It seems inadequate.»
Matt regarded her with a serious expression. «Just promise me you'll use this power well. Help others when you can.»
She nodded. «I will. I promise.»
«That's good enough for me.» Matt stood and picked her up, dumping her back on the sectional couch on her hands and knees. «Now for some more fun. Are you game?»
Sebastian fled the couch, afraid if he stayed near her head, he wouldn't be able to resist the idea of feeling her mouth on his cock. That would come soon enough. Tonight was for her. He had to keep reminding himself of that.
By the time he looked back, Matt had mounted her from behind, driving his cock deep as she moaned, her breasts swinging in a rhythmic, arousing display under her as Matt pounded home. He varied the speed and depth of his thrusts, kneeling behind her on the couch, watching her ass with a speculative expression.
«If you were a cougar, and we were fucking in our fur,» Matt mused as he stroked his big hands over her rear, «your tail would be right about…» he spread her cheeks and rubbed one big thumb over, then above the tiny hole, «…here.» He rubbed again and she moaned. He sped up his thrusts, both nearing another pinnacle. «Fucking as a cat is nice, but nothing beats…the human…experience.» He punctuated his words with hard thrusts that lifted her off her knees as she cried out in the grip of another huge orgasm.
Matt followed her over the cliff, but pulled out after a few quick spurts inside her, spending himself in the crack of her ass. Sebastian almost feared what he could predict was coming next.
Matt leaned over her, resting a moment as he used one hand to rub his semen into the crack of her ass, using it as lubrication for his fingers. One dipped inside the tight rosette as she whimpered, but it wasn't in distress. Sebastian watched her every reaction. He'd stop this at the first sign of trouble, regardless of the fact that she needed as much of Matt in her-in every place possible-to grow as strong as she possibly could from this encounter.
«You like this, sweetheart?» Matt whispered as he bit down on her earlobe. «You like my fingers in your ass?»
She panted as he added another finger, stretching her. «Yes!» she cried and Sebastian's cock hardened to the point of pain at the sexual anguish in her voice. «Yes!»
«Then you'll like this even more, I bet.» Matt didn't rush. He pulled his fingers from her, observing her level of readiness before proceeding. He was nothing if not a careful lover, which Sebastian was glad of at this moment. He wouldn't have trusted any other man to initiate Christina this way. Matt rose so he could feed his cock-hard once again-into the tight rosette he'd stretched and made ready.
Sebastian moved closer, lured by the sight. He was entranced by the look on Christina's beautiful face. She was in some far-off place where pleasure mixed with pain. He knew it well. It was the realm of the vampire, the one that fed them and claimed them as they fed. Ecstasy edged with the barest hint of pain was their existence.
Matt, by contrast, was earthy and very mortal, regardless of the fact he would live the length of several human lifetimes, as did most were. He was careful with Christina, but he could never understand that realm where the vampire dwelled and flourished. Not completely.
Sebastian wanted so badly to join Christina in that place. He wanted to be inside her, his cock in her pussy, his fangs in her flesh, hers in his as they fed on each other, so close none could tell where one began and the other ended. He wanted all that. With her. Only her.
But not yet. He could wait. He must.
Once more should do it.
Let Matt have her this one last time and then she could rest and recover. Sebastian would bide his time until she became his alone.
Matt seated himself fully in her tight ass as Sebastian watched, his mouth dry, his pulse pounding through his body. Matt shifted and sat back on the couch, bringing
Christina with him in an unexpected move that set off another climax in her quivering body. Matt sat, content to have her on his lap, her legs straddling his, his cock buried in her ass.
But Christina wasn't coming down. She was strung taut on the edge of something huge, and clearly in distress. Sebastian moved in front of her, wanting to help. Her eyes opened and the fire in her gaze struck him like a body blow. Her expression pleaded.
«Sebastian!»
Matt's hands moved around and spread her pussy, playing with her clit as Sebastian watched, entranced. «There's room for one more here, old buddy. Want to join us?» The werecougar licked her ear and bit down on the fleshy lobe from behind. «I bet she'd like it.» Matt seemed unaware of the danger. Sebastian was a man on the edge of control, a beast barely leashed.
