Tangled Redemption (14 page)

Tension thickened the air in the room. Her breathing grew
uneven.

Miguel continued to type but didn’t stop looking at her. He
finished up whatever he was doing and set the comp aside. To do that he had to
reach behind Jayden’s back. As he pulled back his arm Jayden’s eyes widened.

Sydney couldn’t see, but she had a feeling that Miguel had
just cupped Jayden’s very fine ass.

Jayden’s lids fluttered and he arched his back. His shirt
moved, telling Sydney Miguel had pushed his hand underneath, stroking Jayden’s
back. Her mouth grew dry. Part of her wanted to change position and watch them
close-up. Another part found this peekaboo so sexy she couldn’t move.

Jayden balled his fists but kept his eyes closed.

Miguel’s expression grew tighter. He lifted his other hand and
stroked Jayden’s rock-hard abs. Sydney loved the tight muscles. She moaned when
Miguel lifted the shirt and caressed the skin beneath. She caught a glimpse of
Jayden’s pale skin and remembered the sleek feel under her fingertips. Jayden’s
arousal strained his trousers and a low moan escaped him.

In the end she couldn’t stand it any more and stepped closer.

Jayden’s eyes jumped open. The fire in them burned her to
cinders. Moisture gathered between her legs. She shrugged out of the bulky
jacket. The thin bra in the shirt did little to hide her peaked nipples. She
sank to her knees before Jayden. Before she even touched him he moaned.

She couldn’t stop the little laugh and shot Miguel a glance.
Fire burned in his eyes, but she saw a spark of laughter as well.

A funny feeling curled through her heart and for a moment
the link between them shimmered with every red imaginable. She swallowed at the
reminder that he didn’t want to take that step with her. She understood why,
especially now as she began to understand what he’d sacrificed. But the little
girl deep at her core still wished for that partner—or in her case
partners
—who
accepted her unconditionally. She’d rather have a day filled with love and
happiness than a life filled with emptiness. Miguel didn’t see it the same way.

So she smiled at him, allowing her eyes to share the depth
of her feelings.

His widened. His hand clenched in Jayden’s shirt.

The other Vampire covered that hand with his own and pressed
it against his stomach. Miguel looked down and when he raised his gaze again he
had retreated behind the wall again.

Regret shimmered through her, but right here and right now
was neither the time nor the place to have this battle. Things between the
three of them were still too fragile and new. Instead she focused on Jayden.

With a naughty smile she undid the top button of his
trousers and pulled down the zipper. He groaned as his cock escaped the confines
of the cloth. It looked delicious. She wrapped her hand around the base and
licked along the thick member. It twitched in her grasp. She bent it back so
she could lick along the sensitive length and focused on the little spot just
beneath its head.

Jayden thrust his hands into her hair. Out of the corner of
her eye she saw Miguel stroking up Jayden’s chest and teasing his nipples. She
wanted to watch, but the treat before her was too delectable.

Sydney wrapped both hands around the hard member and sucked
the head into her mouth. She teased it with the tip of her tongue and sucked
rhythmically. His grip tightened on her short strands of hair and she welcomed
the slight pain.

Miguel rose and stood behind Jayden, his fingers rolling and
tweaking his hard nipples.

Sydney loved how they’d sandwiched Jayden between the two of
them, how their pleasure was shared among all three. She increased the pressure
of her hands and sucked hard enough to hollow her cheeks. She rubbed her thumb
over the fine skin and slid her hand down until she cupped his tight balls.

He groaned and his whole body stiffened. “I’m close, love.
Be sure this is what you want.”

She nearly rolled her eyes.
Dufus.
Instead of
responding she teased the sensitive sac with different strokes. When she
circled the head of his cock with her tongue and increased the pressure on his
balls, he broke.

She swallowed and continued to stroke and caress his member
until all tension drained from him and he stroked her hair with gentle hands.
She met his gaze and released him with one final kiss.

Jayden cupped her cheek. “Thank you, love. That was
amazing.” He helped her to her feet and curled his arm around her waist. He
thrust his other hand deep into Miguel’s dark hair and dragged the other man
close for a hard kiss.

Fire flashed through her when their tongues tangled and set
her already oversensitive body aflame. She moved closer and wrapped an arm
around each waist. They pulled back from each other, but their gazes clung.

Jayden so pale and Miguel so dark were like night and day
meeting. “Jade, you two are sexy together.”

They turned to her. Miguel’s brows rose and Jayden laughed.
“Thank you.”

She loved them.

Sydney’s complete body froze for a second. She had been so
certain she loved Marius, but that had turned out to be loneliness and wishful
thinking. After all her mistakes with men, how could she be certain this wasn’t
another one?

Then she imagined something happening to either or both men
and her heart cracked wide open. She would die.

For a moment she wished Tansasha were here. Her best friend
had a way of drilling down to the core issues, highlighting them and usually
offering a solution as well.

She met their gazes, Miguel’s dark and filled with shadows,
Jayden’s more open, his head slightly tilted in question.

Yes, they are it. No question.

She had no clue how this could work out. Three very
different personalities and backgrounds, not to mention the fact that they were
stuck in the center of a Feral compound and its leader planned a major attack
in less than a day. “Are we done here? We should move this to a more
comfortable environment. One that includes a bed.”

Both men turned predatory.

Sydney loved how they instantly gave her their full attention
and always responded.

Miguel pulled her close and kissed her brains out. When he
pulled back, fire pulsed in every part of her body and her knees were a little
week. She slumped against him. Jayden wrapped his arm around both of them,
sandwiching her between two hard and delicious bodies.

She was theirs and they were hers. Now she just had to find
a way to survive and escape this insane situation alive and ensure they
returned her feelings.

Piece of cake.

Jayden walked behind Miguel and Sydney down the long
corridors, his thoughts swirling through his head like an out-of-control space
cruiser and his blood pounding through his body, most of it going south. It
looked like the Spaniard was in the same spaceship as Jayden—undercover. That
was the only reason he could think of that Miguel would leave himself as open
as he had.

They had both taken that first step into trust. A step that
excited and worried Jayden at the same time. But it had been taken, so there
was nothing he could do about it other than keep going. And this walk took him
back to the most erotic duo he had ever encountered.

He loved that Miguel had initiated a physical relationship.
His touch had been fierce and edgy, just as Jayden had imagined. He couldn’t
wait for them to go further. For a moment he studied Sydney’s gorgeous ass
before him and imagined thrusting into her as Miguel lunged into him. And at
some point he definitely wanted to push Miguel down on the bed, chair or table
and devour him.

Everyone was a little shaky, uncertain if the step they had
all taken was the right one or would bite them on their collective asses.

That made for explosive chemistry. They strode into Miguel’s
room and slammed the door behind them. Sydney yanked off the jacket Miguel had
made her put back on for the walk over and flung it over the back of a chair.
Her hard nipples were clearly outlined against the soft fabric when she turned
to them and stood with her hands on her hips.

“I love every single thing you have done to me so far, but I
think it’s time to turn over a new leaf.”

Jayden loved her brassy posture and the demand in her voice.
“What do you have in mind?”

Her smile lit up the room. “I think the two of us should
focus our attention to a certain person.” She looked at Miguel.

Jayden laughed and crossed his arms over his chest. His cock
throbbed at the idea of pleasuring Miguel. “I think that’s a pretty spectacular
idea.”

Miguel’s eyes widened a little and for a second Jayden
thought he saw a flash of panic. He was about to pull back because he didn’t
want to push the other man too hard too fast, but Miguel cocked his hip. “You
think you can take me?”

If possible Sydney’s smile grew even brighter. She strode up
to Miguel and grabbed his hand. “That I do.” She stretched her other hand out
to Jayden. He didn’t hesitate and let her tow him into the bedroom.

“First, you are wearing too many clothes.” With those words
she unzipped Miguel’s jacket and tugged it off. Then she grabbed the bottom of
his shirt and dragged it up and over his head.

Fuck, he was just gorgeous. Every inch of his torso was
sleek and muscular. The marks on his body showed that he had been a warrior for
centuries. They had to have been grievous wounds for a Vampire to scar. The
dusting of hair and the flat male nipples made Jayden’s fingers itch to touch.
He sought Miguel’s eyes and nearly combusted at the fire raging in them.

They held each other’s gazes for a moment before Miguel gave
him a very slight nod. Jayden felt like he’d won the galactic lottery and
marched up to the two of them and came to a standstill behind Miguel’s broad
shoulders.

Sydney smiled at them both.

Jayden returned her smile and rested his hands on Miguel’s
shoulders. Heat flashed through him. He leaned a little forward and kissed the
other man’s neck and shoulders. Miguel arched his back.

Jayden stroked his flat hands across the expanses of muscle
and strength and kissed his way down the neck. Sydney flattened her palms on
Miguel’s chest and teased him with strokes and kisses. Jayden rubbed down the
upper arms. He stepped close enough to press his chest against Miguel’s back
and caressed the other man’s rib cage, enjoyed the feel of his muscular
abdomen. With each touch Miguel’s breathing grew more and more uneven. Jayden
was pretty sure if he didn’t release his clenched jaw soon he’d grind his teeth
down to nubs.

He gripped Miguel’s waist and reached around until he found
the button of his trousers. With a flick he undid it and pulled down the
zipper.

Miguel growled and Jayden groaned as he rubbed his own hard
dick against Miguel.

Sydney teased and circled his nipples and Jayden freed
Miguel’s hard cock from the confining material. He couldn’t wait to sink to his
knees and enjoy the delicious treat, but right now he wanted something else.

He nipped Miguel’s shoulder, keeping his fangs contained as
he fondled the throbbing member.

Sydney sucked on one nipple at the same time as Jayden
caressed the head and smeared the drops of pre-come into the sensitive skin.

“Jade, if you’re ever looking for a career change you could
be superstars in adult films. Women would pay millions to see you like this.”
Sydney took a step back and lifted her hands, pretending to hold a camera.

To his surprise Miguel chuckled. The other man’s laughter
was short and harsh as if he hadn’t used it in a very long time, but it made
Jayden cheer inside. “I will keep that in mind, but I hope it is all right if
it doesn’t go to the top of my career choices.”

Sydney laughed.

Jayden rubbed his own throbbing cock against Miguel,
torturing himself as he pushed the other man closer and closer to the brink.

She took another couple of steps back and nearly brought him
to his knees when she opened her own trousers.

Miguel twisted his arm behind him and grabbed Jayden’s ass,
his nails digging deep enough into the material for him to feel them. Jayden bit
into base of Miguel’s neck and tightened his grip around Miguel, not taking his
eyes off the beauty before them.

She did that female thing where she wiggled her hips and the
trousers slid down. Sydney stepped out of them and sank into a chair across
from them. She spread her legs and stroked her hand down her chest and straight
into her panties.

All three of them groaned when she cupped herself.

“Have I given you permission to do this?” Miguel asked.

She panted. “No, but I want to even the playing field. I
brought off Jayden. He is bringing you off. You wouldn’t want me to be an
orgasm behind, would you?”

Jayden laughed as he dropped his chin onto Miguel’s shoulder
and increased the speed of his hand. “She has you there.”

“Stop what you’re doing.” Miguel’s demand echoed through the
room.

Sydney pouted, but she couldn’t resist his command.

Miguel leaned more heavily against Jayden and pushed into
his hand.

With his other hand Jayden tugged down Miguel’s trousers a
little more and cupped his balls.

Miguel groaned.

Jayden struggled to make up his mind on where to look.
Sydney was a picture he could barely tear his gaze from, even while she was no
longer pleasuring herself. But feeling Miguel’s nails digging into his ass and
watching as passion overtook him was equally exciting.

Miguel twisted his other arm, thrust it into Jayden’s hair
and pulled. “Get me off. I want to watch her.”

Jayden gritted his teeth and did exactly that. He gently
pressed his thumb against the balls and tightened his grip around Miguel’s cock
as he rubbed up and down fast and hard.

Miguel tightened his grip in Jayden’s hair and roared as he
came.

Jayden dug his teeth into the base of Miguel’s neck, wanting
to drink but barely keeping control. He hadn’t been invited nor did he want to
spoil the mood for Sydney. He released Miguel’s balls but continued to caress
the cock, which had only softened the slightest bit.

Miguel leaned against him and Jayden took his weight easily,
welcoming the opportunity to hold him. He curled one arm across his chest. For
a second he thought he saw a line connecting him to Miguel flashing in a deep
green, but it was gone too quickly for him to be sure.

“Pleasure yourself,” Miguel demanded.

Sydney circled her breast with her fingers and slowly
stroked one hand down her chest and stomach until it once again disappeared in
her underwear. She moaned, the slight sound of her fingers moving in her wet
pussy like a lightning strike.

Her eyes grew heavy lidded. The movement of her fingers
increased behind the thin fabric of her panties. Her gaze focused on them. Her
free hand cupped her breast and tweaked her nipple.

Sydney whimpered. Her head dropped back and her hand moved
at fever speed. She bit her lower lip. Her other hand moved restlessly from
breast to breast, pulling at her nipples with more and more force.

Miguel turned until he faced Jayden. “I think she may need
some visual stimulation.” He grabbed the back of Jayden’s head and pulled him close
for a deep, wet kiss.

Jayden fell into it, savoring Miguel’s taste and talented
tongue.

Sydney screamed.

Miguel brought their kiss to an end and smiled.

Jayden rested his forehead against Miguel’s. “Holy fuck,
this was just the opening. We may not survive the main course.”

Miguel pressed a quick kiss against Jayden’s lips, then
turned to Sydney and caught her before she slid off the chair. “But what a way
to go.”

Sydney barely knew what was up and what was down. Miguel had
saved her from inelegantly flopping to the ground. He swung her into his arms
and carried her to the bed. It wasn’t the first time that a man had carried
her, but somehow he made it different. Special. Romantic.

He set her back on her feet beside the bed and tugged down
her underwear. Jayden arrived at her other side and tugged her shirt over her
head.

She pulled Miguel close for a kiss. All her senses burst to
life again. His taste exploded through her and she grabbed a handful of chest
hair, wanting to sink beneath his skin, share it. The hair was silky and raspy.
She moved her chest back and forth, savoring the feel of it over her tightening
nipples.

Jayden stepped behind her and nudged her legs apart. She
moaned when he cupped her and teased her wet opening. She shrieked against
Miguel’s lips when Jayden thrust two strong fingers inside her.

Sydney ended the kiss and dropped her forehead against Miguel’s
chest, panting. Jayden’s fingers were thick and long. Slight callouses rasped
against her inner walls. She dug her nails into Miguel’s chest and hung on.

Miguel stroked his hand up from her stomach until he curved
it under her breast. She hissed. Her skin was so sensitive she didn’t know if
she could withstand the pleasure. He teased her areola and circled her hard
nipple with his thumb.

Jayden sped up the movement of his hand, his thumb caressing
the skin surrounding her engorged clit. He bit her neck. For a second she
worried he would go against her wishes, but he kept his fangs contained. After
the sharp bite he nibbled on her earlobe. “This is going to be hard and fast.”

She balled her hand into a fist. “How is that different from
any other time?”

Both men stilled.

She whimpered.

Jayden moved his hand again and Miguel lifted his other hand
to her breasts as well. He tormented both nipples with firm rubs and sharp
tweaks.

Power built in her core, built until it threatened to
overwhelm her. Pleasure, pain, ecstasy all merged together into one massive
ball of fire big enough to consume her. She could barely stand it.

Jayden continued to plunge his two fingers inside her. As he
withdrew the tips stroked across that almost too sensitive spot. When he finally
flicked his thumb against her clit she broke with a hoarse scream.

Miguel caught her against his chest as Jayden slowly brought
her back to the here and now.

She was sweaty and sticky and breathless, but Sydney could
not think of anywhere she’d rather be, no matter the danger that hung over
her—over
them
like a sword. “One of you better get me some water.”

Jayden laughed and kissed the back of her neck. He lifted
his fingers and offered them to Miguel. His hand passed close enough by her she
scented her essence.

Miguel accepted the offer and sucked Jayden’s fingers into
his mouth.

Sydney swallowed. Every time she saw her men coming together
her heart stopped for a moment. The picture they made, the coming together into
something new, would stay with her for the rest of her life. Hopefully a few
more centuries, but if she died tomorrow she’d at least have this.

Miguel released Jayden’s fingers. The men kissed, pressing
against her from both sides. She didn’t feel left out when she watched them.
Firstly she was far too hot to even consider that, but secondly they always
included her. A touch, a caress, a light pinch to her butt, they never left her
just standing.

Jayden pulled back, grasped her chin and pressed a quick
kiss against her swollen lips. “We could all use something to drink.”

“Can Vampires eat and drink like Naemas or Humans?” she
asked as Miguel helped her climb onto the bed.

“We can, it just has no nourishment for us.” Miguel followed
her and took one of the glasses of water Jayden brought over. Jayden handed her
a glass, which she quickly drained. The other Vampire took the now familiar
position on her other side. “But we can get dehydrated, same as you, so water
is always a good idea when we are physically active.”

Sydney met Jayden’s gaze. They both burst into laughter.

Miguel frowned.

She petted his thigh. “I don’t think I’ve ever heard it
described quite like that.” She could breathe more easily again and had even a
few brain cells to rub together. An idea—more like a craving, had made itself at
home in the back of her mind. It went against everything she had been taught
since old enough to work on controlling and harnessing her power.

Miguel set his glass down and took her hand. “What is it?”
He raised it to his lips and pressed a soft kiss in the center of her palm.
