Ain started to answer. “She’s our Clan’s Seer—”
“Sort of like me, only without the firepower,” Lina quipped. “You’ll like her.”
“Lina,” Ain said, “while we appreciate the offer—”
She gave him a look that silenced him. “Dude, chances are that Fat Boy is keeping an eye on the house. If you three leave, Fat Boy will know something’s up and follow you. She goes with us, chances are no one’s going to realize she’s even gone until we’re safely on our way. It’s safer.”
Brodey nodded. “I have to admit, Ain, that’s a good idea.”
Ain felt the situation rapidly slipping out of his control. “But—”
Cail threw his opinion into the ring. “They’re right. If we leave, anyone watching the place will follow us.” He nodded toward Liam and Carla. “Let them go, too, with Lina and her guys. Elain can lie down in the car and hide until they’re out of town and know no one’s following them.”
Ain didn’t like it. “I don’t want Elain away from us for that long.”
Elain, surprisingly, held her temper in check. “Ain,” she gently said, “I think Jan, Rick, and Kael are more than capable of protecting me, along with Lina. They’re frickin’ dragons.”
“And Liam,” Carla piped up, favoring him with a smile. “We’ll go, too.”
Zack snorted. “Hey, what am I?”
“Eye candy,” Kael quipped without hesitation.
The entire table laughed, breaking the building tension and giving Ain a moment to think about it. He looked at Liam. “You understand my concern, correct? I hope the Clan will rule in our favor on this, but considering it’s a blood oath, they might not.”
He solemnly nodded. “I do. I realize it’s hard to place trust in me considering ye just met me. Believe me when I say I’d die to protect her. We’ll do our best not to reveal any more than necessary to the Clan.”
Elain looked at Ain. “Please?” she quietly asked. “It’s not that I want to be away from you guys, but…” She shrugged. “I would like some time with my mom and dad. And with Lina and them, too. It’s crazy around here. It’d be nice to get to know them better.”
“When we’re up there,” Lina added, “we’ll have Blackie and Callie with us, too. If you don’t think she’s safe with all of us, then she’ll never be safe with just you three.” She leveled her gaze at Ain. “Don’t worry. We will bring her back, safe and sound. I promise you that.”
With the gravity of the situation and suspecting Elain wasn’t grasping the full ramifications if the Abernathys challenged them for her, Ain hated admitting Elain made valid points. “Okay. When do you want to leave?” he asked Lina.
“I’d prefer late tonight or before dawn in the morning. That way it’s easier to see if anyone’s following us. We can put her in Carla’s car with her and Liam and have them drive between our two cars. You can’t get much safer than that.”
“You don’t want to fly?” Ain asked.
All of Lina’s men and Brodey groaned as her expression darkened. “No. Absolutely not. We’re driving.”
Ain guessed he didn’t want to challenge her on that point from both her tone of voice and the way her men and Brodey reacted. “Okay.”
Elain reached out and squeezed his hand, giving him a grateful smile. “Thank you. I know that was hard for you.”
He leaned in and kissed her. “Babe, you have no idea. And if you don’t get back here safe and sound, there’ll be hell to pay.”
They decided it would be best to take off in the morning. Elain packed before curling up in bed with Cail. Brodey and Ain were out in the living room discussing strategy with Liam and Lina’s men.
“I’m going to miss you, babe,” Cail said.
She snuggled close to his warm body. “I’ll miss you, too. All of you.”
“You realize Brodey will probably jump you the minute you walk in the door when you get home, right?”
She giggled. “Yeah. My sweet little horndog.” She hooked a leg around Cail’s. “I’m glad the three of you are different like that. I don’t think I could handle all three of you acting like Brodey all the time.”
He grinned. “Who says Ain and I won’t be horny as hell by the time you get back?”
She laughed. “I know you will. You know what I mean.”
He rolled on top of her. “And I know a certain woman who will most likely be horny by the time she gets home, too.” He kissed her between her breasts, his lips lightly feathering down her flesh toward her navel.
“Yeah,” she whispered, need suddenly taking over.
She buried her fingers in his hair and tried to urge him to move faster, but he wouldn’t be rushed. He took his time kissing his way first to one breast, where his tongue made slow, wet circles around her nipple before sucking it into his mouth. He repeated it with her other breast before finally resuming his slow, southerly sojourn.
The stubble on his cheek felt pleasantly rough against her flesh as he kissed his way down between the juncture of her thighs. He met with no resistance when he pressed her thighs apart with his palms.
“Such a good girl,” he whispered before bending down to her pussy. His fingers brushed over her folds. “You’re already wet, baby.” His breath felt hot against her clit.
He pressed one, then two fingers inside her. Moaning, she rocked her hips in time with his movements. When his lips closed around her clit, she nearly came off the bed from how good it felt.
Cail quickly changed position, turning around and swinging a leg over her, settling on top of her with his hard cock dangling over her lips.
She needed no instructions or encouragement. Opening wide, she wrapped her lips around him, shivering when he moaned against her clit, the sensation running through her entire body. His musky scent filled her lungs as his balls brushed against her nose.
“That’s it, baby,” he whispered before his tongue swiped down her clit and back up again.
She lost herself in the feelings of his mouth on her clit, his cock in her mouth, the warm heat and weight of his body pressing her into the mattress. It barely registered in her mind when she felt the mattress dip first on one side, then the other. Hands reached between their bodies and found her breasts, strong fingers pulling at her nipples and sending scorching tendrils of pleasure to her clit and back again.
Unable to cry out, she moaned around Cail’s cock as the first orgasm hit her, shaking her to her core. She tried to say no more, but she couldn’t, and he relentlessly sucked on her swollen clit until a second release shot through her. Her back arched, but still held down by Cail’s weight she didn’t go anywhere. As a third finger joined the other two inside her, he found that magic spot inside her cunt and pressed, triggering yet another orgasm.
She screamed, his cock sliding deep into her throat as she eagerly swallowed it. Her nose was buried between his balls as she felt his cock harden before spurts of hot juices filled her mouth. Swallowing as fast as she could, she moaned as his balls tightened and one last load emptied into her throat.
Only then did he rise up on shaky arms and legs with a final, gentle kiss on her clit. Gasping for breath, she managed to look to either side and saw Brodey and Ain with nearly identical grins on their faces. The source of the hands, each still had a breast cupped in their palms.
“That,” Ain said, his voice low and pleasantly growly, “was gorgeous.” He pulled her up and to him and kissed her, roughly, possessively, his need glowing hot in his fiery gaze. He scooched back on the bed and buried his hands in her hair. With his legs spread he guided her down to where his rigid cock stood straight up, twitching in eager excitement.
