Grinding Frost: A Reverse Harem Dragon Fantasy (Starcrossed Dragons Book 2) Page 2

  Did he like what he saw? I didn’t have full hips like many of my fellow dragonesses. My chest had always been smaller than most, along with my height. Men were rumored to love women of all kinds, but for some reason, Jack’s attention to me often left me wondering how true that was.

  He didn’t say anything as his gaze swept across my skin. Heat filled my stomach even as my arms moved to cover myself. Jack’s shot out to stop them, pressing them into the mattress.

  “Don't,” he growled, and all my uncertainty went away. That one word had so much need in it, I felt it all the way down to my core.

  Breathing heavily, Jack released my hands and opened my thighs, exposing my slickened folds to his eyes.

  This was it. We'd finally come together. I feared and craved it at the same time, my body a mixture of nerves and desire. I shut my eyes, waiting for him to enter me, but when he touched me next, it wasn't what I thought. His tongue slid across my most sensitive bits.

  “Jack,” I gasped, my hands reaching out to grab him as my eyes opened.

  The ice dragon gave me a knowing smirk before delving back between my thighs. He didn't take his time, not like he did with everything else. Jack lapped and sucked at a feverish pace, shooting me higher and higher.

  Breath coming out in pants, I reached down, entwining my fingers in his long hair. If he wanted to take me now, I'd be more than happy to comply, but Jack didn't seem to have any plans for completing what he started. As I screamed out my ecstasy and started to come back down, he moved beside me and laid on his side, his fingers stroking my skin.

  “I love that I can cause you to make such sounds,” he murmured his voice low and husky. “You're so needy. Wanton for my touch.”

  His words made my face heat before causing a defiant part of me to rear up. “You aren't the only one who can cause such sounds.” Jack's brows furrowed as I moved between his thighs.

  Giving him a little shove, I pulled his pants the rest of the way down his legs before staring at the beast beneath my hands.

  Thick and long, it would be difficult getting him completely inside any part of me. Still, I was never one to back away from a challenge.

  Jack grunted, his head thrown back as I slid my mouth over the end of him. The salty taste of him hit my tongue as I swallowed the tip of him. He jerked on the bed in response, urging me to take him further into my mouth.

  I couldn't help but smile at his reaction. While the taste of him on my tongue made my own desire for him grow, it was nothing compared to hearing him cry out and beg me for release. Torturing him was definitely going to be my new favorite pastime given how he’d done nothing but drive me wild with lust for the last few weeks.

  One would think if he was going to go through all the trouble of taking me on a romantic date on Earth, he’d want something out of it. He’d let me drag him all over the city and even sat through a sappy romance movie. He’d logged more brownie points than any of the others, and I would have been happy to let him cash those in by the end of the evening. Hell, even before the movie was over.

  But not Jack.

  He’d been a perfect gentleman the entire time. Frustratingly so. Hell, when we climbed into the limo on the way home I launched myself at him. But even that had ended without sex. There was some deep kissing and heavy petting, but Jack shut it down before it could go any further.

  I respected that he didn’t want our first time to be decided by a lie to my father even though most men would have been happy to have an excuse to get me on my back. It made me want him even more, but there was only so much a woman could take. I was ready to explode!

  A loud moan hit my ear, and my eyes shot up to Jack’s face. He was close now. I’d ached to have him like this for weeks now. Sure, we’d almost gotten to this point several times but never so close as now. I hoped this time we could go all the way and I could finally know Jack completely.

  It didn’t hurt that it would fix one of my lies. Who knew pretending to be pregnant was so hard? My mother fluttered around me like a worried hen, and my father boasted at every turn how he’d finally have a strong male heir to carry on our line. I didn’t bother to mention that my child could very well be a girl. Instead, I focused on trying to get pregnant with the three supportive dragons who stood by me through all my dishonesty and craziness. Well two, anyway.

  Irritation filled me, and this time, instead of helping Jack along to his release, I slowed down. I stroked him languidly, my hand reaching beneath to caress the sensitive sack beneath his length. Jack’s eyes snapped open, and he stared down at me. I’d hoped getting him naked and excited would be enough to make him take the final step, but now I just wanted to torture him the way he had done me.

  “Maya,” Jack’s voice came out raspy as his fingers tangled in my hair. He tried to move me faster, but I shook my head, releasing myself from his hold. “Please.”

  I almost relented at his pleading, but the pulsating ache between my thighs reminded me not to give in. I slid my mouth up and down him, moving at a glacial pace as I made the strong, stoic man before me toss and turn on the bed.

  Still, my own desire was getting the best of me, keeping me from savoring each moment of our time together. I moved faster, making Jack cry out and causing my pride to swell. He grew and pulsated in my mouth, and while my own jaw ached from his girth, I knew he was almost there. Just a bit more.

  As I prepared myself for Jack’s release, someone pounded on the door. I froze in place, my eyes locking with Jack’s as we both kept quiet. Maybe they would leave if we didn’t answer.

  “Hey, I was wondering if-” As the door swung open, Raiden’s words died in his throat, his brown eyes quickly taking in the sight of me with my mouth still around Jack.

  What a sight we must look. Jack spread out on my bed his chiseled chest bare and his pants still hanging off his feet. I sat between his thighs with my naked backside pointed toward the door. Raiden’s eyes zeroed in on my nude form, and his tongue slid across his bottom lip.

  I shifted in place, my desire easily seen decorating my inner thighs. My movement caused Raiden’s nostrils to flare as he inhaled deeply. His eyes closed briefly before they opened once more, locking with mine, his face hardening into one I’d come to know so well.

  “It seems I’m interrupting,” he growled, a sound that resonated straight to my core. Part of me thought he would turn around and leave, embarrassed to have caught us in such a position, but I should have known better.

  Raiden’s demeanor changed, his usually relaxed shoulders stiffened, and his eyes narrowed as he shut the door and stalked toward us. A shiver rushed through me at his heated gaze. There was just something about his ability to switch from the life of the party to dominating alpha male in an instant that made me quiver.

  “Please don’t let me stop you,” he said, stopping at the end of the bed. “Continue.”

  Raiden’s words shouldn’t have surprised me. He had made it clear he didn’t mind sharing me any in any aspect, but still I hesitated. My gaze went to Jack whom I worried wouldn’t be so nonchalant about it. Did it bother him? We hadn’t exactly talked about us doing things with all of us. Only that they would share me. I didn’t expect any of them to touch one another, whether they swung that way or not.

  But I shouldn’t have worried. Jack’s eyes usually cold as steel, liquefied with lust and seemed eager for me to take him back in my mouth even more so since Raiden watched us. A strange feeling filled me at the thought. Part of me found it taboo but at the same time excited for it to happen.

  Still a bit unsure about having an audience, I slowly turned my back to Raiden. Nerves standing on end, my body a hundred percent aware of the lightning dragon’s eyes on me. When I leaned back over and engulfed Jack’s length once more, I could feel the Raiden’s hot gaze between my thighs.

  My body rigid with tension, I found it hard to find my rhythm with Jack once more. After a few moments of jerky movements, a hand placed on top of my head. I
froze, my eyes shooting to Jack who only watched on with desire filled eyes, his hands firmly by his side. So, the hand on my head had to be Raiden’s.

  A second hand stroked my spine, and a cooing noise came from Raiden, urging me to relax. Easy for him to say. I’d never been with more than one man at a time. While I’d been happy to daydream about it even so far as to imagine all three of them taking me at once, being faced with it for real was an entirely different story.

  With some effort, I let out a breath and tried to keep from freaking out. It was fine. It couldn’t be that different than being with only one of them, right? There were just more bodies to touch, more skin to pleasure, and more holes to take up. I swallowed deeply at the thought, forgetting for a moment that Jack was in my mouth until he groaned.

  Raiden’s hand on my head pressed down slightly, urging me to move. His other hand caressed my back as he guided me up and down Jack’s length. I swallowed and locked my eyes with Jack, using him as a focal point as Raiden guided me. The hand on my back snaked lower, dipping between my cheeks and gliding against my folds. I jerked and sucked on Jack harder, pulling a sound from him as Raiden’s long fingers found my core, pressing into me, stretching me until I felt a satisfying fullness.

  His fingers moved inside me slowly before Raiden shifted his touch, pulling a muffled cry from me as he rubbed me in a new spot. I stopped moving over Jack, arching up in pleasure, only as I did, his fingers stopped as well. Worse, he didn’t resume his ministrations until I returned my attention to Jack. I found it hard to concentrate on the task at hand with Raiden’s fingers buried inside of me. Every time I stopped moving because the pleasure became too much, Raiden stopped as well, leaving me just on that edge and bursting to be taken.

  When the lightning dragon’s hand slid from my folds and moved up to settle on my hips, I tensed. I released Jack from my mouth and turned, but Raiden only shushed me, his fingers soothingly caressing my skin, turning me back. I let out a breath through my nose and moved my tongue along the bottom of Jack’s length. I focused on the taste of his skin and sweat as Raiden shuffled behind me. The hard tip of him pressed against my heat and when he slid into me, I almost choked on Jack.

  I breathed deeply through my nose as Raiden waited. Meeting Jack's gaze, I swallowed the taste of him on my tongue as I began to move again. An overwhelming feeling of fullness came over me, and I realized there was nothing to fear. They wanted me any way they could have me.

  Raiden pulled out as I reached the tip of Jack. When I moved my mouth down his length, Raiden moved with me, hitting deep inside. The feeling of them both inside me one at once was exhilarating. My dragoness cooed within me, loving nothing more than having two strong men at her pleasure. She urged me to move faster, telling me to take what we wanted.

  Increasing my pace, I took Jack deep into my mouth, stretching my mouth as far as it would go. My hand moved along the part of Jack I couldn't fit, my saliva dribbled out of my mouth, making movement easier. Raiden and Jack groaned together as Raiden pounded into me.

  My jaw ached from keeping it open, but my need was too great to stop. Raiden’s grip on my hips tightened as I increased my speed further, bobbing up and down on Jack's length. The ice dragon reached his release first. Jack filled my mouth, and I tried to swallow, but at that moment, Raiden hit just the right spot, making me scream.

  My fingers dug into Jack's thighs as I tried to grab hold of the pressure exploding through me. I closed my eyes, my mind focused on what I felt while Jack's voice called out.

  “Open your eyes.” My eyes snapped open and locked with his pale orbs. Satisfied and spent, he watched my face as Raiden took me from behind. As I screamed my release until my throat hurt, it was Jack's face burned into my retina.

  Raiden and I collapsed on the bed a moment later, his slick front against my back. Our breathing heavy, we laid there for a few moments, basking in what just happened. My dragoness curled up inside of me sated and content.

  “You don't seem tired to me.”

  All three of us jerked, our gaze going to the voice. My sister, Aeis, stood at the door completely unembarrassed by the sight of me with two men.

  Raiden moved off me, pulling his pants up as he handed me Jack's discarded shirt, which I pulled over my head. Jack sat up and grabbed his pants still at his ankles, his eyes downcast. Out of the three of my suitors, Jack seemed the most skittish about sex and public displays of affection, so I wasn't surprised by his embarrassment.

  Raiden on the other hand just went with the flow. Proud of his looks and not ashamed to flaunt them, he gave my sister a pleased grin before looking to Jack. “Let's go see if the cook has anything left over from lunch. I'm suddenly starving.” He winked at me before nodding to my sister as he passed by.

  Jack stopped at my side, he brushed his knuckles against the side of my face. I smiled up at him and inclined my head slightly.

  When my sister and I were alone, my smile fell. “What do you want, Aeis?” I turned from her and walked into the bathroom, not caring if she followed or not. I found a washcloth and wetted it in the sink.

  “I want to know what the hell is going on,” my sister snapped from the bathroom door. She crossed her arms over her chest and leaned against the frame as I lifted my leg to wash beneath Jack's shirt.

  “I don't know what you are talking about,” I muttered, not meeting her eyes.

  “Bullshit.”

  My head jerked up at her curse. My sister rarely uttered a dirty word. She thought it would make her seem less ladylike. I’d never had that problem.

  Dropping my leg down, I tossed the washcloth into the sink. “Is that what you think?”

  Aeis came into the bathroom and stopped inches from me. “I think you need to learn to lie better.”

  I swallowed but didn't drop my gaze. Until she flat out said it, I wouldn't admit to anything. I might not like to lie, but the fewer people who knew the truth, the better.

  “How long do you think you can keep this up?” Aeis asked when I didn't answer. “Eventually they will expect you to start showing, and you won't be fooling anyone in those clothes.” She picked at Jack's shirt with interest. “You should start wearing looser clothing. It will hide it longer.”

  After giving her advice, she stepped back. Aeis glanced at me for another moment before going to the door. She paused there and said, “You're lucky, you know.”

  “How so?” I cocked my head to the side.

  Instead of answering, she said, “I understand why you did what you did. Why you still do even, but those men care for you. Don't let your anger against father destroy what you have with them. Some of us aren't so lucky.”

  I waited to see if she had anything else to say but she only sighed and fluffed her skirts. “Get cleaned up. Dinner will be ready soon.”

  I stepped into the shower, letting the hot water fall over my body like a calming balm to my frazzled nerves. My hair plastered to my face and shoulders, the brown color turning almost black as it wet. I’d let it grow out after I’d been banished. No reason to keep it short. No fights to fight. At least not any real ones. Which made it hard to distract myself from my fate.

  I had to give it to the humans. They did know how to distract themselves from the world around them. So, absorbed, they wouldn’t notice the house burning down around them until the roof landed on their head.

  Unfortunately, I didn’t have that pleasure. Even working on the Waesigar video game with Ryan I had a hard time losing myself in the game world. It was all too real. Too much of a reminder of what I’d lost.

  That wasn’t the case now. Instead, as I looked around the real world of Waesigar, the one I used to cry for at night while I lay in my human apartment, I felt conflicted.

  My head still told me to run back to Earth. To find a portal and run as fast and as far as I could until I was lost in the human world. There were enough humans there that I could go to any part of the world, and my father wouldn’t be able to find m
e.

  Yet...

  And yet, my heart wouldn’t let me.

  I had come back to Waesigar on my father’s request. I’d met his suitors and gone on his quest all the while plotting how to get out of it all. But along the way, something had happened. The suitors I had only meant to pretend to get along with, somehow wiggled their way inside of me. Now, their claws hooked so far into me, the very thought of running from them made my heart ache.

  Nevertheless, my feelings wouldn’t mean crap, if my father found out I lied. My sister knew. No doubt, my mother knew as well. It would only be a matter of time before my father figured it out.

  I placed my hand on my flat stomach. My sister was right. They would be expecting me to start showing soon. I had few choices to hide what I’d done. Wearing looser clothing was a solution but only a temporary one. I had to get pregnant, but dragons had a notoriously hard time getting pregnant, it might still take years.

  The best option would be to leave.

  My stomach jumped at the thought. West Waesigar was not my home anymore. Not while my father reigned. He would continue to berate me for laying with all three of them even though he had been the one to suggest it in the first place. Worse, Firestar had been mocked nearly every time he was in the same room with my father, and I knew his patience was dwindling.

  As I rinsed the soap from my hair, the shower door burst open. Cool air hit my naked body, and I shifted into a defensive stance. One foot back and my fists up in front of me. I readied myself to strike out, but then a head of fiery red hair came into view. I rarely had alone time and seeing Firestar caused irritation to prick at me, but the other part relieved it was someone I knew.

  “Firestar,” I breathed, relaxing my stance. His large frame filled the shower door, his muscles covered with brown sludge. Wrinkling my nose, I laughed, “What happened to you?”
