Broken (15 page)

“Yes, please,” he whimpered.

So that was what I did, and we
both
enjoyed every second of it. When he was spent, but certainly not done from the way his dick still stood proud, I moved up next to him and removed my pajama bottoms. Then I slid my leg over him and let him feel how ready I was.

“Wow, Cara,” he panted, wrapping his arm around me and half dragging me onto him. “You’re welcome.”

“I have to ask just for my own piece of mind so I’m not that selfish person who takes without thinking,” I hedged, running my fingers over his chest, waiting until he nodded to continue. “It didn’t hurt you to do that for me, right? I mean, I know we’re going to talk more about your powers later, but it’s not like a battery I just drained or anything?”

He turned his head and glanced at me and I could see his thoughts racing a bit. “That was nothing, but in general, yes, magic is like any other energy source that needs recharging. It’s why we eat so much. You’ve eaten around other human men, and you have to have noticed we put more food away.”

“You guys are more active too,” I chuckled, having noticed that. I’d always chalked it up to not having eaten with three grown men on such a regular basis. “Well if you’re willing to help me, I’ll just have to make more food and make sure you get your favorites.”

“I would have just to make you happy,” he whispered, leaning in to kiss me. Our bodies melded together on our sides as we made out and then I pulled him on top of me between my legs. “Cara, I was trying to say I’d never been with a
woman
before, human or elf.”

My eyes went wide. “You said you were bi-sexual, Teak.”

“I like women, just haven’t been with one,” he muttered, dropping his head to my shoulder. “The women of court couldn’t be trusted. They wanted me for the wrong reasons. To trap me even, and then I couldn’t ever be with Aspen and Cypress again.”

“Trap you?” I asked and then it hit me. “A baby. They would want you to get them pregnant so they could be Princess or whatever.”

He nodded, lifting his head. “Not
all
of the ones who were interested I’m sure, but I couldn’t take that chance. With Aspen and Cypress in my life, I had to be
so
careful.”

“Fuck, Teak,” I breathed, running my hand down his cheek. “What you’ve been through just to survive the landmines of life. That’s all over now, okay? All I need to know is if you want to be with me now or if I’m going too fast. We can wait. I mean, it’s your first time—”

“I want you!”
he shouted as he moved his cock into position. “Not too fast, I
swear
.”

I couldn’t help it. I threw back my head and laughed at his response. When I got myself under control, I met his hand between my legs and pushed him inside me, both of us moaning.

“Oh
fuck
, you’re like wet heaven,” Teak groaned as he wrapped my leg over his hip. Then he interlocked his fingers with my hand, moving it above my head as his other hand helped lift my lower back off the bed. “God, Cara. Just,
god
. I like it when they take me, but I don’t like to top. Apparently it’s because I prefer being inside you.”

“Me too,” I moaned, arching my back. Then I cried out when he lowered his mouth to my breast and bit my nipple ever so slightly, loving the clashing sensations of pain and pleasure. Teak got the idea and picked up the pace as his mouth worked its way back up to mine. I raked my nails down his back with my free hand, and he went wild, pounding into me faster than I’d ever thought possible. I screamed his name as I came over and over again because he just kept
going
, drawing out my orgasm for what seemed like forever.

“Cara, gonna—” he warned before he let out a wordless bellow that reverberated throughout my body. I felt the force of his release deep inside me like nothing I ever had before and in a way I couldn’t explain.

When it was finally over, he slumped against me, both of us sinking into the bed together, gasping for air.

“Do you love them too?” Teak asked after a few moments, still inside me and us tangled together. I flinched, and he used his body weight to keep me where I was. “I’m sorry, don’t be mad. But you know how much I love them.”

“I’m not mad, but you could have waited a few more minutes before bringing this up, Teak,” I complained.

“I know. All I kept thinking was
this was so perfect and magical. Please, I don’t want to have to choose between this with her and them. I couldn’t live through that decision
.”

That was fair. I’d known they were a group package as he’d once put it. “I love all of you twits. I haven’t forgiven all of you, but I do
love
all of you.”

“
Can
you forgive us all?”

“I don’t know.”

“None of what we did was ever mean or selfish. We screwed up, but I
swear
it was always about you,
for
you. We thought like elves, and we needed to think like humans. Give us a chance to fix this and show you how we feel, be what you need. They love you just as much as I do. Let them love you.”

“Okay, I’ll try,” I sighed, not having anything else I could agree to than that.

“Thank you.” He kissed my neck before slow pushing himself up and smiling down at me. “And I have something to say that might be
horrible
after-sex conversation but I’m
dying
to say it.”

“You mean something
else
besides bringing up other men and forgiving them?” I drawled, raising an eyebrow. He winced but I waved for him to go ahead.

“I want to learn how to eat out your pussy,” he blurted with a wide grin. “I’ve always dreamed about breasts and pussy, and your breasts were
soooo
much better than I ever thought they could be that now I’m
dying
to eat you out. So you have to teach me. I love sucking cock and I like oral. I want to learn how to please you too, especially after you went down on me. I just want to bury my face down there and feast for hours!”

I about swallowed my tongue, not sure what else to do, so I nodded. “Sure, Teak. I’ll teach you how to do that.”

“I hear Cypress is really good. He can help me too,” Teak suggested as he gently pulled out of me.

Now I was horny again. For the love of…
Wow!

“There’s an interesting idea,” I purred, glancing at the closed door. Not that I was going to go out there and suggest we got right on that, but I did realize I had to handle the fact they’d waited out there and there was
no
way they hadn’t heard what we’d been up to.

I winced when I thought about if the tables had been turned around. As we rolled out of bed, I came up with a plan. And it wasn’t an evil plan.

I thought it was a good plan actually.

Teak and I quickly cleaned up in the bathroom and while he redressed in the same clothes, I found I didn’t have much that worked in the way of sexy with all the dramatic weight loss besides an oversized short, silky robe. So I wore that tied around my waist.

And only that.

Then I walked out of my bedroom, Cypress and Aspen both leaning against the wall by the kitchen with frowns on their faces. I headed right for them before either of them could say anything.

I stood on my toes and threw my arms around Cypress’s neck, kissing him deeply. It didn’t take a genius to tell he was shocked, because he didn’t respond at first, but then he did but didn’t even put his hands on me before I broke the kiss.

After that, I did the same to Aspen. He was
slightly
more prepared, but again, I pulled away too soon for much to really happen.

“Right, now we are all secret lovers, and there will be no more lovers for the Prince or
any
of us, agreed?” I asked, looking at each of them in turn.

“Does that mean you forgive us?” Cypress hedged, glancing at Teak who was staring at me with his jaw hanging open.

“I’ve been told that none of you were acting mean or with selfish intent and were simply thinking as elves instead of how your actions would pan out in the human world. Further, I was persuaded to give you a chance to fix things and show me how you feel, be who you are, be what I
need
, and to let you love me.”

“Oh,
that’s
what was going on in there,” Aspen snickered with a smirk on his face.

“Shut it. You’re just jealous you missed Teak screwing my brains out,” I snapped, giving him the evil eye.

“Yes,” he and Cypress agreed together. But Cypress continued. “And
both
of them have had alone time with you today and I seem to be the only one left out and somehow my crimes are the worst of the three of us.”

“Yours were,” I rasped, finally admitting it as I stepped away, not even able to look at him.

“What?
Why?
” I shook my head and crossed my arms over my chest.

“Then I don’t want this deal!” he roared. I flinched when I heard something hitting the wall. “How can you forgive them, touch
them
, and you can’t even
look
at me when I ask what I did that was so much worse?”

“Then
go
!” I cried, tears running down my cheeks. I gasped as someone grabbed me, my eyes snapping up to Cypress’s.

“No, I will have my answer first. You owe me at least that, Cara.”

I shoved him, harder than I’d ever shoved anyone in my life and his eyes went wide as he stumbled away from me. “
Because it was you!
You
were the one who knocked me out every night! You were the one I could talk to best and open up with in a way I’d never had before in my life. I could have told you
anything
, Cypress. I
did
tell you everything. And every night you betrayed me by knocking me out. If you truly felt there was nothing wrong with what you were doing, then you shouldn’t have had to make me sleep!

“It’s one thing to do it during the day with simple touches. But you basically
drugged
me. I felt you. Saw you in my dreams.
You
were the one to do it.
You
were the one to make me think I was so fucking crazy. All the while making me love you first, maybe the most of anyone I’d ever loved, before I found out! And then I find out it was all your idea to handle things
this
way? So yeah, your crimes
were
worse.”

He blinked at me a moment before bobbing his head. “Thank you for answering, but no, I don’t agree to your terms then.”

“What?” Aspen snarled as Teak gasped. “
Why?
She’s giving us a free pass to start over.”

“No, she’s giving
you
guys a free pass to start over,” Cypress chuckled darkly, scrubbing his hands over his head. “She won’t
ever
forgive me after listing all of that. She’s dropping it
all
at my goddamn feet and giving you guys fucking accomplice crimes.”

“No, I’m—” I started to say, but he snorted.

“I’m out of here. Do what you want. She’s the perfect author and I’m just the servant who you guys will blame for breaking her. You’ll pick her anyways.”

Aspen and Teak started arguing and getting physical with Cypress but I had a different reaction. I walked past them and to the front door. They all went quiet when I opened it, adjusting my robe and waiting for him to leave. He yanked his arm out of Aspen’s grasp and stepped around Teak before jogging down the stairs, his steps echoing in the silent house.

“Guess I was just the meaningless and easy pussy next door to acclimate you to the human world and not worth fighting for or anything to you after all,” I whispered as he went past me. He didn’t say anything, walking out the door, and with a flick of my wrist, I closed it.

I turned towards the stairs with a heavy heart when it came
flying
back open and I was grabbed from behind. Cypress spun me around, pressed me up against the wall, and pushed his knee between my thighs. “For someone so smart, you are a fucking
moron
, Cara.” He mashed his mouth down to mine, his hand moving under my ass and grinding our hips together as his other arm wrapped around my back. “I can’t get in any deeper and then lose you.”

“I came out of my room willing to try and forgive you,” I moaned as he attacked my neck. “That was what I was saying!”

“Then you listed all my crimes. I couldn’t be the reason we
all
lost you. I’d lose
them
too. I’d lose all of you and that would kill me.” He kicked my front door closed and then turned to his friends. “Leave us.” I heard what sounded like them walking away. “Cara, you have to forgive me.”

“I’m trying.”
