Heart of a Cowboy (12 page)

Lucas undressed him slowly, tossing his wet clothes to the side. The shower pelted him with warm water, massaging his back. Lucas kissed his way down Derek’s body and covered his dick with his mouth, sucking him off, and Derek came quickly. Lucas swallowed.

There was nothing hotter than having a man wrap his lips around your cock and suck until you came. Except maybe having two men pleasure you simultaneously. He didn’t want Ishwar to feel left out, especially if he could feel it every time they made love.

“Ishwar, I need you,” Derek called to his friend and lover.

Lucas growled, “You ask too much, Chayak.”

“I love him too,” Lucas said. “You can’t ask me to just let him go.”

“It’s all right.” Ishwar strode toward him, entering the water without a thought of his clothes. “This is about you and Lucas now. There will be times when we all will be together, but now is the time for you two. Not me.”

Derek kissed him quickly, but Lucas pulled him back into his arms.

Lucas eased him down to the tile floor and helped him to all fours. Lucas entered him from behind, pushing into his tight ass. Derek was amazed he took Lucas inside so easily. It was like he was made for the other man. Just being in his presence fueled his voracious appetite for sex. He could do this all night long and still feel like he had done nothing to quench his desire.

“Fuck me hard!”

“You like it that way, don’t you.” Lucas glided in and out of him.

“Fuck. Me.” It felt so good.

He knew he would have Ishwar in many ways before the night was through, but he could still help ease his painful erection pushing against his wet jeans. His mouth watered, longing to be filled.

“Ishwar, I can take you in my mouth.”

Ishwar bent to kiss him. “Your offer is sweet, but I can wait my turn.”

“You need some relief—let me help you. I want to taste you.”

“If you insist.” Ishwar unbuckled his pants and slid them over his boots. His boxers quickly followed. Ishwar knelt in front of him and placed his hands on Derek’s shoulders to steady himself. His long cock found Derek’s mouth with deadly accuracy. His fat cock filled Derek’s mouth and Derek sucked in the same tempo as he was being fucked.

His tight ass filled with cum and his mouth not long after.

Lucas turned off the water and they dried each other off. Each of them wrapped a towel around their waist before walking to Ishwar’s room to finish their lovemaking session.

Derek came four more times that night, until he didn’t feel he had any more seed to give. He was happy just being held by the men he loved. Lucas stroked his hair, twirling it between two fingers.

“I will arrange for your things to be moved to my home tomorrow.”

“I can’t just move. I have a job.” Derek couldn’t believe what he was hearing.

“I will arrange everything. You can continue to work from my home, but there really is no need to work at all. You will not lack for money.”

“It’s not just that. What about Ishwar?”

“He can come too.”

“I owe Jesse money for my bail and I still have to go to court. What if I go to jail?”

“I’ll wait for you.”

“Me too.” Ishwar said.

“I can repay your debt for you if you like.”

“I feel like I should be paying my own debt, which is why I’m working.”

“Chayak, it’s my job to take care of you. Protect you. Let me do my job.”

That line he added to the end made Derek suddenly remember the blood covering Lucas earlier tonight. “Is that why you were all bloody? Protecting me?”

“Yes,” Ishwar answered.

“No, not entirely. That was another part of my job. I have to keep my people in line, and Bo was not living by our laws.”

“What did you do to Bo?”

“He was warned.” Lucas’s brow knitted with frustration.

“He had to kill him, Derek. Bo was the one who tried to kill you. In the condition he left you in, I am not sure how you were able to survive, and if it wasn’t for Lucas, you wouldn’t be here.”

A hazy memory of pain and blood visited him. He remembered fangs and fur, biting through flesh. A wolf that attacked and a wolf that protected and then there was the man. The naked man standing over him who transformed back to a wolf. “I thought it was all a dream.”

“It was no dream,” Ishwar responded.

“I will always protect my life mate and my clan. You are my family now.” Lucas cradled Derek head in his hand.

“But couldn’t you have handed him over to the police? I didn’t like him, but killing seems to be a pretty harsh punishment.”

“He lived by my laws as one of the Wendigo. When he chose to ignore the warnings, he chose the consequences.”

“Tribal laws are separate from the rest of the world, and the Wendigo are the same way. If one of their people exposes them to the world, the punishment is death, Derek. If Lucas had not carried out the act, another man would have had to step up and take his place. It’s tradition.”

“Ishwar is right, but I’m not just any Wendigo, I’m the alpha. That means I have certain responsibilities to my pack.” Lucas’s long lashes covered his blue eyes.

“Just like I have certain responsibilities to my tribe,” Ishwar interrupted. “They will have to know what happened tonight, Lucas.”

“I don’t even know what to say. This seems like a lot to take in right now.” Derek confessed.

“Say you’ll let me love you. Tell me you will become part of my family. My forever family.”

It truly felt like home and now he knew what it felt like to be loved.

“I want to say yes.” Derek admitted.

“Then just say yes, Derek. I want you to be by my side for the rest of my life.”

“You will be coming too, Ishwar?”

“Yeah. I wouldn’t dream of being anywhere else.”

“Then yes!” Derek laughed and rolled excitedly into Lucas’s arms. “Yes! Yes! I love you both too much to say anything else.”

The men made love two more times that night before collapsing in a pile of naked flesh. After such vigorous lovemaking, Derek’s muscles lacked the energy to do anything more than rest. His body relaxed on the bed to recover. Lucas threw an arm over his chest, and Derek used Ishwar’s arm as a pillow. Held by his lovers, he relaxed enough for a languorous stretch and gave into his urges to fall into a deep but happy sleep.

Being loved and having a family made him feel whole.
