Taken (M/F/M red-hot menage shifter romance) Standalone (Shadow Creek Shifters Book 2) (6 page)

There was something up with him knowing about her condition when nobody outside of Shadow Creek knew. “Really? When?”

Dr. Evans rubbed his neck. “At the saloon.”

Katlyn’s eyes narrowed. “They haven’t been to the saloon recently.”

“I’m sorry if me knowing about your pregnancy bothers you, but you should get checked out if you’re feeling any kind of pain.”

Brendan and Chase obviously overheard what the doctor said as they walked through the door, when Brendan said, “Are you okay, Katlyn?” as both men raced to her side.

“I’m fine. I guess I just felt a little muscle pull when I got up is all.”

Brendan’s hand went to Katlyn’s stomach. “You should have Dr. Evans take a look.”

Katlyn stiffened. “A look at what, exactly?”

“Just to make sure everything is all right,” Chase said.

“I’m seeing Dr. Jenna McKinney, like I just told Dr. Evans.” When Brendan’s jaw tightened, she added, “I just feel more comfortable seeing a female doctor.”

“I know, but I’ve been meaning to speak to you about that. You see, Dr. Evans is specialized in treating shifters and I’d feel better knowing that he’s involved in your care.”

“That’s just fine, but I’m not a shifter, I’m a human,” Katlyn said. She stared at Dr. Evans, trying to determine if he was a shifter and, if so, what kind. “So what kind of shifter are you then, Doctor? Another mountain lion?”

“Who says I’m a shifter just because I chose to treat the shifters in the area?”

“I can’t imagine that shifters might trust humans like they would one of their own.”

“Perhaps it’s better if she sticks with her doctor, Brendan.”

Katlyn smiled. “I know you’re not my doctor, but can I ask you a question pertaining to being pregnant, since we’re all here now?”

“I’d be happy to answer.”

“Is it safe for a woman to be intimate when she’s pregnant?”

He cleared his throat as he grinned widely. “I see. Well, I’d say as long as the woman wasn’t having problems with her pregnancy that it’s quite safe. It’s important for a pregnant woman to feel desired and loved throughout her pregnancy, and intimacy is part of that.”

Katlyn smiled as she stared over at her mates. “Thank you, Doctor. That’s most helpful.”

“So you didn’t feel any pain, just a little pull when you got up, is that right?” Dr. Evan said.

“Exactly.”

“Well, it sounds just find then, but if you have any pain or spotting, be sure to have a checkup. Knowing Dr. McKinney they way I do, I’m sure you’re in great hands.”

Brendan glanced around. “Where’s Melody?”

“My receptionist took her next door to get her an ice cream cone,” Dr. Evans said.

“Did you find Melody’s mother?”

“Yes, and we’ll leave her right where she is. I don’t want Melody to see her mother in that kind of condition. I’ll send out Angus to bring her home later,” Brendan said.

“Where was she, exactly? The saloon?” Katlyn asked.

“Yes. Carrie really needs to keep better company,” Brendan said, paying the doctor for Melody’s office visit. “And remember she has a daughter that needs her.”

Dr. Evan was thanked and they left, gathering Melody who was chatting up a storm to the receptionist who she referred to as Mindy. Katlyn didn’t care for the way Mindy looked at her mates, but she kept her tongue since she didn’t want them to think that she was insecure. Of course, what woman wouldn’t want to throttle any woman sniffing too close to her mates? Katlyn might think differently if her mates weren’t so worried about making love to her, but now that the doctor reiterated what she had tried to explain to them earlier, she hoped that tonight would be much different.

Chapter Six

Katlyn headed back into their cabin when she came back from taking Melody home. She waited for Brendan and Chase to join her inside, but they were milling around outside with Angus. She overheard them saying something to the effect that he needed to make sure that Carrie came back to Shadow Creek alone. Katlyn wondered what Brendan had meant, but before she could ponder it further, Brendan and Chase waltzed inside.

“Who was Carrie really with in town? Seth, perhaps?”

Chase raised a brow. “Seth? Why would you think that?”

“It’s just that I couldn’t think of anyone else that Carrie shouldn’t be around in town.”

“Oh,” Brendan said with a hint of a smile. “Since when are you an expert about the goings on in the saloons of Creeksboro?”

“I’m not, but I have a right to know what’s going on, especially when it involves the mother of one of my students.”

“I hope you get the chance to meet Carrie and you’ll know exactly why I’m concerned about who she spends time with. Carrie’s really a wild one. I’m just not sure why she chooses to stay away from home for days at a time, but I’ll be speaking to her about it when she sobers up,” Brendan said.  

“Who was she with in town?”

“Nobody worth mentioning.”

“Was it Seth?”

“Why do you have such an interest in Seth, Katlyn?”

“I don’t. I’ve never seen the man before the night he brought Tessa home.”

“Which was most likely Raphael’s doing, but there are plenty of other men in town that a shifter shouldn’t be hanging around. So, no it wasn’t Seth,” Brendan said.

“Well, who is Seth really, then? I’d like to know.”

Brendan sat and pulled Katlyn between his thighs. “I’m not in a talking mood right now since the doctor reassured us that we can’t hurt you, but if you still insist on knowing about Seth, then let’s just say that we have a history, one I really don’t want to discuss. It’s been years now and it’s best to forget about it.”

“But not enough to be upset when he showed up here?”

“I overreacted. I just don’t want the man near my pregnant mate. Is that so hard to believe?”

Katlyn sighed in defeat since there seemed to be no way that she could get Brendan to budge in regards to Seth, but once Brendan began to tug open the buttons of Katlyn’s dress, she let it drop—for now. She closed her eyes and felt herself pulled down as Brendan’s mouth met hers, his tongue darting between her full lips. She was lost in the sensation of his sensual kiss as he first kissed her top lip, then sucking on her bottom with a sharp sucking noise. Her head spun and she tried to deepen the kiss, but Brendan merely chuckled. She wanted to taste him, kiss him deeper, feel that tongue all over her body. She was so lost in thought that it took a few moments before she felt her hips gripped firmly from behind. She snapped open her eyes, breaking the kiss to gaze longingly at her other mate, Chase, who was slowly tugging up her long skirt, his hand tickling the backs of her thighs. Katlyn almost swooned, but was held between her mates and she knew that neither of them would let her tumble to the floor.

“Kiss me, Katlyn,” Brendan demanded, the hunger deep in his eyes, commanding her attention despite how hot Chase was making her with those hands that kept moving, circling, and grabbing ahold of her ass. He squeezed her then, and Katlyn hungrily took Brendan’s lips with hers, moaning as she kissed him. She ached in need now as these two mountain lion shifters heated her up like no other man had before. She felt the warmth spread from her lips, settling between her thighs as she felt herself grow wet, very wet.

Katlyn was again jolted when Brendan had all of the buttons open on her dress and nuzzled her cleavage that swelled above her bra. Chase now had her dress over her hips and, since she was facing Brendan, she was bent slightly over. With her ass in Chase’s capable hands, he kneaded her into oblivion, his finger working its way beneath her panties, moving ever so slowly toward her core. But instead of touching her where she wanted it most, Brendan straightened her, lifting her dress up and off. Her bra was next to leave her as it tumbled to the floor in a heap with her dress.

Chase’s whole hand was beneath her panties as he worked her until she was mad with desire. She loved how soft his touch was and how he knew just how to drive her wild. He seemed to love her ass the most with all of the time he spent touching it, whereas Brendan chose to play with her breasts, taking each of them in his hands. He pulled her toward him as he took a nipple hungrily into his hot mouth, then moved on to the next, as Katlyn looked at him lovingly, cradling the back of his head. Enjoying the sensations he created, she moved forward slightly, wanting to feel more of his tongue that was driving her wild with desire. He sucked hard, then softened the blow with his tongue, obviously enjoying how her nipples hardened with the smile that curved on his face, just like a cat who was licking his cream. And how she wanted him, too, but her stiff peaks weren’t the only place she wanted to feel his tongue.

Brendan dropped a hand and now worked it under her panties, rubbing her mound until she threw back her head in ecstasy. She pushed her hips forward, trying to nudge his hand nearer to her engorged clit that begged to be stroked. So now both of her mates were working her into a frenzy and she cried out as she spasmed. Once that subsided, her mates worked her panties down, one hip at a time. When Brendan went down to his knees and pressed his face against her mound, inhaling her essence, it was all Katlyn could do not to buckle right then and there. Katlyn worked her panties all the way down once they were at her knees and kicked them free, opening her legs for her mates to fully access her recesses.

Katlyn moaned loudly and cried out as Brendan slipped his tongue in her folds, working her to the point of no return, but she didn’t want it to be all about her like it had been. She wanted her mates as naked as she was.

“Please, stop. Brendan and Chase, please take off your pants. Now!” she demanded. She turned to Chase and yanked his shirt out of his jeans, unbuttoning it, and eased it off his muscled shoulders. She massaged his bare chest and squeezed his nipples—just like he wanted, from the look in his golden eyes that were about near slits now. Katlyn was used to and welcomed them to come out partly when it came to eyes and growing fangs, but was glad that was as far as it got. Yes, her mates were all animal on the inside and she loved who they were as both humans and mountain lions.

She watched in wonder as Chase threw back his head and opened the button of his jeans, sliding the zipper down with the sound of metal on metal. She whimpered slightly at the sight of his large cock springing free and she moved her hand toward it, touching it briefly before he moved to take off his jeans.

Katlyn heard the sound of Brendan’s zipper moving down and she licked her lips, rubbing the pre-come on Chase’s cock while reaching back to feel Brendan’s cock, too. She was never satisfied until she had both of them in her hands at the same time. She felt powerful, knowing that she could arouse her mates, and couldn’t quite decide who she wanted to taste first. Since she was facing Chase, she eased him down on a chair and bent at the waist with her ass high in the air, glancing back at Brendan with a wicked grin.

She turned back to Chase and her tongue circled the head of Chase’s cock, working the crease until more liquid surfaced from his slit, which she promptly licked clean. Katlyn enjoyed his heady fragrance and taste that was much stronger than Brendan’s, and she lost herself to the moment as she opened her lips just enough to allow Chase’s shaft to disappear into her mouth. As she worked him deeper and deeper into her mouth, she moaned low in her throat at the sensations as Brendan’s tongue worked her slit from beneath her. She was in heaven. No, heaven was the wrong description—she was mindless, completely lost to reality as she bobbed her head on Chase’s lap while Brendan took a hold of her sensitive clit and suckled it until she thought she’d fall for sure.

When Katlyn cried out, Chase pulled her off of him and gazed into her eyes. “Enjoy your moment,” he said. Katlyn closed her eyes until Chase demanded, “Look at me. I want to see what your eyes look like when you come.”

She nodded, but it was so hard as she panted heavily, her folds tightening at the invasion of Brendan’s finger now. It was too much pleasure to take and still keep her eyes open. She screamed then and Brendan moved away, pulling her over to him now and toward the bed where the three of them sprawled out. Her mates each took a nipple into their mouths and suckled on a hard bud until she winced. When they looked up at her, she explained, “My nipples are more tender since I’ve been pregnant.”

Chase nodded, his finger pressing deep inside of her until she begged, “Please, I want to feel you inside me, now! I can’t take it anymore.”

Her legs were parted with Brendan’s help, and Chase positioned himself above her, filling her with his shaft as he pressed his body against her slightly, with just enough skin friction to send her mind into orbit as he entered her, filling her thirsty pussy, taking care not to lay fully on her. She reached around and grabbed Chase’s strong ass cheeks and squeezed them, bringing him in closer as she moved her hips to meet each of his thrusts, until she lost it. She felt a spasm begin that took ahold of her entire body, and she shook and shook until she felt Chase pulsing deep inside of her, finding his own release.

“Are you okay, Katlyn?” Chase asked in shock as he moved off her.

Katlyn wiped at the tears in her eyes. All she could manage to say was, “Oh, wow.”

“That’s not an answer—or was it?” Chase asked.

“Yes, I’m great is what I meant.” She laughed uncontrollably.

Brendan turned her cheek to face him now. “Do you need to call it quits for the night?”

Katlyn loved how sensitive her mates were to her needs, but she wasn’t about to call it quits by a long shot. “Not on your life. I want to feel you, too. I just don’t think I can move just yet.”

Brendan nodded as one leg went between her thighs while the other stayed on the outside. Katlyn didn’t know what was going to happen. It certainly couldn’t be possible for him to enter her that way, but that’s exactly what he did. He slowly worked himself inside of her and she really couldn’t move much at all, but lay there enjoying the feeling. “But, I can’t do anything.”

“Just lay there and enjoy,” was Brendan’s response, as he moved inside. She stared over at Chase who was grinning, knowing he had just given her what might be her best orgasm to date, but what she had learned about her mates was that they worked hard to both one-up each other, and to satisfy her any and every way possible.
