Twice The Growl (BBW Paranormal Shape Shifter Romance): A BBW in need of a date + Two hot Alphas looking for a mate = The hottest triad ever. (Paranormal Dating Agency Book 1) (7 page)

“I’ll shower and change in your guest room,” Connor offered. He sensed she needed the time to be alone, to think about what they offered and to decide what she wanted. “We’ll go and give you some time to yourself. Tomorrow, Theron can come and take you for that walk if you’re in agreement.”

The last thing they needed was for her to feel like she was being pushed into anything. They wanted her ready, willing and able to be the woman for them. Though they already knew she was the one, she still had to come to that conclusion. No amount of pushing or pressure on their part would encourage her trust. That would come with time.

Theron glanced at Tally.
She wore a long, sexy dress that hugged her curves like a second skin. It wasn’t tight, it draped perfectly over her large breasts, small waist and abundant hips. His mouth watered the moment he saw her.

She’d
worn her hair in a ponytail that drove him crazy. He loved her curls and wanted to see them hanging loose down her back. She pushed a long strand behind her ear and adjusted her glasses. The prim, schoolteacher look had never been such a turn-on.

How was it possible that she did that to him? She was so unaware of her beauty. It would probably kill him if she continued to bite and lick her bottom lip for much longer.
She hadn’t said anything of his holding her hand the entire time they’d been walking through the massive park. He’d deliberately brought her to one that bordered his land. It was silly, but thinking of her that close to his home brought a smile to his lips. If only he could do something to alleviate the confusion he sensed in her.

“What is it that concerns you
about a relationship with us?” he asked.

She sighed loudly. They went a few steps more before she
finally answered. “I’ve been married to the jerk you met a few days ago. I’ve dated so many men that only wanted to sleep with me or to find a woman to take care of them.” She stopped and turned to him. “Frankly, I’m sick of it. I’m not doing it anymore.”

“You shouldn’t have to. A partner should be
someone who takes what you already have and makes it better. Someone who makes you happy to have them in your life.”

Her
H
sad smile broke his heart. “That’s what we’d like to think. And that’s what men always advertise. I’m not sure I’m the right woman for you two. I’m too bitter.”

“You’re not bitter. You have just had some very bad experiences and I understand your hesitation.” He cupped her cheek and stared deep into her troubled eyes. “All I can ask is for you to give us a chance. No pressure. If at any point you feel the need to go or that this isn’t working, we understand
,” he lied. They’d probably die without their third, but he wouldn’t tell her that. She didn’t need to be pushed. She needed coaxing.

She pursed her lips and turned back to strolling. “When I was a kid, I swore my parents had the most amazing marriage ever. I mean really awesome. They were
always hugging and smiling and laughing. I wanted that for me.” She chuckled. The sound came out a pained laugh. “Then I grew up. I heard the yelling behind closed doors. I saw the bruises she tried to hide. I questioned her and do you know what she said to me?”

Waves of her pain surrounded them. He had a hard time yanking back the animal who wanted to offer her comfort. He bit back the growl threatening to escape and pulled her closer to his side. “What did she say?”

“She said that cheating comes natural to everyone. That it was my responsibility to accept it and let it go. That if I wanted a marriage to work I would have to understand my place as a woman.” She shook her head. “I don’t buy that for a second. I refuse to believe it and I won’t settle for it.”

“So she feels
it’s okay to have a relationship with a partner that isn’t committed to being with only one person?”

She nodded. “It gets better. She said the only way she’s stayed married this long is by having affairs herself. All her time away with family and friends allowed her the ability to meet up with men and do her own thing.”

His chest ached with the bitterness spilling from her lips. She hurt badly and he didn’t know how to stop it. “You have to understand not everyone thinks that way.”

She shrugged. “I know. I’ve met other couples who don’t have that as part of their lives. But the truth is, I have bad luck with men.” She veered off the main park path
and crossed to a desolate hill with a thick grassy patch. She stopped, glanced down at the view of the forest and sat down. “I have awful luck with men. Hell, I have terrible luck in general. You both don’t need my bad luck in your lives.”

“Let us be the judge of
what we need. All we want from you is a chance.”

She gazed out in the distance. “I have no experience with shifters other than Gerri. And she’s a handful.”

He grinned at the sound of her soft laugh. “That she is. She has been like a mother to me and Connor.”

Tally folded her legs
under her and turned to him. “How do you do it?”

He saw interest and curiosity spark in her eyes. “Do what?”

“How do you share a woman and not worry that she will fall in love with one over the other or more than the other?”

That was tough. “In an ideal world, you’d fall in love with both of us. We want
you to have the emotional link with both of us to create a strong bond.”

She nodded slowly but said nothing.

The breeze swirled strands of her hair forward. He leaned close and placed the strand sticking to her lips behind her ear. Her eyes widened behind her glasses. Then, to tantalize and drive him completely crazy, the scent of her arousal drifted into his lungs. Her heartbeat accelerated under his touch. Her skin heated and she licked her lips.

“I hope you understand.” He moved closer, pushin
g her to lean back on the grass, until her back hit the ground.

“Understand?”
Her voice quivered.

“I can’
t stop myself.” He stared at her mouth and allowed the hunger he felt inside to show itself a bit in his features.

Her eyes widened and she gasped.

“I can’t control my need to feel your body under me,” he said and leaned over her. He groaned as he lay between her legs, his cock nestled over her pussy. “You are so soft, Tally.”

She gulped. “Theron, I don’t think—”

“That’s right, darling. Don’t think. Just go with your instinct.” He leaned down and crushed their mouths together. She tasted divine. Like the sweetest honey and ripest fruit. Her body cradled him with her softness. He almost came on the spot at the first swipe of her tongue over his. No longer tentative with her touches, she thrust into his mouth and moaned. The sound was sexy as hell. For every groan, she moaned. For every thrust, she curled her tongue over his. He pulled at the hem of her skirt, pushing it up her thigh. He needed to feel her smooth skin under his palms.

She yanked her face sideways,
whimpering, “Oh, Theron. Christ that feels good.”

His cock jerked in his jeans. There was little he could do to stop the thrusting between her legs. She spread her legs wider and glanced into his eyes. “Do it. Now. Here.”

Normally he wouldn’t let himself get carried away this way. But her eyes, dark with desire, and her lips, swollen with his kisses, had his wolf pushing at the skin. Everything inside him shifted into pleasure mode. It was all about getting her off right now.

He kissed a path down her neck, to the neckline of her dress. With a single tug, her bra popped above the dress
. The sheer lace holding her breasts showed off her puckered brown nipples.

She wiggled under him, the heat of her core driving his cock to painful hardness.

“Please...” she moaned a husky little plea that sent shudders down his back. She probably didn’t realize how much she affected them. At that moment, all he wanted was to please her. To see her smile and watch her body unravel when pleasure hit.

He sucked a nipple into his mouth over the lacy bra, using the material to add a new dimension of torture to his woman.

“Oh, God!” She slapped her hands on his biceps. Her hips rocked into him. The sensation drew a groan from his dry throat. She was so responsive. To even the smallest touch. She’d gasp or mewl or moan. So softly. So desperately that he could think of nothing but shoving his cock so deep into her he’d watch her eyes roll to the back of her head and scream as she came.

He bit down on her nipple at the same time she scored her nails hard on his arms. Her eyes were closed and her mouth puffed air in and out of her pink lips.

They’d wanted a mate for so long. One who would please them physically and emotionally. Though she was emotionally scared, she was so fucking perfect in every way for them. Her body turned him on like no other woman had before. It might be her hidden sex appeal. She didn’t need to flaunt it. Her inner light shone through the fear.

He peeled back the bra and sucked her tit into his mouth. Her gasp and immediate shudder pushed the animal forward. He had a hard time controlling the beast. He liked her scent. Liked her taste.

He licked back and forth between her breasts, sucking, nipping and repeating.

“Theron...I don’t think I can take much more of this.” She met his gaze. Her passion-dazed eyes
broke the limit on his control.

He slipped his hand between her legs and found her wet center. Christ, she was soaked and dripping heat. He ached to be inside her, to feel her pussy clutching at his
cock with every slide into her velvety walls. Spreading her lips open, he slid a finger around her clit. She curved her back, pushed her pussy into his hand and groaned.

“More. Give me more, please.”

He loved the sound of desperation in her voice. Her muscles shook with how tense she was. He slowly fingered around her clit, tapping the tiny hard bundle lightly before moving away. He knew she was close and wanted to make it really good for her.

“Oh, baby you are so fucking wet. Do you know how badly I want to be inside you?”

She raked her nails up his arms and into his hair to tug his mouth back on her nipple.

“Suck me. Make me come,” she
ordered.

God, she was so
sexy when she got all dominant and aggressive. He knew that wasn’t something she did often. He sensed her normal hesitation deserting her. He sucked her plump breast and bit down on her nipple. At the same time, he slid two fingers into her slick pussy and fucked her so slow he knew she’d probably yell at him soon.

“You...are...evil,” she moaned. “I am going to shatter if you don’t hurry.”

“Oh, no. You’re exactly where I want you, beautiful.” He licked the valley of her breasts and nibbled on the other nipple. “I want you so desperate that when you come, your juices flow over my hand.”

Her
chest quaked with how hard she breathed. He blew air over her nipples. They scrunched up into tighter little points.

He quickened his moves, thrusting in and out of her pussy with first two, then three fingers. He prayed that his erection wouldn’t turn into blue balls because this was
not going to be one of those times where he’d get to slide up into her sleek wet pussy and get to feel her contract around him like a velvet glove.

Her breaths panted out of her in low moans. He watched her face, her features concentrated fully on reaching the peak. He bit down on her nipple and tapped her clit hard. She choked
out a moan. Her grip on his hair loosened as did her body under him. She went soft and a low gasp sounded from her.

She glanced at him and smiled. Not a half smile, either. It was a smile of someone having been pleasured to the point she couldn’t stop the grin.

“I have never done anything like that in a public park,” she said, blinking the sexual clouds out of her eyes.

“It doesn’t matter where we are, Tally.” He swiped his tongue over her nipple one more time before fixing her dress. “Your pleasure is my priority.”

He stood, ignoring his aching hard-on and helped her to her feet. “Are you good to walk?”

She nodded but glanced down at his cock. “Are you good to stay that way?”

He grinned. “This wouldn’t be my first time going home with no relief. I can handle it.” He cupped her face and kissed her softly. “I wanted this to be for you. I’m perfectly fine as I am.”

He wasn’t really fine, but fuck, he wouldn’t make her feel like she had
to suck his cock in the middle of a public park either. He wanted her to have this moment. It wasn’t about him needing her to return the favor.

“Are you sure?”
she asked and glanced around as if trying to decide what to do next.

“Baby, this was all about you. I am happy to wait.” He met her gaze. “For you, I’ll wait as long as I have to.”

Tally took Connor’s hand. He leaned down into the vehicle to help her out. The front of the banquet hall was filled with expensive cars. Her cousin’s wedding had finally arrived. They’d gotten to the church in time to sit in the back row and watch quietly. No one had noticed them or paid them any mind. Exactly how Tally liked it. The reception would be another story. She’d been dating Connor and Theron for a week now and things were a lot better than even she anticipated.
