Loving Two Dragons (Awakening Cycle Part 4) (BBW Dragon Shifter Paranormal Romance) (4 page)

Chapter seven

Jennifer

Archer and Logan stare at each other. The tension between them fills the room making me edgy. No one speaks. It seems they're about to come to blows and I don't understand what's going on. I look between them but neither will meet my eyes.

"Archer? Logan?" I ask.

Logan shakes his head and looks away first. "I should go," he says.

"No," I reply focusing on Archer. "Stay. What's going on? What happened down there?"

Archer inhales then sighs, his shoulders slump as he turns away. Logan stares at the floor.

"Nothing," Archer says. "Nothing at all."

I wait for one of them to make a move, to say something more but it's obvious they've reached an impasse.

"It's me."

They both turn quickly then see the other one looking and glance away confirming what I know. Memories tug at me but what we've done before hasn't worked. Staring at the floor the past seems distant to me, like it happened to someone else. What haven't we tried?

"What do you do when I'm ... gone?" I ask.

Neither of them look up. They're not willing to bend in the slightest. Men. I wait.

Logan breaks first. "We support each other," he admits.

"Right," I say. "Each other. But when I'm here?"

"We fight," Archer says.

I nod, waiting to see if either of them will see the truth they just admitted. Logan shakes his head as Archer reaches for an apple and turns it over in his hands.

"Well?" I ask.

"What Jennifer?" Logan asks at last. "He's my best friend. Almost as much as you he completes my soul but we can't both have you no matter how we try."

"We've tried sharing you," Archer adds. "It's never worked out. How can two men share one woman? We love you. When I see you with him it makes me..." He crushes the apple in his hand throwing the pulp into the unlit fireplace.

"Exactly," Logan says. "I'm jealous. Is that what you want to hear? I'm jealous. I can't stand it when you're kissing him and not me. I want your lips on mine, I want to be the one in your bed every night, never let him have you and I know he feels the same."

"When you look at him and I see the love in your eyes," Archer says with unshed tears. "It drives me mad. I can barely control myself."

So many emotions blend inside me that I feel on the edge of exploding. My heart is filled with undeniable love for both of them. No matter how I try, I can't place one over the other. They're equal in my heart. My stomach ties itself into knots then flips over leaving me feeling like I'm falling or dropping on a massive roller coaster. Yet I feel as light as air like nothing can hold me down.

I walk over to Archer and take his hand. I hear Logan's breath catch. Archer looks at me hope with blossoming in his eyes. I pull him along with me back to Logan. I take Logan's hand in my other hand. The three of us stand together.

"I love you," I say looking at them each in turn to drive home my words and my intention. "I love you both. What I think you are missing is that you love each other as much as you love me."

"Jennifer, we're not-"

"What? Gay? Of course not. You love me. Both of you and I love you both. Why do we always come back together? Why is it always the three of us and no matter how we try it never works? Because it's never been the THREE of us. It's been two of us and an extra."

They're confused. It's plain to see on their faces but deep down, below the prejudice, below the pride, understanding is starting to form.

"When I die, you two come together and you're as tight as any two people can be. When I'm here you're divided. Jealousy separates you no matter if you're together or apart. A broken triangle cannot stand."

Something alights in Archer. A change comes over his face and demeanor as understanding dawns. "What did you say?" he asks.

Logan looks confused.

"A broken triangle cannot stand," I repeat myself and Archer nods.

"That's what she said," he says.

"Who?" I ask.

"Athene. She said that to Remy. That the broken triangle could not stand, but a pyramid would stand the test of time."

"Athene?" I ask but Archer shakes his head.

He reaches for me, his right hand touches my cheek, cupping my face. He reaches for Logan with his left hand in the same motion. He pulls our heads together until the three of us stand close.

"Always," he says. "Always it is the three of us but never as one. Together we form a pyramid, not a triangle. A triangle is the base. A triangle where one side is not fully touching the other is broken. We have been broken."

Logan places one arm around each of us and I do the same. Something shifts. I feel it deep inside like a lock clicking into place. As my stomach un-knots my heart lightens and my body floods with desire.

"I love you," Logan says. "I love you both."

"Yes," Archer says. "I do not want to live without either of you."

Archer moves, kissing my neck as Logan does the same from his side. Two hands move across my ass exciting my passion. I turn to Logan kissing him deeply. Their hands move across me, seeking out my breasts, working at the fastenings of my clothes and I theirs.

Breaking the kiss with Logan I turn to Archer's waiting mouth. I turn fully into him and Logan presses against the curves of my ass, his cock strains against the fabric separating us. He undoes the buttons of my dress finding bare skin and sending electrical bursts across me. I grind my hips against Archer as need grows.

We move towards the bed as one, clothes falling to the floor. The sensations are familiar yet completely different. I've had them both before but never like this. As one they lift me off my feet and lay me out on the bed. Then they climb on, one on each side. Their hands roam across my thighs with soft touches as their mouths tease my nipples to rock hard nubs.

Teasingly, as one, they move towards my soft center then around without parting my silken folds. They kiss up from my breasts, across my neck, then our lips meet as one. Our tongues dance together fighting like three dragons in flight. Two hands run across the curves of my hips then as one dive towards my core. I spread my legs wide welcoming my two men in. One hand probes slowly into my wetness as another parts my folds seeking out my clit. I'm so ready I take the invading fingers in easily. Pleasure pulses from my clit as gentle fingers circle around that hard button.

My hands seek out their hard cocks grasping them both firmly as our kissing continues. I stroke them, enjoying the feeling of soft skin sliding over the rock hard erections of my men.

"Mmmm," I moan.

As one they grunt then Logan kisses his way down my neck pausing at my left breast to circle the nipple with his tongue before he traces the swell of my belly then he laps at my sugar walls. Archer kisses me, his tongue probing my mouth as Logan's probes my pussy. Wetness leaks out of me drenching my thighs and the sheets below me. I'm wound so tight I could explode and I feel it coming soon, building. Archer's hands toy with my breasts as Logan's tongue attacks my clit with a ferocity built of overwhelming desire. My grip on their cocks tightens and I stroke faster as the orgasm builds and I fall over the edge with it.

Shudders pass over me, carrying me away until I lay limp and sweaty. Both my men are holding their positions when I become aware again. I pull them up by their cocks and they move to my will. I position them to either side with their cocks directly above me. Teasing the head of each before sliding one then the other into my hot mouth.

"Ohh," they moan as I pleasure them, sending a thrill down my spine.

My saliva coats them as I take each into my throat. I reach around placing my hands on their hips pulling them in closer until I have them both in my mouth at the same time. They stretch me in an unexpected but pleasurable way. My pussy starts to throb with further need like a void inside my core that needs to be filled the same as they are filling my mouth.

Logan looks at Archer as they thrust in my mouth, then he leans over and kisses his best friend. They rest their foreheads together looking down at me. I feel them growing larger and know that they're close to the edge. They close their eyes struggling to maintain control. I'm not done with them yet so I take them out of my mouth.

I rise up and pull Archer down to the bed laying him out flat then I straddle him. Logan sits to the side watching as I slide down onto Archers cock starting to fill the aching void. Archer and I both sigh as I'm impaled. I lean back against him supporting myself with one arm as I grab Logan pulling him over and guiding him so that he's positioned in front of me. The confusion on his face is unmistakable but I look down at his cock then at my pussy. Understanding dawns.

He moves forward and I feel his cock positioned. My walls feel stretched just with Archer but the void inside needs more.

I need more, I need them both.

Slowly Logan eases his massive cock in on top of Archer's. He slides just the tip in and I cry out in pleasure and pain. He pauses giving me time to adjust to the sensation. I will myself to relax.

He slides forward a little more and it gets easier. An inch at a time he creeps forward and as he does the void inside me is filled at last. My pussy is stretched in ways I didn't know it could be, but the sensation of being full is overwhelmingly wonderful. Logan gets his full length inserted hitting the bottom of my core. The three of us lay there for a moment, my men's hot breath passes on each side of my face and I absorb the sensation of being filled.

Then they start moving and sensation becomes everything. All awareness focuses in on the pleasure signals as different nerves I didn't know existed are stimulated by their passage back and forth. They grunt and I moan as we build towards something I didn't know existed. Pleasure waves like a tsunami rush through me. A hurricane of sensations moves at speeds beyond comprehension. I'm stretched and each time they withdraw the void in me opens only to be filled on their next thrust.

Their speed increases and we're bucking as one. Each thrust drives me higher and this has to be the top but then I'm driven higher again. They drive in as one and they both hold, moaning. They're exploding inside me. I feel their hot seed pumping, mixing, and driving deep. My womb opens, drinking in their offerings like a hungry goddess accepting their sacrifice. My muscles contract and I'm rigid with spasms of pleasure.

Logan collapses on top of me and the three of us slowly come down to our bed. My two men give soft kisses, easing me back from the heights we achieved together.

Chapter eight

Logan

I wake up slowly to the realization that my arm is asleep. Pins and needles sting but when I pull, it doesn't move. Cracking my eyes open I can't help smiling when I see Jennifer lying on it. Memories of the night's experience return and my smile widens. Archer lies on the far side of her, the three of us spooned together.

Archer stirs, then Jennifer, and we're all awake. There's an awkwardness as Archer and I look at each other across her, but Jennifer kisses him then turns and kisses me with equal passion and love. Somehow it wipes away the morning after weirdness.

We shower together without any more uncomfortable feelings then we're dressed and someone has laid out a breakfast for us of fruit, cheeses, and coffee. As we break our fast the planning begins.

"We need to go back," Archer says over his steaming cup.

"With Remy we can beat those golems. They have to be guarding something. That's powerful magic to be doing nothing," I say.

"What are you hoping to find?" Jennifer asks.

"Proof. Indisputable proof of White's intentions. Failing that, there were references to an island off South America but which one? If we know that then we can try to interrupt their plan," Archer says.

"I won't ask how dangerous this is going to be. We don't have a choice do we?" Jennifer asks.

"Danger? What is danger to young dashing men such as us?" I laugh as Jennifer slaps my arm.

"You'll need to stay here," Archer says to her.

Jennifer's face shows a rapid sequence of emotions that say more about how she's changed and grown into her role than any words could ever express. Anger moving to hurt then immediately to resolve and acceptance.

"Of course," she says.

Archer and I both smile reaching for her at the same time. Our hands touch as we touch her face. We laugh.

"I'll go brief Remy," Archer says.

He rises from the table, kisses Jennifer, then leaves the room. Today, for the first, time, I don't feel like I'm stealing moments with her. Things have changed. She starts to clear the table then stops, staring down at an empty plate.

"You both return to me. I did this alone. I can do it but I don't want to. Never again, not without both of you."

"We will return my Queen," I say resting my hand on top of hers.

She nods then leans in and kisses me before she leaves with the dishes.

***

We emerge through Remy's portal back into the chamber they pulled us out of last night. The room is empty at the moment but the openings through which the golems attacked wait dark and foreboding. Remy moves to stand between the two doors while Archer and I separate to his left and right swords at the ready.

My blade and Archer's glow with a soft blue light from the enhancements that Remy added to them. The spells will only last an hour so we have to move quickly. Silence. We look to each other then Remy nods towards the left door. Archer moves forward slowly in a crouch.

The moment he steps through the opening there's a resounding clanging and the golem rushes from the shadows with a cacophonous blast of noise. The ground rumbles and then the other appears.

I rush forward while Archer engages the closest one. Remy shouts and purple blasts shoot from both of his hands striking the iron creatures. I parry an incoming arm with my sword. The vibration of the blow flows up my arm killing all feeling. I barely move fast enough to block the next attack.

The purple blasts form into chains wrapping around the heads of the two creatures. They start to slow but I'm slowing as well. Both my arms are numb from the force of its blows. I dodge one, duck the next, then I'm forced to drop and roll narrowly missing a strike to my head.

"Remy!" I yell jumping to my feet behind the creature.

I thrust my weapon. The enhancements allow it to slice through the creature's back. I pull up along what would be the spine of any normal thing. It shudders and shakes then it whirls around on its waist so that the top half is now facing me while its legs still face front. My sword is jerked out of my hand, still stuck in its back, by the surprise move.

I look up into the empty indentations where its eyes should be and a cold chill runs down my spine. Then I smile at the thing and laugh. It raises both its hands up. As they smash down I drop and roll between its legs. I land in a crouch behind it in time to see Remy strain backwards on the magical chains hooked to both the creatures. I grab my sword from the golem's back freeing it.

The creatures start to topple forcing me to roll out of this one's path. They land on their backs with enough force that the ceiling rains down on us in shards. I leap onto the chest of the creature I was fighting thrusting my sword down into its skull. It shudders as sparks fly out of its joints and limbs then it's still. I smile at Remy before turning to check on Archer.

"Malatanitia!" Remy yells magic words thrusting his hands forward.

I look towards the opening in time to see purple bolts hitting empty air before the upraised hands of two white, scaly women. The same two I fought in Jennifer's apartment. Magical energy crackles through the air between them and Remy. Incantations fly from one side to the other.

I glance at Archer and nod, then we charge. Remy's magic hits their shields so Archer and I attack with our weapons. They bounce off but I see the sweat of effort on their brows, we're wearing them down. It energizes me and I attack with renewed fervor. Then my blow goes through, magical energy blasts out around us. I stop my sword less than an inch away from the center of her skull. Fear is in her eyes as she lowers to her knees holding her hands up above her head in surrender.

"Well," I say. "Looks like we have a prize to take home!"

Archer nods then Remy comes over and binds them with magic before opening a portal for home.
