Taming Two Warriors (Kindred Tales)

“Or lack thereof,” Vorn said in a low voice. “Tell me something, baby—why is it I don’t smell any sex in your bedroom? When was the last time your male took care of you the way he ought to?”

Jodi stiffened against him.

“Again, not your business,” she snapped.

“Yes it damn well is,” he snarled. “How do you think the Varians track their prey, anyway? By scent. So if you’re going around putting out sex pheromones like you’re in Goddess-damned heat, how much more easily do you think they’re going to find it to track you down? I’m telling you, for your own safety and for my sanity, you need to get off. And if that fucking fiancé of yours can’t be bothered to come and do his duty by you, you need to do it yourself.”

Jodi bit her lip, a maelstrom of dark emotions swirling inside her. Rage, embarrassment, lust, need…

“I can’t believe you’re saying this to me,” she bit out at last. “This is wildly inappropriate.”

“Inappropriate or not, it’s fucking true,” Vorn growled. “I’m just trying to keep you safe, Jodi—that’s my job and you’re making it damn hard to do. Now look…” He seemed to shift tone, from irritated to coaxing. “Is there something in the room you gave me to stay in that you need to help you?” he asked her. “You need that big purple shaft thing? You need to have your pussy filled really full in order to get off?”

Jodi felt a rush of heat wash over her.

Holding me down…talking dirty to me…Yes, Master…anything for you…anything at all…

She tried to push the forbidden fantasy away but it was no good. Her nipples were suddenly hard little points at the tips of her breasts and her pussy was throbbing between her thighs. It was like the big Kindred had flipped a switch inside her and she was powerless to shut it back off again.

“What…what do you mean?” she demanded breathlessly, wanting him to go on, though she knew damn well she shouldn’t.

“I’m just saying that different females have different needs,” Vorn murmured in a reasonable tone. “And you shouldn’t be ashamed of those needs, baby. If you need to have your little pussy stuffed full of a long, hard shaft that you can clench around to help you come—that’s all right. Or if you need your soft little clit licked and your ripe nipples sucked and tugged, that’s okay too. It’s all right to want to use toys and you shouldn’t be ashamed of them.”

“I’m not ashamed,” Jodi denied, although the memory of the big Kindred holding her favorite vibrator in his hand still brought a blush to her cheeks. “I’m going to be a sex therapist, remember? I know I can use toys—and I do use them.”

It was strangely liberating to admit this, especially since she’d hidden that fact from her fiancé for so long. She had once tried to bring a tiny little finger-vibe to bed with them, but James had reacted badly and accused her of trying to “emasculate” him. After that, Jodi had kept her little toy habit to herself—along with her other interests.

“You fucking-well do use them.” There was admiration in Vorn’s deep voice that surprised her. “That damn purple thing is nearly as big as my own shaft—I didn’t think human females could take something with that kind of girth and length without using bonding fruit or having a Beast Kindred’s precum to ease the way first.”

“I don’t…don’t know what you’re talking about,” Jodi said. The big Kindred still had her wrapped in his arms, but his grip had loosened to the point that she probably could have twisted away from him and gotten free. But for some reason, she didn’t move an inch—just remained as she was, with her back against his broad, warm chest as she sat on his lap.

“I’m talking about the fact that a human female usually can’t take a shaft that big without help,” Vorn rumbled. “That’s why I thought you might need that, uh toy I found to help yourself get off.”

“I don’t need it,” Jodi protested. “I just…sometimes I, uh, use it when…when James can’t come home or he’s too busy with his research to, um, spend time with me.”

She couldn’t believe she was telling the big, irritating Kindred this. But she felt almost drugged by his warm leather, smoke, and spice scent and by the way he was still restraining her and speaking directly into her ear.

“Too busy to spend time with you? Too busy to do right by you, you mean,” he growled. “What the fuck is wrong with him, anyway? How can he be blessed by the Goddess with a beautiful, intelligent, curvy female who obviously has such a high sex drive and not want to come home and satisfy you every damn night?”
