“Aww, fuck.” Caleb pounded me a few more times. “I can’t last with her ass squeezing me like this.” He pulled out as my orgasm finally began to dim, the aftershocks shuddering through me.
“Weak.” Ted laughed and brought his fingers to his lips, licking my taste from them.
“Shut up, man.” Caleb bit my shoulder, his teeth burning into my skin as Ted cupped my breasts.
I tried to catch my breath, to recover from the wrongness of the situation, but my head spun.
Ted leaned close, his dark eyes still hungry. “I know you liked that.”
Another series of screams erupted from behind me, but I couldn’t turn to look, not when I had predators so close on either side.
“Are you done? Can I go?” My voice quavered.
“Go?” He shook his head. “Why would you want to leave this party?”
My heart thumped so hard I could barely hear myself speak. “I just figured that maybe you’d be done with me, and I could go, and I swear I won’t tell anyone what—”
“Oh, sweet Cate. Look around.” He straightened and pointed at the woman still strapped to the wooden X. The man who’d been hitting her had dropped the flogger and uncuffed her legs. With her spread wide, he fucked her like an animal, his grunts loud and the sounds of his impacts ricocheting off the dark walls. Her head lolled back, and I couldn’t see her face. Then he pointed to another woman on her knees, a man choking her with his cock. Her hands were tied behind her back, and her legs were spread. Some sort of machine worked beneath her, and a dildo penetrated her pussy and her ass as she sucked and bobbed her head to the man’s fierce rhythm.
“Did you really think I was done with you?” He rested his palm at my throat, his possession of me complete. “We’ve only just begun.”
Chapter Six
Ted
I eased off the leather horse. My cock demanded I take the rest of Cate and finish what I’d started earlier at the restaurant, but it wasn’t time. Not yet. I wanted to savor every second of the debauchery I’d earned.
Turning to Caleb’s girl, I jerked my chin at her. “I’d like to go ahead and get a taste.”
“Sure.” Caleb grabbed Cate by the hair. “How about I bring this one over and we share.”
“I like it.” I leaned down and uncuffed Cate’s ankle.
Her leg shot out, but I caught her ankle and bit down on her calf until she screamed.
“Be good.” I smacked her ass as Caleb freed her other leg. “You’re always so submissive at the office. I didn’t expect this little rebellious streak.”
She turned to me, an unfamiliar fire in her eyes. “Fuck you.”
Caleb pulled her off the horse, one arm wrenched behind her back.
“Oh, my.” Vanth’s cool voice trickled down my spine.
I turned.
She perused me with one eyebrow arched. “Your sacrifice has a smart mouth.”
“Generally not, but I think the stress is getting to her.” I gave her what I hoped was my most charming smile. Being a guest here, I couldn’t afford to piss her off. Not to mention I needed what she would give me at the end of the night.
She stepped to Cate and ran a finger down her throat, stopping just over her heart. “He underestimates you.”
“Let me go.” Cate’s eyes glimmered with tears.
“I’m afraid that’s not possible.” Vanth smiled, her even, white teeth marked by canines that seemed preternaturally sharp.
“Please, I won’t tell.”
“Oh, I’m certain you won’t.” Vanth smiled and turned her dark eyes to me. “How are you faring this evening?”
“Wonderfully. Thank you again for having me.”
She smiled again, her dark eyes glistening like onyx. “I haven’t had you yet.” Her hand shot out and gripped my cock.
I stifled a groan as she stroked me slowly.
“I’m afraid I’m not allowed to partake.” She frowned, though merriment still lived in her dark eyes. “It would interfere with the ritual. But just because I can’t fuck doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy.” Her hand smoothed up and down my shaft, and I could swear there was the smallest hint of electricity in her touch.
“I’m sorry to hear you aren’t on the table.” I eyed the pale skin of her throat.
“Maybe some other time.”
Her touch was making it hard for me to think, much less engage in conversation.
“Remember, no blood until I say so.” She glanced at Cate. “Though yours looks like you’ve been treating her quite well. Though perhaps a little flushed.”
“I’ve been spoiling her.” I swallowed hard as she thumbed the tip of my cock. “Making her come.”
“Good. Though the pleasure is yours to take, giving will make the night easier for them. Make the end more bearable.” She gave my cock one more smooth pull before dropping her hand. “Any mercy you give isn’t wasted.” She glanced to the man reaming the woman lashed to the cross, a true frown turning her lips and narrowing her eyes. “Though like most lessons, it’s one some will learn the hard way.” She moved off through the room like a dark bird wheeling in the night.
