“Let’s get the two of you cleaned up,” I said, and led them over to the waterfall.
Chapter Seventeen
The water had been warmed by the sun. It was clear like crystal and, as we sank into it, the dust and blood from their bodies slipped away. While under the water, they undressed so they could wash themselves properly and I had the pleasure of gazing upon their naked manly bodies. Breath caught in my throat and I blushed a little as I looked at them, wondering how I had been so blessed, to find two men who embodied everything I wanted in a romantic partner.
I fully submerged myself in the water, as well, although I was not naked, the water did soak my clothes and make them cling to my skin, forming a tight outline around my flesh, leaving little to the imagination. Rick and Dalton looked at me with awe and desire. We remained close with each other. I didn’t want to drift too far away, because I enjoyed touching them too much, and I enjoyed their touch upon me. I tended to their wounds and felt a haze come over me as I ran my fingers along the outline of their muscles. The waterfall was loud and drowned out all the other noise from the camp. I was in a new world. The old one didn’t matter anymore. My job seemed meaningless, for what meaning could I derive from life if I wasn’t with Rick and Dalton?
They winced as I cleaned their wounds. Their warm blood seeped out into the water and disappeared into the deep blue lake. We swam around, our bodies carried by momentum. We created ripples as our feet kicked under the surface, and I giggled nervously as I pressed myself against them. I felt an errant hand underneath the surface, running up the back of my thigh, squeezing my flesh tightly. I didn’t know if it was Rick’s or Dalton’s, and this only made the feeling more thrilling. I closed my eyes and parted my lips, sinking into a long kiss with Rick. I felt Dalton hovering close to me, and as I b
roke from my kiss with Rick I was turned around and lost in the lips of Dalton. My mind shimmered with desire and my body quickly sang with arousal. Rick’s arms wrapped around my waist and Dalton’s hands ran around my hair and neck, feeling the soft curves of my body. I moaned gently as I placed one hand around Dalton’s neck and played with his wet hair, while the other I placed firmly against Rick’s chest, feeling the thrum of his powerful heart.
“I need you…both,” I whispered, but I knew I did not want them in full view of the rest of the community. They nodded. A silent look passed between the three of us, and we lifted ourselves out of the water. It trickled down our clothes and dripped on the ground. It had served to refresh us after the battle, and personally, I felt as though I had been baptized. But there was still one thing I needed to do to fully be a part of this community and embrace my destiny as the mother of lions. I had to give myself to both of them, to share my heart and my body, to show them how devoted I was to their cause and to them.
We walked through the camp, our arms linked together, and I felt no shame as I walked with them. I was a woman with two lovers and I began to feel the freedom that had lured my parents away. In the city I would have been judged and shamed for being different than the norm, but out here I had no such worries. I was being myself, and for the first time I was doing something purely for my own benefit rather than because it felt like something I should do.

As soon as we were in Rick’s hut we fell into each other, kissing each other madly. My mouth shifted between both of them, tasting kisses from each of them. My hands stretched out and grabbed their warm flesh. I groaned as I looked down and saw the water still dripping from their naked bodies. Their erections were hard, thick, and alluring. They stood on either side of me and I was dwarfed by their masculinity. They were both giants compared to me. I felt so small, so utterly at their mercy, and a sweet feeling of surrender came over me.
My body began to tingle as they placed their mighty hands upon me and tore my wet clothes away, exposing my shivering flesh. It rippled with goosebumps, but heat soon spread through me and the nerves began to settle. Dalton cupped my chin in his hands and kissed me deeply. At the same time Rick’s hands curled around my waist and squeezed me tightly. I was dazed by Rick’s kiss. Their hands explored my body, groping my breasts, teasing my nipples, running up and down my inner thighs and over my stomach. It felt as though they were everywhere at once, as though I was completely dominated by them. There was no escape.
I staggered back and decided to do some exploring of my own. I let my hands drop down their rippling abs and gulped as I reached the heat of their sex. My hands curled over their erections and I felt a surge of pleasure as I gripped the tight flesh. I ran my thumbs over the mushroom tips and stroked slowly, teasing out low, guttural groans from each man. I looked up at them and a smile played upon my face, as I saw how their bodies tensed. All I wanted to do was give them pleasure and I sank down to the edge of the bed. My hair fell along my shoulders. Their hands slipped across my head as I bowed to them and opened my mouth, kissing and licking them, making love to them with my tongue and my lips. I tasted them and the musky heat tasted sweet upon my lips. I looked up as I shifted between their erections and saw their faces looking down upon me, before opening wide and taking them as deep as I could, coating them both in my saliva, feeling them swell and harden in my mouth. I had never been filled with such a powerful need to please any man before, let alone two men, and I knew it would never stop. I never wanted it to stop. Saliva drooled down the corners of my lips as my mouth was filled with their heat. The flesh blurred together and a knot of tension coiled in the pit of my stomach. It felt as though every part of me was on fire, including my mind. My heart beat frantically in my chest and a thousand fairies danced upon my skin.
My chest heaved and sweat trickled down my temples. My hair fell over my face and brushed against their thighs until I felt one of them pulling my hair away. Occasionally they would yank my head away and kiss me, but I was so lost in delirium that I didn’t know which one was which, and in a way it didn’t matter, because I loved them both so much. I gave myself to each of them and I knew that it wouldn’t have been nearly as intense if we had been enjoying each other separately. Dalton and Rick shared everything before me, and now they were sharing me too. It was the only way it could be. It was the only way it should be.
I groaned as I continued to suck, my jaw began to ache but I wanted to push through the pain for the sake of their pleasure. I wanted to give everything I had to them, but then I felt one of them pull away. It was Dalton, who sank down beside me, kissing me, and then went farther. He got in between my knees and spread my legs apart. All it took was the slightest touch and my legs opened for him, as though he was Moses commanding the Red Sea. I watched as he buried himself in me. First he ran both hands up my thighs, which were slick with wetness. He squeezed and then he brushed his fingers over my most intimate area, which made tremors quiver through my body. All this time I was still pleasuring Rick, but my mouth gaped open at the sensations Dalton was giving me. His tongue lapped at me and his hot breath washed over me, causing havoc in my mind. My palms spread on the bed as I attempted to steady myself. I was weakened by the pleasure, my mind chained and shackled, but at the same time drifting free, floating unencumbered. I was filled with a mixture of sensations and my mind didn’t know which way to turn.
Seeing Dalton between my legs was one of the most beautiful sights I had ever seen. Rick pulled my head back and my body arched as pleasure sang through me. Dalton’s tongue whirled like a tornado and my skin was flushed. I couldn’t believe everything was happening this quickly, but it went to show the power these two men had over me, and the lust I felt for them. My body was an instrument of passion; Rick and Dalton were experts at playing me. Rick dove down and kissed my breasts, lovingly suckling at the hard nipples, twisting and pinching them to make pain blur with exquisite pleasure. My breaths were heavy and frantic and, occasionally, my mouth was muffled by a hot and heavy kiss. My insides were churning and low whimpers escaped my throat. Rick nuzzled against my neck and kissed behind my ear, whispering to me, his fervent, primal groans reaching deep into my brain.
The men were so strong, and powerful, and filled with passion, that I thought they might shift into lions right there and then. They didn’t, but the knowledge that they had the ability to do so turned me on and I wasn’t ashamed to admit it. My eyes fluttered open and I saw these two men ravishing me. I had no idea how I had been so lucky and blessed, and I didn’t have the mental agility to figure it out. Every piece of me, every part of my mind was so focused on pleasure. It drilled through my body. I felt Dalton kissing me and pleasure bloomed from the middle of my body, spreading out all over me, seizing me in its splendor. I offered the hollow of my neck to Rick and felt his teeth tease my flesh. I was at the complete mercy of the two of them, and I loved every minute of it.
My body was on fire and I was shocked that they were not burned by the flames. The air was sizzling with the heat emanating from my body. All the pain of the past was being burned away and I was renewed, given new life by these two men, a new purpose where I didn’t have to be beholden to anything that had gone before. My arms splayed out, as a delirious look came upon my face, ultimate pleasure crashed through me as powerful as the waterfall outside, and I almost passed out from the sheer bliss of it all.
Just after I shuddered I saw Dalton rising. Rick stood back and pushed Dalton forward until his erection was in my mouth again. I sucked and kissed him eagerly, willingly. I loved feeling the heat of his sex inside my mouth. Tasting him felt so intimate, but then a new sensation came to me as I felt Rick’s fingers curling and twisting inside me, trying to beckon new pleasure forth, reaching deep inside me to the most sensitive, secret parts of me. I moaned as I sloppily took Dalton’s cock deep in my throat, dwarfed by the size of him. I reached up and placed my hands on his waist and thighs. I could almost feel the blood surging through him, as everything inside him focused on this one burning area and then it all came out in one glorious rush, the hot liquid exploding into my mouth, settling on my tongue. Like the most powerful drug, I was instantly addicted and intoxicated by it. Dalton groaned loudly as he pulled himself away, but I had no time to collect myself as Rick was instantly on me. Dalton shifted around and wrapped his arms behind me, holding me nice and tight. I used him as a bed and rested against him. My body was limp, so limp that it might well have oozed all over the bed, had he not held me so tightly.
I nestled into him as Rick came forward, still playing with me. He withdrew his fingers and then took hold of his erection, pressing forward, plunging his body inside me. I whimpered as I felt him stretch my lips and then ram fully inside me, every thick inch somehow fitting in. I groaned and my eyes widened as I felt the rhythm of his thrusts, the power behind each movement. My body shook and my hair fell across my face as pleasure exploded within me once again. It was as though after the first orgasm, the floodgates had been opened and the pleasure just flowed out of me in a constant wave, relentless and unstoppable, so much so, that they ended up blurring into one kaleidoscopic delirium and I wondered if I would ever stop feeling this way. I wondered if I ever wanted to stop feeling this way.
Sweat trickled down from Rick’s body onto mine. I reached up and felt his body, carefully avoiding the wounds of battle. Dalton kissed my neck and ears, whispering sweetness, while Rick unleashed all his passion and pleasure onto me. Sandwiched between the two men, I had never felt so fully entrenched in love before. My feelings for them swarmed through me and settled onto me like a warm cloak. I watched as Rick pounded me and seemed to drift above myself, as though my ethereal spirit was watching me and smiling upon me. I was driven so crazy with pleasure, that my moans turned silent. Rick was so strong inside me, and his hands came up to hold my body, showing that I was his, but I was Dalton’
s too. I loved both of them, and then I felt his supernova release inside me and my orgasmic, elated scream was as loud as their roars.

We lay together in bed. It took a long time for my body to recover from the overwhelming sensations that had rendered it limp and mute. Rick was on one side of me, Dalton the other, and I couldn’t have been happier to be with them. The sun was beginning to dip below the horizon and the smell of cooked meat was drifting in from outside. I felt utterly content with the two men and my decision to give myself to both of them. We squeezed each others’ hands and they gave me soft kisses. It felt entirely natural to be with the both of them and I knew I was never going to give this up, not for anything.
But, it was time for us to go out for the feast. We pulled on our clothes and walked out, side by side. I was proud to be their woman, and to be announced to the lions as their new mother.
We walked into the middle of the clearing where the fire was at its brightest. Meat had already been shared out between the lions. The stars were bright in the sky and I had never seen so many of them. They sparkled in their infinite beauty and I felt blessed to be in this new world with these lions. I couldn’t imagine how I would be happy any other way.
“It has been a long day for all of us, but I’m happy to announce that we have found a mother to our lions. We will not go quietly into the night, and we will not surrender our home to any other pride. Ellie has been chosen, above all others, to give new life to our pride, to usher in the future and I’m excited to see where this leads us.”
I looked out upon the crowd, upon all the people who I was now helping to lead and I wondered if I was truly the person to be the mother of their new generation. They all looked at me with hope and applauded me, and as I felt Dalton and Rick’s presence, I knew that I could be the woman they needed. I accepted my destiny. I stepped forward and waved my hands to the crowd, looking forward to getting to know each of them in turn. They were strangers now, but soon enough, they were going to be my friends, my family. My eyes rested on my parents. I never would have guessed that I would have ended up in the same place as them, but I did. I was handed a slab of meat and took it eagerly. I lifted it up and a chant sounded as I took it in my mouth and tore it apart. The hot juice dripped down my cheeks and I looked triumphant as I took my place at the head of the community, standing alongside Rick and Dalton.

Celebrations were well underway, as well as a small memorial service for Bruce, as people shared their memories of him. During this point I walked over to my parents, who expressed their happiness that I had chosen to remain.
“We weren’t sure you would, given how you felt about us,” Dad said.
