“Bravest girl I know,” I reminded her.
Bell swallowed. Nodded.
Vik’s hands slid between her thighs. He used the lube like he was handling something precious, touching her slowly, carefully, watching her face like it was a map.
Bell’s breath hitched. Her scent flared again—sugar and heat and wetness, so strong it made my teeth ache.
Vik pressed one finger in.
Bell gasped, fingers clenching around mine.
“Look at me,” Vik said. “Tell me if you need me to stop.”
“I don’t,” Bell whispered, voice shaking. “Don’t stop. It feels good.”
Vik added another finger, stretching her with patient care, but also rubbing his thumb over that sensitive little nub. Showing her he was good with his hands, too.
Until her breaths started coming out quicker and quicker. The bond carrying every little sound she made straight into my skull, along with the wet sensation of her tunnel contracting around his fingers.
Fuck.Now I was so hard, it hurt.
I didn’t let her hand go, but my other fingers moved down to my cargo shorts, squeezing to give myself some relief.
She was ready.
Vik withdrew his hand, but had to ask one more time. “Are you sure?”
“Yes,” Bell said, and this time there was no spark of fear in her scent. “I want you inside. Please.”
“You’re sure,” he echoed, pressing his forehead into hers. “You’re sure you want me to go first?”
“Yes.” Finally, she let my hand go. She brought hers up to jab her index finger into her first maul’s chest, like she was physically pointing out her choice from a prize carousel. “I want you. I want you. I want you.”
There was a good chance she’d never let us turn her into a bear. We’d talked about that from the start, how we might never get invited into her head.
Too bad. Bell would never know how much her choosing him meant to Vik. How she filled up his entire chest with a light he’d never known when she doubled down on her choice.
Vik made a sound like a man breaking.
Then he lined himself up, and no more asking if she was sure…. He slid inside her with one hard claiming thrust.
Holy fuck, she felt good wrapped around her first maul’s dick.
Even calm AF Zion fell back into his chair because his knees went weak on the third-party setting of getting to be inside Bell.
Vik took a moment. Then knocked his lips into her face a couple of times before he captured her mouth and started moving inside her with deep, rolling thrusts that made Bell groan into his kiss as her scent flared so sweet I could taste it in my mouth.
I had to brace my hands on the table, breathing hard through my nose.
But I was so damn grateful.
I knew,knewwe were going to have to work up to my damn log.
But Vik was just right for Bell’s first time with one of us. He gave her what she needed. Without fear. Without pain.
Bell’s moans filled the room, along with her scent, and her head fell back from the kiss, lolling with pleasure.
But Vik wasn’t having it.
