Dragon Triplets (Triplet Harems Book 1) Page 4

  “What the hell is going on here?” she asked. “How is this happening so...so fast?”

  Adrian could only grin. “There’s more going on here than you know, if that wasn’t obvious. I can be your guide through it all.”

  His brothers flashed into his mind, and he realized that she’d need to meet them before too long. And more than that, the issue of an omega being in their midst, surely now known by the other dragons at the party, would be a problem to contend with.

  She bit down on her lower lip in a way that was undeniably sexy to Adrian. Everything about this woman seemed designed to entice him, to make him want to give in to his animal.

  “Do you want this?” he asked.

  “Yes.” She said the word without a trace of hesitation. “I do.”

  “Then you’ll have it.”

  Sarah gave him one more expression of apprehension, but it faded the moment he placed his hand on her thigh. She bit down on her lip again, another wave of arousal pulsing through Adrian’s cock. He returned his hands to her hips, squeezing them firmly and lifting her from where she sat, placing her on his lap.

  She spread her legs open and he pulled her in for another kiss. He couldn’t get over how intoxicating the taste of this omega was. He knew that they had an effect on alphas like him, but how powerful it was, he had a difficult time coming to terms with.

  I’ll have to keep myself in check, he thought as they kissed. Last thing I need is to lose control.

  He rallied his willpower and kept his mind in the present. But it was difficult—her kiss was like some kind of drug that he wasn’t prepared for.

  Adrian’s hands moved to the straps of her dress, and he slipped them down her slender shoulders, exposing more of her ample cleavage in the process. He took his lips from hers and began to kiss her breasts, pulling down the top of her dress and revealing the black bra she wore underneath.

  Don’t even know if I can wait to get her undressed, he thought. I need her, and I need her right now.

  Adrian rolled the dress down to her flat, toned stomach, and as he did, Sarah undid the buttons of his shirt. He was muscular and toned, and when she had his shirt opened, he could sense the effect his body had on her. A grin formed on her lips, one he took great pleasure in seeing.

  Definitely not going to be able to wait.

  While Adrian kissed her tits, Sarah went to work on his belt and zipper. It didn’t take long before she had them open, his cock straining against his boxer-briefs. He was more than pleased to see she was as eager to have him as he was to have her.

  He reached back and took her by the hair, holding her face in front of his.

  “Tell me what you want,” he growled, his animal growing hungrier by the moment.

  “I want you,” she moaned. “I can’t explain it, but I want you.”

  He smirked. “Good.”

  Sarah leaned in and kissed him again, her hands still busy down below. She slipped her fingers underneath the waistband of his underwear and took hold of his cock, pulling it out. Adrian was solid and thick and dripping. He knew that if he couldn’t put himself inside of her soon, he’d lose total control.

  She stroked him, grazing her fingers over his shaft and rubbing his head. Adrian let out a low growl that was part human, part dragon. As she touched him, he returned the favor, moving his hand between her legs and rubbing her clit through her panties.

  Sarah leaned back and moaned, her hand still on Adrian’s cock. The way she touched him was indescribable, Adrian’s chest rising and falling as she moved up and down his length. He pulled her panties to the side, slipping his fingers into her wet cunt. Sarah shuddered with pleasure, and he could tell by how wet she was that she wanted more.

  He was ready to give it to her. Adrian hiked her dress up, her luscious thighs bare. When it was around her waist, he grabbed the sides of her panties and peeled them off, Sarah moving to the side to assist until they were hanging off one of her high heels.

  When that was done, Adrian grabbed onto her hips once more and lifted her, positioning Sarah’s pussy just over his cock.

  “You ready for this?” he asked with a grin, knowing exactly what the answer would be.

  “So fucking ready.”

  He didn’t need to hear another word. Adrian lowered Sarah down, down until his head grazed her glistening lips. He closed his eyes with pleasure at the sensation and held her there for a moment. Sarah moaned, and he could sense the anticipation was driving her wild.

  Once he felt he’d teased her enough, Adrian moved her down further until the tip of his head was inside of her. She gripped him hard instantly, her pussy taking hold of his cock and guiding him deeper inside of her.

  Pleasure ran up and down the length of his prick, and Adrian wanted to savor every moment of it. More than that, he knew he was packing more than most women were used to and wanted to give her a moment to get accustomed to his massive size.

  When he was sure she’d had enough time, Adrian continued to lower her, Sarah’s wet walls gripping him tighter and tighter. The pleasure was incredible. He’d known omegas and alphas were designed to be sexually compatible with one another, but he wasn’t prepared for how good she’d feel wrapped around him.

  Sarah let out a soft, low moan as he entered her. Soon he was buried to the hilt, fully inside of her tight, wet cunt. Once she was down as far as she could go, Adrian gripped onto her soft hips again and raised her before impaling her on his cock one more time.

  Her hair tossed as she came down, and she locked her eyes onto his, a sly, sexy smile on her lips.

  “Feel good?” she asked.

  “You have no idea,” he replied.

  Everything was happening so fast, but Adrian was ready. He’d wanted an omega for years, and now he finally had one on top of his cock. There’d be trouble ahead, but he was ready for that, too.

  Sarah lowered herself, moving her hips on top of him. He watched her work, taking in the sight of his cock inside of her. He grabbed her tits, squeezing them firmly, her nipples erect. He couldn’t resist. Adrian leaned in and took one nipple into his mouth and sucked on it before doing the same to the other.

  She ground on him as he did, running her hands through his thick, dark hair and undoing several strands. Adrian couldn’t hold back any longer. He took hold of her hips one more time, holding her just above him. Once she was in place, he began to thrust, pounding into her as hard as he could. Sarah’s breasts bounced wildly, and moans poured from her lips.

  “Yeah,” she cried. “Just like that!”

  He grinned, knowing he was giving her exactly what she wanted. Adrian felt her walls tighten around him, a sign that she was getting ready to cum, and cum hard.

  But he wasn’t done with her yet. He moved her, laying her facing-up on the couch and positioning himself over top of her. She smiled up at him, wrapping her hands around his thick arms and her legs around his waist. He started again, thrusting into her with all he had, his animal rushing to the surface.

  He felt his body go hot, as if he might shift at any moment. But Adrian knew he had more control than that. As an alpha, control was one of his specialties.

  Adrian continued to pound her, and he knew an orgasm was inevitable.

  “Oh my God!” she shouted. “I’m gonna...”

  He grinned through the pleasure, taking satisfaction in how good he was making her feel. Then her expression went tight, and she let out another shriek, one that let him know she was coming. Her walls clenched around his cock, her grip so tight, it pushed him over the brink.

  The two of them came together, Adrian draining his cock inside of her as her orgasm took hold. He pulled her close, pressing her body against his.

  The orgasms faded, and Adrian collapsed at her side. The two of them said nothing for a time, both of them content to catch their breaths.

  But when they’d both recovered, Sarah’s eyes went wide with realization, as if what had happened was now dawning on her.

  “All
right,” she said, her voice firm. “You need to tell me what the hell’s going on. And right now.”

  CHAPTER 6

  SARAH

  She didn’t waste any time pulling her dress over her breasts and the hem of her skirt down her legs. Sarah felt like a spell had been cast over her, one that was only just then fading away.

  Sarah watched as Adrian tucked his cock back into his pants and redid his clothes. He flashed her a sly half-smile as if he had a secret that he was going to let her in on.

  “Take a sip of your drink,” he said. “You’re going to need it for what I’m about to tell you.”

  Sarah’s eyes went to her drink and, without thinking, she brought it to her lips and took a long sip. Whatever she’d drank earlier in the night had faded, and whatever had come over her, she knew she couldn’t blame the alcohol.

  “I don’t normally do that,” she said quickly. “Like, ever.”

  Adrian took his drink and stood up, slowly making his way across the room without saying a word. She found herself wondering if he was building some sort of anticipation, making her wait. Or maybe he was only trying to find the right words for what he had on his mind.

  “It’s all right,” he said, finally turning back towards her.

  His hair was mussed from what they’d done, and with a smooth sweep of his hand, he fixed it. Despite how strange the whole situation was, Sarah found herself unable to take her eyes away from Adrian. Like she’d noticed at the party, he very well might’ve been the most attractive man she’d ever seen in her life.

  And he’s loaded, she thought. Not that it matters.

  “Where to begin,” he said. “Let me ask you this: have you ever noticed having any strange abilities?”

  At first, she didn’t want to answer. But the way Adrian looked at her...she felt as though he had the ability to see right through any lie she might tell.

  “Powers?” the word tumbled out of her mouth. “What...what do you mean?”

  Adrian grinned, and she knew right away she’d been found out. No sense in lying.

  “I think you know what I mean. Anything that the average human can’t do.”

  Sarah didn’t like the way he said “human,” almost as though he considered himself different from them. Then again, she realized, after what she’d seen that night, she couldn’t be sure about anything like that.

  “There’s...something,” she said. “Sometimes I can...oh, I know this sounds crazy, but sometimes I can hear what other people are thinking.”

  His eyes flashed as if she’d given him the exact answer he’d wanted to hear.

  “Exactly,” he said. “That’s what I’m referring to.” He sat down on the couch next to her, close enough she could feel the heat from his body. “That’s because you’re different than other people. You have blood in your veins, blood that gives you these abilities. And blood that makes you irresistible to people like me.”

  “What do you mean ‘people like you?’”

  “You have to know what I’m talking about,” he said. “You saw those men tonight, saw how they changed their forms into those of animals.”

  “How the hell did they do that?” she asked.

  “They can do that because they’re not human. I’m not human.”

  Fear ran through Sarah’s body. Part of her wanted to get away from Adrian as quickly as she could, but another part of her wanted to listen to everything he had to say.

  “We’re what you call shifters,” he said. “Beings not quite human, not quite animal. We have the ability to change our forms, to take on the animal that lives inside of us.”

  Sarah instinctively backed away. “You...have to be kidding. Shifters?”

  He nodded. “There are thousands of us in the city, all in our separate clans and factions. I’m a member of the Thorne clan, of which there are three members—me and my brothers.”

  “This is insane,” she said. “You’re...telling me some kind of story or something.”

  He grinned again. “After what you saw tonight, you’re going to doubt this? You saw for yourself those men change. Those were wolf shifters, and they’re some of the most brutal, barbaric shifters in the city. You’re lucky I was there to protect you from them.”

  Sarah’s heart raced. Everything he told her lined up with what she’d seen.

  “And that party tonight?” she asked. “What was that?”

  “A gathering of some of the most powerful shifters in the city, of course. Not sure how you ended up there, but it was only a matter of time before we found you. A woman with blood like yours can’t stay hidden for long.”

  “Blood like mine,” she repeated. “And what is that supposed to mean?”

  “You’re what they call an omega. It’s a sort of human-shifter hybrid that’s more human than shifter. You have the ability to produce offspring for alphas—men like my brothers and me. And omegas are as rare as they come.”

  “Is that what this night was all about?” she asked, still not sure what to believe. “You trying to...produce offspring?”

  He sipped his drink, casual as ever. “No. Tonight was about protecting you from the wolves. What happened when we got back...well, they say alphas and omegas find each other irresistible, as I said.”

  Sarah shifted in her seat. Assuming everything this man said was true, she had no idea whether or not she could trust him.

  “You were protecting me?” she asked. “From whom? The wolves?”

  “More than just the wolves,” he said. “Now that you’re in town, every dragon is going to be on the hunt for you. And more than dragons—other shifters know how valuable you are. They’re going to try to find you and take you, ready to sell you to the highest bidder. And there are some very high bidders in this town.”

  “And what, you’re different than them?”

  “Less ruthless, less...murderous.”

  The way Adrian said the word sent a shiver up Sarah’s back. She still was confused as hell about the world she’d gotten herself into, but she didn’t doubt what he’d just said.

  “The fact of the matter,” he went on. “Is that you’re in danger. And the Thorne clan, my clan, is the only one that might protect you.”

  “So, what are you proposing?”

  “I’m proposing that you stay here with me. My brothers all have other apartments in town, and we can switch you between the locations to make sure your exact whereabouts are a mystery to those who might seek to do you harm.”

  “Stay with you? Just like that?”

  He nodded. “I know it sounds sudden, but it’s the best option you’ve got. You take your chances out there in the city, and I can only guess what might happen to you.”

  “And how do I know I can trust you?”

  “You don’t. But I can assure you, what I’m offering you is the only way to keep you safe.” He finished his drink and rose. “How about this—you’ve had a long night, and I’m sure a difficult day. Why don’t you take one of the guest bedrooms and get some rest? You could likely use it. And tomorrow, we can discuss this matter further.”

  The way he spoke the words made it seem to Sarah that she didn’t have any say in the matter.

  “Um, OK,” she said. “Where am I staying?”

  He gestured towards her. “Come with me.”

  Adrian stepped across the room and started down the hallway. He glanced back, beckoning her to follow him. Not knowing what else to do, she rose and moved toward him.

  They continued together until they reached one of the many rooms that lined the hallway of the massive apartment. When he stopped, Sarah became acutely aware of the scent that lingered on him. It was...irresistible. Even though she still didn’t trust him, she couldn’t ignore the effect he had on her.

  She wondered if there was something to what he’d said about alphas and omegas. Part of her wanted to believe he was making everything up, but as soon as she’d begun to thought it, Sarah would remember what happened that night, how those men had turn
ed into wolves and nearly killed her.

  Sarah stopped before Adrian had a chance to open the door. “You’re a shifter, right?”

  “Of course I am,” said Adrian.

  “Then let me see it. I want to know what kind of...creature I’m dealing with.”

  Adrian half-smiled. “You want to see my animal form?”

  “That’s exactly what I want.”

  “Fine. Come with me.” He turned and led her back to the living room. “Out on the patio. Not enough space in here.”

  They continued outside onto the large patio outside of the apartment. She couldn’t believe how big the place was—Kelly’s apartment would fit on the patio alone.

  “Now,” said Adrian. “Step back.”

  Sarah did without saying a word. Once there was some distance between her and Adrian, he closed his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest.

  Then he changed. Adrian grew in size, and as he did, his skin began to turn into what looked to Sarah like scales. His form shifted from human to some sort of reptile. When he was finally finished, Adrian loomed over her, his dragon form a brilliant golden color.

  Sarah gasped. She wanted to run, but more than that, she was fascinated. Like the men before, Adrian had changed. He peered down at her with eyes as golden as the sun, his mouth twisting into that now-familiar wry smile.

  He snorted, his breath hot.

  “Oh...oh my God,” said Sarah finally.

  Adrian stayed in his dragon form for another few moments before shifting back.

  “There,” he said once he was human again. “Does that serve as the proof you need?”

  Sarah was too stunned to speak. Adrian, sensing this, took her by the hand and led her back into the apartment.

  “You’re in a world you can barely understand,” he said. “But you’ll be safe with my brothers and me. It’s the best chance you’ve got.”

  She kept quiet, Adrian bringing her to the bedroom and opening the door. The room was small but cozy, a large window looking out over the city.

  “You’ll be staying here. I’ve got business to attend to with my brothers. If you need anything, I’ll leave my number. Understood?”
