A Sensual Summoning, page 29
His influence.
That soothed the worst of her apprehension when she released a shaky exhale. She dropped a hand to where it tightened around her middle possessively, a great snake intent on devouring her in one swallow.
Maybe she should be frightened of it, but it was as well-known to her as Raef was. She trusted it.
A phantom tail formed around her neck, something licking into her mouth when she belatedly realized it had kissed her. Incorporeal and barbed with feral hunger, it touched every inch of her, saturating her breath with a sudden “ah” of pleasure.
It bristled at the noise, spines sharpening into needlepoints of overstimulation all over her skin, tearing a whimper out of her. Just when she thought she couldn’t take it anymore, it withdrew from her, dark energy laced with gold suddenly materializing as it moved back towards the shadows.
She watched the concentrated mass drag across the forest floor, her features freezing when it stood up, straightening into an identical version of Raef.
What else would it turn into? Her brain rebooted with the question. They were one in the same, even if this one looked more monster than man.
Entirely naked, dark energy coated his limbs and lower body where that same golden light pulsed in veins across the second skin. His hair was longer than she remembered, his eyes wilder. He flexed a gauntlet of shadowed claws in front of him. She recognized them, as big as a person, and bright gold as they clamped around the pouncing acolyte.
He stretched those same claws now, getting used to this form as his eyes fell on hers.
They were illuminated with an arrogance that only someone who spent eternity sitting at the top of the food chain could. If the humanity she often saw in Raef in the real world was one side of the coin, this was the other.
The beast he sought to chain.
The incubus. Rafael.
“I’ve been looking everywhere for you.” The trunk met her back when she spoke, face to face with the part of himself he’d grown to despise. Rafael gripped a branch in his way, the limb snapping and falling to the ground as he stalked towards her.
She cursed herself for being turned on by it. But his effect was thick in the air, unrestrained and defiant as her nipples chafed under the material of her dress. He wanted her desperate, she could see it in his eyes.
Something about the feral power rolling off him made her wonder if she had a kink for it, wetness already betraying her between her legs.
When that clawed gauntlet formed around her neck to bend her head back roughly, her jaw relaxed, lips forming around a gasp that he immediately pressed his thumb into.
“I knew you’d be pretty,” he all but growled, forcing his thumb deeper, her tongue flicking experimentally over the dangerous blade of the attached claw. “Too bad I only had you the once when he lost his grip. You felt so good wrapped around me…”
His knee pressed between her legs, pinning her dress. The heat that rolled off him was violent, dunking her in lava when he leaned down to her ear. “Is your lover not satisfying you, little one? That you had to find his monster to fuck you properly?”
Something ran up her spine with surprising sensuality before another presence diluted the incubus’ influence with something equally as potent.
“Let her go.”
Chapter 58
Raef’s voice came out of nowhere, a tremor of territorial fury shaking the dreamscape with the arrival of its master.
Usually, Faye would pity the one on the receiving end of Raef’s ire, knowing it was as good as a death sentence. But this time, all that anger was directed at himself.
His influence, who she unintentionally dubbed ‘Rafael’ in her mind, grinned above her, his savagely handsome features relaxing. Turning his head to look at Raef, the others’ acknowledgement felt momentous as prickling mistrust and age-old resentment crackled like live wires between them.
“And that’s all it took…” Rafael purred thoughtfully, his thumb massaging over a pressure-point high on her neck. “After an eternity of avoiding me, all I needed… was her.”
Raef stepped closer, his mirror growling when he turned them both. Her back met his front, finally giving her an uninterrupted view of the Daemon she’d been looking for this entire time. His jaw ticked when their eyes met, hardened with frustration but ultimately relieved when she appeared unharmed.
“I won’t ask again.”
He lifted his attention to Rafael slowly, eyeing the grip he had on her throat. His fingers twitched, drawing a whimper from between her lips as a surge of anticipation swelled inside her.
The erection pressed into her back compelled her ass to move subconsciously. Left to right, unconsciously seeking relief before she caught herself, forcing her hips to stop.
“I dunno about you, but I don’t think she wants to leave.” Reaching up to lift the swell of a heavy breast, Rafael smirked into her temple when she moaned. “It’d be cruel to leave her like this…”
Her eyes fluttered shut at the rumble, his voice triggering a Pavlovian response in her that had wetness pooling between her thighs. She was powerless to him, but not for the reason Raef feared.
His influence washed over her like water and oil. Meeting. Mingling. But never merging.
It was because they were the same person that she reacted so strongly. She was attracted to him wholly, not just the parts he wanted her to see.
Raef had yet to realize that. A vicious crack of power thundered in the air with his anger when his influence tipped her chin back to trace her lips with his own.
“Don’t you dare touch her!”
Her heart ached at the choke of emotion in Raef’s tone, absent of the cool monotony she was accustomed to from him. Something vulnerable and raw had made its way to the surface, a wounded animal lashing out in pain.
“You… you give them no choice,” he pleaded, “don’t make her one of them.”
She wanted to go to him. To crowd his face into her chest and finally remove the festering thorn somewhere inside him so that he might once again walk without this painful limp. But only he knew where that thorn was. Only he could remove it.
Rafael’s hold on her tightened, sensing her wobble.
“You’ve always treated me like a monster.” His glare was icy over her shoulder, pinning Raef while he filled his hands with her breasts. “But she… she doesn’t.”
Faye sucked in a breath when he finally released her throat, her lungs expanding after the tempting pressure that had been put on them. That clawed gauntlet found her hair instead, yanking her head back forcefully so that her soft body arched back against his hard one.
She kept her eyes on Raef the entire time, digging for shame inside her but finding none.
“And that’s what’s got you so riled up, isn’t it?” Power quaked beneath their feet; he’d struck a nerve. “The possibility that by this little creature falling for me too…” His fingers spread up her neck, two of them pressing into her mouth easily as she looked up at him. “Your hatred for me might just lessen and that terrifies you.”
Faye groaned around his digits that wagged lazily in her open mouth, her tongue instinctively wetting them.
“Stop antagonizing him.” She found her voice when he withdrew his fingers, the dreamscape glitching dangerously with the volatility of Raef’s emotions when Rafael hiked her skirt up over her ass, leading his wet fingers to tease her entrance lightly. “You’re just trying to make him mad. What’s wrong with you?”
Rafael was deceptively hostile, his words wounding when they should be encouraging. As much as she empathized with his isolation, honey attracted more bees than vinegar. For both of them.
“Oh, he’s not angry, little one…” Rafael grinned while Raef paced closer, unable to attack but eyeing his reflection like an enemy that needed putting down. “He’s horny.”
A moan trembled from her lips when he bent her over, the rough bark abrasive on her elbows and forearm. It hardly registered when something big and mean prodded her entrance slowly. His cock. Rock hard and leaking as he smeared her wetness around her lips with it.
“What’ll it be, Raef?” He hissed the name, throwing the challenge onto the ground between them. “You gonna stand there and watch? Or will you finally get off your high horse and join in?”
He filled her as he spoke, the unyielding girth of him stretching her wide. Faye’s jaw slacked, her arms shaking against the tree when Rafael lifted her leg and sank even deeper inside her.
With no time to adjust, she cried his name, the sound reverberating around the woods while her eyes remained glued to Raef’s conflict-torn features. The tent in his pants told her enough, he was barely holding himself back.
That wouldn’t do. Not when she wanted all of him.
She reached out a hand towards him, a panted “please” lost in the wet thrusts as Rafael picked up a hard pace fucking her. He heard her regardless, closing the distance between them. Her hand found his abs, trailing up to his hammering heart.
“Raef…” Smiling in relief, his palm cushioned her cheek when the arm supporting her buckled under the pleasure of his influence fucking her.
Her lips parted to say more, but only moan after moan was punched from her lungs with each pound of Rafael’s hips into her. His cock was so familiar, so perfect, but even high on the pleasure, she turned her lips into Raef’s palm.
A devastating crack echoed in her mind, or around her, she couldn’t be sure. It sagged Raef’s shoulders with a short exhale, the last of his walls crumbling when he leaned down to capture her lips hard.
Rafael groaned into her back when her walls tightened, the bliss in Raef’s tongue exploring her mouth incomparable. Burying his frustration and fear in her mouth as he plundered it, he left her lightheaded and delirious, chasing his lips when he broke the kiss to drop his forehead to hers, his eyes wet.
“I never wanted to steal your free will, Faye… I—”
“You didn’t—” She choked on a moan when Rafael angled his hips, striking that one devastating spot inside her and pounding into it ruthlessly. “When… when will you learn that I want all of you?”
“That includes me,” Rafael interjected with a long lick up her shoulder blade, a bite following when Raef pierced him with a glare, still mistrustful.
“He—He’s right.” She led his lips down to hers once more, her tongue meeting his as she sought to convince him, his hand dropping to the front of her dress to pull the neckline down for her tits to hang out.
“How do you know? How do you know this isn’t just the sweet-smelling nectar of a flytrap, luring you in?” Even as he said it, he filled one hand with her breasts, Rafael claiming the other roughly. “I make you want me, Faye. That is an incubus’ venom.”
“You’re so…fucking annoying sometimes.”
The surprise on his face might’ve been funny if his willful pig-headedness wasn’t so frustrating.
She reached back to hold her ass cheek open wider, Rafael grunting in approval when he stood back tall to watch his cock disappear inside her repeatedly. Picking her head up was a challenge, frowning at him easier as exertion flushed her expression and lust clouded her eyes.
“I know my mind now. If you were controlling it, it’d b-be quieter in here.” Her breathing was labored and her climax cresting. It felt too good, and she was pissed that he was holding back from her. “Y-you need more proof?”
He had no chance to respond, her hand pressing on Rafael’s stomach to stop him mid-thrust. He complied, golden eyes darting to her face where she took a half-step forward, his cock falling out of her. She needed her full attention for this.
“My name is Faye Kyteler.” She couldn’t believe she was giving one of those dreaded team building introductions just to prove a point. “I’m a Forsaken witch, who accidentally summoned an incubus instead of a familiar.”
Okay. This sounded more like an AA meeting now. One that involved dicks out apparently.
Realization softened the conflict in Raef’s features at her words, making it worth the pause even as Rafael knelt behind her to continue working on her pussy with his mouth from behind. She opened her legs wider to encourage him.
“He’s pretty… pretty cranky, to be honest.” Raef arched a brow at that, his fingers pinching her nipple in warning when a glimmer of amusement shone through the lust. “He once tried to make grilled cheese but forgot to wait for the cheese to melt. And he… he adds milk before the teabag, who does that?”
Clicking his tongue, she flashed him a cheeky smile when her hand fell to the front of his pants distractedly. He didn’t stop her, the heft of his cock filling her small hand that she immediately started stroking in time to the dexterous flicks of Rafael’s tongue over her pussy.
“But I guess… I can forgive him for that.”
“Very magnanimous of you.” He snorted, the tension bleeding from him in rivulets even as Rafael’s laughter was muffled by her thighs, adding a delicious vibration to his wet licks.
“Well, I’ve given him a lot of headaches since we met.” She sighed, swiping her thumb across his leaking slit to his muted groan. “He can taste emotions, you see. And I… have a lot of them.”
When he kissed the corner of her mouth gratefully, she almost stuttered with the trip of her heart, his hand falling to her clit to take over from his influence who stood.
“He’s had to experience all my sides… ever since I chained him to me. The good and the bad… it’s really unfair, now that I think about it.”
“Then why are you smiling right now?” His teeth caught her bottom lip to prove it, eyes swirling with an emotion she didn’t want to label, Rafael lining his cock back up with her dripping entrance, waiting for her permission.
“Because now, I get to know all sides of him too.” Candid honesty wasn’t her forte, but the awe it inspired in this immortal made it all worth it when she kissed him slowly. “Now, we’re even.”
Something clicked in his eyes in that moment, a silent truth slotting into place and around them. Peace soaked the parched soil beneath them, serenity settling over this small corner of Raef’s mind. Hope bloomed in her chest, and she knew that if nurtured, that feeling could grow and spread throughout his entire subconscious.
He just needed help doing it.
Who’d have thought, a Forsaken witch, the only one who could help a Daemon.
Pushing her hips back against Rafael, he filled her again, her moan lost in Raef’s mouth. Their kiss was short-lived, Raef dropping his mouth to her neck hotly when she turned her head. Another mouth met hers almost immediately, hungrily ravaging her as two sets of hands worked her closer to the edge.
Her knees buckled when she came, both sides of him so attuned to her that when she collapsed to her knees, they softened the fall with strong arms. The orgasm worked its way through her, draining her and squeezing Rafael in a vise until he was filling her with his seed.
There was so much of it, his ragged moans mirrored in Raef who coaxed her through it with rumbles of, “That’s it… good girl… take it all.”
He watched the bliss turn her boneless, Rafael’s cum pushing out of her around his heavy length that popped out to rest between her ass cheeks. His body shook above hers, worn out pleasure turning his kisses drunk on his way up her spine, his hand splayed between her breasts to keep her up.
It was enough to make Raef’s cock twitch in front of her eyes when he sat back against the trunk.
“Come up here, sweetheart.”
Dominance had returned to his tone, an easy slip back into routine that both she and his influence responded to.
Her legs were still weak when she climbed into his lap, copious amounts of release leaking from where her legs stayed spread over his cock.
“Fuck, look at her dripping. So fucking sexy.” Rafael groaned, both sets of eyes glued between her legs where she stroked through her folds, fingers sticky with cum when she found the head of Raef’s cock to lead into her. “What a filthy girl you are.”
“Filthy and all mine.” Raef bit her jaw when her head fell back.
Her walls expanded around him easily after already being fucked so thoroughly, Faye turning to wrap her fingers around the base of Rafael’s cock by her face. Below her, Raef groaned into her chest, painting her skin with wet ecstasy as she led the tip of Rafael’s length into her mouth.
When Raef bottomed out, her sore clit brushed his navel, sending a shockwave of overstimulation through her and forcing another few inches of Rafael’s length down her throat. She gagged, Rafael holding the back of her head in place as he groaned at the tightness.
Swallowing, her throat spasmed while Raef snarled at him to be careful.
“She can take it, can’t you, love?” The pride she saw in his face when he looked down at her had her nodding around his cock, fisting the rest as tears clung to her lashes. “We all know how greedy she is.”
Raef wasn’t doing much better, lifting her ass up off him to slam her back down on him. Wet squelches filled her ears from how used her hole already was, full of cock and cum that was already being pushed out of her with every thrust.
Her dress pooled around her waist, obsolete and in the way when Raef finally ripped it down the middle, baring her pleasure to the entire forest, his influence clothing her in an inferno she wanted to burn in forever.
“That’s better,” he muttered against her neck, adding to the blotches of marks already there with his teeth and lips. Spreading her cheeks, she rode him harder, her thighs aching from rocking over him.
“Such a special human we found…” Rafael growled from above, a flutter in her stomach at the praise causing both men to smirk. “C’mon love, take the rest of it. You said you wanted all of us.”
Those shadowed claws pulled her head down harder on his cock until her nose brushed his navel, pleasure bursting in her stomach when Raef snapped his hips hard up into her, striking her deep and sending her over the edge with a choked cry suppressed by Rafael’s cock down her throat.
Her breasts were sore, nipples taut as Raef sucked at them, grinding her down on him to ride out her orgasm that soaked his thighs and left her quaking.
