Savage Mist: Arden
1. Arden
Chapter 1
Arden
T he cool mist of dreams enveloped Arden in silky-smooth comfort. The slide of fur on skin was a lush, tactile sensation she sought night after night. Their touches had become so much more sensuous these past few nights. Firmly gripping here, rubbing there… Soothing and inciting all at once.
They spoke to her in dreams. Their deep voices now as arousing to her as their phantom touches. She’d told them about everything except her sexuality. This was new.
Yet, they knew her from the inside out. And she knew them. They had been together in each other’s minds for many year spans, coming into her dreams sweetly. Innocently. Cuddling and soothingly petting her as she rested. Held securely in their loving embrace.
There was nothing innocent about their touches now.
It was becoming a sensory overload. Lately, she’d had to get off as soon as she awakened, the build-up of tension growing too much for her.
Arden began pulling away into wakefulness, planning to relieve her need on her own. Her occasional bouts of sex were physically satisfying. But her heart belonged to the males of her dreams, so she chose partners wanting brief pleasures who she would likely never see again.
A deep, masculine tenor spoke in her mind, making her heart flutter and her thighs clench with need.
“ Oh, no, beauty. Where are you going?”
Vai sensed her trying to stir herself awake.
Arden was breathless.
“ I need to go, Vai. I can ’ t rest like this.”
He was the most mysterious. Hidden depths of knowledge and shadows of thought peeked at Arden through their connection, yet Vai never hesitated to share his feelings or opinions with her. She sensed he kept much of himself concealed but didn’t know why. To her, he was patience personified.
“ None of us are ready to rest yet. Tell us your needs, Arden. All of them.”
She felt the pull of Vai’s demand on her will but resisted.
Fear gripped her. She kept her sexual needs out of her dreams. Dreams were for love and understanding, hugs and cuddles. But they were changing the rules on her.
Arden felt a loving caress across her cheek, then lips softly kissing it. The tip of a masculine thumb pressed her lower lip open, fur softly tickling her upper lip. She couldn’t help but lick, enjoying the hint of sheathed claw at the tip contrasting the smooth textured flesh on the underside of his thumb.
The Lio Nel growled as she flicked her tongue.
“ Oh, yes, Arden. Show me what that soft tongue can do.”
Rally.
Arden helplessly sucked the tip of Rally’s thumb as arousal rode her hard.
“ That feels so good, Arden! It makes my imagination go wild.”
She relished his sensuous openness with her, recognizing how special it was.
Rally was a turbulent soul. So wary. He would not tell her why, but she felt his longing to connect despite his hesitation. It had taken many year spans before he completely opened his mind to her, trusting she would not invade his secret places without permission.
Rally took his thumb away as the gentle stroke of phantom fingers crossed her sensitive nipples. A low whisper rumbled in her mind.
“ What does my pretty pet need?”
Kano.
He’d called her ‘pet’ for years, but never in that tone. She couldn’t help but gush and writhe.
He was a bulwark of strength and sureness. His heart and soul were hers. There would be no other female for him. His love and strength belonged to her, Vai, and Rally. He listened before asking questions that helped her make her own mind up about situations, something she appreciated about him. Now they were insisting she share that last part of herself, her sexuality.
Vai’s lips pressed hers in a soft caress.
“ Open this to us, Arden. Let us see and understand all of you.”
How I want to!
But sex changed relationships.
Her cry came from deep within.
“ I don ’ t want to lose you!”
They stilled. Kano’s voice was soft and reassuring.
“ We will never leave you, Arden.”
“ What do you mean? It ’ s not like I have you now ! You ’ re just my Sweet Dreams.”
Vai chuckled.
“ We are much more than dreams, beauty. And you know it.”
Arden snorted a laugh.
“ Yeah, now you are my Wicked Dreams!”
Vai hummed enjoyment.
“ Hmm. Yes.”
He pressed his lips firmly to hers and twisted them open, stroking inside confidently, sure of his welcome. Arden drowned in his textures, loving the faint hint of flavor that teased her senses. Her hands reached up to feel his long, wavy mane, to stroke the velvet edge of his large, round Lio ears. She felt the brush of a silky tail tip along her flesh, the graze of other long manes.
How she longed to see the shapes and colors of these males.
She touched all she could of their velvety-furred, firm, muscular bodies. Curiously, she did not feel their cocks pressed against her. When she would reach where she thought an erection would be, her hand was gently redirected to other intriguing spots.
Vai pulled back to give Rally room for kisses as their touches became more deliciously focused on her nipples. She felt a phantom mouth suckle and groaned her need into Rally’s kiss.
Arden arched out of the kiss as a hard, firm hand clasped over her mound, caressing slickly over her folds. Two fingers slid deep, making her gasp.
Kano’s deep voice shook her control.
“ Tell us what you want, so we can give it to you.”
Arden needed. Craved. Burned. Broke.
“ Make me come. Please, please. Make me come!”
A hot mouth slid over her clit and a firm tongue teased her. She shouted as she peaked, body clenching rhythmically hard on the phantom fingers within her. Deep moans rang with hers as they joined her in dream-world pleasure.
A satisfied whisper ghosted across the sensitive shell of her ear.
“ Good pet.”
Arden shivered.
Rally snuggled close.
“ He ’ s coming, Arden. As are we.”
Pleasure still hazed her mind.
“ What?”
The phantom bodies shifted places. Vai spoke in her ear as mouths danced across her skin.
“Find us, beauty. Claim us for your own. He ’ s coming for you.”
Vai took the rest of her mind with his kiss.
Kano whispered close.
“ Keep coming for us .”
Yes!
