Chapter 12 #4
Instead of answering, he jumps. I scream into his ear, clawing at his back, trying to hang on and not be flung away.
Instead of getting angry at my freak out, he laughs at me, the entire plummet down.
We hit the water and plunge deep into it from our little jump.
I haven't stopped screaming enough to hold my breath before we hit.
Tobias's hands leave me as soon as we touched the water, and I swallow a mouthful of water before I fling myself to the surface with frantic dog paddling.
I swallow another mouthful of water and clench my eyes shut, preparing to go down when a pair of hot lips cover mine and hot breath is inhaled in my mouth.
Tobias has hold of me and he's kicking his way up to the surface with me cradled in his arms.
We pop up and I take ragged breaths, trying to stop my racing heart. Instead of fighting him, I bury my head against his warm chest. I really thought I was about to die. "Where's Theo?" I wheeze, as I clutch Tobias tighter
He points to the top of the cliff. Theo has just watched me almost drown without a care in the world. Really, am I more than a piece of ass to these two? They claim I am a mate, but that is not how they treat me.
Theo tosses the bag down and it soars off the cliff to thud in the dirt.
It isn't the highest jump, but it still makes me shiver.
I fucking hate heights. Theo dives off the top, doing a diver's entry into the water.
He vanishes into the depths and I search around but can't find him.
Has he gotten hurt? Or hit his head? Could vampires die? I worry my lip with my teeth.
A pair of icy cold hands grips onto my ankles, and I have but a minute to yelp before I’m dragged boldly beneath the water.
Theo smiles at me from the water and pulls me to him, forcing a kiss on me.
I try to avoid it because we were still in the fucking water, but his icy grip has no sympathy for me.
The water rushes in my mouth as he kisses me but his icy tongue and lips refused to let me recover.
I struggle, beating against his chest, fighting for my life. Theo drags me to the top and helps me to the shore where I cough out lake water from my lungs and shudder. Theo is supposed to be the good one. What has gotten into him?
Theo shrugs and gives me an apologetic smile. "Sorry, I had my orders."
"Orders?" I cough again, glaring over at Tobias.
"You belong to us, Imogen. You're our mate. We can pretty much guess what you're thinking after being around you so long. Did you really think you could just slip away from us while out on a date?"
"Date?" I snort the word out, pulling myself into a sitting position. "You can't call this a date, and I don't fucking belong to you, either of you."
"Oh?" Tobias questions, moving closer to me. He is still in the water, I didn't need to fear him yet. His eyes aren't pitch black yet. I haven't awoken that demon in him. "Then what was last night, and the shower about, if you don't belong to us?"
I glance away from him, unable to meet his eyes.
It isn't that it didn't mean anything, or that I haven't enjoyed all the sexual attention, I have.
I realize my mistake when I hear the squish of a foot in the mud.
Tobias straddled me, holding my arms above my head, and smiling down at me, a smirk twisting his lips, an eyebrow cocked, waiting for my answer.
I wriggled, trying to break his hold on me, but it’s too strong. Despite his smirk, Tobias isn't playing with me. He leans down licking at the mating mark he left and I moan before biting my lip. The bastard isn't playing fair.
"Come on, let yourself feel good." He licks it again, gently biting at it.
He holds me down with one hand, and with the other he thrusts a finger inside of me.
"Already wet for me, too." He grinds his erection against me.
"I think it's time I got to enjoy just what you were giving Theo.
" He glances over his shoulder at the vampire and smiles.
"What do you say? Should we drown her in pleasure as we both fuck her?
She was planning on running away from us, both of us. "
Theo's eyes turn a darker shade of green, the smile on his lips fading away. "She was," he admits, voice soft, almost breaking.
Tobias turns his attention back to me, biting harder at my mark and thrusting a second finger inside of me. "Give in," he orders, a growl to his voice.
"Fuck you," I whimper.
He chuckles. "That's exactly what's happening here. I'm sorry it has to be this way." He stuck a third finger in, stretching them out and watching my expression before he nibbles at my mate mark again.
The wave of pleasure threatens to suck me under. I thrash my head, trying to hold onto the slim thread of sanity I have. "You're a bastard, Tobias," I moan, biting my lip.
