All Wrapped Up: Price of Passage Read online

  “Understood, sir.” Traborn didn’t miss the hint of amusement in his first officer’s reply.

  Scanning open the privacy panel, Traborn motioned his guests inside. Somewhere along the way someone had removed Ivy’s boots. No wonder he hadn’t been able to hear her in the corridor.

  “Would you like something to drink?”

  Ivy glanced at Kade, guilt shining in her gaze. “Yes, please.”

  Glad for the distraction, Traborn moved to the nutritional dispensary and filled three glasses with dry red wine. He handed one to Kade, then retrieved the other two. “How long was Kade on your ship?”

  “You’ll have to ask him. We discovered him in one of the cargo bays shortly before you attacked.”

  Her words rang true, so why did she look guilty as hell? He turned his gaze on Kade. “Did you know each other before?”

  “We were getting to know each other when you arrived.”

  “Ah, that explains a lot.” Again the oddest mixture of jealousy and fascination twisted through Traborn. “How far into your acquaintance had you gotten?”

  “Why does this matter to you? It has nothing to do with our deal.” Ivy gulped down half her wine and averted her face.

  He ignored her outburst and stared at Kade. “Did you fuck her?”

  “I would have, but you arrived.”

  There was no apology in his tone. Kade drained his glass and set it aside. Why were they both so thirsty? Or were they washing the taste of cum out of their mouths? Traborn’s momentary fascination was extinguished by a sudden surge of jealousy. “Did you lick her pussy or did she suck your cock?”

  “Traborn!”

  “Both.” Again Kade’s response was calm and unapologetic. Traborn wanted to beat the shit out of him, then fuck Ivy over and over until… If he couldn’t handle the answers, he shouldn’t have asked the questions.

  “Undress each other.”

  Traborn spotted a bundle at the foot of his bed and smiled. He’d asked Shiilok to gather certain items from Ivy’s cabin, but he hadn’t been sure if his first officer had succeeded. Anticipation unfurled within him, hot and heavy, exhilarating. Traborn lifted the bundle to the corner of the mattress and looked inside. Oh, yes. This was perfect. He sat and pulled off his boots as he watched the others undress.

  Ivy slipped Kade’s jacket off his shoulders, baring his body to the waist. Traborn studied Kade’s sculpted torso and well defined arms. He’d already kicked off his shoes and loosened the lacing at the front of his pants. Traborn’s palms itched and his cock throbbed. She pushed Kade’s pants past his hips, revealing his erect cock. Traborn preferred women to men, but Kade was unusually attractive.

  Kade stood before Traborn naked, their gazes locked. “Would you like to touch me?”

  Annoyed that Kade had asked before he could take the initiative, Traborn pushed to his feet. He circled the younger man, taking in the utter perfection of his body. “What is this?” A deep scar marred the center of his right shoulder blade. It couldn’t be a random scar. The mark had a distinct pattern, like a logo or insignia.

  “Each novice is branded with the Pleasure Guild’s crest when they complete the basic training of a Vontralirian.” There was definite pride in Kade’s tone.

  Ivy leaned around Kade with obvious interest, so Traborn motioned her near. “Bluz told me the Pleasure Guild branded their employees. I couldn’t believe it.” She lightly ran her fingertips over the mark. “Didn’t it hurt?”

  “I welcomed the pain.” He sounded almost insulted by the question. “The mark will be with me forever, a testament to my achievements.”

  Traborn hid his smile. Branding was one of the most extreme forms of submission. Whether Kade knew it or not, he had already been introduced to the Dom/sub lifestyle. Tucking the fact away in the back of his mind, Traborn continued his inspection. Kade’s wide shoulders tapered to rippling abs and well shaped legs. Long and distinctly arched, his cock stood proud and erect.

  “And this?” Traborn ran his thumb over a similar scar barely visible on the inside of Kade’s thigh.

  Rotating his leg so Traborn could see the scar better, Kade said, “That is my individual brand. There is no other like it.”

  The second scar spelled out Kade’s name in a stylized script. “And when is a Vontralirian given his individual brand?”

  “When their training is complete and their skill set established.”

  After caressing Kade with his gaze, Traborn ran his hands over his shoulders and across his chest. “Have you ever been fucked by a man?” Traborn wrapped his fingers around Kade’s shaft and pumped as he waiting for the answer.

  With his eyes half closed and his chest heaving, Kade shook his head. “I was employed by the potentate to pleasure one of his wives. He frequently watched us, but he never touched me.”

  Enjoying the contrast of soft skin and marble hard flesh, Traborn continued to stroke him. “Do you find my touch arousing or is it just the situation?”

  Kade groaned. “I find you arousing.”

  Traborn accepted the statement with a nod and moved back to the bed. “I want Ivy naked too.”

  Her face was flushed and she unconsciously licked her lips. Had watching him touch Kade excited her? It sure as hell had excited him! His own cock was harder than it had ever been, pressing uncomfortably against the front of his pants.

  Kade moved behind Ivy, momentarily robbing Traborn of the pleasure of his naked body. Kade unfastened the front of her uniform top and parted the material, displaying her breasts for a moment before he pulled the garment off her shoulders.

  Though still lean and fit, time had changed her shape. Her breasts were a bit fuller, the nipples a darker rose. Why were the details still fresh in his mind after all this time? Her image never left you. She was always there in the back of your mind.

  “Bring her here.”

  Kade drew her arms behind her back and steered her toward the foot of the bed. Traborn spread his legs, waiting until she stood between his thighs before he touched her. Velvety soft and warm, her skin enticed him, lured him onward. He hooked his thumbs beneath her breasts and pressed his face between.

  Memories of her smile and the lingering sweetness of her scent had kept him alive during those torturous years on Limbaria’s penal moon. He’d dreamed of the day he’d hold her again, imagined the firm grip of her pussy as he filled her to capacity. But the Federation needed a phantom, a shadow warrior who could strike without warning and then disappear. They needed a ghost. He was dead to her either way, so he’d accepted their offer and escaped from hell itself.

  He avoided her gaze, not willing to reveal how much touching her affected him. Her nipples were already hard. Catching one between his teeth, he nipped her then suckled, with greedy abandon.

  It wasn’t enough. He needed the taste of her cream on his tongue and her cries echoing in his head. Grasping her waist, he urged her onto the bed. She straddled his hips. “Up. I want your pussy.”

  Kade helped her stand on the bed and steadied her as Traborn indulged his hunger. He lifted one of her legs to his shoulder, rocking her back against Kade. With her arms still clasped behind her back, she was off balance and vulnerable. Traborn traced her slit with his fingertips, making her wiggle and moan. Her folds already gleamed with her arousal. He pushed deeper and bit his bottom lip. Hot and wet, her cunt welcomed his fingers and encouraged a more intimate exploration.

  Lifting her thigh higher and angling her hips, Traborn positioned her for his pleasure. He moved his hand to her ass crease, teasing her with his slick fingers, while his mouth settled against her mound. He parted her with his tongue and sucked gently until her taste filled his mouth. Oh, gods yes! No one tasted like Ivy. No one felt like her or came like her.

  She rocked against his mouth. He knew what she wanted, what she needed. Thrusting his fingers back into her core, he circled her clit with his tongue. She squeezed his fingers over and over. Still he refused to move. He granted her fullness, b
ut withheld the sweet slide and gentle friction. Speeding the circular motion of his tongue, he triggered her release. She cried out and shuddered against him as she rode the powerful waves.

  If not for Kade’s tall body behind her, Ivy would have collapsed. She panted, amazed by the sizzling warmth leaping along her nerve endings. Traborn released his hold on her and Kade lifted her into his arms. She snuggled against his warmth, content and sleepy.

  “I had some of your toys brought over from your ship.”

  Traborn’s comment brought her head up off Kade’s shoulder. “What are you talking about?”

  Licking the last of her cream off his lips, he pulled the bundle next to him onto his lap and chuckled. “You’ve always been fond of toys. I made sure you wouldn’t have to do without them.”

  She wiggled out of Kade’s arms and tried to grab the bundle away from Traborn. “One of your men searched my cabin for sex toys?”

  “They weren’t hard to find. You have so many.”

  “Why does that surprise you?” His amusement chafed and she was unable to hide her annoyance. “I command a crew full of men. A sexual relationship with any of them would create complications I can’t afford.”

  “So you sacrificed pleasure?” His pity was even more irritating than his amusement.

  “I managed for myself just fine.”

  “Most of these don’t even look like they’ve been used.”

  “They’re disposable, you ass.”

  She made another try for the bag, but he easily moved it out of reach. “Kade, get the wrist cuffs out of the nightstand. I think she’s enjoyed freedom of movement long enough.”

  It was the only thing he’d said so far that didn’t upset her. She’d been disappointed when he released her from the restraints. Kade had guessed that she craved aggression, but only Traborn knew how deep her need for submission ran. Anything but utter surrender wouldn’t satisfy, which was part of the reason she seldom bothered with lovers. How could she accept a man’s domination at night and command him during the day? It was simply easier to keep business and pleasure separate.

  Kade found the cuffs and handed them to Traborn. He gazed at Kade’s bobbing cock for a long moment and then set the cuffs aside. “We’ll get back to these.” He rummaged through the bundle as he said, “Ivy, kneel in front of Kade and suck his cock. Kade, you are not allowed to come until I give you permission.”

  “Yes, sir,” Kade replied automatically. He helped her to her knees and smiled as she offered her mouth. Why hadn’t Traborn instructed her to suck him? She didn’t mind having Kade’s long, thick shaft moving across her tongue, but they’d given each other pleasure on the Chrysalis.

  Traborn moved up behind Kade, a wicked smile bowing his mouth. “Try and relax. Concentrate on Ivy’s mouth.”

  She adjusted the angle of her head, but she still couldn’t see exactly what Traborn was doing. Kade grasped her shoulders, his expression tense and anxious.

  “I’m using lots of lube and this is one of the smallest toys I could find.” Kade rocked forward as Traborn pushed the toy past the younger man’s sphincter. Ivy sucked and swirled her tongue, trying to distract him. “How’s that feel?”

  “Odd. It only stung for a moment.”

  “Good. Now you move. Push into Ivy’s mouth, then back onto the toy. Go as fast or as slowly as you need to, but you still don’t have permission to come.”

  Kade panted, his expression beginning to relax as he found a pleasurable rhythm with his hips. His cock throbbed against her tongue and his hands gripped her shoulders. She knew part of what he was feeling. Traborn had initiated her in much the same way. Despite her recent orgasm, her greedy body stirred again.

  “Very good.” Traborn stepped back, pulling Kade with him. Ivy released his cock and looked into Traborn’s eyes as he stepped around the other man. Traborn helped her to her feet and returned to the bed, desire gleaming in his eyes. Unfastening his pants, he pushed them down only far enough to free his erection. He sat on the edge of the bed and spread his legs wide. “Ivy, kneel here before me, and suck me hard. I don’t think poor Kade’s going to last much longer. Kade, you may use her pussy or her ass, but I expect us all to come together.”

  She knelt between Traborn’s legs and spread her thighs wide so Kade could enter her easily. Holding her hips, Kade went down on one knee and rubbed his cock head against her vaginal opening.

  “Now.” Traborn pushed into her mouth as Kade filled her cunt. Ivy shivered. She was sopping wet, but Kade was huge. His thick shaft stretched her to the point of pain. Traborn slapped her ass and her inner muscles fluttered wildly.

  “Fuck!” Kade groaned. “You expect me to last while she’s doing that?”

  “Yes,” Traborn insisted. “I do.” He alternated with slaps and squeezes as she slid her mouth up and down the length of his cock. He used to spank her while she gave him head, but this was amazing. Having Kade moving inside her forced the intensity to a whole new level.

  For long, blissful minutes they moved as one. She arched and swallowed, taking both men as deeply as she could. Traborn squeezed her ass now, allowing the heat to sink into her flesh. Just as Traborn stopped the spanking, Kade reached beneath her and found her breasts, firmly pinching her nipples with each deep stroke. She sucked hard on the tip of Traborn’s cock, desperate for the pleasure hovering out of range.

  “Ready?” Traborn’s tone was strained and quiet. He thrust deep into her throat as Kade drove his full length into her throbbing pussy. Pleasure erupted in blinding, staccato bursts. They cried out in unison. Rhythmic spasms ricocheted between them, building in speed and intensity until they shook together and clung to each other for support.

  Traborn caressed her face as he pulled out of her mouth. She rested her cheek on his thigh and savored his taste, a dreamy smile curving her lips. This felt wonderful, familiar, and soothing.

  “Don’t get too comfortable, sweetheart,” Traborn said. “We’ve barely begun.”

  Chapter Five

  Ivy lost track of her orgasms long before Traborn let her rest. Each climax was a bittersweet reminder of all the wasted years. They should be settled on some Sabrotine outpost right now, perhaps raising a family. Family. She shuddered at the thought. Even the word held unpleasant connotations.

  Maybe outpost life wouldn’t have been right for them, but she belonged with Traborn. Deep in her heart she’d always known.

  Relaxing against a mound of pillows, lazy and content, she watched as the men touched and teased each other. Kade knelt before Traborn, expertly sucking the commander’s cock. Ivy let her gaze wander over the two, amazed by the symmetry of their masculine bodies. Noting the similarities and contrasts, she was struck by the erotic beauty of their unabashed pleasure. Muscles bunched, sinew flexed, and tension rippled along corded abdomens. Smooth, fluid, yet strong and confident, they moved like athletes well conditioned and at the top of their game.

  Taller and more heavily muscled than Kade, Traborn fisted his hands in Kade’s hair as he thrust into the younger man’s mouth. Traborn’s ass clenched and hunger radiated from his rugged features.

  Kade seemed fascinated with the commander’s body. Stroking Traborn’s legs and rolling his balls, Kade explored as Traborn shuttled in and out of his mouth. Kade angled his head and took Traborn deeper.

  “Give me the green one.” It took Ivy a moment to realize Traborn was talking to her. “From the pouch. Lube up the green one, now.”

  She dragged her gaze away from the men and found the toy he’d mentioned, a perfect replica of an erect cock, complete with veins and a bulbous head. Excitement stirred within her. Traborn had allowed her to fuck him with a toy from time to time, but he much preferred doing the fucking. She was sure this was meant for Kade. Still the thought of wielding the dildo sent tingles swirling from her breasts to her clit.

  “May I?” she asked as she liberally smeared the toy with lube.

  Traborn nodded and took a step backward without rel
easing Kade’s head. Drawn off balance by the unexpected maneuver, Kade lowered his hands to the floor. Ivy circled behind Kade, admiring his slim hips and firmly rounded backside. Even his ass was beautiful, she thought with a silly smile.

  Kade made a muffled sound and Ivy looked up. Traborn had drawn out of his mouth, still hard and shiny. She hadn’t meant for him to stop. Feeling a cock slide across her tongue while a toy drove into her ass made her come every time.

  Traborn’s gaze lit with dark, predatory hunger and her body responded with pulsing need. Until now they’d kept everything fairly simple, but the Master had just emerged.

  “Fold your arms against the floor and lower your head.” After an uncertain glance over his shoulder, Kade moved into position. Traborn parted his firm ass cheeks, offering Ivy her target. “There is as much pleasure in being fucked as in fucking. You must learn to embrace this fact before you’re ready for other lessons.”

  Ivy smiled as arousing memories rolled through her mind. Traborn loved having a dildo thrust into his ass while she sucked his cock. He even allowed her to trigger his climax using only a dildo at times. Surrender was every bit as important as control. Though he was a Dom to the marrow of his bones, he refused to forget that fundamental lesson. She circled Kade’s puckered hole with the slippery toy. His cheeks tensed beneath Traborn’s hands, but he didn’t struggle.

  With firm, steady pressure she pushed the toy inward. When only the head had penetrated, Traborn caught her wrist. “Let him adjust, while I get more lube.”

  More lube? She’d used more than enough for… Traborn returned with the tube in one hand, his cock bobbing with each step. This was only the beginning of the lesson. Kade was about to get fucked by the Master. Her pussy clenched and jealousy settled heavy in her heart. She wanted the Master to ram into her, forcing her senses to shatter.

  “Now, slow and steady.” Traborn motioned toward the dildo. “Let him feel the slide.”
