Calling All Heroes, Page 2

  “That’s life.” Mine had spun the moment I meet Aneen in her tiny pale dress with its muddy bottom and two bare feet sticking out. She had smiled at me and I knew the world would never be the same. The red eyes had freaked out the boy I was, but the man I became found them fascinating. I stared into them now, softer in the dull light from the clouds above.

  “But everything’s changed. My mother’s crazy, bent on controlling Otherworld and I’m…” She glanced at her fingers. “Aren’t you scared of me?”

  “No.” Both Alexander and I said at the same time.

  “Aneen, the first time Alexander and I were alone, he bit me, drank my blood, and killed a bunch of guards I thought were my friends. I’m not afraid of him.”

  Alexander snorted.

  “You threw your hands in the air and saved Alexander’s heart from being ripped out. That doesn’t invoke fear. It makes me fall in love with you even more.”

  Aneen blushed and then wrapped her arms around me. “I knew it. I knew you loved me.”

  “That so?”

  “That first time I kissed you when we were twelve. You were so red in the face and you were standing funny. You acted like it was disgusting and forbidden, but the next day you pledged your life to mine. I knew you loved me. I’m not stupid you know.”

  “That I know.”

  “You know what I was thinking.” Alexander sat before us with his legs bent. “You never showed any kind of power before the three of us had sex. Maybe that’s what set you off.”

  Aneen turned a lovely shade of red.

  “You mean her virginity?” Her first time had been between us and it was a moment in time I’d treasure forever. That was my first time with a woman and I think it even affected Alexander because I saw a vulnerability to him that I’d never seen before.

  “She’s been attacked before.” Alexander was saying. “Assassins have been after Aneen her whole life. Why all of a sudden did she….” He splayed his fingers and threw his hand out. “I ain’t never seen anything like that, except maybe in a light storm. There was one up in the high peaks of Dragons every few months when I was a kid.”

  “That’s where you grew up?” Aneen uncurled herself from my side. “Were there dragons?”

  “Not that I saw.” Alexander actually looked uncomfortable about the subject of his childhood. “Back to her virginity.”

  Aneen groaned. “Maybe it was. Maybe it wasn’t. The point is I can now fling light out of my fingers like a light storm.” She threw up her hands. “Why couldn’t I have something useful like flying or fangs or invisibility?”

  “Princess, if you went invisible I don’t think I’d get anything done in life. I’d be too busy trying to find you and fuck you in public places.”

  Aneen sputtered and choked.

  “Classy, Alexander.” I rolled my eyes.

  “Don’t be jealous, Stefen. You’d be right there with me. Admit it.” He shifted to his knees and leaned closer. “Come on. Admit she’s the sexiest woman you’ve ever seen.”

  I glanced at Aneen. “I can’t argue with him there.”

  Alexander grinned. “And you’re the sexiest man I’ve ever seen.” He pressed his lips to mine.

  I’d have blushed if I wasn’t swept up with his mouth on mine. Alexander had been my first sexual encounter. It was on a starlit beach while our boat burned from some very angry selkies. I thought then I was falling for him, but the more I got to know him, the more I realized just how hard and fast I was falling.

  “Aneen, I’m going to show you just how I make Stefen scream.”

  Dullahan’s dick! “The Fear Gorta.” I blurted as Alexander began kissing along my prickly jaw.

  “Is in the fog not up here and we have a few hours to waste.” He started kissing down my neck.

  “Sleep…” I murmured and followed that up with a groan. His lips felt so good on me. Alexander was sliding his hands under the rim of my shirt and I didn’t protest when he pulled it over my head.

  “You want to sleep or get your cock sucked?”

  Aneen was blushing so hard, but she moved closer. She nibbled her lower lip, watching intently as Alexander rubbed his palms over my flat nipples.

  I didn’t have a choice. There was no way I’d be able to sleep now. “But … we have to keep watch.” What if the queen’s guards caught up with us? What if some other creature watched from the shadow, patiently waiting for the right time to strike?

  “Nothing else moves in this fog.” Alexander kissed my chest, licking my left nipple and then the right. “Now, shut the fuck up.”

  I groaned and pulled Aneen close for a kiss. Her lips were delicate and soft beneath mine. I was careful not to hurt her despite the growing need inside me. “Alexander!” He cupped my crotch, rubbing his palm in circles over my swelling erection. My head fell back as the lust made my head as foggy as our surroundings. Alexander untied my belt and my sword clanked as he placed it beside us.

  “Lift your ass, handsome.”

  I did, groaning as my pants slid over my erection and to my knees. My dick was out there for all to see. My balls were tucked under. The length was still thickening in anticipation of what was to come. Aneen had only seen me naked once and she’d been too busy enjoying her first time becoming a woman to really take a look. Now, her gaze was steadily trained on my erection. The foreskin was pulled back slightly, revealing my slit and rounded tip.

  Alexander licked his lips and rubbed his hands along my thighs. “He is gorgeous.”

  She nodded, nibbling on her lower lip again.

  Alexander slowly moved his hand further up and then wrapped it around my shaft.

  “Alex … ander.” That felt so good. My whole body was attuned to the pleasure as he slid his hand to the base of my cock. The curly dark hairs there were crushed under his hand.

  “Now, what I like to do is get him all excited with my hand first.” Alexander tugged on my dick. “Only a few times, because you don’t want him to cum too fast.” He stroked me twice. “Playing with the foreskin is nice for me.” Alexander rubbed his thumb over my slit and then rolled it around my extra flesh.

  My toes curled and I groaned.

  Alexander grinned. “Then you give him a good tongue lashing.”

  “Dullahan’s dick.” I tensed up as Alexander lowered and licked at my tip. Colors exploded behind my closed eyes. I had no idea when I’d closed them and thought was getting harder to hold onto as he suckled. My toes curled and my hips thrust upward. His tongue dipped into my foreskin sending shock waves of pleasure up my spine. Sputtering and half groans tore out of my mouth as he gave a soft suck.

  “Can … can I try?” Aneen’s voice was soft and shy.

  Thinking of her beautiful mouth on my cock made me want to explode right there and then. I opened my eyes just as she lowered her head and placed a kiss on my slit. “Oh, hell, you’re going to kill me.” Alexander held my dick as Aneen licked the tip. She was tentative at first. Her blonde hair falling around her shoulders. The ends tickled my thigh.

  “Salty, isn’t he?” Alexander glanced at me and the grin he had on his face could only be described as evil. Pure evil.

  “Mmm.” Aneen agreed and then her lips enclosed my tip and she sucked.

  “Fuck.” The word came out harsh and loud.

  “Hey, now.” Alexander scolded, “The good guys don’t curse, remember.”

  An old joke that made me want to scream. Instead, I grabbed a handful of his shirt and pulled him in for a kiss. Our tongues collided and played as Aneen pressed kisses along my length. I think my heart may just give in at the rate it was thumping. Alexander started stroking me from base to her suckling mouth. “I’m going…” I tried to warn them.

  “He’s going to cum, princess.” He leaned down, kissing her on her cheek. They both hovered over my dick. “Open wide and swallow as much as you can. It’ll taste salty and creamy.” Alexander started tugging on my shaft.

  My head fell back, but I quickly jerked for
ward so I could watch.

  He stroked me faster as Aneen licked daintily at my slit. Then my whole body burst into a million pieces. Sounded painful, felt like pure joy. I came hard, my abs tightening, my legs falling open, my lungs filling with air as I gasped. White sprayed from my slit and as Aneen tried to taste, Alexander kept stroking me. The pleasure was just insane. How could a man possibly function during this? I groaned and grabbed Alexander’s wrist to stop him. The pleasure was too intense and Aneen was licking the drops from my cock like it was the last water for days. My whole body went limp and I fell back against the half wall.

  “I think we broke him.” Alexander said as he kissed my jaw.

  “You did.” I managed to say.

  Alexander chuckled against my ear and then I heard the smack of mouths. Peeling my eyelids open showed them kissing. I watched as he used his vamp speed to swing her into his arms and then lay her on the stone floor. He ravaged her lips with his. Alexander’s tongue peeked out just before it plunged into Aneen’s mouth. They looked amazing together. It made me smile and shimmy to their side. Alexander lifted Aneen’s peasant dress, growling when he saw her pale thighs and the lack of underclothing. Even I licked my lips, despite my mind-blowing orgasm just a few moments ago. Her pussy was splattered with blonde hair and her lower lips glistened in the light.

  “I want to feast on you for hours.” Alexander whispered and he dragged the dress past her belly button and exposed her breasts.

  I loved her nipples. They were small and pink and perfect. It made my mouth water to see them bounce as Alexander bunched the dress at Aneen’s neck and then roughly spread her legs. He settled between them and gave her pussy a long lick.

  Aneen gasped and grabbed my hand.

  I kissed her as Alexander showed her lower lips some love. I knew when he licked her clit by the way her head would thrash from side to side. When he stuck his tongue inside her, Aneen’s eyes would go wide. The slurping sounds only spurred me on. I left her lips to move to her breasts. If I only got to see and touch these the rest of my life I would be the happiest man in Otherworld. I squeezed the right one and blew on the left one. Her nipple hardened just before I licked it. I sucked on her breast as gently as I could. Her fingers slid through my hair as a moan drifted through the quiet afternoon.

  Aneen’s grip tightened and then she gasped. “Alexander!” Her whole body squirmed and her skin turned flush as the orgasm ripped through her.

  Dullahan’s dick, she was a sight that would slake me forever. I sucked a little harder on her nipple as I heard the rustle of clothing. With one last lick, I shifted to my side and watched as Alexander wrestled his pants down and revealed his cock. He was wider than me and it made my mouth water. He stroked himself for us, rubbing his palm over the tip and massaging his balls. The nest of blond hair at the base was as light as Aneen’s. They matched down below and the thought made me smile.

  Alexander spread her legs further, showing off her wet pussy. Then he grabbed his dick at the base and rubbed it against her clit. “Think I can get her to come like this?”

  Was he making a bet? Now? A moment after I thought the question, Aneen gasped and came. Her body withered on the stone like a temptress’ dance. She stilled, her legs falling open even further.

  Alexander grinned and revealed his elongated fangs.

  I had no idea if he popped them out of hunger or lust or just to give us another thrill. I rubbed Aneen’s breasts, back and forth as Alexander aimed his tip at her hole. She gasped when he pressed inside. I slithered my hand down her flat stomach and my fingers sunk into her soft pubic curls. I latched my mouth onto that red tipped nipple just as my fingers grazed her clit.

  Aneen let out a moan that would break the sturdiest of men.

  My body gave a jerk as I watched Alexander sliding deeper into her.

  He growled and pushed hard, stabbing her with his shaft.

  Aneen grabbed a handful of my hair and started chanting our names.

  I rubbed her clit, catching touches of Alexander’s cock as he began to slowly move within her. I flicked my tongue over her nipple again and again. Alexander grabbed her hips and leaned forward. His gaze was locked with mine as he penetrated our princess. I rubbed her faster, pinching the spot and hearing her moan. Flick, rub, thrust. All our bodies were in a constant state of motion. Alexander jerked his hips forward hard then threw his head back and bared his fangs to the sky.

  “Alexander!” She came again. Hard. Her legs actually shook. “Stefen!”

  I gave her clit another rub as Alexander pulled me to him by my hair. He slid his mouth along my neck and then bit me. His fangs caused a moment of pain followed by the rush of pleasure. I swear it was like having someone rub my dick right after I had my orgasm. Sensitive. Overwhelming. Blood dripped down my shoulder as Alexander drank his fill. When he pulled back, his lips and chin were smeared with red. He pulled his length out of Aneen slowly and laid beside her. I fell to my side, my hand still lingering between her legs.

  “So much better than sleeping.” Alexander muttered in the quiet, foggy afternoon silence.

  Chapter Two

  What woke me up was lips pressed against my neck. The soft touches slowly moved to my jaw and I opened my eyes to Alexander’s blue irises.

  “I figured that would wake you up. My next try was kissing your dick.”

  I immediately shut my eyes and Alexander chuckled. With a yawn I opened my eyelids to watch as he shifted to the sleeping Aneen. He began kissing her shoulder. Sometime during our nap, Alexander had lowered Aneen’s dress so she was modest and pulled his pants back up. “How long have we been here, wasting any lead we had on the queen’s guards?”

  “About two hours. I woke you the moment the fog started to lift.”

  Aneen took a deep breath and opened her eyes. She blinked a few times, looking half asleep and delectable.

  “Fog’s going, princess.” Alexander kissed her cheek. “I’m going to find us some rainwater to clean up and then we move.”

  I nodded, but didn’t get up. I was tired from the journey and the blood loss wasn’t helping. My stomach was also woefully begging for food. I couldn’t imagine how the princess was handling all this.

  Alexander made his way down the stone stairs.

  Aneen rolled into my side, laid her head on my shoulder and promptly closed her eyes.

  I snorted and laid a hand on her hip. “We really should move.”

  Aneen grumbled something.

  “Fine. I’ll wake you when I hear him coming back up.”

  She kissed my neck and tucked her bare feet under my legs.

  It broke my heart to have to wake her ten minutes later when Alexander trudged up the stairs with a half-broken container of rain water. Aneen and I fumbled around, using some to drink and the rest for a quick bathing. It was no more than twenty minutes later we were walking away from the Hartville Ruins alive and in one piece.

  ****

  “You want to stop now?” Alexander growled the words, glancing at us—a hungry, tired, sad excuse for a war party.

  “It’s pretty obvious the queen didn’t send any guards after us. She probably assumes Aneen would bring the fight to her and she’s probably regrouping at the castle.” I eyed the small stream that rushed through the shade of a dozen different trees. We were staying toward the bottom of the mountain and there was a trail here that seemed to do just that.

  “That’s a lot of probably,” Alexander said.

  “But he’s right.” Aneen sat on a ledge of rock between two large trees with a blooming of green leaves. Alexander had given her his boots because any of his cuts would heal, but she was walking like she was drunk. “And maybe some food?” She asked quietly.

  I knew she was trying to be brave, trying not to complain and I loved her for trying. But I was starving and not so subtle. “The river might have fish.” I tugged my shirt off. “Because some of us have to eat actual food, you know.” I gave him a glance.

  Alexa
nder shrugged almost sheepishly. “Hey, the last time I spent this long with a human was…” He paused and tilted his head. “Shit, I’ve never spent this long with a human. Consider yourself special.” He winked at me.

  I rolled my eyes, toed off my boots and then shimmied out of my pants. I couldn’t go walking around with wet clothes or I’d catch my death. So, naked it was. It’s not like they hadn’t seen me completely nude before. I waded into the stream where it dipped to my knees and then mid-thigh. Bending over, I wiggled my toes and waited for a nibble.

  “I think you should catch fish more often.” Alexander said from the shore. “Your ass looks great.”

  Aneen gave a giggle.

  “Compliments will not get you kissed … everywhere.” My dick was soft from the chill of the water and the exhaustion that plagued me. It hung between my legs defeated and sad. Poor guy. Something nibbled on my toes and I latched onto the fish, but it wiggled free and swam away. Damn.

  “Why don’t you practice while he’s doing that?” Alexander said to Aneen.

  “I’m not sure this is a good place.”

  There was a heavy pause that made me turn around. She was staring at her hands like they were foreign objects now latched onto her.

  “It took me a while to get used to fangs. You can’t be afraid of what you can do, Aneen.” Alexander’s tone was soft and gentle. So unlike his normal stormy voice. He hopped to his feet. “Why don’t you strike that tree over there?”

  She frowned.

  “We know you can shoot light out of your fingers. Let’s conquer that first.” He stepped behind Aneen and placed his hands on her hips. “Come on, princess. Show us those beautiful lights.”

  Aneen frowned but lifted her hands. “Take your hands off me so I can concentrate.”

  Alexander gave a low, cocky chuckle and then stepped back.

  I kept wiggling my toes to entice any creature swimming by, but I shifted slightly so I could watch.

  Aneen shook her hands and held them out. She took a deep breath which sounded shaky to my ears. “I can do this.” She whispered, glanced at me, and I gave her an encouraging nod. She could do this. She had to do this or the war would be over, fast and bloody. Aneen splayed her fingers. Her fingertips lit up only for a moment, the quick light slapped the rock then fizzled out. She licked her lips, narrowed her eyes and tried again. Nothing. “Dullahan’s dick!”
