Page 103 of Brutal Reign
By the time we break apart, the song’s halfway over and the dance floor has cleared out around us. People are staring, but I can’t find it in me to care. River Jacobsen ismine, and it’s about time everybody fucking knew it. I’m taking a page out of Seb’s book for once and living in the moment. I can deal with the consequences tomorrow.
“Come on,” I growl, my arm tightening around River’s waist as I guide her back with me toward the DJ setup.
Seb’s standing behind the table looking like a total tool with the headphones halfway off his ears, frowning down at the laptop screen. His gaze lifts as we draw closer, lips spreading into a smug smile as I lead River around to his side.
“Get outta the way, I need to throw on a playlist,” I say, waving a hand.
He pulls off the headphones, still grinning like an idiot as he tosses them onto the table and steps aside, allowing me to move in and take his place. He immediately gravitates toward River, sliding his hands into the back pockets of her jeans and bending down to steal a kiss while I get the playlist set up and fade into the first song.
“Alright, let’s go,” I snap, coming up behind River and banding an arm around her waist to pull her back against me.
“Where are we going?” she asks breathlessly.
“Upstairs,” Seb answers, sliding me a conspiratorial smirk.
Excitement sparks in River’s eyes as she grabs for both of our hands, taking the lead and tugging us toward a nearby exit door. It just so happens to be the same one the three of us used the last time we partied here together, so I already know where it leads.
We climb the stairs two at a time, River giggling as Seb swats her ass on the way up, the two of them engaging in a silly little game of keep-away. When we emerge on the second floor,Riv immediately goes for the closest door, testing the knob and finding that it’s locked.
Turning back around with a frown, she dives for the door on the opposite side of the hallway.Also locked.
“Try that one,” I urge, pointing to the door with the number 209 etched on it.
River rushes that way and reaches out to twist the knob, the door popping open. “How’d you know?” she gasps excitedly, glancing back at me.
I shrug a shoulder. “Lucky guess.”
River disappears through the doorway with a giddy laugh, Seb and I exchanging glances before following her inside. Because while she might not remember this room, we sure as hell do.
Upon entering, I realize it looks just like it did the last time we were in here, the sparse interior bathed in the glow of the moon. There’s noticeably less dust, though, which must mean they’ve started cleaning up the lodge in preparation for renovations. Can’t say I’m mad about that. The dingy comforter has been stripped off the bed, and I step over and drop down to sit atop the crisp white sheets.
River rests back against the dresser, her fingers curling over the edge at either side of the hips as she glances around the room. She’s so fucking beautiful it hurts. Everything inside me is calling to this woman; drawn to her like a moth to a flame. Her lashes flutter as her gaze slides from the window to collide with mine, her breath catching when our eyes lock.
I lift my chin, growling, “Come here.”
She floats across the room toward me, looking like a damn vision in the moonlight as she approaches and steps in between my spread knees, resting her hands upon my shoulders. Sliding my own hands around the backs of her thighs, I lift her up onto my lap, guiding her to straddle my waist. “I think it’s Seb’s turnto watch for a change, don’t you?” I murmur, reaching up to wrap a hand around her delicate throat.
Her lips spread into a devious grin as I rub the pad of my thumb back and forth over her soft skin. “Definitely.”
Diving forward, I seize her lips with mine, plunging my tongue into her mouth as I shove her shirt up her waist. Our mouths part so I can strip it off over her head, then I kiss my way down to her chest, those perfect tits spilling from the cups of her bra as I tug it down and latch my mouth over a hardened nipple. River throws her head back with a breathy gasp as I nip the stiff bud between my teeth, sliding a hand behind her back to unfasten the clasp of her bra.
“Ugh, you guys are killing me,” Seb groans, and I flicker a glance his way to see him gripping his dick through his jeans, watching us with lustful heat burning behind his gaze.
I release her nipple with a pop, lips sliding into a smirk as he meets my eyes. “Then get over here and help me get her clothes off.”
He immediately springs into action, closing the distance between us in two long strides. Wrapping his arms around her waist, Seb pulls River up to stand, kissing the side of her neck as his hands drop to unfasten her jeans. He starts shoving them down her hips, and I lean forward to help him strip the denim off her, guiding her to step out of them. Trailing my hands back up her bare legs, I hook my thumbs in the thin waistband of her skimpy black panties, goosebumps pebbling up on her skin as I drag them down her thighs.
As a shifter, I’ve seen my fair share of naked bodies, but River’s gives me pause every time. From her long tan legs to her round ass and full tits, every inch of her is fuckingperfect. Sitting back, I take a second to admire the sight of her before standing up to get rid of my own shirt and jeans. Then I dropback onto the edge of the bed, motioning for Seb to pass her back my way.
For a second, I’m not sure he’s going to. He squeezes her tits beneath his palms, glaring at me as he sucks on the side of her neck, undoubtedly leaving his mark. But then his hands slide down to her waist, lips leaving her neck as he urges her forward, back onto my lap.
River’s knees press into the bed on either side of my thighs as she straddles my waist, my lips locking with hers once more. Distantly, I register the rustle of Seb’s clothing as he undresses, but then River slides her hand between us and dips it beneath the waistband of my boxers, my brain short-circuiting when her lithe fingers wrap around my shaft. I groan into her mouth as she begins stroking her hand up and down, my cock thickening in her palm.
My thighs tense beneath her as she starts working me faster, her lips leaving mine to trail down the side of my neck. She licks and nips her way across my tattooed chest, then slides back off my lap, sinking to her knees in front of me and yanking my boxers down. My hard cock springs free, bobbing in front of her face as she licks her lips and gazes up at me demurely, taking it in her hand again and guiding the tip to her lips.
“Fuck,” I grunt, body jolting as River opens up to take me into her hot little mouth. I sink a hand into her hair, biting my lip to stifle a groan as she slides down, swallowing my dick until it bumps against the back of her throat.
“How’s her mouth feel?” Seb asks hungrily.
