Zeev POV
"Ok, get him in the tub and get that blood washed off him. I'll get Josh. Sands, can you check on Harlee for me?" I sighed.
"Who put you in charge?" Sniffed Ash.
"Oldest Bonded-means he's in charge of the rest of us. I.e. he gets to choose who gets how much soul in the end, of course, we all know none of us are." Sands dropped a hand on Ash's shoulder and winked. "Or at least, he tries to be in charge." Ash scoffed at that and then carried Josh's father's limp body to the bathtub. I sighed again and rubbed the back of my neck. I felt sore and achy all over. Harlee had been right about Devil's traps. I broke out of the first one easily enough, but if it hadn't been for Sands... I cracked my neck and opened the bedroom door.
"Josh buddy, your dad's here. He's still unconscious, but Sands healed him. It'd be good if you were there for him when he woke up. He's in bad shape buddy, and I'm not sure he'll take too well to waking up surrounded by Demons." I murmured. Josh was laying in our bed and didn't bother to look at me.
"How bad is it?" He asked emotionlessly. I rubbed the back of my neck again where the muscles were tense and sore. I needed to feed...
"Sands did what he could, but your dad lost a leg, and they cut off a few fingers. He was almost down a kidney. Sands can only heal what tissue remains, they were cutting him up for parts when we got there." I winced. There was no easy way to say this. "Psychologically man, he's destroyed." I sighed and sat on the edge of the bed. "I'm so sorry Josh, you didn't deserve this." Harlee's smell enveloped me from the sheets, intensifying my hunger. I either needed her or someone's soul. NOW. I clenched my jaw, I was trying to be sympathetic with Josh. I heard Josh suck in an unsteady breath.
"I'll be there in a second. I just need a minute to get myself together first." Josh told me, sitting up slowly. I nodded.
"He's in the bathroom right now. They're washing him off." I laid a hand on Josh's shoulder then left the room to find Harlee.
Harlee POV
Josh's father was a mess. I had no respect for the guy, but I still felt horrible for him as I watched Ash gently wash him off. Ash cradled the man's head like a newborn's and I immediately dropped a hand to my stomach. Ash was going to be excellent with the baby. Ash looked up at me with a sad smile, then continued softly rubbing down the man's flesh. I winced as Ash lifted the hand with the missing fingers, the scars were a fresh, jagged, angry red. I turned away and nearly ran into Zeev. He gripped me by the arms and quickly ushered me into the new nursery, kissing me urgently.
"Harlee, I'm sorry, I.." He began, but I laid a finger on his lips.
"I can feel it. Will this be enough or do you need to hunt?" I asked softly, feeling the raw hunger pulsing through our link.
"This should be ok, I just need to top up after being stuck in that blasted trap." Zeev kissed me deeply again, tugging at my shirt.
"What about Ash?" I gasped when Zeev let my mouth free again. Zeev growled lightly.
"If Ash needs you, Ash will have to let you know, I don't have time to wait." Zeev replied.
"Ash could use a little energy too." Ash said from the doorway with a slight grin. Ash made sure to lock the door behind them and came over to where Zeev had me pinned against a wall. "Let me help with that." Ash purred, and between the two of them, I was quickly stripped.
"Josh and his father?" Zeev growled at Ash, and ran his hands down my thighs.
"Together in the bathroom with Sands. Better keep things quiet in here." Ash laughed softly, then pulled me down to the floor, kissing me deeply. The carpet underneath me was thick and soft, but Ash and Zeev didn't give me time to concentrate on it. Zeev quickly rolled me over on my back, he cupped my stomach with his large hands, kissing it gently.
"Mine." He whispered softly, then moved downwards, parting my thighs. I wiggled slightly, but Ash gripped my arms and covered my mouth to swallow my moans. Zeev's rough tongue created friction that sent sparks throughout my body. I was bucking quickly, my hips moving against Zeev's face as he teased and tormented me to release. Ash groaned and rolled me to my left side. Zeev lifted my leg and held it out of his way, entering me swiftly and roughly, desperate to form the connection between us that his body craved. I cried out and Ash swallowed the sound with a moan. Ash slid down to lay behind me, hands roving over my stomach, breasts, between my thighs, as they kissed and nibbled on my neck, shoulders and back. I could feel Ash's arousal and I thought for a moment they might try something, but I heard them chuckle.
"Not unless you want me to Harlee. Or Zeev." Ash laughed their magical laugh. I heard Zeev's growl and then felt him begin to tremble, I knew he was close to release. I could feel my own body react to that knowledge as Ash's cool fingers began to stroke between my thighs and suddenly we both climaxed in a throbbing rush that had my body trembling even as Ash pulled me closer to position themself to enter me. I rocked my hips back as Ash's body connected with mine and tried not to moan when Zeev sealed his lips to mine. Ash moved their hips in a rolling wave that nearly caused me to climax immediately and I reached back to grab Ash's hair while their lips brushed my neck again. Zeev let his hand glide between our bodies to rub insistent circles until I was rocking between the two of them, spasming so hard I thought my back would break. When it was all over, Zeev was massaging the stretched skin of my stomach while Ash went after the sore muscles in my lower back. I moaned and Ash giggled.
"I think our Mistress likes this just as much." Ash commented. Zeev hummed.
"Are you two.. alright?" I asked. My heartrate was finally calming down and I felt I could speak again.
"I could use a little more, but can wait until we have less.. company." Zeev remarked unhappily. Ash agreed.
"You know you're going to have to help me up, right?" I said eyeballing them and then my stomach. Ash giggled.
"You've barely got a belly yet, just wait." Ash teased. I groaned.
Zeev POV
"I think we're gonna take some time and go somewhere and stay for a while. Like a vacation." Josh said to us. Sands nodded sympathetically and Harlee reached across the small island counter top to clasp his hand.
"You still have Zeev's Mark. If it comes to it, call us." Harlee said softly. That, I wasn't expecting. Not after her recent thoughts on how to use the Mark to our advantage if he betrayed us, but then again, a lot had happened recently.
"Do you want Zeev or I to take you?" Ash offered but Josh quickly shook his head.
"No, no offence. We don't want anybody to know where we're going." Josh stammered.
"That's understandable." Sands said soothingly.
"What about your mom? Your sister? You know what, never mind, none of my business. Do you need anything from us?" Harlee asked.
"Can I borrow your phone?" Josh asked hesitantly.
"Here-she still won't buy a replacement, but you can borrow mine." Ash pushed a smartphone with a custom green and black case into Josh's hands. "It's got an unlimited plan, so take your time, do what you gotta." The boy walked out of the house to place his call.
"Do you think he'll be alright?" Harlee asked, a protective hand placed on her stomach.
Harlee POV
I watched Josh and his father get into an old, beat up, sports car with a frown. My hand was resting on the swelling of my stomach. I realized I felt a little.. protective.. of Josh. He and his father had stayed with us for a week, and though his father was still an asshole, both man and boy were mentally damaged and broken badly. I wished I could fix them somehow. Zeev wrapped his arms around my ribs and rested his chin on my head.
"You can't save everyone Harlee." He said softly. Ash walked up and wrapped an arm around my waist as well, leaning their head on my shoulder. I sighed. The love and comfort surrounding me inside our link, outside of it, was almost overwhelming, and made me ache even worse for Josh, knowing he had lost this feeling of safety.
"No, but it doesn't stop me from wishing." I replied. Sands' hand settled on my shoulder as the car drove into the distance.
"Will you be ok? Harlee?" Sands asked softly.
"Yeah, I think it's just hormones. Motherly instincts kicking in." I joked weakly. "I know you've got to get back to you know, Angel stuff." I waved a hand vaguely to indicate his Angel of Death duties. "You've been hanging out here an awful lot this week." Sands made a soft noise of assent and hesitated a moment before kissing my head and then disappearing.
"It's not just me right-he's definitely getting more handsy?" I asked, shocked. Ash let loose a golden peal of laughter.
"I said it before. He's not immune to desire, and boy does that body of his have the hots for you." Ash snickered.
"Ash! He's an Angel!" I scolded.
"And? Sam was! Zeev was! Ask either of them to bed you, see how fast they snatch you up! I'm an Incubus, pumpkin, I do lust for a living." Ash purred.
"Don't 'pumpkin' me-you're the one that tastes like it.." I snapped my mouth shut quickly as Ash's laugh rang out again.
"Interesting how you equate Zeev and I with your favorite dessert. It's almost like you were always meant to take us both on at the same time." Ash nibbled my ear and there was a low growl in Zeev's chest behind me. "And I think, speaking of taking on Demons, you have at least two Demons that need to be fed." Ash slid their teeth down my neck and I shivered. Zeev stepped backwards, moving us all into the bedroom. He slid his hands down my arms and encouraged me to hold them up while he pulled the hem of my shirt upward. Ash kissed my exposed belly reverentially before unhooking my bra. There was a slight pause before Ash's venom hit my skin, making me buck when it touched my already sensitive breasts. The coolness settled beneath my skin, starting a throbbing ache and I moaned. Zeev slid his hands over my hips, sliding the waistband of my pants down while Ash attacked their next target. A slow lick to my collarbone across their Mark, making me arch back into Zeev, hips already starting to rock. I moaned.
"So this is a torture Harlee session?" I panted, gripping Ash's hair.
"On the contrary. We just haven't had the house to ourselves in a while, so we intend to make good use of it." Zeev murmured against my ear. He nibbled the lobe and let his sharp teeth slide across the tender flesh beneath it. "I saw you feed Sam your blood Harlee." Zeev murmured. "I may have to bite you and taste you myself to balance my jealousy." I shivered. Ash hooked a hand behind my knee and it was only then I realized my lower garments were already puddled on the floor.
"Steady her Zeev." Ash's eyes twinkled as Ash placed my leg on their shoulder.
"What are you...?" I asked as Zeev ran his hand down my arms, gripping my left hand in his before wrapping my right arm in his own about my ribs. Ash slid their tongue up my inner thigh and I squirmed, but Zeev only chuckled, holding me tighter against him. Ash's long, nimble tongue found my clit, leaving behind a slimy trail of venom that slowly absorbed into my sensitive skin. Icy fire quickly set my nerves alight. I yelled and rocked my hips. Ash giggled and blew a torturous breath across me, making me squirm, before driving their tongue into me as well. I felt it circle, slathering the venom as far as possible, then withdrew only to plunge forward again with more of the slippery stuff on their tongue. I squealed and quickly climaxed, at which Ash laughed.
"Now I'll have to start all over." Ash purred wickedly and I groaned. True to their word, Ash's tongue continue the slow torture until every bit of me was clenched and aching, making me writhe and scream. I moaned their names and pleaded with them for release, but was given only a promise.
"Soon, very soon." Zeev purred.
