Chapter 66: Jericho

I snickered at her.

"If you think you can, love. You're more than welcome to try."

I felt the energy in the room shift as she gave me a feral grin.

"Challenge accepted my dear mate. Deke… grab Jer for me would ya?"

"What?! NO! That's not fair!"

I took off running but only got as far as the hallway before Deke caught up to me and grabbed me and threw me to the floor. It knocked the wind out of me but as Deke lifted me over his shoulders in a fireman's carry and started up the stairs, I started to thrash around and almost got free when I felt a hard slap to my ass.

"Behave, Jer. The more you fight the longer I'm gonna have to restrain you."

"Zoey. Please. This isn't dignified. Fuck. Let me down, Deke."

"Nope. No can do, Jer. Boss's orders."

"Fuck you man. Just… fuck you."

"Just consider it payback for the marshmallow teddy bear shit."

I growled and tried to throw myself off Deke's shoulders again but froze when I felt a hand slide between my body and Deke's shoulder, caressing my balls. I swallowed as I was instantly hard.

"Baby. Please. I don't need to feel his cock against my back. At least let me get to where I can dump him in the playroom."

I looked back and saw Ash and Zoey laughing at Deke's disgusted tone. Grinning, I bobbed my hips up and down. 

"I don't know, Deke. I bet I could get off this way."

Deke gave a fierce growl and handed the key to the playroom to Ash.

"Go open that door before this fucker goes through it instead."

Ash hurried to open the door and once it was open Deke heaved me from his shoulders and across the room. I was happy the floor was padded as I landed with a thump and rolled into a wall with a bang as my head hit the trim. I rolled onto my back with a groan, my hard on gone for the moment. Fuck that hurt!

"Deke! You didn't have to throw him!"

"Yes I did, baby. Fucker was dry humping my shoulder."

I opened my eyes and saw Zoey's mouth drop open. I snickered at the outrage on Deke's face and the shock on Zoey's. I heard Ash choke before he roared with laughter. I joined him and together we cackled like a bunch of loons.

"What the fuck is wrong with you people?" Deke just shook his head at us as his lips lifted in a smile.

"Well, my sinful marshmallow. I say you should get some justice then. Can you grab Jer while I grab some cuffs?"

My eyes widened. Fuck! She was serious about the bench?! I rolled and tried to scramble to my feet when Deke grabbed me by the waist and slung me face first down on the bench. My moment of shock meant Zoey was able to get cuffs around each wrist and cuffed me to the bench. I yanked on the cuffs and felt them bite into my wrists a little, but they weren't giving without seriously hurting me and doing that would distress my mate. I was stuck. 

"Ok guys. Very funny. Now let me up." Silence. "Please?" Still silence. "Oh, come on. It was all in good fun I promise. Please…. Zoey? Please?"

I felt her hand slide over my ass, and I froze. I hadn't been at anyone's mercy like this before, and I wasn't sure if I liked it or if I was gonna freak out. Or a mix of both. Part of me was anxious to see what my mate was going to do and part of me was excited about it. I shivered as I felt Zoey's breath against my neck as she murmured in my ear.

"It's play time, my mate."
