the position invoked. Suddenly, the idea of submitting to a lover—or in this case both her lovers—had never held more appeal.
She relaxed her muscles, letting David maneuver her into the position he wanted and tucking her head into the protective circle made by Jessica’s arms. Head down, ass up, she waited for David to move.
His hands slid under her, seeking her clit and squeezing. The erotic pleasure-pain rushed through her as she wriggled against her lovers’ grip, trying to avoid the intense sensation. Her breathing stilled, her flesh quivering, her brain short-circuiting as her insides exploded with heat. David thrust into her, grabbing her hips and pulling her back against him.
His hands dug into her flesh as his tempo increased, thrusting harder, faster, demanding her response, demanding her love, demanding her submission. She cried out as a second, more intense orgasm shattered her, and he stilled, pressed hard against the flesh of her ass. Carefully he draped himself over her back, kissed the side of her neck and then kissed his wife.
“I love you both,” he said quietly as he pulled his finally softening cock from Kayla’s body. “Goddess, how I love you both.”
Kayla somehow found the energy to roll off Jessica and onto the pillow beside her. She intended to mumble a reply, but sleep took her so fast, the words may have been part of her dream.

“That was close.” Jessica’s thoughts rang through his mind even as David tried to rein in his rampant desire to claim both of his mates. He shook his head, trying to clear it, as the enzyme played havoc with his normally sensible thought processes.
“I’m sorry.” He didn’t know what else to say. He’d almost claimed Kayla as a Taydelaan, almost ruined her chances of ever being able to have children—human or Sesturian. He still wanted to claim Jessica, even though he knew claiming her now would tie her irrevocably to Kayla.
“Are you going to be okay?”
He nodded, knowing even as he did it, that his wife would sense his true emotions and know he was lying. Hell, the enzyme shouldn’t be producing at all. He had no idea why his metabolism was responding to Kayla this way, and he had no idea how to stop it. It wasn’t supposed to be like this with anyone but their Taydelaan.
Jessica rolled toward him, her warm hand touching the side of his face as she spoke into his mind. “Bite me.” She smiled as she said it, but he could feel the worry in her mind. “If you can’t control the urge, bite me. I want to be tied to Kayla, so the enzyme will make no difference for me.”
“But…” He could feel her determination even before she cut him off.
“I’ve already come to terms with the fact that by loving Kayla we will never have Sesturian children, but if you bite her, she’ll never have human babies either.”
David closed his eyes as the enzyme surged again in his body. Fear and guilt followed, but he grabbed the emotions, twisting them into anger. As rage flooded his mind, he rolled quickly off the bed. Every step took him further away from the women he loved, but if he didn’t get this problem under control, he could fuck up all of their lives.
He barely had the presence of mind to drag on clothes before he grabbed the car keys and left the building.
Chapter Five
Jessica tracked David’s emotions until he moved out of her range. A part of her still ached to hold him, but she realized on a very sensible level it was better for him to put some distance between them, a least for now. It wasn’t the first time he’d used anger to overrule all other emotion, and she supposed it wouldn’t be the last.
Kayla slept peacefully beside her, hopefully unaware of David’s turmoil. If she had really been their Taydelaan, she would have been as connected to both of them as Jessica and David were to each other, although if she’d been their Taydelaan they wouldn’t be dealing with any of this anyway.
Jessica watched Kayla
