and consolation for years
of self-condemnation. Idana …succubus. Bane had said the words without
judgment, casually, like someone might reveal her nationality.
    Bane released her nipple and trailed a line of kisses up to
her ear, catching her earlobe gently between his teeth. “And I’m not sure—not
yet—but you may be something else too,” he whispered. Between her knees, Darek
leaned down to taste her. Her vision clouded as his tongue slid between the aching
folds of her pussy. Her hands fisted in his hair. Bane’s voice echoed in her
mind from somewhere far away. “You may be ours .”
    Ours. Lily only dimly registered the word. Her body
was on fire, a need like she’d never imagined pulsing through her veins.
Darek’s mouth and fingers vanished. She cried out in protest and Bane’s hand
replaced Darek’s, stroking, his fingers scissoring and fluttering inside her.
She turned her head, seeking Bane’s mouth. He was there, the heat of his tongue
meeting her own. She had never known hunger like this and they were offering
her a feast. Gratitude welled up in her, bringing tears to her eyes. She heard
the hiss of a zipper, realized that Darek was taking off his jeans. Bane broke
the kiss and she lifted her head to look at Darek, who now stood naked at the
foot of the bed. Lily took in the length and size of his erection, gaped and
met his gaze. It wasn’t as though she had a lot to compare him with, but he
seemed very big to her.
    Darek got on the bed and stretched out on his back on her
other side, opposite Bane. “I won’t hurt you, Lily.” She looked at him
doubtfully.
    Bane nudged her toward Darek. “If you ride him, it’ll be
easier for you the first time.”
    Lily frowned. “What about you?” She didn’t want him to be
left out.
    Bane smiled, unzipping and sliding his jeans off. Unable to
help herself, Lily stared openly at his cock as it sprang free. If she’d been
hoping for a less intimidating option, she was out of luck. Darek rolled on his
side, grasped her hips and lifted her easily on top of him. Lily gasped with
surprise and planted her palms on his broad chest for balance. Carefully, Darek
positioned her slick, wet pussy over his waiting cock.
    “Take it at your own pace, Lily,” he said. Slowly she slid
down over him, taking him in inch by inch. He fit perfectly. Something inside
her—something she’d been holding tightly in check for a very long time—let go.
The relief was beyond words. Her spine relaxed and she dropped her head back,
reveling in the silken heat of him as he filled her so completely she wanted to
shout with joy. She heard Darek groan, a mixture of pleasure and agony, and she
looked down at him.
    Sweat beaded on his brow, his handsome features taut. “God,
your little cunt is so sweet and tight,” he ground out.
    “Mmmm,” she murmured, sliding up and down on him
experimentally. “And you are…” She trailed off. She could swear that red light
was flickering in the back of Darek’s eyes. He dug his fingers into her hips,
holding her still.
    “Be still a second. I don’t want to hurt you,” he said, his
voice desperate. She could see the pain in his features and instinctively
responded.
    “But I want to ride you,” she protested. She’d intended the
words to be mild but her own voice emerged breathy, unfamiliar.
    His cock jerked inside her at her words. “Oh Christ, Lily,”
he hissed.
    Every cell in her body was screaming. “Please, Darek,” she
whispered. Breathing hard, he lifted her hips, sliding halfway out of her, and
then lowered her over his cock with a deliberate, torturous slowness until he
hilted in her. He was watching her carefully. Lily heard plaintive, keening
sounds and realized she was making them.
    “For God’s sake, man, fuck her,” Bane said next to them.
    “Does it hurt?” Darek asked breathlessly.
    She shook her head hard. “Only when you stop.” His fingers
dug into her hips with a bruising force that satisfied
