The Summoning [Dragon's Lair 2] by Seraphina Donavan

it the previous evening, but they
all knew it would be some time before they made a decision. The club was
important to them. It had allowed them the freedom to explore the human aspects
of their nature in a way that living at the clan compound never had and never
would.
    The isolation was also a factor.
They had come to love New Orleans and thought of it as their home, but duty and
honor were apparently an important aspect of their culture, and having been
accepted back into the fold by Alphonse, they felt compelled and grateful for
the opportunity to take up their place in the clan once again. Taking a sip of
her coffee, Lilly contemplated what life at the compound would be like. She
knew that she would be happy anywhere, as long as they were together.
    “You’re deep in thought,”
Philippe said, folding his large frame into one of the wrought iron chairs. He
snatched one of the beignets from her plate and wolfed down the sweet treat.
    “Is nothing sacred? You should
know better than to steal pastries from a woman, Philippe.”
    He leveled a challenging stare
at her. “Are you going to punish me?”
    She might. Their sexual
relationship continued to grow and change. Lilly had always been more
comfortable in a submissive role, but she was learning from them how important
it was to explore the boundaries of pleasure and pain from both sides, to both
give and receive. She had begun to experiment with that, spanking them, binding
them, and taking her pleasure from their bodies while denying them their own,
at least initially. Control was a heady thing, and she’d come to realize that
she liked it.
    “Are you putting in a request?”
she challenged back.
    “Always. Take me upstairs right
now, tie me up, and show me what a bad boy I’ve been,” he answered playfully
then planted a sugary kiss on her lips.
    “Remy won’t be home for hours,”
she protested. “You know the rules. Unless one or the other of you is out of
town, we wait until we can all play together.”
    “I have a feeling Remy may be
coming home earlier than you expected.”
    Lilly wanted to ask how, but
when she heard the car door, she stopped. Her connection to them was strong,
but having witnessed them take dragon form, she understood now that, while they
may have two human bodies, they were always one being. There was a connection
between Remy and Philippe that would always be stronger than her connection to
them. She’d learned to live with it, as it so often worked in her favor. It was
no wonder that being made love to by both of them was so incredibly satisfying.
Every movement, every stroke was calculated to wring the most pleasure from her
body and from one another.
    When the door opened behind her,
she recognized Remy’s footfalls on the floorboards. “Philippe is asking to be
punished,” she said.
    “Then by all means, let’s go
upstairs for your next lesson,” Remy answered, leaning down to kiss Lilly’s
neck, his tongue tracing the faint lines of the mark he’d left behind.
    “No more lessons, “ she
answered. “I’ll handle the punishment, and you will sit back and enjoy the
show.”
    Remy’s cock hardened painfully
at the thought. Watching Lilly dominate Philippe, to spank his perfect ass and
breach every taboo she’d ever held, was unlike any experience he’d ever had. “Gladly,
my darling. I can’t think of anything I’d like more... except perhaps to be the
one who is being punished. But there’s always tomorrow.”
    Lilly smiled. “And the day
after. What we have has no expiration date.”
    “Let’s not go upstairs,” Remy
said. “I want to see your gorgeous body here in the light. I want the entire world
to hear you screaming when we make you come.”
    “That’s an offer I can’t
refuse... but don’t think that allows you to avoid your spanking later,
Philippe.”
    Philippe lunged forward,
capturing her lips in a hard, bruising kiss. When he pulled back, he said, “I
don’t want to avoid it; I want to
