He laughed harder. "Yes, ma'am. Never stand between a pack alfa and her food."
Before I could comment on his choice of words, he thrust into me hard. I yelped in surprise.
"Too much?" He hesitated before moving again.
"No," I purred.
"Good." He thrust again, carefully a few times before seeming to take me at my word and driving into me.
The intensity had me gasping his name, pleasure building in my core. He dropped one of his hands to where we were joined and rubbed at my clit. I clawed at his back, no longer coherent as the intensity built, bringing me right to the edge and leaving me there as he slowed his fingers.
I groaned.
"You can have some patience," he teased.
Unfortunately, it wasn't as easy to break through Allan's control as it was with Doc or Nikolai. I couldn't just bite him and make him give me what I wanted. Before I had to try and get creative, Allan went to work again building me right to the edge. This time he didn't stop, and my orgasm crashed into me, bringing him over the edge at the same time.
Allan held me while my body quaked around him. His face buried in my neck as he kissed me gently.
"Mmmm," I mumbled appreciatively once he set me down.
"Good shower," he agreed. "I'm glad you talked me into taking another one."
I laughed and cuddled into his chest while he wrapped his arms around me.
"We should get you fed, though," he said.
I nodded. "Let me actually get clean and we can head back."
Allan stepped out of the shower. There wasn't room for two if we were actually trying to clean up.
"Remind me to educate Nikolai in the need for larger showers when we rebuild the cabin," I said as I rinsed off the lather.
Allan laughed. "Especially if I get to watch?"
"Hmm, didn't realize you liked that sort of thing."
He shrugged when I glanced at him. "Might learn a thing or two."
I laughed. "We still need to get the pack together for some group activities," I said. "We can bring it up then."
Allan's eyes twinkled at that. He held out a towel when I stepped out from under the faucet. I tried to take it from him, but he gestured me forward, winked, and rubbed me with the towel.
I wanted to melt into a puddle at his feet. I felt so loved.
"Maybe I should get wet again," I said, double meaning intended.
Allan laughed and gently tossed the towel at me. "Later. I already ate and the way your stomach is grumbling is making me hungry again."
Pushing my lips out in a pout, I tried to look upset. He just laughed harder and handed me my shirt.
"Thanks." I dressed and we headed back to the yurt. We passed Doc and Nikolai on the way.
I raised an eyebrow, but they both dragged their feet and I guessed they weren't up to anything but getting clean and making sure they both made it there and back without falling down.
"You two okay?"
Nikolai grumbled in annoyance, something about magic not usually knocking him on his ass, but he nodded.
"Yes, and I'm sure I'll feel better once the sun goes down." Doc sighed.
I brushed my hands across his cool skin. Nikolai had thrown on a shirt, though he claimed that the cold didn't bother him until it was really cold. Doc hadn't bothered. I could really get used to all my guys walking around shirtless.
"You could go with them." Allan winked at me.
"Hey, Nikolai, when we build the showers for the cabin, let's make them bigger," I said, instead of following them.
"Why?" he grumbled out.
Even Doc looked amused at Nikolai's confusion. "I'll fill him in."
Allan and I snickered as we headed for the yurt, the smell of food luring me away.
Ash was seated at the low table, drinking some of Doc's tea when we arrived. Allan pulled me over to sit next to him. "I'll get your plate."
My momentary burst of energy flagged, and I leaned my elbows on the table and buried my face in my hands.
"Are you okay?" Ash put his mug down.
"Just exhausted. I used more magic yesterday than I think I have in my entire life." I wasn't even sure if that statement was really an exaggeration.
He touched my shoulder hesitantly. "I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault the Andersons wanted me. It's not your fault they're a bunch of asshats. It's also not your fault any of this happened. The guys have been telling me this for months now. I'm starting to believe them."
He let his hand fall from my shoulder, but he didn't contradict me.
Allan slid a plate in front of me. Bacon, eggs, toast. Simple but fantastic. I groaned as I dug in.
Munching on some bacon, Allan joined us at the table and Ed sat next to his brother.
Nikolai returned just as I had finished my meal. "I have been properly educated on the need for larger shower." He sounded a little less grumpy than before but still not his normally cheerful self. He helped himself to the food Ed had cooked.
Allan and I traded an amused grin, though Nikolai's expression didn't really give any clues as to how Doc had educated him.
Doc joined us about the time Nikolai finished his food. Allan volunteered to clear the table.
We all sat in silence until Allan rejoined us.
"Ash," Doc said. "What do you want to do now?"
The demon hunched his shoulders and stared at the table. I pushed my shoulder against his.
He flinched, but before I could pull away, he leaned back into me. He probably wasn't used to being touched, at least not kindly.
"I had wanted to return to my plane. I don't think I can. I've been here too long. Unlike a greater demon, who needs a host on this plane, this is my body, and it's been held here too long." He sounded so lost, it broke my heart.
"Ash, you can stay with us as long as you like," Doc said.
Everyone nodded agreement when Ash
