Charming the Alphas (Hex My Heart, #5) by Talina Perkins Page A

if he didn’t hurry she’d combust. Finally he captured her lips with his. Warm, tender and with just enough lust to send her libido into overdrive. With every pulse of her heart her clit throbbed with a need he pulled from her.
    Marabelle lowered her eyes and fell into the moment. “Give yourself to us, Mara?” Zane broke their kiss and looked into her eyes, every emotion on full display for her to see.
    She took a breath and threaded Zane’s long hair through her fingers absentmindedly. “I heard the healer. What she said.” Eyes level with theirs, Marabelle looked between them both as she confided her fears. “I don’t want either of you to mate with me because you feel you have to.”
    “Know this to be true if nothing else in your entire life, Mara. Our hearts were yours long before tonight. No one is being forced.” She didn’t like the fear she saw in Lucian’s eyes or the thought that she’d put it there.
    Mara wet her lips, and little by little her muscles relaxed into Zane’s strong hold. She tried to swallow, her throat suddenly dry. “Then I do.”
    Lucian leaned back and pulled her with him to recline into the heavily padded couch. Straddling him, her lips a whisper away from his, she had little room for retreat. Zane moved up behind them, slid his hands beneath her sweater and didn’t stop until he had her breasts bared and their weight in his hands. With his thumb and forefinger, he pinched her nipples and tugged, forcing her back to arch. A sudden bolt of energy flourished out from her center, eliciting a deep moan. Stunned from the sensation, she fell back into his arms, trusting he would support her.
    “Mmm. I want to hear that sound when we make you peak.” Lucian slipped a hand beneath her sweater too and stroked a thumb along the sensitive skin beneath her breast and Zane’s hands. The caress created a domino effect. First her pussy quaked, then her channel clenched followed by a wave of moisture that spilled between her thighs. They knew how to work her body.
    Lucian growled. “Fuck.” She pressed a finger beneath his chin and leveled their gazes. Lucian sniffed the air and flashed a knowing grin. “She’s already growing wet for us, Zane. You want us to make you come over and over again, don’t you, baby?” She nodded, not trusting her voice not to crack and give away just how overwhelmed they made her feel. “Then that’s exactly what we’ll do.” She shuddered as Zane drew out his husky promise next to her ear. Goddesses, they were her undoing.
    “Take it off, Zane. Unwrap our beautiful mate.”
    In one tug Zane freed her of the heavy cotton and her bra. Warm air closed around her. They made sure of it with their preternatural heat that ran a few degrees hotter than hers. With her back pressed to his front, Zane lifted her off Lucian. Using one hand he popped the button of her jeans and Lucian finished it by stripping her.
    “Hurry, take them off.” She flicked her legs free of their confinement one by one and slid a finger beneath the strap of her panties. Lucian slid them off and tossed them to the side on the growing pile of clothes.
    She didn’t know about the toothy grin, but her wolf eyed the length of her legs and for a split second, she felt like the girl with the red cape, and the words all the more to eat you with flashed in her mind.
    Her bare folds pressed against Lucian’s cock tucked behind the zipper of his jeans. She gave a dip of her hips. “You’re not going to make me wait, are you?”
    Now who groaned? The hiss of a zipper brought her head around. Leaning forward with her hands on Lucian’s shoulders, she watched Zane make quick work of ridding himself of his clothing. Off came the jeans and his long-sleeved button-down to reveal a man that made her wet and horny.
    Everything about him screamed alpha shifter. From the toned abs and thick arms down to the swollen cock on full display. Intoxicating. Her tongue darted out and wet her lips, hungry
