Maru's Surrender Read online

  ‘If I’m to be the one bearing, then both of you will need to love me, give me your seed …’

  One of them was already lying on top of him, and he spread his legs in invitation, bringing his knees up, and felt fingers probing at his hole, which was opening and leaking in welcome. The mouth sucking at his didn’t let up, and the fingers probed deeper. The mouth moved to his chest, and nibbled, and they all gasped.

  ‘Patience, sweet one, first the bond.’

  Maru laughed. ‘Really? How do we do that?’

  ‘Well …’ and then there was a hard length pushing into his ready hole, and he couldn’t laugh, only gasp in delight and then in ecstasy. He held on tight with his hands, and discovered that it was Samil on top of him and in him. He bucked up joyously, clenching around him, trying to take all of him.

  If he had thought it had felt good before, he had been wrong. This felt even better, even more complete. Samil lost control, driving into him harder and harder, and then crying out and seemingly trying to get right inside of Maru. He collapsed on top of Maru, sucking at his neck and murmuring gently to him.

  ‘Beloved. This is what beloved means?’

  Maru didn’t have time to catch his breath and answer before Samil rolled both of them over, locking his sweet brown legs around Maru’s blue ones, holding their legs apart and putting Maru on top. Maru wasn’t complaining, as Samil’s hands cradled his head and brought their mouths together, and then he felt Cara’s weight on him, his other beloved settling down between their legs and Cara thrusting his own erect length into Maru’s well-lubricated hole.

  ‘Gods, yes!’

  Cara sank home, and Maru felt like he was coming home as well. Samil held him in place as Cara thrust in and then found his own release, and the bond locked into place between them, making them all one forever.

  ‘The bond, this is the bond, beloveds … !’

  ‘Oh yes, beloved …’

  ‘Beloved …’

  ‘Beloved …’

  When they were all spent and exhausted, Maru remembered. ‘We have to seal the bond, with a bite. Are you two alright with that? A very little bit of hurt?’

  Cara bit into his throat, gently, and both of his beloveds took a drop of blood, then Cara and Samil bit each other carefully and encouraged Maru to lick those clean.

  ‘All three are one now, forever, and the marks on our throats prove it to the world. We belong.’

  Chapter 7.

  Maru wouldn’t have traded place with any of the fools in the break room who mocked triad bondings, even if he had been one of the fools not too long ago. He had, perhaps, been a little bit mistaken about the meaning of success. He had a new plan. It involved curling up with his beloveds and staying there.

  He managed to wiggle around and pull a nice soft blanket up over all three of them, and pulled Samil and Cara in close on either side of him under it. They nuzzled into him, and ran their hands over his rounded belly.

  ‘This is home.’ Cara said happily. ‘This is what home feels like.’

  Samil laughed quietly into his throat. ‘Yes, beloved. All three are one, and we’re all home now together.’

  ‘It doesn’t get any better. Unless more babies is better, which they would be ….’ Maru was still working out the details of some parts of the new plan, because he couldn’t stop himself from a little bit of planning.

  One of the members of Cara’s home group stuck his head in through the door, happily ignoring any sense of privacy. Maru couldn’t really blame Cara’s parents. They were still scared that if they let Cara out of their sight they’d lose him again. Cara’s home group had been delighted to welcome Maru and Samil as well. Privately he thought that they would have welcomed sea monsters if those had brought Cara home to them.

  They did show very good taste in their adoration of Samil, though. That one was very beautiful, and clever. And their babies would be beautiful and clever.

  ‘You are all fine? Maru, the baby isn’t giving you any discomfort? Can I get you anything?

  Finally convinced that all was well and they didn’t need anything, that one backed out, leaving the three hugging each other. They counted to ten and then repeated the conversation with one of Maru’s home triad, and then laughed. It was done out of love.

  Maru relaxed and then flinched at a slight twinge in his belly, and Cara and Samil both came to full alert.

  ‘What? The baby is alright? He’ll be alright?’ They still spoke as one sometimes, and probably always would, Maru thought. He could live with that.

  ‘He’s alright! I just had a bit of gas. Perfectly normal, according to the physician. Really, my beloveds. We’re still a long time away from giving birth, and he’ll be a strong healthy baby. Maybe with brown hair, or not. Beautiful, whatever he looks like, whoever he looks like. And clever, if he takes after either of you.’

  They both rested their hands on his belly, still waiting anxiously for the first time their little one moved inside of Maru. They would be happy waiting like that for as long as it took. Good things were worth waiting for, and they knew that better than most, with two of the three of them coming from a people who prided themselves on patience.

  Maru smiled at them. ‘He’s perfect, and he’ll be beautiful … Just like both of you. I can’t wait to meet him. And I’ll tell him the story of the fool who thought that he had to be out among the stars to have adventures.

  And then he snuggled down between his two beloveds and fell asleep again, exhausted after too long of being stupid, and having finally found his beloveds despite himself.

  The end.

  Thank you for reading!

  Note – these stories contain explicit scenes of sex, in varying degrees of steaminess, between consenting multiple adult males of different species (i.e. triads, aka menages). Note - Quin’s Fresh Start is the only story which involves a pair and not a triad. All characters engaged in sexual acts are over the age of consent in their particular universes. For readers over the age of 18 only; if this content is going to offend you, please don’t buy these books.

  Thank you!
