Fifty-Six
Lu ran his hands up Lola’s back, softly caressing her skin as he tried to catch his breath. His heart raced in his chest and he felt dizzy, the clouds swirling above him.
“Lu?” Lola asked, her voice barely above a whisper as she moved her hands to his sides, listening to his struggle to breathe.
“Yes,” Lu gasped out, his chest felt heavy, like he was drowning. “Just give me a minute, my love. I’ll be ready to go again. Or you can start and I’ll just lay here.” He said with a strangled laugh, bucking his hips.
Lola pushed herself back so she could look at Lu’s pale face. She couldn’t help but wonder if she’d hurt him, even if he was joking around.
“Are you sure you’re okay?” She asked, watching as his eyes fluttered closed. His cock still hard inside of her even though he’d just come.
“Could not be better.” He whispered as his hands fell to his side.
“Bodach,” Lola said, looking up towards the fae man, whose eyes were glued to her as Merrow stroked his cock. She felt Lu go limp beneath her. “Help me.”
“Damn e don fho-thalamh. I got distracted.” He said, pushing Merrow’s hand away from his dick. Bodach scrambled over to them, his hand moving to Lu’s neck as he checked his pulse. “It is weak, Puca.”
Clapping a hand over her mouth, Lola let out a sob as she scrambled away from them.
“Lola, wait.” Bodach said, his tone commanding as he moved behind Lu. Pulling the other man into his lap as Puca came closer to him. Lola moved to her clothing, pulling on her shirt as she watched Puca crouch down beside Lu and Bodach.
“He’s going to be okay Lola, I can heal him.” He said, looking over to Lola as he grabbed Lu’s hand in his own.
Her red eyes met his, and he glanced over at Bodach and then to Merrow. The other man was straightening his clothing as he moved closer to Lola.
“Lola, it will be al-”
“No, it’s not.” Lola said cutting Merrow off, “I hurt him, I could have killed him.”
“Lola.”
“No, don’t ‘Lola’ me.” She said, her her hair moving about her as she backed up a step from him. She didn’t want him to touch her. She didn’t want any of them to touch her. She could still feel the desire swirling through her and she didn’t want them to get sucked into it.
“She is showing good control.” Bodach said as he stroked Lu’s hair away from his forehead.
Frowning, Lola looked back at Lu. She needed the focus to be on him. Looking over at the other men as Puca ran his hands over him. A bright light coming from his hands as they met his skin. It was almost blinding in its intensity.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Puca will take care of him.”
“What about the time after that?” Lola asked, her voice small. “Or the next time.”
Merrow turned back to her, picking up her shorts as he stepped closer. “You will get your fae side under control.”
“You don’t know that, Merrow.” Lola replied, everything in her wanted to go to him. To let him wrap his arms around her and let him comfort her.
“I do, you are strong Lola.” He said holding the shorts out to her with a determined look in his eyes.
“No, I’m not,” Lola grumbled as she tugged her shorts on, “I’m not as strong as you and the others think I am.”
Looking back to Lu, she worried her lower lip. His cheeks had some color, but he still hadn’t opened his eyes. She didn’t know how she was going to get this under control, but she knew that she had to find a way.
She couldn’t keep hurting them. Closing her eyes, she could still picture the way that Merrow had looked as he gasped for air at the beach.
How was she supposed to be with them if she couldn’t control what would happen?
“Lola, stop worrying.” Merrow said as he watched Lu let out a cough. Water spurting from his mouth and into the air as he took a deep breath, “We fae men can handle more than you give us credit for.”
Lola bit the inside of her cheek. How could he tell her to stop worrying? This was their lives. She picked at the hem of her shirt as she watched Bodach lean over and grab the quilt before wrapping it around Lu’s trembling form.
She had done this, she’d hurt her sweet Lu. Shoving her hands into her pockets, she told herself that she wouldn’t let this happen again. She’d find away to get in contact with the queen and send them home. At least there she knew that they’d be safe from her.
Because if they stayed here. There was no way that she would be able to stay away from them.
Shoving her feet into her shoes, she moved closer to the men sitting on the ground. Lola knew that she would have to tell them goodbye. The thought made her heart twist painfully in her chest.
She’d never felt more like she belonged than in her time with them. Lola knew she had a long road ahead of her to get the fae home. Then she could mourn for them. There was no way she was willing to risk their lives for her own pleasure.
“Lola,” Lu said, a soft smile on his face. She felt the guilt flood through her as she stayed out of arm’s reach of them.
It was easier to think if they weren’t touching her, if she weren’t touching them. She was glad they had each other, that they were all so close.
That was good though, they’d need each other when she ended things and they were back home.
