Hara's Legacy Read online

  “Don’t just sit there,” he hiked his chin toward the adjoining bathroom, “make yourself useful. Jane needs our care now.”

  Mick saw Caleb’s gaze go from the rather obvious trail of his semen leaking out from between Jane’s plump thighs to his face and Mick felt even worse. Bad enough he’d let Jane’s pleasure override his common sense, but now that his brothers knew what he’d allowed to happen, they’d never let him live it down. He felt like crap, but he also felt like a king that Jane would care so muchto want to know him so deeplyshe would sacrifice her own pleasure in order to feel his.

  He could only love her more for itif that were even possiblebut had problems letting her feel it. He always had. Ever since he’d come home from school to watch her marry Caleb. In those years, he’d learned to hide his emotions from her, for her own protection. He hadn’t wanted to hurt Caleb or Jane with his deep, almost uncontrollable love for her. He couldn’t love her just as a sister, not when he’d wanted her as a man since he was old enough to know what that kind of love was.

  True, he’d never acted on it aside from one lingering kiss before he’d left for school, but he hadn’t been in a position to offer her anything back then. Now, however, he would offer his very soul to keep her safe and protected within the shelter of their family. If that meant sharing her love with his brothers, well, he’d become used to it. Truthfully, seeing her with them turned him on, though he’d never had the wild sex life either of his older brothers had before the cataclysm. Still, he was learning the decadent pleasures of sharing, and by all indications, Jane loved it. Whatever made her happy, made him doubly so.

  The thoughts rushed through his mind as he prepared a warm washcloth in the adjoining bathroom. He went back to find Justin licking one of her nipples as Caleb teased the other. Her legs squirmed in a delicious way and Mick stopped to admire the scene for a moment, his cock getting even harder as he heard her moan of pleasure. Caleb looked at him and he moved again, placing himself between her thighs, using gentle touches to part her legs.

  With tender strokes, he cleaned her, inflaming her at the same time. He played with her tight nubbin, squeezing gently, inserting his fingers and spreading the lubrication of her warm and willing body. He threw the washcloth aside, his mind on a new goal. He had to taste her. He wanted to lick her cream and bring her pleasure.

  Caleb eased away from her and met Mick’s eyes.

  “Let her feel what you feel, Mick. She needs it.” Caleb sat at her side, stroking her, quieter now as he watched over the loving of their woman.

  Mick tried hard to let go of the control that had become so second nature to him, cracking open the wall around his emotions the little he could. Justin moved away as Caleb reached across Jane’s body and touched his shoulder, and then Mick was looking into Jane’s pretty eyes.

  Slowly, he eased down, his tongue reaching out for her, his eyes never leaving hers. He knew his brothers watched. He could see their hands stroking her and holding her hands. He could hear their thoughts, though they didn’t realize just how powerful his telepathy had grown over the years. Justin was as hot as Mick had ever seen him, watching him go down on Jane. But then, Justin was the most sexually adventurous of the three brothers. Mick could learn a lot from eavesdropping on Justin’s memories, never mind his fantasies!

  Caleb, as usual, put everyone’s needs before his own. He had that in common with Jane. She cared only that all three of her men were as happy as she could make them. She wanted peace in their souls and would sacrifice her own, for them, any day of the week. Mick watched her eyes, knowing her chaotic thoughts, filled with a desperate yearning, not only to achieve fulfillment herself, but to bring it to all three of her chosen mates.

  Mick frightened himself with his own desperate need as he nuzzled her, swirling his tongue through her slippery folds. He didn’t want to scare her with the power of his emotions, but knew he had to give her something. He let her feel the love first, in small doses, watching her eyes go soft with pleasure as he released his emotions in time with the tugging of his lips on her distended clit. This was a pleasure only he could bring her.

  The others could pleasure her physically, bombard her emotionally, but he could control both sides, tease her sensitive empathic senses with small doses of revelation. She was nearing her peak as he orchestrated her release. He sent out tendrils of thought to his brothers, reassuring them, asking their compliance with his wishes, though they’d never taken orders from him before in such a situation.

  But all that was going to change, here and now. Mick needed to control this, and he knew he could make it more than good for Jane, and for his brothers. He watched as they returned to her breasts, and then he closed his eyes, concentrating completely on Jane’s pleasure. It was the one thing in the world for which he would release the tight leash on his emotions. He flooded her with his love and desire as he thrust his tongue into her, stroking in time with the pulses of emotion he sent. He reveled in her scream of fulfillment as she thrashed so hard in his arms he had to restrain her legs in order to ride out this first orgasm. He stroked her with his tongue, not letting her come all the way down, but building toward another, quicker, even more powerful crescendo.

  Jane cried out in ecstasy once more as the pulses of her body told Mick how high she’d gone this time. Once more he rode her through the storm, raising her up again, but this time, he held her there at the peak, knowing his brothers’ thoughts as well as he knew his own. Not sparing a glance, Mick spoke directly to Caleb’s mind, telling him what Jane needed, seeking his cooperation and agreement. His thoughts shifted to Justin, whose own telepathy was strong enough to pick up on a lot of what Mick was doing and got his instant agreement, tinged with admiration.

  Mick moved away, making room for Caleb as the two men switched places. Caleb mounted his wife quickly, not giving her any reprieve from the straining pleasure, just as Mick had asked. He was proud his brothers trusted him enough to plan this pleasure for them all and knew from their unguarded thoughts they understood, to varying degrees, how he needed to do this to redeem his earlier lapse.

  Mick was sharing a part of himself and his abilities with them they’d never seen before, and though he valued his privacy, he knew this was right. If he couldn’t share with his family, then he was in an even sadder place than he’d thought. He watched as Caleb joined easily with Jane, setting a slow pace at first, careful of her healing body.

  “Harder!” Jane demanded, desperation clear in her strangled cries. “Oh, Caleb, I need you!”

  Mick smiled, watching her. He bent and silenced her with a deep and lingering kiss, letting her feel the love and pride he felt at that moment. She came again, with battering intensity as Caleb fucked her. Mick moved aside, kissing her neck as he directed Justin with a quick burst of thought. Justin leaned in and kissed her as deeply, as profoundly, letting his emotions wash over her in a constant stream. Justin couldn’t control them like Mick could. But Mick used every shred of his control now, letting the heat of his emotions grow as he watched Jane.

  Mick caught Justin’s eye as he moved closer to her mouth. Jane practically swallowed him whole, she was so eager. She tongued him as his eyes rolled back in pleasure. Mick watched as she fisted the base of Justin’s cock, the other hand surprising him as she reached out for Mick.

  It looked like Caleb was nearing his peak, so Mick let loose with pulses of his own emotional need, tickling her empathic senses to new heights. Her body spasmed and her gaze shot to his. He stroked her hair as Justin pulled out of her mouth. She let Justin go with one last, long lick, and held Mick’s gaze as she came hard around Caleb, spurring him on to his own release.

  Mick kissed her, knowing Caleb was enjoying his moment inside her, pulsing out his release in her depths. Mick basked in their glow for a moment, pulling back to regard Jane as Justin moved to the foot of the bed.

  “You know how much I love you?” Mick asked in a low voice. Jane nodded, her eyes tearing with joy. “You kno
w I didn’t mean to hurt you, right?” Again she nodded. “And you know how sorry I am, right?”

  “I know it now,” she whispered. “Your emotions are teasing my senses, Mick. You’re still holding them back somehow—” She seemed confused as to how he’d managed it.

  “All for your pleasure, darling. You know that now, right?”

  She bit her lower lip and nodded again.

  Caleb sat next to Jane’s hip, having recovered enough to remove himself from between her thighs. “You’ve been holding out on all of us, Mick. When did your telepathy kick into high gear?”

  Mick shrugged and he knew it didn’t take an empath to see he was uncomfortable. Jane reached up to stroke his stubbled cheek.

  “It doesn’t matter,” she reassured him when Caleb would have pressed for an answer. “What matters is that you’re sharing now. Don’t think I don’t appreciate it. And don’t think I don’t love it.” Her smile turned devilish as she let them all know how she enjoyed the pleasure he was able to administer both to her body and to her empathic senses.

  “You ready for another round?” Mick asked with a challenging tilt of his chin. “I have a bit more to make up for with you, I think.”

  “You can make up to me all you want.” She smiled and rose up just enough to twine her arms around his neck and bring him back down with her.

  Mick nodded at Justin before kissing her deeply. He knew Justin would move between her legs and he also knew, as the family doctor, that his brother was in for a little surprise when he did. He couldn’t wait to hear his reaction, and it wasn’t long in coming.

  “Oh, God, baby! You’ve never taken all of me before. Shit!” Justin was almost incoherent as he settled into her well-lubricated pussy. She fit him like she was made just for him.

  Mick smiled, his eyes holding secrets. “Her body has changed a bit since the baby.”

  “I didn’t think it could get any better, but holy shit!” He swore as he stilled to take a moment and just feel. “Jane, you’re so perfect. I’ve never been this deep inside you.”

  Her eyes teared again, feeling his genuine happiness and awe, he knew. It was a special moment.

  “Dammit, Mick.” He looked up into his brother’s dancing eyes. “You knew!”

  Mick grinned at both of them, stroking Jane’s swollen breasts with obvious appreciation.

  “I admit I had some idea. Women’s bodies change after giving birth, Jus. And after all this time, I knew what you enjoyed about her. I guessed the rest. She’ll be able to take all of you now and still give that extra ridge that gets you off. I figured you’d be happy.”

  “Shit!” Justin’s eyes clenched against the waves of pleasure. Not only was she taking him fully for the first time, but the thought of what was to come tantalized. He also realized in a stark moment of clarity that Mick knew things Justin had never spoken out loud.

  “You little fucker,” Justin cursed his brother good-naturedly. “After we finish here, we’re going to have a little talk about how your telepathy has grown.”

  Mick laughed and bent to Jane’s ear, whispering loudly so they all heard. “Did you know he really gets off when the tip of his cock hits your cervix? That’s why he likes to go so deep and hard.”

  “Jeez!” Justin shouted, his cock pulsing as Mick painted the picture and his body began to slam into her, wanting that friction as she tightened around him in returning passion.

  Jane cried out as Justin sought deep within her, finding the friction he needed, letting them all know how perfect she was.

  “Shit, baby! It’s never felt this good before!”

  Justin came in a rush as Jane squirmed her pleasure beneath him, crying out at the depth of his penetration and clearly loving every minute of it. Justin was breathless as he collapsed on her, his seed spurting within her well-loved body. He kissed her neck, her cheeks, her lips, murmuring words of his love and appreciation of her beautiful body as they both came down from a very high peak. Mick was there, at the head of the bed, grinning at them as Justin came back to himself.

  “Dammit, Mick. I thought she was the one who knew all my secrets, but it’s been you all along. How the fuck did you know about what I like?”

  Mick shrugged. “After watching you with Jane so many times? It’s kind of hard not to hear your thoughts at such momentsmonosyllabic as they often are.” Mick chuckled as his brothers stared.

  Jane sat up as Justin left her body and sat on the edge of the bed.

  “Then tell me, Mick, what do I like about your body?” Her voice was low, her eyes teasing.

  “You like how the curve of my cock rubs your G-spot on every stroke,” he answered, surprising everyone in the room.

  “My very own G-Man,” she agreed, trailing her fingers over his hard cock, rubbing the curve and just under the knobby head as he started to breathe hard. “I need you inside me. Now.”

  “No place I’d rather be.” Mick groaned and took his place between her thighs. She was already so primed, Mick didn’t need to wait for anything. He slid home and felt better than he had in weeks. He loved this special woman with all his heart and counted himself lucky to be a part of her life and her love. It still hurt to think about the way things should have been, but he tried hard to focus on what was, not what could have been. If only that task were as easy as it sounded…

  Chapter Fourteen

  Jane was feeding the babies the next day when Mick and Justin walked into the nursery.

  “I’ve been working on a way to store milk so Jane doesn’t have to get up in the middle of the night anymore.”

  “You can do that?” Jane’s gaze shot to his.

  “Shouldn’t be a problem. We just have to figure the best way to get the milk from you and into the bottle.”

  “She’s not a cow, shithead.” Justin sounded scandalized, but couldn’t take his eyes off Jane’s swollen breasts.

  “I know that, stupid, but if we could take some of her milk and put it in the fridge, she’d get a lot more sleep. One of us could get up to feed them. Plus,” his eyes danced with deviltry, “I’d love to give it a try. Playing with Jane’s breasts is so much more interesting now, don’t you think?”

  Justin’s eyes grew darker and more passionate. He’d always loved her breasts. They held an even greater allure now. He loved watching her breastfeed his children. It was special with Callie, but even more so with the boy. Harry was aware in ways Callie was only just learning. He knew Jane wasn’t his mother, but she said she sensed Harry loved her as part of his extended family, as his father’s mate. And he loved her for nourishing him and loving him as his own mother couldn’t.

  It was weird, she’d said, that the baby was so aware of himself and his position in the family, but it presented a rare opportunity to teach and nurture him while they had the chance. Because after the six months his alien mother had allotted, they weren’t sure if they’d ever see him again.

  Justin watched Harry gurgle and slurp at Jane’s breast and grinned. “I think our boy agrees with you, Mick.”

  “I know he likes my breasts better than his mother’s, but I think that’s just because I have what he needs.”

  “Janie,” Justin’s caught her attention, “you have what all the O’Hara men need.” His voice dropped low. “You’re our salvation.” Justin picked up his sated son and rubbed his back with care. “You hear me, son? You should understand this. Jane is your mother. She’s your human mother. Mara may have given birth to you, and you should respect her for that gift of life, but Jane is the mother of your heart.” He turned his eyes to his woman. “Isn’t that true, sweetheart?”

  Jane’s eyes filled with tears at the feelings coming at her from the malesespecially the baby.

  “It’s true. I love him because he’s part of you, but also because he’s mine now too. He nurses at my breast and I couldn’t love him more if I’d carried him in my womb. Callie loves him too,” she said, “and he loves her, his sister, and will protect her all the days of his life.�
��

  “You feel all this from them?” Mick asked quietly, somewhat in awe.

  Jane nodded. “More from Harry than Callie, but her love for him is undeniable. She wants to be near him every waking moment. As he does with her. But his feelings are more protective, more mature somehow, as if he’s aware that she’ll need his protection and love in the future, as he needs her love and acceptance.”

  “Wow.” Mick shook his head. “I never dreamed babies had so much awareness.”

  “It grows a little each day. It’s amazing to feel.” Jane finished feeding Callie and moved her to her shoulder as Justin settled Harry down for a nap. He then took Callie from her arms and rubbed circles on the baby girl’s back before putting her in the crib with her brother.

  Mick was beside Jane now, massaging her breasts. “Nipples hurt?” he asked gently, watching the reddened tips as she nodded. “We were too rough last night. We’re not used to sharing with hungry babies.”

  “I’m sorry, baby.” Justin swore and dropped to his knees in front of her. He cupped one nipple in his palm as if to ease it, intrigued when he felt the wetness of her milk leaking onto his skin.

  “It’s okay, I’m just a little sore.”

  “In the old days,” Mick confirmed, an amused light in his own eyes as he palmed her breast, “we would have bought you a breast pump. I wish I’d thought to get one when I was laying in supplies. But I can probably rig something. If we can store some milk in the fridge, you won’t have to do all the feedings in person, as it were. We can take turns in the middle of the night, for example, and let you get some uninterrupted sleep once in a while.”

  “Sleep sounds heavenly.”

  “Then it’s agreed,” Mick said quickly, as if that’s all he’d been waiting for. “I’ve got the equipment we’ll need ready to go. We’ll try this as soon as possible. Get them used to it a little at a time so you can get more rest.”

  “What sort of equipment?” Jane wanted to know, concern on her pretty face.
