For the Love of Fire and Ice: Paranormal Dating Agency (Heads N’ Tails Series) Read online

  She didn’t know how many songs they danced to. She’d never had this much fun dancing with other men. Tony and Bryan passed her between them. With every spin she was in the others arms. When a slow song came on she thought it may get weird, but it didn’t. She had her arms around Bryan swaying with the beat. Tony came up behind her with one arm on her belly, and the other sweeping her hair off her neck. He kissed the skin he just exposed as she laid her head against Bryan’s shoulder. Halfway through the song Bryan slowly spun her around to finish the song with Tony. They were perfectly in sync with each other.

  “It’s rare to find a woman that attracts us both,” Tony told her softly.

  “Your body calls to us,” Bryan whispered in her ear. He pressed his body against hers, claiming her neck with his lips.

  “What are you going to do about that?” She could barely make out the words as Tony claimed the other side of her neck.

  She leaned her head back on Bryan’s shoulder giving them both better access to do as they please. It was a bit overwhelming having two men this close.

  “Nothing yet,” Bryan spoke. “We won’t rush you.” They both kissed her cheek.

  The song faded away and Annette wished for another slow song to play. She didn’t want to move from between them. Unfortunately, her wish didn’t come true this time. A fast paced, up-beat song came on dashing her dreams of another round on the floor with them.

  “You ready for that drink yet?” Tony asked.

  No, she thought but simply nodded. She wanted to be back in their arms again. She held their hands as they walked back to the bar for another round of drinks. Bryan went behind the bar to fix them up another cocktail.

  “I think this will be my last one. I still have to drive home,” she said.

  “We got you covered.” Bryan handed her another glass.

  “You could just stay with us tonight,” Tony offered. “We’d like to show you around the penthouse anyways.”

  Annette smiled thinking about being in their penthouse with them. It would be a great ending to the night.

  “I’d like to see your place,” she agreed.

  “I had a fun time in your club tonight,” she told both of them. “Will you bring me back another time?”

  “You can come back anytime you want. We’ll have a membership card made for you, it will let you go to different floors,” Bryan said.

  “I don’t want to go to all the floors,” she told him with wide eyes.

  “Don’t worry. we’ll set it for certain floors, like the ones we’re working.”

  “That will be best, for now at least.” She smiled.

  The elevator door slid open. As she stepped off the elevator, she was a little confused. It looked like a hallway to a lavish hotel, rather than the penthouse. Bryan and Tony took her hand and led her down the hall.

  “I thought you said you live in the penthouse,” she commented.

  “We have to take a different elevator. Some don’t go all the way up. It keeps things separate,” Bryan told her. “It gives us an advantage to come up with different designs for the club levels.”

  “We need to go to the east side elevator to reach the penthouse,” Tony explained.

  “What are all these rooms?” She asked.

  “Just that… rooms. We offer rooms to those who may need one. There’s black out rooms incase vampires need a place to stay when daylight comes. Lovers may want a romantic room for the evening. We cater to them all,” Bryan said.

  “I’d get lost easily.”

  “Yeah, it’s bigger than we expected, too. It leaves room to grow,” Bryan admitted.

  “Do you have plans for all the floors?” She asked as they came to the eastside elevator.

  “Not all of them. It takes some time to convert a floor from rooms into a club,” Bryan said.

  “We’ll get there. Until then we keep the rooms operational,” Tony stated and opened a side panel beside the floor buttons.

  Annette watched as Tony slid a key card into the elevator keypad then pressed a series of buttons in the panel. As the doors closed, Bryan took her hand, pulling her closer to him. Tony settled in next to them and held her other hand. She looked at Tony then to Bryan. How did I get myself into this? This is Braelynn’s kind of thing, not mine. Annette was on the verge of panic. What the hell am I going to do with two?

  “Relax,” Tony told her. “We’re not going to lock you in a dungeon and take advantage of you.”

  “Unless you want us to,” Bryan laughed and squeezed her hand.

  “I didn’t think either of you would,” she admitted.

  “Honey, you have the look of sheer panic in your eyes,” Bryan told her. “We can go back downstairs. We’re not asking you to jump into bed with us. Just showing you around, that’s all.”

  “It’s not that. I just have never had two at once. I’m scared I won’t know what to do with you two.” The words came out of her mouth without thinking.

  “Well, that’s the beauty of us. You don’t have to do everything. When that time comes, you don’t have to worry about pleasing us both at once. You forgot we’re bonded. We’ll do you and each other,” Bryan said with a smile.

  “We can give you pleasure together or to each other. Would you like to watch?” Tony raised his eyebrows in a suggestive way.

  “That would be interesting.” She’d never seen two men together. The thought had her blushing.

  A soft ding sounded as they reached the top floor. The doors slid open and Annette was instantly drawn to the entrance foyer. It had stone walls with soft flickering flames of torches on both sides of a large red door.

  “Welcome to our little piece of paradise,” Bryan said unlocking the door.

  “It’s looks like a castle.” She told him.

  “Everything has been customized. From the high vaulted ceiling to the heated floors.” Tony said as Bryan opened the door.

  Tapestries with Dragon emblems lined the hallway walls on both sides. Each side was decorated a different color. One was a deep brick red with a gold dragon surrounded by flames, and the other a pale blue with a silver dragon in the center with an ice circle around it. Annette reached out to feel the thick tapestry.

  “These are beautiful.” Annette could imagine their own dragons depicted on the tapestry.

  “A little something from home.” Tony looked at the ice dragon tapestry.

  “Do you miss it?” She asked.

  “Sometimes, but this is our home now.” Bryan kissed Tony’s shoulder. “Come on, we’ll give you the tour.”

  The penthouse was impressive. Every room was nearly the size of her entire apartment. Though the outside entrance made you feel as though you were walking into a castle, the inside was quite modern with an oversized twist. The kitchen was decked out in marble and stainless-steel appliances. A look that she personally loved. A step-down living room was filled with plush furniture that invited you in for a night on the couch. French doors opened up to a large balcony. Wanting to see how high up they were, she stepped out into the cold night’s air. The view was spectacular. The clear night let the stars shine bright. The quarter moon gave off a soft glow. She walked to the rail, and looked down. From there she could make out people at the rooftop restaurant a few stories below.

  “I thought the restaurant was on the top floor.”

  “This building has three rooftops. The restaurant is only on one of them. We have a private entrance to the rooftop above us, and the third isn’t in use yet. You can see it from the other side,” Tony told her.

  As if to check his words, Annette went to the opposite end of the balcony and looked over. The other rooftop was closer to them than the restaurant, but it was bare of all people and furniture. She followed them back inside, ready to get back to the tour.

  “This is my room,” Tony stated as they came closer to a dark blue door with a silver dragon crest in the center.

  “I thought you would share a room, since you’re b
onded and all.”

  “We do share a room, but we each have a room that’s dedicated to our dragons,” Tony explained as he opened the door for her to peer inside. “You probably shouldn’t go in either of our dragon rooms.”

  “Why not?” Annette peered inside and immediately knew why it wasn’t a good idea.

  “Because they’re designed for our elements,” Tony said opening the door wide.

  A chill ran through her. With the door opened wide cold air rushed out causing her to shiver. Everything in the room was iced over. Not that there was much in the room. Pillows littered the ice-covered floor. Annette bent down placing her hand on the floor inside the door. She felt the slick cold ice, and quickly removed her hand.

  “How do you keep it that cold?”

  “Think of it like a walk-in freezer. My dragon needs the chill factor. Since I couldn’t talk Bryan into moving to Alaska, this was the next best thing. I’ll take a nap in here while I’m in dragon form. It keeps my dragon happy. I froze the floor myself.” Tony told her.

  “You have a room like this too?” She asked Bryan.

  “My room is much hotter than this.” He shivered.

  “Is the floor on fire?” She asked with a laugh.

  “Nah, that would be a fire hazard for the whole building. It does have heated floors, and heat rocks the size of a couch. Come, I’ll show you.” Bryan turned on his heel and went to the large brick red door on the opposite side of the living room.

  He opened the door and steam rolled out, reminding her of a sauna. A bead of sweat formed on her forehead and she took a step back from the heat. Bryan opened the door wide for her to see inside. Where Tony had pillows, Bryan has heat rocks to lay on.

  “Does your dragon nap in here, too?”

  “At least twice a week. The rooms are good for our dragons and helps us re-energize much like Hannah and the ocean,” Bryan admitted.

  “Wanna see where the magic happens?” Tony asked with a devilish grin.

  “Of course, I want to see everything.” Everything about them intrigued her.

  “Follow us.” Tony turned and headed down the hall. Bryan closed the door to his room and followed behind them. “One of the bathrooms is through this door. Nothing spectacular, it’s mainly for guests.”

  “Let me guess, the bedroom is through that door.” Annette pointed to the end of the hall.

  “Good guess,” Bryan said coming up beside her.

  “This is where all the fun stuff goes down.” Tony smiled as he slowly opened the door.

  “Wow!” Annette exclaimed as she took a step inside.

  The bedroom was just as big as the living room. A huge custom-built bed was against the opposite wall, nearly taking up a third of the space. She’d never seen a bed this size before. How much rolling around room does a dragon shifter need?

  “What size of bed is that? I’ve never seen one that big.”

  “It’s a custom. It has two Emperor mattresses on it.” Tony told her. “Feel free to climb on in, if you want.” He waved his hand towards the bed.

  Whether it was the alcohol she had or the child in her, she had the urge to jump on in. Kicking off her heels, she ran across the room and jumped. She landed on the bed, not as gracefully as she had planned. The skirt of her dress fell half way up her thighs exposing her freshly shaved legs.

  “What are you waiting for?” She asked not bothering to fix her dress. “Join me.”

  Bryan and Tony looked at each other and smiled then ran and jumped on the bed, landing on each side of her. When they landed, it bounced her up. She laughed as she came back down. Blood rushed to her head from the sudden jolt of the bounce.

  “Whoa, that was a rush.” She laughed. They laughed together and she laid back in the bed.

  “Can we kiss you now?” Tony asked her permission.

  She nodded and he leaned in, kissing her softly on the lips. Bryan ran his hand down her exposed leg and kissed her neck. Butterflies flittered in her stomach. Tony ran his hand up her other thigh while he deepened the kiss. Tony’s kiss was cool, not at all what she had expected. Part of her wondered if it was because he was an ice dragon. Tony pulled back as Bryan turned her head toward him with a finger on her chin. Bryan kissed her with heated passion. His kiss warmed her to the core. She parted her lips, letting his tongue slide over hers.

  They took turns kissing, and exploring her body with their hands. She’d give anything to be naked under them. She reached for the buttons on Tony’s shirt, unbuttoning one at a time. She pulled off his shirt and turned her attention to Bryan’s shirt. She laid back on the bed and admired their bare chests. They took her admiration to the next level when they kissed each other passionately for her viewing pleasure.

  “Damn, that’s hot!” She reached up caressing both of their chests as they kissed.

  “You haven’t seen anything yet.” Bryan smiled and they turned their attention back on her.

  “I think I have too much clothing on,” she commented.

  “We’re just having some fun. Tonight is about getting to know each other. If your clothes come off, then we may not be able to hold back from the things we want to do to you.”

  “I don’t mind.” She smiled.

  “But we do. You’ve been drinking and whether you believe it or not, you may be impaired. The first time with us, we want to make sure your conscious is clear. With no regrets,” Tony stated.

  “My conscious is clear.” She pulled her dress up her thigh a little more as if to tempt them into giving in. “No impairment here, just me.”

  “Another night, we promise.” Bryan kissed her shoulder. “Tonight, just let us enjoy you.”

  “I’m trying to get you to enjoy me.” She laughed, trying to hide her disappointment.

  “How about a massage instead?” Tony offered.

  “I am a sucker for a massage, but how will that work if I’m fully dressed?” She grinned.

  “We’ll make it work,” Bryan assured her.

  “Flip over,” Tony instructed.

  She did as she was told and flipped over onto her belly. She was caught off guard when Bryan hitched her dress up over her ass, leaving her thong clad ass exposed to them. For a moment she was self-conscious. Bryan disappeared from sight but came back quickly with a bottle of massage oil. They positioned themselves on each side of her. All her insecurities left when they put their hands on her. It felt amazing to have their hands massaging her legs.

  “You have the prefect body,” Bryan said as he caressed his hand at the crease of her ass. His fingers dipped between her legs at the same time Tony’s did. She prayed they’d touch her in her special spot. They just barely touched the fabric of her thong then pulled away, leaving her wanting more.

  “You’re both teases.” She grinned.

  “No, we’re attentive,” Tony countered.

  “But still a tease,” she said.

  They laughed and massaged her ass with extra pressure that drove her crazy. She loved the double attention. Her past boyfriends only cared about what she could do for them. It was nice to finally get full attention. The bonus was getting four hands to herself rather than two. Visions of getting Bryan and Tony naked had her body pulsing. Tony’s hand slipped under her dress, caressing her hip and dipping a finger in at the crease.

  “See? Tease.” She laughed.

  “Well, I mean if we’re going to get accused, we might as well do something.” Tony grinned, dipping his finger down once more.

  “Keep it up, and you’ll be more attentive than you have planned,” she grinned.

  “Just relax,” Bryan told her.

  Trying to ignore the fact that she had two sexy men caressing their way up her body. She closed her eyes and relaxed into their touch, trying not to imagine them running their tongues along her skin. She arched her back into their touch.

  “You’re not relaxing,” Bryan warned.

  “It’s hard to when all I can think about is stripping us down.” She smiled into t
he pillow.

  “I think she needs some cooling off.” Bryan looked at Tony.

  “What does that mean?” She turned toward Bryan.

  Tony smiled with a nod. Before she could turn over, Tony blew on her back. The air that past from his lips was as crisp as a winter snowy morning. Her body shivered as the air ran over her body.

  “I hope you plan on warming me back up,” Annette said to Tony.

  “I got that part covered.” Bryan smiled and lightly brew warm air down her body. “Now relax.”

  She turned back over and closed her eyes. Bryan continued to massage her back while Tony’s fingers gently slid down her legs. She relaxed on the mattress. Within a few minutes she nodded off to sleep.

  Annette woke the next morning, alone, in the gigantic bed. The smell of coffee and bacon were strong enough to come in through the cracks of the closed door. She sat up, letting the sheet fall from around her. Air hit her exposed skin. She looked down wondering when she took her dress off. A red robe sat at the foot of the bed. They must have taken her dress off after she had fallen asleep.

  Well, if they’ve already seen it, why cover up now? She got off the bed, leaving the robe in its place. She walked out the room to look for Bryan and Tony. They were in the kitchen cooking breakfast. Both wearing lounge pants hung low on their hips. She bit her lip as she stepped closer, admiring their bare backs.

  “I do love the sight of men cooking,” she said, coming into the kitchen.

  “Good morning.” Bryan turned. His eyes widened as he took in her nakedness. “Wow.”

  “We made breakfast.” Tony turned, dropping a pancake on a plate.

  “I appreciate breakfast, but where’s my dress?” She asked them, crossing her arms.

  “We sent it down to dry cleaning. It wrinkled terribly last night. I put a robe out for you until your dress is ready,” Bryan told her.

  “You’ve seen it already. Besides you two are shirtless, I might as well be too.” She straightened her shoulders. “Though, I could’ve sent my dress to the dry cleaners once I got home.”
