  Their Missing Lynx (Big Cat Mates)

  Cynthia Sax

  Rue has been obsessing over her two sexy male bosses for months. She wants them, needs them, craves them. No other men will do. She’ll risk everything -- her job, their respect, and her life -- for one wild night with her employers and the chance to make her naughtiest fantasies come true.

  Ben and Lorcan want more than one wild night with Rue. The big bear shifter and the savage lynx shifter know she’s their mate. They’ll try anything -- flowers, sweet words, an all night erotic frenzy -- to claim Rue permanently.

  Because if they don’t claim Rue, death will.

  Chapter One

  Rue sat at the end of the bar, swirling her fruity drink with a bright yellow sword-shaped stir stick. She’d ordered a sangria and received… she frowned, tilting the glass to study it closer… she didn’t know. She shrugged. It had alcohol in it. That’s all she cared about.

  Tonight was a celebration. She’d finally closed the lumber deal, fending off the wolves -- the three fiercest negotiators at their rival company. The contract would make their sales target for the year. Her bosses would be proud of her.

  Her bosses. Rue moaned quietly, rubbing her thighs together. Simply thinking of them made her pussy moisten. Lorcan, a lynx shifter, and Ben, a bear shifter, were two of the sexiest males she’d ever met. When she’d given them her hand to shake during that first interview, she’d longed to give them a piece of her heart -- the lonely, hidden piece she kept concealed from everyone else.

  She lusted after them, dreamed about them. Every time she touched herself under the covers in the dark, she saw Lorcan’s silvery-brown hair and unblinking hazel brown cat eyes, Ben’s broad face and generous smile. Sometimes she fantasized about her bosses taking turns fucking her but more often, in her dreams, they took her together, filling her, using her for their own decadent pleasure. She wiggled on the barstool, the worn vinyl squeaking under her skirt-covered ass.

  The bartender, an older gray-haired gentleman, glanced toward her. Rue stilled, her face heating. His lips quirked upward as though he knew what she was thinking. He resumed polishing glasses and watching barrel racing on the big screen TV.

  Did he like barrel racing or was it the only acceptable option in this western-themed bar? Saddles straddled the rafters above them. Faded country album covers decorated the wood slat walls. The twang of a country song filled the beer-scented air. A woman berated her man’s cheating ways, her voice mournful.

  Rue didn’t hum along. Not only couldn’t she hold a tune to save her soul, but she also felt no sympathy for the country queen. She had bigger problems than an unfaithful man. The two males she lusted after were gay. Over the past seven months, she’d watched enviously as they touched and embraced and kissed, teasing each other with their coarse fingers and firm lips. She had wanted to slip between their hard bodies and intercept their kisses.

  Rue wiggled again, her pencil-line skirt hiking above her knees. She needed to get laid. A fast fuck with a stranger would take the edge off her lust, allowing her to concentrate on business.

  She glanced around, searching for a candidate, a willing male she could use and then lose. A man slumped over a table, face down in a puddle of spilled beer, his breath blowing bubbles in the liquid. Newspapers were stuffed in his long gray socks, and he appeared dirty as though he’d been living on the streets. Another man picked his front teeth with a folded piece of paper, his belly hanging over his belt. The sheen on his greasy forehead reflected the lights.

  The selection was poor. Rue sighed. She was desperate but not that desperate.

  Three big bodies filled the bar’s entrance, backlit so she couldn’t see their faces, and her hopes for a meaningless sexual encounter revived. They were tall and broad and muscular, their legs braced apart. From their mere silhouette, Rue knew they were men in their prime, well able to give her the anonymous fuck she required. If they were ugly, she could close her eyes. She’d done that in the past. She hooked the straps of her tote over her right shoulder, preparing to approach them.

  Her body, heart, and soul refused to move.

  These strangers weren’t Lorcan and Ben and touching them would be wrong. Rue’s arousal cooled, her heart sinking. She was in deep trouble, obsessed with two men she could never have.

  The three males swaggered into the bar, heading toward her. Rue recognized them, and her frustration turned to irritation. The wolves had found her, and they looked furious. The largest one, Nels, bared his teeth at her, his hairy fingers folded into huge fists, his boot heels ringing on the hardwood floor.

  Rue slipped off the bar stool and smoothed her skirt down, ready to make a quick escape. Nels’s henchmen spread out, blocking her in. Luckily she wasn’t alone. She glanced over her shoulder at the bartender. He nodded at her, silently confirming he wasn’t going anywhere.

  “The deal is ours, bitch,” Nels growled, his beady, brown eyes hard. “Those big tits of yours might have temporarily confused the decision makers.” He sneered, his gaze lowering to Rue’s breasts, her curves completely covered by her conservative black blazer. “But that confusion ends now. If you know what is good for you, you’ll close your legs and let the big boys do business.”

  Rue straightened to her full height, which was over a foot shorter than the smallest wolf. “I won the contract fair and square.” She bristled inwardly at the implication she’d used her body to land the deal. She was a damn good negotiator. “There’s no confusion. They chose the best company for the job.” Rue glared up at Nels, prepared to defend herself, the company she worked for, and her two males.

  “You don’t want to mess with us, human.” Nels leaned forward, looming over her, forcing her to tilt he
r head farther back. He smelled of wet dog and stale sweat. “You’re no longer in your prissy city. This is the north. People disappear here all the time.” One of his henchmen sniggered.

  Rue had heard the stories of missing negotiators and had dismissed them as rumors. Now, she wasn’t as certain. “Are you threatening me?”

  “Why would we have to make threats?” The big wolf’s eyes gleamed with malice and fear skittered up Rue’s spine. “You’re smart… for a woman.” His trained dogs chuckled. “You know what you have to do. We’ll give you until Friday to make this right.” Nels pivoted on his boot heels and walked away. The other two wolves followed him.

  Rue exhaled, her shoulders lowering, tension easing from her body.

  “Those three are bad news, miss,” the bartender observed. She turned to face him. He appeared genuinely concerned. “You must really love your boss to confront them like that.”

  “Bosses,” Rue corrected. “And I love my job, not them.”

  “You tell yourself that.” The bartender placed one of his polished glasses on the top of the bar. “But no one risks her life for a job.” He poured two fingers of whiskey into the glass.

  She twisted her lips, hearing the truth in his words. “They’re gay.” And she was a fool. She should put in her notice, find a safer job, obsess over men who could return her affections. Rue returned to her bar stool.

  “Ahhh…” The bartender set the glass of whiskey in front of her. Sympathy reflected in his pale eyes. “This is on the house.”

  Her state was so pitiful, it warranted free alcohol. Rue stared into the rich amber liquid, the color of the whiskey reminding her of Ben’s eyes. She had to get away from Ben and Lorcan… preferably before Friday, before the wolves hunted her down. She cradled the glass between her palms. It was time to end her fantasy.

  Chapter Two

  Ben rubbed the ivory cushion over his face, searching for more of Rue’s delectable scent in the soft silk. Their yet-to-be claimed mate had been out of town for a week, finalizing a big lumber deal with a pulp and paper company, and her absence was driving his inner bear crazy.

  “You’re destroying the couch again.” Lorcan perched on that piece of furniture’s farthest armrest. “When Rue returns on Thursday, she’ll be upset with us.” He batted one of the crystals dangling from the chandelier, and the sunlight streaming through their home’s floor-to-ceiling windows split into a rainbow of colors, bathing the hardwood floor with light.

  “When Rue returns on Thursday, we’ll have bigger problems than ruined furniture.” Ben swiveled his ass into the spot where Rue always sat, the couch legs groaning a protest. “We waited too long to claim our fragile human, and my bear can’t be controlled.”

  “Whose fault is that?” Lorcan hopped off the couch, and his bare feet smacked against the floor. “Waiting was your idea.” He prowled soundlessly around the perimeter of the room, Ben’s lynx shifter mate never staying still for long periods.

  “Your brilliant idea was to strip her naked during her interview and fuck her on the boardroom table.” Ben snorted. “That’s not how you claim a mate.”

  Lorcan turned his head and stared at him, his cat eyes serious. “That’s how you claimed me.” Tuffs of his silvery-brown hair stood straight up. He didn’t use styling products. His hair naturally defied gravity.

  “You’re male and a shifter.” Ben scratched the couch’s leather seat, releasing more of Rue’s scent. “She’s human and --”

  “Delicious smelling.” Lorcan’s nostrils flared. “My cat wants to spread her thighs and roll in her musk.” He approached the couch once more, his gaze intent. “We have to claim her soon. We aren’t the only ones interested in Rue. The wolves have been sniffing around those long legs of hers.”

  “They won’t touch Rue.” Ben’s claws extended, digging into the leather couch. “She’s ours.” He struggled to contain his bear. “We’ll protect her, claim her.”

  “Fuck her senseless.” Lorcan passed behind the couch, drifting his fingers over Ben’s shoulders. Ben felt his touch through his checkered flannel shirt. “One of us should have gone with her. I don’t like that she’s alone.”

  “She won’t be alone for much longer.” Ben’s cock pressed against the zipper of his blue jeans. “We’ll woo her and claim her.” The front of Lorcan’s camo pants was also tented. No matter how many times a day they fucked, neither their animals nor their cocks were satisfied.

  “We tried wooing her.” The lynx shifter strode toward the window, the fabric of his pants pulling tightly over his firm ass. “The flowers didn’t work.”

  Lorcan stared out of the window. Ben knew exactly what he looked at. The building serving as their home and office was situated deep in the forest. Pine trees stood tall all around them. Moss-covered boulders were placed in front of the gravel parking lot. The lake was a mere five-minute sprint to the right.

  “She thought the flowers were a thank you for the Timmins deal.” Lorcan frowned over his shoulder, the lynx shifter not known for his patience. “That wouldn’t have happened if we had included that card I crafted.”

  “Telling our female employee we want to suck her pussy dry might have had unpleasant consequences,” Ben drawled, his male mate being as tactful as a sledgehammer. “There’s a reason we agreed I’d do most of the talking.”

  “If I talked to Rue, there’d be no more fuckin’ misunderstandings,” Lorcan grumbled. “She’d know exactly who she is to us.”

  Ben lurched to his feet and lumbered over to his foul-mouthed mate’s side. “She’s human.” He rubbed Lorcan’s broad shoulders, the black T-shirt soft under his fingertips. “We have to do this the right way.” His lynx’s muscles were tense.

  “Fuck doing this the right way,” Lorcan spat. “We have to do this right away. If she’s gone for much longer, I’ll hunt her down and --”

  “You won’t hunt Rue down.” Ben leveled a stern gaze on his mate. Lorcan wouldn’t look at him. “I’ll leave her a message, and she’ll see us as soon as she returns.” He pulled the T-shirt over Lorcan’s shoulders, revealing his fit firm body and golden brown skin. “We’ll figure out a way to control our animals. We can’t down her as a lynx downs a deer.” He formed his fingers into bear claws and playfully swiped them over Lorcan’s chest.

  “Why not?” Lorcan turned in his arms, gazing up at him with his serious unblinking eyes. “She’s our destined mate, Ben. She should be able to handle our animals.”

  “Eventually she’ll handle our animals.” Ben captured his mate’s face between his large hands, his skin smooth, freshly shaven. “Be patient. She wants us.” He leaned into Lorcan and pressed their foreheads together. “We can smell her need.” He breathed in, inhaling the scrumptious scent of arousal.

  “And my need, bear?” Lorcan’s voice deepened. “Can you smell it?”

  “Yeah.” Ben didn’t hold anything back, claiming Lorcan’s lips with a grinding, passionate kiss. The lynx shifter rumbled, pushed back, opened to him.

  Their tongues wound together as they battled for dominance, grappling shoulders, backs, asses, two northern predators intent on not only surviving but thriving, staking ownership on each other. The metallic tang of blood -- his and Lorcan’s -- excited them both.

  “Mine.” Lorcan gripped Ben’s collar and yanked, the renting of the flannel and the ping, ping, ping of buttons bouncing off the hardwood floor obscenely loud.

  “Yours.” Ben inhaled sharply as the cool air hit his skin, his mate’s aggression stimulating him. He was bigger, but Lorcan was fiercer, all teeth and claws, dominance and speed.

  The lynx shifter raked those claws over Ben’s hairy chest, leaving trails of stinging sensation across his big form. “Yes, mine.” He nipped a nipple with his sharp teeth, and Ben jerked away from him, the pain intense and unexpected.

  “Don’t try to escape me.” Lorcan cuffed his thigh, his claws retracted. “You still belong to me.” He licked the wound, his tongue wet and rough.

&n
bsp; “I’ll always belong to you.” Ben raked his fingers through Lorcan’s constantly mussed hair, holding him to his chest. “I’m a big bear.” He groaned with pleasure as his nipple was sucked. “There’s plenty of me for both of you.”

  “There is plenty of you.” Lorcan cupped Ben’s groin, pressing one of his palms against his jeans-covered cock. Ben pushed his hardness into that coarse hand, grinding into him, hungry for relief. His cock throbbed, and his balls pained him.

  “I can’t wait to see Rue wrap her ever moving lips around your thick shaft.” Lorcan stroked him through the fabric, his damn cat playing with him, teasing him, tormenting him. “I bet she hums as she sucks cock, her soft flesh vibrating around you.”

  Rue’s mouth had haunted Ben’s hottest dreams. A tremor rolled down his spine, the anticipation killing him. “While she sucks me, you’ll take her ass.” He unbuttoned his jeans, freed his cock from the strangling denim. “Claiming her as you’ve claimed me in the past.”

  “As I claimed you last night.” Lorcan wrapped his fingers around Ben’s shaft, his grip possessively tight. “She’s never had a cock up her ass before.” He pumped Ben exactly the way he liked to be pumped, roughly, relentlessly. “I heard her share that tidbit on the phone.” Their talkative human mate often forgot they had shifter hearing.

  “She’ll feel so good around you.” Ben rocked into each stroke. “As good as your fingers feel around me.” Lorcan’s calloused skin glided over the veins on his shaft, bumped against his rim. “And her pussy will be wet and welcoming.” He breathed in deeply and shuddered, her scent having tormented him for months.

  “Her wetness drives my cat crazy.” Lorcan skimmed his thumb over Ben’s cockhead, smearing the bead of precum across his skin, his touch thrillingly coarse. “I want to lap up her cream, drink straight from her pussy.” He batted Ben’s aching balls with his fingertips, seemingly heedless of the suffering he was causing.
