Saving Sarah by Jennifer Salaiz Read Free Book Online Page B

you want him to stay. Is it because of what happened between us earlier? You can’t help the way you feel, Sarah. Don’t try to ignore it.”
    “Don’t tell me how I fucking feel, Devon. Gavin’s here because I want him here, and he’s not going anywhere. Ever.” There it was. That possessiveness was creeping back in. Screw it. It was the truth. She suddenly didn’t care if he ever left.
    “What happened earlier?” Gavin asked, looking toward her.
    “It’s nothing,” she said angrily.
    Devon laughed. “Oh, I wouldn’t agree. We were meant to be together, Sarah. We always have been. If you fight the pull, it’s only going to get stronger.”
    “Impossible,” Gavin whispered. He slowly turned to Devon. “I’m afraid we might have a problem then because she’s meant to be mated to me.”
    “What in the hell are you talking about?” Devon snapped his gaze toward Gavin.
    “You may have been alpha, but that doesn’t make me stupid. I know what I feel, and she’ll tell you how she feels. The bonding has already started, and it’s getting stronger. I promised I wouldn’t mark her until she’s consented. How long do you think that will take? We already can’t stand to be separated.”
    “I told you what I would do if your teeth came anywhere close to her,” Devon said angrily. “I’ve loved her for more years than the hours you’ve known her. If anyone has a right to mark her, it’s me. Besides, you can be separated. If it were impossible, I wouldn’t have been able to leave. It hurts like hell, but you won’t die.” Devon paused, studying Gavin. “At first, I thought you might mark her just to be a prick, but this whole we’re all three bonding just takes the cake. You’re fucking amazing, you know that?”
    “Oh, I assure you it’s the truth. For all I know, you’re the liar.”
    Both men closed in on each other. From the look of fury clearly expressed by their tense bodies, Sarah had no doubt things were about to get bad. “Stop it, both of you. No one is marking me anytime soon, so there’s no point in arguing.”
    Gavin tore his gaze from Devon and surprised Sarah by smiling. His hands cupped her face. “May I kiss you and demonstrate what we share?”
    She nodded, feeling extremely uncomfortable. The moment her new lover’s lips brushed hers, she could feel herself pulling his body closer. He broke the kiss breathing heavily and turned to Devon. “Go near her. I want to see just how powerful your pull is. Sarah, is that all right? It’s just a test. You can stop it whenever you want.”
    Nervously, she looked back and forth between the two of them. “No, I…can’t.”
    Devon took a step toward her. “Sarah, please. Gavin obviously isn’t lying about the two of you. I could feel your connection. But I know I’m not imagining what we share. If the pull isn’t there, then I’ll leave, but I have to know.”
    Could she do this? Would getting close to Devon affect her the way Gavin did? She knew it would! But she needed to know just how much. If for some reason it didn’t, maybe they both could move on. And that meant no more interruptions.
    He stood there with his hand outstretched. Gavin walked beside her, nodding to her it was okay. Sarah placed her fingers through her ex’s and stepped forward against his body. The tidal wave of emotions left her breathless. She looked into Devon’s gray eyes and saw his head lowering. For the life of her, she couldn’t turn away. She didn’t want to.
    The first brush of his full lips sent electricity coursing through her body, but she remained still, trying her best to not give in to the temptation. He ran his tongue between her lips, leaving a trail of wetness. A shiver raced through her. Instantly, her body reacted on its own. She could feel her arms wrapping around his neck, pulling him forward. The taste erupted over every inch as her tongued dueled with his. And suddenly, he was gone.
    Sarah opened her eyes to see Devon clear
