Golden
When the man Golden grew up loving as his father sells him into 
slavery after his mother’s tragic death, the sheltered Golden must 
leave all he knows and travel to the dark Withering Woods. 
Boris, the oldest of the three bear shifter brothers who bought 
Golden, makes him want to escape every time he opens his 
mouth. Boone’s gentle companionship is a welcome relief from 
Boris’s roughness, but Bash, the youngest, wants nothing to do 
with him, which might not be such a bad thing considering Boris 
and Boone want Golden every second… On his back. 
Boone seems to be just right, but can Golden fall in love with a 
man who owns him? If he could, would Boris stay away from 
Golden’s bed… And would Golden want him to? 
Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation 
between or among siblings.

Chapter 1
 
“How could you do this to me?” I exclaimed as I threw my plate 
at my father’s head. I’d never in my life had a single violent tendency 
but  this  time  he’d  gone  too  far.  He  ducked  the  plate  and  punched  it 
away with his hand. “You can’t do this!” 
“Actually I can, you little shit,” he growled, wrapping his silk
handkerchief  around  the  cut  in  his  hand.  “You’ve  been  an 
embarrassment since the moment you were born.” 
“Why? I have done everything you’ve ever asked of me. And
what’s my fate because of it? You sold me as a whore?”
“Just like your mother.” My father smirked at me as I clutched my
chest.  I  plopped  in  my  seat  in  shock  at  his  callous  comment.  My 
mother  had  been  buried  less  than  three  months  and  my  parents  had 
always been deeply in love.  
“What?” I didn’t understand. 
“On  her  deathbed  she  admitted  you’re  not  mine  and  made  me 
swear to make sure you were taken care of. I did. I just won’t be the 
one  to  take  care  of  you.  So,  little  bastard,  you  are  no  longer  my 
problem. Either you can keep fighting with me or you can have a half 
an hour to gather what you can before I have the carriage take you to 
your owners.”

“You’re lying. Mother would never have cheated on you,” I
whispered, shaking my head in disbelief. I stared at him with tears in 
my eyes. “Even if it is true, I have always shown you love. You’re my 
father, you’ve raised me since I was a baby. How could you do this to 
me? Punish me for her mistake?” 
“This is just the final excuse to get rid of you,” he sneered. “If you
think  this  is  the  only  reason  you’re  an  embarrassment  I  was  right 
about how stupid you are. I can’t marry you off to align myself with 
any families, nor are you of any use to me to further our family name. 
Your  demented  ways  can’t  be  made  public  without  ruining  me.  So 
you want to bed men? I sold you to three. Have fun and pack wisely.” 
I wasn’t sure how but I got to my feet and stumbled from the
dining room. Then I went up the stairs and into my room, pulling out 
my suitcases. Now I was in a panic. I had a half an hour to pack for 
the  rest  of  my  life.  I  grabbed  every  bag  I  had  and  first  stuffed  in 
everything  I  wanted  to  keep  of  my  mother’s.  What  my  father  said 
about her might be true, but I loved her and she had always been good 
to me. 
That took up one bag. I set it by the door and tried to figure what
was most important to me. My sketch pad and pencils. I couldn’t live 
without those and once I was the slave whore for three brothers who 
knew what they’d ever let me buy. Would they even let me have my 
own belongings or clothe me? 
Right, I needed to bring money I could hide. That one I could
handle during the carriage ride. I picked one smaller bag up, placed a 
travel  mending  kit  in  there  and  every  jewel,  gem,  or  piece  of  gold  I 
had  inside.  Then  I  stuffed  some  shoes  in  there  as  well.  I  could  sew 
them  into  the  lining  and  soles  of  the  shoes  along  with  a  few  other 
pieces of choice clothes.  
That filled up another two bags that I would have to make sure
were  stored  inside  the  carriage  with  me.  Withering  Woods  was  two 
days’  travel.  I  needed  to  use  every  moment  to  make  plans.  Maybe  I 
 
Golden

could find a spot in the woods and bury extra gems in case I needed to 
run. And that’s when I did something horrid.  
I snuck into my mother’s room and took some of her most
expensive  jewels.  Obviously  my  father  wouldn’t  treasure  her 
possessions any longer, given he was willing to sell her son. At least 
maybe they could help me when she couldn’t. I quickly stuffed them 
in another bag that I wasn’t going to let out of my sight. I threw a few 
changes of clothes in there as well, hoping my father wouldn’t search 
through it. 
After that it was a flurry of packing. One of my mother’s loyal
servants carried all my belongings to the carriage, tears in his eyes the 
whole time.  
“It is important these not be found,” I whispered to him. He
nodded his  understanding and quickly took  the  gem-filled bags  from 
my  room.  I  knew  he’d  hide  them  under  the  carriage  seat  where  my 
father would never think to look. When my time was up I walked out 
of  my  house  with  my  head  held  high,  ignoring  the  smile  on  my 
father’s face. 
I glanced back at the home where I grew up, picturing my mother
standing in the doorway, waving good-bye to me as I took a trip into 
town. Instead it was the last time I’d ever see my place of birth. She 
was  gone  and  now  I  was  going  to  be  as  well.  With  a  heavy  heart  I 
climbed into the carriage, closing the door on that part of my life. 
As the carriage moved forward I weighed my options. Could I
run? Where would I  run to? I was sold into slavery. If I ran I would 
literally have been a piece of stolen property even if I was the person 
to steal it. Granted if I could get far enough away no one might think 
to  ever  look  there  for  me.  But  I’d  grown  up  a  member  of  a  wealthy 
family,  always  staying  close  to  home,  learning  from  tutors.  I  knew 
nothing of the real world. 
I’d never make it. 
As much as I wanted to run just so the people my father sold me 
to would come looking for him, my life could be much worse on the
 
10
Joyee Flynn
run.  Logically  thinking,  it  probably  would.  I  decided  to  save  it  as  a 
last  option  if  life  in  Withering  Woods  with  three  bear  shifters  was 
worse than I could have imagined. And my father had sold me to be 
their whore… I could imagine a lot. 
Once we were past my village and out on the deserted road, I
pulled out one of the bags from under the carriage seat. I tore stitches 
out of one of my thickly lined coats and started sewing as many gems 
into  it  as  I  could  without  it  being  obvious.  I  worked  until  my  eyes 
burned and then sewed back the lining and repacked the coat. 
I closed my eyes for a bit, having done more sewing in a few
hours than I had done in a year. I just needed a moment to rest before 
moving  on  to  the  next  project.  It  must  have  been  more  than  a  few 
minutes because I awoke when the carriage stopped. 
“I need to rest the horses some, Master Golden,” my mother’s
servant,  William,  informed  me  as  he  opened  the  door.  I  nodded  and 
stepped down, stretching. 
“It will be okay, William. Staying in that house without my
mother  was  too  hard  anyway,”  I  assured  him.  I  knew  mostly  I  was 
trying to be hopeful and convince myself it might not be too bad.  
“But you’re being sold, Golden,” he whispered sadly. “Your
mother would be turning over in her grave at this news.”
“I promise if they’re anywhere near as horrid as my father, I will
run. I’m sewing what I can into the lining of some pieces of clothes. I 
can always find a spot to bury jewels at my new home.” 
“You were never very good at sewing,” he teased, sucking it up
for  my  sake.  “Why  don’t  you  drive  after  the  horses  are  watered  and 
fed some and I’ll work on it a bit. Sometimes the best hiding place is 
in plain sight where no one would think to look.” 
“What do you mean?”  
“I can make some of the gems look like costume jewelry and fake 
broaches, fasteners, and whatnot.”
“Genius!” I hugged him and we hurried to our tasks. We also
picked up some bread, cheese, and drinks from the local inn and were
 
Golden
11
on our way. I climbed up the front of the carriage to drive as William 
got  in  the  back,  ignoring  the  stares  that  people  gave  at  our  switch. 
Forget  them.  What  people  thought  and  keeping  up  appearances  no 
longer concerned me.  
As I drove down the abandoned dirt path I got lost in thought.
Maybe this wouldn’t be so bad? I could start over and be the mate to 
three  men…  Well,  bear  shifters.  But  they  were  part  man  after  all, 
right?  Either  way,  I’d  always  dreamed  of  being  with  more  than  one 
man,  having  them  want  me.  It  beat  having  a  quick  affair  here  and 
there when no one was watching as if I had something to be ashamed 
of always. 
And now that I knew the truth about not being my father’s son, I
didn’t want to stay in that house. I had told the truth that I had always 
showed  him  love.  The  reverse  was  not  true  and  I  hated  living  there. 
My  father  was  a  cold,  calculating  man  who  cared  about  nothing  but 
money  and  my  mother  when  she  had  been  alive.  It  did  surprise  me 
that  she  would  ever  stray  from  him.  He  had  been  devoted  to  her, 
always giving her everything she could want. 
Part of me was angry with her for leaving me when I needed her
most  and  confessing  her  sin  as  she  did.  But  I  couldn’t  ask  her  what 
happened  or  why  so  I  decided  I  had  no  place  to  judge  her  for  her 
actions.  There  had  to  be  a  reason.  And  while  things  had  not  ended 
well for me because of it, my journey was not over and maybe I could 
still find happiness. 
Or I really wouldn’t and I was stupid and naïve to ever think
otherwise.
I wondered what my real father was like. I knew I got my curly
blond hair from my mother, but maybe he had had it  as well. Did he 
have  my  blue  eyes?  They  weren’t  like  my  mother’s.  I  was  fairer-
skinned than either of my parents, my mother always blaming the fact 
that I was born earlier than was normal time for my tendency to burn 
in the sun.

Now I knew that was a lie. It made me sad because she hadn’t
only  lied  to  him  but  to  both  of  us.  I  would  have  liked  to  have  heard 
the truth from her and known when she met my real father, why she’d 
slept  with  him.  Hell,  I  just  wanted  her  back  and  to  make  this  all  go 
away. Even if I could never meet a nice man and fall in love one day 
as if I liked women, being alone would beat being sold. 
But I wasn’t going to get what I wanted it seemed. Not everyone’s
story was a fairy tale.

Chapter 2
 
We drove through the night and I was truly afraid for the first time 
in my life that I was going to get eaten. There were eyes in the dark, 
staring out from behind trees. Even the horses had picked up the pace 
on  their  own  because  they  were  getting  spooked.  I  was  thoroughly 
regretting my decision to not stop for the night in the last village.  
“I think we need to light the lanterns, Master Golden,” William
called  out  from  inside  the  carriage.  “We  don’t  have  to  stop  but  the 
horses need to slow some.” 
“Easy,” I cooed to the two horses and they went back to a simple
walk. William quickly lit the lanterns and as silly as it sounded, I felt 
a little bit better. But  I could still feel the danger surrounding us and 
we  weren’t  even  close  to  the  cursed  Withering  Woods  yet.  If  this  is 
how  I  felt  in  a  regular  wood,  I  started  to  worry  about  living  in  an 
enchanted place with a horrible reputation. 
A few hours later we did switch back, William taking the reins as
I climbed into the carriage. I smiled when I saw he was done hiding 
all  the  gems  and  whatnot  that  I  had  brought  in  several  pieces  of 
clothing. He did hide some right in plain sight, making them appear to 
be  fake.  This  could  work.  I  had  a  backup  plan  in  case  things  went 
wrong.  
I didn’t wake back up until daylight as we pulled into another
village. My body felt rested but my mind was still fried after the stress 
of the way my life had changed. Who wouldn’t be after the day I had 
yesterday? 
We gave the horses a rest, making sure they were fed and watered
as we ate. William assured me he was fine to drive so he got back on
 
14
Joyee Flynn
the front of the carriage as I slept some more. I had a feeling I needed 
to rest up as much as I could while I had the chance because after we 
arrived at my new masters’ home, I might not ever feel at ease enough 
to sleep again. 
Later that day I was even more on edge when we reached
Withering  Woods.  I  could  almost  feel  the  dark  magic  in  the  air  that 
caused  me  to  shiver.  The  horses  made  noises  as  we  went,  letting  us 
know  that  they  didn’t  want  to  continue  on  this  path.  And  the  way 
animals  could  sense  danger  when  humans  couldn’t,  I  was  wary  and 
glancing out the window constantly to keep watch. 
The carriage suddenly halted as William yelled. I darted out of the
back and raced around to him to see what was wrong.
“Run, Master Golden,” he ordered as he jumped down and drew
his sword. “Run for your life!” I looked past him to see three men, if 
they could be called that, standing next to their horses. They were half 
man,  half  bear  though  they  wore  pants  and  I  could  see  humanity  in 
their faces.  
“Golden?” one asked gruffly as he stared at me. “This is the slave
we bought?”
“Master Golden is no slave and it will do you well to remember
that,  monster,”  William  countered  as  he  held  his  sword  high  in  a 
threatening manner. 
“Watch your tongue, old man, or you will lose it,” that same man
warned.
“Stop,” I said tiredly, wiping my hands over my face in
frustration. There was no easy way out of this and there was so much 
testosterone around us it almost made me dizzy. “Please, just stop.” I 
turned  to  William  and  placed  my  hand  on  his  arm,  forcing  him  to 
lower  his  sword.  “We  knew  where  this  journey  ended,  old  friend. 
They did buy me though I was not my father’s to sell so to them I am 
a slave. I’m sure they meant no offense.” 
He nodded and put the weapon away. I then turned to the three
men there, all staring at me curiously.

“William was my mother’s servant since she was a girl and helped
raise me. We recently lost her and now my horrid father has sold me 
so  I ask  you forgive his  rudeness.  I was led to believe that  you were 
bear  shifters  not  hybrids  who  were  both  at  the  same  time.  These 
woods have a mysticism around them that has had the horses on edge 
so it stands to reason we would jump to conclusions.” 
The first growled and went to say something when one of the
others stepped forward and held up a hand that it was his turn to talk.
“Thank you for explaining and keeping this from spinning out of
hand.  We  know  these  woods  are  difficult  to  navigate  since  they  are 
enchanted. We thought it best to wait for you on the main road so you 
did  not  get  lost.”  His  eyes  were  sad  and  he  gave  me  a  slight  smile. 
“We  were  cursed  seven  years  ago  as  young  men  when  we  became 
orphans looking for a home and settled on this land. We cannot leave 
it and we are trapped in between forms. Now you understand why we 
had to buy companionship.” 
“I wasn’t judging you for buying a slave, only that I’m a grown
man and my father had no right to sell me.”
The first one spoke then. “And yet you are here? Why not run?” 
“Because he might not be an honorable man, but I am. That and I 
was  raised sheltered with  tutors.  I don’t  know enough of the outside 
world  and  wouldn’t  have  made  it  far.”  I  saw  no  reason  to  lie  when 
they were being civil. “Am I allowed to keep my belongings? We can 
follow you back to your house if that is what you wish.” 
“Yes, of course you can,” the second said as the first growled. I
had  a  feeling  I’d  want  to  stay  away  from  that  one.  “You  will  have 
your own room to do with as you want.” 
“As long as you’re always naked and available to us,” the first
added as he leered at me.
“You want me to walk around naked?” I squeaked. Great, nicely
done on my part. The second brother smacked the first.
“Fine, but nothing complicated like your fancy clothes,” he
grumbled. Okay then. This should be fun.
 
16
Joyee Flynn
I nodded before climbing back into the carriage. William got into
his  seat  and  we  drove  behind  them  as  I  had  a  massive  panic  attack. 
They  were  men  but  not.  They  were  bears  but  not.  What  were  they? 
Cursed  creatures,  the  man  had  said.  Could  I  really  be  intimate  with 
cursed shifters who had fur? Granted, their faces were mostly that of 
men, but they were huge and covered in short fur. 
“I can do this,” I whispered to myself, trying to hold on to my
sanity. “It’s too late to run since they’re on horses anyways.”
When the carriage came to a stop it took every bit of strength I
had to open the door and step back out. I sighed in relief when I saw a 
good-size,  well-kept  cabin.  There  was  even  a  garden  and  flowers.  If 
they were truly monsters their home would not look like this. 
“I am Boone,” the second brother who had been nice to me said.
“My  brother  Boris  you  spoke  with  and  the  quiet  one  is  Bash. 
Welcome  to  our  home,  Golden.  I’m  sorry  the  circumstances  of  how 
you got here are unfortunate, but I hope you will like it here.” 
“It’s a wonderful home,” I replied politely. “I admit I grew up
with servants so I will need to be taught some things but I did spend 
much  time  in  the  garden  with  my  mother.  I  also  know  some  dishes 
that I can prepare.” 
“As long as you can spread your legs and please us, no one cares,”
Boris  mumbled  as  he  dismounted.  He  took  the  reins  from  Boone  to 
his horse and led them to the small stable. 
“Well, I never—” William started to complain but I shot him a
look and he cleared his throat. “Can you show me the way to Master 
Golden’s room so that I might unload his belongings?” 
“We can help,” Bash offered, not even looking at me. 
“Of  course.”  William  was  trying  to  behave  but  I  knew  he  saw 
them as monsters. Myself, I felt bad for them. I couldn’t imagine what 
crime  young  men  could  have  committed  to  deserve  such  a 
punishment.  Bash  and  William  started  unloading  and  as  much  as  I 
tried to move my feet, I seemed frozen where I stood.

“Would you like me to show you around?” Boone asked as he
took my hand. I flinched and turned so fast to face him that I almost 
fell  on  my  ass.  He  steadied  me  by  grabbing  my  arm  and  sliding  his 
other one around my waist. “I scare you.” 
“Not really,” I whispered as I stared into his deep brown eyes.
“It’s  the  whole  situation  that  frightens  me  and  I  didn’t  realize  how 
close you were standing to me.” 
“We can make you happy if you give us a chance, Golden.” 
“As long as I spread my legs for all three of you, right?” I snapped 
back.  He  raised  an  eyebrow  at  me  and  pulled  me  closer,  letting  me 
feel the proof of how soon I’d be naked pressed against my stomach.  
“I prefer that way so I can see your gorgeous face, yes,” he
answered  seductively.  “My  brother  might  bend  you  over  every 
surface, but I promise you will enjoy it and scream in pleasure. It has 
been seven long years since any of us has been intimate with anyone 
and we have lots of time to make up for.” 
“You think I’m gorgeous?” I asked, choosing to focus on the
compliment instead of that I might walk funny while living here.
“Oh yes.” He nuzzled my neck as he inhaled deeply. “You smell
delicious as well. I look forward to our time together but as the oldest, 
Boris  has  called  you  first.  Hopefully  having  sex  again  will  help  his 
attitude and demeanor.” 
I shivered as he held me close, only stepping away when I heard
William  returning.  Boone  allowed  it,  his  eyes  raking  over  me  in  a 
caress I could almost feel. 
We all worked together to get my belongings unloaded and when
it was time, Bash said he would lead William out of the forest. My old 
friend was in tears as was I when we said our good-byes. He promised 
to pray for me and swore my mother would be watching over me from 
the heavens. With one last embrace, he climbed onto the carriage and 
left. 
“Now that we’re alone,” Boris growled from behind me. I hadn’t
even known he was there as I stood in the doorway. I yelped as he
 
18
Joyee Flynn
pulled  me  inside  and  kicked  the  door  closed.  He  started  ripping  my 
clothes off of me, intent at getting to my ass. “You have two options. 
Either  I  slick  up  and  fuck  you  or  you  can  give  me  a  blow  job  while 
stretching yourself before I fuck you.” 
“Option two,” I whispered as my ass cheeks clenched. The man
was  huge  and  he  couldn’t  be  small  in  the  cock  area  so  I  definitely 
would need time to prepare my hole. 
“Wise decision.” He pushed on my shoulders and I got the idea.
Then  he  handed  me  a  bottle  of  oil  while  undoing  his  trousers.  His 
massive  cock  slapped  me  in  the  face  and  my  eyes  went  wide  as  I 
stared at it. It wasn’t possible to be that big! He would tear me in half. 
“Get to it. I’m done playing nice and worrying about how hard this is 
on you. I want relief.” 
I mumbled something crude under my breath about if that had
been him being nice then the sky was green. He took advantage of my 
open mouth and pushed the head of his dick past my lips.  I breathed 
through my nose as  I slicked up my fingers. I quickly shoved two in 
my hole as I sucked on him. 
“Yes, good start. You have a very nice mouth,” he praised as he
thrust  forward.  I  gagged  a  bit  but  relaxed  because  getting  nervous 
wasn’t  going  to  make  him  any  smaller.  Hell,  it  hurt  to  stretch  my 
mouth  that  wide.  “I  didn’t  think  I’d  fit  when  I  saw  how  small  you 
were. Your father didn’t tell us  you were just over five feet tall. The 
sex will hurt until you get used to us.” 
I nodded my understanding and quickly stretched myself. Boris
didn’t  last  long  and  I  had  trouble  swallowing  his  seed  down… 
Because it seemed not swallowing wasn’t an option according to him. 
I wasn’t used to being handled so roughly or talked to in that manner 
but he wasn’t abusive in any way. The second he was done, I sighed 
in relief, thinking I had a bit of time for reprieve. 
Silly me.

He pulled out of my mouth, lifted me up, and flipped me over the
side of the couch in  a flash. Then he pushed into me, bitching that  I 
was too tight for him to fit. 
“Then stretch me more,” I gasped as pain like I’d never felt before
radiated through my ass.
“You’ll adjust.”  
At  least  he  hadn’t  slammed  right  into  me.  When  he  got  about 
halfway inside of me, the pain was enough to make me want to  pass 
out  but  the  experience  wasn’t  unenjoyable.  An  oxymoron  if  I’d  ever 
heard  one  but  he  filled  me  completely,  rubbing  over  my  pleasure 
gland.  I  screamed  when  he  grabbed  the  couch  on  either  side  of  my 
hips and thrust the rest of the way into me. 
“Oh yeah, I knew a tight ass like you would love this,” he growled
as he pulled out of me and did it again. “Fuck, you were worth every 
penny.  I  thought  your  father  was  lying  about  how  pretty  you  were 
until we saw your picture. Then I knew we had to have you.” 
When had they seen a picture of me? I wondered. They couldn’t
leave the forest  and how had my father found out  they  wanted a sex 
slave? 
“Admit you like this,” Boris demanded. 
“I  would  if  my  dick  wasn’t  smashed  against  the  wood  of  the 
couch,” I snapped. He sighed and lifted me up so I was over the back 
of the couch, the cushions comfortably supporting my weight. “Thank 
you.” 
“It matters not to me,” he grumbled and picked up the pace. I held
on for dear life as he tried to fuck me up and over the couch. He came 
with a howl as he unloaded into my extra-used hole. The moment he 
was done he slumped over my back. “Fantastic ass.” 
Part of me wanted to say the most scathing words I could think of
to him. The other half of me just wanted to go soak in a hot bath.
He pulled out of me as we both groaned and he slapped my ass
hard. “I’ll let you know when I’m ready for more. That was a great
 
20

start and I’ll teach you what I like as the days go on.” And with that 
he walked away.  
I was already exhausted, barely having enough energy to flop
back on the couch. But I never landed. Instead, I ended up rolling into 
Boone’s arms.  
“Let’s get you cleaned up,” he said gently as he kissed my
forehead.  “I  want  to  treat  you  right  but  mostly  I’m  being  selfish.  I 
cannot  take  you knowing my brother’s seed  would  slick the way  for 
me.” 
Yeah, I could see how that would be gross. He carried me into the
bathroom,  already  having  prepared  a  tub  of  warm  water  for  me. 
Boone  got  in  behind  me  and  quickly  washed  me.  Then  he  lifted  me 
back into his arms and carried me into his room. 
“I know you must be sore, Golden,” he whispered as he moved his
large body between my legs. “But it has been seven years since I have 
touched another person. Please, I beg you not to deny me.” 
“Can you be gentle?” I bit my lower lip. Hell, he was being nice
and he didn’t have to or even ask if I was his slave. And truth be told, 
I  did  want  him.  Maybe  that  made  me  as  demented  as  my  father  had 
said  to  want  someone  in  his  form  but  he  was  still  a  handsome  man 
and when he touched me I wanted to give myself to him in every way. 
“I will try my best but it is hard to be gentle at my size.” He
gestured down to his hard cock and I understood what he meant. Any 
human man would have shown off a piece of meat like that from the 
length alone. He wasn’t as big as Boris, but not by much.  
I nodded for him to go ahead. He smiled as he slicked himself up
and pushed my knees to his chest.  I gasped at the sensations and the 
burning the intrusion caused. Boone leaned over, pushing farther into 
my  body  and  wrapping  my  legs  around  him.  He  pushed  himself  up 
over me, thrusting in short jabs to test out how ready my hole was. 
“May I kiss you?” 
I had a smart-ass reply on the tip of my tongue about how it was 
okay to fuck me at will but kissing me was asked first. Instead, I
 
Golden
21
appreciated  how  hard  he  was  trying  to  make  things  nice  for  me  and 
nodded. I received another winning smile and he lowered his head to 
mine. His lips were like no man’s I’d ever tasted before but they were 
even more pleasant. 
He did have sharper teeth than a human but as long as I kept my
tongue away from those, the kiss was wondrous. He started slow but 
after a few minutes, he picked up the pace, moving faster and harder. 
But nowhere as rough as his brother had been.  
“Please come,” Boone begged, sweat dripping down his brow. “I
can’t  hold  out  much  longer.  You  feel  so  good  and  it’s  been  so  long 
but I want you to enjoy this as well.” 
“You have to touch me for that,” I hedged, not sure I could make
any requests. He reached between us and stroked my dick in time with 
his  hips.  I  cried  out,  arching  my  back  as  my  seed  spilled  out  of  my 
body and all over his hand and my stomach. 
Boone roared as he came, filling me to the brink with the proof of
his  pleasure.  But  when  he  was  spent,  he  didn’t  stop.  “I’m  so  sorry, 
Golden.  I  just  can’t  stop.  Once  is  not  enough.  I  promise  only  once 
more though I want nothing more than to take you all night.” 
“I can handle once more,” I lied, my ass on fire. I wanted it too.
Boone  was  passionate  and  tender  with  me  as  no  one  had  ever  been 
before.  I wanted to  have him inside of me all day  and night  as  well, 
locked together in bliss as we were. 
Good to his word, he fucked me once more in a different position.
When he was  done he brought  a cloth to  the bed and  gently cleaned 
me  up.  Then  he  applied  a  salve  that  he  promised  would  help  the 
burning and keep me from feeling pain. It did work and I thanked him 
as he crawled into bed with me. 
“Thank you, Golden. I feared my appearance would repulse you
too much and keep you from ever being able to enjoy our relations. It 
meant so much to me that you were able to look past the fur.” 
“I find you attractive and kind,” I admitted with a yawn. It was the
truth after all.

“Scream  your  pleasure,”  Boris  demanded  the  next  day  as  he 
pounded  into  my  ass.  I  was  lying  on  the  table,  legs  in  the  air  as  he 
stood and took  me. Boone and Bash were  getting a morning show it 
seemed. The moment Boris had seen me as I walked into the kitchen 
for  coffee  and  something  to  eat,  having  slept  through  dinner,  he 
jumped me. 
At least he hadn’t ruined any more of my clothes since I had been
in nothing but my drawers for the night before. But if he kept yanking 
them off me as he had there wasn’t going to be much of the ties left.  
“Yes, yes, yes!” he shouted as he fucked me so hard the table
lifted with us and slammed back down. I sighed in relief as he came, 
rutting against me until  I  was filled with  his  cum.  It  wasn’t  bad sex. 
Yeah, it was rougher than I liked, but still he didn’t take it too far. No, 
that wasn’t why I didn’t peak and wanted it to be over. I could have 
been  anyone  to  him  and  he  didn’t  see  me  as  a  real  person  to  care 
about.  
That’s why I didn’t get into it. 
His chest heaved as he lowered my legs down and he stared at my 
groin.  “You  didn’t  finish.”  Boris’s  eyes  got  dark  as  he  met  mine. 
“You’re not even hard? What is wrong with you? Are you defective?” 
“Boris,” Boone growled as he stood and pushed his brother away
from  me.  I  gasped  as  his  dick  was  yanked  out  of  me,  adding  to  the 
tenderness  of  my  hole.  “He’s  not  defective.  You  need  to  treat  him 
better  and  maybe  he’ll  enjoy  it.  You  just  yanked  down  his  drawers 
and fucked him. What did you expect to happen?” 
 
Golden

“For him to enjoy a vigorous fucking from a well-endowed man,”
Boris  shot  back,  stuffing  himself  back  into  his  pants.  “He  should  be 
grateful  we  bought  him  instead  of  his  father  selling  him  to  a 
whorehouse. They are allowed to do things there that we would never 
want to even do to him.” 
“Whorehouse?” I whispered, moving off the table gingerly. “He
was going to sell me to a whorehouse?”
“Yes, that’s how we learned of you. Bash made a few friends
from the village when they got lost in the woods years ago. They get 
our  supplies  and  when  we  asked  them  to  help  us  with  our 
companionship problem, he asked the local madam. She said she was 
just offered a man who was into men and would contact the buyer that 
we wanted  you instead if she was given a finder’s fee. We agreed to 
her terms and that’s how we got you.” 
“Oh.” I waddled over to the sink, grabbing a towel, wetting it
before I reached behind me and tried to clean up. Even a cool cloth on 
my ass hurt and I winced. 
“That reminds me,” Boris said casually as if he hadn’t just
dropped a huge bomb on me. “We need supplies from town. Bash can 
lead you to the edge of the woods and point you in the right direction. 
You can go for us now since you are not cursed.” 
“Sure, I’ll ride a horse after you’ve ridden me four times in half a
day,” I replied bitterly.
“Then you can walk!” He slammed his mug on the table and
stormed over to  me.  “Be of use to  us or we  can  sell  you ourselves.” 
Without  waiting  for  my  reply  he  left  the  house,  slamming  the  back 
door as he left. Boone and Bash were quiet as I cleaned up and pulled 
back up my drawers. 
“I’ll get the horses ready and an extra blanket for you to ride on,”
Bash said gently, giving me a sympathetic smile before heading to the 
stable. Well, at least the man had finally looked at me.

“You won’t come back, will you?” Boone asked me as he
followed me up to my room. “You’ll leave to go to town and run after 
the way he’s treated you.” 
“The thought had crossed my mind,” I snapped as I carefully
pulled  on  riding  pants.  This  was  going  to  hurt  like  a  bitch.  “Better 
than  being  sold  to  the  whorehouse  because  Boris  thinks  I’m  not 
enough of use.” 
“I will speak with him,” Boone pleaded as he reached for me. I
pretended like I didn’t see and bent down to  find my shoes.  “Please, 
Golden?  Let  me  apply  some  slave  and  beat  some  sense  into  my 
brother while you are gone. Promise me you won’t run.” 
“Fine,” I sighed, too scared to run. What if I was found and then
sold to the whorehouse? I shivered at the idea. They weren’t abusing 
me. No one had hit me or anything. Boris was just a jerk and fucked 
too hard. I could live with that if they left me alone the rest of the time 
to  do  what  I  wanted.  “Am  I  allowed  to  pick  up  some  things  of  my 
own?” 
“I will see what money we can spare—” he hedged, desperately
trying to appease me but I interrupted him.
“I have my own means,” I said quietly. “I came from wealth and
my father did not strip me of what I had when I left. It’s simply all I 
have.” 
“Thank you, sweet little Golden,” he whispered as he pulled me
into his arms. We shared a gentle kiss before he left my room to  get 
the  salve.  I  quickly  pulled  out  a  few  gems  from  hiding  and  stuffed 
them into my pocket.  
Boone applied the salve and I felt much better. I finished dressing
and he walked me outside. I was shocked to see a horse tied up to  a 
cart filled with  leather  goods. Boris  walked up to  me, clearly having 
calmed down. 
“I wrote down instructions,” he explained as he handed over a
piece of paper. “Go to the village and see the shopkeeper, his name is 
Mitchell. He will unload everything and then load our goods as I have 
 
Golden
25
listed here. Then he will pay you the remainder of what is owed us. I 
realize this might be your first trip to the village alone and while that 
is unfortunate and may be confusing for you, it has to be done.” 
“I have a little money of my own,” I said quietly, not meeting his
gaze. “I’d like to pick up a few other things if that’s alright? I didn’t 
want you to think I did it with the money you should receive for your 
wares.” 
“What items do you need?” he asked curiously and I could feel
him staring at me.
“My sketching pencils were ruined in the journey here and I
would like to buy some more and maybe another sketch pad.”
“That is acceptable. I also ask that you glance through the new
books  he  might  have  gotten  in  his  shop  and  pick  out  a  few  that  are 
interesting.  We  get  so  few  to  the  village  and  we’ve  read  all  of  what 
we  have  several  times.”  He  was  trying  so  I  decided  to  give  him 
something in return. 
“I will do my best and when I return I will bring out the books I
brought  with  me.  Maybe  there  will  be  some  in  my  collection  you 
might find interesting as well.” 
“That would be greatly appreciated,” he said slowly. I nodded and
stepped  towards  the  horse.  He  surprised  me  by  lifting  me  up  onto  it 
instead  of  letting  me  climb  up  on  my  own.  I  stared  down  at  him  in 
shock  at  the  kind  gesture.  Boris  didn’t  meet  my  eyes,  instead, 
glancing over my body as he ran his hand up my thigh. “I anger easily 
and I regret my words hurt your feelings. Your father was not worthy 
to have you as a son.” 
He turned and briskly walked away before I could even think of
what to say back. Boone was smiling widely and I gave him a quick 
wave. Bash mounted his horse and led the way.  
I thought a lot about the past few days, wondering if maybe there
was  more  to  Boris  than  his  crass,  rude,  and  angry  façade.  I  knew  I 
hadn’t been exactly what he wanted, mostly because he hadn’t given 
 
26
Joyee Flynn
me the chance to even speak with him or get to  know him as Boone 
had. But if this was going to work, I had to try. 
It was a few hours later when we reached the edge of the woods
and Bash stopped his horse next to mine.
“Take this road about ten miles and you will reach the village,” he
explained  as  he  pointed  in  the  direction.  “If  you  can,  talk  to  no  one 
but Mitchell. There are some who live there that are not friends to us. 
They  do  not  like  cursed  men  in  their  woods  and  blame  us  for  just 
about everything they can. Be careful and don’t dawdle or Boris will 
get angry because he will be worried.” 
“Yeah, he paid good money for me,” I said sarcastically before I
could stop myself.
“He’s not as bad as he seems,” Bash replied with a sigh. “It’s
complicated  but  mostly  it’s  guilt  because  he  blames  himself  for  the 
curse. It was his idea to  make a home in the woods. He didn’t know 
that  they  were  controlled  by  a  witch  who  cursed  us  for  coming  onto 
what she considered her land.” 
“That’s terrible!” I couldn’t even imagine how that kind of guilt
could  eat  at  a  man.  No  one  deserved  that  and  it did  explain  a  lot.  “I 
will make haste.” 
“Thank you for doing this, Golden.” He gave me a shy wave and I
nodded as I clicked my tongue and the horse went on his way.
True to his word, it didn’t take long to get to the village. It looked
like most other villages so it was easy to find the store Boris had been 
talking about. The fact that it had a sign saying  General Store might 
have been a hint too.  
“Hello, I’m looking for Mitchell,” I said to the man behind the
counter. “I have wares from Boris.”
“You are their slave?” he asked me, his eyebrows shooting up to
his forehead. “You’re too little to be of use in their trade.”
“My duties will be more in the house and running to town,” I
mumbled as I hung my head in shame. It shouldn’t have hurt that a
 
Golden
27
random  stranger  referred  to  me  as  a  slave.  But  it  did.  “I  have  a  cart 
full from them. Are you Mitchell?” 
“I am and what is your name?” He stepped around the counter,
keeping a wary eye on me.
“Golden,” I answered as I handed him the list. He looked at it as if
it was going to bite him.
“I know what type of slave you are, Golden,” he hissed at me. 
“Be  that  as  it  may,  my  money  is  as  good  as  everyone  else’s,”  I 
said,  proud  my  voice  barely  cracked.  “You  have  a  standing 
arrangement with Boris and this is the list of items he needs.”  
I set the paper down on the counter, realizing that it wasn’t the list
that  offended  him  but  the  possibility  of  having  to  touch  my  hand 
when I tried to give it to him. Then I pulled out one of the gems I had 
brought with me.  
“And this is what I plan to use to buy some goods for myself. Is
that a problem?” He met my gaze then as I set it on top of the list on 
the counter. 
“You could buy half my store with a ruby of that size,” he
whispered, eyeing me over. “How did you get it? Are you a thief?”
“No,” I gasped, tears forming in my eyes. “Not that it’s any of
your business but it seems you lost your manners and won’t find them 
again  until  we  settle  this.  I  am  from  a  wealthy  family,  but  when  my 
mother  died  a  few  months  ago,  she  admitted  I  was  not  my  father’s 
son.  He took  out  his  anger on me since  I  was  the only one left, sold 
me,  and  let  me  take  my  belongings  with  me,  including  my  mother’s 
jewelry.  
“I am just trying to make the best of this and put the pieces back
together  of  my  life.  So  don’t  you  dare  judge  me  or  accuse  me  of 
crimes  I  did  not  commit.”  I  angrily  wiped  away  tears,  upset  with 
myself  for  letting  him  get  to  me.  It  seemed  the  past  few  days  had 
taken  more  of  a  toll  on me  than  I  would  have  liked  to  admit.  “I  just 
want to pick up new sketch pencils, pad, and maybe a few items from 
the apothecary. Is that really too much to ask?” 
 
28
Joyee Flynn
“No,” he said gently, patting my shoulder. “I will handle this list
and pay out the difference. Would you like me to do the same for your 
gem?” 
“Yes please.” 
“Then go pick out what you would like and take a few moments to 
yourself  without  the  pressures  you  have  outside  of  this  store,” 
Mitchell  suggested  with  a  smile.  “We  have  a  nice  selection  of  artist 
materials in the back.” 
“Okay, thank you.” I nodded and walked in that direction, letting
him handle the list and the gem. I might not have gotten the best price 
for such a stone in a small village, but I had a feeling Mitchell was an 
honest man. But then again my judgment was for crap nowadays.  
I roamed the shelf, picking out a gorgeous set of pencils, a few
sketch pads in different sizes, and even decided to buy a paint set and 
brushes. My father had hated that I liked to draw so I had always kept 
things simple that could easily be hidden. I didn’t have to worry about 
him anymore and decided to try and further my art. 
Then I realized I might need to buy more items or set up an
account because if Mitchell had said the gem could buy half his store 
then I seriously doubted he had much gold on him to break down the 
price  of  it.  I  set  my  items  on  the  counter  as  he  kept  working  and 
thought of what else I might want. That’s when I saw it. There was a 
sign stating they had baby livestock out back. 
I followed the arrow to the back door and gasped. There were
goats, chicks, calves, piglets, and puppies. I’d always wanted a pet! If 
I got some chicks then maybe Boris would let me keep them because 
they’d give us eggs. I wanted a piglet but had a sneaking feeling if I 
bought one it would be the same as signing its death sentence because 
he’d be dinner one day. 
I raced back up to Mitchell and asked if he could add to my tab
half a dozen chicks, a cage for them, food, and whatever I would need 
to build a chicken coop. He gave me a funny look, but nodded.

“That’s still not even a fraction of what the gem’s cost is,”
Mitchell  hedged.  “The  apothecary  owes  me  along  with  the  butcher 
and  the  baker.  Would  you  like  to  see  their  wares  to  settle  the 
payment?” 
“We could do that,” I answered as I started to blush. I hadn’t
meant  to  cause  issue  but  I  also  couldn’t  have  left  my  father’s  house 
with sacks of gold pieces. “The rest we could leave as credit for when 
I come next time?” 
“I would appreciate that, Golden.” He gave me a genuine smile
and led me to the butcher as his son took over handling Boris’s items. 
I picked out  several  items,  knowing how to  make  a few  lamb  dishes 
that  would  hopefully  make  the  brothers  happy.  Then  I  went  to  the 
bakery  and  bought  way  more  than  we  would  be able  to  eat  before  it 
started  to  go  bad.  But  all  the  purchases  were  in  line,  nothing  lavish, 
just maybe not what they normally bought. 
I couldn’t say the same about my time at the apothecary. There I
might have gone a little overboard. I bought some scented oils, hoping 
a  little  romantic  effort  might  calm  Boris  a  bit.  Then  there  was  the 
salve that Boone had used on me. That I bought a large jar of because 
I  had  the  feeling  I  would  need  more  of  it.  And  I  bought  several 
different  types  of  tea,  also  in  the  hopes  that  they  might  help  Boris’s 
temper. 
When I was done I’d been in the village almost two hours. Bash
was going to throw a fit and then probably Boris too. I started to get 
nervous  when  Mitchell  was  settling  accounts  with  each  shop  owner 
and deducting it from the price of the gem. I hadn’t meant to take this 
long.  Would  they  think  I  had  run  and  search  my  belongings?  Boris 
would  have  no  compunction  about  ripping  my  room  to  shreds  if  he 
was angry. 
“You are all set, Golden,” Mitchell informed me with a smile
when we were back at his shop. He handed me a bag of gold pieces, 
informing me that  was  for Boris.  Then he handed me another one, a 
 
30
Joyee Flynn
larger  one,  saying  that  was  what  was  left  from  the  gem  and  I  didn’t 
need to have credit for next time. 
I thanked him and tucked them into my jacket on opposite sides of
my body so there was no confusion. Part of me wanted to laugh when 
I saw how all my additional purchases were taking up almost half the 
cart.  It  was  either find humor in  it or worry  Boris was  going to  beat 
me.  
I went with option one. 
The horse had had a good rest and was ready to head home so we 
made good time back to the woods. Bash had been pacing a line in the 
ground, his repeated footprints having mashed the grass down. 
“Why were you so long? Were you hurt? Did they do anything to
you?”  he  asked  in  a  panicked  voice  as  he  eyed  me  over.  “You  look 
fine.” 
“Everything took a bit longer than expected because what I used
to  pay  for  what  I  wanted  wasn’t  exactly  a  few  small  gold  coins,”  I 
answered  as  my  cheeks  heated  up.  “I  ended  up  getting  much  more 
than planned so I didn’t make things uncomfortable with Mitchell and 
having him owe me.” 
He glanced at the cart with wide eyes. “This is going to be
interesting,” he grumbled and then mounted his horse. I didn’t want to 
ask what that meant because I had a sinking suspicion I knew… And 
wouldn’t like it.  
Was my life now just going to be walking on eggshells because a
big  jerk  owned  me?  I  bought  extras  that  we  could  all  eat  and  share. 
Why could I possibly get in trouble for that with a sane person? 
And that thought just about answered that question. Did I know
that Boris was sane?

“You  came  back,”  Boone  greeted  me  as  he  lifted  me  out  of  the 
saddle and hugged me close. “We started to worry.”
“I didn’t mean to make you worry.” I sighed, wanting this to
always  be  my  welcome  and  to  feel  cared  for  as  he  was  making  me 
feel right in that moment. “It seems I shouldn’t pay the shopkeeper for 
a few things with a gem. Things got a little complicated.” 
“Why do you have gems?” Boris growled as he pulled me out of
Boone’s  arms.  “You  stole  from  your  father?  Did  you  steal  from  us 
too?” 
“No! Why does everyone assume I’d just steal?” I exclaimed,
pushing at him with all my might. It didn’t work as I had planned and 
I fell to the ground on my tender ass. “They were my mother’s jewels 
and presents that had been given to me over the years. I would never 
steal  from  you and even if  I did,  the man  sold me. That’s  illegal  but 
everyone seems to gloss over that detail and focus on me being a sex 
slave or thief.” 
I pulled his bag of coins and tossed them at his feet. “I bought
extras for all of us from my own money to try and be nice, to be a part 
of this family instead of just your whore. I was trying here.” 
“I believe you wouldn’t steal, that’s why the idea of you walking
around with gems shocked me,” Boris replied as he picked up the bag. 
Just then the chicks started peeping and he narrowed his  eyes at me. 
“What was that?” 
“I never had a pet and I wanted a pig but then I figured he’d
become  dinner  when  he  got  older.  So  I  got  chicks,  they  can  give  us 
eggs  and  I  can  have  a  pet  we  don’t  have  to  eat,”  I  rambled.  “I  got 
 
32
Joyee Flynn
everything  they  need  though  I  don’t  really  know  how  to  build  a 
chicken coop.” 
“No, take them back,” he growled at me, flashing his sharp teeth
at me.
“I’m not a child. I can have chickens if I want to,” I whispered. He
took  a  step  closer  and  I  curled  into  a  ball,  using  my  arms  to  protect 
my neck and face. “I’ll take them back.” 
“Boris, stop this!” Boone shouted as he shoved his brother, finally
having snapped out of his shock at what was going on. “He can have 
some damn chicks if he wants. I will build the coop and help him take 
care of them. Why can’t he have something of his own? Look at what 
he brought. There’s a full lamb there and enough bread for weeks. He 
bought that for us with his money. When has anyone done something 
like that for us and you’re being a brute over a few chicks?” 
“He doesn’t listen to me,” Boris replied. “He’s a slave, not a
partner.  I  should  be  able  to  tell  him  something  and  not  get  an  extra 
headache because he wants a pet, extra meat coming with him or not.” 
“I can’t do this,” I whispered, rocking myself back and forth,
tuning  out  their  argument.  “I  can’t.  I  can’t  be  a  slave  and  have 
everyone treat me like shit the rest of my life. Mitchell was only nice 
to  me when  I showed him the gem.  Boris  sees  me as a possession,  I 
can’t live like this!” 
I hadn’t even realized I was talking out loud until there was
silence around me. I peeked out from under my arms to see everyone 
staring at me. It was humiliating and I wanted to die right where I sat. 
“What if I bought my freedom? I could pay you back and then
some for what I cost you,” I begged.
“No,” he snarled, pulling away from Boone and forcing me to lie
back on the ground as his large frame surrounded me.  “I like having 
you at my disposal. You are ours to do with what we please, Golden. 
Why would we give that up?” 
 
Golden

“Because you’re not monsters who don’t have a heart,” I
answered as tears clouded my eyes. “Do you really not care if I’m not 
happy or scared of you all the time?” 
“I prefer it.” He leaned in and sniffed my neck. “The scent is
enticing and we are monsters. Never forget that.”
“Then just kill me now,” I pleaded as I closed my eyes. “I just
wanted to do something nice.”
“For yourself,” Boris clarified as he ran his hands over his body.
“You thought if you acted like we were equals and a family, getting 
food  we  all  could  share  like  one,  we  would  treat  you  as  such.  You 
were manipulating us when the one thing I asked you to do for us you 
forgot.” 
“I wasn’t manipulating anyone!” I exclaimed as I beat my fists
against his chest. “I’m not the bad guy here.” I froze as the rest of his 
words sunk in. “I forgot the books.” 
“You did,” he agreed as he grabbed both my wrists and pinned
them over my head. “And now you will pay for it.”
“No!” Boone snarled and tackled his brother off of me. “This
madness  stops,  Boris.  Golden  isn’t  our  enemy  and  isn’t  property. 
You’re going to make him hate us or run. Is that what you want?” 
“Run to where?” he threw back, trying to hit Boone in the face.
“He doesn’t know his way out of the forest and he’d be a fugitive.”
I stopped listening after that, having my fill of all this drama and
anger. I stood with a heavy heart and upset stomach and walked over 
to  the  chicks.  Lifting  the  cage  out  of  the  cart,  I  set  it  on  the  ground 
and did  the same with  their food. Then  I  opened the bag, took  out  a 
handful, and opened the tiny door. 
All six started peeping as they hopped out and started eating out
of my hands. “I’m sorry, guys. I just wanted to give you a nice place 
to  live  where  you  could  be  loved  and  lay  some  eggs.  It  wasn’t 
supposed  to  be  like  this.  I  was  going  to  be  happy  and  take  over  my 
father’s  businesses  when  it  was  time,  giving  lots  of  people  jobs, 
 
34

helping out  the town when  I could.  Sure,  I’d never marry a nice  girl 
like my parents would have wanted, but I could have still been happy. 
“Now I brought you into this misery and you’re too young to
know such realities about life.” I sniffled, wiping away a tear with my 
forearm. “I think I’m too young to know them too, sometimes. I just 
thought together we could deal with them and I’d have some friends 
even if you were animals.” 
I think I temporarily lost my mind, talking to chicks while the
brothers  were  duking  it  out  around  me.  I  glanced  up.  Oh,  all  three 
were  fighting  now.  Splendid.  They  were  still  going  at  it  when  the 
chicks were done eating and I put them back in the cage. I sighed and 
set  it  in  the  cart  where  they  would  be  safe.  Then  I  started  unloading 
what I could carry. 
After that I went to my room and collected all the books I could
hold  in  my  arms,  knowing  there  was  no  way  I  was  lifting  the  trunk 
full  of  them.  I  walked  back  outside  and  dropped  them  to  the  ground 
before  putting  my  fingers  in  my  mouth  and  letting  out  a  whistle. 
Instantly they paused the fight and turned to me. 
“Sorry I forgot the books. These are some of what I have but
you’re  welcome  to  all  of  them.  I’m  going  to  start  making  supper.”  I 
turned to go back inside. 
“Golden?” Boone whispered as he moved away from them and
towards me.
“It doesn’t matter, Boone. It is what it is. What’s the point of
fighting it? I’ll take the chicks back tomorrow and just live here until I 
die as  a sex slave no one really wants  but  I’m  all  you could  buy. At 
least I can still do some sketching. I like doing that.” 
Yeah, maybe I really had cracked. I just couldn’t take any more of
anything. No more fighting, no more issues, no more being in trouble 
or  not  what  someone  wanted.  I  was  just  done.  They  wanted  to  fuck 
me and for me to be obedient… Fine. Everyone in my life had finally 
pushed me too far where the will to fight left me. They won. I was a 
slave. 
 
Golden

And this slave had to make dinner so the lamb I purchased with
one  of  my  mother’s  jewels  didn’t  go  bad.  I  found  spices  and  herbs, 
rubbing them on the meat as I started the stove. Then I got the lay of 
the  kitchen  and  put  the  bread  and  items  away.  I  realized  then  that  I 
hadn’t eaten all day besides a few samples the baker had given me to 
try. 
But I wasn’t hungry. I didn’t want to eat or do anything really.  
“Golden, can we talk?” Boone asked hesitantly as he walked into 
the kitchen through the back door.
“I was going to take a nap if that’s okay,” I answered as I slid the
pan of lamb into the oven. “It’s been a long day and the food won’t be 
ready for hours.” 
“May I join you?” 
“I don’t have a say in anything anymore, Boone. Do as you want.” 
Maybe  I  was  being  mean,  taking  my  feelings  out  on  the  wrong 
person. But I was numb and didn’t really care if I sounded harsh. 
“Do you want me to? Would you like me to hold you while you
take  a  nap?”  I  glanced  at  him  then,  taking  in  the  fact  that  he  looked 
equal parts worried and sad. 
“I don’t care. None of it matters anymore.” I shrugged and walked
out  the  other  door  to  the  hallway  and  up  the  stairs.  It  didn’t  register 
that  I  was  alone  until  I  was  in  my  room.  I  undressed,  tossing  my 
clothes  over the chair by the window,  and  crawled into bed. My life 
was over as I knew it and it was never going to get any better. 
The sooner I got that through my thick skull the better off I would
be and less often I’d be in trouble.
* * * *
 
“Dinner’s ready!” I called out the back door later that evening. It 
had taken a little longer than I would have thought and I waited to get 
yelled  at  the  entire  time  I  was  cooking  just  for  that  fact.  But  no  one 
 
36
Joyee Flynn
ever  came  into  the  kitchen.  I  never  saw  any  of  them  and  all  three 
brothers left me alone. 
Just as I pulled out the pan the door flew open and I started to
drop it. I caught it just in time except without the towel covering my 
hand  and  I  grasped  the  hot  metal.  I  yelped  in  pain  and  was  about  to 
drop  it  when  fur-covered,  large  hands  took  the  pan  from  me  with  a 
different towel. It was Boris but I didn’t acknowledge his help or look 
at  him.  I  simply  went  to  the  sink  and  pumped  some  water  into  the 
basin, letting the cool water soothe the burn. 
“Everything’s on the table that you should need. If not, let me
know later and I will make sure it’s there next meal.” I turned to leave 
before they could say anything but my luck wasn’t that good. 
“You’re not joining us?” Boris asked, his tone getting dark. But
then again… When wasn’t it?
“Our servants didn’t eat with us and I knew slaves wouldn’t then
either,”  I  answered  with  a  shrug  and  started  to  push  open  the  door 
with my good hand. 
“You need to eat, Golden,” Boone said gently. 
“I’m  not  hungry, thank  you.  I’ll be in  my  room if anyone needs 
me.”
“Bash will be up there after dinner to fuck you,” Boris informed
me quietly, almost sounding concerned suddenly. Almost.
“As you wish.” I darted out the door and away from them. It
sucked that this was my life, but I wasn’t going to hope anymore that 
we could make it work so we cared about each other. They wanted to 
use me, fine. But that didn’t mean that I was going to try for more. I’d 
do  what  they  told  me,  when  they  told  me,  and  hopefully  they’d  just 
leave me alone the rest of the time. 
I used the one bathroom to bathe and then one of the oils I got
earlier  to  stretch  myself  out.  I  didn’t  bother  re-dressing  or  kidding 
myself  that  he  cared  what  I  looked  like  or  did.  They  wanted  a  hole, 
okay,  but  I  was  going  to  try  and  make  things  as  painless  for  me  as 
possible.

“Come in,” I called out a bit later when there was a knock at the
door. Bash entered and quietly closed the door behind him. “How do 
you want me?” 
“Um, whatever you like best,” he said nervously. He couldn’t
have been any older than my age so I doubted, if they’d been trapped 
in Withering Woods for seven years, that he’d ever been with anyone.  
“Doesn’t matter to me.” I shrugged and flipped back the covers.
He looked away from me as his cheeks heated up. Shit. Now I had to 
deal  with  a  blushing  virgin  and  help  him  through  this?  “How  about 
you get undressed?” 
“I can do that.” Bash quickly got naked and that’s when I notice
he wasn’t hard. I mean he was so not hard that I started to realize this 
might  not  be  about  him  being  a  virgin.  When  he  was  naked  he 
crawled into the bed with me, careful not to touch me. 
“Bash, this only works if you want me,” I said gently as I turned
on my side to face him.
“It’s not you,” he rambled, his eyes wide. “You’re pretty for a guy
it’s  just—”  He  snapped  his  mouth  closed  so  fast  I  bet  he  bit  his 
tongue.  
Realization dawned on me then. “You’re straight. You like girls.” 
“Yes,” he groaned as he covered his face with his hands. “There is 
a girl from the village. She got lost in the woods a few years ago and 
we met. I helped her and she comes and visits me. I love her, Golden. 
My  brothers  would  never  approve  though  and  I  don’t  know  how  to 
tell them.” 
“They wouldn’t approve of you being straight?” Yeah, I didn’t get
that one.
“No, wanting someone from the village. They all think we’re
monsters,”  he  admitted  with  a  sigh.  His  hands  slipped  away  and  he 
thumped  his  fists  on  the  bed.  “But  Mary  Ellen  is  different.  She’s 
special and I love her. I’d do anything for her.” 
“Have you told her this?”
 
38
Joyee Flynn
“No, of course not,” Bash answered, his eyes wide. “She couldn’t
love a monster.”
“You’re not a monster, Bash,” I giggled as I took his hand in
mine.  “You’re  so  not  a  monster  that  it’s  almost  funny  you  think 
yourself one. She keeps coming back to visit. I mean she has to since 
you  can’t  leave  but  she  chooses  to  come  visit.  Something’s  there, 
Bash. Tell her you love her and let everything fall as it may. Trust me 
on this, you don’t want to wait until it’s too late. You’ll never forgive 
yourself.” 
“Did you love someone back home you never told?” he asked as
he rolled onto his side to face me.
“Not like you. My mother and I had a fight right before she died. I
never  got  to  fix  it  before  she  passed  and  it  eats  at  you.  Life  is  short 
and bad things happen, Bash. What if she doesn’t know how you feel 
and agrees to marry another? Just tell her because the worst that will 
happen  is  she  won’t  feel  the  same.  At  least  you  will  know  but  not 
confessing could keep you from something more.” 
“Thank you, Golden.” He leaned over and kissed my cheek. “I’m
sorry I don’t want you but you already have two idiots to put up with. 
I can’t imagine you’re sad you don’t have a third.” 
“Either way, living here will never be what I want,” I admitted
sadly. I tried to fake a smile for him but it didn’t work. He nodded his 
understanding  and  got  back  out  of  bed.  I  turned  away  so  it  didn’t 
seem  like  I  was  staring  at  the  straight  guy.  He  quickly  dressed  and 
wished me a good night before he left. 
Yeah, I doubted it would be a good night. The way things were
going, I didn’t think I’d ever have any good nights again.

Chapter 5
 
I  awoke  to  my  door  opening  sometime  later  in  the  night.  I  knew 
not  to  be  frightened,  but  I  wasn’t  exactly  excited  to  have  a  visitor 
either. The bed dipped and  I didn’t move or  acknowledge they  were 
there. 
“I know you’re awake, Golden,” Boris said quietly as he pulled
back  the  covers  and  slid  into  bed  with  me.  “I  heard  your  breathing 
pick up.” I didn’t say anything because he didn’t ask a question and I 
was tired. Secondly, I was learning there’s nothing to say to Boris that 
didn’t get me in trouble. 
I shivered when I felt his hands move down my body and he
pulled me close. I might have hated the man but I did like the feeling 
of  him  even  if  he  was  too  rough  at  times.  Then  his  cock  rubbed 
against my hole and I squirmed in his arms. 
“I built your chicken coop and found straw to lay in it. The chicks
are  safe  and  have  been  fed,”  he  whispered  in  my  ear.  He  looked  up 
and saw the oil on the table next to my bed. “Is this what you would 
like me to use? Is that what’s making you smell so good?” 
“Yes please,” I answered, turning enough so I could see his face
as he reached for it. “So I can keep the chicks? Why?”
“Because there is no reason you shouldn’t be able to and I was a
monster to  have treated  you that way.”  I didn’t  know what  to  say  as 
he  slicked  up  his  cock. Boris  set  the  oil  back  down  on  the  table  and 
moved his  fingers to  my hole. Was  he actually  going to  make sure  I 
was prepared this time? 
“Thank you,” I whispered, not sure if I meant for letting me keep
the chicks and building the coop or that he was being gentle with me.

“The supper you made was amazing, Golden,” he said hesitantly
as  he  pushed  two  fingers  inside  of  me.  When  he  saw  I  could  take 
more, he slid in another and sawed them back and forth. “I can’t think 
the last time I’ve feasted that well.” 
“I’m glad you liked it.” Everyone wants to hear they’re a good
cook. What I didn’t understand was why he was being so nice to me. I 
started to roll onto my stomach, knowing that’s how I’d end up. 
“I want it like this,” Boris growled as he held me on my side. 
“As you wish.” I relaxed into the bed, my head against his chest as 
I pulled one leg up to give him better room.
“I want you to want it like this as well.” Oh goodie, here came the
anger. I braced for it, cursing that he was fingering me when he was 
pissed.  He  could  do  a  lot  of  damage  with  those  hands.  Their  fingers 
weren’t claws but they didn’t have human fingernails either. “But it is 
my fault that you don’t.” 
“What?” I asked, not sure of the turn this conversation had taken.
Was he admitting he’d been wrong?
“I don’t blame you for not wanting me after how I’ve acted.” He
pulled his fingers from my hole and pushed the head of his dick in. I 
moaned and held on to my knee tightly. “I wouldn’t want to be with 
someone like me either.” 
Still I didn’t reply. What was there to say? Agree he was an ass?
That would go over well. Plus, he had been nice to me before when I 
was leaving for the village and then the next time he was a jerk again. 
His  mood  swings  were  insufferable  and  I  wasn’t  going  to  play  into 
one  of  the  nice  ones  in  hopes  that  there  wouldn’t  be  another  mean 
one. Because there would be. 
Boris moved so he was surrounding me, one knee by my ass and
the  other  between  my  legs.  Then  he  pushed  my  leg  up  even  farther, 
holding it there as his other hand moved along my back. 
“I can be better. You just have to give me time.” 
“As you wish,” I said again, acknowledging what he was saying. I 
didn’t believe it for a second though. Either Boone had kicked his ass,
 
Golden
41
he  felt  bad  about  accusing  me  of  being  a  thief,  or  he  simply  had  a 
clear moment without any anger. 
It wouldn’t last. 
“Are you going to say anything else?” he asked, annoyance in his 
tone as he slowly pushed more of his cock inside of me.
“Thank you for making sure I was stretched and using extra oil.”
Yeah, it was lame but it was the best I had right then! Did he want me 
to  lie  and  tell  him  I  believed  him?  Then  again,  I  guess  he  hoped  I 
wouldn’t have to lie. 
“Do you just try and upset me?”  
I  gasped  when  he  slammed  the  rest  of  the  way  into  me.  I  turned 
my head enough to look at his chest, not able to meet his gaze. “Either 
deal with my truthful answers or I will start having to lie to you which 
I don’t want to do. Your choice.” He lifted my chin so I had to look at 
him. “Believe me, the last thing I want is your anger, okay? I’m doing 
what you want and being complacent but don’t ask me to just tell you 
what you want to hear.” 
He nodded as he leaned closer to me. My eyes went wide and I
started squirming.
“What are you doing?” I asked as I pulled my chin from his hand. 
“Kissing you,” he growled. “Boone said I should be nicer, gentle 
with you and that you like to be kissed.”
“He also asked me.” I wanted to smack myself for blurting that
out. It would only set Boris off. So I did the only thing I could think 
of. I quickly lifted my head and gave him the world’s fastest kiss. 
Boris’s eyes filled with heat as he stared at my lips, licking his
own. “May I have a proper kiss now?”
“Watch your teeth please.” His upper lip curled up and I sighed.
“You  like  to  be  vigorous  and  powerful.  It  stands  to  reason  that  you 
would  kiss  like  that  and  I  like  my  tongue  where  it  is.  You  know  I 
don’t think you hideous or a monster, I get hard when you touch me. 
I’m just reminding you to be careful if you ever want another kiss.” 
 
42
Joyee Flynn
“That’s fair and logical,” he conceded with a nod. I wanted to
pump my fist in the air at the small victory. Maybe I could have a real 
conversation  with  Boris  after  all.  I  moaned  as  he  licked  my  lips, 
opening for him as he started thrusting.  
Hell must have frozen over because he wasn’t pounding into me
and  I  didn’t  even  slide  up  the  bed.  Granted  he  was  still  strong  and 
huge  so  it  wasn’t  like  he  was  treating  me  like  glass…  But  he  was 
acting as if I could be hurt and cared that I wasn’t.  
“What else do you like?” he asked me and I had to keep from
swallowing my tongue to keep the shock at bay.
“Touch me,” I purred as I moved his hand to my cock. He rubbed
the heel of his hand against me and the friction was glorious while his 
soft  fur  was  a  maddening  contrast  I  loved.  “Boris,  oh  heavens  that’s 
good, yeah, like that.” 
“You are so breathtaking,” he cooed in my ear as he moved his
hips faster. “I want more than a slave, Golden, but if the choice is you 
leaving or keeping you as one I will choose to keep you as a slave.” 
And just like that I didn’t want him touching me. I went limp and
felt my erection leave as tears filled my eyes. “Get off me.”
“No,” he snarled as he kept stroking me. “This was working. You
wanted me, dammit! Get hard again.”
“Just fuck me then and go away,” I cried, covering my face as the
tears came back.
“I don’t understand.” He shook me in frustration. “I’m trying here,
really  trying  and  still  I  can’t  do  anything  right  by  you.”  I  was 
officially  scared  at  the  way  he  was  flipping  out  and  on  instinct  I 
reached up and slapped him across the face. 
“You’re scaring me,” I whispered when his eyes filled with rage.
It  was  a  stupid  move,  mostly  because  it  didn’t  work.  Hell,  his  head 
hadn’t  even  turned  from  the  blow.  “Calm  down  before  I  start 
screaming for Boone or Bash because I think you’re going to kill me 
you’re so pissed off at me.” 
Boris’s face instantly deflated. “I would never kill you. You—”
 
Golden
43
“Cost a lot of money. I know,” I grumbled. 
“You are special,” he countered as he turned me so I was flat on 
my back. I gasped as he moved my leg to the other side of his body, 
his  cock  sinking  deeper  into  me.  “You  are  special,  Golden,  and  you 
drive me insane because I can’t say anything right to you and I handle 
everything  wrong.  So  please,  tell  me  what  I  did  wrong  to  make  you 
stop enjoying this?” 
“You really don’t get it, do you?” I asked, searching his eyes.
When  all  I  saw  was  confusion  and  frustration  shining  back  at  me  I 
sighed. “You’re kissing me, touching me, as you take me and bring up 
that  I’m  your  possession  and  your  slave.  Not  exactly  intimate-time 
talk, Boris. And you have thrown that fact in my face at least a dozen 
times since I’ve arrived. Do you know what that’s like? To know I’m 
just a piece of ass possession to you?” 
“I’m saying I don’t want you to be but I don’t want you to leave
either. What was wrong with that?”
“Then just say you like me and like the way I feel,” I suggested.
“Using the word slave and reminding me I really don’t have a choice 
in all of this ruins the fun.” 
“But I asked you this time,” he reminded me as he leaned over
and kissed my neck. “I asked and have been gentle. I’m sorry I don’t 
do  things  the  right  way  but  you  are  a  person  to  me.”  I  nodded  but 
didn’t say anything or get hard and he sighed. “Please tell me how to 
fix this. I want to take you like two men who want to be together, not 
just pound into someone who deals with it as being his lot in life.” 
“Do you really mean that?” I asked hesitantly. Boris lifted his
head  and  nodded,  letting  me  see  the  truth  in  his  eyes.  “Lift  my  legs 
over your hips and rub your hands up my body like I’m the best thing 
you’ve ever felt below you.” 
“You are though,” he mumbled as he did what I asked. 
“What do you like about me? What makes me desirable to you?” 
He wanted to know what to do and how to fix this but he had to work 
for it too.

“You always smell so good and it’s not the oils or the soap when
you wash,” he admitted as he stared at my chest. I thrust my hips up 
and  he  got  the  idea,  moving  slowly  as  he  touched  me.  His  fingers 
glided over my ribs as if counting them. “Your skin is soft while your 
body is still lean enough that I can surround every inch of you.” 
“I like that you’re so much bigger than me too,” I whispered as I
moved  my  body  in  time  with  his.  “And  I  love  how  strong  you  are 
when you take me now that I know you care that I’m a person and not 
just a hole to get off with.” 
“No, not just a hole no matter how crass I’ve spoken.” He used his
tongue against my nipple as his hand moved down to my hard-on. “I 
was worried you’d think me a monster and hurt me so I tried to put a 
wall between us. It didn’t work and I ended up hurting—” 
“Talk later about serious things,” I warned as he almost did it
again. Boris nodded and rubbed my cock. “What else do you like?”
“The way you see life. You thought by buying the chicks that you
would save them from being dinner when people eat chickens all the 
time.”  He  smiled  at  me  and  I  couldn’t  get  over  how  much  more 
handsome he was when he smiled.  
“I like that you don’t just apologize with words but built the
chicken coop as well.” I realized now I was so into the moment again 
that  the  time  for  talk  was  over.  “There’s  something  I’ve  always 
wanted to try.” 
“Anything, Golden,” he immediately agreed.  
“Lift me onto your lap and thrust up into me as hard as you can,” I 
begged as I tightened my hole around his cock. He moaned and did it, 
spreading his legs wider for leverage and going further into me. “Yes! 
Oh yes, this is what I’ve always wanted. Harder.” 
“I knew we could fit,” he grunted as he thrust into me with all his
might.  Granted  he  couldn’t  do  it  as  hard  as  normal  moving  up  and 
with me sitting on him like that but the forceful jabs hit my pleasure 
gland every time.

“Boris, yes, fuck me,” I screamed as my dick rubbed against his
ripped abs and short fur. “Tell me you want only me and not just my 
ass.” 
“I want all of you, Golden. I need you.” I wasn’t sure about that
but I didn’t think he was lying either.
“Faster,” I whimpered, just needing a little more to get over the
edge. He did and I cried out as I came all over us, harder than I might 
ever have come before. Boris followed me right over, groaning as his 
body shook and his cock exploded inside of me. 
“Thank you,” he gasped as he peppered my neck and face with
kisses. I wasn’t sure what he was thanking me for but I was happy to 
do  that  again.  Now  if  we  could  just  keep  the  peace  between  us  for 
more  than  half  a  day  I  would  maybe  hope  my  life  wouldn’t  suck 
forever.

Chapter 6
 
The next morning  I woke up to  Boone’s tongue licking my hole. 
“Are you still mad at me?”
“No,” I moaned and spread my legs wider. “Was never mad, just
depressed and giving up.”
“Don’t give up yet, Golden,” he begged as his oiled fingers teased
my hole.  “Let  me show you how  good life can be here.  Let  me love 
you.” 
“Yes,” I agreed, wanting everything he offered and more. “Make
love to me, Boone.”
“With pleasure.” He pushed his fingers inside of me and quickly
stretched  me  out.  Then  he  flipped  me  over  and  molded  his  body  to 
mine while I was on all fours. It was awkward to kiss but we made it 
work.  He  took  me  tenderly,  every  inch  that  could  possibly  touch  of 
our bodies doing so and moving together. “Need more.” 
I didn’t understand until he pulled me up onto my knees so the
angle was tighter. He wrapped his arm around me as he kissed me and 
stroked  my  cock.  I  reached  back  and  held  on  to  his  hips  as  I  pulled 
myself to meet his thrusts. 
“This is what I wanted for us,” Boone whispered in my ear. “To
come together like this and to let you see it’s you I want and not just 
anyone because I was lonely.” 
“How can you know you want me so much already?” I asked,
confused at his strong feelings already even though I felt the same.
“Because everything about you is perfect to me and I would do
anything for you. What can I do to prove it?”

“Just love me, Boone,” I whispered, wanting it more than
anything in the world. We weren’t there yet and I didn’t want him to 
lie.  Instead  he  nodded  and  kissed  me  some  more.  When  he  started 
picking  up  the  pace  I  couldn’t  hold  it  back  anymore,  coming  with  a 
cry of his name moments before he finished inside of me. 
After we were spent we fell to the bed in a sweaty heap, wrapped
around each other. “That was indescribable, my darling.”
“I feel—” I started to say but the door to my room was opened
with such force it banged off the wall.
“How did you remove the curse?” Boris bellowed as he stormed
into the room. “Why Bash?”
“What?” I asked in shock, thinking he finally lost it. 
“My god,” Boone gasped as he sat up, pulling out of me. I looked 
at  him  and  followed  his  gaze.  There  was  a  stranger  standing  there 
with a smile on his lips so wide I was surprised it didn’t jump off his 
face. 
“Holy shit!” I yelped and scrambled under the covers. “Who is
that man?”
“Bash,” Boone and Boris said together. I froze in trying to cover
up my indecency and took a better look.
“How?” I whispered as I took in his eyes, seeing the man instead
of the cursed hybrid. He was still a big man but no longer over seven 
feet,  closer  to  six,  and  any  trace  of  beast  gone.  “How  did  this 
happen?” 
“I can’t tell you,” Bash admitted quietly. “When the magic was
lifted  I tried to  tell  Boris  but  it was like there’s  a trick to  it  all and  I 
can’t speak the words.” 
“He said you did this,” Boris growled. 
“No,  I  said  Golden  gave  me  the  key  to  how  to  break  it,”  Bash 
corrected as he gave me a smile. I stared at him as if he was mad and 
he  got  the  hint.  “The  advice  you  gave  me  yesterday.  I  did  it  and  it 
broke the curse.” 
 
48
Joyee Flynn
“The advice,” I parroted and then it hit me. “That advice? You
saw her?”
“Yes,” he answered with a nod. “She’s agreed to marry me.” 
“You’re straight?” Boris and Boone exclaimed. “What girl? 
“Okay, all brothers out and downstairs so the youngest can catch 
you  up,”  I  said  with  a  chuckle  and  eye  roll.  It  ended  up  being  the 
wrong  thing  to  say  because  everyone  focused  on  me  then  and  they 
weren’t happy like I was. 
“How could you tell Bash how to lift the curse and not me?”
Boone  whispered  as  he  moved  away  from  me.  “I  thought  you  cared 
for me.” 
“I do, Boone,” I gasped and waved at Bash. “I didn’t know my
advice would lift the curse and if I understand him right, it’s not like a 
spell you can repeat. It has to be something he feels and admits.” 
“I knew you would hurt me,” Boris shouted and punched the wall.
In  a  flash  I  was  off  the  bed  and  cowering  behind  it  as  he  turned  his 
anger on me. “You’re going to the whorehouse tomorrow.” 
“No!” the three of us exclaimed together. 
“Stop this and come talk to me while Golden gets cleaned up and 
dressed,”  Bash  demanded.  “This  is  not  his  fault.  I  told  you  that  he 
couldn’t  have  known.  Telling  you  what  he  suggested  won’t  change 
anything or lift the curse for you guys. It didn’t work like that.” When 
they  were  both  still  frowning  at  me  he  decided  to  switch  tactics. 
“Don’t you want to meet my bride?” 
“Yes, very much so,” Boone admitted as he got to his feet and
walked towards the door. He stopped in front of Boris and poked the 
man in the chest with his finger. “He’s not going to the whorehouse, 
so  stop  letting  your  temper  spew  shit  you  regret  later.  We’ll  talk  to 
him  and  figure  out  why  this  happened  after  we  congratulate  our 
brother. Understand?” 
“Agreed.” They left my room, leaving me there to sit alone on the
floor  in  shock  at  what  had  taken  place.  Boris  went  to  close  the  door 
and held up a key. “But that doesn’t mean I’m not going to lock you 
 
Golden
49
in here until you tell us how to break the curse.” He slammed it closed 
before I could say a word. 
I knew it. We couldn’t go half a day before I was back to hating
him. And even worse? I couldn’t get cleaned up if I was locked in the 
room. The bathroom was down the hall.  
I stood up, sighing as I then flopped back to the bed. Boris had
come to me in the middle of the night and now Boone this morning. 
That  was  maybe  six  hours  of  good  times  before  drama  and  anger 
again. If anyone dared pick on me for being constantly depressed, all 
over the place, and a tear factory I was going to lock them in a room 
with Boris for a week and laugh. 
Just as copious amounts of cum were drying all over me I
remembered that I had a glass of water by the bed. It wasn’t exactly 
the best bath I’d ever had, but I made it work. I didn’t even bother to 
get dressed though. What was the point? Boris or Boone would come 
back  eventually,  want  more  sex,  and  then  everything  would  be  my 
fault again. 
If I didn’t get sold to the whorehouse first. 
I sat on the bed, not sure what to do or how I was going to explain 
this one to them without just telling them. And what if I did tell them 
the  truth?  Boris  would  surely  think  I  was  lying.  Boone  would 
probably believe me and then say he loved me just to break the curse. 
But when it didn’t work we’d never be able to recover from that. 
How could my life have ended up like this? Instead of them being
happy I inadvertently helped Bash… I was the bad guy?
I knelt on the floor and opened up one of my bags, pulling out a
framed  picture  of  my  mother.  Staring  at  it  for  several  moments,  I 
started  to  get  angry.  “How  could  you  do  this  to  me?  Nothing  would 
have changed if you hadn’t told father I wasn’t his. Or if you had told 
us  both  years  ago,  he  could  have  gotten  over  it.  I  could  have  found 
my real father even! You should have just drowned me as a baby.” 
That’s when I realized the time had come to run. I finally was at
the point where possible death and living on the run was better than
 
50

facing Boris’s wrath again.  I quickly dressed and packed as much of 
my  jewelry-lined  clothes  into  a  bag,  forsaking  all  my  other 
possessions.  
Then I opened the window and checked to make sure no one was
around.  I  heard  them  at  the  back  of  the  house  and  dropped  my  bag 
down.  Realizing  I’d  break  a  limb  in  the  fall,  I  quickly  pulled  the 
sheets  off  the  bed  and  tied  them  together.  I  pushed  the  bed  to  the 
window  and  used  the  weight  to  secure  the  sheets.  Then  I  climbed 
down the side of the house, careful of the windows in case someone 
was looking out of them.  
Once I was on the ground safely I picked up my bag and ran. I
couldn’t  stay  there  and  live  like  this.  Yes,  I  was  falling  in  love  with 
Boone and had feelings for Boris. But nothing was going to change. I 
was  still  their  slave  and  I  couldn’t  live  a  life  like  that,  waiting  for 
Boris to blow up at me over something else yet again. 
I ran for as long as I could, wishing I had some provisions. I was
thirsty and hungry already, not even having a chance to eat breakfast 
before this all happened. Then I walked for what seemed like hours. I 
swore I was heading in the same direction Bash had taken me to the 
village but everything looked the same. I was lost. 
Watch, I’d end up walking right back to the house I was running
from after all this effort. I collapsed to the ground, long since needing 
a break. Several minutes later I heard the stomping of horses running 
and ducked behind a tree. 
“This is your fault,” Boone bellowed as they came closer to where
I was.
“I know it is. Stop reminding me and keep your eyes open for
him,” Boris shouted right back. “His scent went this way and he’s got 
to be close. Golden!” 
Right, because I was going to announce where I was. But they
were  closing  in  on  me  and  would  find  me.  I  got  to  my  feet  and  ran, 
hiding  behind  trees  as  I  went  in  the  hopes  that  maybe  I  would  be 
hidden from them. 
 
Golden
51
“There! Golden, stop!” Boone yelled as I heard his horse head
towards my direction. I’d never be able to outrun a horse but I wasn’t 
ready to give up yet either. I kept running as fast as I could, ignoring 
the  horses  and  men  barreling  down  on  me.  My  foot  got  caught  in 
some underbrush and I went down hard and heard a sickening snap of 
my shoulder. 
“Shit,” Boris growled as he jumped down from his horse. I bit my
lip to  keep in  the cry of  pain  as  I tried my best  to  scurry away from 
him.  Yeah,  I  knew  trying  was  futile  at  this  point  but  sometimes 
instinct just kicked in. He was pissed before and now that I’d run he 
was going to be livid. “Why did you run from us?” 
I just stared at him like he’d grown a second and third head. Was
he really that dense?
“Don’t touch me,” I screamed as he crouched down by me. “You
said you’d never hurt me! You promised.”
“I did,” he replied with a nod. “Why do you think that has
changed?”
“There’s a hole in the wall of my room that shows how little
control  you  have  over  your  anger,”  I  answered  firmly,  clutching  my 
limp arm to my body. “And once again you’re saying I’m going to the 
whorehouse. I thought last night meant something to you.” 
“It did,” he sighed and lifted me into his arms, my fighting barely
affecting  him.  “Stop,  okay.  Just  stop.  You  dislocated  your  shoulder 
and you’re only hurting yourself.” 
“Where’s my bag?” I whimpered, trying to see the ground where
I’d fallen.
“I have it,” Boone said quietly, holding it up for me to see. 
“It’s mine.” I held out  my good hand for it, praying he’d give it 
back and not realize the fortune that was inside of it.
“What’s in there that’s so important, Golden?” Boris asked as he
turned me in his arms so I was facing him.
“My only possible salvation from you or the whorehouse if you
send me there,” I whispered as I closed my eyes. “Can I please just
 
52
Joyee Flynn
have my bag? It’s the only way I can buy myself back when you sell 
me and I can be free of all of this.” 
“We’re not selling you,” Boris growled as he took off my jacket. 
“Why not?” I yelled, having made a quick decision. “At least that 
way  I  could  pay the madam  more than what  she paid  for me and be 
free.” 
“There’s no gold in this bag besides this,” Boone said curiously,
holding up the pouch of coins Mitchell had given me.
“You opened my bag?” I whispered, hurt because I never thought
Boone would be the one to betray me. “How could you?”
“How could you run, Golden?” he threw right back. 
“Yes, because being locked in a room until I told you something I 
couldn’t  was  a much better option,”  I  answered  sarcastically.  I think 
the  pain  in  my  shoulder  overrode  my  sense  of  self-preservation. 
“Boris was redecorating with his fist and once again he scared the shit 
out of me. I can’t live constantly worried I’m going to incur his rage. 
It wasn’t even half a day between outbursts. My emotions are all over 
the place, I’m constantly crying, haven’t eaten for days because of the 
stress.” 
“You do seem a little thinner,” Boris agreed. I turned to him and
narrowed  my  eyes  at  him,  letting  the  disgust  for  him  show  on  my 
face. 
“What do you care? There’s enough of me to still hold on to so
you can fuck your slave, right?” He winced at my words, turning his 
gaze  away  from  mine.  “There’s  bones  to  break  if  you  decide  to  use 
me as a punching bag. My mouth still works for your pleasure and—” 
“Stop,” he whispered, shaking his head. “Please just stop. I’m
sorry.”
“I’m done with your apologies. You say you’re sorry, do
something nice, but then each time your anger gets worse to the point 
that I was scared enough of you to run.” 
“Holy shit,” Boone exclaimed and I groaned. “He has a fortune in
this bag.”
 
Golden
53
“Great, just fucking great,” I growled as Boris set me on my feet.
He  knelt  down  next  to  Boone  and  pulled  out  one  of  my  jackets  that 
William  had  sewed  gems in  to  make  it look  as  if there was  costume 
jewelry. 
“These are real gems?” Boris asked in a whisper as he glanced at
me. Suddenly my feet were interesting and I looked at those instead. 
“Is this all of it?” 
“It’s mine,” I whimpered, holding my arm to my chest. “Most of
those  were  gifts  or  my  mother’s.  You  said  I  could  have  my  own 
belongings  when  I  got  here.  Servants  and  slaves  can  have  their  own 
possessions. Just because you found them doesn’t make them yours.” 
“We don’t want them,” Boone said in disgust as he threw one of
my coats on the bag. “We just want to know what’s going on, Golden. 
How  could  you  not  tell  us  you  carried  a  fortune  sewn  into  your 
clothes?” 
“Right, because I’ve known you long enough to be able to trust
you.”
“Don’t you get it?” he shouted as he got to his feet and threw his
hands  in  the  air.  “I  love  you,  Golden.  I  want  to  mate  you  and  make 
you my partner. I never wanted you to be my slave or—” He stopped 
and gasped, looking a little green around the gills. “What’s happening 
to me?” 
“What happened to Bash I’m guessing,” I mumbled as I plopped
down on the ground. My whole body hurt and this was not how I ever 
wanted someone to  say they loved me. And even worse, if the curse 
was being lifted… He really meant it.  
And I had run from him. This could really be bad. 
Boone  cried  out  and  sank  to  his  knees  as  his  face  reshaped  into 
that of a human instead of partly beast. The fur fell off his body as if 
he’d  had  a  haircut,  and  his  body  shrank  slightly.  When  the 
transformation  was  over  he  was  the  most  breathtaking  man  I’d  ever 
seen. He moved his hands over his body, laughing in shock and joy as 
he checked to make sure everything was there. 
 
54
Joyee Flynn
Yeah, he was in shock. 
“That’s why  you couldn’t  tell  us,” Boris  whispered as he  got  up 
slowly, staring at Boone. “Who knew something as insane as true love 
could fix a curse?” 
“There’s nothing insane about love,” I replied, shaking my head at
his  attitude.  “It’s  the  strongest  emotion  there  is.  But  it’s  also 
something I couldn’t tell you to do to reverse the curse. You just have 
to feel it and admit it aloud.” 
I was looking at Boris when Boone dove in front of me and
cupped my face in his hands. “I do love you, Golden. Will you do me 
the honor of mating me and being mine forever? No being a slave, no 
running,  no  ever  having  to  worry  about  anything  ever  again.  I  will 
take care of you and we will be together always.” 
“What about Boris?” I asked, my eyes wide with shock. “Will I
still be his slave? Do I have to be with him then?”
“That’s up to you,” Boris answered as he looked away. “Not a
slave, Golden. Boone and I agreed that we didn’t want you to be our 
slave,  but  our  lover.  Then  he  told  me  he  was  in  love  with  you  and 
wants  to  mate  you.  So  the  choice  is  now  yours  as  to  who  and  what 
you  want.  There  is  one  thing  we  need  to  handle  right  away  though 
because it will hurt worse the longer we wait.” 
I knew what he meant and nodded. They helped me to my feet,
giving  me  a  moment  to  let  this  news  sink  in.  I  stared  into  Boone’s 
eyes,  the  eyes  I  had  known  when  he  was  cursed,  and  saw  the  man  I 
loved.  I’d  been  trying  to  fight  it  because  I  hated  the  idea  of  being  a 
slave and the threat of being sold. 
But I did love him. I just didn’t know how I felt about Boris or if I
was  going to  live in  that house if  I wouldn’t  want  him in  my bed as 
well. 
Thankfully the pain from snapping my arm back into the shoulder
socket  was  so  immense  that  I  screamed  and  passed  out.  I  say 
thankfully because  I didn’t have to  give them an answer just then. It 
was a relativity thing.

Chapter 7
 
When I woke up I was back in my bedroom at their house, Boone 
lying beside me. I went to turn toward him and immediately stopped 
from the pain and his hand on my chest stopping me. 
“You’ll feel better in a few days but for now you need to just
rest,” he said gently. I nodded and he scooted closer to me, his chest 
pushing  against  the  good  arm.  “When  I  realized  you  ran  my  heart 
shattered into a million pieces, Golden. I thought  you treasured what 
we had?” 
“I do, but you heard what Boris threatened and you were so angry
and  hurt  I  thought  you  were  turning  on  me,”  I  whispered.  He  kissed 
my shoulder and ran his fingers through my hair. “We made love and 
it  was  amazing,  but  we  didn’t  even  get  a  few  minutes  to  enjoy  it 
before the next drama erupted and I was in trouble again. I can’t live 
like that.” 
“Boris has agreed to simply be your brother-in-law if that’s what
you want and if you want to mate me.”
“He could just give me up like that?” I heard myself asking out
loud, wincing at how it must have sounded to Boone.
“No, it’s because he cares so much for you that he just wants you
to be happy,” he said gently. Then he sighed and ran his fingers under 
the bandages  that were  holding my shoulder and arm in  place.  “You 
care for him, don’t you?” 
“Yes,” I whispered as tears burned in my eyes. “There is good in
him  but  something  has  hurt  him  so  bad  that  he’s  angry  at  the  world 
and I don’t think I can live with someone like that.” 
“Do you love him?”
 
56
Joyee Flynn
“I don’t know.” I turned my head enough to look into his eyes.
“Are you mad?”
“No, not at all,” he chuckled and brushed his lips over mine.
“When I realized I wanted  you to be my mate I  worried  I’d have to 
share my mate with my two brothers. Bash ends up being straight and 
marrying that pretty girl from the village. There’s enough love in you 
to go around, Golden. I know I would be just as loved if you wanted 
to be with Boris as well.” 
“Yeah, I just don’t know what I want.” 
“Do you want me?” 
“Yes, of course but—” 
“Then nothing else matters and we’ll figure out the rest as we go 
along,”  Boone  said  gently  as  he  sat  up.  I  wasn’t  sure  what  he  was 
doing but he lifted me into his arms and carried me out of the room. 
“You need to eat.” 
“Oh, right, that,” I mumbled as I buried my face into his neck. I
was  embarrassed that  I  had run now that  I knew he loved me.  I was 
also  not  loving the fact  that  I was  somewhat  useless  with  my injury. 
My arm was wrapped against my body and it hurt a bit even to use my 
hand. It was all connected after all.  
Boone sat me down on the kitchen table and proceeded to throw
together something quick for me. I still wasn’t really hungry. I heard a 
grunt and glanced out the window. Boris was chopping wood and had 
quite a pile already. 
“Wow, it must get really cold here in the winter if he’s starting on
the  wood  in  May  and  has  that  much  already,”  I  said  to  Boone  as  I 
politely nibbled on the bread on my plate. 
“No, not really,” he chuckled as he set a mug of ale on the table
next  to  me.  I  wasn’t  a  big  drinker  but  I  think  we  both  knew  some 
booze  would  help  with  the  pain.  “He  does  that  when  he’s  upset.  It’s 
his  way  of  getting  out  his  anger.  Sometimes  if  there’s  enough  we’d 
ask one of Bash’s friends to sell it in town.” 
 
Golden

“Oh, I could see him being angry that the curse isn’t broken for
him.” I didn’t want to focus on that right now because Boone was so 
happy that he was back to normal. But it had to be hard for Boris. 
“That’s not why he’s so upset, my love.” My head snapped in his
direction at the endearment.  I wasn’t used to it or his feelings  yet so 
they kept catching me off guard. 
“Bash is getting married and leaving?” I wouldn’t think Boris
would be like that but it would be hard losing the baby of the family 
when Boris couldn’t leave the woods to go visit. 
“No, Boris is a good brother and wants what’s best for us and
makes  us  happy,”  Boone  confirmed.  I  smiled  and  nodded.  Good, 
that’s  the  way  family  should  be.  “You  ran,  Golden.”  He  held  up  a 
hand  when  I  went  to  apologize.  “I  know  I  didn’t  help  but  it  really 
wasn’t me you were running from. You ran from him when he opened 
himself up to you. He thinks he’s lost you.” 
“I’m not sure he really ever had me but for a few moments when I
wasn’t  scared  of  him,”  I  admitted.  “I  can’t  believe  he’s  upset  over 
me.” 
Boone stared at me for several moments while I ate, making me
uncomfortable enough to squirm under his gaze. “You really don’t see 
yourself for who you are, do you, Golden?” 
“What do you mean?” 
“What  did  your  father  do  to  you  to  make  you  this  blind  to  how 
wonderful  you are?” He didn’t  wait for me to  answer, reaching over 
and  cupping  my  cheek  as  he  continued.  “You’re  gorgeous  in  a  way 
I’ve never seen another man be. You’re sweet and tender. What man 
uses  his  own  money  to  buy  food  and  supplies  for  men  who  bought 
him  as  a  slave  and  tries  as  hard  as  you  do  to  make  things  better? 
You’re amazing and Boris is broken over the idea that you will never 
be his again.” 
“So it always boils down to sex with him because that’s the only
way he ever had me,” I bit out.
 
58
Joyee Flynn
“No, it’s not about the sex, Golden. He held you, tended to you
after being intimate. He cares for you even if he didn’t show it like I 
did.” 
I sighed and mulled over what he said as I kept eating. Men. I
would never figure them out.
* * * *
 
“Your shoulder looks healed but I’d still be careful with it for the 
next  week  or  so,”  Boone  told  me  a  few  days  later.  We’d  been 
behaving  sexually  since  I  was  injured  and  it  was  killing  me  that  he 
hadn’t claimed me yet when it was what we both wanted. 
“Then claim me,” I blurted out, my cheeks heating up with how
forward that sounded.
“My pleasure,” he growled playfully as he yanked off his shirt.
Moments later we were naked in my bed as he reached for the oil I’d 
purchased. He slicked up his fingers and pushed one into my ass as I 
spread my body out for him. “Will you be mine forever, Golden?” 
“Yes, yes, I want you always.” I gasped in bliss as he rubbed over
my pleasure gland.
“Thank god because I’d die without you,” he whispered before
kissing  me.  Boone  and  I  had  become  so  much  closer  while  I  was 
injured.  Closer  than  I  thought  two  people  could  ever  become.  We 
discussed  books  and  our  childhood  and  family  and  everything  under 
the sun. We were a perfect match in every way. 
Boris on the other hand I had barely seen. He worked constantly
and avoided me as if I had the plague. Things were never going to get 
better  if  we  didn’t  at  least  talk  soon  because  we  couldn’t  go  on  like 
this. 
“Beautiful,” Boone cooed as he pushed in another finger. He
watched the way his digits parted my hole for him, enjoying the view 
of  my  body  yielding  to  him  and  us  being  joined.  I’d  also  learned  he 
was  very  visual.  We  might  not  have  had  sex,  but  we  still  were

intimate. Boone liked to watch my pleasure as he gave me more oral 
sex than I thought possible in a few days. 
And he liked to touch. There was rarely a time when he didn’t
have his hands on me even if it was as simple as having his hand on 
my thigh while we ate. He was affectionate and perfect. 
Yet, I still thought of Boris at times. I loved Boone, I truly did
with  all  my  heart.  Maybe  I  was  just  selfish  for  wanting  them  both. 
Even  if  Boris  and  I  never  were  together  again,  it  pained  me  that  he 
was  hurting  because  of  me.  Now  that  I  was  better  and  after  Boone 
claimed me I was going to confront him and fix that. 
“You still with me?” Boone asked hesitantly as he sawed his
fingers back and forth.
“Yes, just amazed at how wonderful you are and that I’m so lucky
to have found  you,”  I answered, not  wanting to admit everything  I’d 
been thinking.  It  was  the truth  but  now was  not  the time to  bring up 
his brother. 
“And here I was thinking the same thing about you,” he chuckled.
We shared a deep kiss as he kept stretching me. When I was ready he 
pulled his fingers free and gently entered me. “I’ll be gentle and bite 
your  other  shoulder  so  you  don’t  injure  yourself  during  this  or  I’ll 
never forgive myself.” 
“I can lie still,” I teased. Boone had made several comments that
as  soon  as  he  touched  me  that  my  response  was  needy  and  I  was 
incapable of staying still. It was true. I swear my hips had a mind of 
their own at times. 
He’d also explained to me that bear shifters bit their mates when
claiming them and the mark became permanent. He also said that he’d 
been told it became an erogenous zone but couldn’t know that for sure 
because  he’d  been  very  young  at  the  time.  Either  way,  it  would  be 
worth it to be Boone’s mate. 
“I love you, Golden,” he whispered in my ear as he slowly moved
his hips. “You are everything I’ve ever wanted in a mate.”

“I love you too. You are perfect to me, Boone.” I used my good
arm to hold him closer as I let my other one stay still. When he started 
to thrust slightly harder, I wrapped my leg over his hip so he could go 
deeper. 
“Oh god you feel good. I never remember just how wonderful
until I’m back inside of you.”
“Maybe you should never leave my body then,” I purred as his
hand  ran  down  my  body.  He  moved  it  under  my  ass  and  squeezed 
tight,  helping  me  move  to  him  on  each  thrust.  “Make  me  come  all 
over you, Boone. I’ve missed this and needed it.” 
“Me too, my love.” He held me close as he kissed along my
shoulder  where  it  met  my  neck.  “Are  you  ready?  Will  you  be  mine 
forever?” 
“Yes and yes,” I panted as he started moving faster. I was right
there  and  just  needed  a  push  over…  Which  it  seemed  his  teeth  gave 
me. He sunk them into my flesh and stars flashed behind my eyes as I 
cried out in bliss. I came so hard I swear my body was convulsing. I 
screamed Boone’s name and held his head to me as I filled the space 
between us with my release. 
“Mine!” He snarled as he pumped faster and harder. He grunted
around my skin as he filled me with his seed. I moaned at the feeling, 
loving  that  I  could  bring  him  such  pleasure.  Boone  kept  moving  his 
hips, letting my body drain his cock of every drop. 
“Sweet heavens!” I gasped, trying to get enough air into my lungs.
“That was unbelievable.”
“It was,” he purred as he held me and rolled us so I was lying
across  his  large  frame.  “We’re  bonded  forever  now,  Golden.  We’ve 
mated and are married in the ways of my people.” 
“Good,” I giggled, giddy at the idea. “I’m your husband then and I
demand a repeat performance at least once a day.”
“Just once?” I lifted my head enough to see his smiling face. We
both  burst  out  laughing  as  we  basked  in  the  glory  of  what  we’d  just 
shared.

A little while later we got up and Boone gave me a luxurious bath,
stating I was precious to him and would be treated as such. I felt like 
the  most  important  thing  in  the  world  to  him  and  never  wanted  it  to 
end. I wouldn’t let it but that didn’t mean there weren’t other things I 
needed to handle.  
Boris.

Chapter 8
 
Boris  had  done  everything  in  his  power  to  avoid  me  the  next 
week. He didn’t take meals with us, working all hours, and riding his 
horse all over the forest. Hell, I fell asleep a few times trying to wait 
up  for  him  in  the  kitchen,  much  to  Boone’s  aggravation.  He 
understood  but  he  didn’t  like  the  way  the  situation  was  stressing  me 
out. 
I was pretty sure he wasn’t happy that Boris was so upset either,
but  he  couldn’t  fix  things  between  Boris  and  I.  It  had  to  be  hard  on 
him especially because my heart was breaking for the man I shouldn’t 
care for but did.  
Finally I decided to wait for him in the barn. He couldn’t just walk
by me there or ignore me if I fell asleep. I drank a bunch of coffee and 
waited until well after the moon had fully risen. It paid off because I 
was wide awake when he came back that night. 
“Let’s get you something to eat,” Boris said gently to his horse as
he dismounted. “You need a break. I’m sorry I’ve been riding you so 
hard lately.” 
“Are you sorry you’ve been ditching me too?” I asked as I stepped
out  from  the  shadows.  I  wore  nothing  but  a  dressing  gown  and  my 
sandals… And it was see-through. 
“Go to bed, Golden,” he bit out, intentionally not looking at me. I
let him tend to his horse as I made my way to the door. He’d have to 
run me over to get out now and the moon was behind me so I knew he 
would see I had nothing underneath the dressing gown. When he was 
done  he  turned  and  gasped,  thinking  I  had  left.  “Why  are  you  doing 
this?” 
 
Golden

“You’ve been avoiding me at all costs and I figured you couldn’t
ignore me if I was dressed like this.”
“You are my brother’s mate,” he growled as he took a few steps
towards me, his hands shaking. “You should not be behaving like this 
with another man!” 
“You’re not just any other man, Boris, and we both know that,” I
whispered as I undid the tie at my neck and let the gown fall open. “I 
know Boone told you that he has no problem if you have me as well. 
So what is your problem?” 
“I thought I scared you?” he asked quietly as he stepped closer.
His  eyes  were  full  of  lust,  even  I  could  see  it  in  the  moonlight.  I 
wanted to slap him when he reached out and then dropped his hand. 
“You do at times but I saw something in you that made me want
more,”  I countered as  I stepped closer. His whole body shivered as  I 
took his hand and brought it to my lips. “If you tell me you don’t want 
me,  I’ll  leave  and  never  bother  you  again.  But  you  can’t  keep 
avoiding me, Boris.” 
“I don’t want you upset anymore and all I do is give you grief.” 
“That’s not all you’ve done for me,” I purred as I moved his other 
hand  over  my  hip  and  to  my  ass.  I  had  already  stretched  myself  out 
and used copious amounts  of oil so  I’d be ready  for him.  “Wouldn’t 
you be  willing just to  control  your temper a little bit to  be with  me? 
I’m not asking you to change, Boris. But the threats and harsh words 
need to stop.” 
He moaned as he brought both hands to my ass and squeezed
before his fingers ran over my crack. “Why is there oil there?”
“I think you know why.” I jumped up, knowing he would catch
me,  and he didn’t  fail me, wrapping me around  his  large frame.  “Be 
honest  with  me  for  once,  Boris.  What  do  you  want?  Did  you  really 
ever want me as your slave?” 
“No. I just want you, Golden. I feel like all I’ve ever wanted was
you,” he whispered in my ear as he licked along my neck. “The
 
64

moment  I  saw  you  I  knew  my  life  would  never  be  the  same  and  I’d 
never want another.” 
“Then why have you been avoiding me? Why fight so hard to put
distance between us?”
“Because I’m a very big idiot.” I think his brain was losing blood
too  fast  to  talk  much  anymore  because  I  felt  where  it  was  going 
against  my  ass.  “I  just  can’t  be  what  you  want,  Golden.  You  can’t 
tempt me like this.” 
“Like I want? To not be so angry and say horrid things to me?
That’s too much to ask?” I couldn’t understand that. I leaned back in 
his arms to look into his eyes. They filled with tears and  I realized I 
was missing something big here. 
“I deserve this curse, baby,” he admitted as his shoulders slumped.
“I can’t tell you how I feel and mate you like you are with Boone. I 
can’t have the curse lifted.” 
“That’s bullshit!” I exclaimed, pissed beyond words that he would
willingly  punish  himself  like  this.  “Put  me  down!”  He  did  and  I 
grabbed his hand. I had come up with a plan B option that I hoped I 
wouldn’t need. But now I did for other reasons. “If you didn’t love me 
that’s one thing, Boris, but this is ridiculous.” 
“Golden, if you only knew—” 
“I  know  what  happened,  Boris,”  I  said,  cutting  him  off.  He 
followed me, lost in his own world which helped me because he was 
going to fight this next part and I wasn’t strong enough to force him. 
“Sit  down.”  I  pointed  to  a  bale  of  hay  I  had  placed  there.  “We’re 
going to talk.” 
“Okay.” He nodded sadly as if he’d been sentenced to the gallows.
He plopped down on it  and  I moved behind him like  I  was  going to 
rub his shoulders. 
“Hands behind your back,” I whispered as I kissed by his ear. He
did as I wanted with a moan. Then as quickly as I could I shackled his 
hands to the chains in the wall. I didn’t think they had been there for 
 
Golden
65
prisoners,  maybe if they had to  do something to  the horses that  they 
wouldn’t like, but it was helpful for me right then. 
“What are you doing?” His eyes went wide as he pulled against
them. “You know I can break out of these, right?”
“Probably but I’m asking that you don’t,” I said gently as I moved
around him. He gazed over my body, ending on my face and staring 
into  my  eyes  with  questions.  “I’m  asking  you  do  this  one  thing  for 
me, Boris. Don’t break those chains and be honest with me. Well, two 
things then.” 
“For you I will do it,” he conceded after a few moments. I nodded
and  lost  my  dressing  gown.  Then  I  went  to  work  on  his  pants  and 
undid his shirt so it fell down his arms. “You’re chaining me down for 
sex?” 
“No, it’s not about the sex,” I explained as I slid my leg over his
lap,  making  sure  his  cock  rubbed  against  my  slicked-up  hole. 
“Because  you  can’t  run  from  the  intimacy  and  my  questions. 
Understand one thing, Boris. If we can’t resolve these issues it will be 
the last time you have me.” 
“You’re going to withhold sex from me to get what you want?”
He growled, clearly not liking the idea.
I froze and simply stared at him a moment. “If that’s what you
truly think of me then I will just let you go right now and we should 
be done.” His face fell as he realized how bad what he said sounded. 
“No, I know you would never manipulate me like that. It’s just
how the situation seems. I’m sorry.”
“Good because I might be manipulating you a bit but it’s not for
me,”  I  whispered  as  I  lowered  myself  onto  his  cock.  Then  I  let  go, 
letting my weight slowly take more of him into me. I reached up and 
took his face in my hands. “I would be happy the rest of my life being 
with you in this form, Boris. I’m attracted and think you’re handsome 
just the way you are. This isn’t about me.” 
“What’s it about then?” he asked, biting his lip to keep in a moan
and probably not thrust into me so he was fully seated in my hole.

“You forgiving yourself.” His eyes went wide but I kissed him
before  he  could  answer.  My  arms  snaked  around  his  neck  as  our 
chests rubbed and my ass hit his thighs. “How old were you when you 
all became orphans?” 
“Twenty-one, but—” 
“No  buts,”  I  growled  and  started  moving  my  hips.  “You  were 
barely a man, Boris. You were the oldest so it was up to you to find a 
new  home.  I  wouldn’t  have  known  this  forest  was  inhabited.  There 
are no signs, no warnings. How were you to know?” 
“The choices I made led us here and to end up cursed,” he yelled
as he thrust up. “It’s my fault!”
“No!” I shouted and smacked his shoulder hard. “It was the
witch’s fault. A normal person would have said, hey, this is my land, 
please leave. You would have apologized for the mistake and left, no 
harm,  no  foul.  The  curse  was  never  your  fault  but  a  crazy  lady’s 
overreacting.  People  like  that  just  look  for  excuses  to  make  others 
miserable.  You’ve  suffered  seven  years  with  this,  Boris.  Boone  and 
Bash harbor no ill will against you for what happened. Let it go.” 
“I can’t,” he admitted as his eyes filled with tears. 
“Yes you can. I forgive you, they forgive you, everyone forgives 
you for what’s transpired but you.” I took a deep breath, ready to drop 
the  bomb  on  the  next  part.  “Breaking  the  curse  is  the  first  step  in 
that.” I made sure to move my hips faster and he made happy noises 
as I stared into his eyes. “I don’t want you to do it for me, but if you 
really  feel  for  me  the  way  you  say  and  won’t  just  tell  me  to  punish 
yourself.  
“That’s unacceptable and this will be the last time we are together.
I won’t be with someone, love someone, who’s so bent on punishing 
himself that it’s more important than his feelings for me.” 
“I didn’t mean it like that,” he whimpered as he leaned his
forehead to mine. “Please, let me go.”
“No, I won’t give up on you,” I snarled and smacked him again.

“I don’t want you to.” He gave me a half smile. “Let go of my
wrists  so  I  can touch  you. Please, Golden?  I won’t  run but  I need to 
feel you, baby, more than ever.” 
“Oh, I can do that,” I chuckled. I slid off his lap with a moan as
his cock popped free of me. Then I scrambled behind him and undid 
the shackles. I yelped as I was almost immediately lifted up in the air. 
Boris  pushed  me  up  against  the  wall,  one  of  the  horse  blankets 
hanging there so I didn’t get hurt. 
“If I say it will you be mine?” he asked as he pushed back into me
with such force my ass thumped against the wall. “Will you share my 
bed as you do Boone’s and swear yourself to me forever?” 
“I can’t give you the answers to the test before you’ve agreed to
take it,”  I said  gently as he started pounding into me.  “But  I’m here, 
fighting  for  you,  Boris.  Fighting  for  there  to  be  an  us  and  a  future. 
Doesn’t that tell you everything you need to know?” 
He gave me a sharp nod and fucked me with everything he had. I
held on for dear life, hoping I’d gotten through to him. When I felt as 
if I was going to pass out from pleasure, I finally peaked.  
“Boris!” I screamed as I buried my face into his neck. He growled
and came right after me, filling me with the proof of his desire for me. 
But  was  desire enough? Was  wanting my body  enough to  make him 
see that there was more to the world than he was allowing himself to 
have? 
“I love you, Golden,” he whispered against my ear. “From the
moment I saw you, you were no slave to me. You were the other half 
of my heart that I wanted forever. I grieve that I ever said otherwise or 
hurt you. You deserve so much better than me and I thank the heavens 
you don’t see that and that you give me any moment of your time.” 
“You talk pretty for someone who just fucked me stupid,” I
giggled, feeling loopy from the orgasm. “I love you too, Boris.”
“Good.” He gasped and sat down on the hay with a thump hard
enough  that  he  almost  dropped  me.  At  the  last  second  he  held  on  as 
his body started to shake violently. I held on to his shoulders, smiling

when the fur came off in my fingers. He started to shrink a bit, even 
inside of me. When he was done, he was still huge and filled me up. 
Nice. 
“There’s the man I love, no longer cursed,” I cooed as I ran my
hands over his handsome face. He could have been twins with Boone 
except he was a little bit more rugged. Either way they tied for most 
attractive man on the planet to me. 
“Thank you, baby,” he whispered against my lips before kissing
me.
“Thank you for wanting me more than wanting to hang on to your
guilt  and  your  past.”  Good  thing  this  plan  had  worked  because  if  it 
had gone the other way I would royally have pushed his buttons in a 
way we wouldn’t have been able to recover from. 
Score one for the blond!

Chapter 9
 
A few days later I got up early, humming brightly to myself, and 
went outside to feed the chicks. They were getting so big already and 
there had been so much going on that I barely got to play with them. 
Things  had  been  going  so  well  with  my  men  and  they  were  thrilled 
that today was Bash’s wedding that I couldn’t help but be happy. 
“Yes, yes I have food for all of you,” I chuckled as they peeped
and  jumped  on  me  the  moment  I  opened  the  door  for  the  chicken 
coop.  It  warmed  my  heart  every  time  I  even  saw  the  coop  because 
Boris had built it for me and then Boone had painted it. Maybe it was 
silly for a  grown man to  want  chickens  as  pets  but  they let  me do it 
anyway and supported me. 
I plopped on my butt and let them eat out of my hand, petting
them  as  they  ate.  I  talked  to  them  some,  telling  them  about  all  the 
plans  for  Bash’s  wedding  and  how  I  was  thrilled  everyone  could  go 
now that the curse was broken for all of them. Bash hadn’t wanted to 
get  married  until  both  his  brothers  could  come.  He  was  a  good  guy 
like that. 
“We have a problem, mate,” Boris said from behind me. I turned
and  saw  both  my  men  standing  there,  frowning  with  their  arms 
crossed over their chests. “We need to talk.” 
Ouch. Words a man never wants to hear. 
“Okay, about what?” 
“We don’t like your bed hopping,” Boone answered as they knelt 
on either side of me. I stared at one and then the other. I wasn’t sure 
how  to  handle  this  one.  I  didn’t  like  switching  off  nights  with  them 
 
70

either  but  what  was  the  other  option?  Give  one  of  them  up?  No 
fucking way. 
“And how would you like to rectify that?” I hedged, knowing in
my heart what I’d like but it wasn’t fair to ask them for it.
“We want to knock down the wall to Bash’s old room and make
one big room, getting a new bed that can fit all of us,” Boris said with 
a firm nod. 
“Yes!” I exclaimed as I threw myself into his arms, careful of the
chicks. “Yes, yes, yes!”
“That was easier than I thought it would be,” he mumbled and
stared over my shoulder at Boone.
“That’s what I’ve wanted but you guys are brothers and it’s not
fair  for  me  to  ask  you  sleep  in  the  same  bed,”  I  rambled,  turning  to 
hug Boone as well. “I hate leaving one of you to go to the other. But I 
was  worried  you  guys  would  say  I’d  have  to  pick  one  of  you  or 
something if I brought it up.” 
“Not happening,” Boris growled as Boone yanked off my shirt.
Okay,  so  I  guess  they  were  going  to  get  their  morning  play  now… 
Outside.  “You  belong  to  both  of  us  and  we  are  just  as  much  yours. 
You  will  sleep  in  the  middle  of  us  and  it’s  not  like  we  haven’t  seen 
the other naked. We might accidently touch but we’re both after you.” 
“Yes, all yours,” I agreed as I someone pulled off my drawers so I
was on all fours naked. “Do with me as you will.”
“Gladly,” Boone purred as he buried his face in my ass. He licked
my hole and I started mewling like a cat in heat. “That’s it, my love. 
Make those noises we want to hear.” 
“Gimmie cock,” I demanded of Boris and opened my mouth wide.
I’d been dying for the two of them to take me at once and this was my 
greatest  fantasy  coming  to  life.  His  lust-glazed  eyes  met  mine  as  he 
quickly undid his pants. I whimpered and did my best to keep my hips 
still  as  Boone  nibbled  my  hole  and  pushed  two  slicked-up  fingers 
inside.

How had I missed that they came out with oil? Must have been in
his  pocket.  I  was  so  glad  I  purchased  that  when  I  was  in  town  and 
wanted to go back for more so we never, ever ran out. 
“I love this mint oil, Golden. We need to make sure we always
have  some,”  Boone  said  in  between  licks  as  he  kept  moving  his 
fingers. 
“I was just thinking the same thing.” That was all I was able to get
out before Boris pushed his cock past my lips.  I  moaned and sucked 
as  much of him as  I could  into my throat.  Even  not  cursed he was  a 
large man with a very big dick so I had trouble most times swallowing 
all of him.  
But I was getting better and had no problem practicing until I got
it right.
“Breathe through your nose and relax, baby,” Boris gently
instructed.  I  glanced  up  at  him  and  gave  a  slight  nod.  He  was 
wonderful at gentle reminders. I got overwhelmed by the size of him 
at  times  and  tried  too  hard  instead  of  just  relaxing  most  of  the  time. 
“You look so damn pretty sucking me off.” 
Oh, and they’d realized I liked dirty talk. 
“You  should  taste  his  ass,”  Boone  purred  and  gave  me  another 
lick. “And he loves to get finger fucked while you lick him.”
“I ate his ass through two orgasms last night,” Boris said proudly.
Okay, so they were still brothers and a little competitive at times. Fine 
by  me  because  it  never  crossed  into  hostility  and  I  won  no  matter 
what. I had a feeling I knew what was going to come next. 
“Really?” Boone asked as he pushed in another finger. “Hmm,
then  maybe  I’ll  have  to  try  and  get  him  three  times  after  Bash’s 
wedding. Did you finger him too or just straight tongue?” 
See? I won no matter who was trying to top the other. 
“Fingers. We  got  up to  four while  I  rimmed him. He likes to  be 
pushed  to  the  edge  and  filled  as  much  as  possible.”  I  cleared  my 
throat  to  remind  them  that  he  was  right  there  and  wanted  attention.

“Sorry, baby. We simply like pleasing you so much that we compare 
notes.” 
I rolled my eyes at that one and he chuckled. I knew exactly what
they’d been doing.
“Can I at least brag that you climaxed just from being spanked
yesterday?”  Boone  asked  as  he  pulled  out  his  fingers.  I  shuddered, 
knowing what was coming next, and pushed my ass out for him as  I 
tightened my lips around Boris’s  cock.  “He likes to be spanked.” To 
prove his point he slapped my ass several times in a row. 
“Very interesting,” Boris purred as he pulled out of my mouth. 
“I wasn’t  finished with  that,”  I  bitched  as he pushed me up so  I 
was just on my knees.
“But I was going to finish if you kept that up and I want inside of
you  now.”  I  could  live  with  that.  He  lifted  me  up  so  I  was  wrapped 
around  him  and  shoved  his  cock  into  me.  “Spank  him  while  I  fuck 
him and then we can switch.” 
“Oh heavens, you guys are trying to kill me,” I whimpered as I
moved my hips. They chuckled and I felt the crack of Boone’s hand 
on  my  ass.  My  dick  twitched  against  Boris’s  stomach  and  started 
leaking.  “Harder.  I  need  it  harder,  Boone.  I’ve  been  a  very  bad  boy, 
leaving your bed before you woke.” 
“That is true,” he agreed and spanked me again. “But now we’re
all going to share a bed so one of us will catch you if you try to sneak 
out again.” 
“And punish me?” I moaned, rubbing myself against Boris as he
moved my hips faster and faster.
“It’s not punishment if you enjoy it,” Boris chastised me, nipping
my shoulder.
“Fine, then humiliate me as you do it,” I suggested. It was another
fantasy  of  mine  that  they  tie  me  up,  spank  me,  call  me  dirty  names, 
and fuck me until I passed out. It seems them mating me released the 
animal  inside  of  me.  “I  never  liked  slave  but  you  can  call  me  your 
whore if you want?”

They both moaned and I knew that it was going to be added to the
list  of bedroom  games. Suddenly, Boris  pulled out  of me and Boone 
thrust right back in. I cried out as the angle changed and the fact that 
they caught me off guard. 
“What does our mate want most right now?” Boris asked me with
a heated gaze.
“Kiss me and fondle my sac,” I screamed. They knew what I
liked, how I liked it, and when I wanted it but yet they loved hearing 
me beg for it. He nodded and lowered his lips to mine. Seconds later I 
felt his hand between my legs as Boone pounded into my ass. 
“Tighten, my love, I’m coming,” Boone grunted. He liked a bite
of pain when I squeezed him too hard when he was about to finish. I 
did  as  he  wanted  and  he  cried  out  as  he  filled  me  with  his  seed.  I 
moaned and rubbed against Boris, needing just a bit more to climax. 
Except they both backed off. Boone pulled out of me and wiped
me  clean  as  I  held  on  to  Boris  like  a  limp  monkey.  He  stopped 
touching me and kissing at me. 
“I didn’t finish,” I mumbled as they laid me on the ground. “No
fair.”
“We’re not done with you,” Boris growled as he lifted my legs up
so my ass and hips were off the ground. Then he thrust into me hard 
enough to move me across the lawn. Then Boone straddled my head 
and I sucked his cock into my mouth. 
“Yeah, baby, just like that,” he moaned. I couldn’t see anything
but that part of him and gasped when two hands found my cock, one 
of each of theirs. “Come for us.” 
I licked and sucked on him as if he was my favorite treat right as I
wavered on the edge of bliss. Boris pushed a finger inside of me along 
with his cock and I came screaming for all to hear. They didn’t let up 
their  attentions,  driving  my  peak  higher  and  higher  as  they  drew  it 
out. When one of the final waves of it hit me, Boris unloaded into my 
ass.

Boone moved off of me when he was spent, lying down next to
me on the ground as Boris held himself up, gasping for air.
“Did you know you talk in your sleep?” Boone asked me with an
impish grin.
“No,” I gasped, needing more air and fast. 
“Well, you do,” he chuckled, tracing his fingers over my nipple. 
“The  past  few  nights  you’ve  been  having  interesting  dreams,  my 
mate. I talked to Boris yesterday and we realized they were about both 
of us taking you at once.” 
“If I remember them correctly, yes,” I agreed, my cheeks heating
up.
“Why didn’t you tell us, Golden?” Boris asked gently as he
lowered  my  legs.  “Don’t  you  know  by  now  we  would  give  you 
anything you wanted?” 
“I have everything I’ve ever wanted,” I said quietly as I glanced
between  them.  “Every  fairy  tale  ends  with  a  happy  ending  of  one 
couple. I got both of you so in my mind real life can be better than the 
stories. I’m happy.” 
“Yes, but we want to know your fantasies too, my love,” Boone
replied and gave me a kiss. “As long as it doesn’t hurt you and it’s not 
Boris and I together, there’s no reason we can’t give you anything you 
want.” 
“Yeah, you guys don’t touch like that,” I said firmly, crossing my
arms over my chest. “I’m too jealous for that and the idea is gross.”
“Duly noted,” Boris chuckled and kissed me. “So what else is on
the fantasy list?”
“You’re going to need a pen and paper for this,” I giggled as I
waggled  my  eyebrows  at  them.  They  stared  at  each  other  a  moment 
before bursting out laughing. 
“We’ll make sure to take notes,” Boone agreed with a bright
smile. Then before I could tell them any of my fantasies, they started 
touching  me  all  over.  That  was  about  the  last  coherent  thought  until 
they each took me one more time.

I was happy, they had both mated and claimed me. I was theirs
and  they  were  mine…  And  part  of  me  wanted  to  go  visit  my  father 
and thank him for selling me. 
Nahh. Better just to live with my men and be happy… Forever.
