STORY EXCERPT

Isabella

Damien rolls onto his side and gives me a swoon-worthy smile. Butterflies take flight inside my belly at the beautiful sight.

“You’re so adorable,” Damien tells me with a boop to my nose.

“Adorable? Ick. Under no circumstance does a grown woman ever want to be called adorable by her boyfriend.” I sit up and pull my books from my brown canvas tote bag.

“I get that…except you’re not just adorable, you’re adorably sexy, baby girl.” Damien sits up beside me and winks.

“Nice save, buddy.” I laugh before opening my psychology textbook.

Without warning, I’m hauled onto Damien's lap and his lips are trailing down my neck. I relax against his hard body and absorb the feel of him. His feathery kisses turn to light nips and my body begins to burn for him.

“I want to do nasty things to this sexy body of yours, baby,” Damien tells me in a husky tone.

Damien’s fingertips trail down the hot skin of my cleavage.

“Earth to Bella…yo…Damien.” I scurry off Damien’s lap when our friend Miles gently taps my foot with his sneaker. “Did you two forget you were in public? Tsk, Tsk.” Miles shakes his head with a chuckle.

My cheeks heat to a fiery red hot as I keep my head down, trying to divert attention by gathering my belongings.

“I’m going to head back to my dorm room to study. I have a psychology test in the morning, and you are just a distraction,” I say as Damien stands and helps guide me to my feet. “I’ll call you later,” I stand on my tippy toes and kiss Damien’s clean-shaven cheek.

“Let me walk you to your room, baby girl,” Damien whispers between us.

“No…don’t be silly, your apartment is in the opposite direction. I’ll be fine.” I swat at Damien’s chest.

“Fine, but call me as soon as you get to your dorm…and lock yourself in,” Damien says for my ears only.

“I’ll walk with you, I’m going that way,” Miles offers.

“Sounds good,” I tell him as I blow Damien another kiss.

Damien catches my kiss in the air and holds it to his heart before turning and heading in the opposite direction. I’m floating on air as Miles and I walk along the gravel path to the dorms.

“You would consider me a good friend, wouldn’t you?” Miles asks when he comes to a stop on the path, and I do the same.

“Yes, one of my very best friends. Why do you ask?”

Miles blows a long breath through his cheeks, and I narrow my eyes.

“What is it, Miles?”

“Bell…shit…” Miles shifts on his feet.

“Spit it out.” I poke Miles on the shoulder.

“Fine…just know this is coming from a place of genuine love and concern. He’s going to break your heart, Bell. Damien is not…he’s not boyfriend material.”

“I’ve been dating Damien since the beginning of last semester and you’re telling me this now?” I raise an eyebrow. “Miles, he’s been good to me, great even. He’s also your best friend. Why are you saying these things? I don’t understand your concern, but I appreciate it. Thanks for looking out for me, but it’s not necessary.”

“I didn’t realize until now how serious the two of you have gotten. I honestly thought you’d have ditched him by now.” Miles shrugs.

“Miles…this is…”

“Listen, you know Damien and I grew up together, we’ve been best friends for as long as my memory goes back. So…please trust me when I say I know him as well as anyone can, and the guy has never dated anyone without an ulterior motive. I’m not sure he’s capable of loving anyone except himself. I don’t want to see you get hurt, Bell.”

I fold my arms over my chest and glare at my supposed friend. “I can’t believe you’re saying these things. Damien loves me, Miles, and he loves you. So, he is capable of loving someone other than himself and he doesn’t have an ulterior motive for being with me.”

“I’m sorry, but he does have an ulterior motive, Isabella. I overheard Damien telling our friend Chase that he’s basically on your mother’s payroll because the two of you are dating. He said he just has to stick it out with you until your mom sees how valuable he can be to her once he’s on her team. He’s using you to jump-start his career, then he’s going to break up with you.”

I flop onto a wooden bench set along the path as tears fall like rain from my eyes on this clear day. My mind races through the past several months as I snag all the red flags from my memory bank that I initially missed. I drop my head in my hands and sob.

ADULT EXCERPT

Damien

“Do you want me to leave the two of you alone?” Isabella asks.

“What? No! I want you, baby. I don’t want him like that. The only thing I want from Miles is friendship.”

“Lies…” Miles walks on his knees until he’s in front of me and runs his hands over my thighs.

My cock twitches and anger begins to boil up to the surface.

“Get the fuck out, Miles.”

“No, he can stay,” she says.

 Miles and I both stare at Isabella with wide eyes.

“Baby, please don’t leave,” I plead as Miles quickly unbuckles and unzips my pants.

I hiss when he slips his hand inside and grips my cock.

“You like it when Miles touches you, admit it.” Her eyes are glued to Miles’s hand as he moves it up and down my cock inside my pants.

“Shit…,” I push Miles away. “It’s not what I want. I want you; I want us.”

“Day…Bell’s into it. She wants to watch. She wants to be a part of this. Let her.”

I look at Bell. “Is he right? Does it turn you on that Miles just had his hand on my cock?”

“Only if you still love me,” she says.

“He loves you, we both do. Now can we move on? I’m dying here.” Miles shimmies my pants down my thighs and my dick springs free.

Miles licks his lips. “That’s a beautiful fucking sight, isn’t it?” he asks Bella and she swallows hard.

Miles jumps off the bed and strips off his clothes. Isabella gasps at the sight of her friend’s cock. My cock is long and thick with prominent veins, where Miles’s dick is long, but skinnier in comparison, with a slight curve.

“I know it’s not as pretty as Damien’s cock, but I promise it will make you feel so fucking good.”

“No. Not gonna fucking happen, Miles. Don’t lay a hand on Bell.” I’m hit with a mixture of arousal and jealousy as Miles climbs over top of me and our cocks rub against each other.

“I won’t touch her until you both ask for it and I promise that will happen. For now…I’ll focus on you. Just relax and feel.” He moves back and forth, causing friction against our dicks.

Miles sits back on his heels and strokes his long dick, knowing full well that it turns me on to watch him jerk off. My cock throbs in response and I grip it, giving it a quick pull before letting it bob against my stomach.

“I want to suck your cock and swallow your cum. Will you let me this time?” he asks, and my breathing turns heavy as my heart pounds against my chest.

I fall onto my back and shift my head in Bella’s direction, scared to death of what’s going through her head, at the same time wanting so bad to fuck Miles’s hot mouth.

Damien looks to me for guidance and I nod.

“Suck my dick,” he tells Miles and Miles drops his head.

Miles opens his mouth wide and takes Damien’s hard dick deep down his throat as he slowly strokes his own cock.

I’m completely mesmerized by the sight as I squeeze my legs together. I watch in awe as Damien’s mouth falls open and he bucks his hips.

“Fuck…” he growls. “Come here, baby.” Damien pulls me to him, and I lie next to him.

I sit up on my elbow as Miles spreads Damien’s legs wide and runs his finger over his asshole, before inserting the tip inside. Damien moans and I rub my pussy against his leg.

“Put your hand inside your panties and touch yourself, baby.”

I shake my head and my cheeks catch fire.

Miles releases Damien’s cock and I watch it pulse. “We’re both about to come, Bell. I’d hate for you to be left out.” He licks the precum from the tip of Damien’s thick cock before sucking on it again.

I slide my hand inside my shorts and then my panties. My clit is so swollen, I barely recognize the feel of it. I make feather light passes across my clit as it throbs against my finger.
