STORY EXCERPT

Ben hadn’t been able to sleep much after making love with Toni last night. He was really worried over her reaction to how quickly things had gotten out of control and after he showered and dressed he told Jack he’d decided to go see and talk to her. The last thing he and Jack wanted was for her to be uncomfortable around them and start avoiding them again. He was just heading up the walkway when he heard Toni yell and broke into a run. The sight that he stumbled onto left him cold and angry. Some bastard was trying to hurt or make moves on his woman. He stepped through the door to take the trash out but he should have known his feisty, independent woman could take care of herself.

Toni grabbed the lamp from the side table as the man lunged at her again and she slammed it into the side of his head. She watched almost dispassionately as the man crumpled to the floor beside her, totally out cold.

“That will teach you, you sicko.”

“Toni! Shit, are you okay?” Ben moved around the asshole and pulled her into his arms. He hated that she was trembling and obviously upset but she pushed out of his arms and stomped into the kitchen, grabbed the phone off the hook and called the number to the new local police station. He was glad that she had put the phone on speaker and he was able hear the entire conversation.

“Sergeant Zachary Beech speaking, how may I help you?”

“Zach, its Toni from the coffee shop. I need you to come over to my house and remove my crazy neighbor because I’ve knocked him stupid with the lamp.”

“Calm down, Toni, take a deep breath. Now give me your address, sweetheart, and I’ll be there before you know it.”

Toni gave Zach her address and hung up the phone, but instead of looking at him, she kept her eyes on her crazy neighbor.

“Toni, look at me, baby.” Ben moved closer and saw the moisture in her eyes but again when he tried to take her into his arms, she sidestepped. God, she was so fucking stubborn. He could see that she needed comfort but she wouldn’t let him near her.

“What is it going to take to let me help you, Toni? Why won’t you let me hold you? You’re shaking.” Ben slowly reached out and took her hand in his. She clutched at it as if it was her only lifeline and her hand was cold. He slowly drew her closer and then all of sudden she was in his arms and her face was buried in his chest. “Shh, baby. I’ve got you. He can’t hurt you again.”

Ben’s chest was aching. He had been so damn scared that bastard was going to hurt her. He wouldn’t be able to handle the stress if she got hurt. He wanted the chance to love her and cherish her. She was so damn special to him. He’d known she was strong but was glad he’d had the chance to see just how resilient she was. Most women would have run or cowered, but not his Toni. No, she’d taken matters into her own hands, found a weapon, and defended herself without any hesitation. She finally calmed down and stopped shaking and he reluctantly released her when she pulled away. Just as she turned to look at the arsehole, the police arrived.

He’d met the men briefly after the first standoff in Toni and Tasha’s store and now that he knew the men weren’t after his and Jack’s woman he wasn’t worried about them being near her. If that reasoning made him conceited he didn’t give a shit. As far as he was concerned no one else was going to get the chance to take her away from them. Although he knew Toni hadn’t looked at anyone else she did tend to flirt a bit when he and Jack were around but not with them.

All of a sudden the penny dropped. Antonia Cameron was trying to hide her feelings for him and Jack by flirting with other guys. He only hoped that would stop now that they had made love to her.

Toni couldn’t believe the way she had fallen apart in Ben’s arms. Of course she was shaken up after Neville had come at her, but she was so used to taking care of herself and dealing with everything alone, she had surprised even herself by clinging to Ben. The only plus side was that she had been able to keep her tears at bay. His big warm body and hugging arms had been such a comfort and she hadn’t been able to stop shaking, but now she was back under control she had no intention of letting her guard down again. She nearly sighed with relief when the two police officers arrived and drew Ben’s attention away from her.

Zach Beech and Noah D’Angelo walked in her open front door, nodded toward Ben, and then looked at her unconscious neighbor.

“Are you all right, Toni?” Zach asked with concern.

“Of course I’m all right. I want you to remove that great lump of lard from my floor.”

“What happened?” Noah asked as he moved around from behind Zach.

“This moron knocked on my door. I had only just woken up so I was a bit grumpy. He pushed his way in and asked me for a kiss. I refused him of course but when he lunged at me I gave him one, a kiss from that lamp on his stupid, thick head.”

ADULT EXCERPT

“Oh, yeah. Good girl. Now take me into that sweet mouth of yours,” Jack rasped.

Toni opened wide and sucked Jack’s crown into her mouth. Jack tilted his head back and clenched his jaw, but Ben heard the low growl that escaped his brother’s mouth.

Toni sucked in as much as she could but they were both big men and Ben could see she was struggling to take Jack’s cock. She withdrew and then licked up and down the underside of his cock gliding her tongue over the large vein. She sucked and nibbled then took Jack’s penis back into her mouth and started bobbing her head in a steady rhythm in time to Jack’s gently thrusting hips.

Ben held still while he watched Toni administer to Jack’s erection. When he felt the muscles in her pussy relax, he slid back a smidgeon then pushed forward until he was in another inch. He moaned out loud as her muscles contracted and released around his hard flesh. He began to slide back and pushed in more each time he thrust forward. He moved his finger lightly around and over her clit and kept pushing until he was in halfway. He was shaking with desire and from holding back thrusting into her body with one hard surge. Sweat rolled down his temples and off his forehead as he tried to keep his passion under a tight rein.

Toni pulled her mouth from Jack’s cock with a slurping sound and yelled with frustration. “I am not made of glass, Ben. I need all of you in me, now. Please?”

“I don’t want to hurt you, baby, you’re so tight,” Ben clenched his jaw.

“Do you think I would be doing this if I thought you would hurt me? Just fuck me,” Toni demanded.

Ben unleashed his control, moved back slightly and slammed in until his balls were flush with her ass. He held still when Toni cried out.

“I’m sorry, baby, I didn’t want to hurt you.”

“You are not hurting me, Ben. It’s too much pleasure, I can’t take anymore.”

Ben sighed with relief and smiled down at her as he stared into her passion glazed eyes. “Yes you can, baby. We’ve only just started. We are going to make you feel so good.”

He held still giving her time to adjust to his size, also, so Jack could get his cock back into her mouth. When Toni was once more into a rhythm both Jack and she were comfortable with, he withdrew his cock until just the tip was inside her and then he pressed back in. He set up a slow easy rhythm until he felt her internal muscles ease and his access in to her body got easier. He increased his pace with each forward momentum until the sound of their bodies slapping together echoed throughout the room.

“Toni, let me go. I’m gonna come, sugar,” Jack moaned.

Toni moved her hand up between Jack’s legs, took his balls into the palm of her hand and gently massaged him while she sucked him in hard, not relinquishing him from her mouth.

“Toni, I’m gonna come now,” Jack tipped his head back and roared as his cock spewed its load down her throat. She licked, sucked and swallowed until Jack’s legs began to shake and he went limp in her mouth.

“You’re such a bad girl, sugar. You’re going to pay for not doing as you were told,” Jack whispered but Ben heard every word.

Ben was slamming into her now and he could feel the muscles of her pussy quivering as they bound tighter and tighter into a coil. She was going to break.

“Oh! Ah! Ben I’m gonna...”

“Oh yeah! Come on, baby. Come for me. Milk my cock,” Ben groaned.

Toni screamed as the coil snapped and she plummeted over the edge of the cliff with orgasm. Her body shook and quaked, squeezing and releasing his cock hard and fast. The tingles at the base of his spine warned of his own impending release.

“Fuck yeah. That’s it, babe, soak me with your cum. My turn,” Ben tipped his head back and yelled out his release. He fell on top of her being careful not to crush her small body with his large frame as he panted for air trying to calm his ragged breathing. When he could breathe again without gasping, he leaned down and placed a kiss on Toni’s lips. He had to bite his tongue so he wouldn’t blurt out those three words he was longing to say in case he scared her away. It was really hard to hold them back.

He and Jack had known the first time they set eyes on her that she was special. The one woman meant for them. They’d been going into her shop ever since courting her and trying to get her to go out with them but she had thwarted them at every turn. Well, he wasn’t putting up with that any longer. He had her right where he wanted her and he wasn’t about to let her go. Never again!

“You’re so sexy, baby,” Ben withdrew his half flaccid cock from her body. He moved over to the bin in the corner of the kitchen and disposed of the used condom. When he turned back Toni was sitting up on the table and trying to wiggle her arse off so she could stand. Jack picked her up and helped her to her feet holding her steady as she wobbled on legs none too steady.
