STORY EXCERPT

Beth took a long, hot shower and got into one of her large sleeping shirts, crawled into bed, and stared at the ceiling. She was so tired and knew if she didn’t get a good night’s sleep soon she was going to collapse with exhaustion. Her busy mind wouldn’t allow for her to drift into sleep. She tossed and turned for a while then she gave up, got out of bed and pulled her clothes back on. Beth headed out to the kitchen to get a glass of water and nearly stumbled when she saw Zach sitting at the kitchen table with a deck of cards.

He looked up at her as she walked further into the room. “Can’t sleep, hon?”

“No.” Beth searched the cupboards for a glass and then filled one with water. She carried it to the table and sat down opposite Zach. “What are you playing?”

“Patience.” Zach scooped the cards back into a pile and began to shuffle them while he watched her. Beth looked away and hoped her cheeks weren’t as red and they felt. “Do you want to play a game?”

“Sure.”

“What do you want to play?”

“I don’t mind, you choose.”

“Do you know how to play Blackjack or maybe Poker?”

“Poker sounds good.”

“Okay, what are the stakes?”

“Um, I don’t have much money.”

“I wasn’t talking about cash, honey.” When she met Zach’s eyes she had to look away again. Her face felt even redder than before. Her nipples hardened and her pussy wept cream onto her panties. The look he gave her was lethal and she wondered if she should just go back to bed to escape his hunger-filled eyes.

“Okay, no stakes, but you can’t blame a guy for trying. You’re gorgeous Beth.”

Beth didn’t know what to say to that so she said nothing. She watched Zach’s long thick fingers and tanned hands as he dealt the cards and couldn’t help but imagine what it would be like to have those hands on her skin, touching her naked body.

She picked up the cards he’d dealt her and watched as he revealed the river. All she had was a pair of twos and she decided it was best to fold.

They played for well over an hour and with each hand he dealt her she began to get more comfortable in his presence. He regaled her with stories from his childhood and his twin brother Tomas.

“We had a Boxer dog when we were little. He was so damn big and muscular all the other kids were scared of him but he wouldn’t have hurt a fly. Anyway, Tom and I had been fighting and mum must have got sick of our bickering and she sent us out to the backyard to play. Tom thought that Prince, our dog, looked hungry and decided we needed to cook him something. So we dug up some dirt and put it in a bowl and after making sure there were lots of worms in it we added water and patted down the mud and then we tried to get the poor dog to eat it. Needless to say he wouldn’t have a bar of his pie.”

Beth burst out laughing. She could just imagine Zach and his brother looking at the dog in confusion because he wouldn’t eat their culinary masterpiece. Zach chuckled along with her and she felt lighthearted for the first time in years.

“Anyway, after that we decided to take it in turns riding prince around the backyard. God he was a good dog. He let us do just about anything to him.”

“I never had any pets.” Beth gave Zach a wistful smile and then covered her mouth when she yawned.

“Why don’t you head back to bed, honey? Maybe you’ll be able to sleep now that you’re feeling better.”

Beth rose from her seat, walked around to Zach and kissed him on the cheek. “Thank you.”

Zach smiled. “You’re welcome, Beth.”

Beth headed back to her room but she looked back at Zach just before turning the corner. She had to cover her mouth to stifle a giggle. He had been checking out her arse. Beth didn’t think she’d ever giggled before. She sighed as she removed her clothes and crawled back into bed. Even though she felt better she still couldn’t stay. There was no way she wanted anything to happen to Zach and Noah because of her.

ADULT EXCERPT

“Relax, hon, it’s just me.”

How the hell she was supposed to relax when she’d ended up sandwiched between two men was beyond her, especially when they were making her body burn from the inside out. Noah had broken the kiss and then he had turned her toward Zach. Zach had pulled her up close against his body and devoured her mouth. She’d whimpered when Noah had stepped away from her but then Tom had come up behind her and she’d sighed with relief. Her body had been aching so much for the touch and even though their kisses made her ache more she didn’t want them to stop touching her.

By the time Zach weaned his mouth from her lips she’d been so turned on she could hardly stand upright and see straight. Tom turned her by her shoulders and then he had kissed her hungrily. The kiss was hot, wet, wild, and carnal and Beth knew if she didn’t stop them she would end up in bed with them. She didn’t know if she could go through with her plan to leave if that happened so she had stopped the kiss with Tom and scurried from the room.

Beth had felt a little guilty over that. The poor men were probably confused by her mixed signals just as much as she was. She wanted and needed their touch and kisses but was scared they would come to mean too much to her. She came back to the present when Tom shifted and it was only then she realized that she was breathing too fast.

She knew they knew she was awake and her breath hitched in her throat when the covers were pulled down and three sets of hands began touching her. She should have opened her eyes but she didn’t want to break the sensual spell they had begun to weave over her. Beth had wanted this for so long and now that it was actually happening, she didn’t intend to stop them. She couldn’t deny the ache deep inside anymore or the way she was becoming to care for each of them. The more time she spent with them the more she felt.

Large, warm hands were running up and down her body, coaxing her thighs apart as they slid along the length on her inner thighs. She moaned and arched her lower body then moaned again as more hands joined in and began to caress her. The hands seemed to be everywhere, on her thighs, her hips, stomach, and breasts. She moaned again as they massaged the small, firm globes of her breasts, then gave a gasp of pleasure as fingers plucked and pulled at her sensitive nipples through the silk of her lacy bra.

The cups of her bra were pulled down and her nipples were enclosed in warm, wet mouths and she pushed her chest up for better contact. She felt her panties being pulled down her legs and off over her feet. Another pair of hands spread her legs wide, then a large, gentle finger ran the length of her inner folds, gathering the cream weeping from her body, and then another finger moved to her clit where it circled the erect bundle of nerves. Around and around with ever-decreasing circles the finger rubbed, until she was writhing with the exquisite pleasure.

Another thick digit pushed its way inside her wet sheath and she nearly screamed when the finger on her clit was removed to be replaced by a hot, wet tongue. Her mouth encountered warm soft masculine lips and she opened with a sigh then whimpered as the tongue thrust in to tangle with hers.

Tom was kissing her. Noah was between her legs and Zach was paying homage to her breasts. She was on sensation overload. Hands and mouths caressed her whole body and she lay shaking with her desire. Never had she experienced anything like this and she wanted them to continue touching her.

“She’s so wet and damned tight,” Noah said in a deep voice, and Beth wanted to open her eyes but they were weighted with desire and wouldn’t obey her command.

“Are you a virgin, Beth?”

She was a little embarrassed that Noah had figured out her little secret but that didn’t really matter right now. All that mattered was that he, Zach, and Tom continue touching her.

“Yes,” she groaned.

“Oh yeah, she’s ours. No one else is going to ever see this delectable bald pussy and sexy little body,” Zach rasped.

“Beth, open your eyes, babe.” Noah demanded.

She opened her eyes and met a pair of blue orbs staring at her with hunger. Noah was kneeling between her spread thighs. The mattress beside her dipped and she shifted her gaze to either side of her, meeting a pair of hungry, soulful brown eyes and then heated, amber-flecked brown eyes. Zach and Tom were lying beside her.

“What…”

“We want to pleasure you, Beth. Will you let us make you feel good?”

Beth stared at Noah uncomprehendingly for a moment and then felt her face heat with arousal when she realized what he’d asked. She’d thought they were already pleasuring her and had been wondering why they had stopped. She was so tired of being alone and lonely. Beth was sick and tired of fighting what she felt for these three men. Being on the run had been such a tiring feat and now that she had found a place to call home and men she was attracted to she wanted nothing more than to give up control and let them touch her, love her, cherish and protect her.

No Beth, not love. Love has nothing to do with this. It’s just sex.

She thought about refusing Noah’s request but she didn’t want to. She needed to feel alive and wanted, even if it was only in a physical way and for a short time. She needed these three men touching her, loving her, making her feel desirable.
