Leo shuddered his climax just as Blair said, “I’m losing it…fuck, yeah,” and released himself inside her as well. Ally was still in the last stages of her orgasm when they both found completion, and in that moment, it was like the three of them were one entity.
Bonded forever.
A fanciful thought, perhaps. But it was hard to think pragmatically when you’d just had your body, and heart, plundered by two men.
It was a while before any of them moved. Eventually though, Ally had to concede her knees could only take so much and, issuing hasty apologies, the guys pulled gently out of her. They fussed over her like doting lovers, tucking her under the bed covers, massaging the feeling back into her arms and legs, laying sweet kisses on her cheeks and stroking her hair.
After a few minutes, Ally started to laugh. “I’m not broken, you know. You don’t have to fix me.”
Blair laughed too. “Oh, we know you’re in perfect working order.”
“You’re perfect, full stop,” Leo added, his expression serious. “Perfect for us.”
Ally’s heart squeezed. “You really meant what you said. You want this to go on… to continue and be a…a…”
“It’s called a relationship, Ally,” Leo drawled.
“I know what a relationship is.” Ally rolled her eyes. “But I’ve never imagined myself in one that involved more than two people.”
“Me neither,” Blair said.
“You’ve never wanted a relationship at all,” Leo pointed out.
Ally turned to look at Blair. “And for some reason you want one now?”
“That some reason is you, Ally Cat. I want you anyway I can have you, and I think this—” his look encompassed Leo to indicate he meant the three of them, “—could be the best kind of arrangement for a guy like me.”
Ally frowned at his a-guy-like-me remark. “How so?”
Blair ran a hand through his hair and fell back against his pillow. “You may have noticed I can be a bit domineering. Having another guy around to tell me when to pull my head in could be mighty useful.”
Ally burst out laughing. “Oh, Blair. All you need for that is a woman who won’t take any shit from you.”
“That too.” He found her hand and linked their fingers, then brought her knuckles to his mouth and laid a soft kiss against them. He turned and pinned her with his bright blue stare. “And I think I found her.”
Ally’s heart went pitty-pat on cue. “Oh, boy,” she said, knowing she was in deep trouble if Blair was turning sweet on her. She swiveled to study Leo, who was still propped on one elbow, gazing at her. “What about you? Why would you want to share a woman when you could easily find a nice girl to love the hell out of you? You know you’re freaking adorable, right?”
Leo smiled bashfully at her compliment. His cheeks even turned red.
Yep. Freaking adorable.
“The truth is I’ve wanted something more permanent for a while.”
“Hey, you never told me that,” Blair said.
Leo shrugged. “I didn’t know how to. And maybe I was afraid to really try to date normally. I might never have found a girl who understood what I’m…you know, into.”
“You mean watching,” Ally concluded. “You can’t have a good time without that?”
“Hell, yes, I can. But sex is better for me when it has that element. Not many girls would put up with me asking them to screw some other guy while I got off on watching.”
She arched an eyebrow. “I had the impression there have been quite a few women willing to hit the mattress with you two.”
“None who took us seriously.” Leo held her gaze. “None who we were serious about.”
Her heart did that painful squeezing thing again. When she thought about it logically, she knew this idea of theirs was crazy. A three-way relationship. How in heck did something like that even work? It seemed to work for her brother, sure, but she’d figured that was some weird fluke.
Yet her heart didn’t care much for logic. It was telling her it would be far too easy, and maybe even right, to fall in love with both of them.
Her in love with two men. The other two men in her life—her father and brother—would flip their lids if that happened.
“People do it, Ally,” Leo said. “Your brother, for one.”
“Yeah, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to think it’s okay for me to do it. And my father—you know he’s a sergeant in the police force, right?”
“Yeah.” Blair winced. “He’s never shot anyone has he?”
“Not yet, but there’s always a first time.”
Leo and Blair shared a look. After a moment, Leo asked him, “What do ya reckon?”
Blair nodded, his mouth kicking up at one corner.
Leo turned back to Ally with a grin. “We think you’re worth it.”
Oh, Lord help her. “Guys, I don’t know what to say.”
“Say you’ll try it,” Blair said. “Say we’re worth it.”
“Oh, hell.” Ally covered her face with her hands and groaned into her palms. Was engaging in thrilling ménage sex with two incredibly hot firemen worth coming out to her family as a naughty little devil instead of the pristine angel they all wanted to think she was?
Leo bent down and kissed her temple, then left a trail of kisses leading to her ear that made her shiver.
On her other side, Blair nuzzled her neck and cupped her breast, giving it a playful squeeze.
Fuck, yes, it was worth it.
“Okay.” Ally sighed, letting out all her worries. There had to be a way to work this out. “I’ll do it.”
“You will?” This came from Leo, who followed up his excited question with a resounding kiss.
Ally moaned into his mouth as Blair took her nipple between his lips and gave it a good, hard suck. Astoundingly, desire rose swiftly within her again. She arched into Blair’s mouth, threading her fingers through his hair to hold him to her.
Before he really got going though, Blair lifted his head. “We have to tell Corey.”
“Yeah,” Leo agreed. “There’s no way I can work with him and keep this secret.”
“God, don’t you tell him.” Ally could just imagine Corey, usually such a marshmallow, turning violent as Blair and Leo tried to tell him what they’d been doing to his precious little sister. “I’ll do it.”
Leo asked. “Are you sure?”
“It’s better coming from me.”
Blair said. “We should be with you.”
“No,” Ally insisted with an emphatic shake of her head. “Let me do it on my own. Promise me you won’t say anything until I speak to him, guys. Promise.”
Neither of them seemed too happy with that arrangement, but at length they both nodded, albeit reluctantly. “If that’s what you want,” Leo said.
“It is.” Ally gave him an impish smile. “I also want you to kiss me again, and take terrible advantage of my naked state.”
“All you had to do was ask,” Blair said and bent his head to her breast again.
A moment later, Leo took her other nipple into his mouth and swirled his tongue around it, his actions complementing Blair’s. It was so delicious, having both her breasts orally pleasured at the same time. When Blair headed farther south, seeking out her newly dampened pussy, Ally bit her lip and gripped the pillows on either side of her head.
Oh yeah. Whatever she had to go through family-wise, it was so worth this.
One week later
“I can’t believe you haven’t told him.”
Ally looked at Leo with big, blue, imploring eyes. “I’ve only seen Corey once this week and it was at a family dinner. It wasn’t the right time.”
It’d been a week, when was the right time going to happen along? Leo wondered. He’d been on shift with Corey twice in the last seven days. The man had even commented on the fact they hadn’t picked up any chicks lately, asked if he and Blair were having a dry spell. Leo hadn’t known what to say. “And you can’t call your brother for a
chat?” The frustration sounded in his voice.
“It’s not the kind of thing I want to say over the phone.” Ally laid a hand on Leo’s chest and leaned in close, so close her body heat penetrated him through both their T-Shirts. “I asked for some time, baby. Please be patient.”
Ally ran her hand over his pec. Leo’s heart thudded against her palm. She flicked a fingernail over his nipple until it stood out in relief against his T-shirt. He felt himself harden.
“Please.”
He let out a low growl. “Ally, your big blue eyes are only going to get you so far.” Leo wasn’t sure how true that was. When she was looking at him with her eyes all round like that, and pressing her body against his, he figured she could get away with anything. “You have to tell him this week. He deserves to know. I deserve better than to be hidden like some shameful secret.”
Remorse flashed across her face. “You’re right. I really am sorry. It’s just hard…”
“Hey, hey. I understand.” Leo wrapped both arms around her and pulled her in tight, his heart contracting at the sheen of tears in her eyes. “I’m just crazy about you, that’s all. I want your brother’s approval and I’m being impatient. You’ll handle things in your own time.”
She’d promised to tell Corey, and Leo believed her. He had to. The alternative was to think she was avoiding the task, and that led to all sorts of possibilities he didn’t want to contemplate. Like she wasn’t really into this like he and Blair wanted her to be. Like she was embarrassed by them.
“I don’t want to talk about it anymore, Leo. Not tonight.” Ally slipped a hand beneath his T-shirt to feel his abs. They contracted beneath her touch. “Tonight I want to concentrate on you.”
Blair was working night shifts while Leo had a couple of days off. Ally also had a rare night off from waitressing at the Sovereign, where she’d been working almost every day since she’d started. Leo had invited her around for spaghetti carbonara, which he’d cooked to perfection, if he said so himself. He hoped he’d impressed her with his domestic skills, which were well honed from eight years of living in share houses and small apartments on his own.
They’d done the dishes together. He’d washed, Ally had dried, and over the task, they’d talked about their hopes and dreams. Ally had told him she liked the idea of having her own business, like a café. Leo loved his job as a firefighter and never wanted to leave.
Now the dishes were done and they were alone at last.
Ally slipped a hand into the waistband of Leo’s jeans and discovered him erect. She teased his hard-on with the slow scrape of one fingernail.
Leo’s breath caught. “Ally…”
Apparently encouraged by his helpless groan, Ally slipped the button on his fly free and lowered the zip. Soon she had him hot and heavy in her hand and he was watching the place where she stroked him intently. “Do you like that?”
“You know I do.”
Ally held Leo’s gaze. He saw the intent in her eyes before she lowered to her knees and took him in her mouth.
He watched her the whole time, his gaze both thrilled and tortured as she worked him with her tongue. He watched as she removed her halter top to reveal her braless breasts, and swore beneath his breath as she pinched her nipples with one hand and stroked him with the other.
“Damn, baby. You’re so sexy.”
Ally treated his throbbing staff to a long, slow lick. “I want you to come all over me,” she said huskily.
It was an invitation designed to incite a man’s lust, and Leo’s swiftly grew out of control. He enjoyed sharing Ally with Blair, especially loved how having them both pay her attention made her crazy with desire. Yet there was something thrilling about being alone with her too. For the first time, it was just the two of them.
Leo wanted to mark her, make her his as well as theirs. He acquiesced as she took him deep again. She worked him hard until his moans grew louder and more frantic. He felt it sweeping him up in its orbit, his approaching orgasm. He pictured losing his load, spurting it all over her face and neck. Fuck. From the excited gleam in her eye, he knew she’d let him do it.
He held off with a mammoth show of willpower, pulling out of her mouth before he lost it. “You first, baby. You’re gonna come in my mouth.”
He got down on the floor with her, eased her back on the hard wood. Then he ripped off her shorts and panties and buried his face in her sweet pussy. He licked, sucked and plundered, taking her with same confidence she had displayed with him. He knew what she liked already, knew when to add pressure, how to use his fingers to complement the movements of his tongue.
It wasn’t long before she was clutching his hair and crying his name. The taste of her drove Leo wild. He waited until he knew her climax was easing off—somehow he waited. When at last it was his turn, he got on his knees and watched her blissed-out body writhe gently as it began to settle. She was so sexy all naked and replete on his floor. Leo took his cock in hand and pumped.
Ally’s eyes widened. “Yes.”
It was all she had to say. Before long, his seed was shooting out of him, landing in long pearly streaks on her stomach, her breasts. A mark, a brand, as emphatic as any Blair had landed on her with the flat of his hand.
She was perfect, and she was his. Leo knew in that moment that he was falling in love with Ally Wachawski.
And he hoped to hell it was mutual.
Two weeks later
“I think you’re avoiding telling Corey about us on purpose,” Blair mused as he ran the leather strap teasingly over her breasts. “You like getting into trouble.”
Ally bit her lip to keep from whimpering at the way the soft brush of the leather flogger made her nipples flourish. She was blindfolded, naked and secured to all four posts of Blair’s wooden timber frame with fur-lined cuffs. Leo was at work, and she was alone with Blair…at his mercy, which was mildly frightening and intensely hot. She had to submit to the binding because they’d agreed she would if she hadn’t confessed the truth to her brother by the end of the week. It was Friday and she’d chickened out. Again.
Or was Blair right and she’d hidden the truth on purpose? There was no denying the delicious thrill she got from being tied up and punished by Blair Bowman.
“You know, I don’t mind the secret too much,” Blair went on. “As long as I have you where I want you, it doesn’t matter to me that I have to lie to your brother for a little while. But Leo’s not like me. He’s too damned decent to keep doing it.”
“I know.”
She’d tried to tell Corey this week, seriously tried. She’d even called him and asked to come around for coffee. He’d been alone at the house he shared with Erica and Griff, so it had been the perfect opportunity. She’d begun by asking him if he was truly happy in his triad relationship.
He’d grinned and said, “Hell yeah.”
Ally had smiled too. “Maybe I ought to grab a couple of guys and try it myself.” she’d suggested.
Corey’s grin had instantly turned to a frown. “Do it and I’ll have to take ’em both down.”
“So it’s fine for you, but not for me?” Ally had asked, her heart pounding as she scowled at her brother.
“It’s not easy, Al,” Corey had explained, turning somber suddenly. “Griff, Erica and I are happy, sure, but we still get funny looks from some people when they work out what’s going on. We get a lot of personal questions asked of us, or worse, people we think are going to be cool with it suddenly can’t look us in the eye. It’s an unusual situation, and it’s not widely accepted. I fell in love with two people and I couldn’t live without either one of them, so for me all that bullshit doesn’t matter. But I don’t want the same thing for you, sis. It’s not worth it unless those two people are really important to you.”
Ally had ended up leaving without telling Corey the truth, and with much more weighing on her mind than she’d had when she’d arrived. Were Blair and Leo important enough to her to make the fallout worth it? She’d thought so,
but her brother’s sage words gave her pause.
“You know what has to happen now, don’t you, Ally Cat?”
Blair’s question brought her back to the present, and she couldn’t prevent a quiver of anticipation from wracking her frame. Her voice was raspy. “I have to be punished.”
“That’s right.”
Blair brought the leather flogger down on her flesh, a light tap against each of her feet. It was more like a tender kiss than a punishment. The blows came down a little harder as they moved up her legs to her thighs. Her flesh tingled with awareness, her inner muscles clenching as he neared her pussy. When Blair dragged the soft tails of the flogger over her mound, wetness seeped out of her onto the bed sheets.
She arched away from the mattress, pleading for a firmer touch. Blair denied her, of course, moving the flogger upward to tease her stomach and bare breasts. He flicked the leather over her sensitive flesh until her nipples were tight and throbbing, until Ally was writhing in the bindings. “Blair, please.”
“I think you should call me Master tonight.”
Ally gasped, more shocked by the demand than anything Blair had ever done to her before.
When she didn’t say anything, Blair eased the blindfold up so she could see. He was looking down at her with a challenge written on his features. “Unless you’re not fully committed to this process…or me and Leo. Is that what’s really holding you back from telling your brother the truth?”
Ally thought of Corey’s warning words “It’s not worth it unless those two people are really important to you.”
“I don’t know. But maybe.”
There was no point in being anything but honest when she was tied naked to a bed. She was already as exposed as she could possibly be.
The disappointment in Blair’s blue eyes made Ally’s heart ache. “You should know I’ve never asked anyone to be my girl before. Ever. It wasn’t nothing that I asked you.”
Ally’s eyes stung. “Oh, Blair—”
“No.” He covered her mouth with his hand. “You know what to call me.”
He slowly removed his hand, allowing her to speak. He traced the outline of her lower lip with his finger until it trembled, and Ally blurted out what he wanted to hear. “I’m sorry, Master. But I’m afraid. I’ve never wanted anyone in my life either, not permanently. I don’t know if I can do it.”
