“This is the most comfortable bed I’ve ever been on. I think you two really need to join me.”
Both men moved swiftly to join her. Deke reached her first, his mouth claiming hers with searing kiss that made her toes curl and reignited her passions in an instant. His hazel eyes were dark with need, his touch demanding, and she found herself opening to him, giving all she was. A puff of warm breath blew over her other breast, the only warning she received before Trevar’s drew her nipple into his mouth and laved it with his tongue.
She slid her fingers into Trevar’s hair, intent on holding him where he was, but he broke away with a chuckle, ignoring her attempts control him. “I don’t think so, kitten. Back on Earth, you might have been in control of your lovers, but not up here. My ship, my rules.”
Deke lifted his head and winked at her. “Just ignore him. He suffers from the delusion that because he’s old, he’s supposed to be in charge.”
“I’m not old, thank you. I’m experienced. When it comes to this, experience is a very good thing.” Trevar started working his way lower, drifting kisses down her rib cage and stomach until he reached her navel. While he did that, Deke kissed her again, his calloused thumb stroking back and forth across her nipple until every touch had her trembling. When Trevar began tracing circles around her belly button, Sonja moaned, her pleasure muffled against Deke’s mouth.
It was getting difficult to breathe and nearly impossible to think as both men worshipped her in their own way. Deke’s mouth was like a firebrand, and Trevar’s skillful touches were making her ache with need. She wanted to have them inside her. Either of them, both of them, she no longer cared. Trevar pressed his hand between her thighs, parting her labia to press his index finger down on her still sensitive clit. The moment she arched her hips, he slid that finger down the length of her pussy and then deep inside her, adding a second finger soon after the first.
“I want to watch you come again, and then I’m going to fuck you while Deke plays with those pretty tits of yours. Then he’s going to fuck you, and I’m going to be right here, watching and listening. There is nothing in the galaxy sexier than seeing a woman lose control and hearing her crying my name, begging for more of what we’re going to give you. Is this what you want, kitten? Because if it is, I want to hear you say so.”
Trevar’s crude words affected her like rocket fuel hitting open flame, unleashing a firestorm in her blood and freeing her from the last of her uncertainties. She turned her head, freeing herself to be able to speak. “I want this, I need this so badly. I want both of you. All of you. Please, don’t stop.”
“Stop? Hell no. We’re just getting started,” Deke told her before reclaiming her lips with another scorching kiss.
After that, her world was filled with nothing but pleasure, Deke’s mouth on hers, heated caresses, and the delicious friction of Trevar’s fingers plunging in and out of her body with breathtaking skill. Ragged breathing and low groans of desire blended with the slick sounds of sex. Sonja drank it all in, wanting to remember everything. She was the focus of two men’s desire, and there was nothing she could do but accept their attentions and give in to the exquisite joy of the moment.
When she came, she barely recognized her voice as she cried out their names.
Her body was still trembling with the aftershocks of her orgasm when Deke coaxed her to roll onto her side, facing him. He stroked her cheek, the ardent kisses of only a moment before softening to something far tender. Trevar moved up behind her, sweeping the weight of her hair aside so he could drift a line of kisses down the column of her throat. She could feel the thick girth of his cock against the curve of her ass and she wriggled on purpose, grinding their bodies together until he groaned and reached down to grip her thigh with one big hand.
“Open your legs for me,” he commanded, coaxing her upper leg up and back until it was draped over his thigh. Deke’s hands claimed her breasts as Trevar shifted his big body lower, reaching between her legs to position himself outside her entrance. The thick head of his cock pressed into her wet heat, and Sonja’s breath caught in her throat as he eased himself into her tight passage.
“Fuck, you’re tight,” he groaned into her ear and Sonja deliberately flexed her inner walls, squeezing him tighter. Trevar cursed and Deke laughed, the vibrations rumbling into her mouth until he broke their kiss to speak.
“It’s not smart to tease a man on the edge, sweetheart.”
“No, but it’s fun,” she replied, and then gasped as Trevar’s hips surged forward, burying himself to the hilt.
“I warned you,” Deke murmured, kissing her once more before lowering his head to her breasts. He suckled a nipple into his mouth, teasing the diamond peak with rapid flicks of his tongue. Pleasure washed over her and a fresh flood of cream soaked her pussy.
“Whatever you’re doing, she likes it, so don’t stop,” Trevar said, his voice strained. He held still for another moment, then began rocking his hips, teasing her with slow, shallow thrusts that had her nerves singing. He placed the pad of his middle finger on her clit and began massaging it in gentle circles, matching the pace of his thrusts. She took Deke’s head in her hands, cradling him against her breast with shaking fingers. When she inadvertently touched the port located behind his ear Deke tensed, but as she stroked the tender skin around it, he shuddered and relaxed again. Tearing his mouth from her breast he took her mouth in a savage kiss that pressed her back against Trevar.
Deke ground his cock against her thigh, and she reached between them, wrapping her fingers around the hard length of his shaft. He groaned and pumped his hips faster, his tongue tangling with hers.
Trevar was in heaven, or as near to it as he had ever been. Sonja’s sweet pussy felt like it was made to fit him, gripping him tight with every thrust. Her emotions were so close to the surface he couldn’t block them, her joy and her pleasure adding to his own. He sensed the moment Deke’s control finally snapped, and that was enough to break Trevar’s will to send him hurtling into orbit right along with them. He buried his face in the soft cloud of her hair and let himself go, fucking her hard as he worked her clit with his fingers. If he was going to come, then so was she. The three of them writhed and bucked in the middle of the bed, Sonja with her eyes closed and her body open to them both.
“Come for us, kitten. Show us how good we’re making you feel. I want to feel you come before I do…and I am holding on by a thread right now,” Trevar whispered in her ear as he worked her body to the breaking point, and then beyond it, her cries like music to his ears and her body milking his cock as she rode out her orgasm in his arms. Before she was done, he followed her, burying himself balls deep as a powerful orgasm rolled through him.
Deke watched her face as she came, fascinated by the way her eyes shifted colors as she was carried away on a wave of pleasure. She cried out Trevar’s name, then his own, her fingers releasing his cock at the final moment.
His thoughts raced and primal feelings tore through him, defeating every effort to control or subdue them. He wanted Sonja. Needed her with an urgency that was like nothing he’d ever known before. As if sensing his thoughts, Sonja stirred, untangling herself from Trevar with slow, shaky movements. He should wait. Give her a chance to catch her breath.
He didn’t.
“I need you, sweetheart,” he told her, and she gifted him with a sexy little smile that sent his heart slamming against his ribs like it was trying to break free of his body.
“Good,” she murmured, freeing herself from Trevar’s embrace and stretching out on her back between them.
Trevar chuckled, brushing a quick kiss to her lips before moving away, capturing one of her hands in his as he settled down a few feet away. “You’re insatiable and utterly amazing, kitten.”
Deke was in complete agreement with Trevar. She was amazing, and as he moved over her, settling his hips into the cradle of her thighs, Deacon knew that once with her wasn’t going to be enough. Maybe by the time their week was
done, he’d have gotten her out of his system, but somehow, he doubted it.
“Be with me, Deacon,” she murmured, lifting her legs to wrap them around his hips.
“Don’t have to ask me twice,” he replied, bracing an arm on either side of her as he arched his hips and plunged his cock into the welcoming heat of her pussy.
Sonja felt him ease into her body, stroking over nerve endings still tingling from her last orgasm. He didn’t stop until he was fully seated inside her, and the heat in his gaze as he stared down at her was enough to rival the sun. His mouth claimed hers, and as it did, she could have sworn he growled a single, possessive word.
“Mine.”
Before she could respond, he began to move, withdrawing nearly completely before surging back into her body. She tightened her legs around his waist on his next thrust, taking him deeper and preventing him from withdrawing quite so far. He retaliated by nipping at her lower lip, breaking their kiss to growl at her.
“You’re not in charge of me either, sweetheart.”
She eased her grip a little, grinning up at him as she gave in to the temptation to stroke his bearded cheek. “Says who?”
“I do.” The answer came as he drove himself deep again, pushing her down into the mattress.
Sonja arched upward and squeezed her inner walls around his cock, not sure why she was challenging him, but doing it nonetheless. He sealed her lips with another torrid kiss, and then pushed his upper body higher, increasing the angle of his thrusts as he began to drive himself in and out of her body with a power that left her unable to think. She untangled her legs from his waist and he moved even faster, a raw groan of need escaping his lips as she drew her knees up to either side of his hips.
“Fuck, you’re so tight like this. So perfect,” he panted, every muscle in his arms standing out as he drove himself into her again and again. She curled her fingers into the heavy bulk of his shoulder, her nails biting into his skin as the pleasure robbed her of her control. Deke rode her hard, pushing her to new limits as his own control shattered and she found herself in the arms of a man possessed.
He whispered her name like a chant, the words falling from his lips in time to his lovemaking. When he came, he buried his face in her crook of her neck and groaned, a shudder passing through his big body as he emptied himself inside her. The thickening of his cock and the sound of his pleasure triggered her release, sending her body and her mind soaring.
When she came back to her senses, Deke was still holding her, and Trevar still had her hand captured in his larger one. As she stirred, so did her men, and soon she was tucked in between them, Trevar curled up behind her back and Deke facing her, cuddling her close. For Sonja, it was a more intimate moment that anything else they’d shared that day. No one had ever just held her, offering her the comfort of their presence and nothing more.
She laid one hand on Deke’s chest, over his heart, and reached back to place the other on Trevar’s hip. “Thank you. Both of you. That was so much more than I had ever imagined it would be. Even if they catch me and send me home tomorrow, I’ve already gotten to experience something special.”
Trevar raised himself up on one elbow behind her. “What do you mean, more than you imagined it would be? You’ve done this before, haven’t you?”
Sonja’s cheeks heated and she closed her eyes so she didn’t have to look into Deke’s surprised face as she confessed. “I’m not a virgin, but I’ve never had sex with two men at the same time. Not unless you count holo-programmed lovers.”
Deke groaned. “Sweetheart, are you telling me that we were your first time as a trio?”
“Fuck me. Kitten, you should have told us!”
She finally opened her eyes and turned onto her back to find both of them staring down at her. “Why? What we did was incredible. I wouldn’t want to change a thing.”
Trevar flopped back onto the bed and threw an arm over his face. “I’m glad we didn’t do this back in the lounge…on the counter.”
“Me too. That counter was damned cold!” Sonja closed her eyes again, and wriggled deeper into the sinfully soft bed, ignoring both men’s shocked expressions.
Deke sighed as he snuggled in beside her. “Sweetheart, we’re going to have to work on your communication skills while you’re aboard.”

CHAPTER SEVEN
The last two days had flown past in a blur of laughter, sex, and camaraderie the likes of which Sonja had never known before. Maybe it was because there were no expectations, no chance at a future together, but there had been very few awkward moments between the three of them. This was the kind of relationship she’d always dreamed of, and it was bittersweet to finally have it, while knowing it couldn’t last.
None of them spoke of the future. It was as if they had all sworn a silent pact not to bring it up. That hadn’t stopped her from thinking about it, though. What would she do without them? What was she going to do, period? Her credits wouldn’t last forever, and she was going to need to eat, not to mention eventually move on from X2, likely to a planet where the tattoo on her face had no meaning.
Helios maybe. They were a matriarchal society so she’d have some protection there. If she could find transportation there. If they would accept her. If her heart didn’t get shattered to atoms the day she had to say goodbye to Trevar and Deke. Caring for them hadn’t been part of the plan. Not that she’d had much of a plan the night she’d bolted. She had really thought there’d be more time to prepare. It wasn’t fair. She’d wasted so many years of her life merely existing, and now that she had things she wanted to do and people she actually wanted to get to know, time was slipping through her fingers like quicksilver.
The electronic babble and chirp of the droid sitting in front her snapped Sonja out of her funk. It had been Deke’s suggestion to do evaluations and repairs to the pair of cargo droids that were aboard the Arca. It was something to do to pass the time while she was stuck inside the freighter, waiting. They’d docked at Jikrat Station several hours ago, but it wasn’t safe for her to be seen by the Alliance crew that had come to offload their share of the Arca’s cargo. Deke had stayed aboard with her, supervising the cargo transfer while she had stayed tucked away in his quarters. Once they were gone, he’d suggested the distraction of the droids, and she’d eagerly agreed.
The two droids were older models, well maintained, but with extremely basic programming. She was doing what she could to upgrade them, first by installing newer processors and memory out of the ship’s stores, then by tweaking their programs. At least, she called it tweaking. Deke had taken a peek over her shoulder at one point, and then walked away, shaking his head and muttering about programmers deliberately making shit difficult to understand.
Sonja liked working in robotics. It was satisfying to be able to watch as a program and hardware came together and created something that was more than the sum of its parts. Even these droids, as simple as they were, had a spark of life to them. They didn’t look human, but why would they? They had a job to do, and they were designed specifically for it. Two powerful sets of arms, a broad base that allowed them to handle heavy cargo without tipping, treads instead of feet for better purchase, everything about them had been designed with a purpose.
As she worked, Sonja realized that in some ways, she was a lot like the bots. From the moment she had tested as fertile, she’d been programmed to be exactly what an elite was supposed to want. Even her genetics had been tampered with. The Alliance had reprogrammed her on a cellular level, and her parents had done their best to continue the process. The thing was, she wasn’t a droid, and neither was Trevar or Deacon. They were all imperfect people, doing their best to get along in a system that didn’t fit them properly. Or in Sonja’s case, didn’t fit with the person she wanted to be, and not the person her family had tried to make her into.
Too bad changing the world’s parameters wasn’t as easy as fixing a droid’s.
With that though, she flipped the res
et button on the bot and quickly secured the access panel back into place. As the system went through its boot-up cycle of lights and chipper beeps, she took a few steps back. Experience had taught her that it was always best to be out of range of a droid coming back online after being reprogrammed. If anything went wrong, you wanted to be clear of any flailing limbs or other nasty surprises.
“Done already?” Deke asked from across the room. They were in what he had called the workshop, a small space that was lined with perfectly arranged tools and lockers that contained spare parts for damned near every gasket and gizmo that made the Arca run. The lockers took up huge amounts of space, leaving very little area to work in, but Sonja understood the necessity. In the depths of space Deke would have to be able to repair or replace anything that failed, or they’d be adrift in the mind bogglingly empty expanse that made up the universe.
“Tic’s finished. Once I’m sure the updates aren’t causing problems, I’ll work on Toc.”
“You named our droids?” He snorted with laughter as he left his workspace to join her to watch Tic reboot. She liked this new side of Deke. The one who laughed sometimes, and even smiled every once in a while.
“They’re part of the Arca family, so yeah, I thought they should have names. Besides, they’re no longer identical, or won’t be once I’m done with Toc. I’m giving them harmonized programs, so they’ll work in tandem, but with slightly different abilities.”
Deke’s brow quirked upward. “Explain.”
“Well for a start, Tic is now sort of right handed. He’ll always gravitate to the right side of anything, whether it’s a shuttle, a stack of inventory, or a single cargo container. His default is now right, and Toc’s will be to the left. If the upgrades work like they’re supposed to, the droids will function as a team now, instead of two independent entities.”
