Temptation & Trouble: A MFM Romance

by Kelli Callahan

  “I’ll admit, I was a little skeptical at first. We’ve shared girls, but we’ve never let actual feelings get tangled in what we were doing.” I leaned back in my chair and sighed. “I don’t want it to get complicated, but this isn’t a traditional relationship.”

  “No, but we both need this. I need it to experience love that isn’t so fucking complicated. You need to see how much it can chance your perspective on everything.” Harlan smiled and tilted his head. “It already has—I can see it in your eyes.”

  “Is it that obvious?” I folded my arms across my chest and chuckled. “It’s still pretty new, but all I can think about is the future. I want to watch Kacey graduate from college. I want to see her live out her life—fuck, man, I’m even thinking about children.”

  “I’m glad I’m not the only one, although I’m not sure how that would work. Two daddies?” Harlan raised his eyebrows. “Or would we try to figure out who the real father is?”

  “If it happens, we’ll figure it out. Honestly, I don’t even care.” I looked at him and nodded. “I think we approach it the same way we approach the relationship itself—we love unconditionally.”

  “Listen to us—talking about babies.” Harlan chuckled and smiled. “It’s way too early to think about it, anyway. She needs to finish college first.”

  “Agreed.” I nodded quickly. “She’s spent too much time dwelling on the past. She needs to find her place in the world before we start thinking too far into the future.”

  “Well.” Harlan leaned forward. “It’s Saturday and neither us have to work, so I think it’s time to wake up our princess.”

  “I agree.” I stood and stretched out my back. “She’s been in that bed along for far too long.”

  The idea of a relationship was so new to me that I didn’t really know how to approach it. I had spent so much time trying to avoid it that I was ready to jump in with both feet. It just felt right. No matter how I felt, it needed to be right for Kacey. She was the glue that held us together, and I didn’t want to push my twisted view of love on her. I liked what we had, and I wanted more—hell, I wanted everything. That was scariest part of all. I was treading the line of temptation and ready to embrace the future. I had to make sure she was ready before we allowed things to progress further. I was having fun—that was okay for the moment. We could figure out the rest of it in time.

  “Wake up.” Harlan crawled in bed and started kissing Kacey’s neck.

  “You’ve been asleep for hours. We missed you.” I climbed into bed on the opposite side and slid close to her.

  “The sun is barely up. It’s Saturday.” She opened her eyes and rubbed away the sleep. “You didn’t get enough last night?”

  “Did you?” I slid my hand down Kacey’s abdomen and started rubbing her clit. “You begged for more until we were both exhausted.”

  “Oh god.” Kacey moaned when she felt my touch. “I guess I can always nap later.”

  Kacey’s desires flourished once we started to move our lips against her curves. I rubbed her clit several times before pushing into her wetness. She was already turned on and ready for us, even if she was still waking up. Harlan started kissing her lips and I took my position between her thighs. I entered her hard, forcing my dick inside her pussy until I felt my balls pressed against her skin. She moaned and I gave her a moment to adjust before I started to thrust. Her pussy started to squeeze my dick when I hammered her g-spot a few times. Her moans got louder and even the fury of Harlan’s kiss wasn’t enough to silence her passion. She wrapped a hand around his cock and stroked it while I hammered mine deep inside her tightness.

  “This really is the best way to wake up.” She put a hand on my chest and let out a gasp. “I love spending Saturday with the two of you.”

  “Maybe we’ll just bring you breakfast in bed so you don’t even have to get up today.” I grunted as I felt her pussy clench my dick.

  “I wouldn’t complain about that.” She looked at me and smiled. “Especially if it means we’re going to do this all day.”

  “This is all we’re going to do.” Harlan reached down and started rubbing her clit. “We’ll make you cum so many times you forget your name.”

  It didn’t take me long to feel the pressure in my balls that begged for a release. Kacey’s pussy was amazing. It begged for cum every time I felt it wrap around my cock. I would have prolonged the inevitable if I didn’t know that I would be inside it again once Harlan was done. I wrapped my hands around her thighs and picked up the pace, watching her eyelids flutter as she got close to an orgasm. I grunted as the primal urges took over. I pushed her legs back until her knees were near the mattress and started pounding her as hard as I could. Harlan’s hand was sandwiched between us, but I could feel him working on her clit as I went deep.

  “Oh god! I’m gonna cum!” She bit down on her lip and then her mouth opened wide.

  I love that fucking scream.

  The pressure in my balls made them heavy and they slapped against her as I hammered my cock into her pussy—over and over until her body started to shake. Cum surged through my shaft and then it erupted inside her like a volcano. Her orgasm made the screams that roared from within her even louder. Her pussy spasmed on my dick, milking every bit of it out of me before I was finally spent. I kept pounding until her spasms stopped and her muscles relaxed. A calmness settled on her face and she looked at me with a smile. I slowly withdrew and before I hit the mattress, Harlan was pushing me out of the way and moving into position.

  “My turn.” He growled and forced his dick into her pussy.

  I watched as the ferocity raged in Harlan’s eyes. He slammed into her so hard that the bed shook. The headboard slammed into the wall several times when he went deep. Kacey’s muscles got tight after several thrusts and I could tell she was going to cum again—long before Harlan was done with her. Her second orgasm was so intense it made my cock hard again. I couldn’t wait for round two. I grabbed the back of her head and pushed my dick into her mouth. Her tongue massaged my shaft and every time she tried to squeal, her throat vibrated against my glans. It felt incredible. Harlan’s thrusts got faster and I could hear him breathing hard. He was about to erupt, and I was right there with him.

  “So fucking good.” Harlan exhaled sharply and smiled. “I’m about to explode!”

  “God damn, me too!” I drove my dick deep into Kacey’s throat and felt the cum surge through my shaft.

  Our bodies melded together in bliss. Kacey’s muscled tightened and relaxed as the third orgasm seized her. I dumped my second load into her throat and her tongue massaged me until I was drained again. Harlan’s thrusts became erratic as his seed flooded Kacey’s pussy. We kept the motions going until we were all spent. I pulled my dick from Kacey’s mouth and slumped down beside her. The first time had been amazing, but the second one left me exhausted. Harlan dropped down on the mattress and pulled her into his arms. The coffee Harlan and I had for breakfast didn’t give us enough energy to move once we were beside her. My fingertips grazed her body as my eyes closed.

  This is the best feeling in the world.

  Chapter Fourteen

  Kacey

  I was scared of what I felt. I swore I would never open my heart again after Chad, but I was doing more than that. I was letting myself become vulnerable after promising I never would allow myself to open my heart to another man. That was more dangerous than attraction. That could destroy me completely. I felt the pain once when I was betrayed, and it wasn’t just one cut. It was like a saw that kept going for two years. I waited and waited for it to finish me off, but it never did. It left an open wound—one that wasn’t completely healed. I was doing better than I had in a long time, but I still worried. Things could change in an instant and go from amazing to heartbreaking. I wanted to believe that it was possible for Harlan and Gabe to both care about me, but it wasn’t easy to find my faith again. I was either the luckiest girl in the world or headed down a path that would finally leave me
totally broken.

  Losing my virginity had been a liberating experience. When we were together and I saw the desire resonating in their stares, I truly believed we could weather any storm. I wanted to believe in forever. I never imagined myself falling for two men that wanted to share me, but I had. Every day that passed pulled me further away from the darkness that once consumed me. I no longer needed a drink to numb the pain. Sex provided a new version of euphoria, and it made me feel things alcohol never had. If I could get out of my own head and let them finally vanquish my fears, then I would no longer care about the past. I no longer had a bleak future ahead of me. My life was on track and no longer stuck on pause. They took me to heaven every night, and I didn’t want it to end.

  “Good morning, beautiful!” Harlan looked up at me as I stumbled into the kitchen and walked towards the coffee pot.

  “How are you so chipper? It’s Monday.” I shook my head at him in disbelief.

  “Here, I’ll get that for you.” Gabe poured a cup of coffee and handed it to me.

  “It was a great weekend.” Harlan chuckled and smiled. “Why wouldn’t I be happy?”

  “Because it’s over?” I sat down at the table across from him. “Because we didn’t get much sleep at all?”

  “Sleep is overrated.” Gabe put his hands on my shoulders and started to massage them. “We like staying up all night with you a lot more.”

  “I hope you got your fill last night, because I’ve got a long week ahead of me.” I moaned as Gabe hit a tight spot between my shoulder blades. “I’ve got so many assignments I can barely keep them straight.”

  “We’ll help you.” Harlan nodded quickly and reached for his coffee cup. “Obviously we can’t do your assignments, but we can help you study, do some research—whatever.”

  “Oh?” I tilted my head to the side and grinned. “Do you think you could keep your hands off me that long?”

  “I’ll give it the old college try.” Harlan chuckled and sipped his coffee.

  “Believe it or not, Harlan was actually a pretty good student. I wouldn’t have made it through college without him.” Gabe stopped massaging my shoulders and sat down next to me.

  “Okay, I’m not going to turn down some help.” I sipped my coffee and put the cup back down. “That isn’t the only thing on my agenda this week, though. I’m supposed to meet Abby in a few days, and I’m sure that will be a late night.”

  “You’re not going to use your fake ID and sneak into a bar, are you?” Gabe narrowed his eyes at me.

  “Probably—she did mention getting a drink.” I shrugged.

  “Is that a good idea?” Harlan tilted his head to the side.

  “I’ll probably just have water.” I shrugged again. “I haven’t been in the mood for alcohol much lately.”

  “Good. Do you think she’s going to ask you to be her Maid of Honor?” Harlan raised his eyebrows inquisitively.

  “More importantly, though—can you get a plus two instead of a plus one?” Gabe leaned back in his chair and chuckled.

  “That might be a little difficult.” I put my hand to my mouth as I thought about trying to explain our relationship to Abby. “Not as difficult as it will be if I ever try to explain it to my mother.”

  “It’s okay.” Harlan leaned across the table and took my hand. “What we have is beautiful, but we can keep it private. Gabe can be the face of our relationship.”

  “I guess that would be easier than telling either of them that I’m involved with some guy that used to hang out with my dad.” I chuckled and grinned.

  “Plus, I’m filthy rich.” Gabe folded his arms across his chest. “I’m a catch.”

  “Hey!” Harlan narrowed his eyes in mock anger, but then smiled. “No, it’s the right thing to do.”

  “Thank you.” I squeezed Harlan’s hand. “I do want to repair things with my mom. I didn’t realize how much I would miss her and my little sister once I moved out.”

  “You should go see them today.” Gabe nodded quickly. “Family is important. You’ve got one that loves you.”

  “Yeah.” Harlan nodded as well. “Talking on the phone isn’t enough, trust me. Plus, you can invite them over for the holidays.”

  We finished breakfast and I headed off to school. I felt the weariness of the weekend when I sat down and opened my book in my first class. I really was functioning on much less sleep than I was used to, although the quality was better since I wasn’t passing out every night in a drunken haze. I got another cup of coffee after my first class and finally started to wake up. The classes went by in a blur and before I knew it, I was right back at home working on my assignments. College was a lot more difficult than high school, and after spending two years outside of the classroom, it wasn’t an easy transition. The main thing that kept me going was the support system I had with my two wonderful men.

  “Hi, Mom.” I smiled when she opened the door.

  “You don’t have to knock like a stranger, come on it.” She pulled the door back and motioned with her hand.

  “Thank you.” I walked inside and hugged her.

  “Lucy will be home soon, but let’s talk for a few minutes.” She broke from our embrace and walked towards the living room. “You look so much happier than you did the day you left.”

  “I am happy.” I followed her into the living room and took a seat on the sofa. “Happier than I’ve been in a very long time.”

  “So, how are things with Abby? Are you still sleeping on her couch?” My mother tilted her head to the side.

  “No.” I shook my head back and forth. “I’m actually staying with someone else—someone you know.”

  “Oh?” She raised her eyebrows in surprise. “Who?”

  “Do you remember Harlan Yancy?” I pursed my lips together, nervous about the explanation I was going to give.

  “Yeah, of course. You’re staying with him and his wife?” She nodded and shrugged. “They’re good people. Why there, though? Why not just come home if you’ve turned things around?”

  “They’re not together anymore.” I drew a breath of hesitation. “He’s living with one of his friends now, a guy named Gabe.”

  “Hmm, I don’t remember anyone by that name. Was he one of your father’s friends too?” She seemed to be processing the information and her eyes squinted.

  “No, he’s—my boyfriend.” I slowly exhaled, waiting to see if she freaked out.

  “Wait, you’re involved with someone and you’re living with them?” Her mouth opened in surprise. “Kacey, you haven’t been gone that long.”

  I did my best to explain things to my mother. I could see the concern on her face, even after I explained how good Gabe was to me. She seemed happy that I was in a better place emotionally, but she didn’t fully accept the fact I was living with someone that I was involved with romantically. It was a good thing I didn’t tell her the entire truth. She would have probably tried to have me committed. We finally reached common ground and she agreed not to pass judgment, as long as I was careful. She had been there through the entire breakup with Chad, and was afraid I was rushing things with Gabe. I understood her concern, but I was committed to my choices—even the ones I didn’t tell her about.

  “Kacey!” I heard Lucy’s voice behind me and she nearly tackled me when she hopped on the couch.

  “Wow, you’ve grown!” I wrapped my arms around Lucy and smiled. “You’re shooting up like a weed.”

  “Are you back? I’ve missed you so much!” She pulled back from the hug and grinned. “I didn’t touch anything in your room, I promise!”

  “No, I’m not coming back home to stay, but I promise that I’ll visit all the time.” I grabbed her for another hug. “I’ve missed you too.”

  “Can I come visit you when you’re not visiting me?” She squirmed out of the hug. “That way it would be like we were together all the time!”

  “Maybe not all the time.” I stifled a chuckle. “But Gabe has asked that you two have Thanksgiving dinner with
us.”

  “Gabe?” Lucy looked perplexed. “Who’s Gabe?”

  “He’s your sister’s boyfriend.” My mother’s tone was tense.

  “Boyfriend? You’re not in love again, are you? Love is—oh, I’m not supposed to say that part around Mom.” Lucy glanced at my mother and looked back at me.

  “Yeah, why don’t you forget that entirely. I was in a bad place then. You definitely shouldn’t have been listening to anything I said.” I looked at my mother and mouthed an I’m sorry.

  I decided to stay for dinner. I really did underestimate how much I missed my family. Just being with them and being happy was an amazing feeling. Somewhere between spaghetti and garlic bread, my mother agreed that she would join us for Thanksgiving. I believe Lucy was the most excited one of all. The holiday season would bring complications, but I didn’t want to spend it apart from the ones that mattered most. Gabe and I could pretend to be a happy twosome and Harlan could play the role of our roommate. That was a lot easier than the truth. I finally felt like I had everything I needed to put the past behind me entirely.

  “Thank you for dinner.” I stood at the door with my stomach full and a smile on my face.

  “You’ll come visit us tomorrow?” Lucy looked up at me and grinned.

  “I can’t come by every day, but I promise I’ll see you soon.” I leaned down and hugged her.

  “Take care of yourself.” My mother put her hand on my shoulder and then pulled me in for a hug. “I love you, darling. If you ever need me, I’m here.”

  “That means more than you know.” I hugged her tight. “I promise you’ll only see the best side of me going forward.”

  I left my mother’s house with tears in my eyes. It didn’t hurt as bad as it did when I moved out, but it still felt like goodbye. A weight was lifted off my shoulders. In a way, I was saying goodbye to the girl that used to live there. I had become someone else entirely. I was lucky to have a family that loved me and even luckier to have two wonderful men waiting on me. Some people that went down the dark road I traveled never found happiness. They let despair consume them. I had felt that darkness nearly consume me and after seeing the light again, there was no way I would ever stray from what truly mattered. I simply couldn’t put myself through that. Life was too good to waste, and mine finally belonged to me.
