“Aren’t we a pair?” Amber smiled at their reflection. “I’ve waited years for this moment. My bff has finally come out of her cocoon and has spread her beautiful wings. Oh, I can’t wait for them to see you!” Amber squealed and clapped her hands with glee. “Let’s go!” She grabbed Simone and started pulling her towards the bedroom door.
They heard the men talking downstairs. Amber stopped Simone at the top step, brushed her hair to hang over one shoulder, exposing her bare back and then turned her and gave her a gentle nudge to descend the stairs. With a shaking hand, Simone clutched the railing and started down.
Jackson and Xander sat in the living room talking and drinking beer, waiting for them to finish getting ready. When they heard her footsteps they turned to look up and they stopped in mid-conversation. They froze in place, only their eyes moved as they tracked her progress down the stairs.
When Simone reached the bottom of the stairs Jackson and Xander slowly rose, as if they were afraid she’d disappear if they moved too fast. Simone walked towards them shyly.
“Jesus Christ, Si!” Xander exclaimed.
“Simone…” Jackson breathed.
“If you think the front is great, wait until you see the back.” Amber said proudly as she hopped down from the last step.
She walked over to Simone and gently spun her around to show off the back of the dress. The only sound in the room was a sharp intake of breath and a low hiss.
“Fuck my life!” Xander nearly panted.
“Change of plans. We’re staying here. I don’t think my heart can take you being in public like this. I mean…I…I have no words.” Jackson said deeply.
Simone blushed prettily as Xander stepped closer to her to inspect her close up.
“Um…Si? Are you wearing any underwear?” Xander asked in disbelief.
“Not exactly.” Simone answered warily.
“She can’t wear a bra or panties because you’d be able to see them. Sexy, right?” Amber beamed.
“That’s an understatement.” Jackson groaned. “We won’t be able to leave your side for one second. I think you’re trying to give me a heart attack.” Jackson shook his head. “But you are nothing short of breathtaking.” He murmured deeply before kissing her softly on the cheek.
“Thank you.” Simone responded quietly, a shiver going down her spine as Xander ran a finger down the middle of her exposed back.
The men had her sandwiched in between them. Overwhelming her with their raw masculinity as usual. Simone’s pulse jumped in her neck at Jackson ran his fingers down her throat. And Xander’s lips found the spot at the base of her neck. Simone closed her eyes on a soft gasp. Wrapped up in each other, they forgot about the pretty redhead.
“Ahem.” Amber coughed before the trio could get carried away and she was left with a front row seat to their lovemaking this time around.
Simone’s eyes flew open, remembering that they were not alone. “Sorry, Amber.” She blushed.
Jackson and Xander reluctantly took a few steps back away from Simone, needing to put some distance between her. Both had no qualms about taking her in front of her best friend, but they figured she’d probably have an issue with it.
As they banked the fire in their eyes, the front door opened suddenly and chaos flowed in from outside.
“The party is here!” Ethan shouted as he burst in the front entrance. He wiped his feet on the rug and tossed his coat and scarf on the bench in the front hall.
Behind him piled in Delanie, Christopher and a pinched face Bethany. They all chattered animatedly as they took off their outside clothes. Ethan walked into the living room first. Not seeing Amber right away he took in Simone’s appearance with blatant appreciation and whistled low through his lips.
“Dammit, you fuckers are some lucky son’s a bitches!” Ethan said ogling Simone as she blushed at the attention.
Ethan was dressed in nice black boots, dark-washed jeans with a cuff at the bottom, a black button-up dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and his hair was in the current style. It was cut in a fade around the sides and back, slicked over with some type of styling wax with a side part. He definitely had a whole sexy hipster thing going on, which did not escape Amber’s notice.
“Uh, Ethan? This is my best friend Amber. Amber this is Xander’s youngest brother Ethan.” Simone introduced them, so that Ethan could focus his attentions on someone else.
Ethan turned to look at Amber and the look on his face was comical. His eyes bugging out of his head like a cartoon character and he nearly drooled down the front of his shirt. As Amber smiled seductively and held out a slender hand for him to shake, he tried to get control of his shocked expression.
“Youngest, but the most handsome. Nice to meet you, Amber.” Ethan boasted as he took her hand and kissed it softly.
“You just might be right.” She responded sweetly, beginning to spin her deadly web of temptation Simone had seen her use numerous times on many an unsuspecting man.
“Oh, I like you.” Ethan grinned, not realizing that he had already fallen for her trap.
“The feelings mutual…so far.” Amber said, golden eyes glowing, knowing she had him.
Simone’s attention was quickly pulled away from the interaction of the newly matched couple, by Delanie’s squeal of excitement.
“Oh. My. God! Simone, you look sensational! Oh, tonight is going to be so much fun!” Lanie proclaimed.
“That remains to be seen.” Jackson said grimly.
“Oh, stop being such a grumpy old bear.” Lanie shoved Jackson with sisterly affection.
“You look lovely too, Lanie.” Simone smiled at the bubbly woman.
Delanie had went with a pair of bootcut jeans, a pretty green off-the-shoulder sweater that complimented her eyes and her hair up in a messy side bun.
“Thanks, Si.” She said hugging Simone and then moving in to greet Xander with a warm hug.
“Hello, Simone. You look stunning. And I’m glad to see that your run in with that bear didn’t send you running home screaming.” Chris said, giving her a quick embrace and a smile.
“Thanks, Chris. And after dealing with these two fuzzy beasts, I’ve gotten used to disgruntled animals.” Simone joked.
“Hey! We’re not that hard to deal with!” Xander said defending them.
Simone gave him a sassy grin before her eyes connected with Bethany’s. If looks could kill, Simone would have been on the floor dead with a pool of blood around her. A shiver went down Simone’s spine.
“Bethany.” Simone said nodding her head in acknowledgement.
“Simone.” Bethany responded coldly.
“So are we gonna eat and get outta here? Or are we going to continue standing around shooting the shit?” Ethan asked no one in general.
At Ethan’s insistence, they all migrated to the kitchen to help themselves to the delicious beef stew that Jackson had prepared, ready to start the night.

Jackson, Simone and Xander rode in Jackson’s truck toward downtown Fairbanks, while everyone else had piled into Chris’s SUV and trailed behind them.
“I feel a little over dressed for Fairbanks. Is there any place that I won’t stick out like a sore thumb?” Simone asked nervously.
“Yeah, but it doesn’t matter where we go, you’ll still stick out.” Xander grinned down at her, his dimples charming her as usual.
Jackson grunted in agreement.
“I’m just trying to keep up with the two of you.” Simone stated truthfully. “You both look very handsome tonight.” Simone praised.
Under their coats Jackson wore a black V-neck sweater that fit his broad muscular frame like a glove and Xander wore a cream tight fitting thermal with a green hooded zip-up sweater that made his hazel eyes glow green and conformed to his lean swimmers physique. And of course they paired them with their usual staples of jeans and boots.
“Mmm…is that so? Just make sure that you stay nearby and don’t bend over.” Xander
murmured low as he moved closer to her, his warm hand stroking a path up her thigh to the naked skin of her quickly moistening labia.
“Xan…don’t.” Simone tried to protest feebly.
“What?” Xander whispered breathless against her lips.
“Not here, in the truck where we can’t finish.” Simone pleaded as her hips betrayed her, pumping towards the finger that slipped into her heat.
“Oh, you don’t think so?” Xander challenged before unbuckling her seatbelt and pulling her onto his lap.
He made quick work of undoing his pants, releasing his throbbing erection and lifting her up, plunged into the deep recesses of her aching sex. Simone grabbed ahold of the dashboard in front of her as he took her roughly and quickly. Both their climaxes building within seconds. They both shouted out their release as Jackson white knuckled the steering wheel in anticipation, his own erection pressing painfully against his jeans.
Jackson quickly pulled into the parking lot behind the nightclub. Throwing the truck in park, he unbuckled his seatbelt, undid his jeans and grabbed a limp and sated Simone off of Xander’s lap like a ragdoll. Pulling her over to straddle his hips, he kissed her red lips as he impaled her with his pulsing cock.
The intrusion hit her sweet spot, instantly revving her body up and immediately sending her into another orgasm. Her quaking muscles rippled around him and he came hard a moment later, after only a handful of deep thrusts.
Her forehead fell on his shoulder in exhaustion. Xander reached into the glove-box for several clean napkins. Lifting her off of Jackson, he gently cleaned her up.
“That should keep the wolves at bay, now that you’re completely satisfied and covered in our scent.” Xander said softly against her temple.
“Was that what this was all about?” Simone said drowsily. “To mark your territory?”
“Well, that and that dress. We wanted to fuck you senseless since the moment we laid eyes on you in it.” Jackson admitted.
“You can’t even see it right now under my coat.” Simone reasoned.
“Doesn’t matter. That image will be eternally etched in our minds.” Xander smirked, tapping a finger against his temple.
Someone banged on the truck making Simone jump. “Let’s go! What are you guys doing in there and why are the windows all foggy?” Ethan shouted from outside.
“Come on, Si. Let’s get moving before I have to choke out my baby brother.” Xander said, trying to hold onto his patience with his little brother.
They all got out of the truck to meet the others and all of them except Bethany started laughing.
“Well, now we know why the windows were all foggy, if the smeared lipstick all over Jackson’s face is any indication. Aside from the fact that the three of you look like the cat that got the cream.” Lanie teased them.
Jackson quickly wiped his mouth and face with his coat sleeve, while Amber helped clean up Simone’s smeared lipstick and reapplied a fresh layer of color. When they were finally presentable, the eight of them walked briskly into the darkened nightclub.
The pulsing sounds of music reached their ears as they checked their coats. The atmosphere charged their blood with a sense of excitement for the night. Especially for Amber and Ethan who had already disappeared into the dim club. Xander and Jackson flanked either side of Simone, protecting her from any untoward advances, like Norse Gods.
“What do you want to drink, Si?” Lanie shouted to Simone over the music.
“Uh…I don’t really drink much. So I have no idea.” Simone answered
“How about a Long Island Ice Tea? They make them really good here.” Lanie suggested.
“Okay.” Simone shrugged not knowing much about the drink.
“Hey boys? Get Simone a Long Island. And I’ll take a rum and Coke.” She informed them as only a little sister could.
Jackson stood several inches taller and was considerably broader than everyone at the bar, so the bartender spotted him quickly. Within a few minutes Jackson handed them all their drinks.
“So I never got around to asking what all of you do for a living.” Simone said to Delanie, curious about the big family.
“Well, I’m a kindergarten teacher.” Lanie started and Simone smiled thinking that was the perfect profession for the bubbly woman. “Bethany is a legal aid for a small law firm. And Chris and Ethan are both fishermen like my dad before he retired.” Lanie finished.
“I bet your students love you. You have such a happy personality.” Simone told the younger woman.
“Yeah, they’re a lot of fun.” Lanie smiled with a distant look in her eye. Simone assumed she was thinking of her students. “Now drink up. I wanna dance!” Lanie bounced to the music playing as she quickly downed the rest of her drink.
Simone followed her lead and slurped the rest of her drink down. She instantly got a head rush and then a nice fuzzy feeling draped over her like a blanket. Lanie grabbed her empty glass from her hand and placed it on the bar and then grabbed her hand.
We’ll be right back.” Lanie yelled to the guys as she pulled Simone out onto the dance floor where Amber and Ethan were already grinding against each other.
“Um…Lanie. I don’t really dance.” Simone said helplessly as Lanie dragged her to the middle of the dancing crowd.
“Just move with the beat and you’ll figure it out. Not to stereotype, but both your cultures are known for having great rhythm.” Lanie waved off her protests.
Once they had found a relatively empty spot, Lanie started to dance around happily as the song Bang Bang started to blare from the speakers. Simone swayed a little to the beat of the song, not exactly sure what to do since she never went dancing. But as the song changed to Usher’s Good Kisser, the beat turning slower and more seductive, Simone felt someone behind her. Looking back she saw that it was Amber.
“Just roll and sway your hips. Pretend as if their tongues are on your clit. And your body will move accordingly.” Amber whispered in her ear, placing her hands on Simone’s hips guiding her and nodding her head in the direction of her men.
Simone looked over in their direction. Jackson and Xander’s eyes were on her and her alone. As she stood captivated by the weight of their stares; Amber, the crowd and everything else disappeared. All that remained was the throbbing beat of the music, the hazy feeling of alcohol coursing through her veins and her men. It felt as if she was alone on the dance floor and they were her audience. And from someplace buried deep inside, where her body recognized the beat, a pulse spread through her frame that mirrored the rhythm. And her body started to roll, flex and sway seductively to the song.
As the men watched her, their eyes became hooded and they shifted restlessly. Simone rolled her body from her chest to hips. Her ass fitting snugly into Amber’s pelvis. Amber slowly moved around to Simone’s front. Her hands caressed down the front of Simone’s body. She dropped down in front of Simone and slowly slid back up her body.
Simone gazed over at Xander and Jackson, beckoning them. Their mouths were slightly open and their chests rose and fell rapidly. Their gaze so intense, it felt as if everywhere their eyes moved on her she could feel the echo of their hands there.
They quickly swallowed the rest of their drinks and started to make their way onto the dance floor. The song changed to Maroon 5’s Animal as they reached her. The provocative beat of the song surrounded them as Jackson took her front and Xander her back. They fused into one as they began to dance together.
Simone could feel Jackson’s hardened length against her hip and Xander’s at the crease of her ass. Jackson’s hands ran up and down her sides. His thumbs brushing inconspicuously over her hard nipples. Xander’s hands caressed at her bare back. Her clit throbbed with need to the beat of the music. And as if he knew what she needed. What she wanted. Xander’s hand secretly snaked between the loose back of her dress and slid down to her naked pussy.
The way they had her sandwiched between them, no one was the wiser as Xander covertly strummed at her clit
. Jackson continued to circle her sensitive nipples with his thumbs and Simone wreathed between them in time to the music. And as the song hit its climax, so did she. Simone cried out, but the sounds of the music drowned out any noise from her.
As the song ended, Jackson and Xander guided Simone off of the dance floor for another drink at the bar. Lanie followed close behind, also ready for a break.
“Holy crap! You guys are smokin’ hot together!” Lanie declared fanning her flushed face. “I try not to look at my brothers in that way, ‘cause that’s just gross. But I couldn’t help but stare at you three together. And neither could the entire club. Literally all eyes were on you guys.” Lanie added. “I couldn’t tell if my sister wanted to barf, rip your hair out or murder you in your sleep.”
This time Xander handed them their fresh drinks. Lanie stopped talking long enough for them to take a much needed sip after dancing up a good sweat. Simone glanced over to where Bethany had been standing on the other side of the bar with another woman. They were talking animatedly and sneaking hateful glances over at her.
“I feel so uncomfortable around her.” Simone said as quietly as she could to Lanie without the guys hearing.
“Uncomfortable around who?” Amber said as she bounced up to them. She was the only person Simone knew that could look gorgeous covered in sweat. Instead of looking limp and oily, she glistened.
“Oh, my stupid sister, Beth.” Lanie answered for Simone.
“Yeah, what’s her deal anyway? I kept noticing her giving you the evil eye all night.” Amber asked curiously as she gladly took the drink Ethan handed her.
“She’s jealous of Simone because she’s in love with Jackson and he only thinks of her as a little sister.” Lanie rolled her eyes.
“Well, she’ll just have to get over it.” Amber shrugged apathetically.
“Don’t let her get to you or sway your decision to stay, Si.” Lanie comforted.
“Yeah, I know.” Simone said thoughtfully.
“By the way, I was wondering what your plans were. Are you coming back with me and starting work at Dr. Roth’s office? Or are you going to stay here with them? I know you said you were still deciding, but you have to at least know which way you’re leaning towards.” Amber asked trying to stay neutral.
