His big body quivered; moisture pooled in her panties. He took a deep breath; she held hers. He took several steps back away from temptation; she moved forward.
When he ordered David to leave, she wanted to scream. She had them both together, alone. Now, she needed to tell them what she wanted. What she needed. Before Nico withdrew from the situation.
“What does Natalie want?”
“She wants the three of us to become lovers.” The words came out. She frowned. The voice sounded like hers, but she looked behind her to see if someone else had spoken. She saw him again, closer this time. He leaned against the hood of David’s car with a smile on his face. He winked.
“Say that again.”
She turned back to Nico. He watched her like she’d gone crazy. Maybe she had. A quick glance over her shoulder showed the man was gone. The palms of her hands grew moist, and she wiped them against the wool fabric of her skirt.
“I-I want to have sex with both of you.” She looked from Nico to David and back. “Together.”
Neither man moved. Nico’s eyes were narrowed on her while David’s were narrowed on Nico. No one said a word. Sisters of Mercy wailed in the background. Natalie fought the urge to cover her ears and scream, Turn that shit off!
She shook with disbelief at what she’d asked of both men, but knew the moment of truth had to be now, or never. She’d waited too many years. After the fiasco with Rudy, she refused to put her desires and needs in the background any longer.
Nico stepped toward her. She released the breath she hadn’t been aware of holding. When he drew level with her, her body quivered with his anticipated touch. Her nipples hardened with every tortured breath she took. The puckered skin scrubbed against the thin material of her bra. She knew he could see the points through the rough fabric of her sweater. The idea caused a flood of moisture between her legs.
He stepped around and behind her. Close enough for the heat of his body to warm her back and buttocks, but he didn’t touch her. He leaned forward, then stopped when his mouth lay next to her ear. She shivered and closed her eyes.
“Sure you want that, Braces?”
The whispered sound of his old nickname for her caused her to shake in violent reaction. Hell, yes, she was sure. She nodded, not trusting her voice not to stutter, like she’d always done. She didn’t want to give any hint of indecision on her part. The time for uncertainty had died when he walked out of David’s apartment that morning, leaving her with the feeling her entire world had crumbled at her feet. She loved him.
She looked into a security mirror in the corner above her head and spotted David. She loved them both.
“Don’t move.” Nico stepped away.
She bit back a groan of protest, but did as he had instructed. Her back to him, she heard him pull the garage doors into place with a snap of the lock, loud and final. She’d made her decision. Whatever happened this afternoon would seal their fate. She glanced again at David’s reflection.
He, like her, stood still as a statue. By some unspoken agreement, they took their lead from Nico. That’s what they’d always done. He oozed dominance and authority. Rare were the occasions she’d stood up to him. When she had, he’d looked surprised, but pleased at her bravado. Today, all her courage had been spent in voicing her need. Her energy had waned, and she could only stand where he’d left her and wait.
Suddenly, her body angled backward. She screamed until Nico’s shoulder and arm caught her upper body while his other arm hooked beneath her knees. He hefted her weight up and closer to his chest. Natalie clutched his shoulders with her hands.
He felt strong. Muscles rippled beneath the palms of her hands. The smell of his aftershave tickled her nose. She breathed in deeply and closed her eyes against the warm male scent of his skin.
“Let’s give the lady what she wants.”
Her eyes opened and she looked over Nico’s shoulder to see David following close behind. Their eyes met, but they didn’t speak. She could see anticipation and desire on David’s face. The same desire she felt spiraling out of control through her body.
Nico’s knee pushed against her bottom at the same time his other shoulder butted the door, leading into his apartment. The shades were drawn and the lights were off. The small space lay in darkness, but he didn’t stop. His stride steady and determined, he headed for the bedroom.
Natalie’s mouth watered. She swallowed and wondered at what they would actually do to and with each other. She buried her face against his shoulder.
“Don’t go getting shy, Braces, after you’ve promised me the moon, the stars ... hell, the whole fucking universe.”
He let her go. With a whoosh, she fell into the softness of the mattress. Pillows scattered across the bed and floor as he followed her down. Before she could respond, his mouth covered hers, and she drowned in the heat that consumed her. She thought she heard David moan from the corner by the door.
At the sound of David’s moan, Nico’s cock throbbed harder. He knew what to do. The night he’d let David suck him off, he’d pretended his friend had been Natalie. But not today. He would take Natalie every way he’d ever imagined; then he’d take David like he’d always wanted, but had denied.
He was tired of fighting the truth. He wanted ... no ... needed ... both of these people. He pushed his tongue deeper into Natalie’s mouth. The sweet mewling escaping her shimmied up his spine. His hands tore at the hem of her skirt. If he didn’t get inside her quick, he’d come. He heard David move up behind him.
Nico tore his mouth away from the woman he held pinned to the mattress. His gaze met David’s. The desire he saw mirrored his own. David moved forward.
“Let me undress her.”
Nico nodded, then moved back where he could remove his own clothes. Within seconds his jeans and T-shirt lay in a jumbled mass on the floor. He watched David and Natalie together on his bed. While David pulled her sweater loose and over her head, her nimble fingers unsnapped and unzipped his jeans. Long fingers from each caressed and teased in the process while hungry lips searched for relief.
David reached for the front clasp of her bra but hesitated to pinch a hardened nipple. Natalie arched into his hand with a hiss from between clenched teeth. In retaliation, she slipped her hand beneath the denim of David’s pants and cupped his balls. David groaned.
Nico smiled. The sense of urgency faded. With one foot he hooked an old ladder-back chair from beside the door, twirling it around where he could straddle the back of the chair and sit down to watch the festivities playing out in front of him. No way in hell would he miss these two fucking each other in his bed -- every fantasy he’d ever had, acted out live and in color.
When they were naked and panting, they turned to him, waiting for instructions. A sense of power vibrated through him, and his cock twitched. Without taking his eyes off his companions, he wrapped his hand around his arousal. With one long stroke, he clenched his teeth and looked David in the eye. “Eat her pussy while ...” He shifted his gaze to Natalie. “... you suck his dick.”
Not once did they blink in refusal. David shifted his hips and body around where he could delve into Natalie’s wet cunt. His cock dangled, long and thick, in front of her face before she licked the shaft from base to tip, then sucked the head deep into her mouth and throat. All three moaned together.
David grasped her thighs with both hands and forced them farther apart. The coolness of the room fanned the moisture coating her skin. Natalie shivered at the sight she must be offering Nico. From his vantage point, he could see everything. The thought that she and David could drive him over the edge with what they did to each other urged her to take David’s cock deeper into her throat.
She heard him moan at the same time his tongue plunged deep into her pussy. The sensation of his hot tongue licking her clit had her rotating her hips harder against his mouth. She released his cock to suck in a much-needed gulp of air. “Oh, yeah ... oh, yeah ... just like that, please.”
Davi
d could only oblige her demand. He would never have imagined Natalie could taste so sweet. The slightly acidic flavor of her pussy just added to her own unique spirit. He felt her tremble with the beginnings of her orgasm, so he eased the pressure of his tongue. He wanted to see how Nico would react to the sight of Natalie’s juice on his lips and face. He raised his head.
Nico’s gaze zeroed in like David knew it would. The black eyes narrowed and his nostrils flared, like he tried to smell what David could smell. David closed his eyes and breathed in deeply. “Ah, she’s heaven.” He opened his eyes to find Nico a half-inch from his face. He tried to move his head back, but Nico fastened a hand around his neck to pull him close.
David watched in fascination as Nico breathed in the musky scent; then his tongue traced the outside of David’s mouth to obtain the liquid essence he sought. David’s eyes closed at the touch of Nico’s mouth against his. His body shuddered at the combined ecstasy of Natalie’s hot mouth wrapped around his cock, sucking him while her hands kneaded his sac.
His body jerked once, then Nico pulled him off Natalie. His balls ached for release. He looked down at Natalie’s surprised and dazed expression. They turned to Nico.
“Not yet.”

Nona mumbled and turned another card face-up. She looked at the Celtic spread in front of her and frowned. Queen of Pentacles, Ten of Swords, Knight of Cups. She tapped her chin with her forefinger. Beside the cards, her tea steamed into the chill of the night air. The cards represented Natalie, Nico, and David, but didn’t tell her what she needed to know. Something didn’t feel right about their liaison. There was an outside influence somewhere. She shook her head and flipped another card. She gasped.
“Ah, my favorite.” A low, raspy voice emitted from the corner of the room that lay in darkness. “The Devil.”
Nona’s heart beat faster. She reached for the cordless phone, but her hand shook so hard, she knocked her tea over onto the tablecloth. Hot liquid scalded the skin of her right hand. “Ahh ...”
“Who were you planning on calling?” His head angled. “Ghostbusters?”
The figure moved forward into the light, and she stared in horror. He looked the same as he had years ago, when he’d visited her at the age of eighteen -- black hair, long and curling past the nape of his neck, long legs, and lean body. His eyes fringed by those black eyelashes, he could tempt a nun into his bed, much less a naïve, lonely girl.
“You’re as beautiful as ever, Sophia.”
Nona made a tsking noise with her tongue. “And you’re as smooth-talking as ever, Luke.”
He smiled; she didn’t. She nodded toward the cards.
“What are you doing with my granddaughter?”
His smile widened to show white, even teeth. “Nothing she doesn’t want done to her.”
Chapter Nine
Natalie straddled David’s hips. They’d been working each other for at least an hour, and now it was time for a position change. She hadn’t asked Nico for permission, but didn’t care. She needed to feel a thick, hot cock deep inside her. As turned on as she was, she didn’t care which one she had, either. She leaned down and kissed David’s abdomen, liking the play of muscles beneath his skin. She felt his dick tighten beneath her and moved to take him into her cunt.
Strong fingers worked into her hair and pulled her head back, hard. Nico’s mouth rested against her cheek. “What do you think you’re doing?”
Her gaze found his, narrowed. A dull red tinge highlighted his cheekbones and his nostrils were flared in either excitement or anger; she couldn’t be sure which. She’d made a decision without him, and he didn’t sound too happy. Anger flared within her.
“You weren’t participating, so I decided to heat things up a little.”
The grip on her hair tightened. “Ouch!” She refused to let him know that little move had made her wetter than anything so far tonight. Her nostrils widened. She wanted him to get rough.
“You’re going to climb off him and do what I tell you to do.”
“Oh, yeah?” Maybe if she defied him. She shivered in anticipation of the reaction she’d receive. She’d never tell him she liked him to dominate the situation. The more he ordered, the more she defied, and that usually led to some very combustible reactions, with him getting more aggressive.
“Yeah.” His tongue sneaked out to lick up the side of her face to the outer edge of her earlobe. He worked it like a snake and circled her ear, then plunged deep within.
Natalie whimpered and rotated her hips against David. David moaned.
“Damnation, let her finish. You’ve dragged this torture session on for an hour.” He shifted his hips beneath her. The rustle of the sheets blocked most of his tirade. “... bringing us up to the point of no return, then backing off. I’m about to explode.”
“You complaining?”
“If he’s not, I am.” Natalie grabbed Nico’s wrist to force him to ease up on her hair. “Let’s get this show on the road. I need one of you inside me, like yesterday.”
Uh oh. That black eyebrow rose and his mouth quirked at the corner. She knew that look. Exhilaration and fear coursed through her at the same time. She tried to scramble away and off the bed, but Nico caught her hips and drove her down onto David’s cock.
David arched up at the same time she arched back into Nico’s body. His thighs encased hers and his weight drove her further onto the thick pole between her legs. A searing pain spread from her vagina into her thighs. She bit her tongue to keep from screaming. She refused to give him that satisfaction. She knew this would be her punishment for defying him. What a way to go.
“You’re enjoying this, aren’t you?” His question held a mixture of excitement and frustration.
“Aren’t you?” Her teeth clenched against the spasms of her muscles as her body tried to adjust to David’s size. She’d never expected him to be this big. The crown of his cock had to measure at least three inches across. Where his cock had thickness, Nico’s had both width and length. Moisture flooded her vagina with the thought and she slipped further down David’s length.
“You wanted to fuck, so go ahead and fuck him hard, baby.” Nico had her arms captured at the wrists to prevent her from scratching him. He pushed his weight into her again, and she gasped as her body stretched to accept David, little by little.
“I should ... hate ... you.” Sweat covered her body in a light sheen. Her breathing grew ragged, but she couldn’t fight what she craved. Her hips worked her cunt further onto the man beneath her.
“Probably.” He kissed her neck. “But you know you love me, too.” He released her wrists long enough to push her forward where she lay, chest to chest with David.
“Hold her tight.”
Natalie tried to struggle up, but David’s hands held her biceps in a grip that denied freedom. She grinned at him. He looked like the cat that had lapped up all the cream. “You bastard, we’re supposed to be on the same side.”
David laughed, his face flushed from their exertions. “Baby, if he’s gonna do what I think, I’m with him. This is what fantasies are made of.”
“What are you doing?” She twisted to see Nico. At the sight of him spreading a thick, clear gel over his cock, she stilled. His gaze caught hers, and in that second, she knew what he intended.
She bucked her hips, but David caught her calves with his and held her arms tighter, locking her to him with his cock. The pressure of him inside her made her relax a nanosecond before she felt Nico come up behind her.
“Nothing you won’t like.” He pushed her forward.
David’s mouth caught hers with his tongue plunging deep at the same time Nico’s fingers, coated with lubricant, played around the entrance into her rectum. The combined pressure -- David’s cock and Nico’s fingers -- worked her to the very point of orgasm.
With the tip of his finger, he pressed inward.
She moaned her pleasure into David’s mouth, and her body squeezed around Nico’s finger
. He pushed farther, then held still. Her muscles contracted and expanded again to accommodate the deeper invasion. The fullness made her clit throb. She rotated her hips to grind her pubis against David’s, the need to orgasm strong.
“Not yet.” Nico eased his finger out.
Natalie pulled her lips free from David’s mouth. “Damn you, Nico, what are you waiting for?”
* * * * *
“What do you mean by that?” Nona didn’t like the way Luke had phrased his answer. “What is being done to Natalie?”
“Now, Sophia, do I really have to spell it out to you? Use your imagination.”
Nona’s heart flip-flopped. There could only be one scenario that Luke knew about, playing out somewhere in this city with Natalie, and it involved two men.
“You bastard!”
“I believe that’s what she called my son, too.”
His son! “Nico Bui is your son.” Nona fell back into her chair and closed her eyes. How had she been so blind? The resemblance between the two couldn’t be denied.
“You said it yourself, Sophia. ‘He’s a good-looking devil, isn’t he?’”
“Damn your demon hide.” The words she’d spoken to Natalie nights before came back to haunt her. In her own way, she’d blessed any union between the two that might arise. She sat up and reached for the cards, hoping there could be a way to stop what Luke tried to accomplish.
“Too late ... on both counts.” His hand covered hers. Black fingernails tipped the strong fingers as he laced their hands together. “I’m only granting the young lovers what all three desire.” He leaned closer. “I believe you promised me, when I granted your request, that I could have anything I wanted.”
“That was fifty years ago!”
“And you thought I’d forget?”
“I thought that you got what you wanted with Nico’s mother.”
“Oh, she gave me a son for the favor I granted, but I didn’t take into account how her people would ostracize a child born out of wedlock.” He raised her fingers to his lips. “I’ve had to sit back and watch him being tormented and ridiculed his entire life.”
