“But that’s not needed if my baby’s father is Chandler.”
“No, and we can check your blood and see if the baby has our genetic makeup.”
“Wow, you guys are way ahead of us,” Sunn said.
“We had to be to save our people. Our scientists have been busy since we arrived on earth. They found many ways for us to adapt to this environment.”
Sunn grinned. “I feel like I’ve gone to sleep and landed in a distant galaxy.”
“I like your spirit. Our people will accept and love you just as they will Todd, especially since he’s one of us. Many of them already know Chandler and respect him immensely for his work.”
Elle looked around the room. “Gentlemen, I’m going for a walk with Sunn. We’ll see you later. Do you mind, Sunn?”
“Not at all.” She stood and walked out with Elle.
At first they didn’t talk. Sunn realized they were headed in the direction of the gazebo. Once they arrived, Elle suggested they sit in one of the comfortable lounge chairs.
“It’s a lovely area,” Elle said. “And easily changed around for the weddings. Would you like to have the threesome wedding here? We haven’t known about Todd being one of us until recently, but if you all would like to have our traditional wedding, I’d be glad to do the ceremony.”
“As you know, I was in Bliss’s ceremony. I thought it was beautiful and sacred. I’d love to have the wedding in this spot if Todd and Chandler agree.”
“We’ll talk with them. I’m sure they’ll be happy about it since you are. But tell me, did anything I told you make you question whether you still want to marry Todd and Chandler?
“No. I went upstairs and talked with Bliss. We’re best friends. I wanted to know how she felt before and after the marriage. She’s very happy and settled any little qualms I had. Not that I could have walked away.”
Sunn looked down at her hands. “I tried to deny my feelings for them. They’d hurt me when they both left and went back to Houston with no explanation. I sort of understood Chandler. It hadn’t been long since he’d divorced. He wasn’t ready to make another commitment, but I wondered about Todd.”
“Do you understand why he left?”
“Yes, he’s been afraid to love because of what happened to him at three.” She looked up at Elle. “He may still need more reassurance than Chandler.”
Elle smiled. “You know your future husbands well. I think you’re right about Todd, but I don’t think it will take him long to settle in and trust the relationship.” She stood. “I could sit out here all day, but your men will be anxious to hear what you have to say.”
“Knowing Todd he’ll be here any minute to check on me.” Sunn laughed. “But I don’t mind. They risked their lives to rescue me. What more evidence could a woman need to know she’s loved?”
On the way back, Sunn told Elle about beating on Todd when he came through the door. “I was so upset all I saw was another kidnapper. It took a while before his words got through to me and I really looked at him.”
Elle laughed heartily. “I haven’t heard anything so funny and sweet in a long time. Our men are extremely strong. He had the ability to tackle you and hold you down. But I’m sure he was afraid of hurting you. He’ll get more confident of his strength and how to adjust it quickly to the situation.”
Todd and Chandler met them on the path to the house. “We were getting worried,” Todd said.
“See what I mean?” Sunn said to Elle.
“Get used to it. Our men are protective and I suspect Chandler will be the same.”
“We can’t wait any longer,” Chandler said. “Will you still marry us?”
Elle walked around them. “I’ll see you in the house.”
“Of course. Did you think a story about earthlings and people from another planet would let you get out of your proposal?”
Chandler picked her up and swung her around. “You’ve made me the happiest man in the world.” He put her down and Todd hugged her. “We’re going ring hunting this afternoon.”
“And tomorrow morning you and I are going to New York so my parents can meet you.”
“What if they don’t like me?”
“All that counts is that I love you. It’ll be their loss if they don’t like or accept you.” He put his face close to hers. “Will it upset you? My family can be a bit trying at times, but I wanted them to meet you and maybe come to our wedding.”
“Can they come to the traditional ceremony here at the gazebo?”
“Oh, no, It’ll take a long time for my Mom and Dad to accept a threesome wedding, if ever. But Todd and I thought I’d marry you legally in the eyes of the law. And although the second wedding isn’t seen as official by the courts, it is to the people that count.”
Sunn glanced at Todd. “Will you be all right with my marrying Chandler officially? Then the next day the three of us will be married by Elle in your people’s traditional wedding. She said she’d perform the ceremony at the gazebo.”
“Nanna talked about the threesome weddings when we weren’t working on other things. From what she described it’s sacred and seen as a permanent binding of our hearts. So yes, I’m fine with those plans.”
Later that day, they found the perfect set of rings in a small jewelry shop on Main Street. Sunn tried them on.
“I love them and they fit.”
“Then let’s go home and celebrate. I’ll cook steaks on the grill,” Todd said.
Once back at Todd’s ranch, both of her men got on their knees and proposed for the final time. With tears in her eyes, Sunn said yes. Todd slid the diamond engagement ring on her finger. Afterward he pulled out the hairpins holding her hair up and raked his hands through the strands.
“The diamond is almost, but not quite as beautiful as your silvery-blonde hair.” He kissed her, and then Chandler turned her toward him and did the same.
“You two have fun. I’ve got to call and talk with my parents. Then I’ll make arrangements for us to fly to see them.”
Sunn put out her hand. “Don’t do this unless you really want to.”
He kissed the tip of her nose. “Quit worrying. I can handle this. I do want to call them.”
Todd threw her over his shoulder. “Come on, woman. It’s been hours since I made love to you.”
He threw Sunn on the big bed and she bounced on the soft mattress. Todd threw his clothes left and right before joining her.
“I won’t be able to enjoy this until I know Chandler’s parents haven’t upset him.”
“Chandler is a strong man. He’ll be fine. And I love challenges. I’m certain I can make you enjoy our lovemaking.”
“Really?”
“Without a doubt.”
Chapter Eighteen
Chandler walked out on the porch. He leaned against one of the pillars and stared up at the starry sky. When he dialed his parents, he’d be pulled into their world. Since his father was retired, he hoped to catch them both at home. He punched in their number.
It rang three times before the maid answered. “This is the Larsson residence. May I help you?”
“Hi, Edna. Are my parents there?”
“I’ll put your call through to them, Mr. Chandler.”
“When are you going to call me Chandler like I’ve asked?”
Edna hesitated. “It wouldn’t be proper.”
“Of course it would. You practically raised my siblings and me.”
“Your mother would not approve. They’re in the library. I’ll switch the call.”
Chandler’s anger rose at his mother’s behavior toward the woman who’d worked for her over twenty years. He pushed the anger down to deal with at another time. Mom wouldn’t change and he wanted to be calm when they talked.
The phone rang several times before his father answered. “Hello.”
“Hi Dad, how are you liking retirement?”
“I miss the work, but I am golfing every day.”
“I called to tell you and mot
her about some changes I’ve made in my life.”
“I’d better put this on speakerphone so you don’t have to tell your story twice. I hope you’ve decided to move back here. I’d help you get established.”
“I’m not moving to New York. I’m pretty much established anywhere I go. I’m known for my specialty. That’s why I feel comfortable moving to my ranch and working two days in Houston and the rest of the week I’ll see the patients who are willing to come to Saddlespurs.”
“What? Who the hell would go to that godforsaken place? I got out of there as soon as I got my surgery position in Houston. When there was an opportunity to work at a well-known New York hospital, I took it and haven’t been sorry.” His dad hollered through the phone. “Have you lost your mind?”
“No, Dad. I’m doing what will make me happy.” Chandler’s stomach twisted into a knot. “I’ve also met a woman I plan to marry.”
“I suppose she’s the one who talked you into this crazy idea.”
“Actually, she encouraged me not to move, until she fell in love with me. I’d like to bring her to meet you and Mom, tomorrow.”
His mother’s soft voice came across the phone. “Darling, why don’t you come home for a visit by yourself? I have several lovely ladies to introduce to you. They come from fine families and any one of them would be just the right wife for a doctor climbing the ladder to success.”
“Yeah, that last one worked real well.”
“Don’t speak sarcastically to your mother,” his father snapped.
“Sorry, Mom and Dad, but I don’t want a social life like you have. I want to live quietly on my ranch and enjoy my wife and any family we may have.”
“Hmmm,” his mother spoke up. “We’d better meet this woman. What does she do for a living, help out at the local feed store?”
“She’s a lawyer, Mom.”
“You know how I feel about lawyers,” his dad added.
“She does wills and other legal forms for people and occasionally goes to court for them.”
“When will you arrive?” his mother asked.
“I’ll make reservations when I hang up, but promise you’ll be nice to her.”
“Whenever have I not been? We will be on our best behavior.” His mother’s very proper voice made Chandler think twice about taking Sunn to see them. They might change her mind. No, if they did then she didn’t love him the way he wanted to be loved. And sooner or later, she’d have to meet them.
“I’ll call back with the time of our arrival.”
“We’ll have George meet you.”
“Thanks, Mom. I’ll be good to see George.” He was their combination butler and chauffeur. Chandler had missed George when he visited several years ago. George and his wife, Edna, had been on vacation.
“Well, I guess we’ll see you soon,” his mother said.
Chandler said good-bye and clicked off his phone. He wanted to talk with Sunn about this visit before making the reservations.
Todd and Sunn were in the shower when he got to the bedroom. He sat in a chair by the fireplace. The night was cool and a small fire burned, sending sparks up the chimney and casting a golden glow in the room.
Sunn walked out with a towel wrapped around her. “You’re here. Come to bed. I’ll warm you.” She stepped behind him, hugged him, and kissed his neck. “You look worried. What’s wrong?”
“Sit on my lap. I need to talk with you.”
Todd came into the bedroom. “Are you two going to play?”
“Not yet.” Chandler glanced across at his friend. “I need to talk with her about my family.”
“It didn’t go well.”
“Not really.”
“I’m going to cook our dinner. You two take all the time you need.” Todd left the room.
Sunn went around the chair and sat on Chandler’s lap. “What happened on the phone?”
“I don’t remember if I told you, but my parents more or less chose my first wife. They think I need the right social wife to help me succeed.”
“Don’t they know you’ve achieved acknowledgment as the best in your field?”
“One of the best,” he corrected her.
“From what I’ve been told, you are the best. And I doubt Lann’s people would think so highly of you unless I’m right.” She ran her hand along the edge of his face.
“Thanks for your belief in me. But no matter how many times I tell my parents, especially my father, what you just said, he’s determined I can do better.
“We don’t have to go see them tomorrow or any other day. They’ll have on their most proper affect and be polite and cool. My dad will take me into his office and try to convince me to stay full-time in Houston or to come home to practice.”
“Maybe they’re right. If your practice doesn’t build up here, you may be a lot less busy.”
Chandler put his face close to hers. “Honey, I’m confident I’ll be as busy as I want to be. I have money saved, and Todd and I will be raising cattle and horses. I’m not worried about making a living. My concern is how they will treat you.”
“But you’d like me to meet them?”
He hugged her tighter “I’d like my brother and sisters to meet you, and I’d hope my parents will accept you into the family. If they don’t, so be it. I love you and that’s what’s important. But could they make you question whether you want to marry me?”
“Never. Once I admitted how I felt about you and Todd, there was no going back. I love you both, fiercely.”
He felt the tension in his body ease. “Fiercely? I like that description. It reassures me you’ll fight for us if the going gets tough with my parents.”
“How long do you want to stay?”
“We’ll fly there tomorrow and stay the night and the next day, then we’ll fly back the morning after. Is that all right?”
* * * *
Hurt glimmered deep in his blue eyes. Sunn hugged his neck and kissed him all over his face. “I love you, forever, for better or worse, in good times or bad. Even though we haven’t said our vows yet”—she brushed her fingers across his lips—”the words are indelibly written in my heart.”
Chandler’s face widened into a grin, and he kissed her fingers. “I don’t know how I got so lucky to find you and for you to love me. But I’ll be thankful for the rest of my life.”
“You say that now. We’ll see how you feel after the first twenty-five years.” She grinned at him.
“Straddle my legs,” Chandler said. Sunn dropped her towel and did as he said.
“Your beauty takes my breath away. I love your long, silky hair falling across your shoulders to your luscious breasts.”
“I’d like to admire your body,” Sunn said.
He stood her by his side and removed his clothes. Then he sat down and she got astride him.
“That’s much better,” Sunn said. She leaned forward and nipped his chiseled chin.
His warms hands cupped her breasts, and the scorching desire in his blue eyes had her nipples peaked tight against his palms.
Sunn’s heart throbbed in her chest. She kissed his face as his fingers caressed her breasts. In her core, the desire for him, which never went completely out, flared into a roaring fire sending sparks of heat racing in her veins.
She was amazed at how quickly her body responded to him and Todd. His hands swept down her midriff. When she rose off of him slightly, he slipped two fingers into her wet pussy.
“You’re ready for me.”
“It’s embarrassing to admit, but I think you and Todd have made me a sex fanatic.”
Chandler burst out in laughter. “I doubt it, but as long as it’s only for me and Todd, I’ll like it.”
He leaned forward and sucked on her breast. When he felt her pussy walls clamp on his fingers, he moved his hard cock into position and thrust inside her.
She threw her head back and tightened her pussy walls around his dick.
“Your pussy is hot, tight, and wet. Exquisit
e pleasure hit every cell in my body.”
His cock pulsed against Sunn’s sensitive pussy, arousing her passion to a higher level. When his fingers pinched her peaked nipples, her pulse raced.
Her senses were attuned to him, his fresh, sensual scent, the rasp of his beard against her skin, the warmth of his mouth, and the hunger for her reflected in his darkened eyes. It gave her a sense of strength and comfort.
Sunn moved up and down in a slow, seductive rhythm. Chandler’s hands tightened on her waist and took control. He raised her hips faster. Her pussy clenched onto his cock with each inward stroke.
“Oh, oh,” she moaned as her pussy throbbed and rippled around his large cock. Her head went back and when he sucked on her breast, she split into a million particles of delight.
He pounded into her harder and faster until his cock spasmodically beat against her pussy walls. Her orgasm went on and on as they held tight and let themselves go.
Sunn managed to get off his lap. Chandler carried her to bed and curved his body against her backside.
“You two made enough noise,” Todd said. He peeked in the room. “I heard you when I walked down the hall. Dinner’s ready. After our meal settles, we’ll go to bed and to sleep.” He grinned. “Tomorrow will be a busy day.”
Dinner was good and there’d been plenty of talking and laughing. Later, Sunn got ready for bed. She had started to fall asleep when she heard Todd speak.
“Don’t let your parents change her mind,” Todd said in a low voice.
“I don’t think they can, but if she gets upset, we’ll leave.”
“Maybe I should go along, and we’ll tell them about our threesome.”
“I may get annoyed with my parents, but I don’t want to give them a heart attack. Threesome marriages are one of the many things my stepmother disapproved of in Saddlespurs. When we did visit my grandparents, she couldn’t get away fast enough. The threesome marriage will be our secret for now.”
“It’ll come out sooner or later.”
“I vote for later.”
“Coward.” But Todd chuckled.
“Goodnight, Todd.”
“A woman can’t sleep with all these talkative men around her. Hush.”
