Rush pulled off his shirt and kicked off his boots, and then, with practiced ease, slid her dress off of her. It crumpled to the ground around her ankles, and though she would usually have been self-conscious, she now felt nothing less than fabulously confident and gorgeous. What else could she feel when there were two men worshipping her?
Rush’s mouth attacked her nipples again, sucking and nipping, and her hands entwined in his copper locks, tugging at them. Rhett pushed himself closer to her and she could feel his huge erection through his jeans. She didn’t need to see it to know it was much bigger than anything she’d had before, and she was willing to bet that Rush’s was similarly impressive.
Rhett pulled off his shirt as well and then, as if acting of one mind, the men spun her around and pushed her over the armrest of the recliner. Danni propped herself up on her elbows, with Rhett standing in front of her and Rush behind. She stared up at Rhett hungrily, every fiber of her being begging for them to be inside of her already, to release the heat and tension that had been building like a tidal wave the way she knew only they could.
They undid their belt buckles and the sharp noise made goose bumps appear on her skin. Both of the Dean men shucked off their jeans and boxers, and Danni whimpered. Huge was not the word to use. Enormous, maybe?
How can they be so big!?
Danni glanced over her shoulder, her teeth gnawing on her lower lip. She was just about drowning in her own juices. Rush smirked, pulling down her panties and letting them bunch around her ankles as she was served for them on the recliner. He got down on his knees and Danni purred as his warm, long tongue lapped up the length of her slit, starting from her clit and not stopping before her rosenub.
She shuddered violently, her eyes half-closed, begs and pleas rolling off her tongue.
“Please,” she pleaded desperately.
“What do you want?” Rhett asked.
“Both of you,” she admitted, not even surprised by the need in her tone.
“How badly? Do you want both of us? Fucking you at both ends until you can’t take any more?” Rush asked, his words both a taunt and a promise.
“Yes, please!” Danni moaned.
Then, Rhett stepped closer, slapping her cheek with the thick, throbbing head of his cock. She groaned hungrily, the sound turning into a squeal as Rush pressed the tip of his erection against her sopping wet opening.
“Say it,” Rhett growled.
“Please fuck me!” she screamed and all of her desires were fulfilled.
Rhett pushed into her mouth, muffling her words, just as Rush pounded into her pussy. Both of them sunk in mercilessly, skewering her at both ends. Saliva quickly coated Rhett’s cock as he thrust in and out of her mouth, working himself deeper, sometimes cutting off her air completely. It just made it better. Rush was so big that he stretched her slit wide, fitting into her slowly but oh so satisfyingly.
By the time they had both sunk into her, Danni was a shuddering, murmuring mess of tightly wound excitement. Her core throbbed painfully, begging to be pushed over the edge. As if planned, the Dean brothers started plowing into her, hard, both pulling out and plunging back in at the same time. Danni thought she would split apart, but the pain quickly turned into intense pleasure unlike anything she’d ever experienced before.
And how could she have? One puny lion was nothing next to two big, hulking bears who wanted their honey.
Tears streamed down her cheeks, her fingers digging into the upholstery, barely hanging on as she was fucked hard and deep. Rush’s grunts were music to her ears, and she purred happily when Rhett let out a hiss as her tongue slipped over the head of his cock, tasting his precum. Danni loved knowing she could make them whimper just like they made her.
Rush’s fingers dug into her hips as hers gripped the chair. Suddenly, she found herself gasping for breath and feeling a sense of emptiness she didn’t like at all. Both Rush and Rhett had pulled out. In a daze, she felt herself being flipped around, pillows propped under her on the chair and her head lolling over the side of the armrest.
The twins changed places and Rush grinned as she glanced up at him, knowing full well that she must have looked like the hungriest woman in the world, begging for their cocks.
“You want more, baby?” Rush asked, his voice gruff and full of anticipation.
“Yessss,” she managed to say, the word turning into a whine as Rhett bucked into her pussy, filling it completely in one stroke.
Then Rush plunged into her mouth and she thought she could die a happy woman right then. There was no softness to them, and that was how she wanted it. Both rutted into her hard and unyielding, Rush’s cock filling her mouth and throat, giving her a taste of herself. Rush kneaded her tits, and the tightness within her was coming to its tipping point. When Rhett licked his thumb and started making tight circles around her clit, Danni couldn’t take it any more.
With her back arching and a gargled scream dying in her throat, she crested. Her orgasm took her completely, leaving room for little else. Absently, she felt the tightness of her pussy clenching around Rhett’s hard cock and her lips sucking needily on Rush’s. Her world was consumed by her release, the orgasm crashing through her like a promise that had been kept from her all her life.
Danni heard Rush suck in a breath and then thick, hot cum filled her mouth. She swallowed it eagerly, loving the salty taste of it as it went down her throat. Rush pulled out of her mouth and Rhett from her pussy, leaving her still throbbing as she rode the end of her orgasm. Rush stepped aside and Rhett filled her moaning mouth again, slick with her sweet taste.
“That’s it, Danni. Take it all, baby,” Rhett growled as Rush fell on his knees, lapping at Danni’s pussy and making her twitch and flail, yelping.
It was almost too much but just right at the same time. Her lips locked around Rhett’s cock and her tongue teased the hard ridges. With a satisfied hiss, he came into her mouth, long milky strings flying onto her tongue.
Danni didn’t really know how it happened, but when she finally regained some of her faculties, she found herself on her bed, staring up at the ceiling with two naked, exhausted werebears at her side.
“Fuck me…” she muttered, still in disbelief of what had just happened.
“Any time,” Rush echoed, fishing a bout of laughter from Rhett.
Alright, so maybe letting go every once in a while was the best thing she could do. Though Danni got the peculiar feeling that this wasn’t going to end at just fun…
When you’d had two werebears together, how could you settle for anything less ever again?
CHAPTER ELEVEN
Danni
She couldn’t stop grinning. There wasn’t a force in the world that could ruin Daniela Weaver’s day at that point, or at least she couldn’t fathom anything with the kind of strength required to put a dent in her happiness.
She was spinning around the salon like she’d been pushed into overdrive, seemingly doing everything at once and with twice the flare as usual. It really did seem that if you smiled at the world, the world would smile right back at you. Or maybe someone had just cranked the happiness level in Shifter Grove up a couple of notches… Whatever it was, Danni definitely found everything to be just so much better all of a sudden.
It didn’t take a scientist to figure out that it was her sexy pair of werebears that were to blame for it all.
She’d snuck out early in the morning, taking great care to not wake Rush and Rhett, sprawled out on the bed. It took herculean effort to make herself leave their side, but she had customers waiting, and even I she really, really didn’t want to go, she couldn’t leave her clients unhappy.
No strings attached, she thought with a grin, sated and satisfied.
Of course, the more she thought about it, the more she was certain that things couldn’t be left just as simply as that. She’d been struggling with her overwhelming emotions for days, and now, having had both Rush and Rhett at the same time, she saw that she wouldn’t have
to choose, wouldn’t have to pick between adventure and soulful intelligence – she could have them both!
The thought still made her light up like a Christmas ornament. Two sexy as sin werebears, all for her? She would never have imagined that such a thing was possible!
Danni was all smiles when her next customer walked in through the door. Mama Dean looked far from her usual cheerful self. The aging mother bear took a heavy seat in Danni’s chair, seemingly a beaten woman. Even her always-bouncy gray curls seemed to droop lower.
“What are we doing today, Mama Dean? Touching up the curls?”
“Yes, sugar. Touch up the curls. Might as well look good, even if my heart is achin’ so!”
Danni frowned, her lips narrowing as she draped the sheet around Mama Dean. The bear shifter always tended to be a bit on the dramatic side, but Danni had never seen her upset at something. It was unnerving – like watching your own grandmother be unhappy. She just wanted to do anything she could to make Mama Dean happy again – just as she was!
“I’m sure things aren’t so bad,” Danni said, spritzing some product into the gray locks.
“Oh, but it is! I have told you about my baby boys, yes? Well, I think they’re makin’ a mistake now! And it’s so unlike them… Of course, they’re just boys, and trial and error comes with growin’ up, but… Oh, I don’t know. A mother’s heart worries.”
“So tell me what’s going on. Maybe we can figure out a solution together! I’m no bear whisperer, but you don’t get to work as a hairdresser without picking up some great ideas here and there,” Danni offered, fussing with the hair.
Mama Dean gave another long, sorrowful sigh before beginning.
“They came back home because they made a promise to their father that they don’t want to break. But now, I think they’re getting’ into some kind of a mess with some woman. I think she was goin’ to choose one of them, or spirits knows what. Anyway, both my boys have been seein’ the same girl and that wily little thing has been playin’ them. I bet it’s for the money. It doesn’t take much to Google my boys and find out that they’re worth billions.”
Mama Dean huffed and Danni frowned, chewing the inside of her lip. That sounded like a horrible situation to be in and she could certainly understand Mama Dean’s worry for her boys. No mother should have to see her children fight amongst themselves, especially over a woman!
Danni was just glad there was no family drama with Rush and Rhett. But she did find herself wondering what their family would be like – would they welcome her if things got serious? Would they be nice, or judgmental like her own mother? Danni hoped their mother would be like Mama Dean – warm, nurturing and a real spitfire!
“Rush and Rhett Dean, eligible billionbear bachelors, duped by a devil woman! I can see the headlines now!” Mama Dean said woefully.
That stopped Danni dead in her tracks.
Rhett and Rush… Dean? Oh no…
The color drained from her face and she saw a frown reflected on Mama Dean’s features as she glanced at Danni. Quickly, Danni set back to work on the hairdo, trying to hide her surprise.
“I’m sure she didn’t mean to lead them on,” Danni said with a small voice, the words almost breaking in her throat.
“Please! My boys are spittin’ images of each other! Twins! Sure, they look a bit different now, but still so obviously cut from the same honeycomb! It’s not possible that a girl wouldn’t recognize it! No, she has to be up to no good. I can feel it in my bones. Oh, why couldn’t they just go for a nice girl like you, Danni? Why does it always have to be the nasty ones that cling to my baby boys,” Mama Dean lamented on the verge of tears.
Danni felt the same way, close to breaking down in sobs. All the happiness that had been bouncing around inside of her and making her bounce right along with it seemed to be sucked out of her, leaving only guilt and discomfort. She had never meant to hurt anyone. It was supposed to be fun and easy but now she was being shown what it looked like from the other side. She’d been dating both of them at the same time and while they were looking for a bride, she’d just been… having fun?
Mama Dean thought she was the kind of girl Rhett and Rush should get together with, but at the same time she was the very same woman causing Mama Dean all her heartache.
Danni wanted to kick herself.
She finished up with Mama Dean, mostly nodding through the rest of their conversation and trying to engage as little as possible. When the matronly mother bear left, Danni locked the door behind her and slumped against it, sliding down onto the floor with her hands clenched around her.
What have I done?! I didn’t want to hurt anyone… And now I’m breaking Mama Dean’s heart… Oh, Danni, you knew it was too early to go for anyone…
She rested her head against her knees, keeping the sobs back. She was too confused to really think. All she knew was that she couldn’t see the Dean brothers again. Not if it meant hurting someone as badly as she’d been hurt just recently. It became clear as day to her again that fun with no strings attached couldn’t work – someone always got hurt.
***
“I think you broke those two,” Cerise said matter-of-factly, sipping on her latte.
Danni picked at the rhubarb pie listlessly. A little bit of her twinged at Cerise’s words – she didn’t need the confirmation. She knew she’d done wrong. Both in letting her relationships with Rhett and Rush go as far as they had, as well as ending them so abruptly. She’d sent Rhett a message over SassyDate that she couldn’t see him anymore and told Rush as much when he showed up at the salon the next day.
Now, several days had passed and Danni was still feeling no better about the whole thing. She’d hoped that some wave of clarity would wash over her, making her feel good about letting the Dean boys go and not stringing them along anymore, but that satisfaction was nowhere to be found.
“I think I broke me too,” she admitted.
It sounded ridiculous, but that was how she felt. With Rhett and Rush, she’d felt so… whole, so right. Like all the good and bad decisions in her life had been leading up to her meeting them and getting to know them, and now that was all for naught and her future had no direction. It didn’t help that Taylor had been harassing her the entire time on SassyDate, though she was beginning to consider it as nothing more than an annoyance.
At least nothing he said could upset her any further. She was far too angry at herself for breaking her own heart, as well as possibly the Dean brothers’ to care about Taylor and his scummy ways.
“So why don’t you fix it?” Cerise asked in her usual no-nonsense way, stealing a bite of the pie.
“How? Mama Dean made it plenty clear that when I thought we were taking things slow and not forcing anything, Rhett and Rush were still sort of competing for me. I don’t want them to argue, I don’t want them to hurt their mother’s heart. I’m just trouble, it seems.”
Cerise snorted at her words.
“You haven’t even talked to them about it! You know that Rhett found out that I know you and came to ask me if they’d done something wrong? That man was not playing around, and by the piles of flowers you get delivered to the salon every day, I think it’s pretty obvious that Rush isn’t giving up either. You should at least give them a chance to explain, or explain your thinking to them. It’s only right.”
Danni gnawed on her lower lip, setting the dessertspoon down. There were a lot of could haves and should haves going around in her head, but Cerise was right, as always. It was both an endearing and a stupendously annoying quality she possessed.
“Maybe,” she agreed. “But how long could they stick around here for anyway? They both have these huge companies to run. I didn’t even know they came from money. Well, I guess I could have assumed with Rush and that hot air balloon, but I… I don’t know. I’m not that kind of girl. I wouldn’t fit in that kind of world.”
“If they wanted a girl who was a part of that kind of world, they wouldn’t have come looking for her in Id
aho, honey.”
Damn that Cerise. Couldn’t she just agree with Danni’s lopsided reasoning for once and let things be?
“I’ll think about it.”
“Good. Now eat your damn pie. It’s far too good to be left uneaten just because you have some completely unnecessary heartache going on.”
***
It was late when Danni finally got home that night. She’d stayed with Cerise hours after closing, just talking and hashing out her options. She’d tried to fish out some information about Cerise as well, but the woman wasn’t budging. For someone so willing to share her opinions about everybody else’s lives, she was curiously tightlipped about her own. Danni knew she shouldn’t pry too much, but it was a nice change to her own irritating problems.
When she got to the clearing, the hairs on the back of her neck stood up. She immediately felt like she was being watched, like two eyes were fixed on her, weighing and considering her every move.
She started walking faster and then broke into a run, panic welling in her throat, though she knew it was silly. She was in the middle of a forest in Idaho, near just about the safest town in the entire region, filled with shifters who were far too nice for their own good. So what did she have to fear?
But a primal part of her took over and she ran and didn’t stop until she got to her door. Danni fished out the keys and opened her door with shaking hands. She slipped in quickly and a sigh of relief was already on her lips as she was closing the door. But instead, the sigh turned into a scream as the door was slammed open.
Danni froze in place, feeling every bit like a tiny field mouse being hunted for game.
Taylor stood in the doorframe, tall and imposing, his green eyes burning with fury.
“Hey, baby. Missed me?”
CHAPTER TWELVE
Rush
