  Infinitely slowly, she parted her knees until they rested at an open angle, hip-width apart. He saw a tease of pink glint from between the shadowy enclave of her thighs.

  ‘Wider.’ His growl made her shiver, her hands flexing as her breath caught.

  She obeyed, shifting her elegant feet further apart and letting her knees fall to the side until they hit the mattress.

  ‘Good girl,’ he crooned, his eyes zeroing in on the damp crotch of her panties, the hem of her nightdress riding up to her hips from the angle of her legs.

  He heard Nick’s breath catch in his throat behind him.

  He took the two steps needed to stand at the foot of the bed, gazing down at their blonde fairy as she trembled in anticipation. Nick followed him into the room so both their eyes could rake over her with unrestrained lust. It circulated around them in a tornado of longing, desire and yearning, overwhelming enough to steal the breath from their lungs.

  After only a such a short time, Euan could read Kira easily. Right now, though she trembled with uncertainty, the flush in her cheeks, her wide hungry eyes, her jumping pulse told him that she wanted this. She was eager for it. But he was a man who always took precautions. So when he asked his next question, he made sure there was no reprimand in his tone. He wanted her willing, if not always comfortable. ‘You ready for this, sweetheart? Both me and Nick? You understand where this is going?’

  At his words, her gaze shifted from his face down his muscular body. He was clothed in his Kevlar jeans, boots, a snug-fitting crew-neck black t-shirt and thick leather belt. Once she was finished appraising him, she moved to Nick, giving him the same heated evaluation. When her gaze once again locked with Euan’s, it was suffused with fire, so searing he felt burned by its heat.

  She nodded again and bit her lip.

  He couldn’t help the rumble in his chest from the animalistic gratification of knowing she was going to finally be his.

  ‘Take the panties off,’ he commanded.

  ‘Only if you take yours off,’ she replied enticingly. Finally, the little startled kitten was beginning to show her claws.

  Euan’s evil grin widened. ‘Not how the game is played, sweetheart.’

  His dominant desires were raging through him, pulsating through every muscle of his body, vibrating with the need to conquer, devour, consume. He hardened his jaw and looked over his shoulder to Nick, who stood silently—but no less temptingly—at his back.

  ‘Think we might have to give our girl a little lesson on the rules.’ Nick nodded as a savage smile slashed across his face.

  Yeah, Kira really was the kryptonite to Nicky’s demons. Not a trace of the memories that haunted him was visible through his sparking green eyes. She had pulled their relationship back from the brink of destruction. She had mended their rift with the beauty of her smile. She had created a refuge, a true refuge for them both. They were all now ready to move this forward.

  ‘Lie down next to her,’ Euan ordered.

  When Nick complied, meeting Kira’s gaze where a wealth of unspoken communication shifted back and forth between them, he continued. ‘Give Nick your fingers, Kira. Let him taste them.’

  While Kira avidly watched Nick consume her digits with noisy, wet delight, Euan moved, placing both knees on the mattress as he leaned forward. She emitted a gasp when he gently pulled at the bodice of her nightgown to reveal her fucking perfect breasts.

  ‘Christ,’ he breathed, staring at the alabaster skin of her delicate flesh. Her small, pert nibbles were a dusty pink, pulled into tight points from arousal and the onslaught of sensation. Each breast was no more than a handful, like he imagined they would be. They were just enough for his large, rough palm to cup and mould.

  Fuck. How in God’s name was he going to hold back? Those beautiful breasts shuddered with each breath. One of her hands was clawing at the sheets in sensual abandon, the other was sucked, licked and adored by Nick as she squirmed and writhed against the sheets. The hem of her nightgown bunched around her waist, her panties pulled taut over her fragile hip bones. When Euan ordered Nick to cease laving attention on her fingers and discover the abundant beauty of her mouth in a slow kiss, he watched with unfettered hunger as her lips, with glimpses of their dueling tongues, tangled with Nicky’s. It was the most erotic, sensual, fucking beautiful thing he had ever seen in his entire life.

  If he weren’t a humble man, he would roar to the heavens with joy and chauvinistic male triumph.

  Instead, he palmed her breast with one hand and bent down to take that hard, cherry nipple in his warm mouth.

  ‘Euan!’ Kira gasped into the room, breaking her lips from Nick’s as she arched her spine and pushed her head into the pillow.

  He didn’t let up, slowly laving the puckered peak with his tongue, swirling it around the taut flesh. Drawing it into his mouth, he sucked it gently, rhythmically, while grazing it with his teeth.

  It had been a long time since he’d had something so infinitely sweet in his mouth. Her taste, her smell, the sounds she made overwhelmed him.

  Nick had recaptured her lips, and after a brief reminder of her taste, he began a slow descent along her jaw and down her arched neck with his lips.

  Euan slowly moved one hand down her body to her sweet, drenched core. His fingers delicately feathering over the engorged bud under the cloth of her panties. He circled it softly, taking his time to accustom himself to the sensitive nerves that bundled together tightly. Kira cried out when he pressed the pad of his finger against it in an inescapable yet devastatingly pleasurable assault.

  He reluctantly pulled himself up from his rampage on her breast and shifted himself into a sitting position to ease the aching cockstand in his pants. Kira’s eyes were shut tight, her swollen, wet lips pulled into a grimace from the overwhelming sensations.

  He had to remind himself to take this slowly. It had been years since she’d had such physical affection. ‘Nicky, ease back.’

  Nick reluctantly did as he was bid. ‘Fuck me,’ he breathed.

  ‘I can’t, Euan,’ Kira begged, thrashing her head from side to side, her eyes still squeezed shut, even though they’d stopped. ‘It’s too much.’

  He removed his hand from the juncture of her thighs. ‘You can, sweetheart. It’s beautiful pain. It’s heaven on earth. Just a little more and I’ll make it all better.’

  ‘I never thought—’ She choked up.

  ‘Shh … Neither did we,’ he agreed. ‘But we’re going to take each moment as it comes. Enjoy each moment fully, sweetheart, for as long as we can. Yeah?’

  She squeezed her eyes tighter and nodded. ‘Okay.’

  ‘Good girl. Nick, I want you to focus on these.’ Euan pinched Kira’s nipples for effect. ‘Kira, since you wouldn’t do as you’re told, I’m going to take off your panties for you.’

  Before she had a chance to disagree, he moved so he was positioned between her spread and cocked thighs. He heard Nick groan with sheer delight and an equal noisy mewl from Kira as Nicky did as he was told.

  Euan took his time, lightly trailing his fingertips up the delicate pale skin of her inner thighs before he reached her underwear. Through the cloth, the index and middle finger of his dominant hand found her hard, swollen clit again. Gently, he began to massage and manipulate the sensitive bud while Kira gasped, moaned, bucked and writhed under his and Nick’s attentions.

  It wouldn’t take long, with the sensual onslaught from both of them and her lack of attention for years. Even with his own limited experience of a woman’s needs in recent times, Euan knew he could take her to the peak of pleasure in moments. But he didn’t want to do it with his fingers alone. This first time, he wanted to do it with his lips, his tongue, the heat of his mouth. He wanted to have his fingers inside her, slowly massaging the special spot deep within her that would take her orgasm to heights she could never achieve on her own. He wanted to feel her internal muscles clutch at those digits.

  While her attention was thoroughly engrossed in Ni
ck’s onslaught of her tight nipples, Euan hooked his fingers in the edge of her panties and deftly pulled them down her thighs, over her bent knees and off her delicate feet. He could tell she tried to counter his moves, but Nicky held fast.

  Without further preamble, Euan descended, the time for slow introductions gone, his overwhelming desires driving him.

  His first taste of her was ambrosia. He’d forgotten how the heady, intoxicating musk of a woman consumed the senses, devoured the mind. The glorious surge of power as trembling thighs clamped his head in an attempt to both hold and cease his ministrations at once.

  His instincts took over, his tongue licking, laving and lapping at her slippery, honey-drenched core. His lips nibbling, sucking and worrying the delicate tissues. His fingers petting, stroking and penetrating her heated channel.

  Nick must have also upped his game, as Kira began to buck in their combined hold. Euan was forced to grab the firm globes of her ass in a tight grip so he could maintain contact with his mouth. He looked up over Kira’s trembling stomach to see the woman held little mercy for Nick’s disheveled golden locks, brutally pulling them from his scalp in her fists.

  Though he wanted this moment to last forever, he knew the future would give them time to expand their sexual horizons, so he began to take Kira to her peak.

  He put one hand on her lower stomach to hold her hips to the bed, using the other to enter her warm, wet depths. He felt the quivering internal muscles suck him in, flutter around him, entice him to stay for eternity.

  He ignored their siren’s call and curled his fingers in an upward motion. When he found the small section of ridged flesh deep within her, he began to rhythmically stroke it.

  Kira cried out, both their names leaving her lips in agonised wails. On that cue, Euan took her swollen clit between his lips and sucked in time with the strokes of his fingers.

  In a glorious rush of noise and movement, Kira came.

  It was beautiful, potent, fucking incredible.

  Beneath her cries of pleasure, he heard Nick groan. Glancing over her mound brushed with blonde pubic hair, he saw Nick’s hips move against Kira’s upper thigh in a jarring, almost painful thrusting motion.

  It seemed Nicky was overwhelmed by all the sensation as well.

  Euan eased Kira’s return to sanity with gentle licks and soft murmurings. She had been phenomenal. They both had.

  Kira’s knees had fallen to the sides, spreading her widely to Euan’s view. He took a moment to absorb the beauty of her slick state before looking up to see his handiwork.

  Nick was sprawled beside Kira, the front of his briefs stained dark from his spent seed. A content, tired half smile stretched his lips and his eyes were glazed with exhausted lust.

  ‘Perfect,’ Nick breathed as he turned and pulled Kira’s face towards his lips for a final quick peck.

  Kira let herself be maneuvered, her limbs listless and immobile. Her hands still gripping the bedding, her hair a tangled, messy halo, her naked chest heaved as she caught her breath. ‘It was perfect,’ she panted in agreement, a relieved smile easing across her face.

  Euan said nothing, adjusting Kira’s nightgown so it covered her breasts as he pulled the hem down so her core was hidden from view.

  When he began to move the bedding so it would cover both of them for the night, Kira sat up on her elbows and blinked back her docility. ‘Euan?’ Her one word asked a thousand questions.

  ‘Not tonight, sweetheart,’ he answered as he moved from the bed, trying to keep his trembling hands from their notice. ‘Hard as steel for you, the both of you, but I want to keep my mind sharp. You two sleep. I’ll come to bed in a few hours, yeah?’

  Nick and Kira looked at each other with creased brows. ‘You sure, Euan?’ Nick asked, concern etched in his features.

  ‘Yeah,’ he answered as he rose from the bed, adjusting his painful erection. ‘We’ve got a busy day tomorrow, so get your rest tonight.’ He continued to speak to Nick, but turned to meet Kira’s confused gaze. ‘You hold her tight until she sleeps. In the morning, we’ll talk.’

  ‘Okay, Euan,’ Kira replied.

  Nick’s concern was evident. ‘We’ll talk tomorrow.’

  He nodded and moved towards the door.

  ‘Get me if you need to,’ Nick said once more.

  Euan was silent as he slipped into the dark hallway.

  ***

  Euan wrote plans in handwriting that was messy from little use. He catalogued their weapon stockpile and mapped out key advantage points for ambush. He rationed out their food supply and rostered their guard duties. He was fastidious in his schedules and itemisation. His plans gave him the strength needed to ease the anxiety that was beginning to cripple him, to hinder his thoughts and dreams. He now had a direction, procedures and strategies that would see them manage the most alarming of his nightmares. His hands stopped shaking.

  As dawn was breaking through the trees, Euan pulled himself away from his ledger and quietly padded to bed.

  Kira and Nicky were entwined together, their tanned limbs and tousled blonde hair visible with the small night-light she liked to keep alight during the darkest hours. The single LED globe cast a cool white glow, giving Euan the opportunity to reassure himself of their safety one more time as he tiredly pulled off his clothes and climbed into bed with them.

  Part of him was content to leave them to sleep, wrapped in each other’s arms. The other part was a selfish asshole who wanted the two of them entangled with him instead. The heightened anxiety of the last twenty-four hours, plus the sexual release they’d enjoyed together—albeit without his own gratification—had Euan feeling particularly greedy. He wanted to enjoy the warmth of their bodies, the press of their limbs, the tickle of their breath on his skin.

  As the dawn light lengthened outside their underground shelter, Euan quietly maneuvered their limp bodies around his, soothed their confused mumbles, kissed their brows good night and fell into an exhausted sleep, feeling infinitely better knowing he finally had the beginnings of a plan.

  Chapter 24

  It felt like moments later that Euan was woken from his slumber. His limbs were as heavy as lead, his head foggy from lack of sleep.

  The bed covers were absent from his body, the cool air caressing his chest, his arms, his lower stomach.

  His painfully erect cock.

  As he became more aware, he decided to roll over and reach out to find his bedtime companions, as well as the sheets to cover his chilled body, when a warm, wet mouth engulfed the tip of his cock and gently sucked.

  His eyes snapped open and he knifed up onto his elbows to discover not one, but two blonde heads eagerly anticipating the taste of his morning erection.

  ‘Fuck me,’ he breathed to the golden crowns.

  Two sets of sultry eyes turned towards him, one pair an enticing crystal blue, the other a daring, mischievous jade. He swallowed against the stinging poignancy of the three of them finally clashing together without the suffocating darkness of anyone’s past.

  ‘What do you think you’re doing?’ His voice was rough from his lack of sleep, and the thought passed through his hazy mind that he may still be dreaming. However, when he felt Nick tongue the slit in the head of his dick, the fervour of those sensations centred in his sac, heralding an eager, premature orgasm. Euan knew no dream would be so cruel.

  He narrowed his eyes as Nick let the crown of his cock loose from his mouth with a wet pop.

  ‘Thought we’d return the favour from last night,’ Nick informed him with a sly grin.

  ‘Yeah?’ he asked incredulously.

  Nick’s smile turned wicked. He bent his head and circled Euan’s straining member with the slick wetness of his tongue in one slow, torturous stroke.

  ‘Yeah,’ he teased when the ring was complete.

  Euan reached out and snatched a fistful of Nick’s honey-coloured locks in his hand. He relished the delicious spark of lust flaring in Nick’s gaze when he tightened his hold, makin
g his cock bob hungrily at the juncture of his thighs in its nest of dark curls, desperate for the attention Nick promised with his lips.

  Instead, it was Kira who reached out, taking his turgid member in her slender hands, stroking his flesh in tender, soft pulls. Nick was happy to break the connection with Euan to watch.

  ‘Want me to show Kira how you like it, big man?’ Nick asked devilishly, pulling on Euan’s hold for his own gratification.

  Lust was slowly overriding Euan’s cognitive thinking, overwhelmed by their combined assault. It had been a long time since he’d suffered such demanding attention. The look of unrestrained desire in both their heated gazes was enough to render him speechless.

  He leaned back on the bed, giving silent permission, piling the pillows under his head so he could watch Kira’s and Nick’s attentiveness in relaxation.

  He cocked his knees, spreading his legs to give the two more access. Kira was watching Nick in fascination, her breasts loose behind the worn fabric of her nightgown, swaying slightly with each movement of her hand. Her nipples were pulled into tight, enticing points, beckoning Euan to taste them, draw them into his mouth. Her pulse fluttered at her throat, and he wondered how fast he could make it fly; he experimented, using his fingers to squeeze one desperate peak while he devoured the other.

  Kira’s small hand still held his shaft. When she used that grip to control the pulsating flesh for Nick’s focus, his lurid thoughts shot out of his mind like a cannon ball from its iron barrel.

  He hissed as she slowly fed his cock into Nick’s waiting mouth. When Nick closed his lips around the head and sucked, his answering groan vibrated through the small room. He watched as her gaze turned blazing and a sensual shiver quivered through her muscles, her free hand making fists in the sheets at his side.

  Nick drew Euan into his wet mouth until his lips reached Kira’s fist. He sucked in strong, drawing pulls that hollowed out his cheeks, focusing his tongue on the slit.

  Only a few weeks ago, Nick couldn’t hold Euan’s gaze for more than a moment. He would flinch every time Euan touched him, inadvertently or otherwise. Now, his engorged cock was buried deep down his throat and his body rippled with need and desire. Euan squeezed his eyes tight from the relentless burn of relief that seared through every molecule in his body.
