“What took you both so long?” Stephen pushed off the side of his car and walked toward us.

“He has blue balls,” I teased and wrapped my arms around Stephen’s neck. “Hi.”

I could tell he was trying not to laugh at my comment. “And you didn’t take care of it?”

“See, he wouldn’t have been mad,” Tyler said and wandered around the front yard with Lucky so she could do her business. “You should never leave a man hanging.”

“What about a woman?” I didn’t let Stephen go. His body felt so good against mine. “I’m sorry,” I finally said and pushed my body closer.

“I missed you,” he admitted.

“How is this possible? We all don’t know each other that well yet.” I continued to give him light kisses on his mouth, nose, and cheeks.

“You just know.” Tyler stepped up beside us. Stephen and I fisted our hands in his shirt and pulled him closer. “I definitely know what I want.” He smiled and leaned in to kiss us both. “Now can we go inside before the whole neighborhood starts to enjoy the show?”

Stephen helped carry Sammy’s carrier inside while I grabbed my duffle bag. It felt natural being with them both. I thought kissing one man while the other was in the area would be awkward. Instead, it made me excited. Plus, I knew they both were aroused every time PDA happened.

“What’s for dinner?” I asked as I stepped inside.

“You,” Tyler said from behind me.

I turned on my heel. “What?”

“It’s time to go upstairs.”

Stephen was leaning against the banister with his arms crossed. “What if I’m hungry?” I glanced between them both.

“It will have to wait.” Stephen bent to free Sammy of the cage. “They can explore down here.”

Tyler grabbed my duffle bag and dropped it to the floor. “We can explore you upstairs.”

“Oh.” I was finding it difficult to breathe. “You don’t get to bark all the orders, though.” Both men stopped advancing toward me.

“What do you want, Zoe?” Tyler said, running his hand through his hair.

“Take off Stephen’s shirt.”

He stood there for a moment and then turned and started to undo each button. When Tyler released the last button, he moved his hands lower to remove the belt on Stephen’s jeans.

“I never said to touch his jeans.” I sat down on the bottom step and enjoyed the sight before me. “Stephen, remove Tyler’s shirt.”

Nobody said a word for several minutes as Stephen did what he was ordered.

“Now your turn, Zoe,” Stephen said and stood in between my legs.

I rubbed my hands up his thighs and cupped his erection. The vision of two men inside me at once ran through my mind. Without thinking I quickly undid Stephen’s belt, the top button of his jeans, and I slowly slid down the zipper. Right before I reached in to grab what I was craving, Tyler sat down beside me.

“Do it, Zo,” Tyler insisted and rested his hand on my leg.

I looked up at Stephen and noticed his chest moving up and down at a fast pace. Finally, I pulled out what I wanted. His erection was gorgeous and, fuck me, he was huge. I ran my hand up and down the length of him. Then without warning, I leaned in and took him into my mouth. I moaned at the contact and felt him react from the vibration.

“Fuck, Zo,” Stephen said and moved his body back and forth as he was moving in and out of my mouth.

Tyler surprised me. “Are you going to share?” I released him and watched as Tyler enjoyed all of Stephen. I had never experienced this before and never expected it to make me feel the way it did. I slid my hand down to my core, noticing my body was on the verge of a release. Then Tyler stopped and looked over. “You can’t come yet, Zoe.” He dropped that bombshell and then resumed pleasuring Stephen.

“You’re evil.” I reached over and forced Tyler to move his legs apart. “I want more.”

He released Stephen and softly chuckled. “We have all weekend.”

“I’m going to need it.” Before I stood up, I took Stephen in my mouth one more time.

“I’m not going to be able to hold on much longer.” I could feel Stephen pulsating. “Zoe, you may want to”—then he cried out both our names—“or not.”

I wiped my mouth and stood up. “Always not.” I winked and turned to head upstairs. “My turn.”

“We’ve created a monster,” Stephen said, pinching my ass as I ran up the stairs.

“Please tell me you have lube and condoms?” Stephen said as we stepped into the bedroom.

Tyler walked over to the nightstand and held them both up. “More than enough.”

Instead of Tyler demanding I take my clothes off, I just started to strip down. As I dropped the last of my clothes in a small pile around my feet, I lifted up and glanced at both men. “What?”

“Are you running a race?” Tyler took a few steps closer, advancing on me.

“They were in the way.” I reached forward and tugged on the waistband of his jeans. “Like these. In the way.”

“What are you going to do about that?” Ty brushed his hands down my arms and slid them down my lower back. “Should we set some safe words or ground rules?” He slid his hands farther down over my ass. “Or are there no rules for you and sex, Zoe?”

I knew what he meant. Was I okay with double penetration? Or could I handle someone entering from behind. I wasn’t proud of my past, but I was okay with who I was today. My past was just that: my past. “Ty, I’m pretty well versed in the world of sex.”

He stepped back slightly. “I don’t want to upset you or make you feel uncomfortable.”

“We both have done this before, Zoe.” Stephen reached for my hand and squeezed it lightly. “Not together but I have a past.”

They both seemed concerned, which was throwing me off. I walked over to the bed and sat down. “Sit,” I demanded and patted the bed on either side of me. “Truth time. I have never been with two men, and most definitely not at the same time.” I noticed Tyler wanted to say something, so I raised my hand for him to wait. “I have been with two people at the same time, a man and a woman. My life is not all butterflies and rainbows. If you’re asking if I have had anal sex. Then the answer is yes, and I’m totally okay with it. Oh, and yes, my body is about to revolt against me if you both don’t touch me soon.” Both men chuckled at my words but never made a motion to move. I was tired of waiting, so I lifted my body and moved to the center of the bed. “You think I’m joking don’t you?” Just to get the message across, I lay back against the comforter and inched my hands down over my belly. “I can take care of this on my own.”

It was hilarious how quickly they both leapt up and grabbed my hands to pull them away. “What’re you doing?” Stephen seemed shocked by my openness.

“What you both are failing to do.”

“Zo.” Tyler lay down beside me, brought his elbow up, and rested his head in his hand. “I don’t want to share my past. It’s dark, lonely, and sad, quite honestly. What I do want to say…” He took his free hand and moved a lock of my hair behind my ear. “There is something about you. I wish I could explain it, but it would sound cheesy as fuck.”

Stephen moved up behind me and rested his arm over my side. He splayed his hand out on my belly, causing goosebumps to form on every part of my skin. “We like cheesy,” Stephen teased.

I placed my hand over his. “We do.” Tyler’s body fell forward and his face was smashed into the comforter. He mumbled something, but I couldn’t understand what he was saying. “Give us cheesy, Ty.”

He lifted up and let out a deep sigh. “I made Julian assign you to me.” I never expected him to admit those words. “From the moment you stepped foot in the gym, I knew I needed to be your trainer.” He rolled his eyes and paused for a moment. “There was something about you. Something familiar.”

“You could see all that by me just walking through the door?”

“You seemed secretive, yet, you were willing to show a certain side of you in the ring.” He placed his hand on top of mine that was still sitting over Stephen’s hand. “Do your fans really know you, Zo? Like the real you?”

“Why does that matter?” Then it clicked. “Your fans don’t know you.”

He nodded at my words. “Yeah, and I don’t know if I want them to know my personal life.”

“Sometimes we don’t get to choose,” I said and reached my hand forward to cup the side of his face. “Sometimes the media just goes into a frenzy and blows our life out of proportion.”

“Yeah, you’re right.”

“Tyler,” I whispered. “Is this why you haven’t agreed to an AFC fight in months?”

He just stared at me for the longest time. When he spoke, it was low and sad. “Yeah. It is.”

My heart ached for him. He had this secret he held dear. I sucked at secrets. My mom used to tease me for how bad I was at keeping a secret. I couldn’t imagine holding this special part of my soul inside for years. “What can I do?”

He smiled. “You did it already.”

“I did?”

“You gave us a chance.” I knew he meant both him and Stephen.

“How can we make this easier? I want to help you with finally telling your brothers. Your family.”

He sat up so fast. “No. Please don’t.”

I sat up with him and reached for his hands. “You saw my secrets when I walked into the gym. The difference between us—I never held mine inside.” I placed my hand over his heart. “This is going to continue to feel lost and empty if you don’t finally set it free.” I crossed my legs in front of me and grabbed a pillow to place over my legs. “I never planned to care for two men.” I reached back and grabbed Stephen’s hand. “The other night I called my mom and told her I had feelings for two men. Do you know what she said?”

Tyler seemed curious. “You’re insane.”

“No.” I swatted at his arm. “She said you’ve always known what your heart wants. If they make you happy, then I’m happy.”

“Was she drinking too much wine when you called?”

“Possibly,” I teased. “Ty, your family loves you for who you are inside.” My mind reeled back to Brooks and Charlie’s wedding day. The Moore family was tight. They opened their home and offered their love to all of us that day. “Your parents”—I paused, trying to think of the right words—“they blew me away.” I glanced back at Stephen. “They would love you. I know it.”

“Well this went off topic.” Tyler cleared his throat. I could see he was feeling uncomfortable.

“You are worried about me having sex with two men. Falling for two men. Giving my heart to two men. Guess what, Ty?” I placed my hand on his knee. “I know what I want. I want you both.” Tyler and Stephen at the same time reached in and grabbed my hands. “So okay, we haven’t known each other that long. We will know each other pretty well after tonight.” I brought their hands to my lips and kissed them tenderly. “After tonight you have to change, Ty. I want to help you share all of you to your family.”

“Just give me time. Please.” He cupped his hand behind my neck and pulled me forward. “Maybe that’s why the dance happened the other night. I needed you in my life.”

“You think so?” I brushed my nose back and forth against his. “Pinky swear we discuss this topic again and soon?”

“I pinky swear.” Tyler lifted his pinky for me to take.

“Feel better?” I asked. Tyler’s words made me sad.

“Much.” He smiled and glanced over my shoulder.

The look he gave Stephen told me everything I needed to know. Which made me want them even more. The fear of caring for two people at once was starting to fade. In its place was excitement. I was looking forward to the unknown with them both.
