“I didn’t say that,” Danni said. “But it doesn’t matter. You said you have an important meeting in San Diego. Even if you didn’t, I wouldn’t want to influence you either way.”

“You don’t have to say that just to appease me, you know,” Blake said. “What I said earlier . . .” He swirled his wine in his glass. “Well, I was being an asshole. I never should have accused you of what I did. I’m sorry.”

She stared at him in shock. In her experience, rich, powerful men like him didn’t apologize.

For anything.

“Thank you. I . . . was a bit of a jerk myself,” she conceded. “I’m sorry, too.”

Evan laughed, his fingers stroking his close-cropped beard. “You are a sorry pair. How about we put on a movie and enjoy the rest of the evening?”

“I’m game,” she said.

“But first I’d like to know,” Blake said, “are you going to the event?”

“Unfortunately, yes. Mom and Jerrold want me to go. They’re quite insistent. If it was just Jerrold, I’d ignore him, but . . .” She shrugged. “It’s really important to Mom.”

Blake took her hand and raised it to his mouth, then kissed it. The feel of his lips on her skin, brushing lightly, sent quivers along her spine.

“What if we could arrange for one of us to go with you? As your date?” Blake asked.

She smiled. “One of you? And break up such a great set? I don’t think so.”

It wasn’t that she didn’t want them to go. But Mom was hoping she’d meet a man there. Some rich, eligible bachelor who would lift her from her sad, lonely life. Ugh.

Having one of these very eligible men on her arm would make the evening more bearable. There’s no way Mom would try to thrust her on other unsuspecting men when she was with Evan or Blake. Jerrold wouldn’t let her. If he thought she was dating either of these men, he’d be over the moon.

But she wasn’t dating them. So why complicate things?

“I think she might be embarrassed being seen with us,” Blake said.

Evan laughed. “Or maybe she really wants both of us to come. That would really shock her stepfather.”

She couldn’t help herself. “It’s true that if one of you comes then I’d like the other to come, too.”

Oh, God, she couldn’t believe she’d said something so wicked and suggestive. When their gazes darted to hers, a little wide-eyed, she simply blinked innocently.

“So what movie do we want to watch?” she asked.

* * *

Two hours later, at the end of the romantic comedy they’d let her choose, the closing credits scrolled up the screen of the huge, high-def TV. Over the course of the movie, she’d relaxed and enjoyed the feel of their warm, masculine bodies so close to hers. That warmth started to heat up her insides, making her long to be closer. A lot closer.

As if sensing her mood, they’d eased in a little and she’d found herself snuggled between them. And loving it.

Now she was quite cozy between them, her head leaning against Evan’s shoulder, Blake’s arm curled around her waist.

The credits finally ended and Blake let out a sigh.

“I don’t even want to move,” Blake said, his arm tightening around her.

A slow burn had been building inside her and she longed for exactly what she’d turned down in the pool earlier. The chance to experience an exciting, illicit sexual escapade with both of them.

Especially with these two men, who were so warm and understanding.

She drew in a slow breath, knowing she couldn’t just let this opportunity slip away.

“I know how you feel,” she said, “but there is one thing that could motivate me to get up.”

“And what’s that?” Blake asked.

“A dip in the pool. I think the idea of swimming in the dark is”—she grinned—“sexy.”

A slow smile spread across Blake’s face. “I’m game.”

Evan laughed. “Count me in.”

Danni stood up and walked toward the patio doors, her stomach fluttering. The men followed close behind. She stepped onto the dark deck, the only light a soft wash of moonlight on the wood. Evan turned on a switch and the pool lit up a deep sapphire blue.

“Ohhh. It’s beautiful,” she said.

As she walked toward it, she realized the color was slowly shifting through jewel tones.

“I put it on a subtle setting,” Evan said. “I hope you still consider it dark and sexy.”

She turned around and smiled, continuing to walk backward.

“Does this answer your question?” She unbuttoned her shirt, letting it fall off one shoulder seductively as she continued unfastening it. She let it slip to the ground and unfastened her shorts. They dropped to the deck, and she left them behind as she continued moving.

She turned, and with a soft laugh, ran in a slow, long-legged stride to the pool’s edge, then dove in. The water was perfect. Warm and welcoming. She broke the surface and turned around to see Blake diving into the pool as Evan tossed his jeans aside, then dove in after him.

She swam to the shallow end of the pool, the two men right behind her.

Oh, God, she longed to feel their hands on her.

As soon as she felt the bottom against her feet, she turned around. They had caught up to her and were standing watching her. Waiting for some cue from her, she realized. Because they wouldn’t want her to feel pressured into anything.

They were so sensitive. So thoughtful of her feelings.

She drew in a deep breath, overwhelmed by her need for them. She stepped to Evan, the large lion tattoo on his chest attracting her to him, and slid her arms around his waist, finding his lips. Their mouths merged in a delicate, surprisingly tender kiss. The feel of his raspy beard on her face was exciting. He wrapped his arms around her and held her close, his large, solid body an anchor she needed with the feelings spinning through her.

Feelings that swelled through her with an unexpected poignancy.

She wanted to be with these men. To give herself to them completely.

She stepped back and gazed from one to the other. Delight sparked through her at the thought she’d soon be experiencing their intimate touches.

She smiled and released the hook on her bikini top, then peeled it away.

Blake stepped closer, his eyes darkening to a deep navy as he gazed at her naked breasts in awe.

“God, you’re beautiful.” The low rumble of his voice sent shivers through her.

Blake stepped close and stroked her shoulders, then down her chest. When his big hands cupped her breasts, the nipples thrusting deep into his palms, she shuddered with need. Evan moved behind her and slid his arms around her waist, drawing her back against him. His cock was hard and swollen. He tucked his hands under her breasts and lifted.

Blake leaned in and took one hard nipple in his mouth. She exhaled sharply, thrusting her breast farther into his mouth. Evan’s thumb stroked her other nipple and the dual stimulation had her insides melting.

While still suckling her nipple, Blake drew her bikini bottoms down her thighs. She lifted her legs so he could slip them off. Then he grabbed her calves and wrapped her legs around his waist. His cock, nestled into her private flesh, was even thicker than Evan’s. She almost whimpered at the feel of his rock-hard shaft—with only the thin fabric of his boxers between them—pushing hard against her.

Evan released her as Blake lifted her onto the side of the pool. As the water dripped down her totally naked body, she felt strange sitting there exposed like this in front of them. But the glittering appreciation in their eyes drove away her anxiety. They both leaned in close. The feel of their mouths covering her nipples was intense.

Then they began to suckle.

Her fingers glided through their hair, pulling them closer to her. At the feel of Evan’s raspy beard against her skin, tingles shot through her. Blake’s longer, wavy hair coiled around her fingers as she held him close. Then he sucked deeply and she moaned.

Evan slipped from her nipple and kissed downward. Her legs opened in anticipation. His lips glided over the neatly trimmed triangle of curls above her folds. He leaned back and gazed at her, a smile on his face. Then he ran his finger over her slick flesh.

“You’re wet for us,” Evan said with a broad smile.

She nodded, her gaze locked on his. He leaned forward and licked her. Her eyelids fell closed at the feel of his tongue rasping over her. Then burrowing into her, driving the excitement up even higher.

Blake moved to suckle her other nipple, triggering a new surge of pleasure. His fingertips glided over her abandoned nipple, teasing and stroking it.

Evan’s tongue found her clit.

“Oh, yes,” she moaned.

Evan licked and cajoled. She sucked in air as pleasure spiraled through her.

“Let me taste,” Blake said.

Evan shifted out of the way and Blake stepped between her legs, his gaze burning over her. Then he licked her.

“God, your pussy is delightful,” he murmured, then dove in again.

She arched against him at the feel of his tongue pulsing into her opening. He lifted her legs over his shoulders and pushed in deeper still. His tongue wiggled inside her, then glided along her slit, ending on her sensitive bud. He licked and suckled her clit.

“Oh, God, that feels so good.” Her voice trembled.

As he continued to tease her with his tongue, he dragged a finger along her slickness. Her eyes widened as a big finger slid inside her.

“Mmm, yes.”

Evan slid a finger into her, too, and stroked her passage. She clamped her internal muscles around them, squeezing their fingers together. Blake chuckled and the two of them moved in unison, thrusting inside her.

“Ohhhh, God.” Quivers danced along her body and she lay back on the deck, giving herself over to the erotic sensations.

Pleasure coiled inside her and she knew she was getting close.

Their fingers moved faster. Blake’s mouth moved away, to her groan of disappointment, but Evan took over. His hot mouth covered her clit and he teased it mercilessly.

A third finger slipped inside her—she didn’t know whose—and Evan suckled hard.

She felt her hold on reality crumble away. All that was real to her was the hot, raging need surging through her body and the feel of the two men filling that need.

She gasped as an orgasm blossomed inside her, expanding outward until it consumed her whole world. Ecstasy shimmered through her, then she floated on a sea of pure bliss.

Finally, she settled back to earth on a deep sigh.

She opened her eyes to see their two faces smiling down at her. She held out her hand with a smile and Evan took it and drew her back to a sitting position.

“Thank you,” she said, her voice deep and throaty.

“Our pleasure,” Evan said, then he kissed the back of her hand, his whiskers erotically abrasive against her skin.

She slipped back into the water and grinned.

“Speaking of your pleasure, I think you should let me do something for the two of you now.”

“What do you have in mind?” Blake asked, his eyebrow raised.

She patted the side of the pool. “Well, why don’t you two sit right up here and I’ll show you?”

Evan immediately shed his boxers and then pushed himself up and onto the side, his legs hanging in the water. She stared at his cock. It was hard and ready.

Blake surged into position beside him, also having discarded his boxers. His cock twitched.

She laughed and wrapped a hand around each of them.

Evan was thick and meaty. Her fingers just barely fit around him. Blake was thinner, but oh, so long. She easily held him in her hand, but wondered if his entire length would fit inside her.

She stroked both of them at the same time, in awe at having two huge cocks in her hands at once. She couldn’t believe she was being so bold, but why not? They were hot and sexy. And they wanted her.

Locking her gaze on Blake’s deep blue eyes, she leaned down and pressed her lips to his tip. Heat flared in his eyes, exciting her. She opened around him, taking his whole cockhead into her mouth. She ran her tongue over him, then around in circles, spiraling downward until she glided the tip of her tongue around the underside of the corona.

His groan of appreciation encouraged her. She glided down his long cock, taking it halfway, then slid back, squeezing his hot, hard flesh in her mouth. The feel of it made her twitch inside, longing for it to push deep inside her. She released Evan’s shaft, glided her hand down her stomach, and stroked her folds, squeezing Blake’s shaft with the other hand.

Evan wrapped his big hand around his cock and stroked as he watched her fingers caressing herself, his green eyes gleaming.

She moved down Blake’s long cock again, taking him deeper, her hand tight around the base of his erection. It throbbed in her grip.

“I like watching you do that,” Evan said in a raspy voice, his eyes firmly focusing on the hand between her legs.

He couldn’t really see much since it was below the waterline, but clearly just the knowledge she was touching herself was enough, since his cock rose even taller.

“Oh, fuck, yeah,” Blake said, glancing at her hand in the water as best he could while she bobbed up and down on his cock.

“Baby, come up here and show us what you’re doing there,” Evan said.

She slid off Blake, a line of saliva joining her lips to his cockhead. Slowly, she licked her lips, breaking the connection.

“But I haven’t even started on you,” she said to Evan.

“I don’t care about that right now,” he said as they both stood up and grasped her arms, then lifted her from the pool.

They guided her to a nearby lounge chair and laid her out on it.

“Show us what you were doing in the pool. With your hand,” Evan said.

The two of them had knelt on the ground on either side of the chair, facing her. A little self-consciously, she dipped her hand between her legs again and flicked her fingers over her clit. At the excitement in their eyes, her self-consciousness faded and she stroked herself more firmly, feeling the delightful tremors inside her body. She pushed her fingers inside and stroked.

“I’ve already come,” she said, her words deep and throaty. “I want to make you come now.”

“Baby, with you doing that, I’ll come just watching,” Evan said.

She smiled. “Let me taste you first.”
