I head into my apartment. Selena is out for the night, which means I can take care of my needs in peace. In my room, I open up my toy drawer. The drawer is filled to the brim with a colorful array of dildos and vibrators of different shapes, sizes, and colors. There are smooth silicone ones, ribbed ones, ones with realistic veiny textures and ones with bunny ears.
In the middle of the drawer is a giant dildo that Selena’s sister Sydney gave me as a college graduation gag gift. It’s so large that it’s meant to be comedic, but after seeing Ryan’s dick, I think it might be about the same size.
If that man’s not prepared to fuck me yet, I’m going to have to just make do.
But as I pull the dildo out of my drawer, my phone buzzes with an incoming text. I glance down at the screen, and gasp. It’s Lukas.
We talked the day after the hospital, and he told me that he and Alex were still all-in. They didn’t care that I was seeing Ryan; they still wanted to explore the potential here. And now, it seems, Lukas was making good on that promise.
Lukas: u up? ;)
Warmth floods my cheeks and pools low in my belly. This is a booty call, loud and clear. I know I shouldn’t after my perfect date with Ryan but…I’m only human. And Lukas is temptation incarnate.
Before I can second guess myself, I fire back a text: What’s your address?
With slightly shaking hands, I refresh my lipgloss and fluff my hair. My body is thrumming with anticipation…and more than a little guilt. But I push those feelings aside.
Ryan turned me down tonight. He knows I’m seeing Lukas and Alex too.
And I desperately, desperately need someone to take care of me right now.
Thirty minutes later, my heart races as I stand outside Lukas’s door. I take a deep breath and rap my knuckles against the wood. The door swings open almost immediately, as if Lukas was waiting for me. My mouth goes dry at the sight of him, his blond hair tousled and eyes blazing with heated intent.
“Emma,” he says smoothly, his voice a warm caress up my body. “So glad you could make it.”
He reaches for me and I step into his muscular arms, breathing in his intoxicating scent of cedarwood and musk. His lips graze my ear as he murmurs, “We were just talking about you. Wondering when we’d get to see you again.”
I pull back slightly, my brow furrowing. “We?”
Lukas nods past me and I turn to see Alex emerge from the shadowy interior of the loft. The skills coach is dressed casually in a dark henley that stretches across his broad chest. His dark eyes widen as they rake over my body appreciatively.
“Alex,” I breathe, surprise coloring my tone. “I didn’t realize you’d be here.”
A moment of uncertainty washes over me. Am I intruding on something between them? My gaze darts back and forth between the two handsome men.
But then Lukas’s fingers curl around my wrist, tugging me gently into the loft. “Don’t worry, beautiful,” he assures me with a roguish wink. “You’re exactly where you’re supposed to be. With us.”
His words fill me with a thrill of anticipation even as a pang of guilt needles my conscience. Am I doing the right thing, seeing these incredible but complicated men?
I know I’m risking everything I’ve started to build with Ryan. The rational part of my brain screams at me to turn around and leave before I make a huge mistake.
But with Lukas’s heated gaze pinning me in place and Alex’s dark intensity beckoning me closer, all thoughts of caution melt away, replaced by pulsing need. In that suspended moment, I make my choice.
Desire wins out over doubt. I let Lukas pull me into his arms and kick the door shut behind me, sealing my fate.
CHAPTER 22
EMMA
As the door clicks shut, Lukas pulls me flush against his muscular body. His strong arms wrap around my waist possessively as his lips claim mine in a kiss. I moan into his mouth, my hands fisting in his silky hair.
Lukas kisses me breathless, his tongue delving deep to tangle with mine. When we finally break apart, I’m panting, my lips bee-stung.
“Well, hello to you too,” I tease breathlessly. Lukas just smirks, his green eyes glinting wickedly.
I startle as a second pair of hands skim my hips from behind. I’d almost forgotten Alex was there, too focused on Lukas’s drugging kisses. But there’s no ignoring the skills coach now as he molds his big body against me, his cock already straining against his pants.
“Alex,” I gasp as he nuzzles my neck, nipping and sucking at the sensitive skin. “Oh God…”
