“Lucy is right there,” I grumble under my breath.

“She’s not paying attention I promise,” Alexander says smoothly, squeezing his hand on my ass and making me squirm.

My body responds and heat pools between my legs. I can’t take these two men. They make it impossible to be alone with them without it turning hot. And I’m not even alone with them. My own sister is across the table from me, either eating her dinner or falling in love with Josh over again. I try to concentrate on their conversation, but the feel of Nolan’s hand snaking up my inner thigh makes it hard to focus on anything beyond how illicit this is.

I clamp my legs shut, trapping his hand between them and pick up another spear of asparagus. To tease him, I suck the butter off slowly. If I can’t beat them at their own game, I may as well join them. They are right. I need to concentrate on something other than Josh and Lucy.

There’s a low growl from my other side and Alexander’s hand is on my other thigh. Between them, they pry my legs open causing me to almost choke on my food.

“You alright, Lauren?” Lucy calls across the table. So she’s finally noticed me. I nod and wipe the tears from my eyes caused by the choking. “Asparagus went down the wrong way.”

“Ok. You good now?”

“Yes!” I yelp as Nolan’s hand travels up and slides to my panties. “I’m fine.”

I hear her begin to chat to Josh again. Alexander pulls my panties to one side as Nolan slips his fingers inside me. I have to bite my lip to stop from crying out again. Alexander begins to play with my clit, causing me to grab onto the table. It’s getting harder to eat like nothing is happening with the two of them fighting for space in my pants. And yet there is no fight. They are working together, Alexander on my clit and Nolan dipping in and out of me, hitting my sweet spot.

I stab my fork into a potato and put it in my mouth, trying to look impassive as anyone would eating a potato.

“Mmmm,” I groan as Nolan thrusts into me. “These potatoes are amazing,” I bluster, trying not to choke again.

“Yeah, they are good,” Lucy comments. My body tenses up and I have to grit my teeth and grip my fork as I’m hit with an earth shattering orgasm. I’m mortified at how I must look, but as Nolan pulls his fingers out of me and Alexander tucks my panties back where they should be and straightens out my skirt, I plant a smile on my face.

“You should have more asparagus,” Nolan says nonchalantly like he hasn’t just made me come in front of my sister. “Secret sauce. It’s luscious.”

I pick up one of the asparagus stalks on my plate and put it in my mouth. It no longer tastes buttery, but has some other taste. I nearly die when I realize it wasn’t Nolan’s fingers in me at all. I begin to choke again and have to take a sip of water. These men have no shame.

“I’ll try one of those asparagus stalks,” Josh says. My heart nearly stops as I feel the table jolt slightly as though he’s leaning over it.

“This really is something else,” Josh says, taking my mortification to a new level. “What’s the secret ingredient?”

If I wasn’t wedged between Alexander and Nolan, I’d be running to the ocean to throw myself in it.

“That would be telling, but if you’re all good, I might use it again. Lucinda. Want to try?”

“No!” I blurt out, hitting Nolan in the thigh. “It’s covered in butter. Don’t want to wreck the diet. We’ll be out of this mess soon and you’ll want to go back to the big screen I guess. Will you all excuse me?”

“Are you sure, you’re alright,” Lucy asks, her voice full of concern.

“Yeah. I just thought I’d go dip my toes in the pool.”

“Cool. We’ll join you,” Nolan says. I can hear the glee in his voice. “Nice night for a spot of skinny dipping.”

“Why don’t we all go out?” Alexander claps his hands. “We can have dessert when we come back in.”

“Urgh. Maybe no to the skinny dipping if I have to see Nix’s hairy ass,” Nolan quips as I slide out past him.

Lucy rounds the table and takes my hand. “I’ll have you know that Josh has a great ass, if I remember rightly. See you all out there in five. We’re not in our bathing suits.”

My shame turns into a stone in the pit of my stomach as Lucy leads me to my room.

I desperately want to ask her how she knows what Josh’s ass looks like, but how can I?

It’s none of my business. Not anymore. Whatever they did last night was obviously a whole lot more than just talking. I swallow back my shame and the jealousy as I pull out a bathing suit and slip it on. Then I find a sarong and wrap it round my waist. I didn’t plan on going swimming this evening, but I can hardly back out now. If I say I have a headache, Lucy will know that I’m lying. I’ve never been able to keep any secrets from her. Then I realize all the secrets I am keeping from her. It’s not that I’ve never been able to lie to her, but before now, I’ve had nothing to lie about. She’s sleeping with Josh. I’m sleeping with Alexander and Nolan although I’ve not actually had any sleep near them. And both of us are keeping our secrets close to our chest. I feel as though I’m losing her.

I step out of my room and wait for Lucy. She joins me a minute later and holds my hand. For the first time in my life I don’t want to hold her hand. I can make my own way to the pool. I know every inch of this island and can navigate it perfectly well on my own. I can’t tell her this though. Instead, I let go and bend down to my sandal.”Sandal’s come loose. You go ahead. I’ll catch you up. She hesitates as though she’s about to say something, but she doesn’t.

“Okay. See you there.”
