Grateful for the question, my body relaxed. “Frankly the things he wanted to try were disgusting, or maybe it was thathe did them all wrong. I’ve gone through a learning curve since then. I understand what I like.” I winked at Alexander. “And Ireallylike what all three of you did last night.”

“Then we start there and build on that.” Liam squeezed my knee.

The blanket between us kept me from feeling the glide of his skin over mine, but I remembered it well enough for a pulse of heat to spark to life. “I never expected anything like last night.” I gave a self-deprecating laugh. “I expected to work here. Maybe get a dog someday.”

“Is that why you brought up the animal shelter?” Ethan asked.

“It seemed right to add it in. Fur babies make people happy too.” I tugged the blanket up over my hands and sank into the couch. “I love animals. I’ve devoted years to rescuing and rehoming them. A shelter makes that easier, especially in areas that have gone downhill.”

“You have a soft heart,” Alexander said like it surprised him.

I resisted the shrug and owned my emotions. “Yep. Just a big ole softie who gives most of my money to animal charities.”

“Why am I not surprised?” Ethan chuckled and held out his hands. “That’s why there’s an animal charity on our taxes for this year.”

“Caught that, huh?” I flushed. “I talked Yolanda into adding that to the company’s tax deductions.”

“Sounds like you’ve had better luck with animals than men.” Liam brought us back around to the conversation where we’d first started. “I hate that your experience has been so terrible.” A smirk and a wink. “But I’m also grateful you’re open to letting us make things up to you.” He had a gleam in his eyes that triggered butterflies in my belly.

“That’s what I thought my life would be. Work, a dog, and to live my life with my vibrator for pleasure.” The admission cameeasily enough. I’d learned a long time ago that being ashamed of something only made it worse. I owned my past, my present, and my dreams for the future.

“I’d love to see you fuck yourself with a vibrator.” Liam groaned and sat back, running a hand down his considerable length. “Not sure I’d be able to stand it for long without taking over.”

The thought of pleasuring myself while they watched was almost as erotic as last night. Their eyes on me while they took turns was the closest to heaven I’d ever felt.

“I knew you were special.” Alexander spoke with a careful precision that I’d come to expect from him. He was used to people listening to him, and I was no different.

I did disagree with his assessment. “I’m not special.”

“Let me compliment you, Clara.” The admonition came with a knife’s edge of sharpened steel. He met my gaze, his smoldering with things I’d only dared dream of seeing in his eyes. “I’ve never met anyone like you.”

“Oh yeah?” I met the challenge head-on and threw off the blanket. “I’ve already told you how I feel about words. Why don’t you show me what you mean?”

A whisper of cool air brushed over my skin. I’d gone to sleep fully satisfied and woke up with a gnawing sexual appetite that these three men brought roaring to life. My nipples pebbled under the breeze and the hungry looks on all three men’s faces. My legs rested together, and I wanted nothing more than to spread them wide and invite Alexander’s cock inside. I’d take them all in any way possible. Instead, I waited and tested Alexander’s reaction, curious how the alpha male would take the challenge.

Alexander’s nostrils flared. “Anything for you.” He dropped to his knees in front of me and ran both hands up my thighs. “Where do you want me, Clara? Tell me what you need.”

I whimpered when his thumbs brushed over the apex of my thighs. “Everywhere. I want to see you when you fuck me this time. I want to see your face when I milk the cum from your cock and take it deep inside me.”

His lips slammed over mine, silencing my words. One hand parted my thighs and he slid a hand deep between my legs. “‘You’re already wet, Clara.” He spoke against my lips, his smile growing when I gasped as he inserted a finger in my pussy. “So fucking wet for us.” Withdrawing his finger, he held it up for Ethan and Liam to see, then stuck it in his mouth and sucked it clean. A low hum vibrated in his throat. In a move almost too swift for my body to comprehend, he pulled my ass to the edge of the couch and shoved his face between my legs.

“Lucky bastard.” Liam sat back and crossed his arms. His cock tented his pants, but he watched me get eaten out by Alexander without a hint of jealousy.

Ethan rocked his chair back on two legs, his own erection straining. “If you want us to join in, all you have to do is say so.” He held my gaze several seconds before he licked his lower lip and ran his thumb across his mouth. “I can almost taste you from here, Clara.”

Alexander licked me, the rough abrasion of his tongue on my most sensitive area sending my hips up off the couch. “Fuck. Alexander.” I looked down at the crown of his head between my legs and couldn’t stop myself from grabbing fistfuls of his hair. I held him to my pussy and ground onto his face.

“Suck her clit, Alexander. I want to see her face,” Liam demanded.

I expected Alexander to refuse simply because he would not be told what to do by another man, but he backed his mouth off my pussy, used his thumb and forefinger to spread me open, and clasped onto my clit with the fierce possessiveness of a desperate man.

“Oh, she likes that.” Ethan crooned in a low register that hummed over my skin.

I gripped Alexander’s head with both hands, much like Ethan had held mine. I understood the desperate desire to control his movements, to guide him to the perfect spot. “Ah. For all that’s holy, stay there.” He’d hit my clit just right, and pleasure screamed through me.

Just before I came, he pulled out of my hands.
