Page 80 of Stealing Mercury
Lo didn’t budge. “It must always be her choice. Not yours.”
Samantha realized then they intended to make love to her together. Lo hadn’t gone with her mother because he wanted to be included. He was hovering by the door because he waited for her to welcome him into her bed for more than sleeping. Both men waited, tense, for her response. She could see that Mercury wanted Lo with them, but he wouldn’t force the issue.
She’d been too busy and too exhausted to do more than sleep on the transport ship, but there was no more reason to put off dealing directly with what she’d done. She’d taken them both as lovers. She hadn’t planned it, but they needed to know she didn’t regret it either. She might not be comfortable with it, but she didn’t want to undo it.
She reached out a hand toward Lo. “Come here. Please.”
He moved in a blur of motion. In the next breath she was on her back with Lo over her, his face buried against her neck.
She heard Mercury laugh—a low, gravelly sound that flooded her body with anticipation. He shoved Lo off her, but it was a playful gesture. Lo rolled with fluid grace, to lie beside her.
Mercury leaned over and kissed her lips, nipping gently then tracing the tender area with his tongue. She followed his lead, using her teeth and tongue and got lost in the back and forth of it. Mercury could always do that to her, overwhelm her with just a kiss.
Her breasts ached and tension coiled low in her belly. She arched her back, needing his touch. He reached for her, one big hand firmly stroking. Stroking from her belly button to her ribs. He palmed her breast and gently squeezed.
“More,” she pleaded.
“Yes,courra, we’ll give you more.” He pushed at her top and she helped him pull it over her head.
The spell Mercury had woven broke long enough for her to be aware that Lo hadn’t gone far. He lay close, watching. He’d stripped his clothes off and had his cock in his hand. Seeing him stroke his thick cock made her pussy clench.
Mercury ran a fingertip down her nose, tempting her thoughts back to him. His eyes darkened, eclipsing the silver almost entirely. She reached for him and he came over her, nuzzling her neck. He trailed kisses down to her breasts. Wet heat engulfed one nipple and expert fingers teased the other to painful attention. She squirmed with pleasure.
Samantha traced her hands over Mercury’s chest. His skin was hot and touchable over hard muscle. She flexed her fingers digging into resilient flesh. He growled around her nipple, sending pleasure vibrating through her body. He liked firm handling. The evidence of that pressed against her hip then lifted away as he moved lower and began to pull at her briefs.
She lifted her hips to help him. Lo yanked away the blankets that had been tangled around them. Presumably, because they’d been blocking his view. His eyes were on her now completely bared body.
She had to close her eyes and concentrate on her breathing to control the strange hitch that thought had caused in her pulse.
“Samantha?” Mercury sounded concerned, but she didn’t know how to respond.
He’d moved to lie alongside her. The heat of his body warmed her, but he didn’t touch her other than the undemanding press of skin. It must have taken some doing to keep his impressive cock from pressing against her.
He was trying to be considerate. How did she tell him that was the last thing she wanted him to be?
He wrapped his hand around her neck and squeezed gently. “Samantha?” His tone was sharper this time, and her eyes shot open.
“It’s okay. Just—” Lo watching Mercury strip her naked had seemed both terrifying and exciting. What would they think of her if they knew the idea of Lo watching Mercury slide his cock into her made her damp and needy. She knew it had to be what they wanted, or at least part of it, but was she supposed to want it to? “Stars, this is confusing.”
She heard Lo shift and knew he’d leave. The sadness in Mercury’s stormy eyes gave her the excuse she needed to twist and make a grab for Lo. Her fingers dug into his hip and he eased back toward them in response.
“Don’t go.” And she meant it, one hundred percent. Mercury was all her heart needed, but that didn’t mean her heart didn’t welcome Lo. The rest of her body had no objection at all to him being a part of their lovemaking.
Luckily, she didn’t have to ponder it for long. Mercury touched his lips to hers and she was lost in him again. He pressed quick kisses across her lips, cheeks, jaw, and then it all changed when he got to her neck. Big, open-mouthed tastes made her squirm beneath him.
His tongue traced along her throat and she clutched at his biceps, trying to pull him over her. The bulk of him didn’t budge, but she could finally feel his hard length against her thigh again. Stars, his cock was big. How had he ever gotten inside her?
She’d have turned her body to press along his, if she could have, but he easily held her in place until his hand slid down the front of her body. Then she no longer wanted to move.
His hand trailed down further, molding over her curves and ending with the firm press of his hand between her legs. There was nothing she could do to stop the movement of her hips as she arched into him, needing more pressure, more contact, more anything.
“Please,” she urged.
He obliged her with enthusiasm. His fingers dipped between the folds of her sex, shooting sparks of electricity through her nervous system.
“Is she wet?” Lo’s voice sounded eager and dirty and it made her want to spread her legs wider, to give Mercury more room to explore.
“Very.” Mercury confirmed it between kisses as he slipped a long finger into her damp heat. “It feels so good,” he spoke against her skin. “I want to push my cock into her now. I almost don’t want to wait.”
