Page 36 of Christmas with Four Tattoo Artists

I looked up at him, my heart still racing, my body still tingling from the unbelievable ecstasy he'd just given me. "That was incredible."

He kissed me, his lips soft and lingering. "Only the best for you, Julia."

After Finn's mind-blowing demonstration, I was a tangled mess of satisfaction and need, still yearning for more. The guys had shown me their individual kinks, and with a fierce determination in my eyes, I faced them all.

They gathered around me, their arms warm and comforting, their bodies strong and reassuring. I was the focus of their attention, the recipient of their desire.

"Feeling good?" Andrew asked, his voice filled with satisfaction.

I could only nod, my mind still reeling, my body still quivering from the pleasure they'd given me.

"You're incredible, Julia," James murmured, his lips brushing against my forehead.

I looked up at them, my eyes filled with gratitude and something more, something deeper. "Thank you," I whispered, my voice breaking. "Thank you for this. For everything."

They held me, their touch gentle, their presence soothing. I knew then that I had found something special, something unique. These men, with their individual kinks and their shared passion, had given me an experience like no other.

As we all lay together, our breaths slowly returning to normal, a playful smile crept across my face. "So, gentlemen, I suppose you're all dying to know who won this little competition of yours."

Their eyes sparkled with curiosity and amusement, each of them waiting for my verdict.

"Well?" Kai prompted, his voice teasing.

I propped myself up on one elbow, surveying them with a faux-serious expression. "It's a tough call. You've all shown incredible... talents." I let my eyes linger on each of them, my voice dripping with innuendo. "But I'm afraid I can't make a decision just yet."

Finn raised an eyebrow, his lips curving into a smirk. "Oh really? And why is that?"

I leaned in closer, my voice dropping to a conspiratorial whisper. "Well, you see, I think I need a few more demonstrations. You know, to be absolutely sure."

Andrew laughed, his eyes twinkling with mischief. "A few more, you say. How many is a few?"

I pretended to ponder, tapping my finger against my chin. "Oh, I don't know. A couple of weeks' worth, maybe. I want to beverythorough, after all."

James chuckled, pulling me closer. "Thorough, huh? We can definitely do thorough."

"Oh, I know you can," I replied, my voice full of confidence. "But the question is, can you do it well enough to win?"

They exchanged glances, a new determination in their eyes. "Challenge accepted," Kai declared.

I settled back down, nestling into their arms, a triumphant smile on my face. They thought they were competing for a prize, but the truth was, I was the real winner.

Chapter 15

Julia

The day after our little competition, work at the tattoo parlor was buzzing with the usual energy. Finn and Kai were engrossed in business talk in the back office, papers spread out everywhere and pens flying. Andrew was busy tattooing a client, the rhythmic buzz of the machine mingling with Judas Priest playing in the background.

James was on duty but was expected to come by later, we had plans to see a movie and grab a bite. I was beside myself with excitement in the way I always was at the idea of spending time with the guys.

Maddie was standing at my desk attempting to get me to give her some details about what was happening in my private life. "Alright, Jules, spill the beans," Maddie said. Her blue eyes sparkled with excitement as she leaned against the counter. "What's got you so giddy today?"

The idea of revealing what had been going on with me and the guys was almost too much. Normally, I’d never come out with such personal information at work—especially when the dudes I was hooking up with were my bosses, not to mention Maddie’s.

I tried to suppress a giggle but failed miserably. "God, if I told you, you'd never believe me."

My comment only piqued her curiosity more. "Try me."

I took a deep breath, feeling the heat rising in my cheeks. "Okay, don't judge, but…”
