He pulled away so quickly she almost fell back onto the lounge.

"Oh hell, Lee. I am so sorry. I didn't mean to do that."

She watched him as he paced, unsure how to help him. Her lips tingled from his possession, her entire body humming in appreciation.

"I'm sorry," he said again. "I've got to go."

He grabbed his coat, stomped into his shoes and was gone before she could form a coherent sentence. Lee leaned back against the sofa again, trying to understand what had just happened. Had he really admitted to wanting her as much as she wanted him?

Tracey arrived home to an empty house. Well, wasn't that a kick in the pants? She'd rushed home from the airport expecting to find both of her lovers chomping at the bit to see her, and here she was, all alone.

She wandered through the apartment wondering what to do now.

She hadn't really thought beyond finding her lovers and making sure they both knew how much she had missed them.

The blinking light on the answering machine caught her attention, so she hurried over to see if either of them had left her a message. She pressed the play button.

The first was a hang up. So was the second. Gavin's strong deep voice filled the room on the third.

"Hi, Trace. I decided to do some extra work at the office. So give me a call when you get this message, and I'll come straight home.

Miss you honey. See you soon."

The next message was virtually identical but from Lee.

"Welcome home, Trace. I've got some work to catch up on but if you call me when you get home, I'll be there as soon as I can."

Uncertain what to make of their messages, Tracey picked up the phone to call them back, but hesitated when she couldn't decide who to call first. Shit, that was the problem with being in two separate relationships. Every time she did something with one of her lovers, she felt she had to race off and give the other equal time and, of Ebook piracy is stealing. It is a federal offense.

course, who to do what with first was always a question she was trying to answer.

More perplexing, though, was the fact that neither of them were here to greet her. She'd at least expected them to be anxious for her to be home. Maybe they really were taking her request seriously. She sure felt like a bitch right now. She'd asked them to give her space, hell, she'd practically told them to leave her alone, and now she was acting like a spoiled brat because they were giving her exactly what she wanted. Even knowing how contrary her attitude was, she still felt disappointed.

God, how did the human psyche get so fucked up?

She wanted what she wanted until she got it and then she didn't want it anymore.
Shit!

She placed the phone back on its cradle. Should she just wait for one of them to call her? Or would that make her look like she was pouting? They'd both asked her to call when she got home, so the least she could do was do as they asked.

She picked up the phone and dialed Gavin's cell phone before she could over think it and change her mind again.

"Hi, Trace," he said by way of greeting. "Welcome home."

"Thanks," she said a little nervously. Geez, why was she nervous?

This was her husband, the man she had married for better or worse, the man that she loved and wanted to grow old with.

"Everything okay, honey?" he asked, obviously sensing her distress.

"Ummm...yes," she said, unsure what to say. "I came home to an empty house, that's all."

"Where's Lee?"

"At work, just like you."

"Oh, honey, I'm sorry. If I'd known Lee wasn't going to be there, I would've made sure that I was home. I'll pack up and be there soon.

Do you want me to pick up some dinner on the way?"

"No," she said, trying to wrap her head around practicalities. "I'll order Thai for delivery."

"Okay, Trace. See you soon."

As she hung up the phone, a nagging little suspicion started to grow. She grabbed the phone again and called Lee.

"Hi, baby," she said warmly when she answered. "I'll head home now."

"Lee, is everything okay?"

"Sure. Why wouldn't it be?"

"Oh. No reason," she said quietly, but she hadn't missed the strain in Lee's voice, and she was sure if they'd been face to face Lee would've avoided eye contact.

Something was wrong. She could feel it, and she wanted to get to the bottom of it.

Chapter Seven

Gavin hurried into the apartment, anxious to see Tracey.

Regardless of everything else that had been going through his head, one thing was certain—he loved his wife.

She hurried into his embrace and then trembled in his arms as he kissed her passionately, telling her with his body just how much he'd missed her.

"Oh...Umm...sorry," Lee said as she walked into and then out of the room quickly.

Tracey pulled away from him to glance at Lee's retreating figure and then pin him with her stare.

"What was that all about?"

"What was what about?" he asked, hoping that she wasn't asking what he thought she was asking. She eyed him suspiciously.

"You and Lee have always been comfortable around each other, but I go away for a few days and suddenly you're avoiding each other like the plague. Did you two have a fight?"

"No, nothing like that," he answered as relief flooded his system.

It was short lived.

"Then what happened?" she asked, unknowingly zeroing in on the problem. "Why are you and Lee avoiding each other?"

"Because we kissed," Lee's voice told her from the doorway.

"Kissed?" she asked, her curiosity obvious as her gaze swung from one to the other.

"I'm sorry," Gavin said, anguish abrading his voice. "It was my fault. It shouldn't have happened, and I promise it won't happen again."

"Why?"

"Why did I kiss her?"

"No," Tracey said, smiling at him. "Why won't it happen again?"

Lee gasped in surprise and Gavin's eyes widened.

"Wait a second. You're not angry? You want us to kiss?" Lee asked in a small voice as hope flashed across her face.

"Of course I want you two to kiss," Tracey said smiling widely.

"Do you feel anything for each other? Are there emotions involved as well?"

Gavin nodded, unable to keep eye contact with his wife. He glanced over to see the same misery he felt mirrored on Lee's beautiful face.

"So you love each other?" Tracey persisted. Eighteen months ago, he'd forced the issue with her and Lee, and he supposed that Tracey had every right to know about this, too.

"Yes," Lee said quietly. Gavin's gaze swung to her. He'd hoped she'd feel the same way, but this was the first time either of them had admitted it to the other. Gavin turned back to Tracey.

"Honey, I know this complicates things, but the three of us have gone through so much together, surely there's a way we can work this out, too."

"Of course there is," Tracey said happily, nearly bouncing on the spot. "It's exactly what I hoped would happen. I love you both, and I want you to love each other as much as you love me. Don't you see?

That's what was missing in this relationship. Now we each have two people to love. Now we're a family."

Gavin's throat clogged, and his eyes burned as he absorbed her words. He glanced over to Lee, who seemed to be going through the same thing. Tracey walked over to the doorway, grabbed Lee's hand and pulled her over to Gavin.

She pushed Lee into Gavin's arms and then wrapped hers around the both of them.

"I want you two to be as happy as you've made me. I want this. I want kids and a house and a dog and everything that goes with being a family. Please tell me that's what we're starting here."

Lee held him tight, her head against his chest, as she nodded and cried at the same time.

"Come on, baby," Tracey said to her. "Let's show Gavin how much we love him."

She pulled them both toward the bedroom and Gavin and Lee followed, clumsy in their surprise.

When she entered the room, she urged Gavin to sit on the end of the bed while she stripped the clothing off the woman she loved.

Almost shyly, Lee watched him as Tracey exposed her body to his eyes. He looked his fill, glad for the chance to admire her athletic curves without the guilt he'd been carrying for so long.

Finally, stripped of clothing, Lee was simply more gorgeous than he remembered. Tracey lowered her head to lave both of Lee's nipples, gently biting and sucking them to rigid life. Lee closed her eyes against the exquisite sensations, so Gavin moved closer and claimed her lips. He kissed her gently, reverently, taking his time to savor the contact, to enjoy this first true kiss. She moaned and pressed her sweet body harder against him, whimpering when he wrapped his arms around her hips and ground his hard, jean-clad cock against her.

Soft hands wrapped around him from behind, pushed carefully between them and undid his pants. Tracey slid the zipper lower as he continued to kiss Lee. She helped him kick them off at the same time that Lee's hand found his cock and stroked him lovingly.

"I love you," he said as he gazed into Lee's eyes. They filmed with happy tears and he laughed softly as he hugged her to him. He saw Tracey watching him and smiling. "I love you," he said to her, unable to articulate how much it meant to him for his wife to accept the situation so readily.

"I love you both," she said fervently, "and I want you to love each other just as much."

She kissed Lee as the woman cried freely.

"Baby, I thought eighteen months ago that my life couldn't get any better. Turns out I was wrong. Just think," Tracey said to both of them, "if I hadn't had that car accident..."

"Love by accident? I don't think so," Gavin said laughing. "I think eventually we would have found each other."

* * * *

Lee could barely believe this was happening. She'd fallen in love with Gavin a long time ago but hadn't even admitted it to herself. Lee knew all the reasons why Tracey loved him because she felt the same way. Now, finally, she would be able to express that love freely, no longer worried that her feelings were inappropriate or possibly unwanted.

Gavin groaned as she gripped his thick cock tighter in her hand.

She wanted to taste his hard length, wanted to savor the reality of loving him, so she dropped to her knees in front of him. His hands threaded through her hair as she flicked her tongue out and licked the salty pre-cum from the deep pink head.

"Oh honey, I think he likes that." Tracey knelt beside her, a gentle hand smoothing over the sensitive skin on Lee's ass. "Maybe he would like it better if we both did it."

The strangled groan that escaped Gavin's throat, urged them to try it. Tracey leaned forward and ran her tongue over the mushroom shaped head as Lee licked down one side and fondled his sack. Their mouths met back at the tip of his cock and they kissed, tonguing each other around Gavin's straining erection.

He moved one hand into Tracey's hair, urging both of them closer.

Closer to him, closer to each other. His hips moved rhythmically as they bought him to the edge of orgasm. Lee opened her mouth wide and let Tracey guide his cock deep into her. She sucked hard, gripping his thighs as he began rocking into her throat. She swallowed around Ebook piracy is stealing. It is a federal offense.

him at the same time that Tracey's hands drifted lower to pinch her nipples. Lee moaned at the exquisite sting, the sound vibrating against Gavin's cock.

He stilled, stiffened for a moment, holding Lee's face hard against him as his cock pulsed and creamy ribbons of cum burst into her mouth, painting the back of her throat before she swallowed.

Carefully extricating himself, he dropped to his knees, pulling both women into his embrace. Tracey smiled knowingly, pressed a kiss to his mouth and then turned her attentions to Lee.

"On the bed, baby." Her voice was husky, her arousal obvious in every word. Quick to follow Tracey's instructions, Lee moved away from Gavin and climbed onto the bed. She lay down on her side as she watched Tracey kiss Gavin with wild abandon. By the time she pulled away, he was breathing hard again.

"I'm so happy you love Lee. She's waiting for you."

Lee's breath caught, excitement stealing her voice, her body pulsing with arousal. The way Gavin looked at her…it was the same way he'd always looked at Tracey, like she was the centre of his universe. It felt incredible to have his love and amazing that she also had Tracey's. She'd spent so much time feeling guilty for her feelings for Gavin that right now she felt so light, so happy, that she could almost float to the ceiling.

Gavin and Tracey moved toward the bed, and Lee realized that there was nowhere else in the world she'd rather be.

Tracey moved onto the bed, pushed Lee onto her back and tweaked Lee's already stiff nipples with her fingers at the same time that Gavin pushed Lee's legs apart and lowered his head to her dripping slit. Lee whimpered as he laved her sensitive flesh with his tongue. He gripped her thighs to push her legs farther apart, tilting her pussy toward his face as he delved into her heat.
