Bound by Their Kisses (14 page)

Tessa had thought she’d found the missing part of her with her ex, but that hadn’t worked out. Would this? Did she have the courage to see it through to find out? With each push and pull of the men’s cocks in her body, she drew closer to the affirmative. They could easily fill every tiny crevice of her heart and soul, binding her to them as surely as Paul had chained her to him in before.

But this was different. She could break these bindings and walk away. Maybe not without losing a piece of her soul in the process, but she had the ability to do it this way. And that was the beauty of it.

Tag leaned in and sucked one nipple into his hot mouth. She nearly screamed at the sensation as it shot straight to her clit. They were killing her. As surely as she was breathing, or maybe not breathing, they were going to kill her with pleasure.

“Oh, God! So good,” she hissed out with another moan.

Tag pumped his thick cock up into her pussy. Each time it dragged over her clit, sending shards of sensation throughout her body. His massive shaft touched every pleasure point inside her cunt, stimulating her sweet spot in just the right way. With Zander filling her ass, Tessa felt full to overflowing. She’d never been with two men before and now she couldn’t imagine anything different. Yes, they’d each have alone time with her, but together like this pounded home the fact that they were a family.

Nerve endings that had only given her pain with anal sex before were changing their tune with Zander seeing to her needs. She couldn’t believe how different everything felt with the right men making love to her. Yes, they were fucking. Hard, down-and-dirty sex, but with them, it would always be making love because that was how they felt about each other. She knew it deep in her heart. They might not have uttered the words, but their looks, the way they touched her, and how they treated her told her better than words that it was love they felt.

In and out, they moved her between them so that all she had to do was take them, allow them in her body while they did all the work. Tag’s thick dick rubbed in one direction while Zander’s hard cock slid in the opposite direction, mere millimeters of tissue separating them. Tessa fought to hold on as her climax built into something that was almost frightening. The double sensations rode her hard, promising something she’d never experienced before.

Zander reached between her and Tag, pushing one finger up until he located her clit. The first press of it against her sensitive bundle tore a scream from her before she expected it. Lights burst behind her tightly closed eyelids as pleasure so hot, so intense it was almost painful tore through her body. She felt both men stiffen below and behind her, knowing they’d been dragged over by her orgasm. She was sure she screamed and believed her men shouted, but the roaring in her ears was so loud she heard nothing over it.

The next thing she knew, Tag was leaning over her, brushing his fingers along he cheek. She looked down when something warm and wet brushed the insides of her thighs. Zander was sitting between her legs cleaning her up.

“What happened?” she asked. It came out almost like a croak.

Tag chuckled, honestly chuckled. “You passed out on us, baby. Scared poor Zander to death. Thought he was going to pass out with you.”

“Fuck you, Tag. You’re the one who wanted to call a doctor,” Zander teased with a smile.

“Really? I passed out?” She’d never done that before.

“Yeah, baby girl. You gave us a scare. But it’s all good, though. We know you’re fine and it was just our awesome sexual powers that overwhelmed you. We’ll try to tone it done next time,” Tag said with a straight face.

She and Zander burst out laughing. Grabbing a handful of his beautiful long black hair, she pulled him down so she could look into his eyes.

“Don’t you dare! I loved every second of it.”

“And we love every inch of you, kitten,” Zander said as he crawled up her body.

“I love you guys, too. I didn’t want to, but you didn’t give me much of an option,” she said with a smile. “You’re persistent. I’ll give you that.”

“We talk tomorrow after work, guys,” Zander said. “No more surprises. I want everything out in the open between us.”

“I agree,” Tag said. “We’ll postpone our shopping trip until after we talk.”

Tessa narrowed her eyes at him and jerked his head down using the hair she held in her grip. Surprise crossed his face before she covered his lips with hers. She took advantage of his initial shock and controlled the kiss for all of a second before he wrested control from her and took her breath away. When he pulled back she grinned up at him.

“We’ll talk about shopping trips when we talk tomorrow. So be ready.”

“Right now we all need to get some rest. It’s nearly midnight. Six comes early, guys,” Zander reminded them.

Tessa groaned. Even if she didn’t have to be at work till nine, they’d wake her up for sure getting ready. Plus, she needed one of them to drive her to work. She was used to getting up early, but she was also used to going to bed early as well. Life was changing, and despite the future promise of less sleep in her future, she wouldn’t complain.

Tessa rode to work with Zander since he was right next door to Heavy Trinkets. He kissed her at the door to the store then walked back to his shop. The moment she walked inside the store, Tessa knew she was in for some teasing. Kelly and Steve stood just inside the shop with wide grins on their faces.

“Looks like someone’s been busy over the weekend,” Kelly said.

“Where’s your guys? I’m surprised that I don’t see one of them with you here,” Tessa teased back.

“Oh, Marx will be back in a few minutes. He just left me here with Steve while he went to take care of some business. I was dropping off an order and saw you getting out of Zander’s truck.” Kelly wiggled her eyebrows and waited, obviously expecting her to fill her in on what was going on between them.

“Um, well, he gave me a ride to work this morning so I wouldn’t have to walk,” she finally said, walking toward the back past a grinning Steve.

“Uh-huh. And since you’re not living in the apartments anymore, that would be a ride from where exactly?” Kelly asked, following right behind her.

Tessa cringed. How had she found that out? Who would even know after only one day? She turned and narrowed her eyes at Steve. He knew she had seen the men but didn’t know she’d moved in with them. Did he? Had one of her guys bragged about getting her in bed with them?

“Hey. Don’t look at me.” He took a step back, holding both hands up in the air. “I didn’t know you’d moved. I’ll need your new address for my records, though.”

She growled when he grinned. She was going to kill someone. It might as well be her boss. Tessa took a step toward him.

“So how do you like the house? I hear it’s beautiful on the inside but needs some decorating. You know men. They can’t match colors for anything,” Kelly continued.

“Why do you think I’ve seen the inside of their house?” she asked, sticking one hand on her hip to glare at her ex-best friend.

Jessie laughed. “You should see your face. You look as if you’d like to chew me up and spit me out right now. Honey. Nothing is sacred in a small town like Perkins City. Get used to it. Besides. Tag and Zander haven’t exactly hidden their plan to capture you for their own. The way they feel about you is written all over their faces anytime you’re around or someone mentions your name. We all knew it was just a matter of time if you stuck around town.”

“Hell, some of us even had a pool going on how long it would take for you to cave,” Steve said then frowned. “I lost. I think Marx won, but I’m not sure. We’ll find out at the club this weekend.”

“You bet on me?” Horror had Tessa seeing red. “I can’t believe you were taking bets on me. That’s, that’s…oh!” She couldn’t finish her thoughts.

“Calm down, Tessa. It’s all in fun. We care about you and only wanted you to be happy. None of us would have ever stood by and let them pursue you if we didn’t think they could make you happy and their intentions were honest,” Kelly said, stepping closer to her.

“I can’t believe everyone already knows I’m sleeping with them. I’m not easy. I mean we have known each other for nearly a year now. Oh, God! Everyone is going to think I’m a slut because I’ve already moved in with them after one freaking date!” Tessa ran for the back and locked herself in the bathroom.

“Tessa. Please come out. No one thinks anything like that at all. And no one knows but a few of the members of Golden Shackles. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you. I was just teasing you. Please don’t be upset. Come out so I can tell you my secret. Please, Tessa?”

Kelly did sound worried about upsetting her like she had. Still, just how many people knew that she was living with the two men? Crap! It had only been one night. How had they found out already?

“Please come out, Tessa. I feel terrible now. We were just so excited that you were finally going to be with Zander and Tag that we couldn’t help ourselves. Please, Tessa,” Kelly pleaded.

She bumped her head against the door in frustration. She knew she couldn’t stay in there all day. In fact, Steve would be opening the store soon and she was supposed to be out there waiting. Tessa stepped back and unlocked the door, cracking it just enough to be sure it was just Kelly out there waiting on her. When she saw that it was, Tessa opened the door and stepped out.

“I’m sorry. I really didn’t mean to upset you. The only people who know are Steve, Ben, me, Marx, and Jackson. The only reason we know is that Tag asked Marx to open the shop for him this morning so someone could drop off their bike early on their way to work. He told Marx that he’d worked late last night and didn’t think he’d make it in early enough. Marx had already made plans to be in town at six to drop off a calf at the vet, so Tag knew he could do it for him.” Kelly’s hurried explanation still didn’t explain how they knew she’d stayed the night with them.

“That still doesn’t explain how you knew I was at their house, Kelly.”

Kelly grinned. “Well, Marx asked him why he couldn’t stumble downstairs in his boxers and unlock the damn door for the guy then lock it back and go back to bed. He said ‘you do live above the shop you know’. Tag growled at him. Really! He did. I heard him over the phone because I was sitting on him at the time.” Kelly’s face turned red. “Well, never mind about that. Anyway, Tag told him that he and Zander had finally convinced you to move in with them and he’d already fucked up and needed to make it up to you. So what did he do?”

Tessa just stared at the woman for a few seconds. “Um, why were you sitting on Marx?” she asked instead.

Kelly narrowed her eyes at her. “I think that’s between the two of us.”

“Ditto, sweetie. Ditto,” she said with a smug smile.

Kelly rolled her eyes. “Bitch. Now I’m not going to tell you my secret.”

Tessa bit her lip, dying to know what Kelly thought was secret worthy if her living with two men wasn’t it. Finally she sighed and gave in.

“He started off right away trying to take over everything and tell me what to do. No one is going to run my life again. They sort of pushed some buttons that got me upset in the process,” she admitted. She wasn’t about to tell Kelly about the basement incident. That was something she didn’t want anyone else to ever know about.

Kelly chuckled. “Men are terrible about doing that sort of thing, especially Doms, and you know Tag and Zander are Doms, Tessa. Giving orders is in their blood.”

“I know, but there are some things I won’t tolerate. We’ve still got some things to work out. Now what’s your secret?” Ever since they had gotten married and taken a week off to some undisclosed location, Kelly was seldom seen without her men surrounding her.

“Is it about where you went for your honeymoon? Was it a tropical island?” she asked.

“Hmm, maybe I’ll tell you about that another time. No, this is something that no one knows yet, not even my guys. So you have to keep it a secret until I tell them,” she said.

Tessa’s mouth flew open then slammed shut. “Really? A baby?” she whispered in excitement.

Kelly smiled and nodded. “I just found out this morning. I haven’t been to the doctor yet to be sure. I wanted to wait a few more days until my appointment with the doc. They’re going with me since they can’t seem to stand the idea of another man seeing me naked even if he is married with grown children.”

Tessa chuckled. “Living with them has to be interesting with all those handsome cowboys working for them.”

Kelly grinned. “Yep. I’ve had to be sure not to stare out the window too often. Jackson has already threatened to fire them all and find nothing but bucktoothed bowlegged old timers if I don’t stop drooling over his help.”

“They’re going to kill you when they figure out that you already knew before them and didn’t share,” Tessa pointed out.

“I know. I can’t wait!” Kelly admitted. “I’m expecting a good spanking.”

“Or, they’ll punish you by not spanking you because they won’t want to hurt you or the baby,” Tessa pointed out with an evil grin.

Kelly frowned and glared at her. “Don’t screw up my plans.” Then she smiled and pulled Tessa into her arms to hug her. “I’m so happy for you.”

“I better get out front. I’m sure Steve is chomping at the bit to open the door and I’m not there to take care of customers.” She stepped out of Kelly’s hug.

“Just remember that you can always call me if you have questions or something is bothering you, Tessa. Living with two men isn’t always easy, especially two Doms. Just remember that they are always trying to take care of you and keep you safe. They don’t mean to be bossy, overbearing assholes on purpose.” Kelly smiled at her. “Give yourself time to adjust to them and them to you.”

“Thanks, Kelly. I will. I appreciate it.” She left the other woman to unpack her box of jewelry and took Steve’s place out on the floor.

“I’ve already unlocked the door and the cash register is set up for you,” he said. “Everything okay?”

“Yeah. Thanks. Sorry for freaking out, but I’m not used to people knowing everything bout you like that. Plus, I already feel weird about moving in with them like this,” she admitted.
