Heated for Pleasure (3 page)

“I’m not sure.” Ashley shrugged her shoulders. She wasn’t sure, so it wasn’t exactly a lie. But she heard Andre ask once more if the thought of three men making her come again and again turned her on. It did. Tenfold.

“Well, nothing wrong with playing the field a bit. Maybe give them all a test drive.”

Ashley nearly choked on her drink of water. Oh my God! If Mavis only knew how close that remark hit to home. She wanted to test drive all of them. At the same time. Her pussy grew moist at the thought.

“It’s a new day and age. Women can do that now. You can get away with being more sexually assertive and not being thought of as a slut or a bad girl. Wasn’t that way when I was your age. I wish it had been.”

Ashley laughed as Mavis wiggled her brows. “I’m guessing that didn’t stop you much.”

Mavis grinned. “I had my moments. Don’t regret any of them. Then I met my Fred and scooped him right up. We had forty wonderful years together. God bless his soul.”

“I’m sorry, Mavis.”

“Nothing to be sorry for. Forty is a lot of years. I’m blessed.”

“It’s nice to know someone whose marriage made it through the long haul.”

“Oh, we had our moments. Fought as much as we loved. But that man had a wicked tongue he loved to use.” She wiggled her brows again so Ashley wouldn’t misunderstand her meaning.

“Mavis!” Ashley blushed bright red.

Mavis just laughed. “You’d think you were the woman in her sixties and not me. Loosen up, Ashley. Have some fun. Generate some heat outside the kitchen.”

Ashley wanted to do that. But did she dare? Could she really take Andre up on the offer to spend the weekend with all three of them?

“Besides, as far as I can tell, there’s only one decision to make.”

“What’s that?” Ashley questioned.

“Whether you like chocolate, vanilla, or mocha better?”

Mavis left with a hearty laugh. Ashley was sure her shocked expression was the cause. Mavis lived to make her blush.

Maybe this time the last laugh would be Ashley’s. She could just imagine Mavis’ face if she told the other woman what she was really deciding about. Mavis would tell her to quit thinking and start doing. And maybe she was right. Ashley had been the good girl, the responsible girl. Maybe it was past time to let her wild side out and have a little fun. She pictured Andre, Linc, and Diego in her mind. Why pick one flavor when she could have all three?

She would be waiting for them Friday night with her bag packed—a few lingerie items, maybe a few of her toys. She wasn’t sure what they had in mind, but she planned to be open to anything. What did she have to lose?

Chapter Three

What had she been thinking? She was crazy. This was crazy. She just needed to pick her bag up and haul her ass home. What made her think she could take on three virile men? Hell, it’d been too long since she’d had one! Yet, she could hear herself telling her sisters to just go for it. Time to take her own advice.

She’d been getting to know them for two weeks now, plus all the snooping Mavis had done. If there had been any dirty secrets or hidden girlfriends, super-sleuth Mavis would have snooped it out. Still… Was this totally insane?

There was only one thing to do. She’d take her own advice again and be safe. Without giving herself another second to think about it, she hit the preset number one on her phone.

“Hey, Ash! What’s up?” Her sister’s voice greeted her immediately. She swore Mandy had answered even before it rang.

“I’m doing something really stupid and need to tell someone, just in case.”

“Just in case of what? What are you doing?” Mandy sounded on full alert now.

Ashley took a deep breath and just blurted it all out. “I’m going to spend the weekend with three firefighters I don’t really know because I can’t pick between them, and I know I’m being stupid, but I can’t seem to talk myself out of it and just tell me not to.” She stopped only because she was out of breath.

“Do you think they’ll hurt you physically?” Mandy demanded.

“No, of course not,” Ashley admitted.

Her sister surprised her with a laugh. “Then go for it. I can tell you from experience being with three men is amazing.”

“What?”

Mandy laughed again. “Well, there’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you, but couldn’t really figure out how to. Now seems like the perfect time.”

“Three men?” Ashley could only seem to focus on that point at the moment.

“Three cops. I met them when I moved here, and well, things just sort of clicked for us. We’ve been living together for a while now.”

“You? Three? Cops?” Ashley had no idea what to ask or say or even think. Her sister was in a relationship with three men.

“Yes. Me and three cops. It’s great, Ash. I’ve never been so happy.”

“I… It works? You can be with three men and not have jealousy issues?”

“Yes. At least, not with each other. Now, if I happen to be out somewhere and another man looks at me… Well, let’s just say they aren’t happy.”

“Three men?”

“Don’t sound so shocked, sister dear,” Mandy replied with a laugh. “I seem to recall someone telling me to just go for it if it felt good. Besides, sounds like you’ve got something similar planned as well.”

“Oh my God. Is Mia with three men, too?”

“It wouldn’t surprise me. Besides, she’d just claim it was research for her next naughty novel.”

Mandy was probably right. That was exactly what Mia would say.

“So…yeah?”

“Definitely yeah,” Mandy said.

“I’d just about convinced myself to say no.”

“Why? I’m betting you haven’t attempted to date at all since you opened the bakery. Take some time for you. Do you want to go with them for the weekend?”

“Yes,” Ashley admitted.

“Then do it. Keep your phone with you. Call me by nine tomorrow morning, or I’ll call you. If I can’t reach you, then I’ll have one of my guys contact the local police department. I want the names of who you’ll be with.”

Ashley gave her their names, even though she felt a little silly now. Still, at least someone would know exactly where she was and with whom. It suited the more responsible, practical side of her personality. Now, she could indulge that inner wild child who really wanted to come out and play. God, did she want to play.

“Cops, huh?”

“You would go with firefighters,” Mandy fired back. “All that heat.”

“Oh God. This is crazy.”

“Mia would pick our brains if she knew.”

“She’d one up us if she knew.”

“With what? What’s left?”

“She’d find something. Military probably.”

“That wouldn’t be good enough for her. She’d have to go bigger. Maybe Rangers? Or SEALs?”

“I don’t want to think about it,” Ashley groaned, making her sister laugh again.

“Just have fun, Ash. And don’t forget to call me. I’d hate to have cops show up and interrupt the fun you’re having.”

“Oh, God.”

Mandy laughed harder. “I love you, sis.”

“I love you too.”

Ashley hung up the phone just as a knock sounded at the front door. Her decision was made for her. It was too late to leave. She could tell him—them—she’d decided not to, but her bag was already by the door, giving testament to her willingness. It was now or never. She thought of how happy Mandy had sounded. She wanted a little of that. If only for one weekend.

Taking a deep breath, she opened the door. Linc stood there looking casual in jeans and a t-shirt that claimed firemen had big hoses. She felt the color climbing into her cheeks and damned her fair skin. He just grinned and glanced down at where she had her bag beside the door.

“Are you sure?” he asked, and when she nodded, he bent to pick up her bag. “I’m glad.”

She was nervous, so nervous and unsure of what to say or do. It made no sense. She could be kinky and wild with one man. Did adding two more really make a difference? She should have asked her sister some specific questions, but she’d been caught by surprise at Mandy’s confession.

“The truck’s over here.” He held his hand out to her. She shut and locked the door, checking to be sure a couple of times before she finally put her hand in his.

“I’m nervous, too.” His admission took her by surprise.

“Really?”

“I think we all are. This isn’t something we do all the time.”

“Oh, I just thought…” She trailed off and shrugged her shoulders.

“No. We shared once a long time ago when we were in college. But no one since then.”

“Why me?”

Linc smiled. “Because we all want you, and we’re too old to call dibs. Though, trust me, we all tried.”

She laughed, as she was sure he intended her to. He was smooth, engaging. She wondered what he would be like in the bedroom.

“I’ve never been with three men before,” she admitted.

“Ever or all at the same time?” His eyes twinkled as he asked.

She was thankful for the dark of night and hoped it hid her blush. Unfortunately, it didn’t.

Linc stopped. “Are you a virgin?”

“No!” She shook her head. “I’ve been with several men. Separately. I mean, I dated them each and was only with the one I was dating at the time. Not anyone else. I—”

He cut her off with a chuckle and a finger pressed to her lips. “It’s okay. I know what you mean.”

They reached the truck then, and he held the back door open for her. She slid in and kept sliding as he moved in beside her. Andre was behind the wheel, and Diego sat up front with him. She heard the door close. Then Linc loomed over her. It took her a minute to realize he was fastening her seatbelt. Then she felt foolish for not doing it herself.

“I could have done that.”

“It was my pleasure,” Linc whispered, nibbling at her ear and letting his hand brush across her breasts as he moved back to sit beside her.

She was on fire, a flagrant inferno of desire, want, and need. The truck was overflowing with testosterone. Every set of eyes she glimpsed was hooded and filled with lust. They all knew why she was here. By coming, she was agreeing to be with all three of them. There was no need to pretend otherwise.

Diego sniffed loudly. “I’m not sure if that’s your perfume or what. But you smell good enough to eat.”

She remembered Andre talking about them each doing just that and shifted in her seat.

Diego grinned wickedly. “Oh, I definitely want to eat my fill of that.”

“Oh God,” she mumbled. His voice just did things to her.

“Just call me Diego.”

She laughed, couldn’t help it. She glanced around, finally paying attention to the scenery flying by, and realized they were leaving the city lights behind them. “Where are we going?”

“We live on a farm just outside the city limits,” Andre explained. “We bought it about five years ago just so we’d have some place to go when we wanted to get away from everything.”

“Oh, okay.”

“You’re safe with us,” Linc said softly. “No one is going to hurt you.”

“Say the word, and I’ll turn around and take you back to the city,” Andre added.

“No.” She shook her head. “If I didn’t want to be here, then I wouldn’t be. I trust I’ll be okay.”

“The offer still stands. If you change your mind at any point, just say the word, and we’ll take you back. No questions.” It was Diego who added this on.

“Thanks.” She took a deep breath. “But I want this.” She nodded her head, not sure if she was trying to reassure them or her.

“In that case, why don’t we get comfortable?” Linc said and leaned over toward her. His fingers touched the top button of her shirt and slipped it free.

He was undressing her in the truck while they were still driving. They could get pulled over. How would she explain being half-dressed in a truck with three men?

Linc bent down and traced his tongue over the swell of her breast as it was revealed. All thought left. She moaned and slid one hand up to wrap in his lush blond locks.

His tongue dipped down and teased over her nipple. She panted and arched, trying to lift her breast up to him, wanting his tongue on her nipple. She felt a tug on her arm and only then realized her shirt was completely undone, and Linc was pushing it off her shoulders. He moved out of the way, and she leaned forward to let him pull the shirt off her arms.

Diego was there waiting and took her mouth in a passionate kiss. He forced his tongue between her lips and invaded her mouth, exploring every facet of it. He sucked greedily at her tongue, and she felt it all the way down to her clit. She was wiggling her hips in search of release, her arms still pinned behind her.

Linc pulled her back from Diego. He had unsnapped her bra and pulled it down her arms. He stopped when it was on her wrists and did something with it before pulling it and her arms with it into the air. He slipped it over a hook along the side that was meant for hanging things. She was pretty sure it wasn’t meant for this though.

Linc had cuffed her with the bra and now had her helpless and on display for the two men in the front seat. One by one he pulled the pins from her hair and let it fall around her.

“Fuck,” Andre groaned as he glanced at her in the rearview mirror.

“Madre de Dios,” Diego muttered.

“Look at those plump berries.” Linc invited, running his fingers over her nipples. Each touch had them growing harder, aching for more.

Diego reached back and took a handful of her hair between his fingers.

“It’s like a sunset,” he whispered.

He let it drop, and it fell back, covering her breast, so only the hard tip of her nipple peeked through.

“Are we close?” Linc asked.

With his focus solely on her, Ashley almost nodded. She was very close to coming.

“Turn off is just another mile up the road,” Andre answered. So Linc meant to the farmhouse and not how close she was to orgasm.

“Good,” Linc murmured as he shifted beside her.

The shoulder strap of her seat belt had been slipped behind her when he removed her shirt, but she was still belted at the waist. Linc moved his fingers down to the top button of her jeans. “When we get there, I’m going to take these off and gorge myself on that sweet pussy of yours. But for now, I’ll have to sate myself on these.”
