Michael pulled her in and kissed her lightly on the head. He’d
probably meant it to be a comforting kiss but being snuggled into him felt so
right that the kiss made her breathing catch and her nipples harden against the
lace of her bra. Thankfully he didn’t seem to notice her reaction to him
though. “My gut told me he was a good guy and my gut is never wrong. It’s how I
dig up all the good stories.”

“And here I thought it was luck,” she teased.

“Ouch. That hurts.” But his smile didn’t look all that
pained.

“I’ve missed you,” she admitted reluctantly. “I’ve missed
this.”

He nodded softly as his smile disappeared. “So have I.” He
ran his thumb along her chin and the gentle caress made her shiver with
longing. “Have you made a decision?”

“We really can’t just go back to the way it always was?” Her
tone was hopeful but she already knew the answer in her heart.

“I’m sorry, sweetheart. This has been coming for a long
time.”

In other words, it was time for her put on her big girl
panties and make a choice. Her future in the military was uncertain right now.
She hadn’t followed procedure and that was going to be noted in her debriefing.
But she hadn’t been kicked out. There was still a slight chance they’d let her
stay. And if they did, she had every intention of flying until they forced her
to retire. “You won’t make me choose between you and my ship.”

“Never. I don’t want to change who you are. I love you. All
I want is a promise that your home is with us.”

“Us?” She followed his glance up to Adam. “You two are a
package deal now?” She tried to sound disappointed but her heart was already
beating fast and she’d become wet at the idea.

“I like him.” Michael’s mischievous smile told her that he
more than liked Adam.

“Great. I knew I’d regret bringing him to your place.”

“You don’t regret it. You’ve loved every minute you’ve spent
with us.” He gestured to Adam and he moved over to sit next to them. Now she
was sandwiched between the two men. Memories of the last time she was in this
position raced through her mind and made it difficult for her to breathe. “I
saw you grab his hand in the council’s chambers. You care about him.”

Being surrounded by the men was intoxicating. She was having
a hard time remembering why she shouldn’t rub against them. “So is that what
your gut is telling you?”

“It is.” He brushed a soft kiss against her lips as Adam
nibbled on her ear. The two of them together were more than she could resist.
How long had she been fighting against making any commitments? It’d been so
long that she couldn’t even remember. And she suddenly didn’t know why. She’d
never met two men she respected more. Yes, trust would probably be a bit of an
issue for a while. But they could work through that. She wanted to work through
it with them.

“And your gut is never wrong.” Her voice was already husky
with desire.

“Never.” He kissed down one side of her neck as Adam cupped
her breast in his palm.

“No more lying, though.” That was her one condition and it
was nonnegotiable.

Adam’s breath was hot against her skin as he nuzzled her
ear. “No lies. I promise.” His gentle squeeze of her breast sent a shock wave
of desire through her. She was done denying herself this.

“Okay.” She nodded more for her benefit than for theirs. “I’m
all in.”

She didn’t know how prophetic those words were until the men
stripped her. She had no idea how much longer they were going to be in the
transport but as Michael and Adam started kissing and caressing her body, she
didn’t really care. She could stay like this, between these two men, forever.

“Are you wet for us?” Michael slid his finger through her
slit to check and the touch sent off small explosions deep within her.

“Damn. She’s close.”

“It’s been two days.” She practically growled the words at
them. “And you’ve been sure to let me know how happy you guys have been.”

Adam laughed behind her and the delicious vibrations of
sound rippling across her body made her clench her thighs. “We would’ve been a
lot happier with you.”

“He’s right.” Michael leaned over to kiss her breast and she
whimpered at the swell of heat that the kiss caused.

“We can do foreplay later. I need you inside me.”

“We’re happy to give our girl what she needs.” Michael took
a condom out of his pocket and handed it to Adam.

Adam took the condom but then asked, “You sure?”

“Yeah, I want to watch this time.”

Damn, that was hot. Renee could barely contain herself as
Adam got undressed and put the condom on. She needed to fill the aching,
throbbing hunger deep inside her. As soon as Adam was ready, she straddled his
lap with her back to Adam. If Michael wanted to watch, she’d give him a good
view. Then she slid slowly onto Adam’s cock. He was so hard that she could feel
each inch of him penetrate her until she’d taken all of him inside her then she
flexed her internal muscles around him.

“She’s so wet and tight.” He moaned as she rose almost all
the way off him and then sank back down. “Sorry, sweetheart. I’m too damn close
to the edge.”

With one graceful move, he picked her up and pushed her
forward so her knees were on the floor and her hands rested on the seat that
was in front of them as he took her from behind. She heard the sound of another
condom being opened but she didn’t care enough to turn around. If Michael
wanted a turn with her when Adam was finished, she’d be happy to indulge him.

“That’s a lovely view of your ass, Adam.” The material of
Michael’s pants swished against the leather of the seats as he scooted behind
Adam.

“You want it, you can have it.”

It took a moment for her to understand what was going on but
when Adam slowed to a near stop she quickly figured it out. Michael was going
to fuck Adam while he fucked her. She whimpered at the mental image. Yes, she’d
known what they were most likely doing over the last couple of days but knowing
was different than participating. Knowing was frustrating and had kept her up
at nights plotting her revenge. Participating was hot. She only wished she
could see them.

Adam’s thrusts became faster and more demanding until she
couldn’t think straight. She could only feel. And yet she needed more. Her body
was shaking so hard with the need to climax that she could barely keep herself
in position. As if sensing her problem, Adam grabbed hold of her hips and
thrust into her deeply. Every nerve exploded at the contact and the tightly
wound ball of desire in the pit of her stomach broke into a thousand little
beautiful pieces of bliss.

But he wasn’t done. He continued plunging into her. Each
movement sent another wave of pleasure through her until she was cresting on
another climax. Michael moaned loudly behind Adam as he climaxed. But she still
needed more. She didn’t know how much longer Adam had though. “Please. So
close.”

He changed his angle slightly so he went deeper and hit a
sensitive spot inside her. One more thrust and she was hurled over the brink
into her second release. He gripped her hips tighter and moaned deeply.

“Renee.” Her name was whispered like a caress on her soul
and then he shuddered as he climaxed inside her. This was the way it was
supposed to be. She only wished she had more time in her lovers’ arms.

Unfortunately as soon as the transport stopped, they had to
scramble to get dressed before the automatic doors opened and revealed them to
the people walking by. Though she might be a little voyeuristic, having
strangers see her naked wasn’t her thing. Imagining the looks on people’s
faces, however, did make her smile.

“We should finish this upstairs,” Michael said as he nodded
to the hotel.

She got out of the transport and smiled coyly over her
shoulder at her men. “I don’t know how long you plan on spending in this hotel,
but I can guarantee that it’s not going to be long enough to finish this.”

“Oh, I like the way she thinks.” Adam followed her out of
the transport onto the concrete sidewalk.

“Yeah. Me too.”

Several hours later the chirp of Michael’s reader woke them.
He moaned and tried to reach it but she was in his way. She should probably
roll over and retrieve it for him. It’s what a good partner would do. But she
just lay there and laughed at the thought of her being a good partner.

“Come on, Renee. Give me a hand here.”

Her smile grew broader at his suggestion. “Happy to.” She
ran her hand down his body until her fingertips brushed against his cock.

He moaned but then rolled on top of her so she was pinned
under his weight. “That’s not what I meant.”

“This is way more interesting that whatever happens to be on
that reader.” She wiggled her hips to emphasize her words.

He dropped a series of kisses along her jaw but then reached
over and grabbed his reader. “I don’t doubt that. But I’m a business-first kind
of guy.”

She laughed again. “Some things never change.”

“But some things do.” He stared down at the reader for a
second before turning it to face her. “It’s from Representative Lee. The vote
of no confidence passed. We’re going to have a new prime minister.”

Adam rolled over so he was sandwiched next to them. “So it
made a difference. We made a difference.”

“Looks that way.” Michael laughed and then tickled her. “But
I think taming the great Captain Renee Holt was the greater of the two
accomplishments.”

“If I didn’t love you both, I’d…” She couldn’t finish the
threat. Her mouth was suddenly preoccupied with much more interesting
prospects.

Being from a rather nomadic family, Chandra Ryan loves to
travel and meet people. But she’s found that sometimes, like when you’re stuck
inside because of a good old-fashioned Southwestern heat wave, you have to make
do. Fortunately for her and her loving family, who don’t like seeing her suffer
from cabin fever, she’s found creating new people and places equally as
fascinating. Also, you’re a lot less likely to spill your ice tea.
