Sidney’s Triple Shot [Apache Crossing] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) (5 page)

“No shit? Bare-ass naked?” Noah stared across the kitchen island at his older brother in blatant disbelief.

“Yep, not a stitch on. She was showering in the back bathroom at the bar. It was nearly three in the morning, and she said she figured no one would ever know.” Tyce stood in the kitchen nursing a cup of coffee as he told his brothers about his encounter with Sidney Rowe.

“Damn. Wish I would have been the one to find her. That girl has one hell of a body on her. So what did you say? Fuck, what did
she
say?” Noah shifted on his feet, adjusting his half-hard dick in his boxer briefs.

Sidney had consumed his mind ever since the second he first got a glimpse of her. He couldn’t shake the picture of her sitting across the table from him, looking scared out of her mind and giving him as little information about herself as she could. He had tried to pry a bit, but when she started to close down, he decided to just give her the job and work on getting the answers later. He just couldn’t stand the thought of her walking out of the bar, and never seeing her again.

But working with her every night since, her gorgeous body barely covered by the tiny bar uniform, he had had to force himself not to touch her. Now, after hearing that his brother saw her dripping wet and naked, jealousy streaked through him. He wanted to pound his dick into her softness more than he wanted to breathe, but he wanted so much more from her than just fucking.

He had gotten to know her personality some as he worked with her. The skittish, quiet woman that asked him for a job, was really fiery, flirty, and as kindhearted as they came. She was quick to laugh, and she knew how to take a joke. She got along perfectly with the other two women who worked the bar, Anna and Kara. Efficiency was her middle name, and he suspected that she was way overqualified for the job. He couldn’t quite pinpoint what it was about her that drove him nuts. He didn’t just want her body, and that scared him. He couldn’t remember a time in all of his thirty years that he had ever wanted a woman for more than a casual affair, but with Sidney it was different.

Glaring at Tyce, he was surprised to find that he wasn’t turned off by the idea of Tyce having her. It was the idea that Noah wouldn’t have her that bugged him. It actually made his cock throb, imagining her with his brother. He could picture sliding his cock into her sweet mouth while Tyce fucked her from behind. That had definite possibilities for jack-off fantasies later. Shaking himself mentally, he returned his attention to his older brother.

“She said her water heater is busted, and she needed a shower. Otherwise she didn’t say much…until after she almost came riding my thigh while I was sucking on her luscious tits.” Tyce looked pleased with himself as he grinned at Xavier and Noah.

“Please tell me you did not fuck our bartender.” Xavier frowned at Tyce. Noah was surprised to see lust on his oldest brother’s face, too. Apparently, all three of them were interested in Sidney. Well, isn’t that just the shit, he thought to himself.
This whole thing is about to get messier.
Noah wasn’t about to give her up to either one of them, and hell, it wasn’t like they hadn’t shared a woman before.

“Nah. She didn’t let me get that far. Man, I couldn’t help myself. When she came out of the bathroom finally, she looked like she was scared of me, so I pulled her up into a hug, and the next thing I knew we were all over each other. She tastes fucking amazing.” Tyce plopped down onto one of the barstools next to the kitchen island, running his fingers through his messy hair. “I’m not sure how I’m going to keep my hands off of her when I see her again.”

It was slightly unnerving for Noah to see Tyce so wrapped up in a woman. Tyce never had woman trouble. Tyce only had boyfriend and husband trouble after he slept with the woman. Noah couldn’t even count how many times his brother had suffered a black eye or a bloody nose after a one-night stand’s significant other found out about him.

“You better keep your hands off of her. I’ve spent some time with her over the last month, and my instinct tells me that she’s a good person, but she’s hiding something. Until we know we can trust her, nobody should be touching her. I don’t like that she would sneak around in the bar after hours without asking first. Something is going on, and I’m going to find out what it is.” Xavier stood and crossed the kitchen to dump his coffee out in the sink.

“Xavier, let’s be clear. I don’t report to you, so don’t treat me like I do. There are sparks between her and me, and I’m going to see where it leads. You didn’t see her eyes and smell her heat. She wanted me, and I want her so much I’m hard as a rock right now thinking about it.” Tyce had the look of a man on a mission, and Noah knew that he wouldn’t back down.

Fear and apprehension crept into Noah’s chest. He felt more chemistry with Sidney than he had ever felt with anyone else. This girl filled a hole in his chest, and he wasn’t willing to just give her up to Tyce. Over the years Tyce had flitted through women, loving and leaving more than Noah could count. Noah had been with his share of ladies, but he preferred to have some sort of emotional connection with them, even if it was only a slight one. Now suddenly Tyce was dead set on having Sidney in his life. Well, he was going to have to share her, or get the hell out of the way.

“Only if I don’t get to her first, asshat,” Noah snapped, glaring across the kitchen at Tyce. “You knew I wanted her when I hired her, and here you are molesting her after hours. You need to leave her alone. She’s actually a good woman, and she deserves a good man. I intend to be that man, so back off.”

“Fuck you, Noah. You don’t get to just stake a claim on Sidney. She isn’t your property. If she wants me, then she can have me. Again, and again, and again…” The vein in Tyce’s temple was throbbing with his anger, but Noah was ready to beat his ass if necessary.

“Both of you shut up. Now, I’ll grant you that she is hot. Damn hot…” Xavier paused to adjust stance before continuing, “But I have never seen you two fighting over a woman. Share one maybe, but not fight each other for one. It isn’t worth it, so cut this shit out.”

Noah and Tyce continued to glare at each other, and the tension was tangible in the room. How were they going to figure out who was going to pursue her and not kill each other?

Xavier huffed at their continued silence. “Noah, you’re on the schedule for the early shift, so get yourself together and get to work. I’m going to go in a little early. I think we need to run a search on her. If she is running from the law, we’re going to have to turn her in. No matter how hot she is. Get that through your heads right now. Tyce, you get some sleep because you are scheduled in at six, and you haven’t even been to bed yet. We will talk about this more later.” Xavier set his cup in the sink and stomped out of the room, not even waiting for his brothers to follow his instructions.

Tyce shot the middle finger at Xavier’s back as he walked away, and Noah rolled his eyes. Leave it to Xavier to be the reasonable one. He was right. They were fighting over her like animals, and at this moment none of them had that right. Well, Noah would have to move faster than his brothers if he wanted to get a taste of the luscious Sidney Rowe. With a small smile on his lips, he headed for the shower so that he could get to work early. If he remembered right, Sidney was on tonight’s schedule, too, and Noah was determined to get her attention.

* * * *

Xavier felt rattled inside. His own desire for Sidney left him feeling completely off-balance after hearing that Tyce had tasted her. He had been half-hard ever since he first laid eyes on her. She was tall for a woman, and she had the longest fucking legs he had ever seen, and he had always been a leg man.

Their first meeting, he almost came in his jeans like a high-school kid. When he found her fumbling to reach a bottle of liquor on the shelves, he had had to force himself to take his hands off of her hips and walk away from her. Her soft, fruity scent tormented his dreams lately, but he had planned on getting to know more about her before he made a move.

Usually when he wanted to know more about someone that was reluctant to share, he just had a background search done by one of his military buddies. With Sidney, he found himself delaying his search in the hopes that she would eventually open up to him.

Now that he knew his brothers wanted her, too, he was angry and frustrated. He was eight years older than she was, and he doubted that she would choose his kinky desires over Tyce’s model-like face or Noah who was charming, romantic, and closer to her age. He needed a woman who had a submissive side in the bedroom. He wasn’t a 24/7 Dominant. He craved his lover’s trust. For him it was about them trusting him enough to submit their body to him so that he could make sure that they achieved the most pleasure possible. Unfortunately, his desire to dominate tended to overwhelm some women. Others only seemed to want it for one night of kinky play, and not for a lifetime of passion.

For a moment he let himself imagine that Sidney would be open to exploring the D/s lifestyle. He could picture her on her knees in front of him with her hands cuffed behind her back and his cock shoved deep in her throat. Lust slammed into him hard at the mental imagery, and he groaned out loud. There was no way he could shut down that desire.

He kept telling himself that he wasn’t even sure he was interested in playing nice with the secretive woman. His gut was rarely wrong, and in Sidney’s case, it told him that she was hiding something. He had watched her in the bar, and she constantly kept her back to the wall and avoided working the tables on the floor at all cost. She seemed leery of men when they hit on her, but she was a serious flirt when the big tippers came in. Her eyes darted around her constantly, and any loud noise made her jump. It was such an unusual contrast in personalities that if he hadn’t spent time with her he would have wondered if she was bipolar.

Instead, he just knew that the woman had secrets, and he wanted to know what they were. All he had to do was figure out how to shut out the fact that just being near her made him hard as a post, and he was sure he could get to the bottom of her mysterious behavior.

He thought about what Tyce had said. Sidney was horny and clearly attracted to Tyce. What if Xavier gave her another option and at least let her know that he was interested? What if she actually did choose him? He wanted her smiling at him every day, like she had when he had helped her off of the stool.

His brothers might be a challenge. Even if she chose Xavier, it wouldn’t just erase Tyce’s and Noah’s attraction to her. Thoughts filtered into his brain about how much better it would be to just share her. The three brothers had shared women before, but never for more than a night of sex. They lived in a community that was very open to alternative lifestyles, so they had explored various avenues of pleasure, but the desire to live in a poly relationship was never there for him.

A ménage was how Xavier figured out he was a Dominant in the first place. One of their first nights on leave together while they were in the Marines, a young woman had propositioned Tyce and Xavier. They had taken her back to her place and shared her between them. Later, they had another encounter with her, but this time they included Noah. Xavier found that he wanted to be the one in the director’s chair, even to the point of sitting back and playing voyeur when necessary. It was important to him that he was the one making sure she received what she needed to reach her pleasure, but he also needed her submission to be to him first, in order to receive the most pleasure himself.

The idea of sharing Sidney probably should have turned him off, but instead his cock grew even harder as he stood under the tepid water of the shower. He could picture her tied spread-eagle on his bed with Tyce’s cock fucking her mouth while Noah pounded her pussy.

He could almost feel her long legs wrapped around his hips. Tyce would slide into her tight little ass, and she would suck off Noah’s cock. The fantasies were endless. He squeezed a blob of conditioner into his grip and began stroking his aching cock. Leaning against the shower wall, he jacked himself off while he imagined thrusting into Sidney’s tight ass himself.

She would beg him to give her release, moaning and writhing under him. Or maybe she wouldn’t, maybe she would be patiently awaiting his pleasure, allowing him to rub his hands over her fleshy ass and up through the wetness between her thighs. She would definitely be wet for him, drenched in her own arousal. He would grip a handful of those gloriously full ass cheeks and then spread them wide so that he could watch his cock as it sank into her. Even if she was a controlled submissive, once she felt him impaling her on his dick, she would moan and press back against him.

He could see himself thrusting in and of her tight sphincter while her body bowed in front of him, until the moment that she screamed his name as her body shuddered to orgasm underneath him.

Xavier cursed as a powerful orgasm hit him, and he shot cum into his own hand. His legs were trembling a little bit while he washed himself off, and he was stunned at how quickly a few fantasies about Sidney Rowe brought him to his knees.

Mentally fortifying his own determination while he dried off, he made the decision to find out everything he could about Sidney Rowe. She would have no secrets from him, and then he was going to convince her that he could help her, so that maybe, just maybe, he could keep her too.

A twinge of irritation rippled through him. It wasn’t like he had a shortage of women to sleep with, but rarely had he met one that made him feel so protective and aroused at the same time. His need to dominate her was overshadowed by his need to hold her and make her happy. He knew in his heart that she was in some sort of trouble, and he wanted to be the one to get her out of it, with or without his brothers’ assistance.
