His hard cock pulsed against her lower lips. She moved trying to place his crown at her opening. “Take me,” she demanded.
“Oh, no. Not before I taste your exquisite juice.” Bern slid down and exposed her jewel. His tongue licked across the sensitive spot, and a jolt of desire sizzled throughout her body.
Then Bern sucked on her clit and licked her juice all the way to her pussy opening. His tongue flicked inside. She moaned as her yearning to have his cock inside her pussy heightened.
Her body beat to the tune of a melody that he had created. She wanted him with her whole being. A burning thread of need had her pussy vibrating with passion.
Bern raised over her and his sheathed cock thrust in all the way. Her inner walls clamped around him.
“Damn, sweetheart, a jolt of pleasure almost shot my head off.” He waited a second before he pulled out and slid back in. Each time he moved harder and faster. She met his every stroke and her blood boiled with the heat from his movements.
She raised her hips and took him in further. A wave of delight swept from her toes to the top of her head. “I love you,” she whispered in his ear as the wave swallowed her up.
He pounded in and out, and then he stiffened and threw his head back as his orgasm gripped him. When he could move, he put his forehead against hers.
“Wow.” His arms trembled and his eyes glinted silver. He rolled off of her, but held her close to his side. They lay wrapped in each other’s arms until their hearts stopped pounding and their breaths slowed.
Bern squinted at the sky. “I think from where the sun is now that we’d better ride back. Lann will be disappointed if we’re late.”
“I have to go to town and change.”
“I’ll shower and dress. Afterward, I’ll drive you to your place and wait.” Bern kissed her mouth. “Thank you for loving me, and for accepting our proposal. You’ll never be sorry.”
“I know I won’t.”
“Don’t look at me like that, or we’ll be back rolling around on the ground,” Bern said.
Bliss laughed. “I guess you’re right.” They dressed and she walked to her horse and swung into the saddle. “We will come here again.”
“You bet, often.”
Bern led the way out of the trees, and they rode side by side to his house.
* * * *
When they arrived for dinner, Lann had turned the lights on to greet them. “Come in. Did you two have a good day?”
“It was lovely. The best part took place on the porch when you both asked me to marry you, but the afternoon was very special, too.” Bliss smiled at Bern.
“We have a special cook tonight. You’ll have to let me know how you like the food. It’s ready. We’ll talk wedding plans at the table.” Lann led the way to the dining room.
The table was set with fine china and crystal. The chandelier sparkled, giving a festive atmosphere to the occasion.
Lann pulled the chair at the end of the table out for Bliss. “This is the only way we can both sit beside you. You are the guest of honor.”
“I didn’t expect such an elaborate dinner. I’m glad I decided to wear my black dress and fancy shoes.”
He leaned down and brushed his lips across her exposed neck. “I like the low neckline and the short skirt.”
“And those spike heels show her legs to perfection,” Bern added.
“Stop, you two. You’ll have me blushing from all the compliments.”
A bell tinkled, and a tall, beautiful blonde stepped out of the kitchen. She wore a dark-blue dress with an apron over it. It was the woman who had waved to them from the guest house.
“She’s your cook?” Bliss asked. She didn’t think she liked the idea of this gorgeous woman cooking for either of her men.
“Actually, she’s a gourmet cook.”
“Hi, I’m Cameo Jordan. I cook in Philadelphia. Mainly, I do private parties. I can’t sit around and do nothing while I’m waiting for my life to be normal again. I cooked this meal as a thank-you to Lann and Bern.” She gave each of them a big smile.
“Cameo, this is Bliss Meades,” Lann introduced her, but he didn’t say she was his fiancée.
Cameo set a platter of roast on the table and came back with a bowl of creamed new potatoes and another with asparagus. “The sauce on the asparagus is a specialty of mine. Let me know how you like it.”
She placed a smaller plate with a tossed salad and another special sauce to the side of their dinner plates. Lann poured a red wine in their glasses, and after Cameo had returned to the kitchen, he raised his glass.
“To us. May we have many happy years together.”
“I’ll drink to that,” Bern said.
Bliss joined them and drank the toast. Cameo came back carrying her purse. “I’ve left the dessert in the refrigerator. I’m leaving so you can enjoy your evening. Good night.”
Lann walked her to the door. Bliss heard him thanking her and promising to see her tomorrow.
When he returned to the table, she gave him a hard look. “You didn’t introduce me as your fiancée.”
“No. I’d rather outsiders not know our business. Saddlespurs doesn’t announce there are a number of threesomes living in the area.”
Bern nodded in agreement. “The last thing we need is nosy reporters putting our town in the news. Since the women only marry one man officially, there isn’t a problem with being charged with bigamy. Still, we don’t need to ask for trouble or notoriety.”
“Which brings up one of the subjects regarding our marriage. If you agree, Bern will marry you in front of friends and family at his ranch. I’ll be the best man. But I’d like for us to also marry according to my people’s custom.”
“What does that entail?” Bliss asked.
Lann told her about the place for the wedding, the special dress, and how the Priestess conducted the ceremony. She’s agreed to marry us, but she suggested I build a gazebo on the ranch here in Texas. I knew the spot where I wanted it, and some of my men worked on the construction while I was gone. They’ve finished it. What do you think of the idea?”
“Sara and Morgan mentioned the wedding ritual while you men were talking after lunch. They said they’d been touched by the occasion. I’d like for us to do that, but will Bern be included?”
“Yes. Elle said if I trusted him enough to marry you with him, she’d trust him, too. We don’t have very many outsiders attending or in the ceremony. Still, there have been exceptions, and with some of our men living in Texas now, Elle expects to be using the gazebo more than once.”
“How did you decide on Bern to be my husband by law?”
Lann nodded at Bern. “He found you and has waited a long time to marry you. It only seemed fair. But understand when you marry me by my tribe’s custom, I see our marriage just as binding as the other, even if the law doesn’t.”
“Would you prefer Lann to be the one to marry you officially?” Bern asked. His gray eyes had darkened. Bliss noted his concern.
“No. I only wondered how the decision was made. I didn’t want Lann to resent you or feel left out. I’m quite agreeable to what you two decided. I wouldn’t have wanted to make the choice.”
“Sweetheart, we have no jealousy between us or this wouldn’t work,” Bern said and Lann nodded in agreement.
“I know, but it’s new to me. I’ve been kept close at home by my parents and my brother. Even though I’ve seen threesomes in town and spoken to them, I never had the opportunity to get to know them and see how the relationship worked.
“It was nice to meet your friends and family in Wyoming and to see how happy they all are in their threesome marriages.”
“Elle marries all of us. She has a license in Wyoming to make it official for the initial couple. But they also have the other ceremony for all three. She isn’t licensed in Texas to do the official ceremony.”
Bern spoke up, “I have a friend who can marry us at my ranch.”
“You two have this all planned.”
“Do you mind that we went ahead and started making arrangements?”
“No. But what would you have done if I said no to your proposal?”
“I’d have tied you to my wrist until you agreed,” Lann said.
“You wouldn’t have.”
“I don’t know. It was tempting and sounded like fun. When can we get married? Give us a date.”
“My grand opening for the shop is in two weeks. If we want to have time for a honeymoon, it had better take place this next weekend. How about Saturday?”
“Great. I called my mom and my sisters while you two were gone. They’ll arrive in a few days. Mom wants to see my house and make sure it’s in order for the special occasion. I need your measurements and shoe size to send our seamstresses. They’ll make your dress and have it and the shoes ready for our wedding.
“We can measure you. I have a tape measure and it would be great fun. Come to my bedroom.” Lann took her hand and Bern followed with a smile on his face as they climbed the stairs.
“Start undressing her. I’ll find the tape,” Lann said.
“My pleasure.” Bern’s deep voice warmed her insides. “This is easy.” He unzipped the back of her dress and had her step out of it. Then he laid it across a chair.
Bliss slipped off her shoes and her feet sank into the thick, soft green carpet. Bern unsnapped her bra and placed it by her dress. All that was left were her black-lace panties.
He held her hands and stepped back to look at her. “You are so beautiful.” He reached out and brushed his fingers through her hair. His other hand touched her face and stroked along her neck.
When he spoke, his voice was husky. “I’ve waited so long for you. I can hardly believe we’re going to marry, and I’ll have you by my side forever.” He stared steadily into her eyes. “Are you certain you’re happy with our arrangements?”
“Absolutely.” Bliss took two steps and was inside the circle of his arms. She kissed his firm mouth and nibbled at his strong jaw. Then she started to unbutton his shirt.
She was sure. The heaviness she often had in her chest when living with her brother had gone and been replaced by a lightness. Her muscles had relaxed, and a sense of calm and ease filled her.
She had trouble containing her joy. At times, she wanted to skip, and laugh, and whirl around. After she took Bern’s shirt off and threw it on the bed, she rubbed her breasts against the soft hairs on his wide chest.
“You two have started without me.” Lann came through the door. “It took me a few minutes to find this tape measure.”
When Bliss turned to face him, he stopped walking and stared. “I’m speechless.”
Bern and Bliss laughed. Bern said, “Do the measurements so we can make love to our lady.”
“Yes, sir.” Lann put the tape around her bust, waist, and hips. Then he scribbled them down on a piece of paper. “I’ll e-mail them and your shoe size to Mom.” He unsnapped his cowboy shirt and quickly removed the rest of his clothes. Then he lifted Bliss onto his king-size bed.
Lann lay on her, but kept most of his weight off of her with his arms. “Did you miss me, darlin’?”
“Perhaps.”
“What do you mean, perhaps?”
“If I told you how much, you’d get a bigger, swelled head,” she teased.
In retaliation, Lann found all her ticklish spots and had her laughing and begging for mercy.
“How much did you miss me?”
“Tons, the days were hours longer than usual.”
“That’s better.” Lann grinned down at her. His fingers trailed across her lips and she bit his thumb. He rolled and Bern put his warm body against her backside.
Bern kissed the back of her neck while Lann moved downward to kiss and suck on her beautiful breasts. Her nipples tightened and he grazed his teeth across them. Her body hummed from their attention.
She reached down and wrapped her hand around Lann’s hard cock. It jerked in her hand.
“Ah, darlin’, your touch sets me on fire,” Lann whispered in her ear and bit her earlobe.
Meanwhile, Bern kissed all along her backbone and across her buttocks. Fluid flowed from her pussy. He slipped his hand between her legs and rubbed her pearl.
Bliss’s body shook with an insatiable craving for her two men. Lann sucked on her breast and pinched her nipple. A spark in her abdomen flared into a roaring heat that sizzled in her veins. The dual bombardment from their touching and kissing had her ready to explode.
She tightened her hand around Lann’s cock. “I need you in me, right now.”
Bern had moved further downward and kissed the back of her legs, and then massaged her feet. Her breath came fast and furious, and her heart pounded against her chest wall.
Her lower lips were wet with her juices, and her pussy ached for attention. She moved her hand up and down Lann’s cock as much as she could from her position. He groaned, giving her a sense of satisfaction.
She stiffened as a wave of pleasure started in her feet, rolled up her legs and across her body. When she bucked, Bern moved. Lann laid her flat and spread her legs. Then he plunged into her pussy.
* * * *
Her pussy was wet and hot. His cock loved the feel of her pussy walls clamping around him. She screamed as her orgasm shook her body, and her pussy rippled around his dick.
Lann continued to move in and out fast. He tipped her hips and slid in further. She met his every stroke with gusto. Her arms and legs wrapped around him and there was only her and him soaring upward until his cock exploded with his orgasm. Her pussy pulsed against his dick, draining him dry.
“It’s a good thing we’re getting married in a week. I didn’t use a condom.”
“It isn’t needed anymore unless you two want to wait on having children.” Bliss glanced over at Bern.
They both smiled. “We’re ready,” Bern said. “But are you? You have your shop just opening.”
“I’ll hire help in the next few months if all goes well.”
“Then no worries,” Lann said.
* * * *
Later that night, Bliss woke to find Bern sitting in a chair staring out the window. She moved carefully so she didn’t wake Lann, and tiptoed across the carpet to Bern’s side.
“Are you all right?” she asked.
“Very.” He pulled her onto his lap.
“Then why are you sitting here alone staring out the window?”
“I’ve told you how I can’t sleep sometimes because of bad memories, but tonight I can’t sleep because of being so happy. I’m sitting here thinking about every time I’ve seen you or been with you. My heart is full of joy. That hasn’t happened since I was young.”
Bliss put her arms around him and cuddled into his body.
“I’m glad. I feel the same way only I don’t have many real happy moments from my childhood. These are the best.”
Bern cradled her head against his shoulder. “Go to sleep, little one. You’ll need the rest. The next week will go by very fast. There’s lots to be done.”
* * * *
Bern could tell from her breathing when she fell asleep. Her warm body lay relaxed against his hard frame. Her total acceptance of him was truly a great gift. She didn’t even seem to see his scars anymore and never had paid much attention to them. But he had deeper internal scars, and her love had already began to heal them.
His arms tightened around her body and she stirred, kissed his chest and fell back to sleep.
Ah, my darling, I hope I can be worthy of such a love. He’d never been a man to show much emotion, but he blinked his eyes and swallowed around a lump in his throat.
He got up and carried her to bed, and then he gently placed her in the middle. Bern got in bed and pulled her close. Her arms and legs immediately wrapped around his body.
“Sleep, sweetheart. No one will ever harm you with me or Lann around.”
She sighed as though she heard him, and slept on.
Chapter Seventeen
/>
The next week had flown by. Lann’s mother and sisters arrived on Wednesday and brought Bliss’s dress to try on. The color was a light purple that matched her eyes almost perfectly.
“It looks beautiful on you with your eyes and black hair,” Lann’s mother said. His sisters nodded.
“I love it, and it’s a perfect fit.” Bliss turned all around in front of the mirror.
“I like Lann’s house.” His mother smiled at Bliss. “Is there anything you want to change?”
“No. I like it, too. The ladies who decorated the house did a great job, and the colors are ones I like. I almost wish there was something I had to change.”
“To make it seem more like yours.” His mother nodded. “I understand.”
“Don’t get me wrong. I’m very lucky, and I know it. I’ll be happy here or at Bern’s house when we occasionally go over there.”
“Let’s walk to the gazebo and get some fresh air.” His mother took Bliss’s arm and gave her daughters a look that told them not to come along.
She didn’t say much to Bliss until they got to where the gazebo had been built. “It’s a lovely spot.”
Bliss glanced around. Trees surrounded three sides of the pavilion and the open side faced the east. A short distance away she saw a stream gleaming blue. Further on, the land became hilly. It was a quiet, isolated spot.
“I agree. Lann said Elle will bless this area each time she comes, but in between we can enjoy using the gazebo.”
“Sit,” his mother instructed. There were chairs already arranged for the ceremony which they’d decided to move up to Friday.
“I’m glad we have this opportunity to speak alone. I was leery at first. Lann had never shown any particular interest in our women and this happened so fast. He’d always been all business and worried about our tribe.” She took a deep breath. “But now I find him smiling, joking, and love shining in his eyes. He’s a different man. He and Bern are like brothers, and if I think back, I remember noticing small changes when he’d return from his vacation trips. He held this side of himself back while he did his duty for his tribe. Since meeting you the transformation is even more noticeable. I’m happy for him, and you and Bern. I worried he was too serious.”
