ROMANCE: The Bad Boy Meeting

by Kevin, Amanda

  Eddie shook his head. “Nope, let me help. That’s what I’m here for.” He walked over and stole a quick kiss from Heidi. “Good to see you, honey. Hope you made lots of food, ‘cause we’re starving.”

  “I did. Go on and take care of your horses, I’ll go make sure everything is done.” Heidi smiled as she watched them disappear into the barn together.

  Satisfied and glad they were home, she went to check the stove, pulling out some of the leftovers from the day before and adding it to the mix. Ethan and Eddie came into the mudroom and she could hear them cleaning up a bit before they came in to eat. It made her happy to see them getting along so well; it was everything she hoped. Her mind flitted to the fantasy of the night before but she shook her head. Fantasies were one thing, these were the men she was taking care of.

  Soon enough they were all sitting down to eat. “Ethan was right,” said Eddie, “Some of the fences had been washed away. We took care of it.”

  “I’ll give Eddie this much,” said Ethan. “He never does anything half-assed.”

  Heidi chuckled. “I know. It’s one of the things I’ve always liked about him. Good hard worker and takes pride in what he does.”

  “That’s a good part of why I hired him,” said Ethan. “I needed someone like that to help me out. I can always teach someone the work, but if they aren’t willing to learn and willing to do their best, then there isn’t any point to it.”

  Eddie smiled and looked at the two of them. “Thanks,” he said, squeezing Heidi’s hand under the table. “And dinner is delicious. I hope it wasn’t too bad, being here by yourself last night.”

  “Naw. I was starting to get a bit worried this afternoon, but I knew you two would be fine.”

  “If I’m going to be longer than a day or two, I’ll always, tell you,” promised Ethan. “And you know I’ll take care of Eddie here. And he’ll take care of me.”

  “Thanks,” said Eddie again, and went back to eating big bites of his food.

  After supper they all settled in the living room to watch television. Heidi leaned against Eddie as Ethan channel surfed and drank a beer. She noticed they shared a look, but neither of them spoke. After a while Eddie yawned and announced he was going to take a hot shower and go to bed.

  “I’ll go with you,” said Heidi. They shared a look again, but nothing was said as they headed upstairs.

  While Eddie took a shower, Heidi lay in bed with a book, waiting for him to finish so they other shoe could drop. There didn’t seem to be anything wrong, but clearly something was up.

  Finally the shower shut off and Eddie appeared a few minutes later, freshly shaven and with a towel around his waist.

  “Mm, yeah you’re getting the opposite of plump,” smiled Heidi, admiring him.

  Eddie chuckled and came to her, pushing her back on the bed and kissing her deeply. “I got a question for you,” he said. “Ethan and I were talking while we were out.”

  Heidi’s heart beat faster. “Yeah? He giving you a raise?”

  Eddie chuckled. “Not quite. I know you’ve been checking him out. So does he.”

  Heidi blushed and pulled away. “Do you want me to go?” she asked. “Is it going to make a prob...” She was cut off by Eddie putting a hand over her mouth.

  “Answer me this honestly, Heidi. Do you want to sleep with him?”

  Heidi met his eyes. He really did want the truth. She knew that look. Biting her lip, she nodded. Eddie took his hand away and she rushed to explain. “It’s not that I don’t love you, Eddie. Or want you. I want you both.”

  Eddie smiled. That was the last reaction she expected and found herself staring at him.

  “It’s okay,” he said, picking up her hand.

  “Really? I thought you’d be upset.”

  “You’re a gorgeous woman with a healthy sex drive. I’m not upset. In fact, Ethan and I were talking and we’d like to give it to you. Both of us.”

  Heidi’s mouth went dry and she licked her lips. “Seriously? You both want to sleep with me? At the same time?”

  “Well, I’d be more comfortable if I was there. I’m sure you understand.” Eddie was still holding her hand.

  “Oh, I do. I wouldn’t want to do it without you.” Heidi leaned in and kissed him. “I....was thinking about it last night,” she admitted.

  “Were you?” Eddie lay her back on the bed and squeezed a breast.

  “Yeah. Both of you. With me. I didn’t think it would ever come true though. It was just a fantasy.”

  “But you do want it. I know you do.” Eddie kissed her again.

  Heidi nodded. “When?”

  “Soon,” smiled Eddie. “Not tonight though, honey, I’m exhausted.”

  Smiling, Heidi pulled him close to her. “I understand. Thank you, though, really. I mean, I never wanted to hurt your feelings.”

  “You aren’t. Like I said, you’re a healthy young woman. I’d probably be more worried if you weren’t attracted to the handsome cowboy.” Eddie chuckled and kissed her, cuddling against her and falling asleep.

  Heidi lay awake for a while. She could hear Ethan go to bed not long after Eddie started snoring. Well, this would make the next few days interesting at least; to see how things changed after they all shared a bed. It was exciting.

  **

  The next day Heidi got them breakfast like usual and they headed out for their rounds. “Cowboy’s work is never done,” smiled Eddie with a wink.

  Heidi sent him off and watched as they went over the ridge. Maybe tonight would be the night. She fairly buzzed with excitement, though Ethan hadn’t said anything. The whole day she kept thinking about it, wondering if the reality would match her fantasy and hoping it would. Eddie really was a good man not to feel threatened by Ethan and even willing to share her. But not in any way that made her feel like an object.

  It was one of the things she’d always loved about him.

  They got back late, covered in mud again. Ethan said they were still working on the damage from the storm. Heidi understood and made sure they had plenty of good, warm food. That night she went to bed with Eddie like usual, listening to a late rainstorm hit the room, suddenly more ticked off with rain then she’d ever been. But they’d have their chance, she knew that.

  At least the next day she wasn’t buzzing quite so much and more able to focus on the tasks at hand. The house was clean and the horses taken care of by the time her cowboys got back. They thanked her for dinner like usual and ate quietly.

  When they finished eating, Eddie and Ethan shared a look. “Go on,” said Eddie, “I’ll be along in a minute.”

  Heidi’s heart raced as Ethan took her hand. “I take it Eddie talked to you?”

  “Yeah. Both of you, right?”

  “If that’s okay with you. You really are a gorgeous woman, Heidi.” He leaned in to kiss her gently with Eddie watching. His lips were more chapped than Eddie’s, but he certainly wasn’t a bad kisser. She had a feeling she might be in over her head.

  Eddie gave her an encouraging smile and Ethan took her hand, leading her towards his room. “I’ve got the bigger bed,” he said quietly, bringing her inside and kissing her again, running a rough hand down her arm. “You really okay with this?” he asked.

  “Very much so. I’ve been imagining this.”

  Ethan smiled . “Eddie told me you’re on birth control. Do I need a condom anyway? I haven’t been with anyone in a long time.”

  “No, I think you’re okay. I trust you, Ethan. And I know you talked about all of this with Eddie.” Heidi smiled back.

  “Just have to double check. That’s the polite thing, after all.” He leaned in to kiss her one more time.

  With a soft noise of pleasure, Heidi stepped back and pulled her shirt over her head. Eddie appeared in the doorway, smiling as he watched her strip down to bra and panties and climb into the bed. Ethan was next, undressing himself slowly for Heidi’s benefit and climbing in after her.

  Heidi kissed Ethan again, hands runni
ng down his sides. She felt the bed dip as Eddie joined them. Ethan broke the kiss to fondle her breasts through her bra and begin to kiss down her body, taking the time to pay attention to her covered nipples for a few long moments before heading lower. He hesitated at her underwear, looking up Heidi’s body.

  “Go ahead,” said Heidi, feeling Eddie nod behind her. Eddie took off her bra as as Ethan slipped her underwear from her hips, gently gliding it down her legs and off before parting her thighs. He leaned in to her soft curls and Heidi moaned at the feel of his hot breath.

  “You’re gorgeous,” said Eddie in her ear, rolling her nipples just the way she liked it. “And I know how much you like it.” He kissed her ear and watched as Ethan started to lap at her pussy.

  Eddie gave him some directions and Heidi’s eyes closed as she leaned against him, moaning softly. Now it was Eddie teaching Ethan, instead of the other way around. Ethan was a fast learner and he groaned against her as he sought to please her.

  “I think we should both take you,” said Eddie. “You got lube, Ethan?”

  Ethan nodded and raised his head, digging in his bedside drawer for a minute until he found a bottle and tossed it to him. Heidi licked her lips as Eddie’s fingers started toying with her ass.

  Heidi moaned again. “Yeah,” she said, rocking against Eddie’s fingers.

  Ethan knelt back to watch, fingering her pussy at the same time. She groaned and moved between the two of them. “You’re beautiful,” he said again.

  “I want you both,” said Heidi, turning her head to kiss Eddie.

  Eddie kissed her back, then Ethan swept in for a kiss of his own, slipping his tongue into her mouth. She kissed him back, but Ethan pulled away as Eddie shifted her. Eddie sat against the headboard and pulled Heidi into his lap. Ethan helped guide her onto Eddie’s cock. He took his time, going slow.

  Heidi moaned, loving the way he was feeling in her ass, the care they were both taking. Eddie moved slowly, giving her time to adjust to it. Finally she was fully seated and relaxed around him. When she was certain, she opened her eyes and looked at Ethan. “More.”

  Ethan grinned and leaned in to kiss her again. “Demanding, aren’t you?”

  “You don’t know the half of it,” said Eddie, holding her thighs to help Ethan out. They both groaned as he started pushing inside.

  Heidi was already dizzy from the sensations. She’d never been with two men at once before, but this was amazing. She could smell them both, Ethan’s scent more rugged and Eddie’s softer. Both of them had their hands on her and she could tell the difference, even with her eyes closed. And they started moving in tandem, making her moan as they held her securely.

  “I’m glad you like this, baby,” said Eddie in her ear. “You feel so tight around me. I can’t wait to feel you come.” He dropped his head and kissed her neck slowly sucking a hickey into her shoulder.

  Ethan kissed her lips again, licking into her mouth, tasting her as he moved steadily against her. She felt so full. It was amazing. They both shifted and she moaned again, feeling herself getting close already. They were clearly waiting for her, taking their time, making sure she had all the pleasure she needed from the two of them.

  Moving faster, Ethan kissed her deeper, fingers on her breasts, touching her skin. Eddie’s hands were on her waist, helping keep her in place. She could feel the pleasure building inside of her. “Oh, yes.”

  “You gonna come for us, baby?” asked Eddie, moving faster himself.

  Heidi nodded, reaching back to wrap her arms around Eddie’s neck. “She’s close,” he said to Ethan. “Just a little bit more.”

  Ethan redoubled his efforts, panting hotly. With a groan he came suddenly, sending Heidi over as well, then Eddie.

  Heidi shook as she lay between them, small cries of pleasure still falling from her lips as Ethan fucked her through her orgasm. He leaned in to kiss her one more time, then pulled out, helping her off of Eddie’s lap. Heidi lay on her side, breathing heavily.

  “You okay?” asked Eddie, moving to lay facing her, taking her hands and kissing her deeply.

  Heidi opened her eyes and smiled at him. “Yeah. Not quite what I fantasized, but I think that was better.”

  He chuckled. “Good. You’re so beautiful.”

  Heidi smiled at him, feeling Ethan curling up behind her and kissing her throat. “This okay?” he asked Eddie.

  “Hey, we’re in your bed. I’m not going to kick you out.”

  “Fair enough, just thought I’d check. We never discussed post-coital cuddling.”

  “Heidi likes it. Says it makes her feel safe. Don’t you?”

  Heidi nodded and snuggled in between them. Ethan stroked her side. “Well, I’m not going to argue with that. Or complain about a few more minutes with you two.”

  Still smiling softly, Heidi fell asleep quickly, the sounds of both of them breathing comforting. Eddie’s hands stayed tangled in her own, Ethan’s hand rested on her hip.

  **

  Heidi woke to the morning light streaming through the window. It was different than the light in her and Eddie’s room; different side of the house. She leaned in and kissed Eddie, still snoring softly like he did. Ethan was gone. She got up and went down to her own room to take a shower, then dressed and went downstairs. Ethan was going over some paperwork and sipping on his coffee. Heidi got her own mug.

  “Was last night okay?” she asked, watching him.

  “I enjoyed it. Not opposed to doing it again, if you’d like to.” Ethan met her eyes. “Eddie snores.”

  Heidi chuckled. “He does. Guess now you know why you found me down by the pond that night.”

  “Are you two talking about my snoring?” asked Eddie, appearing in the kitchen doorway.

  “It’s cute,” said Heidi.

  “Bullshit. Nobody’s snores are cute. Well, maybe a puppies.”

  Heidi laughed. “You’re the last one up, you make breakfast.”

  “Long as you left me some coffee.” Eddie leaned in to kiss her and went to fix something.

  Ethan watched them. “You two really are great together.”

  “Well, I’m okay with you being part of it too. Last night doesn’t have to be a one night only thing, as far as I’m concerned.” Heidi sipped her coffee.

  “All three of us can discuss it, but I wouldn’t be opposed. I’m glad I hired Eddie. This wasn’t what I planned when I told him it was fine to bring you along, but I’m certainly not complaining.”

  “As long as you keep those paychecks coming,” teased Heidi.

  “They paychecks will keep coming as long as you keep those excellent dinners coming. I’ve been eating better the last few weeks than I have in probably months.”

  “Sounds like a deal to me,” said Heidi.

  Eddie came back in a few moments with plates for everyone and sat next to Heidi, giving her another kiss. “What’s the plan for today?” he asked Ethan.

  Heidi listened as they talked about what needed to happen next out on the ranch and what animals needed tending, what projects needed completing. It seemed like years since they’d come up the drive, nowhere near the length it actually had been. Already she couldn’t imagine any other life than this, and she luckily, she didn’t have to.

  The ranch was home. Eddie and Ethan were home. They’d all take care of each other and that was the way it should be. She gathered the dirty dishes and went to wash up, already anticipating the next time the three of them might find their way to bed together.

  THE WOLF’S TABOO BABY

  By Rachel S. William

  Chapter 1

  Kandra and Robert seemed to have it all. They were two wolf shapeshifters that were madly in love after a mutual friend introduced them to one another. Kandra was tall, well endowed; but thin with long, flowing blonde hair. Robert was a tall muscular man with dark eyes and dark hair that was always dressed to kill with expensive Armani suits. Robert had just taken control of the law firm that he had worked for ten years; and Kandra
had just opened a school that was beginning to gain a good reputation and bring in decent money. They were well thought of in the wolf shapeshifter community there as well. The only problem was, they had been married for two years; and had tried over and over again to get pregnant; to no avail. First, they began to go to doctors to find out what the problem was. Kandra went to visit the doctor; and he ran several test over a series of weeks until he finally came up with the reason.

  Dr. Kemmons called Kandra and Robert into his office to tell them the news in person and explain Kandra’s situation.
