Claimed by Three

  She looked back and watched Kassius go into the house. After he disappeared inside, she turned her attention to Berenger and Teague. Maybe she could wheedle a few details from them.

  “What are we doing, and what is the plan for back at the house?” She trailed her hand over Teague’s forearm to catch his attention. They’d make love, but she wanted to know if they planned to fuck her in the grove.

  He laughed softly. “You’ll see what we’re going to do, and as for our plan, you’ll learn once we get back to the house.”

  “What will it hurt to tell me? I can act surprised.” She grinned up at him.

  “You wouldn’t be surprised. Wait, and you’ll see then.” Berenger’s hand landed with a loud smack on her buttocks.

  “Ouch, the smack wasn’t necessary.” She whipped her head around to glare at Berenger.

  “Anytime I can manage it, my hands will be on this delicious ass, baby.” He rubbed her buttocks from top to bottom, where he cupped the curve of one cheek.

  “And we’ll make sure we have the opportunity often,” Teague added. “I like knowing you aren’t wearing anything under this pretty dress.”

  “You didn’t put any underwear on, did you? I know Kassius told you to only wear what we put out for you.” Berenger clasped her hand, bringing her attention to him.

  “Maybe you should find out.” She smiled and batted her lashes in open taunt.

  The air felt deliciously wicked and strange on her pussy and buttocks. She wouldn’t tell any of them that. She felt Teague’s hand on her thigh before he lifted the skirt of her dress. Berenger glanced back and chuckled.

  “I’m not sure if I’m happy you followed our instructions or disappointed because I don’t get to spank you.” Berenger looked forward and guided her into the orchards.

  “I know you would do it for any reason at all.” She leaned into him. “When will Kassius join us?”

  Teague looked over his shoulder. “It won’t be too long. He’ll catch up with us before we get to the spot.”

  “What spot?” She kept her voice deliberately neutral. Hopefully he’d reveal what they were planning, or at least a little about it.

  “The spot we picked to show you.” Berenger’s hand tightened on hers. “Nice try, Sephanie.”

  “It was, but it didn’t work.” She shrugged. She’d always liked holding a secret much better than having a surprise sprung on her.

  “I see a lot of fun ahead of us.” Berenger rubbed his hands together.

  She rolled her eyes. Talking and playing this way was great. She hadn’t expected to be so at ease with them yet. Or so close. She felt closer to them than she could remember feeling to any of her past lovers.

  “No, what’s in front of us is a lot of trees and some bushes in rows.” She grinned over at him.

  “Yes, those are there, but you can bet I’m going to enjoy teasing you about surprises and plans in the future. I’ll have fun watching you try to fish for more information.” Berenger leaned close and brushed his lips across her cheeks.

  She wasn’t above searching a house and finding a hidden present. She wouldn’t tell him. He’d have to discover that. She didn’t search as a rule, but if someone teased about what a fabulous gift she was getting or how much she’d love it, she had to look. It drove her crazy not to know once someone began teasing and hinting.

  They led her into an area of the orchard with fruit-laden trees. She could tell this fruit wasn’t ripe, but a sweet smell drifted around them on the wind. She wondered where they were going. As far as she knew, the only thing beyond this was more of Kassius’s orchards.

  She let her gaze run up the row of trees. A splotch of color caught her attention. That didn’t belong there. A square of blue and green hung above the grassy area between the trees. It didn’t look to be that big and seemed to be suspended by something.

  “What’s that?” She looked to Berenger.

  “You’ll see soon.” Berenger ruffled her hair.

  “Has she been pressing for answers?” Kassius finally caught up with them.

  “Yes, she’s curious about what we’re doing here and our plans once we’re finished.” Teague laughed softly. “Doesn’t give up with the questions either.”

  “And you won’t satisfy that curiosity with an answer or two.” She pouted.

  “Well, one of your questions will be answered momentarily.” Teague caught her attention by stroking her shoulder.

  “Yes, but only because we’re nearly there. Not because you decided to do the right thing. You should try to keep me in a good mood. I assume you plan for this date to end with more than a kiss.” She smiled widely over at Teague. It would take a lot more than teasing and holding out on a few answers to make her decide to go home without them.

  “You should try a more believable threat. We know you want us.” He shook his head at her.

  “And if you tried to leave, we’d definitely persuade you to stay.” Kassius walked up beside them.

  She peered over and saw he carried a basket. It was covered so she had no idea what was in it, but she could add up the clues. The square of what might be fabric and a basket probably meant a picnic or some outdoor play. As her stomach growled, she realized she’d forgotten to eat today. Hopefully that had some food in it.

  “Don’t worry, baby. We’ll feed you.” Kassius smiled. “Berenger, spread the mat.”

  Berenger gave a small nod and moved forward to take the blue-and-green mat off the line that held it. He unfolded it and spread it over the grass. The spot was shaded by the fruit-laden trees.

  “What do you have in there?” She eyed the basket.

  “Things to tempt a hungry woman and give her the strength to keep up with the appetites of three hungry men.” Kassius’s voice lowered, and she glanced up to see his eyes drop significantly.

  “I don’t think I’ll have any problem in that department. Do you think you three can satisfy me?” She arched an eyebrow at him.

  “Over and over, my Sephanie.” Teague’s hand lightly smacked her buttocks. “I’d bet you’re too tired to do more than cuddle up next to us by the time we’re finished tonight.”

  “That is a wonderful way to end an evening.” She winked at him. “If you can deliver.”

  “Well, let’s feed you, and then we’ll get to our plans.” Teague took her from Kassius.

  He sat on the mat with her, settling her onto his lap. She hugged him and then planted one of her feet on the mat to ease to the side. When she began moving to his right, his hands tightened on her. He held her in place.

  “You know I can sit beside you.” She tried again to ease off his lap. Neither of them would be able to think clearly if he insisted on holding her. She could feel the stiff press of his cock against her buttocks and was tempted to rock against it.

  “You’ll sit right here. We told you we’d feed you.” Teague pulled her back against him.

  “You’re not going to be able to do much feeding or eating, holding me this way.” She turned so she could look back at him.

  “We’ll take turns holding you.” Berenger sat on the mat, but he was close enough to touch her. “He’ll probably find a way to do both.”

  “I’d like to eat. I haven’t had anything since this morning.” She relaxed back into Teague’s body. If he needed her in a different position, he’d rearrange her.

  “You haven’t eaten? Why?” Kassius, who was digging in the basket, stopped and looked at her as if she’d said something wrong.

  “I got busy and forgot.” She shrugged. After their reaction, she wouldn’t admit that it happened fairly regularly.

  “Let’s get some food into you, then.” Kassius pulled out a few containers. “But we do want you to take care of yourself. No skipping meals.”

  She wouldn’t argue or try to explain that sometimes the shop became busy or something went wrong in the kitchen. Occasionally she lost track of time and didn’t remember if she’d eaten until she made it home. Easier to deal with th
e occasional irritation than try to do the impossible and make them see business had to come first sometimes.

  It wasn’t that they didn’t understand that concept. When it came to business over personal concerns with someone they considered theirs, they wouldn’t understand. She’d seen it in her father, her brothers, and other men. Logic didn’t matter once male protective instincts surfaced.

  Chapter Nine

  Sephanie let her gaze roam from one man to the next, finally stopping on Berenger. Berenger unfastened the lid to one of the containers and held a square of sliced fruit to her lips. The sweet scent caused her mouth to water, and her stomach loudly reminded her of its emptiness. She bit into the crisp fruit, and juices burst over her tongue. She closed her eyes and savored the taste and scent. Delicious.

  “Keep them closed and open your mouth,” Kassius said. His breath feathered against her ear. Somehow he’d moved closer. She hadn’t heard even the brush of cloth on the mat.

  “This better not be some seduction thing. I am hungry.” She kept her lashes down but turned her head toward where his voice had been.

  He chuckled. “No, baby, we’ll play with you later, before we get down to the rest of our plan.”

  She didn’t know what to make of that. It sounded interesting. Curiosity stirred, but the repeated mention of plans made her nervous. Was it another surprise or something they didn’t think she’d like?

  She opened for the bite of food. Something brushed against her lips. She could smell a smoky, peppery scent. When the cool strip slipped inside, she closed her mouth around the offering. With a flavor somewhere between sweet and savory, the folded strip of meat almost melted before she could chew.

  The feel of fingers against the exposed slope of her breasts drew her attention away from the meat. Her eyes popped open. She glanced down and saw Teague opening the bodice of her dress. It took only moments before he pushed it wide, exposing the generous mounds.

  “I thought you said no playing until after you fed me.” She decided someone better keep them on script if she wanted to get more than a bite or two to eat.

  “We’re giving ourselves a view to admire and play with. Don’t worry. We can do both.” Teague’s big palm cupped her breast. “This is something I’d like to get my mouth on.”

  “Don’t arouse her too much yet. She needs to eat more before we seriously play.” Kassius brought another piece of meat close.

  She took the strip, scraping her teeth over the tips of his fingers. His thumb rubbed over her lips. He didn’t seem in any hurry to move his hand away from her. She loved his touch—actually the way all three of them touched her. Anytime she was with them, she felt as if she was the only woman they saw.

  Teague’s free hand caught her attention when it swept over her stomach. She drew in a slow breath and wondered which way it would go. Her body tensed, and the slow burn of desire flared as she thought about his hand slipping underneath her skirt. She squirmed on Teague’s lap. Slick moisture eased from her pussy, and an ache built in her clit.

  “Too distracting, Teague. She needs to eat more first.” Berenger grabbed Teague’s wrist and lifted it away from her stomach.

  She held back a groan, but her shoulders sagged in disappointment. Damn, she yearned to see where he’d go with that caress.

  “Don’t worry. We’ll get to that.” Berenger teasingly held a cube of food in front of her.

  Looking down, she couldn’t quite make out what he held. It didn’t have much scent. The small amount of aroma it did give off made her more curious. She couldn’t identify the teasing essence that drifted to her. She knew it was food, so she opened for the small morsel.

  Berenger didn’t press the bite into her mouth. He traced it around her lips. She licked at his fingers, trying to get a taste of the food, but the only things she managed to taste were his salty fingertips.

  “Give me the food, Berenger.” She glanced up at him through her lashes.

  “Are you hungry for my food or my kisses?” He tapped her bottom lip with the chunk of food.

  “I want you.” She put her hand on his arm. “But I’m hungry for food too.”

  He laughed. “Then I’ll feed you. We’ll get to the kisses and more later.”

  The cube of food slipped inside. It was a vegetable, crisp and fresh. She chewed with relish. Berenger and Kassius alternated feeding her. She took their offerings, enjoying the teasing in between.

  “Enough. I’ve eaten enough.” She pulled back from the chunk of ojia Berenger held in front of her. The juicy, red-fleshed fruit tempted her, but she was full.

  “Good, now we get to play.” Teague nuzzled her hair away from her earlobe. His teeth gently grazed it.

  Berenger spread the top of her dress wide, but it eased back partially over her breasts. He again pulled it open. When it again covered the side of her breast, he frowned. She smiled at his obvious frustration.

  “Lean forward and help me a little. Let’s get this off your arms. We’ll let the dress stay on, but the top is in my way.” Berenger reached out and guided her forward.

  Teague’s arms fell away. She almost grabbed at his hands and held them to her. Her body remembered his touch all too well. She ached to feel his fingers on her breasts or stroking her pussy until she came.

  “Maybe you should have picked a shirt and skirt, then.” She pulled her right arm free and then the left. The top of the dress dropped to bunch around her waist.

  “I wanted you to accompany us naked. They muttered something about laws and you not going along with that.” Teague’s hands clasped under her breasts and pulled her back against him.

  “They were right. I would have said no.” She relaxed back against his chest. “I’m not walking out of my house nude.”

  “Aw, don’t you trust us?” Teague stroked his hand down her stomach.

  “I trust you, but I’m not walking around nude for everyone else to see.” She turned in his arms so he could see her glare. She didn’t mind walking around without clothes for them and loved their dominance, but only for their enjoyment, not everyone else’s.

  “Thinking of it that way, I don’t want other men seeing this sweet body either.” Berenger drew his palm over her thigh, pushing up the skirt of her dress.

  “Relax against Teague, Sephanie. We intend to play. Watch, baby.” Kassius swept his thumb across her cheek.

  She didn’t get a chance to get comfortable. Teague guided her around until her back rested against his chest. He didn’t stop there. His hands skimmed down her rib cage and to her hips. She stiffened. Not because she was scared, but because he was irritating her.

  “I can do this.” She pressed on his arms.

  “So can I.” He angled her on his lap.

  “Teague.” She turned her head and glanced up at him.

  “Don’t argue. Watch and feel.” Teague’s hand rose.

  He cupped her chin and brushed his lips across hers. His tongue probed lightly. She opened her mouth for him. When the kiss deepened, she felt the hunger rising in her. The touch incited a desire for more.

  His teeth grazed her lip as he pulled back. “Watch them. We’re determined to please you.”

  She groaned softly and leaned into him. The last thing she wanted to do was sit back and watch. She ached to touch, kiss, and inflame.

  “But I need to play too.” She stared at him. She loved the way they focused their attention on her, but her palms and fingertips tingled with the urge to explore their bodies.

  “And you will, Sephanie. But watch.” Teague gently turned her back to Berenger and Kassius.

  “You’ll enjoy this.” Berenger drew his fingers across her cheek. “Watch and feel. Don’t hold back. Let me hear what you like and what you love.”

  She smiled at that. Her gaze remained locked on his until the moment something cool and wet grazed her chest. She glanced down and saw Kassius holding a pinkish piece of fruit. It was cut into a cube. She couldn’t tell what it was from the color.

&n
bsp; He swirled the fruit up her breast, painting circles around her nipple and into the valley between the two mounds. Her breath caught in her throat as he ran the cool fruit over the hardened bud, coating it with the juice.

  Kassius leaned in and lapped at the stiff tip. His soft hum of appreciation vibrated against her nipple. She reached for him. She barely skimmed over his hair before she felt a grip on her arms and they were pulled back.

  “Feel, baby. Just feel and watch.” Teague kept his hands loosely clasped on her arms.

  “You’re demanding tonight.” She glanced back at him.

  “This is only the beginning, Sephanie. We’ll get much more demanding before the night is over.” Berenger cupped her cheek and turned her face back to the front.

  “Sometime tonight, I’ll kiss and stroke you, all of you.” She scowled at him and then looked to Kassius.

  “If you have the energy after we’re through with you.” Kassius smiled. His head lowered to her breasts again. “Baby, I believe I was licking juice off your breast. I think I need more juice.”

  “If you’re thirsty, there is more to drink in that basket.” She’d noticed it while they’d pulled out food earlier.

  “I’m not thirsty, baby. I’m hungry for you.” Kassius took the square of fruit and drew it up her breast. He squeezed the fruit.

  Juice dribbled over her breast before running across her belly. She shivered when the light wind blew over the damp trails. Kassius leaned close and began lapping at the juice. He flicked at the taut nipple as he followed the path of the sticky liquid. The fleeting contact sent sparks of hunger shooting straight to the growing knot low in her stomach.

  He lapped at the juice on her belly, but he kept returning to her nipple. The tormenting licks contrasted sharply with the graze of his teeth. The prolonged tease drove her crazy.

  She tried to reach for him and pull him to her breast. Teague’s grip on her arms kept them at her sides. She wanted to draw Kassius closer so badly she trembled. He didn’t seem inclined to release her. Forced to watch, she couldn’t help anticipating where Kassius would lick or kiss. She wished Kassius would close his mouth over that nipple and suck.
