Alien Affair

  “There’s no way,” Jessica said, turning to look at Curtis and then covering her mouth.

  “Jess, what the hell is going on? Are you alright?”

  “I should go,” Jessica said, grabbing her jacket.

  Curtis grabbed her wrist, but she pulled away and headed for the door without another word.

  “Jess?” Mark asked as the front door swung open.

  “Oh no,” Jessica said.

  “Wait, how do you two know each other?” Curtis asked, looking from Mark to Jessica.

  Curtis had finally looked at Jessica’s clothes and realized that she was wearing biking shorts. Realization was dawning on Curtis and he felt his stomach sink. There was no way it was possible.

  “Um, what am I missing?” Mark asked, slamming the front door.

  “I can explain,” Jessica said, looking from Curtis to Mark.

  “Explain what?” Mark asked, dropping a picnic basket on the floor.

  Curtis rolled his eyes. Mark really was clueless.

  “She played us, Mark,” Curtis said, feeling like he wanted to punch a wall.

  “No! I had no idea you two knew each other. I’m just as confused as you two are. I met Mark at the coffee shop and Curt at the grocery store. I never put together that you two knew each other let alone were roommates.”

  Curtis slumped down on the leather sofa, holding his face in his hands. He knew it was too good to be true.

  “Wow, this sucks,” Mark said, leaning back against the closed door.

  “No shit, Mark,” Curtis said, bitterly.

  “I really didn’t want to hurt anyone. I just met both of you and it was too soon to tell anything,” Jessica said, ringing her fingers together.

  “That’s why you freaked out when you saw the photos,” Curtis said, shaking his head.

  “Look, it’s an honest mistake, man,” Mark said, walking over to a recliner in the living room.

  “Um, no, this is crazy, man. I actually liked her,” Curtis said, pointing at Jessica.

  “I liked you too. I liked both of you and it was so early that I just didn’t know who to pick,” Jessica said sighing loudly.

  “Well, we’re here. Who do you want?” Mark asked, crossing his arms.

  Jessica was silent, looking from Mark to Curtis with widened eyes.

  “Jess?” Curtis asked, watching her speculatively.

  “I’m thinking. It’s just so soon and—this is so complicated,” Jessica said, holding her forehead.

  “Well, I still kind of want my date when the weather’s good again,” Mark said, shrugging.

  “Mark, seriously?” Curtis said.

  “Look, man. It’s a small town and we all just met her. I just don’t think it’s fair to gang up on her.”

  “Who do you like better, Jess?” Curtis asked.

  “Curt, you sound like a pussy, man. Besides I didn’t get to sleep with her yet so she can’t know that,” Mark said, winking.

  “I’m right here, guys,” Jessica said, plopping down in the sofa.

  “Of course, that’s how you wanted to deal with this, with a sex-off,” Curtis said, leaning back on the sofa and rubbing his forehead.

  “I mean… would that be so bad though?” Mark asked, sitting in the recliner.

  “I don’t know if I like this,” Jessica said, narrowing her eyes at Mark.

  “Me neither,” Curtis said flatly.

  “I’m saying that it’s all out in the open and I’m all for Jess making her call when she’s ready, but it the meantime, we’re trapped inside. We’re all consenting adults here. Would it really be so bad if we—you know,” Mark said, leaning on his knees and eyeing Jessica up and down.

  “Are you saying what I think you’re saying?” Jessica asked.

  “I’m saying no one has to make a choice today. Like, honestly, Jess if you choose Curt, I’d support you guys, but for today, I say we explore other options,” Mark said, flashing a crooked smile at Jessica.

  “Curt?” Jessica asked, reaching for his hands.

  She was considering it. In some weird way so was he. He had never done it before. Mark had a threesome or foursome at least once a month and Curtis did wonder.

  “Fine, let’s do it then.” Curtis said.

  *****

  Curtis

  Curtis stood back and let Mark lead. He was not sure he was one hundred percent on board, but the swelling between his legs had other ideas as he watched Mark peel Jessica out of her shorts and t-shirt. He could not believe seeing Mark’s hands on Jessica’s body was actually turning him on.

  “Suck it, baby,” Mark said, pulling out of a deep kiss with Jessica.

  Jessica looked over at Curtis and he nodded slowly. He wanted to see. He could not explain why, but his dick was rock hard and getting harder as Jessica’s tongue dragged up his best friend’s cock.

  “Take your clothes off, Curt,” Jessica said, as she stroked Mark.

  Curtis obeyed as Jessica started sucking Mark deeper and slower. Curtis found his hand gliding up and down the length of his own swollen member as Jessica worked.

  “Come here Curt,” Jessica said, turning to face him.

  Without hesitation, Jessica started sucking Curtis’s dick, deep and slow. He held her head as she sent shockwaves through his groin.

  “Oh God, that’s so good, Jess,” Curtis said, feeling her kiss between his legs.

  “What about me, guys?” Jessica asked sheepishly.

  “Sit down, Curt,” Mark said, jutting his chin to the sofa.

  Curtis obeyed since this was clearly Mark’s forte.

  “Now you can ride him, Jess,” Mark said with ease like he was giving directions to a physical address.

  Curtis watched Jessica’s beautiful body glide toward him and his mouth formed the perfect O as she sank down onto his cock.

  “You like that, baby?” Curtis asked, teasing her, nipping with his hands and then with his tongue.

  “Yes,” Jessica said as she grinded into him.

  As she built a rhythm, Curtis clenched his abs to stop himself from coming. A thin sheen of sweat was covering Jessica’s body giving her a sexy, ethereal glow as she climaxed on Curtis’s dick.

  “Oh that’s good, Jess,” Curtis said, guiding her hips.

  Mark came up from behind her and started kissing her shoulders.

  “Don’t mind me,” Mark said, rubbing some lube on his hard cock.

  “Jess, lean forward for me, okay?” Mark said, kissing her shoulders.

  Curtis watched with amazement as Mark eased his dick into Jessica’s ass. Curtis saw Jessica’s eyes widen and then her mouth fell open. Curtis felt the tightness increase inside of Jessica and it took all of his strength not to come. He could barely move. Jessica was soaking and holding Curtis’s shoulders tight.

  “You okay, baby?” Curtis asked, starting to grind slow into her.

  “Yes, baby,” Jessica moaned.

  “I’m good too, guys. Thanks for asking,” Mark said through gritted teeth. “Or not. I’m gonna come.”

  Curtis, Jessica and Mark moved in sync, and Mark held Jessica’s shoulders tight as Curtis could tell he came inside of her. The tightness was overwhelming and Curtis came hard, burying himself in Jessica.

  Mark collapsed on the floor and Jessica collapsed on Curtis’s chest. He held her waist, drawing circles on her back with his fingers.

  “Do you forgive me?” Jessica whispered in Curtis’s ear.

  “What? Of course. I mean it’s crazy, but it’s no one’s fault,” Curtis said in a low voice.

  Mark rose from the wood floor and Curtis soon heard the shower come on in the neighboring bedroom.

  “What happens to us now?” Jessica asked, tracing Curtis’s jaw with her fingers.

  “That’s up to you. I mean this was fun, but I do want you, Jess. I wanted you as soon as you dropped those capers in the grocery store parking lot.”

  Jessica smiled broadly and Curtis felt his heart leap.

  “Is that w
hy you came by today?”

  “Yes. I wanted to tell you everything. I wanted to tell you I choose you. I swear I had no idea you and Mark knew each other until I saw the photos. I damn near had a heart attack.”

  “I believe you. I just want you to know I’m serious and I don’t plan on living with him forever.”

  “I believe you. Hey, maybe I can set Mark up with my roommate.”

  “Um, no offense, but he is nowhere near ready to settle down with anyone.”

  “Ha! Neither is my roommate.”

  “They would be a match made in heaven then.”

  “Is that what we are then?” Jessica asked, kissing his lips.

  “I’d say so. You mean a lot to me, Jess. I just want you happy.”

  “We should go to your room, Curt.”

  “Oh yeah? Why is that?”

  “Isn’t it obvious? I’m tired of sharing you. I want you all to myself now.”

  “Yes ma’am.”

  Curtis jumped off the sofa with Jessica’s legs wrapped around him and her squealing with excitement as he carried her into his room. It was not how he envisioned everything playing out, but he was used to thinking on his feet, and he was used to following his instincts. And right now his instincts were telling him to never ever put out Jessica’s fire, no matter what happened earlier. This was truly the best spark he had ever faced in his entire life and as long as he had her, it was never going out.

  THE END

  Bonus Story 25 of 40

  Lion’s Pride

  “Bye Miss N! See you next year! I’ll be taller again!” Nora chuckled as she hugged little Bo Reynolds. She’d miss him over the summer vacation. He was the funniest second grader she’d ever had and that was mostly because he didn’t even know he was being funny.

  After she saw all her kids out she went about cleaning up her classroom for the summer, taking down decorations and leaving the room pretty much bare. Even though she definitely needed the break of summer, she always felt sad at the end of the year to see them go.

  “School’s out already?” his voice rumbled through her, comforting, enticing, and exciting her all at once. Nora turned around and smiled at Safir, who was leaning against the wall just inside the classroom’s back door. He was a tall, sturdy man, with not one ounce of fat on him, and was as sharp and protective as a guy could get. But he wasn’t just any ‘guy.’ He was a lion shifter, the local pride’s leader and he was all Nora’s.

  “I think it is actually… but maybe I just lost my kids again,” she joked, causing him to chuckle. He walked over to her. He was wearing his characteristic blue jeans and flannel shirt, rolled up at the sleeves. His curly blonde hair was always shoulder length and framed his GQ-worthy face beautifully. Nora often couldn’t believe she lucked out with such a perfect guy.

  “You’re the worst teacher ever,” he said and instead of embracing him when he reached her, Nora punched him in the arm. Of course it was like hitting a rock and he didn’t even flinch. Laughing, he pulled her in for a kiss and encircled her waist with his arms. “So I was thinking that this summer we can spend more time together. As in…you have no excuses to be with me night and day. No ‘grading spelling tests’ and ‘picking up Suzan Lancaster from home because her mother’s car broke down.’” Safir was being sarcastic only because Nora did have a tendency to run away from him a little and make excuses to put some distance between them. They’d only been together for a few months and she had trouble believing Safir was real, that he really wanted her and her alone.

  “Alright, alright. I give, so what do you have planned for us this summer, pray tell?” she asked. He smirked and pushed a lock of her mahogany-colored hair behind her ear.

  “So much romantic stuff that you’ll have no choice but to marry me come August.” He gave her a charming grin and pressed another kiss to her lips.

  “Romantic ‘stuff?’” she giggled.

  “Yup, absolutely. You like watching hockey right?” she rolled her eyes as he laughed, a fond smile on her face.

  “So are you staying to help me pack up the classroom or what?” she asked him, stepping out of his embrace to fetch a nearby box.

  “No I’m just here to look pretty and watch you do all the work. You know…sit back, watch you bend over and…put stuff away,” he said slowly in some trying-to-be-sexy voice. Nora couldn’t help but laugh.

  “You’re such an idiot,” she said, still laughing. He simply flashed her a toothy grin and walked over to the pile of boxes, grabbing one for himself.

  “Of course I’m here to help you baby, then we can go grab some lunch,” he kissed her on the temple before they got to work. They pulled down decorations, emptied out desks, and pushed them out into the hallway. Of course Safir was the main one doing the heavy lifting and Nora was the one to sit back and watch. It was dusk by the time they were done and Nora felt as though she could use a bath and a glass of wine.

  “So where are you taking me to eat?” she asked him, knowing he’d most likely had their entire evening planned out.

  “To my place,” he smirked and slid an arm around her waist as they walked to Nora’s truck out in the school’s lot.

  “You own a kitchen?” she teased, making him laugh out loud.

  “Yes, I do own a kitchen and I cook sometimes,” he admitted. All the time she’d known Safir, she’d always been the one to cook dinner at her place. In fact, the only parts of Safir’s unnecessarily large house she’s seen were his bedroom and the family room.

  “Will you finally give me a tour of your house? Or are you actually hiding dead bodies in every room?” he simply smiled and held his hand out for her keys.

  “Well I was a private guy before, but now I’ve decided to share things with you,” he admitted. His sudden honesty took Nora a bit by surprise.

  “Okay then…” was her only reply.

  “Like I said, married by the end of the summer,” he winked at her and held the passenger door open for her to get in.

  “So what’s the rush to marry me all of a sudden?” she asked him as he started up the truck and pulled out of the parking lot.

  “Well I’m one hundred percent sure that you’re my mate so…why wait to marry you?” he glanced at her briefly, flashing a smile. She reached over to slip her hand in his. Honestly she couldn’t have dreamed up a better future husband.

  *****

  “Safir, are you sure you know how to cook?” Nora was watching him with amusement. She was sitting at the breakfast bar while Safir was about to cook steaks for them both in a cast iron pan.

  “You laugh now, but just watch. When you eat this you’ll be doing more than kissing the chef.” He glanced at her with a wink, and she giggled before taking a sip of wine. Safir glanced over at the kitchen door before Nora even heard a knock. He opened the door and his second, Rafael, walked in.

  “Hey Nora, how you doin’?” he asked, not even greeting his alpha yet. Safir growled and Nora hid her laugh.

  “I’m good Rafael, what’s up?” she asked.

  “Yeah why are you here? We’re on a date,” Safir practically growled, Rafael simply grinned at his closest friend.

  “There’s a bonfire party out on the beach. I wanted to see if you guys would stop by,” he glanced over at the stove, smelling food, but Safir got in his way before he could steal a bite of anything.

  “Fine, we’ll come later. Now leave,” Safir said, pushing Rafael back out.

  “You look great by the way Nora, I’ll see you at the party,” he grinned and she winked at him, which Safir saw. With a growl he shoved a laughing Rafael out and shut the door soundly behind him.

  “Don’t flirt with my lions,” he said in that dominant tone he sometimes used with her.

  “Rafael’s harmless,” she said with a small smile. He quirked an eyebrow at her and walked over to pull her chair out from the bar a little, closer to him. She bit her lip to hide her smile.

  “Don’t flirt with the lions…” he reiterated, his mouth on
ly a breath away from hers. She nodded without comment. Safir kissed her, softly brushing his lips over hers before he set her chair back to normal and went to focus on the steaks.

  “What if…what if the only way you could have me was if you had to share with someone else?” she asked him, half testing, half teasing. Nora knew she ran the risk of really upsetting him though with her question.

  “And you’d be happy with being shared?” he asked her with a quirk of his brow.

  “Yeah, like say for instance the only way I could be happy was if I had you and someone else in my life…” she posed the question with a hypothetical tone.

  “Come again? You’re joking right?” he said, pointing a fork at her. She shrugged, instantly regretting posing that question in the first place. Safir stared at her for a moment with an intent stare before he sighed, shaking his head. “I wouldn’t share you with anyone Nora, you’re mine and I’m yours.”

  “It was just a…hypothetical question,” she said, trying to appease him.

  Safir took a deep breath and she saw him relax, though only a little. “Yeah well…you know if you want a threesome all you have to do is ask,” he said, giving her a wink. Nora’s jaw dropped and she threw a cube of cheese at him, which he dodged even with his back turned.

  “Can’t you be normal for just five seconds so I can hit you?” she asked which made him laugh of course.

  “No darling, I can’t,” he answered blithely. “These steaks will be ready soon,” he added.

  Nora hopped down from the breakfast bar to go wash her hands, fix her hair a little and make sure she still looked presentable. Safir never seemed to care if she had bedhead or if she was having a bad hair day. Nora never really put much stock into her looks, normally. She knew she was attractive; her classically feminine features were what one would often see in any fashion magazine. Her big eyes were a bit cat-like, especially with their almost yellow tint. She had curves in all the right places and wasn’t too short or too tall. But since she chose to work with small kids she tended to wear practical clothes and have practical hair. That was until she met Safir. These days, Nora put more care into looking nice, as he often popped up unexpectedly throughout her day.
