Steve leaned forward. “What happened with the tile?”
Embarrassed and annoyed, Julianna shifted in her seat. “I apologize for losing my temper. I knew we shouldn’t have gotten…involved. I don’t usually act so unprofessionally. I told you, I’ll take care—”
“You’re beginning to piss me off, Julianna. We’re involved, and we’re staying that way. What happened with the fucking tile?” Nick’s tone matched the ice in his dark eyes.
Feeling like an incompetent idiot, Julianna squirmed under their combined gazes. “I called to check on the delivery date for the tile and was told that it would be delayed several weeks because Mr. Vanguard changed the order to another special order tile. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to go to the tile store before it closes and get to the bottom of this. Where did you take my damned car?” Again she tried to get up, settling back with a sigh at Nick’s meaningful glare.
“To the junkyard. They used Steve’s name?”
“Damn it, you had no right to do that.”
Nick’s jaw clenched. “That’s something we’ll discuss later. Did the man at the store tell you that whoever did this used Steve’s name?”
Julianna wanted to pursue the matter of her car, but the look on Nick’s face changed her mind. “Yes. I don’t know why they believed that, but I’m going to find out.”
Steve stood and began pacing. “And you said someone added red to the paint for the hotel? You’re positive?”
Julianna nodded, wanting nothing more than to get out of here before she embarrassed herself any further. “Yes. Someone’s trying to make me fail, something I’m not going to do. I really need to go speak to the man about the tile and get it straightened out.”
Nick stood, extending a hand to help her to her feet. “Adam’s probably right outside the door by now. He’ll go with you.”
Steve opened the door, pushing it wide to admit Adam. “Lost her, huh?”
Adam shook his head abashedly. “Sorry, boss. I didn’t expect her to run out the way she did, especially after that David came to see her. It won’t happen again.”
Steve’s brows went up. “Adam, would you mind waiting in the hall for a few minutes?”
“Sure thing.” Adam grinned her way. “Don’t worry. You won’t lose me again.” He ducked back out the door before she had a chance to respond.
Julianna stepped away from Nick and Steve, desperately needing to put a little distance between them. Still angry with what appeared to be deliberate attempts to sabotage her project, she was angrier at herself for flying off the handle in an unprofessional manner, especially since her actions showed Nick and Steve more than she’d wanted them to see. Wrapping her arms around herself, she moved to the window before turning back to face them. “None of this makes any sense. Why—”
Steve’s long strides closed the distance between them before she could react. Overcoming her effort to move away, he gripped her chin, looming over her. “Why did David come to see you?”
Knocking his hand away, Julianna stepped back, slamming into a solid wall of muscle. She tried to move away, but Nick’s arms came around her, preventing it. “Because he’s a pain in the ass. Let go of me.” She locked her knees when Nick’s lips touched her neck, just as his strong arms around her began their journey upward.
Nuzzling her neck, he slid his hands up to cup her breasts, flicking his thumbs over her nipples. “What did he say?”
She involuntarily tilted her head as the seductive slide of his lips over her neck became impossible to ignore. Closing her eyes against the anger swirling in Steve’s eyes as Nick’s hands worked their magic, she let her head fall back against Nick’s shoulder.
“It won’t work, you know. I’m not that weak. Besides, it’s really none of your…ah…business.”
The finger that Nick slid between her thighs pressed against her clit with pinpoint accuracy. “Do you really want to test me right now?”
Steve lifted her chin and began unbuttoning her shirt. Holding her gaze with his, he flicked open the front closure of her bra and pulled the two ends apart.
“Answer Nick’s question. What did David want? Why did he come to see you?”
Knowing damned well that they were trying to use her passion against her, she still couldn’t resist them, the anger inside her turning to lust as Steve bared her from the waist up.
Surprised at their apparent jealousy, she blinked up at Steve, the last of her resistance crumbling under the heat in his eyes, her nipples beading as his gaze narrowed and dropped to them. When he licked his lips, she sucked in a breath in anticipation.
Over her shoulder, Nick looked down at her breasts.
“Thrust them out for us.”
Julianna tried to move on the finger Nick held against her clit, but his hand tightened around her waist, preventing it. The cool air blended with the hot gazes on her breasts, and she arched her back, automatically seeking out Steve’s touch, and involuntarily obeying Nick’s command.
Steve avoided her easily, grinning when she growled in frustration. Bending, he swiped his tongue over her nipple and blew on it. “Damn, woman, you’re a lot of fun. I think I like you when you’re mad. All that passion looking for an outlet. If I know Nick, it’s only going to get worse if you don’t tell him what he wants to know. By then, you’ll be aroused and embarrassed. Wouldn’t you rather just tell him what he wants to know now?”
Nick raked his teeth over her neck and pressed his cock against her lower back. “I’ll bet your little clit is throbbing. I’m having jewelry made for it, your nipples, and your ass. I’m going to like decorating you. Won’t you like that, little one? Have you ever worn jewelry on your nipples before? I think Steve will like seeing you that way, too.”
Reaching out, Steve ran a finger over each of her nipples, sending little sizzles through her that made her clit pulse harder. “I’d love to see that.”
Nick adjusted his hold on her and pushed a finger unerringly against her puckered opening. “And definitely something to get rid of that slouching. I’ll order her some training items today.”
Julianna trembled and had to bite her lip to hold back the moan that rose from deep within her. Just having her breasts exposed to their gazes aroused her, but Nick’s nonchalant threat sent it soaring. The pressure he applied to her clit and bottom hole and his firm hold had her close to coming in her jeans.
Still, the need to appear unaffected remained strong. She’d never before been so easy, and although she’d searched for a man who would make her feel this way forever, she couldn’t let go without a fight.
“I don’t want any jewelry from either one of you, and I certainly don’t want to be trained. I already told you I didn’t like when David tried to—Oh!”
Steve pinched her nipples and twisted slightly, the pleasure and pain combining and setting off waves of tingles from her breasts outward. “We’d never treat you like a pet, but I think Nick’s right. You do need to be taken in hand. Now tell us about David.”
Releasing her nipples, he reached for the button on her jeans and quickly undid it and the zipper, and yanked them and her panties down to her knees.
Nick’s growl against her ear made her knees shake. “Hold her.”
Steve’s grin flashed as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders and pulled her firmly against his chest.
Julianna tried to push at him, yelping when Nick wrapped an arm around her waist from behind and lifted her feet off of the floor. She kicked at him, but with his legs between hers, she couldn’t connect.
“Stop it. Damn it, stop manhandling me!”
Steve chuckled and grabbed a fistful of hair and tilted her face to his. “Baby, you love to be manhandled.”
Julianna gasped, unable to speak when something small and cold slid into her ass. To her amazement, it started vibrating, making her ass clench in spasms that sent chills up and down her spine while at the same time making her pussy, clit, and nipples tingle with a heat that had her crying out. Gu
lping in air, she shivered as Nick set her on her feet again and efficiently zipped her back into her jeans.
She held on to Steve, unable to lock her knees. The feel of something in her bottom made it hard to concentrate, the vibration of it making it difficult to breathe. Her panties became even more soaked with her juices, her pussy clenching in spasms she couldn’t control.
“Oh, God. What is it? What the hell did you do?” Her ass milked whatever Nick had inserted, tightening on it over and over again, no matter how hard she tried to stop.
She reached back, groaning as the movement shifted whatever Nick had slid inside her, her breath catching as her nipples slid over Steve’s chest.
A laughing Steve picked her up and carried her to the sofa, sitting down with her in his lap. “Feel good, baby?” His hand went to her breasts, tugging the material away when she tried to cover them.
Nick came to sit beside her, holding up a small square. He flicked a switch in the side and the vibrating stopped. “I love little toys. Don’t you? Usually I don’t get involved with a woman long enough to have a chance to play with things like this, but with you I have twenty-four-hour access. I learned recently that I miss playing.”
With a grin, he flicked the switch again, sending the small vibrating bullet humming. “The possibilities are simply mind-boggling.”
The humming in her bottom made it impossible to sit still. Her chest heaved as wave after wave of pleasure raced through her, and Steve’s arm around her kept her from covering her breasts against the throbbing there. Her entire slit vibrated, making it impossible to think. Her clit felt swollen to twice its size, pulsing in time to her heartbeat.
Her anus clenched as the uncomfortable need to have her bottom stretched and filled made her squeeze her bottom cheeks together as hard as she could, the action intensifying the buzzing until she would swear she could feel it on her clit.
She couldn’t stop clenching, her abdomen and thigh muscles becoming so tight they hurt.
Automatically looking to Nick for guidance, she trembled under the intensity of his stare. To her delight and horror, the tingles caused by the vibration gathered in strength and spread until they encompassed every part of her.
The knowledge of what she felt glittered in Nick’s eyes as they held hers, and with no warning, he flicked the switch off again, keeping her hanging on the edge.
She stared at the item in his hand, holding her breath as she waited for him to flick the switch again. Every muscle in her body became tight with anticipation as she watched the thumb he held over the control.
Steve chuckled and tumbled her back, leaning over her and blocking Nick from her view. “You like that little vibrator in your ass, don’t you?”
Nick’s hot hand covered a thigh. “It’s important to wake up those nerves in her ass and get them used to being stimulated. You can see she’s so distracted she wouldn’t be able to obey the easiest command. She’ll never really get used to having something in her ass, but she’ll soon be better able to adjust to it.”
Julianna stared into Steve’s eyes as Nick’s cool tone washed over her.
How could he always know what she was feeling?
Without the vibration she could settle a little, but the threat of it kept her senses heightened. She twisted on Steve’s lap in an effort to escape, with the intention of getting away from them and taking that thing, whatever it was, out of her ass.
She kept tightening on it without meaning to, disconcerted with not only the feel of something in her bottom and the threat of it being turned on at any moment, but also her body’s response to anal play.
It had always been the one thing that she feared, and she never would have dreamed it would take her over to the point that she couldn’t concentrate on anything else.
What would it be like when one of them took her there, if even the smallest amount of play sent her into a tailspin?
The throbbing in her clit got steadily worse, and it took enormous effort to remain still, her embarrassment growing that they would know the helpless feeling that having something inserted in her ass caused, or the way she responded so readily as soon as they touched her there.
Steve laid a heavy hand on her belly, his soft caress making her stomach muscles tighten. “Yeah, she seems pretty distracted.” He grinned at her whimper when Nick flicked the switch again and leaned back, allowing her to see Nick again. “Looks like she’s ready to come and we’re not even touching her anywhere else.”
Nodding, Nick placed a hand over her mound, his eyes glittering darkly. “Yes. Our Julianna likes it when we have our way with her, and she definitely likes having her ass filled. This is just the beginning. I’m anxious to explore her a little more and find out more of our darling’s little secrets.”
Julianna drew deep, gulping breaths in a desperate attempt to get herself under control. He had to know what talk like that did to her, and she wondered if she’d be around them long enough to ever get used to it.
“Make me come, damn it, or let me up.”
Steve and Nick both sat back, removing their hands from her. Steve grinned. “Be my guest.”
Eyeing them both warily, Julianna jumped up from his lap, holding back a groan as the thing in her bottom shifted and began to vibrate again. The buzzing in her ass made her clumsier than usual, and she found she had to hold on to a chair for support. “Turn that fucking thing off.”
To her relief and disappointment, the buzzing stopped. With shaky hands, she worked her jeans and panties down and, conscious of their stares, removed the small, bullet-shaped object from her ass.
Nick came forward and held out his hand. “I believe that belongs to me.” Taking it from her, he wrapped it in a tissue and stuffed it in his pocket, along with the control. He came forward and placed a hand on her bare mound, his fingers tracing lightly over her folds.
“What did David want?”
Gripping his arm, Julianna came to her toes in an attempt to get him to touch her aching clit. “He said that we belong together and that he wouldn’t even punish me for giving him a black eye. There. Satisfied?”
Nick tapped her clit. “Not even close.”
Steve appeared beside her and reached for her hand, lifting it to his chest and laying a hand over her breast. “That’s big of him. What did you say?”
Her already sensitized nipples beaded even more tightly, and she arched her back, pushing into his palms. A moan escaped before she could prevent it, born of the slide of his teeth over her neck. “I told him, um, hmm, that I never want to see him again.” Her hand moved of its own volition over Steve’s massive chest, flexing as she caressed him while rocking her hips against Nick’s hand.
Nick closed his teeth over her earlobe. “Good. In case you haven’t figured it out, this relationship is mutually exclusive.”
Finding his touch irresistible, she arched into it, her mind and body once again overwhelmed to be surrounded by two such strong and masculine men who seemed, at least for now, to find her a desirable woman.
Nodding, she smiled. “Mutually exclusive.”
Moments like this would be great memories. For as long as it lasts.
She could never let herself forget that.
A pregnant silence followed as Nick lifted his head, removing his hand from between her thighs to wrap his arms around her. His lips brushed her neck again, the sensation making her shiver.
Steve slid a hand over her abdomen and down to slide between her thighs, cupping her mound. “She even had a guy in the elevator following her, trying to get her to go to dinner with him.”
“Did she?”
Julianna slowly rocked her hips against Steve’s hand. “I would have scared him off before we even finished dinner.”
Steve separated her folds. “Scary, are you?”
Nick slid his hands up to cover her breasts. Chuckling softly, he ran his lips over her jaw, brushing them over hers when she turned toward him. “You scare the hell out of me, Julianna.” He covere
d her mouth with his with one of those long, controlling kisses that made her feel soft and feminine, while drawing all of her naughtiest, most erotic fantasies to the surface. He nipped and nibbled, teasing her mercilessly before delving inside, only to pull back again when she became aggressive, the way he had that day in the elevator. As soon as she became pliant, difficult to do with Steve’s firm strokes on her clit, Nick advanced again, taking her mouth with a masterful expertise that all but melted her bones.
Her bottom still clenched, making her wish she hadn’t removed the vibrating object. But at least now when she came, it wouldn’t be due to anal play.
It mortified her that they knew how much she liked it.
Julianna gripped Nick’s forearms, grateful for his support when her knees gave out. Her breasts seemed to swell under his hands, her nipples tingling at even the lightest friction of his palms.
Steve’s fingers slid with unerring accuracy through her folds to manipulate her clit, alternately stroking and pinching it, throwing her deeper into a storm of heat and need. Her clit burned, throbbing incessantly as her juices drenched his fingers.
Any time either of them touched her, she went up in flames, but whenever they touched her together, it became an inferno, and it amazed her that she’d never given this kind of relationship any thought.
She’d wanted forever, but knew a ménage could only be temporary and never even considered it.
Wishing for things that would never be would only hurt her in the end, and she had to keep reminding herself that this could never be any more than sex.
She had a strong suspicion, however, that she’d already begun to lose her heart to two men, something she’d never even dreamed possible.
Trusting Nick enough to let him take her weight proved difficult, but in the end she had no choice. Under their talented hands, all of the strength seemed to drain out of her while the ribbons of pleasure grew stronger.
Steve slid her pants down to her knees, his strokes to her clit never faltering and throwing her headlong into orgasm, her cries filling the room as her body bowed in Nick’s arms. “Yeah, babe. That’s it.” He bent to where her head rested on Nick’s shoulder and touched his lips to hers, swallowing her cries.
