It wasn’t very deep near the edge, but the rocky bottom slanted down quickly as she walked toward the middle of the pool. Ry and Jeff joined her, and she leaned back and floated in the soothing warm water. She closed her eyes as the water lapped around her and felt their hands support her as they slipped them underneath her shoulders and legs.
They moved closer to the large boulders after a while, and they released her legs and supported her shoulders as she found her footing. There was enough moonlight that she could see their faces even as they moved back to the center of the pool and moved their arms through the water, keeping themselves floating.
She heard a howling sound in the distance. “What was that?” She stared at Jeff and Ry as they gave each other a look. Obviously they had an idea what it was.
“Sounded sort of like a wolf,” Jeff said.
“Maybe a coyote,” Ry added.
“Whatever it is, it gave me the shivers,” she said. “Do you think it will come near us?”
“I don’t think so,” Jeff said. “It sounded like it was way up near the top of the Red Rock promontory, north of here.”
A breeze came up, and she shivered. “I think I’ll get out and dry off,” she said.
“How about we dry off and head over to the house for some refreshments?” Jeff suggested.
“Sounds good,” she said.
“I agree,” Ry said as he moved with her to the edge of the pool and gave her a hand up out of the water.
Jeff followed right behind them, and they slipped out of their wet clothing, dried off, and put on their dry clothes. After gathering up their wet suits and towels, they climbed into the truck, and Jeff drove them to their house. After they arrived at the house, they rinsed out their swimming suits and put them on hangers to dry in the utility room. They headed for the kitchen and some snacks and drinks.
“What would you like?” Ry asked, smiling warmly at her.
“What are you guys having?” she hedged.
“I think I’ll have a glass of white wine and a slice of spice cake,” Ry said.
“That sounds delicious. I’d like some, too.” she said.
“Coming right up,” Ry said as he opened the fridge and took out a bottle of wine and a plate holding the spice cake.
“Save me some,” Jeff said, grinning at her as he joined her on the stool beside her at the island. He put his arm around her waist and leaned close to give her a soft kiss on her cheek.
She smiled warmly at him, feeling completely at ease with both Jeff and Ry.
Ry poured their drinks and set them in front of her and Jeff, handed their pieces of cake to them on plates with forks, and sat down on the other side of her.
She was hungry after her late evening swim in the warm pool. She enjoyed her cake with the white wine, which had the perfect, slightly sweet taste she liked best. Soon the three of them were finished with their cake.
“Would you like to drink your wine in the bedroom with us?” Jeff asked her softly.
She met his heated gaze and nodded. “I’d love to.”
Ry collected their plates and utensils and put them in the dishwasher. Jeff stepped away from his stool and held her hand as she slid off her stool. Ry joined them as they started toward the hall to the bedrooms.
“If you ever feel the need for your own bedroom in this house, feel free to pick one. We have more than we need,” Ry said.
“Thanks, I appreciate that,” she said, meeting his gaze.
In Jeff’s room, they slipped out of their clothes.
She sat down on the foot of the bed, and Jeff sat down next to her.
“Would you like to come on top of me, hon, while Ry stands behind you and pleasures you? Sort of like we did last time, but with Ry and me changing places?”
“Yes, that sounds good.”
She watched Jeff as he settled on the bed, reclining so that she could easily pleasure him and kneel between his legs close enough to the foot of the bed for Ry to caress her pussy. Jeff’s cock was hard, the bulbous head dark rose, and a bead of pre-cum glistened in the little slit on top. She wanted to taste him and grasped the base, curling her fingers around his shaft. As she lowered her head and parted her lips to lick the bead of cum, he cupped her breasts in his hands and stroked her nipples with his thumbs. She inhaled swiftly with the arousing sensation as aching heat plunged through her body to make her pussy ache and feel swollen. She took the head of his cock between her lips and let him slide into her mouth, stroking him with her tongue. She moved her head up and down over Jeff’s cock, his deep groans telling her that she was pleasuring him the right way.
She felt Ry’s fingers skim softly along her slit, one thick finger dipping into her channel opening.
“You’re dripping wet, babe,” he said, his voice a gentle growl. He slid his finger along her slit, teased her clit with circular motions, and finally eased inside the opening to her channel. He fucked her with his long, thick finger. He added another finger, stretching her, making her feel hot and needy. He withdrew his fingers, and she moaned with the loss of his tantalizing touch. She heard the sound of him working with something, a condom maybe. She heard other noises and felt the pressure of the head of his condom-covered cock push against the opening to her channel. He spread more cooling gel on her stretched flesh, and he pushed slowly inside her. He moaned deep in his chest.
“Does that feel all right, babe?” Ry asked her.
She pulled her mouth off of Jeff’s cock. “Yes,” she said, her voice a faint hiss, the pleasure so intense.
Then she felt cool liquid smoothed over her tight little hole. He circled her puckered rim with the tip of his finger while his cock stretched her pussy, pushing deeper inside her channel, so slowly. She could hardly concentrate on pleasuring Jeff with her attention drawn to what Ry was doing to her. He circled her little hole again. It felt so good and increased the aching heat in her pussy. She decided to give Jeff the same pleasure.
Releasing his cock, she rubbed her index finger and middle finger over the head of his cock and gathered some of the pre-cum from the little slit until her fingers were nice and slick, the tips covered with his pre-cum. She lowered her mouth back over his cock and move up and down the length of him, licking and caressing, drawing moans of pleasure from him. Then she slipped her fingers under his balls, lower between his butt cheeks and over his tight hole, caressing the puckered ring. His hips bucked, and he moaned ever deeper and louder.
“God, honey, what you’re doing to me,” Jeff said, his voice raspy.
She circled his tight hole, teasing the rim with her fingertips, pressing gently and then more firmly, just like Ry was doing to her.
Ry moved in and out of her pussy, deeper each time. She ached so good with the heat he created. He circled her rim, pressing firmly, creating even more pleasurable aches. Slipping his other hand under her belly, he rubbed her sensitive flesh gently. The need built, and then Jeff caressed her breasts again and squeezed her nipples, sending a zing of aching heat to her pussy. She pulled from his cock and cried out as her orgasm slammed through her. She bucked, and Ry growled deep in his chest as his cock jerked over and over inside her channel with his hard orgasm. Jeff’s cock jerked in her gripping fingers, and he bucked as she watched him arch into the pillow beneath his head, his cum spurting over his belly while she continued to tantalize his tight hole.
Ry groaned and placed a kiss against the nape of her neck. “That was incredible, babe. Thank you. Was it good for you?”
“Yes, it was fantastic. I loved what you did. Thank you, Ry.”
“God, hon, I’ve never come so hard, ever,” Jeff said. “That was amazing. Thank you.”
“I enjoyed it, too,” she said. “You guys give me so much pleasure.”
Ry eased slowly out of her, teasing her more. “How about we all head for the shower?” he suggested.
“Sounds good,” she said. She eased off the bed, and Jeff sat up and followed them into the shower.
After
they had washed off and slipped into the big fluffy terry cloth robes, they all three headed back to the bed. She crawled to the middle, and Jeff and Ry moved close to her sides after they took off their robes. She watched them get comfortable on the bed. They looked magnificent in their nakedness. They each curved a possessive, muscular arm over her.
“Will you stay the night?” Jeff asked her.
“Yes, I can stay all night and sleep in,” she said, feeling dreamily content.
“Good,” Ry said.
“You mean so much to us, Keri,” Jeff said.
“That’s the truth,” Ry agreed. “You mean more to us than anyone we’ve ever known.”
“I’ve come to realize you mean just as much to me,” she told them. “I’m afraid I’m falling for you hard, and I don’t even know that much about you.” She smiled at them and shook her head at their situation. “Can you tell me a little more about yourselves and your work?”
“That’s what we want to tell you, babe. We work as secret agents,” Ry said, his voice low and gentle.
Chapter Six
“Secret agents?” she repeated. She was instantly alert. My God, what did they do? What did that mean for their future relationship? Who were these two men she’d fallen so hard for? What were they involved in? She’d run from a dangerous situation and stopped here in Heat Springs, hoping to find a safe place to live in a new life. Instead, she’d fallen for two guys who had obviously questionable, and probably dangerous, jobs as secret agents.
“We feel that we need to tell you about our work, and we want you to know how committed we are to what we do,” Jeff said. “We need to remain incognito while we’re working undercover to find and arrest evil people, gangs, and organizations. We don’t talk about our background, but we both have wealthy parents, and as a result, we are as wealthy as they are. We keep that secret, as well, but we care so much for you that we want you to know everything about us. We were contacted years ago by a few men like us, who started the organization we work for, when they wanted to do something to help people in trouble.”
“Now they contact us and only those other people, who also want to remain secret,” Ry added, “to work with the agency known by the members as the Citizen Protection Organization. The work we do involves various situations and people who need help of some sort. The problems we face in helping people are often gritty and can cause major emotional upheaval.”
“I see,” she said, wondering exactly what they had to do in their work and if she had the ability to live happily with them while they were in danger.
“Ry and I, and the men we work with, want to remain hidden, or not who we seem,” Jeff said, “in order to keep our true identities secret, if possible. There’s a mix of different kinds of jobs between all the members, and we sometimes work with other secret groups in order to catch people who prey on innocents.”
“We also like to live away from big cities,” Ry said, “and we tend to live private lives, to the point of being reclusive at times. When we’re needed to help someone, or protect someone, we’re contacted by the organization.”
“We have a pledge that we all believe that promises to those who need help, or protection, plus those whom we love, that whatever you need, we’ll help you,” Jeff said, his face looking serious. “Anything you need, hon, Ry and I will give it to you or provide whatever help you need.”
“We’ll do anything for you, babe,” Ry said, his voice low and serious.
“It sounds like your work is dangerous at times,” she said, stroking their arms nervously.
“It can be,” Jeff said. “You remember that guy who grabbed you at the restaurant the night we met you?”
“Yes,” she said, wondering what he had to do with this.
“We need to let you know that he’s an aggressive bastard who has also threatened Mark and Tom and their lady, Brenda,” Ry said.
“He has also threatened us,” Jeff added. “He’s rock hunting up on the same hill where we’ve been searching for minerals that were supposedly left by a meteor impact in the past. This job was given to us by C.P.O., and that guy has told us to stay away from the area where he’s hunting, or else.”
“He could be dangerous,” Ry warned, “and we need for you to stay away from him if you see him anywhere. We’re investigating him and his reason for rock hunting. We’ll take care of him if he comes near you or threatens you again in any way.”
“What do you mean when you say you’ll take care of him?” she asked, concerned about their actions, as well as the possibility of them being injured.
“He’ll be put away for the rest of his life,” Jeff said, sounding definite.
She was surprised by their attitude. “That sounds a little extreme for a man who was hitting on a woman, even if it was me he was hitting on.”
“Does that change your feelings toward us, babe?” Ry asked her, sounding uncertain. “Have you decided you don’t want anything to do with us any longer?”
“No, it doesn’t change my feelings for you.” She wondered why he would ask her such a question. “But how do your feelings about that awful man balance against your desire to take care of people, to help and give people whatever they need?”
“He’s the very kind of selfish, abusive person we protect others against all the time, hon,” Jeff said.
She knew she wouldn’t stop caring for them, ever. In fact, she wanted them to make love to her right now. She’d never been treated so wonderfully by any men before, and she hoped they could continue to be lovers. But she couldn’t bring herself to tell them that, not yet, not until she felt more confident of their relationship, as well as what they did for their jobs.
She wished that they had told her from the start that they were secret agents and what kind of work they did. She’d certainly had no way of knowing that. “I’m concerned that, again, I’m in a situation where I didn’t know all the facts or truth before I got involved. I’m not so sure now that this relationship will work out between the three of us.” She felt the burn of threatening tears in her eyes.
“We’ll show you that it can work,” Jeff said, his voice a soft growl. “We love you so much that you’ll see that it will work out.”
“We’ll convince you that we love you so much that it’s meant to work,” Ry said, his expression earnest.
She hoped so because she truly wanted them in her life.
As they put their arms more snuggly around her, and they began to relax, she felt more secure. She wanted to belong with Jeff and Ry.

Morning came sooner than she was ready to get up and get going again. While she dressed, she could smell the wonderful aroma of coffee and sweet bread wafting through the house from the kitchen. She wondered who was fixing breakfast. Anxious to see, she dressed quickly and brushed her hair, readying herself to meet the day.
She slipped on her sandals and headed out of the bedroom and down the hall to the kitchen. To her surprise, she found both Ry and Jeff busy putting breakfast together. She heard the sizzle of something in a frying pan and looked to see what they were cooking. Ry turned bacon over to brown on the other side while Jeff stirred up some eggs with a little milk.
“Wow, you guys make a great team in the kitchen,” she said, smiling at them.
“What’s your pleasure, babe? Do you like scrambled eggs and bacon?”
“We also have sweet breads and coffee, which is ready if you’d like a cup,” Ry added. “There’s cream and sugar on the island where we put the plates and cups.”
“Great, I’ll fix myself a cup,” she said, smiling at them. “Is there anything I can do to help?”
“Nope, we’ve got it covered,” Jeff said. “There’s a pitcher of orange juice if you’d like some.”
“Yum, that sounds perfect,” she said. She helped herself to the various breakfast goodies and sat down at the island to wait for her boys. It wasn’t long before they’d finished cooking the eggs and bacon and put it on a big plate in the
middle of the island for them all to help themselves.
They sat down on either side of her, and she munched on a piece of wonderful sweet bread while they served up the eggs and bacon.
“Do you want to help yourself, or shall I help you?” Ry asked her.
“If you’ll help me, I’d like a medium-sized serving,” she said, smiling at him.
“What time do you need to be at the restaurant, babe?” Jeff asked her.
“I need to be there around an hour before lunch starts today.”
“We’ll get you to your place in time for you to change,” Ry said.
“We’d love it if you’d like to spend the night with us again,” Jeff said. “Would it work for you if we give you a lift to work today after you change and pick you up from work when you’re off?”
She thought about it for about ten seconds before deciding that would work just fine. “Yes, that would be great,” she said, smiling at both of them.
“We’ll pick you up when you’re finished at work then,” Jeff said, looking very happy. “If anything comes up to change your plans, just give us a call.”
“Okay, but I doubt that anything will interfere,” she said. “These eggs are delicious. You guys are good cooks.”
“Thanks,” they said at the same time.
“Help yourself to whatever you want,” Ry said.
After breakfast, she helped them clean up the kitchen. They had a little time before she needed to head home to change clothes, and they took their coffee out by the pool and sat in the loungers to enjoy it. The day was beautiful, and a soft breeze teased wisps of her hair. She wondered what it would be like to wake up every day with Jeff and Ry.
* * * *
Jeff was hungry. “Is it time to head over and pick up our girl?” Jeff asked Ry as they put the mineral-filled rocks into the backpacks they carried for their rock hunts.
“Yeah, we’d best finish here and head on over to the restaurant to get her,” Ry agreed. “We can have a late lunch at home after we pick her up.”
