Tempting Their Racy Shrink [Racy Nights 3] (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting)

The other package was small and square. Julie’s fingers shook as she opened it. Inside was a tiny book, complete with words. She almost had to squint to read the title: Lady Chatterley’s Lover. Julie stared at it with her mouth open, and then she read the note.
Wish we’d read this in high school rather than some of the lame shit we were forced to read. Saw this in Susie’s Gift Shop downtown and thought you’d appreciate it. I had a wonderful time last night, Julie. I can’t wait to see you again. Detective Sean.
Julie placed the gifts side by side on the counter and sat on a stool. She rested her chin in her hands, elbows on the counter, and cut her gaze from one gift to the next. Both men were handsome, charming and downright sexy as sin. But they were so different. She hadn’t seen that in school. She’d lumped them both together into the same class of unattainable fantasies as achieving an orgasm and having an actual date.
Her life had changed so dramatically in the space of one week that Julie’s mind was still reeling. She really should send Alexa a thank-you note. It if hadn’t been for her birthday party, none of this would have happened.

Maddox had just finished dressing for the evening when Bill called up to his room to let him know Sean was here. “Make him comfortable in the front parlor. I’ll be right down.”
Maddox sighed and descended the stairs. Sean was almost always here to help out on Friday nights, but never this early. He’d been expecting this visit ever since Sean’s empty threat Wednesday. The fact he’d been told this morning on the phone by Adison that it was all over town that Sean and Julie had been spotted cuddled up and cozy at the movies last night only added to his certainty that Sean was here to confront him again about Julie.
Had Sean weaseled his way into spending the night with her, and was coming now to declare his true love? That would be just like him. Maddox knew he’d had a secret crush on Julie since middle school. If Sean had any real balls he wouldn’t have waited all these years to do something about it.
“You’re early.” Maddox took a seat across from Sean. “Did you have dinner? I just finished, but there’s plenty of food if you’re hungry.”
“I’m not here to eat with you.”
“Okay.” Maddox crossed one ankle over his knee and leaned back in his chair.
“Julie and I had a long talk last night.”
“If that’s all you did with her on Valentine’s Day then you’re a bigger loser than I thought you were.”
“Knock it off, Maddox. I’m not going to sit here and brag about what else we did. You need to know this because she’s coming here tomorrow, and I’m sure you’re planning on having sex with her.”
“Among other things.”
Sean grimaced. “Can we be serious for a second? She told me some things about her past that I want you to be aware of. I don’t want her hurt.”
“Does she know you’re here telling me this?”
Sean leaned forward. “Look, I’m going to level with you. I’m crazy about this woman. I know…I know. I didn’t do anything about that for a long time. I was an idiot. But now that I’ve been with her, I’m not going to let her go. So if I have to share her with you, I at least need to know you’ll tread carefully.”
Maddox’s heart gave a strange lurch. What had started out as a game of seduction Friday night with Julie had turned into the hottest vanilla sex of his life. Well, to be fair, it hadn’t been entirely vanilla, but compared to what he’d done in the past, it had been downright tame. He hadn’t been able to get her off his mind since then. Hearing Sean’s words sent his blood boiling. The urge to punch him in the teeth right now was strong.
He’d been with her, as in the Biblical sense. There was no doubt about it. Maddox could almost smell the sex on him still. Fuck. Sure, he’d known it would probably happen, but hearing Sean say it was an entirely different experience than simply imagining it. Maddox uncrossed his leg and fiddled with a candleholder on the table next to him, wondering how big a dent it would make in Sean’s forehead.
“Are you listening to me?”
“Yes. Go ahead. Spill all of Julie’s secrets.”
Sean let out an exasperated sigh. “Maddox, do you realize what a sheltered life this woman has led? For heaven’s sake…she hadn’t even given a guy a blow job until last night.”
Maddox picked up the candleholder and palmed it, glaring at Sean. He was certainly going to make sure Maddox knew everything that they’d done, whether he wanted to hear it or not.
“She told me nothing happened in high school. Not with anyone. Not even with that geek Bobby Gibbons who started the rumors about her being a cold fish in bed. She never had sex with him. He asked her out on a date and she turned him down, so he spread a bunch of bullshit rumors that took off like a shot.”
Maddox swallowed hard. He and Sean had been among the kids who’d eagerly perpetuated those rumors, for no good reason other than that they could. Fresh guilt washed over him. They’d both treated Julie like shit. “What else did she say?”
“That she’d had two failed relationships as an undergrad. Two. That’s it. And when she finally had fallen in love as a grad student, the cheating prick taunted her about her lack of sexual experience and used it to hurt her. She’s believed the lies we helped spread about her for years—that she really is nothing but a frigid woman, incapable of enjoying sex. I'm guessing you now know as well as I do that nothing could be further from the truth.”
Maddox eyed Sean for several seconds, trying to get a handle on his emotions. He saw the same concern for Julie in Sean’s eyes that he had. He put down the candleholder. “Okay, Sean. Let’s just get it out in the open. You’re right. We were assholes, and we were dead wrong. Julie is a vibrant, sexual woman. I guess she just needed the right environment.”
Sean’s facial expression finally lost some of the desperation. “Or the right men,” he said quietly. “Which brings me to my dilemma. What the hell are we going to do about this? I saw the roses you sent her. I hate to admit this to myself, but I know it isn’t just a game for you. I know you care about her, too. So what the fuck do we do, Maddox?”
Maddox averted his gaze. He had no fucking idea what they were going to do.
“Before you answer, there’s something else you need to know. She made a startling confession last night.” Sean leaned forward, and the corners of his mouth turned up. “Our sweet, shy Julie has a secret fantasy that involves having sex with both of us, at the same time.”
Maddox stared at Sean, searching for any hint the bastard was toying with him. “No fucking way.”
“Oh, I’m telling the truth. Trust me on this one. That woman couldn’t lie if she had to.”
“What do you want to do about that?”
“As much as it kills me to say it, I want to give her the fantasy. Tomorrow night. Only I want it to be a surprise.”
Maddox frowned. “Explain.”
“She knows we’re both Doms, but we need to ease her into this, Maddox. She doesn't seem to have a lot of inhibitions, but she gets overwhelmed easily. Still, I know she wants this badly, and I’m willing to go along with it because it’ll make her happy. But let’s talk about it first. I don’t want this to be frightening for her. I want it to be erotic and intense but not so intense that she ends up afraid.”
Maddox let out a slow breath. As much as he’d rather it be someone other than Sean, he also realized that ultimately, Julie’s happiness was what he wanted most. “Okay. Let’s talk.”
Chapter Twelve
Julie had never been more nervous in her life. She almost called Maddox three times to cancel, not because she didn’t want to go, but because she was so afraid of doing or saying something stupid. And, she hated to admit it, but she couldn’t shake the guilty feeling. She knew she was being ridiculous. Maddox had no claim on her time or affections any more than Sean did, but she didn’t want either man to think she was stringing them along.
She finally called Kari late in t
he afternoon, hoping she wasn’t disturbing her.
“Julie, how nice to hear from you.”
“I’m a wreck.” She told Kari that she was going to the club to meet Maddox, and that she and Sean had spent Thursday night together. “I don’t have a frame of reference for dealing with this. And what do I wear to his house over the lingerie I bought? I mean I can’t just throw my coat over it and go like that, can I?”
“Slow down, Julie. It’ll be okay. I have an idea. Alexa and I are both going there tonight. Why don’t we swing by and help you dress, and that way we can all talk?”
“Are you sure that’s all right with her? I mean she’s not my client anymore, but it hasn’t been that long since we decided she no longer needs a therapist. ” Julie and Alexa hadn’t had a session in almost two weeks, but Julie still wondered whether Alexa might be uncomfortable having a girl-talk chat with her, especially about sex.
“I’ll ask her, and if she feels uncomfortable, I’ll come over on my own, okay?”
“Thank you, Kari.”
Kari and Alexa came armed with club wear, and by the time Julie was finally ready to leave, she wore a red latex top over her corset that buttoned all the way up to her collar and a black leather skirt over her stockings, crotchless panties and garter belt. Alexa suggested short black boots with bows on them, to match the bows on the corset.
Julie stood in front of her full-length mirror, turning from one side to the other, unable to believe she was the woman whose reflection she admired. “I’ve wanted to look like this my entire life.”
“You have,” said Alexa. “You simply weren't wearing the right outfit.”
Julie laughed. One of the things she’d always loved about Alexa was her matter-of-fact way of looking at the world.
“Will Maddox like it?”
“Ah, yeah,” said Kari. “Don’t expect to have those clothes on for very long.”
Julie blushed. “I can’t thank you two enough for this.”
“What are friends for?”
* * * *
Julie pulled up to the gate and gave her name to the person at the other end of the speaker. There was more than one vehicle she recognized parked next to the house. She nearly fell twice because of the damn boots. They had spike heels, and she wasn’t used to walking in them. It would be just like her to twist an ankle tonight.
Squaring her shoulders, she mentally started a dialogue of positive affirmations as she made her way up the front steps and rang the bell. A man dressed in leather and wearing a mask ushered her inside and motioned toward the staircase. “Maddox is expecting you. I’ll show you the way.”
She felt more self-conscious than ever when the man took her coat before leading her up the staircase. At least he walked in front of her and she didn’t have to imagine his eyes on her leather-clad ass or her pussy. The skirt was short enough that he’d probably be able to see it.
He led her directly to Maddox’s bedroom and knocked softly on the door. Before Maddox answered, the man left. Julie stood in front of the door, waiting. It still wasn’t too late to bolt. She clutched the small bag Alexa had given her, containing all the toys Maddox had sent, and her purse. What was she doing here?
When he opened the door, the light in his dark eyes and the warm smile on his face melted away her fears. She also realized how much she’d missed him.
“Julie, I’m so glad you came. Please…” He stepped back and allowed her to enter. The room was bathed in soft light and smelled like a combination of sage and lavender. It was heady and intoxicating, and immediately made Julie think again of Victorian boudoirs and clandestine lovers. The dark rich furnishings and damask draperies on the windows contributed to the image.
“I see you brought the toys I sent you.”
She handed him the bag, but he merely took it and placed it on a chair. “Let’s relax for a moment. Do you want something to drink?”
“Just water would be all right.”
“Come over here and sit down.” She followed him to the sofa and took a seat next to him, not sure what to do. He was dressed in leather, as he’d been last week, and she swallowed hard as he eyed her clothing. “Very nice. And appropriate. I’m pleased.”
“Kari and Alexa helped. I didn’t know what to wear.”
He smiled. “You did just fine. But what’s underneath the top and the skirt? I hope you followed my instructions.”
“I did. And it’s purple.”
“Good girl.” His voice washed over her, conjuring up memories of last week’s encounter. She let out a sigh as her pussy contracted in tiny spasms. “Now, let’s see…I think we’ll leave the boots on for now. I like them. But as for the rest…” He ran a hand up one leg, and Julie moaned softly. When he reached under her skirt, she moved her legs apart. He caressed her pussy, and she groaned.
“Shaved. Thank you. And crotchless panties. A very nice touch, Julie. I’m pleased.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
He chuckled softly. “You remembered. Now I’m even more pleased. You've been thinking about me all week, haven’t you?”
It was true. Why deny it? “I have been.”
“I’m honored, Julie. Truly I am. I’ve been thinking about you, too.” His hands parted her legs, and one finger slipped inside her soaking wet slit. Julie cried out. “I’ve been thinking about your lovely hair and your mouth, your firm breasts and delicious nipples.” He stroked her clit with his thumb while he slipped another finger into her pussy. Julie threw her head back and moaned as the climax built.
“I’ve been thinking about this ripe, wet hot pussy, and how much I want to suck it and lick it, and fuck it silly with my fingers and my dick.”
“Oh please…”
“Don’t worry. I’ll give you everything you want.” He began to unbutton her top with his other hand, and Julie just gave over and melted into his touch. He took his time with the buttons, while his other hand continued to gently tease her toward orgasm. “I know something you want, Julie.”
“Yes…” She could hardly form a coherent thought.
“Something dark and decadent and secret.”
“Oh…” That voice. It did things to her senses that she couldn’t even comprehend.
“But first I think we’ll play with one of the toys I sent you.” He took his fingers out of her pussy and rose. She watched him walk to where he’d placed the bag, pick it up, and walk back toward her. He moved like a jungle cat stalking its prey. That’s what Julie wanted to be—his prey. She wanted him to capture her and devour her with his hands, his mouth, and his cock.
He placed the bag on the floor next to them and pulled out the blindfold. She gasped slightly as he asked her to turn around. Once she did, he placed it around her head and then whispered close to her ear. “You remember your safe word, right?”
“Yes, Sir. It’s ‘red.’”
“Good girl.” He reached around and finished unbuttoning her top, and then gently took it off. “Very nice, Julie. I love the corset. Now stand up.”
He helped her do so, and when he pulled down the skirt she moaned. “Oh, Julie… you’ve outdone yourself with this outfit. It’s perfect.”
“Thank you, Sir.”
He kissed each ass cheek, and then removed her panties and helped her step out of them. Running his hands up the backs of her legs, he spread her ass cheeks and trailed his tongue over the opening to her anus. Julie cried out in surprise and pleasure. “I have a surprise for you, Julie.”
She wasn’t sure what he meant, but she hoped it involved more of his tongue on her body.
“It involves a fantasy of yours. Something I recently found out you’d like to try.”
Something in the tone of his voice made her pulse quicken and a quick jolt of anticipation course through her. Sean’s words on Thursday came back to her. “You want us both to lick you, and kiss you, and suck you.” But Maddox couldn’t possibly know about that. Unless Sean had told him.
“Would you like to know what it
is, Julie?”
“Yes, Sir.” Her voice shook. She suddenly didn’t want to know, but how could she tell him that?
“Then come with me.” He took her hand, which was slightly damp now, and led her across the room. Her knees touched what felt like a mattress. “We’re at my bed. Turn around and sit down, Julie. You’re okay.”
“All right.” She wasn’t okay. She was tingling with anxiety and had a strong premonition they weren’t alone in the room. When she caught the scent of Sean’s cologne she swiveled her head around, which immediately made her feel ridiculous as she was blindfolded and couldn’t see a damn thing. As she reached up to take it off, strong hands caught hers.
“It’s all right, Julie. No one is going to hurt you.” Maddox’s voice held a note of worry, and Julie was more afraid of that than anything. He let go of her arms and took one hand in his. “Relax your arm.” She forced herself to stay calm as Maddox took her hand and ran it over the unmistakable bulge of a dick encased in leather. She gasped slightly. When he took her other one and did the same to his erection, she knew she’d been right.
“Sean?”
“Yes, I’m here, too. It’s okay, Julie.” Sean’s voice was warm and sexy.
“Oh, shit.”
“Julie, it’s all right.” He sat next to her on the bed and took off her blindfold. “We wanted to give you this. We both did.”
She glanced from one man to the other, searching their faces. “Are you sure?” she whispered. “Are you both sure?”
“Julie, I’ve never been more sure of anything,” said Sean. His eyes danced with light reflected from the candles in the room.
“Now, be a good girl and put this back on.” Maddox took the blindfold from Sean, winked at her, and then placed it back on her head. “Or we’ll both have to spank you.”
