Closing the front door behind him, Kane put his bag down so he could take off his coat and boots. He wasn’t disappointed that no one greeted him. He had purposely kept the time of his return a secret, wanting to surprise his partners. A smile lifted the corner of his mouth as Henry came running. He did so without barking, which was a surprise in itself. Kane bent to rub the dog’s ears before he headed up the stairs and into the living room.
He laughed softly as he saw Chase and Chance asleep on the sofa, Chase seated with his head tipped back, and Chance stretched out with his head on Chase’s thigh. There was a fire and music playing softly. Glancing around, he saw that the Christmas tree was gone, replaced by decorations for New Year’s Eve. He was happy he had been able to return in time to celebrate with them. He had also wanted to be there for their debut at the Silver Edge.
Leaning over, Kane pressed a kiss to Chase’s mouth, his tongue stroking along where they were parted slightly. Chase moaned, but didn’t wake. Kane fought a smile and deepened the kiss. A low groan and an arm lifting to curl around the back of his neck told Kane, that Chase was now awake and participating fully in the kiss. Their tongues began to duel, stroking and teasing, until the need for air forced Kane to lift his head.
“Hey, babe,” he whispered against Chase’s lips. “Miss me?”
Chase’s hand stroked the side of his face. Kane’s eyes closed as he savored the sensations the tender touch brought out in him. “Yes, but I thought I made that perfectly clear when I called you earlier. I take it you were already on your way?”
“Yes, about an hour in.” He straightened and walked around the couch to look down at Chance, who hadn’t stirred.
“Are you hungry?”
“No, I ate on the plane.”
“It must be nice to have a crew to wait on you hand and foot,” Chase teased. “Wish my life was so hard.”
Kane laughed and walked toward the fire. “It’s certainly not a hardship, but I wasn’t alone on the way back. Colt’s cousin, Finn, was with me. We flew down to Boston to pick him up.” Chase stood up, letting Chance’s head drop to the cushion. Kane chuckled and shook his head. The man hadn’t even stirred. “Long day?”
“Yeah, practice, shopping, and we went over to work the horses. We saw Ellen when we went for lunch. She was with the friends who are visiting her. If you meet them, watch out for Kristina. She pinched my ass.”
“I’ll remember that.”
Chase bent down to shake Chance awake. “Wake up. Kane’s home.”
That woke Chance up completely. He was off the sofa in a heartbeat and in Kane’s arms. “Hey, handsome. I missed you,” he told Kane, his voice husky with sleep. His blue eyes were bright with his love. “I hope you don’t have to leave again for a while.”
“I shouldn’t have to. That’s what I pay managers for. This one was just a little overwhelmed by a flooding river, but he’ll do okay now. I think he was afraid I would be an irrational asshole and blame him for something completely out of his control.”
“I suppose there are assholes that are like that. As long as everything’s good now?” Chance asked, his hands beginning to roam over Kane’s body.
Kane was willing to talk about his work with his partners, but his brain was heading off in another direction. As far as he was concerned, he had been gone too long. He had missed Chance and Chase, as he always did. Unfortunately, the business he had chosen meant he had to travel from time to time. Depending upon how his latest acquisition turned out, he would consider selling two or three of the less profitable hotels. It would be a while, however, before the Paradise Lake property was up and running. Hell, he had only just signed the final papers on it. The contractors would be heading in to see what needed to be done. The previous owner had done a fairly good job keeping the place maintained. Kane hoped to have it ready for its grand opening by the end of the following year, in time for winter vacationers. His brother Magnus was moving from New Orleans to help out. Kane hoped Magnus would decide to stay and make Silver his home. They didn’t see nearly enough of each other, something he hoped to change.
“Everything’s good,” he said. “I’m going to check my emails before I head to bed. I’ll let Henry out for a few minutes, if you guys want to head upstairs.”
Both men shook their heads. Something was going on. He could tell because there was excitement in their eyes. “We have a surprise for you. Let’s go to your office.”
Once in his office, Kane waited for the surprise to be revealed. One of them turned on the light and he saw it. Sucking in his breath, he stared at the painting over the mantle. “It’s gorgeous.” Claude Monet was Kane’s favorite artist. He was aware the painting was a reproduction, but it didn’t make it any less valuable to him. Turning toward the two men he loved with all his heart, he gave them a smile. “Wow. I mean, really. It’s incredible! Thank you both. I will always cherish it.” He hugged them close, feeling the bond he shared with them reaching into his soul. Their warm, hard bodies reminded him of other things, too, of how he had missed them, of how he needed to be with them in the most intimate manner possible. “The emails can wait until tomorrow. Let’s walk Henry so we can go to bed.”
It took longer than expected to walk Henry. He decided it was a good time to flip his rope toy into the snow drifts and then jump in to search for it and none of them had the heart to put an end to his fun. By the time they got to their bedroom, they were chilled. A hot shower took care of that. Then they were piling in the bed, eager hands reaching out, warm lips finding damp skin, teeth marking it.
On his back, Kane kissed Chance as Chase licked his way down Kane’s stomach and beyond, the tip of his tongue leaving a wet trail. Kane moaned into Chance’s mouth as the head of his cock was sucked into a hot mouth. He shuddered as pleasure shot through him.
A strong hand slid between his thighs, stroking the sensitive, hair-roughened skin there, before cupping his balls. Chase’s mouth began to work down the length of Kane’s throbbing cock.
When Chance broke off the kiss, Kane tapped his hip. “Up here,” he told Chance.
Kane rose up and piled the pillows behind him. Chance, grinning, straddled him and offered his cock. They looked at each other as Chance leaned forward, bracing himself with one hand on the headboard, to offer his cock to Kane.
The tip of his tongue slid over and around the small slit in the blood-engorged head, dipping in to lick away the trickle of pre-cum leaking from it. Kane savored Chance’s unique flavor. Inhaling the man’s musky scent, he moved his head forward to take Chance’s cock into his mouth. Chance pushed encouragingly. Kane relaxed his jaw, allowing Chance’s cock to slide further into his mouth. Kane gripped the mounds of Chance’s ass, holding on tightly as he hollowed his cheeks and sucked on the flesh filling his mouth. Chance began to steadily fuck Kane’s mouth, each stroke sliding over Kane’s tongue and to the back of his throat.
He tasted his lover, he inhaled Chance’s scent. Droplets of pre-cum were spread over his tongue, making him hungry for more. The tips of his fingers pressed into the solid flesh of Chance’s ass, gripping him tightly.
Kane’s own need to come was close. Chase was now sucking on his balls and stroking Kane’s cock. It wouldn’t be long. Hell, it wasn’t going to be another five seconds. He felt his balls tighten, pulling close to his body. Chase released them to take Kane’s cock back into his mouth, taking it to the root as Kane came hard, cum pumping from his balls to fill Chase’s mouth. He groaned around Chance’s cock. The flesh hardened in his mouth and began to throb, sending warm jets of cum to the back of his throat. Kane swallowed, continuing to hold tightly to his lover as he drained the man dry, moaning again as Chase did the same to him.
Once Kane and Chance recovered, they shifted on the bed and focused their attention on Chase. Kane reached for his lover, pulling him into his arms, kissing him deeply as Chance gave the man’s aching cock his full attention. There was no surprise when Chase came seconds later, Kane capturing the groan
signaling his completion. Pulling away, Kane licked and nipped Chase’s swollen lips, and stroked his body tenderly.
“Maybe I should take more trips,” Kane teased as he fell back onto the pillows. “The welcome-homes are fantastic.”
Chase laughed as he cuddled against Kane’s side, with Chance on the other. “If you stay home, you would get more hot loving from us.”
“An excellent argument. I’m considering selling three or four properties. But we’ll talk about that later, after we get some sleep.” Although Kane ran the business, Chase and Chance were partners. He wouldn’t make any major decisions without consulting them. It was, after all, part of their financial future. “I believe Paradise Lake will more than make up for selling them.”
“And it’s local, which is a huge bonus,” Chance said. “But like you said, we’ll talk about it later.”
Chance playfully tweaked one of Kane’s nipples. Kane retaliated by pinching his ass. Chance yelped and smacked Kane on the chest. With his blood running a little more hotly than it had been a moment before, Kane slid his fingers into Chance’s hair to grip it tightly. Pulling the man’s head back to expose his throat, Kane began to bite the side of Chance’s neck.
“Oh, you woke the beast. I guess he’s not as tired as he thought he was.” Chase was teasing, laughing as he wrapped his fingers around Kane’s revived cock. “Pretty solid for an old guy who just got off ten minutes ago.”
“I’ll show you old. Now, come here.”
A half hour later Kane fell into an exhausted heap between Chase and Chance. They cuddled close, finally ready to sleep. With his eyes closed, his world was no larger than the bed. Everything important to him was there with him.

Kane stood backstage, wondering what demon had run off with his brain. He was dressed in black chaps, a cowboy hat, and little else. The little else was a scrap of black satin barely covering his cock and balls, with a string running up his ass. His lovers had spent hours begging him to join them on stage for their debut at the Silver Edge. He knew the routine well, having watched and joined in, as they practiced at home.
Now Kane watched as Chase and Chance stood nearby, speaking with Ruby Sullivan. The tiny drag queen was animated as always, her small hands flying in all directions as she spoke. She was wearing a gold sequined mini dress, showing off her incredible legs and what had to be six-inch heels on her small feet. She was smoking hot and had a voice to match. Kane would remain backstage while Chase and Chance performed with Ruby. He would join his partners for the finale, something he hoped he didn’t regret. It wasn’t that he was shy. Not by a long shot. It was just that he was getting to the age where dancing provocatively on a stage might not be the best choice. Who wanted to see a man old enough to be a grandfather dancing in next to nothing? Maybe he would be out there to satisfy the middle-agers and senior members in the audience. The thought made Kane chuckle. He relaxed and waited. Soon he was watching Ruby explode onto the stage, setting the tone for the evening with her velvety voice and the blood-stirring song she had written. They had her new CD and Ruby’s talent simply amazed him.
Now Kane watched and listened as raptly as the audience. Chance and Chase were sexy props for the diva. She stroked and touched, moving around them like a shimmering golden cat. Kane wasn’t surprised when his cock began to fill with blood. Grimacing, he tried to make room for it but failed.
Two more songs later, his sexy men moving around the stage, their teasing of the audience moving them ever closer to critical level, Kane was ready to head back to the dressing room to jerk off. His heart stopped when the clapping and cheering began, signaling it was time for him to make his appearance. Chance and Chase followed Ruby off the stage and headed toward Kane. He pushed his hat down tight on his head, as if he were preparing for a hard ride on a bronc or bull, and took a deep breath. Then he was joining his partners just behind the curtain. It was drawn back on both sides, but the lights normally hitting the stage were dark. Kane was front and center, Chase flanking him slightly behind on the left, Chance on his right.
The music started, the lights hit them, and the screaming began.
Kane really would make his partners pay for this, he thought, as the popular song got everyone’s blood going. Well, it was either the lyrics, or the three of them turning and shaking their asses provocatively for the enthusiastic audience.
When Kane spun around he came face to face with a woman. She laughed and threw her arms around his neck, hugging him tight as she lifted up on her toes to plant a kiss on his mouth. Just when he believed she would never release him, she did so. Then she was dancing around him, slapping him on the ass before running her hands over him from shoulder to thigh.
Kane continued dancing, managing not to trip over the excited, happy woman. He was amused and the audience seemed to love it. He stroked a hand over his chest and abs, lingering at the narrow leather strap holding the chaps in place, before stroking the front of the thong as his hips moved in a slow circle. He didn’t even blink when the woman’s hand joined his, giving his junk a firm squeeze.
“Woo-hoo, Donna! You go, girl!” This encouraging shout was obviously from a friend in the audience.
* * * *
Ellen laughed and cheered along with everyone else in the audience as they watched the three hot cowboy dancers on the stage. Her friend Donna was up there with them, but the men didn’t miss a beat as she danced, pranced, shook it, and waved her arms above her head, as she wove her way around and between them. Ellen gasped and then laughed when Donna’s hand boldly mimicked Kane’s, to stroke the impressive bulge behind the scrap of black cloth.
When Kane suddenly grabbed Donna by the hips, pulling her back against his groin to thrust and grind against her, the expression on her face was priceless. It was the only moment when Ellen regretted the ban on cameras and phones in the club. The thought no sooner went through her mind when Kristina and Nancy suddenly slid out of the curved booth and hurried toward the stairs, abandoning Ellen. Within seconds they were on the stage and dancing their hearts out until the music ended.
Ellen’s three friends were triumphant as they kissed Chance, Kane, and Chase. They waved to the audience as they hurried off the stage. Her best friends were nuts. They always had been. It was why she loved them so much.
Kane, Chase, and Chance stepped close to the edge of the stage. They lifted their hats and bowed. Ellen clapped as they turned and walked away, displaying broad shoulders, trim waists, and sculptured bare asses. She sighed, wondering if they would mind if she chose the middle of the night to pay them a visit. She had already been horny, but after watching them on stage, her pussy was aching fiercely, needing to be filled by them.
“Do you think we’ll get tossed out?” Donna asked as they slid back into the booth. Each woman reached for their drinks.
Laughing, Ellen shook her head. “I doubt it. Colt might reconsider having the stairs to the stage removed, however.” All three women knew Colt. They had grown up in Silver and were about his age.
“Honey, I didn’t need stairs,” Donna told her. “I would have vaulted up there if necessary.”
Kristina was giggling and sipping a bright blue drink. Ellen wondered how much alcohol was in it. Kristina was beginning to lean to the left slightly.
“Those cowboys of yours are hot,” Nancy informed Ellen needlessly. Kristina giggled and nodded vigorously. She had a straw in her drink now and was sucking it down. Ellen was getting slightly concerned. “I might have to consider moving back to Silver and find some cowboys of my own.”
“Me, too,” Kristina agreed after sucking the last drops of liquid from between the ice cubes. She was now listing to the right and her eyes didn’t seem to be focusing. “I’ve never seen so many good-looking men in one place.” She placed the empty glass on the small table between them. “Will your boyfriends be coming out?”
“I don’t know.” Ellen suppressed a grin. Donna was now attempting to put Kristina in an upright
position. She tilted toward Nancy, who just laughed and braced their friend with one hand. “And they really aren’t my boyfriends. We’ve only been dating for a few days.”
“You haven’t gotten any nookie since we’ve been here,” Kristina said, hiccupping loudly. She laughed and grinned. “If I were you, I’d dump us and go get some.” She was weaving in her seat now, and turning her head to look at Donna. “Did you feel how solid the ass was on the big one? You could bounce a quarter off that sucker.”
“You’re drunk,” Nancy finally accused. “You never could hold your liquor.”
“Party pooper,” Kristina shot back. “Let’s go back to see if Ellen’s hunky boyfriends need any help getting dressed.” She began to scoot as if to get out, but Nancy wasn’t moving.
“You’re not going anywhere. We’re going to sit right here and enjoy the entertainment. And you’re going to drink water the rest of the night,” Nancy told Kristina firmly.
“Am not. I can drink if I want to.” The words were beginning to be slurred. Ellen just shook her head and smiled. “Don’t make me hide your bacon in the morning.”
That was a very serious threat. No one messed with Nancy’s bacon. She glared at Kristina, not that Kristina noticed. “You don’t want to go there.”
“Go where?”
Ellen shook her head again and looked toward the stage. The band was playing softly in the background. She knew there was a lot of entertainment planned, but she doubted they would stay until the end. She would rather go to the square and watch the firework display. It was always quite spectacular. Her daughters and her grandchildren would be there. Yes, that was what she would do. Her friends could stay at the club or leave with her. She wouldn’t be hurt if they decided they wanted to stay.
A scantily clad male server brought the drinks Ellen requested, one of which was water for Kristina. She looked around and saw three tall figures moving through the club toward them. The men were now fully dressed and looking perfectly yummy in white shirts and dark suits. She wondered how they could look as sexy dressed like this, as they did when they were naked.
