“I’m not picky. Whatever you fix will be fine.”
“I’ll see you downstairs then.” She hurried out the door, and he heard her tread on the stairs.
She didn’t seem any worse for wear after their marathon sex session last night. At least she didn’t act like she was sore. Then again, he doubted she would complain. She struck him as someone who would suffer in silence and would be too shy to mention anything to do with sex. He grinned. They would have her out of that in no time.
She’d proven last night that there was some spirit underneath her shyness. He, for one, planned to mine that spirit and bring it out to the light of day. He loved a feisty woman.
When he made it downstairs it was to find Elissa frowning over the contents of their fridge.
“What is it, baby?” he asked.
“Well, we have a choice of eggs and bacon, or I could make some pancakes.”
“Just make a couple of omelets for us. That will be fine. Have you seen Clint?”
“I think I heard him in the office.”
“I’ll go see if that’s where he is.” Gray patted her on the ass and walked around through the living room to the office.
Sure enough, Clint was sitting at one of the desks pouring over a book and muttering to himself.
“What’s wrong?”
“I’m just trying to figure out how many rows we need to till up for our garden. There isn’t anything in any of these books to tell me how much we need.”
“Maybe Elissa will know. We can ask her. If not, I’ll walk over to ask Cam or Phillip how many they are doing.”
“Sounds like a good idea.” Clint sighed and closed the book he’d been browsing. “How is Elissa this morning?”
“Seems to be doing fine. She’s cooked omelets for us for breakfast.”
“That sounds good. I’m hungry. I already ate a meal bar.”
“They should be ready by now. Let’s not get on her bad side by letting breakfast get cold.” Gray laughed at Clint’s quick walk toward the kitchen.
Sure enough, the omelets were ready, as was the coffee. She handed them each a cup and let them pour their own as she slid the last omelet out of the pan onto her plate. They ate in an awkward silence. Finally, Clint seemed to have had enough of it.
“Do you have any idea how many rows we need for the garden? We need to till them up today and get them ready for you to plant.”
Actually, I have a plan for it already mapped out. I’ll go get it for you.” She started to stand up.
“Hey, it can wait until after breakfast. Finish eating,” Gray admonished her.
She nodded and sat back down, but as soon as she had finished eating, she hurried upstairs. Clint and Gray rinsed off their dishes and placed them in the sink for her to wash. She walked into the kitchen with a folder.
“Here is my plan for the garden based on what they taught us on the shuttle.” She handed her drawings to Gray.
He studied them gave them to Clint. “Looks really well thought out. We can follow that easily enough. We’ll start on it this morning.”
She beamed at his praise, and he realized she must not have had a lot of it. He planned to change that. They were going to be living together for a long time. He wanted her to be happy. It surprised him that he had already formed an attachment to her so quickly. He looked over at Clint and wondered how he felt about her.
She laid her folder on the table and walked over to the sink to start dishes. He and Clint headed outside to see what they had to work with.
“So, what do you think about Elissa now?” Clint asked him.
“I’m pretty much taken with her. She’s really perfect for us, I think.”
“I feel the same way. She’s a little tiger beneath all that shyness. We just have to coax her out.”
Gray surveyed the area and found that at some point, Cam and Phillip must have broken up a garden spot for them to work with. It looked to be about the right size, too. He and Clint walked over to the shed and found the tiller.
“We can take turns running it until we get it all tilled up. I suspect it will take all day to do it. Land’s broken up pretty good, but it needs a lot more work to make it into a nice garden spot for her.” Gray pulled the tiller out of the shed and walked it to the garden area.
“I’ll walk around and see what I can find that she may need to steer clear of when she’s outside.” Clint walked off as Gray cranked the tiller.
He worked the land for the next two hours before Clint took over. He looked up to find Elissa walking out with a glass of tea for him. He wiped the sweat from his brow and thanked her for it.
“I appreciate it. I was getting thirsty.”
“If figured as much. It’s looking really good,” she said.
“We should have it ready to plant by tomorrow. That way you can have that out of the way before you are helping Lacy.”
“Good. I was worried about getting it finished in time. With her baby on the way, I figure I’ll be spending a good bit of time over there.”
“Clint has been looking over the area to see if there is anything you should stay away from. Be sure you follow our directions on that. We don’t want anything to happen to you, baby.”
“Don’t worry. I will. I don’t want anything to happen to me, either,” she said with a soft smile.
Gray leaned over and kissed her. She followed his mouth when he pulled back.
“Easy. I’m nasty, sweaty from working. There’s always later.”
She turned a becoming shade of pink and hurried back inside the house. He hoped he hadn’t said something wrong. He hadn’t meant to embarrass her, but she was so cute like that.
A little over an hour later, Gray took back over and thought about Elissa the entire time he was tilling the garden. His cock was already hard as a rock thinking about later. He was going to scare her if he didn’t tone it down a bit. But that was easier said than done when all he could think about was getting in her hot cunt.
* * * *
Elissa was happy with how the garden was looking. They’d followed her sketches perfectly. It made her feel good that they agreed with what she’d come up with. She couldn’t wait to get out there and plant. She was told the seed were from the last year’s crops. With the rich red earth of the planet and the second-generation seeds, she couldn’t wait to see how they did.
Then her mind turned to Gray and his parting comment about there always being later. She knew they would want to have sex a lot at first, but she wasn’t sure how she was going to hold up. She was sore this morning though she would never admit it to them. She wasn’t used to so much sex. Not that she was complaining, really. God, she’d never come so much in her life. They had taken good care of her. Would they always do that, or was it only because they were trying to get her through the first time with them?
Elissa forced herself to think of something else besides sex. There was plenty to do. She needed to look at what to fix for dinner that night. First, she would take Clint something to drink. He’d been plowing the garden for several hours now. He would be thirsty, too.
She poured up some tea and walked outside to where he was already taking a break. He smiled widely at her when he caught sight of her.
“Just what a man needs to see when he’s been working hard.” He took the tea and drained it almost in one gulp.
“The garden is looking very nice. You and Gray are doing a great job.”
“We want it to be easy for you to plant in. We need to remember to thank Cam and Phillip for breaking the ground for us. It made it really easy to plow.”
“I can’t wait to plant now. Gray said I should be able to tomorrow.”
“Yep, we’ll start rowing it up next.”
“Elissa, what are you doing distracting Clint? He’s supposed to be working.” Gray walked up and put an arm around her.
“Ew, you’re all sweaty,” she said and pushed him away with a grin.
“What have you been doing?” Clint asked
.
“Something had made a nest of sorts in the back of the shed. I’ve been cleaning it up.”
“Wonder what it was,” Elissa murmured.
“Don’t have a clue. I made a note of what the thing looked like so we can ask Cam and Phillip about it when we see them.”
“So, I suppose you want out of your time to plow,” Clint teased.
“No, I’ll plow. We need to keep to the schedule so it will be rowed up and ready for Elissa to plant tomorrow. Why don’t you show her the plants to avoid and where to steer clear of?”
“I can do that. Come on, Elissa. Let me walk you around the yard.” He wiped his sweaty hands on his jeans and held one out for her to take.
Elissa took his hand and allowed him to lead her. He pointed out the various plants and warned her away from some.
“These are pretty to look at, but dangerous to touch. If you get them around your mouth or eyes, they make you sick. No sniffing of them.” Then he pointed out a pretty purple flower. “You can pick these if you want to. Just stay away from the edge of the yard. I don’t trust that there aren’t wild animals around.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll stick close to the house. Have you noticed how dark green the grass is? It’s so thick it’s like walking on carpet,” she said.
“Yeah,” Clint said. “It is so similar to Earth here, yet so different.”
“Okay, this is the area between our house and Lacy’s. You can see theirs from here. See the pathway they’ve cut through the grass? You can walk between the two places if you really need too, but I would prefer you let us walk you back and forth, until we know how dangerous it might be.”
“Wow, the grass-and-weed stuff is almost taller than I am. It would be like walking through a forest. I’m not sure I would want to go through there alone anyway.” She shivered.
Clint pulled her into another hug. She couldn’t help but notice how muscular he was. It sent a flutter through her belly. Both men were that way, with tight washboard abdomens and strong arms.
“Let’s get you back to the house now. I’m sure it’s time for me to give Gray a break on the plow.”
He walked her over to the back porch. Before she turned to go inside, he leaned in and kissed her. This time it wasn’t just a peck or a quick press of the lips. He licked along hers and nibbled on her lower lip until she opened to him. Then he plunged his tongue in and explored her mouth with it. When he drew back, his eyes were heavy lidded.
“Go on inside before I take you on the back porch,” he said in a husky voice.
Elissa hurried inside and leaned against the back door for a few seconds trying to catch her breath. Wow, that had been amazing. She could taste him in her mouth. She could smell the masculine scent of his sweat on her skin.
Heat suffused her face at his parting words. Would he have really had sex with her on the back porch? Surely not. Really? She fanned her face then went and washed her hands and arms to make sure she didn’t have anything poisonous on her before she started dinner. The cool water did little to cool her down after that parting shot.
She had to force herself to concentrate on cooking and not what might happen later that night. She nearly burned the meal daydreaming about the men. If someone would have told her she would be thinking about sex with two men six months ago, she would have told them they were crazy. Now she couldn’t get the idea out of her head.
Several hours later, the men walked in the back door sweaty and arguing good-naturedly about something. They each walked over and gave her a quick kiss.
“We’re going up to shower. We’ll be down in about thirty minutes,” Clint said.
“I’ll have dinner on the table around that time. Don’t dawdle,” Elissa teased.
It seemed so much easier to do that now that they knew each other a little better.
Both men grinned and continued on through the kitchen toward the stairs in the other room. She heard their tread as they walked up them and the murmur of their voices. She found herself imagining them stripping from their clothes as they got ready to step into the shower. The thought of them standing beneath the spray with water sluicing off of them sent a shiver down her spine. She thought about licking the water from their bodies and immediately regretted it. Her pussy juices were wetting her panties.
With them upstairs, she couldn’t very well go up there to change panties. She would just have to hope they didn’t notice any wet spot on her jeans. Her face heated once again at her naughty thoughts. She really had to stop thinking about sex.
Chapter Four
The men stood up from the table and patted their bellies.
“That was a delicious meal, Elissa. Thanks,” Gray said.
“I’m full as a tick,” Clint added.
“You’re welcome. Cooking with some of these new things is an experiment each time.”
“We’ll be in the living room when you finish cleaning up,” Gray said, expecting her to join them.
She smiled and nodded then began clearing the table.
“The garden looks really good,” Clint told him as they headed toward the other room.
“I’m pleased with it. The ground is loose enough that she should be able to handle digging in it to plant. Remind me to pull out the tools she’ll need from the shed tomorrow. I really don’t want her in that shed until we’re sure that animal isn’t going to come back to make another nest.”
“Based on the size of the nest, how big do you think it is?” Clint asked.
“I’d say around two feet long, and stout. It had wallowed out a good-size hole.”
“Hmm, that could be several of those animals we saw in the booklets. At least it’s not that Mantis thing that looks so dangerous.”
“True,” Gray agreed.
“So, how do you think she’s doing today?”
“Elissa? I think she’s doing fine. Why?”
“I’ve been hard all day thinking about fucking her, but I don’t want to hurt her if you think she’s too sore.”
“You’re not the only one who’s had her on his mind. I’ve been imagining her sweet pussy around my cock all day.” Gray reached down and adjusted his dick.
“Man, I want to put my cock in that hot little mouth of hers. She licked me last night and it felt like warm sunshine.”
“I’m not sure asking for a blow job this early in the relationship is a good idea,” Gray said with a frown.
“Maybe you’re right. Still, the thought of her lips stretched around my cock has me hard enough to pound nails.”
“Let’s take it easy on her tonight. We were both kind of rough last night.”
“I guess you’re right. I was just so ready to bed her I wasn’t thinking straight. And after seeing her nude? Well, I guess I lost it.” Clint shook his head.
They each leaned back in their recliners in silence after that. Several minutes later, Elissa joined them. She walked toward the couch to sit down, but Gray righted his chair and called her over to him.
“Sit with me, Elissa. I want to hold you for a little while.”
She hesitated for a second then walked over and let him pull her into his lap. She sat there stiff as a board at first, but after a few seconds of rubbing her shoulders and upper arms, she relaxed and leaned back. She was still uncomfortable around them to a certain degree. He supposed it was going to take some time for her to get used to them. After all, they were complete strangers to each other.
With her in his lap, he realized he could smell her pussy. The little minx was wet. He grinned. She had obviously been thinking about sex. Imagine that. Their little shy wife was having illicit thoughts about them. He couldn’t help but tease her now.
He leaned in and whispered in her ear.
“I can smell your sweet pussy, baby. Are you wet for us?”
Her cheeks turned a cute shade of pink, and she stiffened up again.
“I–I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she said.
“Sure you do. It’s okay, Elissa.
We’re your husbands. You’re supposed to get wet thinking about us.” He nudged her hair aside and kissed her neck and then nipped at the spot between her shoulder and neck. She sighed and shivered.
“I’m going to go ahead upstairs and take my bath.” She scrambled off his lap.
He chuckled as she hurried up the stairs.
“What did you do to her, Gray?” Clint asked with a grin.
“Our little wife was wet. I could smell her cunt. I think I embarrassed her.”
“Let’s go fill out the paperwork in the office so we can get upstairs to help her in bed,” Clint said.
“I bet she has on a nightgown when we get up there.” Gray chuckled. “I can’t wait to take it off her.”
They hurried into the office and breezed through the paperwork, outlining their day and what they’d discovered about the strange animal burrowing in their shed. Gray paused over the pamphlet of animals and finally opened it to see if there were any he could suggest. There proved to be several, including a doglike creature with a mouth full of dangerous-looking teeth. He didn’t like the idea of that being so close to the house. He would have to remind Elissa to steer clear of it.
“You about ready to head upstairs?” Clint asked.
“Right behind you.”
They turned off the lights downstairs after checking that all the doors were locked tight. Then they headed upstairs. Gray was looking forward to tonight.
Sure enough, Elissa was already in the bed with a nightgown on. He grinned and winked at Clint. They each stripped and climbed into bed with her. She was pretending to be asleep. Gray turned toward her and began kissing along her jawline.
“I know you’re not asleep, Elissa. Your heart is beating ninety to nothing in your chest. I can almost hear it.”
Clint was sucking on her neck on the other side and chuckled. He lifted his head and began kissing her temple and then her cheek.
Gray ran a hand down her belly under the covers and made soft circles there until she opened her eyes. He saw nervousness in them. He leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips.
“Let’s get this gown off of you, baby. I don’t want you to ever wear anything to bed with us. We’ll keep you warm at night.” He inched up her gown with his fingers until it was bunched under her breasts.
