“It’s still awfully cold out there. We might not get any more snow, but it will be a while ’til it melts.” Jeb walked over and wrapped his cold arms around Drew.
“Hey, you’re like ice. Go warm up by the fire before you touch me.” She turned to Marshall. “That goes for you, too.”
They grumbled all the way into the living room to stand in front of the fire. Drew followed them and stood a few feet away. She cocked her head at them and smiled.
“What are you smiling about?” Marshall looked suspicious of her.
“Just thinking that I could use a nap before evening chores and supper.”
“We need a shower first. Want to scrub our backs?” Jeb asked.
“Hmm, I could be persuaded to do that. What’s in it for me?”
“How about mind-numbing sex?” Marshall reached out and pulled her into his slightly warmer embrace.
Drew shivered. “Make it a hot shower, and you have yourself a deal.”
The men didn’t wait for second thoughts but grabbed her up and hurried her up the stairs to the bedroom. She giggled all the way, thinking about how much she loved playing with them. They were serious about work but fun after work. She liked that.
“Got the water going to get it hot. Strip out of those clothes quick, woman. Don’t want to waste any of it.” Jeb began tossing clothes left and right.
Marshall and Drew were way ahead of him. They jumped into the shower and began a mutual soap party before Jeb made it in. They formed a circle and began soaping each other’s backs, buttocks, and legs. Then they all rinsed and turned around so that each man took half of her to soap and play with. Once they were finished playing with her breasts, Drew was about ready to come. She soaped up both of them at once and drew circles in the suds on their chests. She paid close attention to their cocks and balls.
“Oh, man, that feels good,” Marshall crooned.
“Rinse off, boys. I’m going to lick you dry.”
She didn’t have to tell them twice. They immediately fought for the spray of the shower to be the first in her mouth. She made them stand close together and began licking first one cock, then the other. She used long strokes with each one. She drew out each lick until both men complained and demanded she suck their dicks.
Laughing, she sucked the head of Jeb’s in her mouth and tongued the slit to taste his cum. Then she did the same to Marshall, causing him to hiss and reach for her head.
“Uh, uh, uh. You can’t touch me until I tell you to. Just stand there, and take it like a man.”
Jeb cursed when she sucked his cock to the back of her throat and swallowed around him. When she added a hand to his balls, he came up on his tiptoes and grabbed her head and face-fucked her. He used tight, short strokes that soon had him coming in her mouth. She hummed her pleasure when he shot cum down her throat. After she’d swallowed and licked him clean, she rinsed her face and turned to Marshall.
“Are you going to be a big boy and let me have my wicked way with you? Or are you going to cheat?”
“Depends on how good it feels. I don’t have a lot of willpower where your oral skills are concerned.” He chuckled until she sucked him down her throat.
She knew how Marshall liked a bit of pain with his blow jobs, so she added a scrape of teeth to his cock head, then licked it and sucked beneath the head before going all the way down on his thick cock. She hummed with him deep in her throat, then squeezed his balls and felt them draw up in her hand. He cursed and leaned into her with both hands on the back of the shower stall.
Drew knew he was close and trying to prolong it, but she had other plans. She raked her nails across his ball sac then swallowed around his cock while it was lodged deep in her throat. He immediately began to shoot cum down her throat, nearly choking her in its intensity. He drew out part of the way and filled her mouth. She swallowed and licked him clean.
“God, you’re amazing,” Marshall gasped.
They both rinsed off and stepped out of the shower, where Jeb had a towel waiting on Drew. Marshall teased him that he didn’t have one waiting on him.
“You can get your own towel.”
“I’m feeling a bit neglected. Think one of you could hold out long enough to fuck me?”
“Baby, we’re going to make you feel good. Just climb up on the bed, and leave it to us.” Jeb grabbed two condoms, tossing one to Marshall.
Marshall winked at her. He pressed his way between her legs to run his nose up her slit, then his tongue back down it. Drew giggled and wiggled her hips. Marshall put his hand on her pelvis to hold her still as he began licking and sucking her pussy lips into his hot mouth.
When another mouth closed around her breast, she moaned. She loved having her nipples sucked on and pinched. She liked a little pain with her pleasure as well. Jeb knew this and gave her teeth as he nibbled on her tit. He molded her other breast and tugged on her nipple. She shoved her chest up into his face, holding on to his hair in an effort to keep them there where she wanted him.
Then Marshall chose that moment to lick a long, slow slide over her clit and shove two fingers in her cunt. She screamed out and began to buck against his fingers as he licked her clit over and over. Still, it wasn’t enough. When he located her G-spot and began to curl his fingers into it, she flew higher, growing tighter and tighter. Still, it wasn’t enough. Fire burned in her veins. Heat filled her face. Then, as if predesigned, Jeb pinched and bit her nipples while Marshall sucked in her clit while stroking her hot spot. She came hard enough that she saw the stars she had wanted to see in the snow.
She squeezed her eyes shut to clear them of the tears, but it didn’t work. Instead, they flowed faster, and she had to turn over to catch her breath. Marshall chose that moment to lift her leg and enter her in one quick jab that took what was left of her breath away. He didn’t go slow but set a quick pace designed to bring him satisfaction quickly.
When he changed the angle though, it rubbed against nerve endings that instantly came alive. She couldn’t believe she could possibly come again, but she quickly reached the pinnacle and flowed over it in one fell swoop. Seconds later, Marshall grunted out his release and collapsed with him still inside her. She panted and pushed him off of her.
“Heavy.”
“Sorry.”
Jeb laughed and pulled her off of Marshall. Then he rolled her completely over until she had her ass up in the air for him. She was going to die. She just knew it. There was no way she could possibly live through another fuck, but she wouldn’t deny him his pleasure.
He slapped her ass twice before spreading it and stuffing his thick cock inside her swollen cunt. He entered her in quick jabs before bumping up against her cervix. She felt his balls slap her pussy lips. When he began to move again, she moaned and slowly pushed back to meet him. He gathered her pussy juices from beneath her and ran them around her little rosette before stuffing his thumb carefully inside her. She relaxed, and he soon had a rhythm going.
Drew huffed out a breath as the burn started once again. He rubbed against nerve endings in her ass that complemented the ones in her pussy he was touching as he fucked her. She slowly felt a warm rush through her as Jeb began to speed up and groan. He was soon banging into her so hard and fast she moved up the bed until Marshall stopped her from hitting her head on the headboard.
“Fuck, Jeb. She’s going to go clear though the wall into Kenny’s room if you keep that up.”
“Can’t get enough of her,” he managed to get out.
Seconds later, he hollered out and shot his cum deep into the condom. He carefully pulled out from deep inside her and disappeared into the bathroom. When he returned, he cleaned her up with a wet towel and climbed into bed beside her. Marshall flung an arm over her belly as Jeb did the same. Neither man moved after that, and Drew was left awake to contemplate the loving they’d given her. They each filled a part of her the other one didn’t. It was like having the perfect lover, only she had two of them.
Maybe she shoul
d tell them how she felt about them. Maybe if they knew she loved them, they might think about staying. Then again, it could backfire and push them away from her. There didn’t seem to be an answer, no matter how hard she searched.
She still tingled all over from their lovemaking. Yet, despite the thrill of it, she fell asleep.
Chapter Seventeen
Jeb and Marshall left Drew asleep in the bed and snuck downstairs in only their thermals to get dressed in front of the fire. Kenny walked out of the kitchen to catch them zipping up their pants.
“Didn’t want to wake Drew up, huh?”
“Nope, she could use the sleep.”
“I’d expect so after what you put her through,” Kenny teased.
“Mind your own business. We didn’t say anything about you and Robert banging the wall the other night,” Jeb said.
Kenny actually turned red but grinned. “Sorry.”
“No you’re not, and neither are we.” Marshall pulled on his shirt and buttoned it up.
“I already took care of the horses. Was just getting a cup of coffee before working on the herd.”
“We’ll handle the herd tonight. You shovel some snow then come on back in.” Jeb headed for the kitchen and some coffee.
He poured a cup and handed it to Marshall then poured one for himself. They sipped on it until they had finished it.
“Might as well get on with it,” he said.
They bundled up and opened the door to the frigid cold air. They loaded the truck full of hay then backed it up to the fence line. They both got out to fork over hay into the pasture for the cows.
“Marshall, we’ve got a problem.”
“What kind of a problem?” He didn’t seem worried.
“Your condom leaked when I pulled you off of Drew. It had a small hole in it. Mine broke. Hell, I knew better than to be so rough, but I couldn’t get far enough inside her. I wanted all of her.”
“We’ve got to tell her,” Marshall pointed out. He still didn’t sound worried.
“You don’t sound too upset about it.”
“I’d never force her into anything she didn’t want, but maybe this will make her think about a long-term relationship with us. I’m all for approaching her with it.”
“Maybe you’re right. I guess we are going to see. We need to be careful and not make her think it’s the only reason we’re interested in settling down.”
“True. I hadn’t thought about that.” Marshall leaned on the pitch fork and stared at Jeb.
“I almost forgot we were convicts. Living here and being treated like humans and not animals sort of made me feel normal for a while. What decent woman is going to want to settle down with us?” Marshall huffed out a breath and returned to forking hay over the fence.
Jeb knew how he felt. He’d been feeling relaxed and, well, cared about for the first time in years. It felt good. He didn’t want to lose that. He didn’t want to lose Robert and Kenny for friends, but mostly, he didn’t want to lose Drew.
They finished up with the herd and cleaned out the truck before parking back near the hay barn. They followed the rope back to the barn and checked in on the horses then met Kenny shoveling the path to the house.
“Come on in, Kenny. That’s good enough for the night. Since we’re not supposed to get any more snow for the night, I think we’ll be fine to work on it tomorrow.” Jeb patted him on the back.
They walked into the kitchen and hung up their outerwear to find Robert cooking fried chicken and the makings for a sit-down supper to make your eyes water.
“Drew’s in the living room,” Robert told them.
“Um, guys, could you give us a few minutes alone in there?” Marshall asked.
“Sure. We’ll stay in here,” Kenny said, giving them a strange look.
They found Drew curled up on the couch with her hands wrapped around a cup of coffee. She looked so peaceful. Jeb hated to bring anything up that might change that expression on her face when she saw them walk in. Her entire face lit up. He wanted to see that look for the rest of his life.
“How are the cows doing out there?”
“They’re fine. Eating plenty of hay and staying together.” Marshall sat on one side of her.
Jeb chose to stand up in front of the fireplace.
“Drew, we need to talk about something.”
Jeb almost went to her when her face drained of all color. She was thinking something terrible. Was she worried they were thinking about leaving?
“What is it?” She’d closed down, sounding cold now.
“Um, earlier when we were having sex…”
“Making love,” Marshall interrupted him.
“Yeah?”
“Well, Marshall’s condom leaked, and mine broke. We felt like you needed to know.” Jeb waited for her reaction.
“I see. And what are you suggesting?”
Marshall hurried in front of Jeb. “Just that we want you to know that we care about you more than anything, and no matter what happens, you’re who we want to spend the rest of our lives with.”
Drew pulled in a deep breath and turned to Jeb. “And do you feel the same way?”
“Maybe even more so. I’ve wanted to say something for a long time but didn’t feel like you’d welcome it from a couple of ex-cons like us.”
“I’ve never cared about your past, Jeb.”
“Maybe not as ranch hands and maybe not as friends but as lovers? I didn’t dare hope.”
Marshall took her hands in his. “What happened with the condoms isn’t why we’re confessing how we feel about you. It just pushed it up. We were sort of hoping to wait until we had some money to maybe put into the ranch ourselves.”
“I—I don’t know what to think. I want to believe you. But why would you want to tie yourselves to me? This is what I want out of life. Just this ranch. I don’t have any grand plans of becoming a huge spread with a thousand head of cattle.” She licked her lips. “Kenny and Robert may be moving here and building their house here to live.”
“That doesn’t bother us at all,” Jeb rushed to assure her. “We like them and think they’re great men.”’
“It will mean a lot more speculation and outright harassment from the town folk.”
“Had that already. It’s not going to bother us,” Marshall assured her.
“I need to think about it. This is sort of sudden, and I can’t help but believe you only feel this way in case I get pregnant.”
“I know you feel that way. But it isn’t true. We already feel that way about you. You’re everything we’ve ever wanted in a woman.” Jeb walked over and pulled her to her feet to kiss her.
Marshall wrapped his arms around her from the back and kissed the back of her neck.
“Just think about it, okay? Nothing’s changed.”
Drew smiled a tentative smile and wrapped her arms around both men before ushering them into the kitchen for supper.
* * * *
Drew couldn’t believe her ears. They confessed they wanted her for more than a few months and then told her that she might be pregnant by one of them. She’d waited so long to hear those words from them. Well, that they loved her would have been better, but she figured men like them didn’t use words like that. Still, now she didn’t know if they were just saying that because of the damn condom problems or because they really meant it.
She lay in her bubble bath in the spa tub and let the soothing water lull her into an uneasy space between sleep and dozing. She wanted to believe them, God, how she wanted to. Should she take the chance and tell them that she loved them and wanted them to be a part of her life from now on?
Nothing came to her while she soaked, nothing but wrinkles from being in the water too long. She finally climbed out of the bath and dried off. She dried her hair with the blow dryer. Then she climbed into bed wondering if her men would come to her or stay away. She curled up in the middle of the bed and cried silent tears.
She wasn’t sure how long she stayed
awake, but finally, they came to bed, being as quiet as they could, and got undressed. She smiled that they even tried. She sat up in bed and let them off the hook.
“I’m awake. You can turn on the light so you don’t break your necks.”
“Sorry, baby. We thought if we waited you’d get some sleep.” Jeb sat on the edge of the bed and pulled off his other boot.
“I couldn’t sleep.”
“That’s our fault,” Marshall said. “I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. We needed to talk about our feelings anyway. We’ve been sleeping together for two weeks now and hadn’t addressed it.”
“You know men,” Jeb began. “We’d go all our lives without addressing it if we could.” He grinned a lopsided grin that always got to her.
“What can we do to help you fall asleep, baby?” Marshall asked. “Do you want us to help you sleep?”
She chuckled. Their answer to everything was sex. And sometimes that was the answer, but not this time. This time she needed something more from them.
“I just want you to hold me. Hold me like you never want to let me go.”
“We can do that, Drew, ’cause we never want to let you go.” Jeb wrapped his arms around her.
Marshall pulled her against his hard cock and let her use his shoulder as a pillow. He smelled so good to her. Both of them did. She would miss their scent on the pillows next to her if they left. She would miss so much about them.
Jeb’s hand massaged her lower back while Marshall’s free hand massaged her shoulder. Always taking care of her, they had no idea how good that felt to her. No one had ever cared enough for her to do that. She’d been the caregiver to her late husband and then to the farm itself. To some extent, she’d watched out for Kenny.
She drifted off to sleep thinking about how good it felt to be cared for.
* * * *
The next few days proved to be no different from the last few days. They worked the ranch and ate and made love and slept. The snow slowly melted until they could get the truck down the road to town. She and Jeb made ready to take the trip early on Friday morning. She had her list of supplies and goods they needed. Jeb would check in with the sheriff while they were there. She hoped he would have something about who’d tried to kidnap Kenny.
