Crimson

by Tielle St Clare

  “Arrgh.”

  “Something wrong?”

  “No,” she snarled. “Go away.” She yanked on the zipper, hoping to force it through whatever it was caught on. No movement. Trying a new tactic, she hooked her thumbs beneath her arms and pushed.

  Nothing.

  This just isn’t possible. The damn dress has practically fallen off three times tonight.

  Twice she’d been able to catch it but why couldn’t she get the thing off now?

  She briefly considered pulling it off over her head, but before she could grab the voluminous skirts, the door to the hotel room popped open.

  Cait froze. She wasn’t doing anything wrong, but it felt somehow illicit being in a man’s hotel room. Holding her breath, she cracked the bathroom door and peered out.

  “Rain, we were just—”

  Rain stopped in front of Tanner, his muscles taut and straining the seams of his tux.

  “What?” Rain sneered. “Plotting your next move? Figuring out how you could finally get the scarred freak laid?”

  “What the fuck?” Tanner held open his hands and pushed his chest forward, getting right in Rain’s face. “What are you talking about?”

  “You, sending the bimbo in to suck me dry.”

  Cait’s head snapped up. Bimbo? She would admit to a lot of things, but that wasn’t one of them.

  Tanner shook his head but he didn’t retreat one inch. “I didn’t send her anywhere. If she sucked you off, it was because she wanted it.”

  “You’re saying you didn’t have anything to do with me and her getting stuck in the coatroom together.”

  Tanner winced. “I’ll admit to that, but I had nothing to do with whatever happened there.”

  Rain scoffed. “Right. Let me get my wallet. How much did you pay your girlfriend for the blowjob?”

  “You ass.”

  The words had barely exited Tanner’s mouth when Cait yanked open the door.

  “What?!” She stalked right up to Rain. “Paid? You think I got paid for what happened in the coatroom?”

  Rain blinked and the fury in his gaze seemed to fade a little, replaced by fear. The healthy fear of a man when faced with one pissed off woman.

  He cleared his throat. “Maybe I made a wrong assumption about that.”

  “You damn well did. Asshole.”

  “Cait—”

  Tanner’s reasonable voice grated her already taut nerves. He placed a hand on her shoulder and she spun away, planting herself between the two men.

  “Don’t touch me,” she snapped. Her head whipped around to Rain and Tanner felt a mixture of relief and fear that her gaze wasn’t directed at him. She raised her finger and pointed it at Rain. “I can’t explain what the hell happened in the coatroom.”

  “I can.” Rain pulled up to his full height and seemed to regain his confidence. “You and your boyfriend here decided the gimp needed to get laid.” Rain took a step back, retreating from both of them.

  Tanner’s chest ached. Fuck, what was it going to take to get his best friend back to life? He hadn’t planned tonight’s scenario, but if he’d thought of it, he might have. Rain was pissed right now, but it was the first real emotion Tanner had seen from him in months, ever since the rehab hadn’t strengthened his hand enough to go back on full duty.

  “I don’t need your pity fuck.”

  “Pity fuck?” Cait spit out, her eyes squinching down in confusion. Tanner could have kissed her for that. She stalked forward until she was in Rain’s face. “Why would I pity you at all? You’re gorgeous, confident and have women panting after you.”

  “Funny. Most women I know don’t strip off their gowns and get down on their knees without a damn good reason.”

  “You were naked?” Tanner stared at her breasts. The gown just made them look huge and luscious. Damn, what he would give to see her naked.

  She glared at Tanner. “That was an accident. I told you. There is something wrong with the elastic in this—”

  If he hadn’t been staring right at her tits, he might have missed it. One second she was fully covered. Then the top of her gown shifted and within a heartbeat, the dress was gone, tumbled down at her feet, lying in a frothy pile of material.

  All that remained on her body was the pair of bright red panties clinging to the sweet curve of her ass and shielding her pussy.

  His fingers twitched. Between her tits and her ass, he couldn’t decide what he wanted to touch first.

  Cait froze. She took a breath and another one.

  Tanner watched the sexy rise and fall of her breasts.

  “See?” she demanded.

  “Damn,” Tanner muttered in response. He flipped a glance toward Rain. The other man was staring at her chest as well. “Fuck, babe, you’re gorgeous.”

  “You’ve never seen her naked before?”

  “No, we—”

  As if Cait suddenly realized they were staring, she raised her right arm and slapped it across her chest, the palm of her hand cupping her left breast.

  The movement jolted Tanner and he felt his cheeks warm. For a moment he’d forgotten she was a cop, a fellow officer.

  “No, Caitlyn,” Rain said in a voice that brooked no argument. The authority in his tone made Tanner’s spine straighten. He looked at his best friend. He’d known that Rain played at kinky sex, but he’d never seen it before. “I’ve told you earlier never hide those beautiful tits from me.”

  Visible tension zipped through her muscles and her chest rose and fell in fast, hard breaths. Then, she slowly lowered her arm, leaving her bare except for those red panties.

  But she wasn’t done with her defiance. She pushed her shoulders back, making her breasts rise up just a little.

  “I’m not going to stand here naked.”

  “You’re not naked,” Rain pointed out.

  “It wouldn’t take much to change that,” Tanner added.

  The right side of Rain’s mouth pulled up into a slight smile. Damn, it had been months, nearly a year since he’d seen that arrogant grin on his friend’s face. Even if nothing else happened tonight, he would always be grateful for Cait and that ugly dress. At least this proved that the true Rain still existed.

  Cait gasped and looked at Tanner. Her mouth was open and she licked her lips, and fuck if he didn’t almost come…just imagining her sucking him off the way she’d done Rain.

  Rain met Tanner’s gaze, the challenge was there. God, was he really thinking—

  Rain hooked his arm around Cait’s waist and pulled her forward. She yelped as she landed against his chest. The sound disappeared as Rain bent down and covered her mouth in what looked like a deep, hard kiss. Tanner blinked and stared.

  For a moment, Cait seemed too shocked to react. A heartbeat later he saw her body respond—her muscles loosened and she pressed closer. Her naked breasts plumped against Rain’s chest and Tanner groaned, knowing the other man could feel those tight, hard nipples against his skin. Rain sank his hand in Cait’s hair and turned her head. As they separated long enough to breathe, Tanner saw their tongues entwined.

  He stood there for a moment, watching, his cock pressed against the fly of his tux.

  Rain’s other hand slid down her back, sliding beneath the red panties.

  Tanner suddenly realized he had two options—he could stand there and watch the two of them have sex or he could join in.

  He stepped forward, pulling Rain’s arm back, creating a break between them. Cait blinked and looked up at him, her eyes a little glassy, her lips shiny and pink.

  “My turn,” he murmured as he pulled Cait to him. The soft mounds of her breasts pushed into his pecs and he moaned. Fuck, he was right. He could feel her nipples pressing against him. He leaned down and kissed her—taking advantage of her surprise and plunging his tongue into her mouth. There was just a moment’s hesitation, then she joined him, sliding her tongue against his.

  Something brushed against the tops of Tanner’s thighs and he flinched. He knew wher
e Cait’s hands were—around his neck and clinging to his arm. He eased back, looking down. The backs of Rain’s hands skimmed across Tanner’s thighs as Rain pulled those sexy panties down. He inched them past Cait’s thighs and let them drop. The bright red looked bold and wicked against her matching crimson high heels.

  Rain stood up. The two men looked at each other over Cait’s shoulder.

  They’d shared a woman before—but they’d all been drunk and parts of the night were a little blurry.

  They were going to remember this.

  Rain raised his eyebrows—leaving the final decision in Tanner’s hands.

  Tanner nodded. If Cait showed any reluctance, they would pull back, but until then…

  Rain cuddled up behind her, wrapping his right arm around her waist. He slipped his hand down and pulled her back. Tanner watched the sexy curves of her body as she pressed her lush ass back into Rain’s groin. Tanner groaned, staring at her beautiful body, wanting to feel but loving the chance to watch as well.

  A thin strip of hair was all that remained above her pussy. Tanner watched as Rain’s hand slid down, closer and closer, until his finger touched the top of her slit. He paused and Tanner knew his friend was giving Cait the opportunity to retreat.

  Tension raced through her body, but the heat in her eyes remained. She reached out and grabbed Tanner’s arm as if she needed the extra support. She took a breath and rolled her hips, tilting them up so the tip of his finger eased into her slit.

  Rain took the silent invitation and pushed forward. Her gasp blended with Rain’s moan as he eased his finger deeper. The grip on Tanner’s shoulder tightened, the bite of her fingernails muffled by his jacket.

  Tanner shook off her hold, moving just out of reach.

  “Just a second, babe.” He tore off his tuxedo coat and let it fall to the ground. He yanked apart the flaps of his rented shirt, sending buttons snapping off and tumbling to the ground. He didn’t care. He just wanted to feel Cait’s hands on his bare skin.

  “I’ve got you,” he whispered, stepping close, sliding his hand around her waist.

  She stared at him, her eyes wide with shock.

  “What’s he doing to you, babe? Is he finger fucking that sweet pussy?”

  She gulped and nodded. He leaned away, looking down between their bodies as she rocked against Rain’s fingers, two of them buried in her wet cunt. Her hand clutched Tanner’s shoulder, using him to hold her upright as she fucked herself on the thick digits invading her pussy.

  “Oh, fuck, babe, that is so damn hot. You’re going to look even hotter riding his cock.”

  Chapter Five

  Dear Diary,

  It’s been eight months since I left that asshole and moved away. I don’t miss him. I kind of miss the sex…well, not really sex with him. But I miss good sex. Maybe Heather’s right and I should just find some guy and fuck him. Unfortunately, wild and freaky one night stands really aren’t my style.

  Rain groaned at the image. He hadn’t fucked anyone in more than a year, and the thought of Cait kneeling over him, riding his cock, his shaft plowing into her over and over again, made him rejoice that his dry spell was over.

  But even as the words filled his head, he knew it wasn’t right.

  He stared at her pale fingers digging into Tanner’s shoulder. Part of him screamed that he needed to back off. Tanner was a much better choice for her.

  Rain knew that after eight months of physical therapy that he wasn’t back to full strength and might never be. Tanner’s skin was whole, unscarred. Hell, Tanner was the more stable of the two of them.

  But fuck, her ass pressed back, grinding against Rain’s cock with each pump of her hips and Rain knew he couldn’t pull away. The wicked blowjob from earlier, the sexy curves of her body…damn, he might never have a chance like this again.

  Tanner can have her tomorrow, he told himself.

  “Fuck, man, she’s wet.”

  Tanner’s gaze snapped to his and he could see the hunger in his friend’s eyes. And the kick of humor. Tanner was enjoying this.

  Rain raised his chin in acknowledgement and felt his own lips pull up in a grin.

  “Feel this, man.” He slipped his hand away, sliding his finger from Cait’s hot pussy. He placed his hand on her stomach, holding her against his body. “Don’t move, Caitlyn. I love the feel of this sweet ass against me. I’m going to fill you, fuck you so good.”

  A sexy little whimper escaped her throat as she twisted between them, Rain’s cock pressing against her ass, Tanner’s fingers sliding into her pussy.

  Rain could feel when Tanner had penetrated her slick passage. A wicked jolt raced through her body. She arched her back, her body straining for more.

  “She’s tight,” Tanner murmured.

  She whimpered and pumped her hips against Tanner’s hand.

  “Shh, that’s it, Cait,” he whispered, his lips against her ear. “Can you feel him inside you? You’re so gorgeous, fucking his fingers, rubbing that sweet ass against my dick.” He raised his voice enough so Tanner could hear. “We’re going to give you what you need. Make you scream.”

  As if he couldn’t stand it any more, Tanner leaned in and covered her mouth in a deep, sexual kiss.

  A twinge of jealousy spiked in Rain’s chest, but with her other arm, she reached behind her, wrapping her hand around Rain’s back, gripping his ass, holding him close.

  He almost chuckled that she thought she could control him, but he loved the need. He held her hip even tighter and ground his cock into the space between her ripe ass cheeks.

  Her moan rumbled from her chest, echoing through her kiss with Tanner.

  Tanner snapped his head back. “Damn, I’m not going to last long.”

  “Neither is she.” Rain eased back.

  Cait gasped, her mind catching up with Rain’s words. A deep corner of her soul thought she might be offended, but the hot hand sliding around her waist, across her hip and cupping her ass distracted her.

  The wicked sensations that had been fluttering through her body all night coalesced into one intense ache in her pussy.

  So strong, she thought as Rain, scooped her up legs, cradling her against a hard male chest.

  She clutched Tanner’s shoulder. The solid male had been her rock through all of this. He remained beside her, joining Rain as he lowered her to the center of the mattress of one of the queen beds.

  For a moment, she lay there, looking up at both men. She was naked while they were still mostly dressed. It should have made her feel vulnerable, but the hunger blazing at her through their eyes made her skin warm. Feeling sexy, she tipped her head back and arched her spine, offering herself.

  “Damn.” Admiration and lust sang through the soft whisper. She didn’t know which man had said it, didn’t matter. She glanced down and saw all she needed—two deliciously hard bulges straining their rented tuxes.

  Ignoring every reasonable voice in her head whispering she might regret this, she skimmed her fingers across her stomach, sliding dangerously close to her pussy.

  For a moment, she thought Rain might forbid her to touch herself, but instead, he just watched. She slipped her finger into her cunt and gasped at the bright shiver that ran into her core.

  “That’s enough, Caitlyn,” Rain said as he crawled in beside her, those dark eyes staring intently down at her. His hand slid up her rib cage, cupping her breast. “You don’t get to come until we let you,” he murmured as he plumped the mound up, leaning down to capture the tight nipple between his lips.

  Breath caught in her throat. Let her? They were going to let her come? She knew she should have been furious, but a tiny corner of her brain shivered with pleasure. She’d deal with his arrogance later, when she didn’t need to be fucked so badly.

  Cait stared at that mouth, caressing her breast, tongue flicking out to tease the flat peak.

  “How sensitive are these?” he asked, placing a quick kiss on the areola.

  She shrugged. She lov
ed having her breasts caressed. The corner of Rain’s mouth pulled up in that dangerous smile. Another sliver of pure pleasure ran into her pussy.

  “Can you imagine these pretty tits in nipple clamps?” He turned his head and looked at Tanner.

  Tanner stood on the other side of the bed, unzipping his trousers. He paused and looked at her, considering Rain’s statement. Rain plucked at both her nipples, pinching just hard enough for her to feel it.

  Tanner nodded. “Beautiful.” He tugged open his black pants and…

  “They’d make you ache so good, baby,” Rain whispered, pulling her attention away from the sexy man stripping next to the bed. Her mind swirled, captivated and a little frightened by his words. Rain laved his tongue across the tight peak near his mouth, sending a hot tremor into her core.

  “You’d feel it deep down in that sweet pussy.”

  The right side of the bed dipped as Tanner climbed on. She realized she’d missed seeing Tanner’s cock.

  Her suspicious mind made her consider for a moment that Tanner had a really small cock and Rain had distracted her from seeing it, but then she felt the hard heat pressing against her thigh. Tanner leaned over her, kissing her even as Rain continued to stroke her breasts, pinching the tips, then following the rough caress with a soothing, sexual lick and suck.

  “I want to taste you, baby,” Tanner murmured against her lips. She moaned and twisted into Tanner’s kiss, her mind barely able to process what he’d said—she just knew she needed him.

  Seconds later, he slid away, leaving her with Rain, who her instincts knew was the more dangerous lover. Breath caught in her throat as she stared into those dark eyes, the bright amber specks practically glowing with lust.

  “You like that idea, honey? Tanner’s mouth on your slick cunt?” Just the words made her pussy clench. Rain’s hand slid across her chest and trailed down, low on her stomach, his fingers fluttering over her pussy lips, a quick brush before he stroked up the soft skin.

  “Spread your legs a little wider. Give him some space. Let him know how much you want this.”

  Guided by his words, by the hunger in his voice, she opened her knees, reaching down to grab Tanner’s shoulder as he crawled between her legs.
