He had awakened her sensuality again. He was someone she could trust, despite the contract and the rocky start.
But it was deeper than that. There were underlying feelings she couldn’t ignore.
Damn it, she should have known better than to allow this to happen between them, because she was falling in love with him.
Totally. And completely. In love.
She sucked in a breath as she listened to his heart beat against her ear.
She loved him.
She stroked his chest, enjoying the closeness of their bodies, but she realized that was all it was. Physical intimacy.
He wanted to fuck her. For a month.
Then it would end.
* * *
Shock sensed something had changed. The next morning when they woke up, Liv was still in his arms, and still needy and wanting when he kissed her. They made love with the same intense passion as last night.
But afterward there was some distance between them.
They showered and dressed. He’d arranged to have casual clothes for both of them brought to the hotel, so they didn’t have to leave in the same clothes they’d worn last night, even though he’d definitely love to see her in that dress again.
The limo pulled up in front of his country house and for a moment he regretted bringing her back here, where he wouldn’t have her all to himself.
Of course, he would sexually. She’d made it clear she didn’t want to have sex with other men, so she wouldn’t be like Raven and Tempest and share her favors among the crew.
And he was glad. He was thankful that Rip and Steele were so generous with their women, and that their women were so willing, but now that he’d been with Liv, he wanted her all to himself.
Luckily, she wanted the same thing.
He opened the door and they went inside. The house was quiet, even though all the bikes were outside.
“They’re probably all out at the pool or in the lake. Let’s go upstairs and get settled.”
She nodded and they went up the wide staircase together. Once in the room, he considered pulling her into his arms and ravaging her all over again, but she walked to the big window.
“This is actually a door to outside,” she said. “I didn’t know there was a balcony out there.”
As soon as she slid the door open, he heard it. Moaning. Two people—no, more—having sex.
He raced to the door, intent on pulling her back. She wasn’t ready to see that. It would probably intimidate her. Make her worry he would demand that of her, since he’d included it in the sexual contract, to push her. Damn it, he’d have to talk to her about that. Ensure she really knew that he didn’t expect anything like that of her.
But she was out the door before he could stop her.
As he reached her side, her eyes widened as she gazed down over the balcony railing.
“Oh, my God,” she murmured.
He glanced over the railing. First he saw Dom sitting on the side of the pool with a totally naked Raven sucking his big cock while Magic watched. Tempest, also naked, was sitting on Wild Card’s lap, his hands cupping her breasts while Rip gave her oral sex. Steele and Magic were watching them, stroking their own cocks.
“Fuck, bitch, suck me harder,” Dom demanded.
Shock cringed. That was just Dom. He used coarse language during sex, but Raven loved it. He glanced at Liv, worried it would frighten her and set her back in the progress she’d made.
She watched them intently.
“Come on, Liv. Let’s go inside. You shouldn’t be seeing this.”
Her gaze rose to his and locked on. He almost thought he saw heat in her eyes, instead of the disgust or anxiety he was sure she was feeling.
“No, I want to watch,” she said, sending a jolt of surprise through him.
* * *
Liv was mesmerized by the sight of the naked bodies twined in sexual abandon, and the sound of their pleasure aroused her. In fact, she wished she had the guts to go down there and take part.
The contract with Shock mentioned all kinds of sexual things to do, including him sharing her with other men. Being with Shock had been her first step to regaining her confidence with respect to sex, so maybe she should take advantage of the situation to expand her experience to include other men. She knew she’d be safe with Shock and his friends. Shock wouldn’t let anyone hurt her.
But she wasn’t ready.
Watching was exciting, though. It made her feel wicked, and it turned her on immensely. She slid in front of Shock and took his hands, then pressed them to her breasts. He cupped her, squeezing her soft mounds in his big hands.
She watched as Magic stepped behind Raven and pressed his stiff cock against her. Slowly he glided into her from behind. Tempest moaned and arched against Rip’s mouth as Wild Card caressed her breasts. She threw her head back and moaned loudly as Rip drove her to orgasm. He drew away, then stood up and grasped his cock, pressed it to her slick opening, then drove inside her. Within minutes she was moaning again.
Raven began to moan, too, and Liv shifted to watch Magic thrusting into her.
Liv’s insides melted, longing to feel what Raven and Tempest were feeling. If only she had the courage.
God, they were so comfortable with their sexuality.
Shock nuzzled her ear. “Is this turning you on, sweetheart?”
She nodded, pressing his hands tighter to her breasts.
Tempest now leaned against the side of the pool and Wild Card stepped behind her. He pressed his cock to her ass then slowly glided forward. Oh, God, he was taking her from behind. The thought sent shivers through her.
“That must hurt,” Liv said.
“If the man knows what he’s doing, and is patient, it is extremely pleasurable for the woman.” He smiled. “Or so Raven and Tempest tell me.”
Once Wild Card was all the way inside her, he turned them both and rested against the side of the pool, then Steele stepped toward her, a big smile on his face and his cock at full mast.
“Oh, God, is he going to …” Her words trailed off as Steele pressed his cock to her slit and pushed inside her.
Shock’s hand glided down her stomach, then held her firmly against him. His cock was fully erect, pressing against her.
“Both of them are inside her at the same time,” she said in awe.
She undulated against him, longing for his big shaft inside her.
Shock tugged at the hem of her T-shirt and pulled it over her head, then his hands cupped her breasts again.
Below, Raven was bent over and sucking Dom’s huge cock while Magic fucked her from behind. Tempest was leaning back against Wild Card, his cock inside her ass while Steele drove his big cock into her again and again. Liv’s breathing increased at the erotic sight.
She felt Shock’s fingers working at her jeans, then the snap released and he pulled down her zipper. His fingers slid under the denim, then inside her panties. When she felt his fingertips glide over her folds, she moaned softly, her gaze locked on Steele’s hard ass as it clenched and he groaned against Tempest. Tempest was already moaning in climax.
Then Shock’s fingers slid inside her and her eyelids closed.
“Oh, that feels so good.”
“You’re so wet. God, I want to be inside you.”
She turned in his arms and his mouth covered hers. She slid her hands under his shirt and stroked his hard, sculpted chest.
He swept her up in his arms and carried her into the bedroom, then set her down on the bed. He pulled her jeans off and tossed then aside, then he peeled away his shirt and stripped off his jeans. The whole time his hot gaze was focused on her in her lacy bra and panties. Her breathing accelerated as he pushed down his boxers, revealing his hard cock, the veins pulsing along the shaft.
Primal moans from outside filled her with heat, reminding her of the naked bodies writhing together downstairs. Of multiple men filling each woman.
Her blood boiled as Shock approached the bed. She un
fastened her bra and tossed it aside. Both their hands reached her panties at the same time and Shock stripped them away in one motion. He sat on the bed beside her and caressed her breasts, then trailed his hand down her stomach to her damp folds. She opened her legs in invitation and he slid two fingers inside her and stroked her inner passage, leaning over and capturing her lips. His tongue pulsed into her mouth as his fingers did the same between her legs. She arched against his hand.
“Oh, Shock. I need you,” she cried. “Please fill me. Now.”
He chuckled and prowled over her. He pressed his cock to her opening, then glided inside. She moaned at the feel of his thick shaft entering her, unrelenting, all the way to the hilt. When he was all the way inside, she clutched him tightly to her, both of them breathing hard, overwhelmed by the feeling of him inside her. The two of them joined as one.
She wanted to feel this intimacy with him forever.
He nuzzled her neck. “You feel so good around me, sweetheart. I could stay like this forever.”
Joy burst through her at his tender words.
She wrapped her legs around him and arched upward, wanting him deeper still. He groaned, then started to move. His big shaft glided along her passage, stroking the intimate flesh, then pushed deep again. She squeezed as it slid out and in again, to his moan of pleasure.
He sped up, gliding faster, until he was filling her with deep, hard strokes. She moaned against his ear, pleasure rising with each thrust of his body.
She began to tremble, clinging to his shoulders. Arching against his body. Until an intense wave of joy swept through her.
“Yes, Shock. Oh, God, yes.”
The next thrust flung her to ecstatic heights, and she wailed her release.
Shock groaned and ground his pelvis against her. Her intimate muscles clenched around his pulsing cock, then she felt the heat of him releasing inside her.
They both collapsed, gasping for air. Shock’s big body was on top of her, the bulk of his weight on his arms. When he started to move away, she tightened her arms around him.
“Don’t go yet,” she murmured, then dragged her teeth over the coarse whiskers on his jaw.
“I’m heavy.”
“I don’t mind.”
He lay there for a few minutes, his lips playing along her temple. So soft and tender. Finally he rolled to his side, holding her against his hard torso, his arms around her. She rested her head against his chest and smiled. If she had her choice, this was where she would stay for the rest of her life.

Liv followed Shock into the dimly lit roadhouse and sat down at the big wooden table with the others. After joining the crew on the main floor, they’d all gone out for a ride on their bikes, then decided to stop here to eat.
The waitress brought them beers and they all ordered the house burger. As they relaxed and enjoyed the meal, Liv watched the others together and admired their easy camaraderie. She wished she could be a part of this group for real, but her time here would end too soon. And when that ended, she would probably never see Shock again.
“Hey, what’s wrong?” Raven, who was sitting next to Liv, asked. She spoke quietly, not drawing attention from the lively discussion around the table.
“Nothing,” Liv said, gazing uncomfortably at the other woman. “Why?”
Raven shrugged. “Well, for someone who just had great sex, you seem pretty tense.”
“Why do you think that …” But Liv trailed off and shook her head. There was no way she could convince the woman she and Shock hadn’t had sex, so she said the only thing she could think of. “That it was great?”
“Come on. It’s clear you’re both totally hot for each other, and you two took off last night, I assume to have some long, leisurely time together.” She grinned. “And don’t forget, I’ve been with the man.” But then her smile faded. “Unless that’s it. Wasn’t it great? Are you two having problems?”
“No,” Liv said quickly, then sighed. “It was totally great. He’s great. But …”
She shrugged. What could she say? That the only reason she was here was because she’d signed a contract to be Shock’s sex slave for a month because he’d loaned her money?
Or did Raven already know? Did all of them know?
“But what?” Raven asked.
“Nothing. We’re just … getting used to each other, I guess.”
“I thought you guys have known each other since college.”
Liv nodded, not quite sure what Shock had told the others about her. “We have. But … what has he told you about us?”
Raven shrugged. “Not much. Just that you were friends. I don’t know how close, but I got the impression he’d like to be closer. A lot closer.”
Liv nodded again. “This … sexual thing between us … is new.”
“I get it. You’re still getting to know each other that way.” She rested her hand on Liv’s arm. “But, honey, you seem so stressed. If you want to talk about it …”
Liv glanced at Shock, who had glanced her way once or twice while she and Raven talked but still kept his conversation going with the others.
Liv was sure he wouldn’t like her revealing their secrets to anyone else.
She shook her head. “I’m okay. But thanks.”
Raven nodded. “Okay, but if you change your mind, I’m here.”
Liv sipped her beer, not sure what to do with the friendly offer Raven had made. Liv hadn’t opened up to another female since her last year of college, when she’d closed herself off to everyone. She hadn’t even confided in her sister. Not about her relationships anyway.
Who was she kidding? She’d never really had a relationship. She’d been too afraid to let anyone get close. And she’d never wanted to tell anyone what had happened to her.
How stupid she’d been.
Not even her sister.
So not only had that bastard stolen her ability to have a normal relationship with a man, he’d caused her to deny herself close, meaningful friendships with women, too.
Anger seared through her and she sipped her beer again. Then gulped it. When it was gone, she signaled the waitress for another.
“That’s your fourth,” Shock said a little while later.
She glared at him. “So what? Why do you care how much I drink?”
He frowned, his gaze gliding over her face. He grasped her arm and stood up. “We’re leaving.”
“What if I don’t want to go?” she demanded.
Everyone stared at her, and suddenly she felt like a spoiled brat demanding her own way. Slowly she stood up and let him lead her to the door.
Once they stepped out into the cool night, and Liv took a deep breath of fresh air, her knees grew wobbly. Shock tightened his arm around her and steadied her.
“What did Raven say that upset you?”
“Raven didn’t upset me.”
He watched her as they walked to his bike. “You could have fooled me.” He grabbed a helmet and put it on her head, then fastened the strap under her chin. “Then what put you in such a bad mood?”
“I’m not in a bad mood.” But she could hear the defiant note in her voice and couldn’t even convince herself of that.
There was no reason to take it out on Shock. “I’m sorry. She asked if everything was okay between us and I didn’t know what to say.”
“Isn’t everything okay between us?”
She shrugged. “I don’t know. I don’t know what this is. I’m not sure how to behave.” She gazed up at him. “Other than when we’re together, doing whatever you say.”
“Does that bother you?”
“It’s not that. It’s just … I don’t know how to react to your friends’ questions … or what to tell them about us.”
“Did Raven question you about what’s going on between us?”
“No. Not specifically. She was just … really nice. She seemed to care because she thinks we’re having problems.”
“Of course she cares. She’s a
good friend.”
Liv pursed her lips and nodded. “I just … I don’t know what to do with that.”
He stroked his hand along her back. “Why do I get the impression that you don’t really know what it’s like to have a close friend?”
To her horror, Liv felt tears prickling at her eyes. Shock ran his thumb under her eye, wiping a droplet aside.
“Fuck, Liv.” Then he pulled her into his arms and held her.
It would be so easy to let go. To let the tears flow and sob in his warm, protective embrace.
But she didn’t. She stiffened and blinked back the tears.
After a moment he drew back and gazed at her. Then he sucked in a breath and climbed onto the bike. She hung on tight as they drove into the night.
* * *
When they arrived back at the house, Liv got off the bike and handed Shock her helmet, then went in the front door, not waiting for him.
Now they were going to go to the bedroom where he would make love to her. Her heart raced at the thought, longing to be in his arms. Or he would forgo sex and just cuddle her close, being understanding because he knew she was upset. Which made her heart ache.
She couldn’t do this. Let herself want him so much.
Instead of heading for the stairs, she walked into the kitchen. Through the big windows, she could see the freeform-shaped pool edged with violet, blue, and red colored lights, setting it aglow. Colored mosaic stained glass globes lit the granite pathways leading from the house to the pool to the hot tub and to the lovely sitting area beyond. Farther away, moonlight glittered on the lake.
She opened the French doors and stepped onto the patio.
“What are you doing, Liv?” Shock asked behind her.
“I think I’ll go for a swim.”
“Without your swimsuit?” he asked.
She glanced back at him. “Do I need one?”
She unbuckled her jeans and dropped them to the ground.
Shock smiled. “Not as far as I’m concerned.”
She pulled her T-shirt over her head as she continued walking through the dimly lit yard. Then she shed her bra. Shock followed her, shedding his shirt and jeans, too. Leaving on her panties, she sped up as she approached the pool and dove in. When she surfaced, she shook her head and glanced around.
