TWO FOR ONE
CHAPTER 1
Sadie Jamison was a bit suspicious of the text from her best friend Vivian about meeting her for lunch at her art gallery when she received it in the morning, but she went during a break from her article for the local paper despite her concern. Vivian Adams had a good heart much of the time and wouldn’t do anything to embarrass Sadie -- not too much.
She walked through the thick glass doors of the art gallery that Vivian managed and took a look around at the new pieces on the wall with appreciation as she made her way back to the office down the long hallway. “Yo Viv,” Sadie called out as she tapped on the heavy wooden door with her hand.
“Come on in.”
Sadie pushed the door open to see delivery from one of the best places in town spread out over the long table against the wall as Vivian frowned at her phone. “What’s wrong?”
“I don’t know why the yearly charity event can’t ever go smoothly.” Vivian groaned with a frown. “My hostess agreed to do the auction, but she suddenly has a new boyfriend and backed out. The event is this coming weekend!” Vivian looked over Sadie thoughtfully as her friend frowned. “How about you?”
“Who is going to want me?” Sadie eyed the food with a raised eyebrow as she shook her head. “This was a trick, wasn’t it? You’re bribing me with food.” Sadie was five foot ten but also heavier than any of the past bachelorettes that were involved in the auction that raised money by ‘selling’ a woman to a man for a dinner date for an inflated amount of money. They claimed it was innocent and just for the event, but Sadie was not into being a hooker for the night. She didn’t even think it would be sincere given her size eighteen frame and the fact that she was black.
“Are you kidding me? You’re gorgeous.” Vivian told her as she sat up straight and tossed her platinum blonde hair back with a toss of her shoulders. “We have a great make-up artist and hair girl to bring out that gorgeous caramel skin and your bright green eyes, Sade. They’ll get you a hot dress; we’ll make some cash, and you can just do dinner. I know things have gotten scandalous in the past, but you don’t have to do anything that you don’t want to do. I swear. It makes so much money every year, and everyone says it’s their favorite part of the event.” Vivian pleaded with her friend with her big blue eyes as Sadie smiled. “I can’t do it seeing that I’m getting married in two months, you know.”
The upcoming wedding to a local artist that was starting to get a name for himself was huge news to the girls. They were working hard on the ceremony that was going to be on a private beach in Santa Monica with Vivian and Seth’s closest friends and family, and it forced a bigger smile on Sadie’s face.
“Touché. I’ll do it. It’ll be fun to get dressed up for the night, and I’ll make him take me to the best place for dinner.”
Vivian laughed and nodded.
Three days later, Sadie was staring at herself in the mirror in awe. Her long dark hair was in wide curls and highlighted with streaks of a honey color, which was so much more than she ever did with the curly mess. Her hair came from her father and his black heritage while her lighter skin and eyes came from her Brazilian mother, which was a combination that she didn’t think about too much before now. At twenty-two, Sadie had learned that the majority of men didn’t appreciate bigger women.
Tonight, though, she looked amazing. Sadie dressed in a clingy emerald green dress with makeup that made her eyes pop. They had been done up in a smoky style with a stunning plum gloss, and she shook her head slowly. She still wouldn’t make the former thousands of dollars that previous auctions had, but anything helped.
Vivian came to get her in the dressing room and led her to the stage as she babbled excitedly about the night. Sadie swallowed the lump in her throat as she stood on the steps and waited for the cue to her entrance. When she heard the call for the beautiful bachelorette, Sadie forced a smile on her face and stepped out to thunderous applause and cat calls. The announcer called out her likes as if it were a dating ad and started the bidding at one thousand dollars. Sadie swayed her hips as she fought a laugh and walked down the added runway for this part of the show. The champagne that she’d enjoyed in her room was doing the trick, and she narrowed her eyes as she tried to see who was looking at her.
Bids were called out throughout the crowd, nothing too far above what the original number started out as until a booming voice rose above the crowd. “I’ll offer five hundred thousand dollars for the lovely lady.” Everyone gasped, and Sadie’s eyes widened as she struggled to stay standing on her stiletto heels.
“What?” She whispered as she looked around to see who the man was in the bright lights.
“Six hundred thousand,” another voice called out as she spun around to try and see any of them.
“Well, well. This is the fastest auction that I have seen in quite some time. Where are we at, gentlemen?” The announcer teased the crowd as everyone waited anxiously for a response.
“Six hundred twenty-five thousand.” It sounded like the first bidder again.
“Seven hundred thousand dollars.” These guys weren’t playing, and Sadie clenched her fists as she wondered what more there was to this.
The bids jumped up in smaller increments as everyone waited to hear the outcome and once it hit over a million dollars, there was the sound of mutual laughter from the crowd. “Gentlemen, let’s do this.”
“We’ll go in together with two million and she’ll get to date the man that she chooses.” The crowd reacted as Sadie stared forward in shock and the announcer brought the crowd to an ear-piercing cheer. Sadie felt someone next to her, urging her off of the stage.
She walked off of the stage right into Vivian’s waiting embrace, who spun her friend around. “We’ve never done this well, Sade! I'm in total fucking shock right now, but you rocked it. I can’t wait to see these men…men. Can you believe it? Two men bid on you. Talk about scandalous!” Vivian chattered on as Sadie let her tense body relax.
“What now?” Sadie asked as Vivian pulled back and looked at her with sparkling eyes.
“We have a meeting room for the new couple to get to know each other. There're appetizers and drinks. I won’t lie. Sometimes they hate each other, but I am looking forward to this one.” Vivian took her hand and led her down a hallway to a door and pushed it open before she poked her head in to look around. “Empty. Come on.”
Sadie fell into a comfortable chair and ran her hands through her hair. “How did that just happen?”
“You’re beautiful. That’s how it happened.” Vivian told her as she sat down across from her. She poured them some champagne, and they toasted with broad smiles. “Remember, no matter how much they gave to the cause, what happens is up to you.”
CHAPTER 2
The women drank and waited as Sadie grew progressively more nervous. When the door opened again, she looked up with curious eyes as two men walked inside of the room.
They were both tall and wearing exquisite suits that were custom fit to their muscular bodies. That was where the resemblance ended.
Jacob Landon was dark haired with seductive whiskey eyes and a full mouth that promised the best of sin to Sadie as he slowly let his eyes rove over her body and she understood the goose bumps that she had on stage at this moment. He looked built, confident and she knew that he was rich just from his appearance.
Brent Taylor was similar in build but with tousled blonde hair and bright blue eyes. He looked to be more of the wealthy surfer boy with all of the traits that Jacob offered and Sadie shared a long look with Vivian, who stepped up with a smile and outstretched hand.
“Gentlemen, I am Vivian Adams. I manage the Berman Art Gallery, which is a primary sponsor of this very event.” They shook hand in turn, and she surveyed them curiously. “I must say, that was a very impressive effort tonight. My girl is worth every penny, though.”
“That was apparent the moment she took the stage,” Brent agreed as he looked Sadie over. His eyes were dark, and they made her shiver
as she looked from him to Jacob, both of which had already introduced themselves just after walking into the room.
“I suppose I should leave the three of you to get to know one another.” Vivian winked at Sadie as she prepared to exit the room. “See you later, Sadie. Treat her well, gentlemen. She means the world to me.”
Sadie swallowed the last large sip of her champagne and set the glass down as they each took a seat across from her. “So you like long walks on the beach, hiking and dancing. Tell us more, Sadie,” Jacob told her as his eyes rested on the generous cleavage that the tight shimmery dress provided as she crossed her arms over her chest.
“That sounded like such a generic dating ad. I didn’t know what to say.” Sadie pressed her lips together and looked at both of them again. “I do love all of those things; it’s true. I am also a writer, an avid reader, and I love experiencing life to its fullest. I love feeling things to my core.” Her voice was shaking as Brent gave Jacob a look. “Do you know each other? I mean, you seemed so comfortable with the mutual bid, and I am told that’s never happened before now.”
“We are best friends and partners in one of the most successful architecture companies in the world. We have done work in every country and just happen to be based in the Los Angeles area.” Brent responded with a twinkle in his eye as he looked into her eyes. “To my knowledge and the past years of attending this event, it is the first double bid. What are you going to do with both of us, Sadie?” She gulped at the insinuation and the men shared a long look.
“It was for dinner. The auction?” Sadie inwardly groaned as she heard her own words. Even her body was telling her that she’d be a fool to stop at dinner with these gorgeous men that clearly had a different idea of their night. She wondered if the after party would be with one of them or…holy shit…both. That was new to her.
“Technically, yes.” Jacob responded as he took her in with his intense gaze and leaned forward. “I’d like to get a drink out there with you, get to know you. We can enjoy the rest of the event and go from there.”
“Yes, I’d like that,” Sadie agreed. The heat in the room was overbearing and she knew that she’d lose all willpower if she continued to be alone with these men. She was only twenty-two and though there had been some sex in her life, it was nothing like these men were going to give her. They couldn’t be that much older, thirty at the most, but they held the world in their hands. Brent seemed to be a bit more relaxed but that quality also made him extremely appealing next to Jacob’s arrogant confidence. They stood and offered their hands to help her up as she felt warmth heat her cheeks. She was feeling that same heat in places that needed to be touched and Sadie licked her full lips slowly.
“Cherry blossom. I love that scent. Does it taste as good as it smells?” Jacob leaned close and murmured in her ear as Sadie’s knees buckled. They opened the door and the three made an impressive entrance into the event as she held both of their arms between the men, something that surely got the tongues in the room wagging. They found a private table and in between people coming up to congratulate them or thank them for their generous bid, the men peppered Sadie with questions about herself as she stared at them.
They complimented her skin, her bright eyes and surprisingly, her curves. The men had never been driven to bid before with the skinny mindless women that were offered in the past and they had honestly arrived separately due to work. The fact that they were both bidding surprised them and they playfully went against each other until they decided to join forces with the big donation.
Sadie could tell that it wasn’t a lot of money to them as she sipped her second drink after sitting with them, feeling lightheaded and shamefully pumping with lust deep inside of her core. The night was coming to a close and groups and couples left the room to go home with their drivers or up to their rooms for the night and she gave the men a curious look. “It appears as though everything is coming to a close. Would you like to have a nightcap with us upstairs?” Brent asked her as he reached across the table and stroked her hand as Jacob stared at her with a hooded look.
Sadie nodded.
Once inside an elevator alone, Sadie felt her body turn to jello as she looked up at Brent before he leaned down and kissed her. It was demanding yet gentle and she clung to his thick arms to hold herself up as their tongues danced together with heavy desire. Sadie had felt it all night between the three of them and as she felt her hair lifted and another pair of lips on her neck, her tiny lace thong dampened between her legs in a rush of need. She was barely aware of the elevator opening and they all stumbled out into a room as she clung blindly to Brent before hitting something soft. Her dress was falling forward and Sadie wondered when it had been unzipped when she saw Jacob kneeling before her. He kissed her hungrily.
Jacob pulled Sadie gently forward on the king sized mattress as she felt the cold air on her skin. The dress stayed behind. She wanted to call out for them to be careful with it but she was too occupied by his eager mouth and skilled tongue. Her breasts fell free, and her nipples pebbled as hands reached around her body to pinch and tug at them as Sadie moaned.
One of the hands slipped down between her legs and slid the thin barrier of clothing aside. Sadie whimpered as fingers moved through her folds and found her hard nub before stroking it hard and fast. “Oh, oh…I’m close,” Sadie murmured as she kissed Jacob slowly and raked her hands through his cropped hair.
“I want to hear you come. Now, Sadie,” Jacob urged her as she winced and cried out loudly with her surprising release. She’d never come like that to begin with, much less on what seemed like a command before. Sadie wilted against Jacob as a mouth moved over her pussy to suck and lick as she trembled in Jacob’s arms.
“I need you to fuck me,” Sadie groaned as she blindly reached out to try and pull Jacob’s clothes clumsily off. “Oh, God. Oh, Brent.”
“Does she taste good?” Jacob asked as he found a pert nipple and started to pinch it before he tugged slowly. Sadie cried out again as another orgasm flooded Brent’s mouth and he sucked it inside of his throat without hesitation.
“Like fucking honey,” Brent sad in a muffled voice before he started to slide his tongue back over her as she closed her eyes and took a slow breath.
“I’ll make us some drinks, Brent. Keep her going.” Jacob said as she heard him move from the bed and clothing start to hit the floor. As amazing as she felt, Sadie wondered if they shared women often before Brent dragged her clit through his teeth.
“Fuck me,” Sadie was shocked at the words leaving her mouth with these men, and a finger slid inside of her slowly.
“I intend to. I want you on your knees like this as I spread your legs and bury myself inside of your tight pussy while you let my best friend come down your throat.” In and out. “I want you sitting on his face as you come with my cock in your mouth. The things that I wanted to do with you when I saw you up on that stage.’ His fingers slipped out and deeply back inside as she moaned. “I saw your beauty and your strength all in one moment, and I want to break that and make you come harder than you already have before we wake up together tomorrow. I want to see what you’re hiding in those eyes.” Brent stopped being so easygoing and sounded hoarse as he spoke and Sadie dizzily smiled as she rocked against his hand.
“You’ve done a great job so far,” she told him as he reached for her hand and placed it on his cock that settled between his loosened pants. “Oh my God.”
“I made us some drinks. Let her recover for a while,” Jacob said as Sadie sensed a bit of irritation in his tone. She looked over to see him dressed just in his pants as he set the tray on the table in the room before he dropped them and freed his impressive member. She met his eyes and stroked Brent just a pulse longer before she found the strength to settle against the pillows. Brent had moved beside her thighs and Jacob next to her before he reached over to rip her thong off of her body. “That’s better.”
CHAPTER 3
Sadie took the glass that Jacob
offered her with a small smile as she curled up against the pillows and tried to cover herself and be comfortable at the same time. With her frame, that had never been an easy task. Sadie sighed and sipped the sweet but strong alcohol as she weighed her discomfort with her need, and the latter surpassed any negative feelings. They were there, though. She looked at the men who were both staring at her and raised an eyebrow. “What?”
“You look a little worried,” Jacob offered as he set his drink down and leaned closer to her. “I have never seen a woman as beautiful as yourself when you come, Sadie. It breaks down every part of you, and there’s no shame in that.”
“I just…I haven’t done this before. I’m a little scared,” Sadie told him as she looked at Brent. “This isn’t your first time, is it?”
“That doesn’t matter. We found you, so nothing before this matters.” Brent assured her as he slid a hand up her leg slowly and watched her eyes darken in the soft light from the hallway. She wanted his hands inside of her, his mouth on her and for them to be wrapped around each other’s bodies right here and now. Sadie had taken a deep breath and a long gulp of the drink before she moved over Jacob to set it beside his.
