Hidden Depths

by L. M. Brown

  “Men throwing themselves at you?” Fabian asked as he gestured to Kyle and Finn.

  “Not just these two,” Jake replied. “Finn, for god’s sake, get a hold of yourself.”

  Fabian chuckled.

  “You can stop laughing, as well. Our waiter hit on me and so did Finn’s heterosexual brother, right before they all got in a fight in the bathroom and we got thrown out of the restaurant.”

  “Don’t worry too much about it. It’ll only last for today.”

  “What will?” Jake asked. “Did you know this was going to happen?”

  Fabian shook his head. “No, but sometimes, when you have gifts from the gods or you’re related to one, you have to expect a few oddities.”

  “Well, I definitely didn’t expect tonight,” Jake complained as he tried to extricate himself from his lovers. “Are you sure this is going to end after today?”

  “Pretty sure,” Fabian replied. “On my aunt’s love day, anyone she finds attractive fawns all over her, and when darkness falls, it tends to become an orgy. I try to stay out of her way, but everyone in the pantheon knows how it works. With the awakening of the other immortals, everyone’s powers are growing, including those like yours. It sounds like every man you’ve been attracted to this evening has made a move on you.”

  Jake frowned. He’d had a crush on Alex long before he had met Kyle or Finn, but he hadn’t been attracted to their waiter, had he?

  Fabian sighed. “You can’t help who you’re attracted to, and it doesn’t mean you’d ever act on the impulse, but there must have been something there for men to be throwing themselves at you.”

  Jake headed into the living room and sank onto the sofa. “The powers from your aunt are a bloody menace.”

  Finn and Kyle both tried to straddle Jake’s lap at the same time and Fabian laughed. “There are some advantages, Jake. You have to learn to take the rough with the smooth.”

  Jake sighed as he tried to concentrate on the conversation, despite his lovers. “If everyone who threw themselves at me tonight did so because I fancy them, why aren’t you doing the same?”

  Fabian raised a brow. “Are you saying you’re attracted to me?”

  Jake shrugged. “You’re a handsome man. Most gay men would be happy to share your bed.”

  Finn smacked him on the chest. “Stop ogling Fabian and pay attention to me.”

  Fabian laughed. “Maybe I’m not affected because I’m related to Medina. Who knows? I’d suggest you take your boys to bed and tomorrow will be a whole new day.”

  Jake took Fabian’s advice, and after he’d finally escaped from under his two lovers, he took them by the hands and led them upstairs to the bedroom.

  He sat Kyle and Finn on the end of the bed and knelt at their feet. He wanted to talk to Kyle about what he had been thinking back in the restaurant, but he knew that would have to wait until tomorrow. They all needed a clear head for that discussion.

  Finn and Kyle had wasted no time in stripping out of their clothes, which wasn’t anything unusual, and Jake gazed at their equally fine bodies with awe that they were his.

  “What do you want tonight?” Jake asked quietly.

  “You,” answered his lovers in unison.

  Jake smiled and shook his head. “I think I’d like to see you two come together. How about it?”

  Finn and Kyle exchanged a quick glance before nodding eagerly.

  “Great.” Jake pointed at the bed. “Move to the other end so I can climb on, too.”

  Without hesitation, the two mermen scooted down the bed, and Jake joined them a moment later, though he sat out of touching distance.

  “Kyle, kiss Finn,” Jake ordered.

  Finn opened his mouth as Kyle pressed their lips together, moaning loudly as he obeyed Jake’s command.

  For a moment Jake wondered whether they were doing what he told them because of some other power from Medina. He hoped that wasn’t the case. He didn’t like the idea of forcing his lovers to do things together. Then he remembered who shared his bed, two mermen with rampant sex drives that wore him out on a daily basis. No, regardless of any power Jake might be wielding, Kyle and Finn were never less than eager to kiss, touch and make love, whenever the need arose.

  Looking at the two mermen now, Jake could see they were definitely in need. Their hard cocks rose between them, brushing together as they shifted closer.

  Jake, who was still dressed in his suit, wished he had taken the time to remove his own clothes. The fabric over his groin stretched tight as the sight of his lovers kissing turned him on.

  Finn wrapped his legs round Kyle’s back and pulled himself so close Jake could no longer see space between them.

  The sound of lips smacking together, combined with moans of desire, filled the room.

  Jake slid down the zipper of his trousers and slipped his hand inside the opening. Shielded by his loose shirt, neither Kyle nor Finn would be able to see his cock, but he knew they would have no doubt about what he was doing.

  He enjoyed watching his men find pleasure with each other. He had never felt jealousy at such times, only desire and love. Until hearing Kyle’s thoughts, Jake hadn’t even considered jealousy to be an issue in their relationship.

  As he stared at the delectable sight before him, Jake heard his lovers’ thoughts once more.

  “Need you so badly, Finn.”

  “Love you, Kyle, so much.”

  “Jake, get over here and fuck me.”

  “Need to bury myself in you, Kyle.”

  Underwater, the two mermen could communicate telepathically, as could Jake, since he’d discovered his Atlantean heritage. Right now, though, neither of them could hear the other, but Jake could.

  Jake considered Finn for a few moments. The youngest of the three of them, he often took the most submissive role in the bedroom. He yearned to be held down and taken, to be fucked hard and fast, to be held over a man’s knee and spanked until he came.

  Rarely did Finn top either of his lovers, yet it was clear from his thoughts right now that he wanted to.

  Had Jake not been able to hear him, he’d no doubt have fucked Kyle followed by Finn, or possibly the other way around, and he’d never have known his youngest lover needed something else.

  “Finn,” Jake said, “fuck Kyle.”

  The surprise in Finn’s silver eyes was clear, as was his eagerness to do as Jake had said.

  Kyle frowned a little. “Is that what you want, Finn?”

  “Yes.” Finn looked at Jake. “How did you know? Did you read my mind again?”

  “Yours and Kyle’s,” Jake admitted. “We have to work on our communication skills.”

  Kyle ducked his head and blushed bright red.

  “All of us,” Jake said. “Kyle, tomorrow, when we’re all a bit less aroused, we’re going to talk about our roles in this relationship, okay?”

  Kyle nodded and twisted out of Finn’s embrace so he could position himself on his hands and knees. He faced Jake but remained out of his reach. Finn crawled behind Kyle and bent his head. Kyle, who couldn’t see what Finn was doing, squealed when Finn licked along the line of his crack.

  “That’s it, Finn,” Jake encouraged. “Taste him and fuck him with your tongue.”

  Kyle moaned loudly and pushed back against Finn’s mouth.

  Jake gripped the base of his own cock, desperately holding back the orgasm. He couldn’t come yet. It was far too soon. Yet it had been a long time since he’d been this turned on, without even touching his lovers. When had they drifted into the monotony of routine sex?

  “Oh fuck, oh fuck, oh, Finn, fuck, yes, right there.” Kyle encouraged Finn with shouts and cries of pleasure until Jake wondered whether Kyle might come just from Finn rimming him.

  Kyle whimpered when Finn pulled away, but Jake knew it was only a temporary withdrawal. He returned a moment later with lube in hand and set about preparing Kyle, stretching him with his fingers and massaging his prostate.

  Jake squeezed
his own shaft, all the while rethinking his position on cock rings. He could do with one right now if he wanted to keep from coming in a matter of seconds.

  When Finn pushed his cock inside, Kyle screamed in pleasure. Jake hoped the rest of the household couldn’t hear them. They always placed guests as far away in the mansion as possible, but Jake knew they could all be pretty loud when they lost control.

  “Feels so good,” Finn gasped as he seated himself fully in Kyle’s arse. “Been too long.”

  “You should have said something,” Kyle muttered.

  “So should you,” Jake reminded him.

  “And what about you?” Kyle asked. “Are you keeping any secret desires from us?”

  Jake didn’t think so, but he was hesitant to say no without giving it some thought. He didn’t want another man in his bed, but was he getting everything he needed from his lovers?

  “I think maybe there’s something else he wants from us,” Finn said. “But I think it might have to wait at least a few more minutes, because we’re a little busy right now.”

  Jake laughed. “We’ll talk tomorrow. Right now, I want to watch you fuck Kyle into the mattress.”

  “Yes!” Kyle cried. “Do it, Finn, as hard and fast as you can.”

  Finn took him at his word and thrust his hips over and over, sending Kyle slipping across the silken sheets.

  Jake moaned as he watched Finn take Kyle. His hand flew over his cock, slick with the cum he had already spilled.

  Kyle’s neglected dick hung heavy between his legs. Finn gripped Kyle’s hips and Kyle’s own hands were planted firmly on the mattress. Jake suspected it wouldn’t matter. Kyle was too close, too aroused. He was ready to come any second.

  As Jake watched, Finn changed his angle, and with the next thrust, Kyle howled as he spilled across the sheets below him. The sound of his lover coming went straight to Jake’s cock and he followed him a moment later, his seed spraying in an arc across the bed.

  Finn screamed and stiffened as he came too, buried to the hilt in Kyle’s arse.

  The three of them collapsed onto the sheets, panting and struggling to draw breath.

  Jake wasn’t sure which of his lovers recovered first, but he became dimly aware of the sensation of a tongue licking at his balls. Fingers and hands tugged at his clothes, stripping him bare. Then there were two tongues and two mouths, sucking his soft testicles and licking along the length of his cock.

  When he opened his eyes and stared down the bed, both his lovers’ heads were buried between his legs. Jake spread his thighs wider, opening himself to his lovers.

  Finn reached between Jake’s legs with a slick finger. He gazed at Jake questioningly and Jake responded with a quick nod.

  With an eagerness Jake hadn’t seen in a long while, Finn pressed his index finger against Jake’s hole, rubbing around the edge, before slipping the digit inside the tight channel.

  Jake whimpered as Finn slowly fingered him. How long had it been since either of his lovers had taken him? Six months? Longer? Jake didn’t know, but it had clearly been far too long.

  He bore down on Finn’s finger and moaned. “More, Finn… Give me more.”

  Finn did as he’d begged, slipping a second finger in alongside the first. Then Kyle added a third and Jake gasped. He spread his legs wider, urging his lovers on.

  In perfect unison, Finn and Kyle pressed their digits inside Jake’s arse, fingering him more thoroughly than he could ever recall them doing before.

  Jake’s cock, so recently spent, twitched with renewed interest. Another gift from Medina, he guessed. Although his mermen had a fast recovery time—something common to their species—Jake didn’t. Yet his dick was showing a definite interest in the proceedings, and Jake had no doubt he would soon be as hard as he had ever been in his life.

  He could see both Kyle and Finn were thoroughly aroused once more, and he wondered which of them would take him.

  “Who do you want in you?” Finn asked quietly.

  Jake moaned as one of them brushed their finger over his prostate. “I don’t know, don’t care. Fuck me, please.”

  “Blindfold him,” Finn said.

  Kyle withdrew his fingers and climbed off the bed. When he returned to Jake’s side, blindfold in hand, Jake lifted his head so Kyle could secure it behind him.

  Between his legs, the two mermen shifted and moved until Jake could no longer tell which of their cocks poked at his entrance.

  “Shush,” one of his lovers whispered, causing the other to chuckle lightly.

  Strong hands lifted Jake’s legs, hooking them over the shoulders of one of his lovers. He felt long hair brushing against his calf. Finn.

  The only feature that enabled people to easily tell apart the Mitchell twins was their hair. Both men were natural blonds, but while Alex wore his hair in a short modern style, Finn had never cut his in his life and his long hair reached down to his waist.

  Kyle, like Jake, generally kept his hair short, pointing out that longer hair got in the way underwater. Neither man could understand why Finn didn’t get frustrated with his lengthy locks drifting this way and that. Finn had laughed and flatly refused to shorten his hair.

  Lucky for Jake, Finn’s telltale long hair told him who was about to fuck him. No, he corrected himself. His men were making love to him. There had never been a time for Jake when what they did together was nothing more than fucking. His heart had been involved right from the start.

  He relaxed his muscles and let Finn inside, welcoming him with his body.

  When Jake moaned, he felt something familiar brush against his lips and he opened his mouth. Kyle kissed him and sucked on Jake’s tongue as they explored each other’s mouth.

  “Suck him,” Finn said.

  Kyle laughed. “Who do you want to suck who?”

  “Good question,” Jake said. He didn’t mind whether Kyle sucked him or fed him his cock—with Finn slowly driving him back to the brink of orgasm, he wouldn’t last long even without a hand or mouth on his dick.

  Kyle, who had never been a selfish lover, even on the night of the solstice, dove on Jake’s cock before Finn could answer.

  Jake screamed in pleasure from the dual sensations of being sucked and fucked at the same time.

  Finn filled him completely, while Kyle swallowed him down to the root.

  His balls drew up and he could tell he was close. Surely there was nothing left in him to shoot? Yet, somehow, there was. Whether by fluke or some magic of Medina, Jake was coming in Kyle’s mouth, and Kyle took everything he had to give. Between his legs, Finn stiffened and the heat of his release filled Jake’s arse, even as his love for the two mermen filled his heart.

  Kyle removed Jake’s blindfold and Jake took hold of Kyle’s cock, tugging him to completion, until his lover spilled across Jake’s chest.

  They lay together in a sticky, sweaty heap, no one making any effort to move.

  “Do we still have to talk tomorrow?” Kyle asked.

  “Yes,” Jake replied. “We really do.”

  Chapter Three

  The next morning after breakfast, Jake ordered Finn and Kyle to dress and took them out in the car. Thankfully, whatever magic of Medina’s had been around the day before seemed to have dissipated with the dawn.

  “Where are we going?” Kyle asked as the scenery passed in a blur. In the back seat, Finn appeared rather green around the gills. Even after two years, he still didn’t like traveling in human vehicles. Kyle wasn’t particularly fond of them himself, and he hoped the journey wasn’t going to be a long one.

  The car traveled down the coastline for miles, before finally, when Finn declared he was about to lose his breakfast, Jake pulled off the road and into a dusty car park.

  Kyle stepped out of the vehicle and looked down at the deserted beach past the dunes. “Where are we?”

  “The Point,” Jake replied. “It’s quiet here, and we need to talk, somewhere we won’t be disturbed or distracted.”

  “We
could talk just as easily at home,” Finn pointed out, “without the need for car rides down long, winding roads with lots of bumps.”

  Jake chuckled. “If we tried talking there, we’d just end up having sex. Besides, you two are beings of the ocean, and I think talking here might help you be more honest.”

  Kyle nodded and began the walk over the dunes. “This place looks pretty deserted. Are you sure we won’t end up having sex here, too?”

  “Maybe,” Jake admitted. “But not before we’ve talked.”

  They found a place on the sand and Kyle waited for Jake to say something.

  “Kyle,” Jake began, “what you thought in the restaurant last night… It’s not true, you know.”

  “What did you think?” Finn asked.

  “It’s nothing,” Kyle mumbled. “It’s not important.”

  “I disagree,” said Jake, his voice firm and making it clear that if Kyle didn’t tell Finn, he would.

  Kyle sighed, realizing he didn’t have any choice other than to come clean. “When Jake kissed you, I was jealous. Sometimes, especially when we’re with your family, I feel as if you two are a couple but that I’m not really a part of that.”

  “What?” Finn gaped at him. “That’s ridiculous! How could you think that?”

  Jake placed a calming hand on Finn’s arm. “It’s not ridiculous at all. Kyle picked up on something that we missed. Three men in a relationship together is unusual anywhere, and especially so for a small town like this one. Whether we meant to or not, we made Kyle feel like he’s not a part of what we share, when, in fact, he’s what holds us together.”

  Kyle’s eyes watered at Jake’s declaration.

  Jake took Finn’s hand with one of his own, and Kyle’s with the other. “From now on, no matter where we are or who we’re out with, I promise I’m going to make it clear that you’re my partner, every bit as much as Finn is.”

  “You don’t have to do that,” Kyle said. “I know we’re all in this together.”

  “That’s not the point,” Jake replied. “I think everyone else needs to know that too.”
