“Damn, nothing feels as good as this,” Ben moaned as he began to f**k into her body.

Todd rolled to his knees, kissed Ben and turned his attention to her ni**les. The man had a serious thing for her ni**les and the jewelry she wore in her piercings. Many of the rings and bars were those he’d given her.

“Mmm, been thinking about these all day long. Had to rub one out earlier, and then of course Ben helped me just now. But now my day is complete, now that you’re home too.” He tongued around the rings bearing heavy beads. Beads he’d added that morning because it had pleased him to know they’d make her horny all day long. Pleased him to know he’d be easing all that pent-up desire when she came home. The man was fabulously diabolical that way.

She laughed. “We had sex before I went to the café this morning; it’s not as if you haven’t had it in weeks.”

He gave her nipple a sharp bite, just on the right side of the pleasure/pain divide. “There’s never enough of you.”

Smiling, she turned her attention to Ben.

Ben’s eyes took her in as he found her gaze and latched on. “Missed you today.”

So wonderfully sweet and sexy, her Ben. He took care of her, made sure she had enough sleep, made sure she took her vitamins and didn’t run herself down. Took care of Todd in much the same way. Todd loved being loved by her and by Ben as well. They’d been best friends long before she came along and they still were. Only she was there too.

“Missed you too. But you came in for coffee, so that made my day.”

“That made your day?” He thrust hard and deep. “Not this?”

She moaned as she rolled her hips, needing more from him. She was so wet from Todd’s mouth on her and her orgasm, the friction of their two bodies was delicious.

“That makes my entire life.”

Todd stopped a moment and kissed her. “That was nice.” He turned back to Ben. “Harder, make her tits jiggle.” He watched them move, the beads clacking against the metal of the rings. “So. Fucking. Hot.”

“Yesss,” Ben ground out, pressing as deep as he could while he came. Erin loved that, the way it felt as all that energy they’d been building up shot straight into her body, as his became heavier and the muscles looser.

“I keep hearing that trying to get your wife knocked up can be a chore sometimes. But I gotta say, not so much at this point.”

Erin laughed, content to lie there, snuggled between them, the scent of sex in the air, her skin warm and tingly.

“We’ll see what you both feel like if I’m not pregnant within six months.”

“Erin, I’d have sex with you four times a day, every day, if we didn’t have jobs and didn’t need to leave the house. I f**k you every chance I get. Ben f**ks you every chance he gets. I’m sure if I get too tired, he can take over while I get Erin’s beautiful pu**y detox.”

Ben snorted. “Sometimes you have to take one for the team.”

“Did you have a good time with Elise tonight?” Todd asked.

“We had dinner and hung out with Rennie. But after we wrestled Rennie down—and I remembered what it was like to be responsible for getting a little person with her own agenda into bed and had a wee panic attack—Elise and I settled in for a chat. For several hours. I told her about Adele and she told me her story. She’s a good woman, I’m glad she’s a friend. Strong to have survived.”

“You gonna tell Brody?” Ben asked. He and Brody were tight, so she understood why he asked.

“Not unless it’s necessary. I don’t think it will be. It’s her story, her choice to share it, or not. I think she will. It’s not a poor reflection on her, what happened. I can see she feels the weight of it anyway. She and Brody don’t look it on the outside, but they’re so much alike, it’s scary. She loves my brother, even if she can’t admit it to herself. But she’s afraid, I think. Afraid he’ll judge her or that she’ll be too much of a burden on him. I do hope she’ll share with him now that she trusts him. Once she tells him, she’ll see he wants more of her, from her.”

“He’s been in love with her for a while now.” Ben kissed her shoulder. “I’m glad you could share your own story with someone. I’m glad you have another friend. I like Elise.”

“She’s a good addition to the family. Eventually it’ll be glaringly obvious and they’ll admit it.” Todd idly slid a fingertip along her nipple. “Some people are just clueless and stubborn.” He referred to how long it took him to realize he was made for Erin, and she laughed.

“Let’s hope it won’t take them ten years, huh?”

“Come by the shop and take me to lunch today.” Elise looked at her phone a moment and then put it back to her ear. “Am I your sugar momma now?” She didn’t have classes on Wednesdays and Rennie was in school until after three. An afternoon with Brody Brown sounded pretty awesome.

Brody laughed. “You know I have a sweet tooth. I haven’t seen you for three whole days. You haven’t been to the shop yet. I’m hungry. We can combine these things for maximum efficiency.”

How dumb was it that her heart sped when he said he’d missed her? They had such busy lives and she hadn’t seen him since Valentine’s Day, when he’d shown up at her door with flowers for her and for Rennie, telling Rennie he’d never forget his two favorite women. After Rennie had gone to bed, he’d made love to Elise for hours, leaving long after midnight.
