Laid Bare

Ben found a rhythm and began shallow digs into her mouth as her nails dug into Todd’s thighs. Both men groaned and she felt like a freaking goddess between them.
“Come, honey. I want you to come all over my cock.” Todd leaned in and spoke in her ear. “Are you okay with Ben coming in your mouth?” He’d decreed that as a no-no before and she loved that he’d come far enough to change his mind. And to make sure she’d come that far too.
She hummed her assent and Todd nipped her ear. “You’re so f**king perfect.” Then to Ben, “You can come.”
“In her?”
Such a comical conversation! But she liked that they both seemed to navigate the situation carefully and with their eye on keeping everyone happy.
“Yes. Blow down that pretty throat.” As Todd said it, he slid his palm up for emphasis—to collar it—but a shiver ran through her and, totally unexpectedly, orgasm claimed her again.
She ground herself down onto Todd, listening to his groans, knowing he was very, very close. Ben’s thrusts got deeper and faster, his fingers finding her ni**les, playing with the rings until he gave a long groan and came.
With a kiss to his belly, she leaned back, resting her head on Todd’s shoulder as he f**ked up into her body. His thighs trembled with his effort to be gentle.
“I’m not going to break,” she whispered.
“I know,” he said through a clenched jaw, “but I like your new piercing. I can resist the urge to slam into you for another week or so.”
He ended with a long groan and pushed up and into her, deep, as he came.
Gently, he set her aside and left the room for a few moments. She leaned into Ben’s side, smiling at Todd when he got back.
“Tell me about your trip. I missed you.”
He kissed her and settled her skirt back around her as Ben handed her her shirt. When she was dressed again, she turned sideways, her feet in Ben’s lap and her body against Todd.
“I’m never leaving you for two weeks again. It totally sucked to be gone for so long. You’re staying here tonight, right?”
She nodded. “I hate sleeping alone. You’ve totally spoiled me.”
He put his chin on the top of her head. “Good.”
Todd told them about the trip and about the payout he’d be getting for the shooting, which was nice and enabled him to pay off the house. He wasn’t sure what they’d be doing with it. He’d also bought a ring at the family jewelers he’d driven past every day to work back when he lived in Boston. He’d spent part of that day on the phone with Brody and Adrian, along with his parents and siblings. He had plans for his beautiful little freak.
For the moment though, he had brought her back a present that didn’t require a lot of fanfare. “There’s a box on top of my dresser. It’s for you.”
She hopped up and raced from the room.
“I think she likes presents,” Ben said dryly.
“Guess I need to give them more often.”
She came out moments later, ripping the pretty wrapping off. And when she flipped open the top to the box she gasped, pulling the fine chain from the velvet inside.
“I knew you had a barbell so you couldn’t use a chain on your clit piercing. But this one will hang between your ni**les.” He stood and went to her and she unbuttoned her shirt quickly. “We can’t use a collar. It doesn’t feel right for us and you obviously can’t wear something like that at work anyway. But this, next to your skin”—he slid it through each ring so that it hung just so—“will remind you of me all day long.”
She put her arms around him and looked into his face. “I think about you all day long as it is. I think my talents as a barista have worsened since you’ve come back into my life. It’s beautiful and I love it. I love it when you mark me.”
“Let’s eat some dinner and we’ll mark you some more afterward.”

She woke up as Todd stretched and turned off the alarm. Erin buried her face in Ben’s chest and he drew a line up and down her spine lazily.
“I have to get moving. I need to get to the café.” She sat up and Todd pulled her back down to him.
“Stay.”
“I can’t. Ella will be waiting for me and I don’t like to be late.” She kissed his belly and he groaned. “Dibs on the big shower.”
When she got out, she dressed quickly, glad she had a few changes of clothing at Todd’s, and headed out into the kitchen where Ben had just finished some toast.
“Morning, gorgeous.” He kissed her quickly and tugged on her hair. “I like the spiky thing you’ve got going.”
“I have a rep to uphold and all. I’ll grab something at the café. Tell Todd I’ll call later, all right?”
“Sure. Erin, are you all right alone there? With this ass**le trying to get to Ella, I worry about you.”
“Aw, thanks. But Brody is right next door and so far, the creep has kept away from the café. Probably because of all the big, burly, scary-looking inked-up guys next door who’d smash a man into a greasy spot if he hurt a woman.”
Speaking of Brody, her phone rang and the icon on the screen announced it was her older brother.
“Hey, I’m on my way now,” she said by way of greeting.
“I was wondering what was happening. You rarely just leave the shop closed.”
“Closed? Ella’s not there?” Alarm seeped into her system.
“Come, honey. I want you to come all over my cock.” Todd leaned in and spoke in her ear. “Are you okay with Ben coming in your mouth?” He’d decreed that as a no-no before and she loved that he’d come far enough to change his mind. And to make sure she’d come that far too.
