Erin squeezed his hand and then brought it to her mouth to kiss his knuckles. “It was meant to be. And here we all are, hand in hand in hand, walking on the beach and watching the sunset.”
“Life is damned good.” Todd breathed in deep and turned with them as they faced the majesty of the sun setting over the water, the sky a riot of purple, peach and blue.
The breeze ruffled Erin’s hair as she tipped her face up just a little. “I love it here. It’s warm and it smells good. No sound but birds and water. I feel so totally and utterly free.”
Ben squeezed her hand. “We figured Fiji would be gorgeous. But it’s even more beautiful than I could have imagined.”
The water lapped against their bare feet and then retreated. The color was a pale and yet vivid blue, and against the champagne-colored sand it was only more breathtaking.
Seduction on every level. Just standing there was foreplay.
“Makes me wish I had a private island of my own. We could put all our friends and family on it, have a school and all that stuff and just live unbothered in the middle of the ocean, far away from any annoyance.”
“Can’t say I find much to complain about with that idea.” Ben squeezed her hand.
Todd paused to pick up a shell, handing it to Erin, who took it with a smile.
She stopped to pull the dress off and tossed it to the sand behind them, placing the shell on top. “I want to go in. Do you mind?’
“Seeing you wet and frolicking in a bikini? What am I, Satan?” Todd waded in first and she followed with a laugh before getting out far enough to duck under and flip to her back, swimming lazily. Ben made his way to Todd before he jumped in and began to swim alongside her a moment, and then he pulled away, needing the exercise, needing to burn the stress of travel from his muscles.
Yes, he could totally do this.
Chapter Four
Todd looked to where Ben had finished his laps and left the water. He lazily swam over to follow. Erin had gone back to the bure to read and be alone. It gave him time alone with Ben, which he knew was also intentional on her part. She liked to watch like the beautiful freak she was, but they all three tried hard to give each other some time alone as a twosome. It was good to keep those relationships strong and healthy.
And right then he wanted to get strong and healthy with that well-over-six-foot-tall mass of gorgeous looking at him like he knew exactly what Todd was thinking.
Considering how long they’d known each other, and their well-matched sensual appetites, he probably did know exactly what Todd was thinking.
They met on the blanket they’d set out that morning, tangling fingers as Ben pulled him down to where he lay. Skin to skin, the water beading against their flesh did little to ease that heat. Ben’s free hand went to Todd’s hair, bringing his mouth where he could get at it.
His taste roared through Todd’s mouth, the scent of sun-warmed skin only adding to the whole experience. The muscles on Ben’s chest bunched and eased as he moved, pressed against Todd as he pushed, wanting to be inside, wanting to touch all he could.
There was no one anywhere near. No one to see or hear. No one to interrupt Todd as Ben shoved his trunks down and grabbed Todd’s cock, all while still kissing. Todd groaned when Ben took a bite as he kissed his way down Todd’s neck. He hissed in pleasure as Ben licked over the spot.
“I think you need to suck my cock,” Ben said, rolling to his back with a very smug look.
At first the sex between them had been hesitant. They’d been best friends for most of Todd’s life. But the foundation of their friendship, together with Ben’s bold acceptance of what they’d had and the potential for what they could have, had given Todd a safety net as he’d opened himself up to Ben’s appeal—outside the bedroom and most definitely in it.
He couldn’t remember any particular moment that he’d looked at Ben and found him ridiculously desirable—not as a man, but as his man.
Todd was the more dominant of the two, but when Ben ordered him to suck his cock? It sent a blast of heat through him.
Todd licked his lips. “Yeah?” He kissed down that rock-hard belly, shoving the swim trunks down Ben’s legs to expose his cock. Todd kissed the head, licking around the crown, and then fisted him at the root, swallowing as much as he could.
Ben must have approved. He thrust his hips forward, his fingers in Todd’s hair.
The sun on Todd’s back warmed his skin as he rose and fell, licking and kissing that monster c**k until he knew Ben was close. Todd pulled off long enough to get his fingers wet and slid his free hand back, stroking over Ben’s ass**le.
The stroking gave way to a slow push, seeking, slowly stretching. Todd wanted Ben to think about it, about how he’d have that ass before the day was through. The pulse in Todd’s c**k beat, throbbing over and over as he found Ben’s sweet spot and began to stroke it in time with his mouth on Ben’s cock.
“Yes, baby. Suck me, that’s it. God, god, god.” The strain in Ben’s voice tore through his system as need beat at him.
When Ben came just moments later, he sighed, his fingers in Todd’s hair loosening as he urged Todd up to kiss him.
The kiss was slow, lazy. Pleasure-drunk.
Todd flopped to his back with a happy sigh as Ben got his breath back.
“Gimme a minute. I came so hard my teeth are tingling.”
Todd laughed. “Oh, no, baby. I’m saving mine for later. Because your ass is mine. I’m going to f**k you until you beg. Maybe I’ll enlist Erin to help tease you.”
