The three men nod.
“Yes, but it’s more than fun, honey,” intones Burke as he sips his merlot. “You enjoyed Friday, didn’t you? The party was everything you expected it to be?”
I choke a bit on my water.
“It was much more than I expected it to be,” I say hesitantly. “Why? Was it everything you guys expected it to be?”
“More,” Sam says instantly.
“And one hundred percent better,” Vance adds with a mischievous look.
Burke moves to cover my small hand with his big one.
“We’re glad you enjoyed your time with us because actually, we have a proposition for you. We enjoyed Friday as well, and would like to continue what we’ve started on a regular basis.”
My eyes dart up to look between Vance, Sam, and Burke. All three men are so handsome and huge, their angular features lit up by candlelight. They’re also completely serious, those blue eyes boring into me as they await my answer.
“Is that what I think it is?” I ask in a slow tone.
Vance nods, his gaze gleaming. “Yes baby, it is. The three of us enjoy sharing women, and you’re exactly our type. We weren’t expecting this when we took you Friday, but our encounter was incredibly wild and we liked what we saw. After all, you’re beautiful, sexy, flexible, and Burke assures us that during your time as his secretary, you’ve been very discreet too. These are all traits that make you perfect for our arrangement.”
I nod hesitantly. “But what does arrangement mean?” The three men share a look.
“Well, it depends honey on what you’re comfortable with,” replies Vance. “Are you ready to be shared?”
I nod, but then the gesture turns into a shake of my head.
“I just don’t know what that means, being shared. Is it more of what we did, or will I be going out with each of you one on one? Is it even dating, or is this just hooking up?”
The three alpha males exchange another knowing look.
“It’s what you’d like it to be, honey. We want this to be comfortable for you, although of course, we want to date you. There’s more to a woman than just her looks and body, even if our first encounter led you to believe otherwise,” Vance says in a low voice.
I nod.
“So we’d be sharing meals, going to parties, and all the kind of stuff that regular people do?”
Sam nods, although his manner is a bit hesitant.
“We’re open to it, but as we mentioned, it also depends on your level of comfort. I mean, are you ready for everyone to know that you’re in a relationship with three men? Even though we’re three powerful alpha males who are CEOs? It’s untraditional to say the least, so some women would prefer to slide slowly into that reality, rather than splashing it into the news.”
But I’m still confused.
“But even if people know, will you be dating other women at the same time? After all, I’ve literally booked dates for Burke before, meaning that I made the restaurant reservations and bought flowers for his dates. So I know you see women one-on-one. Will you still be doing that while we’re together?”
The CEOs shake their heads.
“No baby,” Burke says in a gentle tone. “That was just for fun and games. You know my schedule better than I do, so you already know that I haven’t seen any of those girls more than once.”
Vance adds, “It’s true that we do date on our own from time to time, but we wouldn’t do that while we’re seeing you. You see, Jess, we much prefer sharing because it works for us,” he drawls. “The woman’s pleasure is enhanced, and so is ours. There’s a special type of dirtiness to plugging a girl’s holes while your friends are watching and participating.”
I gasp, struggling for words. My fingers twist at my napkin and a thousand thoughts run through my mind. What happens to these women that they date together? Do they use protection? How often do they see each other? How do you even coordinate schedules between four people, when three of them are busy executives? But the idea of being in a polyamorous relationship is intriguing, and I obviously enjoyed myself on Friday.
“Why do you do this?” I finally murmur. “What is there to gain?”
Vance looks surprised. “What do you mean?”
“Sharing women. Why do you do it, and how did it start?”
The three men nod knowingly.
“It kind of started by accident actually,” Sam begins. “As you can imagine, our tastes tend to lean towards the most sensual women, and we appreciate ladies with imaginations too. I was dating a woman, Darla, many years ago. She was older and very sexy, and I was pretty much putty in her hands. She had a certain type of fetish, and as you can guess, it involved multiple men.”
