Forbidden Heat

Jake grinned broadly. “So, Trey, it appears the lady has missed us.”

“May we come in, Dani?” Trey asked.

“Of course.” She stepped back.

Trey closed the door behind them. Jake stepped toward her, and she willed herself not to step back. Because she wanted to flee. From the thundering of her heart. From the wild desire to throw herself into his arms. From the desperate need to tell him she loved him and plead with him to take her back.

But then she glanced toward Trey. Her feelings of love for him had not diminished either, despite her constant conversations with herself that he wasn’t ready for love.

Jake slid his arms around her and drew her into his embrace. She stood stiff . . . until his mouth melded with hers, then she became a boneless mass of need. His tongue stroked her lips and she opened to him. His sweet invasion sent her senses into a spin.

She felt Trey’s hands stroke over her back. Jake released her lips and turned her around to face Trey. He drew her into his arms and kissed her, his mouth moving on hers with a passionate arousing insistence. Her tongue glided into his mouth of its own accord. Jake stepped close and kissed her neck. She was sandwiched between the two of them. Pressed between their hard muscular bodies, the heat of them emanating through her, setting her blood to boiling. She could feel their arousal in the form of two swelling cocks. And her own as her nipples tightened to hard beads and her insides melted to liquid heat.

Grasping for some sense of sanity, she drew her lips free from Trey’s and sucked in a deep breath. She summoned an inner strength and flattened her hand against his chest, and pushed eased him away. She stepped from between the two of them.

“I still don’t know why you’re here. I don’t intend to pick up where we left off. Nothing has changed, so—”

“But something has changed,” Trey said.

Her eyebrows arched. “What?”

“Danielle, do you trust us?” Jake asked.

“Of course.” Trust had never been the issue.

“Good.” Jake stroked down her arms—then she realized he was pressing her arms together behind her. A clinking sound followed by cold metal pressing against her wrist startled her, then a loud click . . . click. He’d handcuffed her hands behind her back.

“What the . . . ?”

He pressed her backward until her legs connected with the couch, and she fell onto the plush fabric. Trey grasped one of her ankles while Jake caught the other. She watched Trey wind a smooth rope around her ankle in a couple of quick rotations, draw the length of rope sideways, then slide it around the leg of her end table. Jake worked similarly on her other ankle. They tugged on the ropes, pulling her ankles apart, widening her legs, then tied the ropes.

Her heart thundered in her chest as excitement skittered along her nerve endings. She didn’t know why they had decided to tie her up—other than maybe to stop her from fleeing while they explained why they were here—but she couldn’t help but hope that the experience would include some hot and heavy sex.

But as much as she wanted that, she couldn’t just let it happen.

“Look, I already told you—”

Her words stopped suddenly as Trey popped a rubber ball attached to a strap into her mouth. A gag. Her tongue explored the ball and discovered contours and a ridge and . . . Her cheeks flushed. It wasn’t a ball. It was a . . . cockhead. Her tongue roved over it; then she sucked, longing for a real live cockhead. The two men in front of her possessed exactly what she wanted.

If they had allowed her a moment, she would have protested, reminding them that she couldn’t allow her relationship with either one of them to continue given the confusion of feelings between them . . . But if she couldn’t protest . . . then she’d just have to enjoy it!

Trey leaned over and tucked a wisp of hair behind Danielle’s ear.

“Just so you know, I had a long talk with Tasha and Suzie. I told them that I’ve been confused for a long time and that you insisted it would be good for me to tell them. That you made me realize I was hiding not just from them, but from myself.”

Trey bent forward and planted a kiss on her forehead. “Thank you, sweetheart. Apparently, they’d always suspected Jake and I had been a couple, but it was clear I wasn’t comfortable with talking about it, so they never asked. When I introduced you as my girlfriend, they said they were thrilled. They don’t care if I date a woman or a man. They just want me to be with someone who makes me happy.”

Jake stepped forward. “Trey and I have talked, at length, and . . .” He glanced toward Trey.

Trey stepped forward and took Jake’s hand. “And we’ve decided that we can make it work between us.” His arm went around Jake’s shoulder. “I never r

eally stopped loving Jake. I needed to explore other options, but . . . I really do love him.”

Elation bubbled through her, at the same time as a dark cloud of sadness settled over her because this meant she had truly lost both of them.

Standing behind Jake, Trey slipped his arms around him and began unbuttoning his shirt, slowly revealing his solid chest.

“We don’t want you to take our word for it, though,” Jake said.
