Pleasure Bound

He shrugged. “Ty’s a smart guy. Finding himself in bed with a gorgeous woman … I figure he’d want to make the most of the situation.” He stroked her cheek with his finger. “I certainly would have.”

She’d felt guilty making love with Ty after the initial scenario—and several times—but Zeke seemed to be okay with it.

“So…?”

“It was … really sexy.”

“You’re not going to tell me what he did when he found you? How he stroked your breasts? Maybe kissed along your thighs? Interesting details like that?”

She didn’t intend to talk about it, but this gave her just the lead-in she needed to talk about Ty joining in the relationship.

“Maybe tonight we could invite Ty over to … act it out,” she suggested.

“With me watching?”

She smiled. “You watching … you joining in … it’s all good.”

He tucked his arm around her waist and pulled her close to his body. “You little vamp. You’re turning into a wild woman.”

“And you love it, right?”

Damn, Marie had meant it as a flip remark, but it had come out sounding like she was seeking his approval.

But he just chuckled and planted a light kiss on her lips. “Damn right I do.” He took a sip of his juice. “I guess the question now is will Ty go along with it? With the rift between us, I’m surprised he went along with this morning’s adventure.”

“He actually suggested it. Sending you the e-mail and all.”

He grinned. “I figured that.”

“Before that, he asked me if having him involved in our … sexual play … would be a regular thing. I asked him about it since it’s obvious there’s some resentment between the two of you.”

She didn’t intend to tell him about the rest of their conversation, where Ty had told her about Zeke’s trag

ic past. The story still made her heart ache … made her want to take him in her arms and hold him tight … but she didn’t take Zeke for the kind of guy who’d want to talk about it.

“On his side, not mine,” Zeke said. “I’d like nothing better than to mend our friendship.”

She nodded. “I figured. And I think this arrangement could help do that.”

“You could be right.”

“So you’re okay with it becoming a regular thing?”

“Better than okay.” He sent her a heated gaze that sent her insides fluttering. “I can hardly wait to get started.”

Thinking about this morning’s lovemaking, how erotic having both men make love to her in the changing room had been, sent thrills through her. If only she could grab Zeke’s hand and drag him to a secluded spot right now and tear off his clothes. Memories of their first encounter at the lake … in the water … sent her body tingling for his touch.

“I … uh…” She drew in a deep breath. “There was something I wanted to ask you about. When Ty and I talked, he said he wanted to do this because … it gives him a chance to be with me.” She gazed at Zeke. “I’m a bit concerned. I don’t know if it’s just a physical attraction he has for me or … something more. Do you think it’s something I should worry about?”

He took a sip of his juice. “How do you feel about him?”

“Well, he’s a great guy but…”

“Are you attracted to him?”

“Yeah, sure,” she said.
