“Orgasm? All three of us? Together?” Her head started shaking on its own accord.
“Yes.”
“Stop grinning like you know some deep secret I don’t know. It’s making me nervous.”
“Sorry.” Kara forced her mouth in a straight line, but her eyes laughed merrily.
“This just isn’t reasonable. Not gonna happen.” She looked down at her hands in her lap and continued to shake her head. If she kept this up, she was going to be dizzy soon.
“It will.” A gentle hand landed on her thigh. “Just open your mind and let your feelings rule this situation, your heart, instead of your head.”
She continued to move her head back and forth in denial. You know you are attracted to them both.
Didn’t matter. Wasn’t going to happen. Maybe if she kept repeating that mantra she could make it real.
“Kara, I’ve never even had an orgasm in the presence of one man, let alone two. I guess I’ve never been able to, you know, let that last little private piece of me go with anyone. They make toys for that.” She quickly added, “And don’t say ‘you will’ or I’m going to slap you silly.”
“You are in for a treat, that’s all I’m saying. And lucky we are too. Some people go their whole lives without having an orgasm. You and I will have multiple ones every single day for the rest of our lives. It’s fantastic I tell you.”
“Uh huh,” she mumbled again. “You do realize how absurd that sounds.”
“Yep.”
“So, how soon after you met Justin and Trevor did you … sleep with them?”
“The next day.”
“Are you fucking kidding me?” Lindsey nearly jumped out of the chair. “You? The one we could barely get to enter the bar that night? The prim one? The one who spent all her time studying and doing gymnastics?”
“Well, it wasn’t the day after I met Justin in the bar, I guess. It was the following day, after our first real date. After I met Trevor that night.”
“You slept with them after one day? Both of them?” This was unbelievable. She’d known most of what had transpired, but not all of it. She’d thought it was just some phase Kara was going through and one of these days she’d move on to a more conventional relationship.
“To be honest, I don’t know how Ryan and Alex are even staying as calm and collected as they are. They must be about to explode with needing you. It’s the nature of their kind, hon.”
“They won’t…?” Fear shook her.
“Hell, no. They’d never disrespect you. Ever. But they may be a bit moody, pushy, while they wait for you to accept your new life.”
“My new life? Do I not have a say in this?”
“Not really. Nature made the decision. You wouldn’t even be able to walk away if you wanted to. Without that sleeping pill, you probably wouldn’t have been able to sleep this afternoon. Your body wants this. Your head will catch up fast. Or you will be one very horny girl with a constant vibrator for a mate.”
Lindsey pushed the swing gently back and forth in silence for several minutes, looking out at the night. It seemed so normal, peaceful, regular. And loath as she was to admit it, she wanted them to come back. Needed them near. “How long will they be gone?” She tried to sound as though it didn’t really matter to her all that much.
Kara stuck her chin out and took a deep breath, her eyes closed, before speaking again. “Five minutes.”
“Did you just … teleport or whatever?”
“Telecommunicate. Teleport would be moving your body through space to another location. And yes, I can just ask Justin and Trevor anything I want any time I want. Comes in handy when they aren’t home and I can’t find the car keys, or my clothes.”
“I don’t even want to know what that’s all about.” She held up a hand.
“They think they’re funny,” was all she added through a giggle. She rolled her eyes.
“TMI.”
They waited. Lindsey couldn’t think of another question and her brain hurt from all the information she’d received.
The soft pounding of sixteen paws preceded the four animals as they lurched into view and then bounded onto the porch like a bunch of kids.
They were beautiful. Regal.
As if hearing her thoughts, the two coming toward her, the one with a mixture of hair colors and the deeper brown one, lifted their heads higher and pranced to her side.
If they were in her head, it was going to get old fast.
She wanted to pet them, snuggle with them in fact. She’d never even had a dog before, but some instinct told her to sit down on the floor and let them lay their heads in her lap. Their fur looked so soft.
