Movement caught his gaze, and he saw Mandy leave the building and head towards the employee lot. It was now or never. He wanted her, could easily envision her with them. But he was sick and tired of opening himself up to rejection. They all were. They wanted more than just a woman to warm their beds. They wanted everything. Conversation. Quiet nights spent just doing nothing. Casual dinners where they shared the highlights of their days. Most importantly, someone to be there, period. No limitations. So far it just didn’t seem to be in the cards for them.
“You going to ask her or should I?” Mitch’s voice interrupted his thoughts. He knew his friend felt the same way he did. Dylan did as well. They just needed to find the woman who appreciated what they offered.
“I’ll go.” The worst thing that could happen was she said no. No harm, no foul. They’d walk away, and no one would get hurt. Maybe that was best anyways.
“Mandy,” he called out to her as she reached what was obviously her car.
“Detective.” She smiled at him and waited for him to cross over and join her.
“Tanner.”
“Sorry. Tanner.”
He stood there for a minute just looking at her. She stood about five-foot-six-inches with brown hair and the biggest, brightest green eyes he’d ever seen. Her skin was tan, and she didn’t seem to wear much make-up. Her eyes were big, but were balanced by her full lips. His dick twitched again as he remembered what Mitch had said about those lips. She had full breasts. Her hips were slim, but he’d seen the hint of a curve to her backside when she’d walked away. It was hard to see in her loose scrub pants, but he bet her ass was as fantastic as her tits appeared.
“Tanner?”
He snapped out of his thoughts and met her gaze.
“Did you want something?”
He felt his cheeks flush with heat. Fuck, it had been a long time since he’d blushed like a schoolboy. Mitch and Dylan would laugh their asses off if they saw him now. Thankfully, Mitch was too far across the lot to hear them.
“Yeah, sorry, long shift.”
“I know what you mean.” She nodded and stretched, arching her back and pushing her tits out as she twisted her spine from side to side. “I’m ready to go home and crawl into bed. I might have the energy to shower first.” She laughed, but he had to bite his lip to hold back the groan.
He could easily imagine her naked, her body glistening with water they could lick off of her skin. He’d eat that pussy of hers until she was soft and pliant from her orgasms. Then they’d fuck her, taking turns and switching spots.
“Tanner, are you okay?” She broke into his thoughts again.
Shit, he wanted her so badly he couldn’t disengage his imagination long enough to even ask her out.
“Sorry,” he mumbled the apology and took a deep breath. “I thought I’d take the chance and see if you were free for dinner tonight?”
She looked him in the eyes and held him trapped there for several long moments. “Just the two of us?”
He knew what she was asking. She wanted to know if there was any validity to the rumor she’d been told. He could lie, but he wouldn’t. If they wanted to build a relationship with a woman, then they had to be honest with her from the start.
He shook his head. “No.”
He watched her eyes travel across the lot towards where he knew Mitch still stood outside their car. Her gaze moved back to him then bounced back and forth between the two of them before finally settling back on him. He could see the yes in her eyes and felt like his heart might explode out of his chest. Maybe she was the one.
“I’m off tonight. I usually sleep until about three. Do you have a cell phone?”
He nodded and reached into his pocket.
“Is this your personal one or police issue?”
He grinned. “It’s mine.”
She took it from him and swiped her finger across it. “Can you unlock it for me?” She held it back out to him.
Tanner took it and put in his security code to unlock it. He knew what she was going to do. His dick was about to explode.
She took it back, and he watched as she opened his contacts and pushed to add a new one. She put her name, number, and address in, then saved the info, and handed it back to him.
“What time?”
“Excuse me?”
She smiled. “What time should I expect you to pick me up for dinner?”
He cleared his throat. “Six okay?”
She nodded. “Where are we going?” At his blank look, she smiled. “So, I know what to wear.”
“Would you feel uncomfortable if we went back to my place? A hell of a lot more private for us to get to know each other without all the rumors flying around us.”
Her gaze bounced between him and Mitch again. Finally, she let out a sigh and turned to face him. “Are you inviting me over for sex?”
He jerked a bit in surprise. She was blunt. Hell, if that didn’t turn him on more. He wouldn’t have thought that was possible. Luckily, he recovered quickly. “Are you offering?” She didn’t need to know he was repeating “please” over and over again in his head.
She grinned. “You are pretty cute.”
He remembered her earlier comment when she hadn’t known he was behind her. Which brought Lorraine and her censor to mind. If Mandy went out with them and it became known, those rumors would involve her as well. It wasn’t always an easy thing to handle.
“The rumor doesn’t scare you?”
She shook her head. “I don’t scare easily.”
“If anyone knows you’re going out with us, they’re probably going to talk.”
“I’ve never been afraid of what other people think.”
They eyed each other, and he wondered again if she might be the one they’d been waiting for. “So dinner?” he finally prompted.
“Yes. Definitely dinner. We’ll see about the rest.” She winked at him and turned to open her car door.
They both looked up at the echo of footsteps across the lot. Tanner could see the censor in the older nurse’s eyes from where he stood.
Mandy sighed. “Well, you’ve done it now.”
“Done what?”
“Dragged me into your rumor. I’ll be the scarlet woman whether we have sex or not.”
He sighed this time. “You can just say no. I’d understand.”
She looked up at him, and her green eyes sparkled. “I could, but what would be the fun in that? You’ll just have to make sure you make it worthwhile for me.” She opened the door and sat in the seat before closing it. He watched her put the key in then roll down the window. “I’ll see you at six?”
He nodded his head. She’d made the choice, even knowing the rumors. Hell, she’d point-blank asked him if it would just be him, and he’d told her no. Still, she’d accepted. So, he hadn’t shared everything with her. She didn’t know about Dylan, or the fact they liked to get a little kinky in the bedroom. Somehow, he didn’t think that would faze her.
She started the car, and he took a step back from her open window.
“Until six then.” He knew his eyes showed the desire he felt. But Mandy didn’t seem turned off by it. In fact, he’d swear she was as aroused by the thought of sex as he was. Hell, he should have said yes when she asked if he was inviting her over for sex.
He headed back to where Mitch stood as she pulled out of the lot and drove away.
“Well, what did she say?”
“I’m picking her up at six.”
Mitch lifted his brow. “Just you?”
“She asked that as well. I told her no.”
“And she agreed?”
“She agreed to have dinner with us.”
“What about Dylan?”
“He won’t be home in time for dinner.”
Mitch shook his head. “So, you didn’t tell her there was a third to our little group?”
“She didn’t ask.” Tanner looked at Mitch and changed the subject. “She asked Lorraine if you were gay.”
Mitch laughed. “Like we haven’t heard that before. Women just don’t seem to understand how we can like to share without sharing each other as well.”
“It’s all those erotic books that are everywhere now. I can’t believe women enjoy reading about two men together.” Tanner shuddered. “I like fucking my dick up a tight little ass, but I want it on a woman.”
Mitch laughed. “I agree.”
“She asked if I was inviting her over for sex.”
Mitch paused with his door open as Tanner took the driver’s seat and shut the door. Tanner watched Mitch as he finally sat and slammed the door closed.
“And?”
“She didn’t say no.”
Chapter Two
Mandy couldn’t believe she’d agreed to dinner with Tanner and Mitch. Hell, she’d pretty much told Tanner she’d have sex with them. She’d asked him if he was inviting her for sex. What had she been thinking? Her pussy clenched, and she felt the moisture coat the inside of her thighs. She’d thought how good it would feel, that’s what she’d thought.
She’d fantasized about a ménage for a long time. She had a big addiction to erotic romances, and those were her favorites. Honestly, she always wanted the stories where there were three men and one woman. The thought of that much cock focused on her was so arousing. She wanted to feel a big dick in her pussy, one filling her ass, and another poised right in front of her mouth just ready for her to suck and lick on.
She slid a hand down over her bare stomach until she reached the triangle of hair she kept above her pussy. She was so turned on that she’d never sleep if she didn’t take the edge off. She found her clit and rubbed her fingers over it, moaning at the way her pussy reacted. She was so wet, so hot and ready. She slid her other hand under the pillow on the other side of the bed and pulled out her vibrator. She was glad she’d left it there instead of putting it away after she’d cleaned it.
Panting in anticipation of how good it was going to make her feel, she flipped the switch and turned it on. Her fingers moved a little harder over her clit as she ran the vibrator over her nipples. She undulated as they tightened to even harder points. She could easily imagine Mitch and Tanner bending to suck them into their mouths. She liked hard, deep pulls that seemed to reach down to her clit and make her pussy spasm.
That was why there should be a third guy. She needed one for each nipple and one to lap her pussy. It was her fantasy, so she just closed her eyes and pictured a third guy with his head buried between her thighs. He’d lick and finger-fuck her pussy while they ate at her nipples. Her finger pinched and tugged at her clit pushing her closer to orgasm while her vibrator was still playing over her nipples.
She pulled it away and spread her thighs wide. She needed to come. She ran the penis shaped toy through her folds, coating it with her juices and moved her finger to let it brush her throbbing clit. She moaned and thrashed. It felt so good. She pictured Tanner between her thighs, imagined the toy as his cock. She groaned and licked her lips. That would mean Mitch was at her mouth, ready to fuck inside and give her a taste.
She pushed the vibrator against her opening and cried out as it thrust deep. She moved her fingers from her clit to spread her pussy lips instead. Each thrust of the vibrator had the clit stimulators on the side hitting exactly where they were meant to. She wanted her nipples sucked while she was fucking herself. Twisting her head to the side and bending her neck, she was just able to slide her tongue over one turgid tip.
She jabbed her nipple with her tongue as she increased the tempo of her strokes. She was so close. She thought of the two detectives switching places, so that Mitch could fuck her while she sucked her pussy juice off Tanner’s cock. She loved the taste of herself on a man’s dick. It turned her on.
She cried out as her orgasm ripped through her. Her pussy clenched on the toy, and she eased her strokes as she shuddered. When she couldn’t take it anymore, she turned the vibrator off and slowly eased it from her pussy.
She lay there panting for breath. She needed to get up and clean the toy. She should probably put her butt plug in as well. It had been a while since she’d had anal sex. She grinned again as she remembered Lorraine telling her about the rumors. The other woman had probably expected her to be horrified. If Lorraine only knew the truth… Mandy was probably kinkier than the two detectives.
She forced herself to get up and head to the bathroom. She wondered if they brought their cuffs home with them. She thought of the fur-lined pair she had in her toy box. What would they think if she brought them with her to dinner? Would she be able to talk them into cuffing her and fulfilling a few cop fantasies she had?
Or was she screwing up again? It was her kinky sexual desires that had sent her looking for a new job to begin with. And she’d chosen a smaller town to work in, hoping the rumors her ex had started wouldn’t follow her here. So what did she do? Jump at the first kinky invite she received. Maybe she should call Tanner and cancel.
She groaned. She couldn’t. She’d put her number and address into his phone, but not taken the time to get his in return. She sighed. She was almost thirty years old. She didn’t really care what anyone else thought. But Danny had made it impossible for her to stay at her old job. He’d been all too willing to share things that should have been private. He’d told his buddies how she liked to be tied up and fucked in the ass—his buddies who worked with them at the hospital. They all worked in the pharmacy with Danny, but still. A hospital was like a high school when it came to rumors. She would never date anyone she worked with again. Lesson learned there.
Then he’d gone ape shit when she’d broken things off with him. He wouldn’t leave her alone. Finally, it had gotten to the point where he’d harassed her at work. Her boss had been nice, but when Danny had caused a scene at the hospital, it had been suggested she might need to take some time off. She’d turned in her resignation and received her last two weeks as vacation. They hadn’t wanted her back. At least they had subjected Danny to the same deal.
Now, she was in a new place with a new start. Lorraine had point-blank told her about Tanner and Mitch. And the other woman had seen her talking to Tanner in the parking lot. But Mandy could handle rumors. She could handle gossip and other people speculating. What she couldn’t handle was one of them doing what Danny had done. And these men were cops. She’d like to think that meant they were decent guys, but she’d heard far too many stories where cops were the bad guys.
