He wrapped his arms around my narrow waist. His member pressed up against my sex and I rocked my hips against it, and then as he groaned I raised my hips up, grabbed his shaft in my hand and guided it inside of me. I locked my arms around his neck and rose up and down, loving the way he stretched me. He was big, but I was wet, so taking him into me was no problem at all. I shook as I slid further down his sex and my muscles pulsed around his manhood, already tensing, my body prepping for orgasm. I felt as if my entire being was gripped by sexual tension and I tried to maintain control as he stretched me even more, his shaft thickening inside of me.

Since I was naked in front of him, my breasts exposed to his touch. He sighed in pleasure as he let his mouth close over one nipple and then the other. I started to climax. He aroused me so much that it didn’t take much. As I began to climax, he stroked my clit with his finger and started kissing my ears.

The gentleness of his kisses paired with the feel of his sensual mouth was enough to push me over the edge.

“Dominic!” I screamed and he grunted as he gripped me tightly around the waist and thrust his hips up. Warmth spilled inside of me and I collapsed against his chest, breathing heavily.

There was silence as we luxuriated in post-coital bliss. I could somewhat hear his guests, but they sounded so far away. Almost hypnotically, Dominic rubbed his hands up and down my back. Finally he said when we were both steadily breathing again, “Maybe this is a little backwards, but how about lunch tomorrow?”

I grinned and kissed him on the forehead, “Call me.”

Chapter Four


H
i
, cutie,” Dominic said standing up to kiss me on my cheek. He looked so sexy wearing cargo pants and a blue shirt that matched the color of his eyes. Several of the women in the restaurant had stopped to look. He really was that handsome now that I could see him in the light of day.

“Hi,” I said feeling suddenly shy around him now that we were seeing each other again after our impromptu sexual romp.

He noticed it and said, “Is there any way to make this anymore awkward for you?”

I had to laugh, “Let’s just get this out of the way. I really enjoyed your party, especially the after party...next to the pool.”

“And I enjoyed getting to know your body, thoroughly and I would like to get to know you and your body better.”

“I think that could be arranged,” We enjoyed banter that is more playful and then we started to discuss what I considered quintessential first date topics: career, family, likes and dislikes.

It turns out that Dominic was previously in the military and had started his own security company that catered to executives overseas and apparently, he enjoyed his work as his face lit up as he talked about it. It turned out that some of the people I had met the other night were not only his friends, but also his coworkers, as most of Dominic’s operations took place in the digital world.

He seemed very interested in my job and asked a lot of questions about my favorite collections and rarest finds.

I had no problem answering and felt myself opening up to him. He was a great listener and a natural conversationalist.

I was so engrossed in our conversation that I didn’t notice we had company until Dominic looked up and said, “Can I help you?”

I looked up as well and was surprised to see Maximus standing at our table. He was dressed impeccably in another three-piece suit. He looked slightly annoyed by Dominic’s presence, but showed no signs of jealousy. In fact, he outright ignored Dominic and instead spoke to me.

“I didn’t expect to see you here. Having a little lunch date with your friend?”

“She sure is. Is that a problem?” Dominic said, stopping me from answering.

“I was talking to Liza, not to you.” He said to Dominic coldly and then turned back to me.

“Are you not allowed to answer questions on your own anymore?”

Dominic started to stand up and I grabbed his hand to prevent him from exacerbating the already tense situation. Were two guys really about to fight over me?

“Dominic this is Maximus. Maximus this is Dominic.”

Maximus didn’t say another word to Dominic. “I have additions to the collection that I would like to discuss with you. Contact me when you’re done playing with your boy toy here.” He then left without another word.

Dominic’s jaw began to twitch; he was gritting his teeth so hard.

“Who’s that? An ex-boyfriend?”

“Not even. He’s my newest client’s son.”

“Seems like a real ass-----.”

I stopped him before he could continue, “Yes, he can be, but then again, I just met him last week. So who really knows? Anyway, I’m sorry for that. Want to talk about something else?”

He visibly relaxed and we chatted a little more before I had to get back. He kissed my cheek and I promised to call him later.

As I headed to my office, I saw a limo outside the university’s library. I figured that Mr. Cornwell or Maximus was there.

When I walked into the building, Maximus was sitting there chatting with the department secretary at her desk outside my office. She seemed flattered by his attention and was giggling like a schoolgirl as she spoke to him. I rolled my eyes and Maximus winked at me.

“Oh! Ms. Matthews, Mr. Cornwell is here to see you.”

“Thanks, Kim, I noticed.” I said with a smile in my voice. “Come in, Maximus.”

I was more amused by him that anything else.

“So what is it about Dominic that you like?” Maximus said as he closed my office door behind him without bothering to ask my permission first. I’m not sure why I expected anything less.

“I thought you wanted to see me about the collection.”

“The collection can wait. So what is it about him that you like? You didn’t answer the question.”

He sat down in the chair across from me and I couldn’t help but notice how he had an air of royalty about him.

“We only just met. I like that he’s funny and easy-going and sexy.”

“I’m sexy.” Maximus said matter-of-factly with a small smile forming on his face.

“I noticed that you left out funny and easy-going.”

“I’m a man, not a puppy. If you want fun and easy-going, maybe you should get a Labrador.”

“You’re being obnoxious.”

“I’m being honest.” He then suddenly got up and came around the desk where I was sitting and sat down on it.

“Get off my desk.” I said poking at him.

He grabbed my hand and said, “If you give me ten minutes, I’ll make you forget all about Danny Boy.”

“Dominic. His name is Dominic.”

I tried to pull my hand away and instead with barely any effort, he pulled me from my chair and I was in his arms.

“Ten minutes,” he said against my lips. He kissed me hard on the mouth and said, “Time starts now.” He punctuated each word with a kiss and then he led me to the small couch situated near a window in my office.

“Five minutes, and maybe we should do this somewhere else. My secretary’s right outside,”

“I know. Maybe she’ll walk in and join us.”

“Maximus!”

“I love it when you’re outraged.” He then didn’t waste time as he pushed me backwards, kneeled next to me, raised my skirt, and trailed his mouth across the edge of my panties. I spread my legs and raised my hips as he pushed my panties to the side and started licking my clit. I bit my lip to keep from moaning and he slowly rolled my panties down my legs. I didn’t know where my reckless behavior was coming from, but I liked it.

He pushed my thighs apart and my dress was around my waist as he buried his head in between my legs, sliding his tongue back and forth across my folds. His name came out of my mouth, half moan, half whisper and I said for the record, “Four minutes.”

He laughed roughly and pushed a finger inside of me.

“Maximus!” I breathed harshly and started moving my hips forward so that his finger slid deeper into me. He slowly removed his finger and stuck it in his mouth, licking my juices that were there.

“Three minutes.” I gasped as he buried his head between my legs and started sucking and licking at my clit. He showed no mercy as he pressed down on my inner thighs. As I started to climax, I didn’t think about minutes, seconds, or time at all.

“That a girl,” Maximus said with a self-satisfied look on his face as he pulled back briefly and then with his eyes meeting mine, he sucked on my clit one last time and my whole body tensed up as I felt him now rubbing his light beard across my sex, as I came hoarsely shouting his name.

“You taste so good. I could do this all day,” he said as he lowered my skirt and gently closed my legs.

He stood up and didn’t say anything more. I let my gaze drift down his body and noticed that he was hard; his member pressing against his slim fitting pants.

He followed the direction of my gaze and smiled, “Maybe later.” Then he left my office, leaving the door open, calling good-bye to my secretary.

Chapter Five

M
aximus didn’t
mention anything about seeing me outside of work and I figured he got what he wanted that day in my office. Hence, I was surprised a week later when around midnight my phone rang and I blindly reached over and answered it.

“Hello?” I said sleepily.

“Are you with him?” said the dark voice on the phone that I instantly recognized as Maximus’.

“With whom?” I was still groggy and my mind couldn’t keep up.

“With Dominic.” I looked over at Dominic’s sleeping form and drew the sheet back as I climbed out of bed and went off in search of a place far enough from Dominic that I could yell at Maximus for calling me so late. I walked into my guest bedroom and closed the door.

“What does it matter, Maximus? You and I aren’t an item. You don’t get to tell me whom I can or cannot see. It’s twelve o’clock in the morning.”

There was silence. “I’m coming over.”

“Maximus, no! Don’t be silly.” I also added feeling guilty for no real reason, “Dominic’s here.”

Again, Maximus grew quiet and then he said words that served to both shock and arouse me.

“I’m coming over, and when I get there, I’m not going to be as gentle as your precious Dominic. I’m going to take you hard and fast. I’m going to fuck you so hard that you’re going to scream my name and beg me over and over again to bury my cock inside you and to not stop. Then when you’re screaming my name and can’t take anymore, I’m going to pull out and you’re going to wrap those precious full lips of yours around my dick until I come.”

I felt my knees go weak and I had to sit down. I shook not from fear, but from desire. My sex practically hummed in anticipation of everything he said and my mouth couldn’t wait to taste him. I could feel myself growing wet at his words and my breathing quickened. Without thinking, I found my own hand making its way between my legs and I moaned a little as I began to trace soft circles around my clit, pretending that my hand was Maximus’. I must have made a sound because I could hear Maximus breathing softly in my ear and if I wasn’t mistaken; his voice was a little breathless as well when he spoke again.

“Are you touching yourself?”

“Yes,” I said breathlessly.

“What are you touching?”

“My clit.”

“Push a finger in your pussy for me, Liza. Slowly. Pretend it’s my tongue pushing into you instead.”

I leaned back on the bed, opened my legs very wide, and did as he told me. I moaned into the phone and said, “What do you want me to do now?”

“Keep doing it. And then take two fingers and push it deep into your pussy and pull them slowly out.”

I did again as he said and I had to know, “Are you touching yourself too?”

“Yes. I’m so hard right now; it’s painful. I want you so bad, I don’t think I’ll make it through the night without you, but alas, I must. I hate that Dominic’s there instead of me. I hate it with a passion.”

“Shhh,” I said, “I’m taking off my bra and stepping out of my panties. What do you want me to do next?”

“Are your nipples hard?”

“Yes.”

“Can you touch them for me?”

I brought my now shaking fingers up and began to squeeze my nipples. I liked my breasts handled roughly and imagined that instead of my soft hands; a man who I wanted buried between my legs, Maximus, was gripping my breasts.

“I love your nipples. Are they really pink, my love?”

“Yes.”

“God. Do you know what I want to do to you? I want to flip you over and first, spank you for even entertaining another man and then when I’m done punishing you, I’m going to push you against the wall, spread your legs and slide my dick into you. When you’re writhing against my cock, I’m going to pull it out slowly and slam it back into you. And I’m going to fuck you until you can barely walk anymore, but you’re going to enjoy it, aren’t you?”

I couldn’t answer. I was too busy coming and as my breathing went back to normal; I closed my legs and sighed into the phone sleepily, but became immediately wide awake as Maximus said, “I’ll be there in ten minutes.” The line disconnected.

I knew he was serious so I rolled out of the guest bed and looked for my clothes. Dominic didn’t wake up and I crept back out of my room and then through the door. It was after two o’clock in the morning. Our neighborhood was safe, but crazy things could happen anywhere, but there was no way, I was going to let Maximus in. We would just have to face off on the front porch and I just hoped Dominic wouldn’t hear us.

Chapter Six

A
s I stood there waiting
for Maximus, I heard a sound in the shrubs to my left. It almost sounded as if someone were breathing. I quickly took a step back, startled enough to try to get away from the noise, but clumsily I forgot that the stairs to my porch dropped off abruptly and so I went down hard and felt pain reverberate across my body as my back hit the hard ground. My heart rate raced and I opened my mouth to scream when a hand gripped me around the ankle and pulled me towards the shrubs.

I kicked and fought, screaming the whole time and I heard my would be assailant scream suddenly and saw Lady Belle clawing at his face. He slapped her away and she landed with a sickening thud on the bottom step.

“I hate cats,” the man growled stepping out of the shadows. He was short and heavily muscular like a boxer and he radiated a stench from the sweat that pooled under his arms and across his wide chest. I backed up, still on all fours, attempting to shake his grip on my leg as Lady Belle again went in for the attack. He kicked at her and ignored her clawing at his leg as he easily disregarded her and reached down towards my shaking form.

“Your brother owes us a debt and we intend to collect,” was all he said as he attempted to grab me by my shirt to keep me from struggling. I knew my brother had been in some trouble from his gambling, but I would have never expected this.

As he leaned down, I kicked out with all my might and caught him on the chin. I attempted to run up my steps but he grabbed me and threw me down to the ground. I jumped up and ran, winded but not giving up. I caught a glimpse of Lady Belle launching herself at his face and they tussled on the ground. I wasn’t looking where I was going, too busy looking back at the damage Lady Belle was fortunately causing, and I ran into a rock hard chest. Maximus.

“What’s---” he didn’t get any additional words out as he saw the man now coming towards us with a gun in his hand.

“I’ll kill you both, but I just want the girl.”

“That’s not going to happen.” Maximus said quietly and I screamed and stepped back as his face began to blur, to shift, and to change. It was a horrific sight to see as his features distorted and his skin seemed to peel back. I stood there frozen in place with horror and I caught sight of Dominic now on the front porch looking in our direction. He saw what was going on and leapt gracefully off the porch. Then to my horror, his face began to blur too. I figured I was going crazy as I backed up and then I heard a growl as Maximus was now gone, but in his place was a large tiger with eyes the color of dark molasses.

I screamed and stumbled back, but the tiger wasn’t interested in me as it jumped into the air and I heard the thug sputter and then fire two shots at the creature. I was so frightened that I didn’t see where Dominic had gone. I screamed when the tiger flying in the air didn’t get his prey, instead the thug was tackled from behind by another tiger and I knew then that I was going insane. Where were these tigers coming from besides my imagination? This other tiger was pure white, an albino tiger it seemed and he mercilessly went for the screaming man’s jugular, tearing it out.

I screamed and attempted to jump up, afraid for my life, but fear froze my limbs as the tigers simultaneously looked back at me and then sized up each other. The albino tiger titled its head and growled and the other tiger just stared back, its eyes steady, dangerous.

I motioned to stand up, afraid they would hear me and come after me when the albino tiger again looked in my direction and the other tiger used that moment to spring on him. I got up and backed away slowly as they fought, growling and roaring.

It was then that I saw the gun had landed close to me and I raised my hand, reached for it unsure which one to shoot.

On shaky legs, I stood up and pointed, but promptly my hand lowered. I couldn’t shoot them; something was stopping me. The tigers seemed to sense my earlier intentions and turned their attention back to me, but instead of coming towards me, they began to morph, changing shape in front of me. The tigers’ skin began to stretch and instead of fur, there was sinewy muscle, human muscle and as their snouts began to form into human features, the white tiger became Dominic and the other tiger with the dark molasses eyes became Maximus.

They approached me slowly, naked and impassive expressions on both their faces.

“Drop the gun, Liza, or at the very least, point it towards Dominic.” Maximus said.

“I’m just glad you’re alright,” Dominic said stepping closer to me. “Stop scaring her Maximus.”

“I wasn’t the one who ripped out a jugular in front of her. By the way, you need to get rid of the body one way or another and I’m not particularly hungry.” Maximus said matter-of-factly.

With those words, I decided then to run.

Dominic caught me easily and I started to scream as his arms came around me. He covered my mouth and said, “I’m sorry, Liza, but we can’t wake the neighbors.”

I could hear sirens as he dragged me back towards my house and Maximus sighed heavily and picked up the thug’s body.

Dominic carried me kicking and screaming towards my bedroom. Maximus disappeared into my kitchen with the thug’s body in tow.

Dominic dropped me down on my bed and didn’t bother to close the door behind us. I was breathing heavily, afraid to move, looking at the open door.

“What are you?”

“A shifter.”

“What?”

“A shifter. You collect books. You must have read about my kind.”

“This is crazy.”

“I would guess so, for you.”

I just stared at him, wondering when I would wake up. This had to be a dream or nightmare.

“My kind can shift between animal form and human form. Is that really so hard to believe given what you just saw?”

“But there were two of you...”my voice trailed off. I couldn’t believe I was entertaining this conversation.

“Yes, Maximus was an unexpected, unwanted surprise. I knew there was a reason I hated him instantly besides him being obnoxious.”

He sat down next to me and I instantly backed up. “You just killed a man,” I said.

“Only because he was going to kill you. Did you want me to give him the opportunity to do so? I saw an immediate threat and I eliminated it.” I imagined this was simply a result of his military training, but even as my mind accepted that, I still had to fight back the nausea that clawed at me.

He had a valid point and I felt my body shaking from the adrenaline. He cautiously reached for my hand. I didn’t pull away; his presence calmed me more than it frightened me. I didn’t know why.

He gradually brought me in his arms and said, “I’m just happy that you’re okay.” It must have been the adrenaline or the need to do something primal that reaffirmed life, because I found myself running my hands over his still nude body.

“Are you sure you want to do this?” He asked cautiously.

“Very sure.” I said against his lips. I reached up and switched off the light.

Things heated quickly and Dominic practically clawed my clothes off. I didn’t care. I wanted him badly. Before I knew it, he was ripping my bra and panties from my body. I knew I wouldn’t be wearing those again as I heard them literally rip in half as he threw them across the room.

There was no foreplay, just a desire to have him inside of me, and so when he flipped me over, my whole body shuddered reveling in the feel of him. My emotional and physical feelings eclipsed one another and I couldn’t tell if what I felt for him was love or lust.

I didn’t have a chance to ponder anything else when I became aware of another presence in the room.

Maximus just stood there, leaning casually against the wall watching. He had his shaft in his hand and he lazily rubbed his startlingly large erect member up and down, playing with the tip, which seemed to glisten in the moonlight. I watched him watching Dominic enter me so forcefully that my body rocked forward with each of his movements and then Dominic pulled out until just the tip of his dick was still inside of me and I screamed for him to give me more.

“Dominic,” I gasped, “Please.”

From the shadows, I could here, Maximus’s voice, “You’ve had your fun, Dominic, now it’s my turn.”

My sex tightened around Dominic’s member at Maximus’s words, basking in the feel of Dominic, squeezing and clenching around his cock buried inside of me, while also getting wetter in anticipation of the delicious things I knew Maximus was capable of doing to me.

I knew the image I made with my backside in the air, Dominic thrusting into me as I moaned and beckoned him to enter me to go deeper and faster than he had before, must be driving Maximus insane. Dominic on the other hand was a different story. Upon hearing Maximus enter, Dominic didn’t bother to stop. I didn’t know if he was too focused on what he was doing to my body to acknowledge Maximus or if he just didn’t care enough about Maximus’ presence to stop.

Then he turned and looked at Maximus and they exchanged a glance. Maximus still nude from shifting earlier, approached me and then suddenly Dominic pulled out of me, rolled me on top of him, and nudged me up so that my sex was on his face. Maximus grabbed me by my hair and brought my mouth down to his cock. I greedily sucked it in while kneeling over Dominic’s face as his tongue and mouth worked ceaselessly to give me pleasure. I began to bounce my hips up and down on his face and simultaneously I brought all of Maximus in my mouth and he said not a word. He just kept my head locked in place, pushing my mouth up and down his cock as he breathed deeply.

His member was so big it nearly choked me. I tried to get it all in my mouth and when I couldn’t, I gave my attention to his balls, licking and sucking them into my mouth and then I bent down further and let my tongue trace a line to his taint.

He snatched my hair back and said, “That’s enough.”

Maximus snatched me off Dominic and tossed me across the bed. My sex still quivered and throbbed from the feel of Dominic’s tongue earlier and I wanted Maximus next. I got my wish as he settled on top of me. I couldn’t see him because the only source of light was the hall light that crept under the door, but I knew he was there, as he pinned my arms above my head and slid his thick, hot cock into me. My eyes adjusted to the light as Maximus hammered into me; Dominic kneeled over my pinned arms. He trapped them between his knees as he leaned over me to play with my breasts. Pulling and kissing my nipples, being anything but gentle.

I didn’t know whose name I called first. Between the pleasures of Dominic playing with my breasts, to the feel of Maximus inside of me, I lost control and began to scream. My body shook, my inner muscles tightened and my head felt like it was about to explode as my orgasm rippled across me. Maximus threw his head back and grunted before coming inside of me. My sex clenched and unclenched around him, massaging his dick, milking out every last drop of his cum and as I did, Dominic’s gentle kisses on my face, my mouth, my neck set fire to my skin. He ran his fingers through my hair and I sighed feeling drowsy and spent.

Maximus slowly pulled out of me and I immediately missed the feel of him. Dominic gathered me in his arms and laid me against his chest. I sleepily blinked at Maximus who stood near the foot of the bed looking down at us as he said, “I don’t spoon. I’ll see you all in the morning.”

Dominic didn’t say a word nor did I. I just rolled my eyes and settled into Dominic’s arms. I knew I should have been focusing on contacting my brother or the fact that the two men who I just had inside of me weren’t human, but my body and mind were tired. I let myself gradually drift off into a deep, restful sleep. The world wasn’t what I thought it was, but as for then, nestled safely in Dominic’s arms, all at least was right with me.
