He held his weight off of her, but his arms trembled, and his head hung low to her breasts. They stayed like that for a long moment, both of them sucking air, bodies sated for now, hearts still thundering in the aftermath of what felt like a nuclear explosion—or something really close.

Finally, he grasped the condom around the base of his cock and rolled to one side, slid out of bed, and went into the bathroom to dispose of it. When he got back to the bed, Dar was sitting up, leaning against the headboard. He crawled into bed beside her and pulled her into his arms. She went willingly, feeling unaccountably sad that this couldn't possibly last, but she still snuggled against his damp chest. He'd sweated even more than she had.

She ran her fingers through the happy trail beneath his navel. “I don't remember you even putting that condom on. Thank you for thinking of it, because I sure didn't.”

“I had it on when I woke you.”

“You woke me? I thought I just woke up.”

He grinned at her and kissed her. “You did, after I tickled your nose. Then I sort of tweaked your nipple, like this.” He demonstrated.

Laughing, she batted his hand away. “No wonder I woke up. You realize it's only four in the morning.”

“I know, but I needed you. Hoped I could convince you what a great idea it was.”

“You were right, but damn, I'm so easy.”

He laughed. “That you are. It's one of your finer attributes.”

Her hand slipped lower; she wrapped her fingers around his penis and stroked him. He was actually flaccid for the first time in a long while, but his shaft reacted to her touch, quickly filling her hand as it grew engorged and erect.

He sighed. “Now look what you've done.”

She smiled sweetly and turned him loose. “I was merely proving to you that you're easier than I am.”

He didn't say a word, but his fingers slipped between her legs and gently stroked. Her clit was still sensitive from her orgasm, and her inner muscles clenched in reaction to his touch. In what seemed like merely seconds he took her to the edge and held her there, whimpering with need, begging for him to finish, to set her free.

He thrust two fingers deep inside, and her body exploded.

Screaming his name, she flew. His laughter was its own music.

Tuck held Elle in his arms, his lips buried in her burgundy hair, their bodies sweaty and sated from the most amazing sex he'd ever experienced in his life.

She hadn't forced the issue, but it was obvious she'd figured them out. He hadn't had a chance to get together with the other guys and Trak, but they needed to talk. Had to figure out how to deal with this, because it was either the best or worst thing that could happen.

He thought of what she'd asked him, wondered if she'd been serious. He was taking her with him later today when he did his rounds in town, and he'd remind her of what she'd said, that she was interested in working for him as his assistant. Practically speaking, he really did need an assistant. One who could heal broken bones with her touch? Invaluable.

One who made him laugh, who was luscious and so damned sexy she made him ache? Absolutely priceless.

Jules awoke to a subtle but unfamiliar buck and sway, the bed doing its own rhythmic dance powered by both Manny and Drew. She lay there with a half smile on her lips, un-self-consciously stroking between her legs as she watched the two men making love beside her.

Drew lay on his stomach, his face turned toward hers, his smoky-blue eyes closed, long, light brown hair curling softly around his face, and a smile on his very kissable mouth. Manny covered him, his hair, longer and darker than Drew's shielding his face, the muscles in his arms knotted with tension, his muscular ass and strong thighs driving his rather large cock slowly and surely into and out of his partner.

He was so big, she was secretly relieved they hadn't wanted her to try that kind of sex last night. One baby step at a time, and having Drew sucking her nipples and Manny doing the same to her clit was just about as outrageous as she'd been ready to go. At least today.

She might be a bit more adventurous by tomorrow.

She certainly couldn't have imagined herself lying in a big bed next to two truly stunning men as they had sex with each other. Not only that, but giving herself pleasure—in full view if they chose to look—and doing it without guilt. That hadn't even been on her radar. But last night? That hadn't, either. The two of them had made her come so often and so ingeniously for hours that she was actually sore this morning, but it was a soreness she wouldn't trade for anything. She'd discovered that Drew really, really loved her large breasts. He's spent hours showing her just how much, and with Drew concentrating on all her erogenous zones above the waist and Manny on the ones below, she'd had an experience unlike anything she could possibly imagine.

She'd actually teased Manny, told him his tongue should be licensed. Just thinking of the ecstasy she'd experienced, what he'd managed to wring from her with his lips and teeth and tongue—and some rather ingenious use of his fingers—sent a fresh rush of moisture flowing between her legs. Well, that sensual memory and the current hot visual of two extremely luscious men treating Jules to her very own adult feature film.

These last couple of days had been filled with firsts. She'd never been the adventurous type, at least according to Andrew. But after they were dating and already intimate, he'd dropped the biggest relationship bomb ever, the fact he fully expected to share multiple sex partners and an open relationship with Jules.

That had been the beginning of the end, as far as she was concerned. And when she'd accused him of infidelity during that same conversation and he'd hit her?

She'd quit her job and Andrew the sleazebag dentist the same day.

Oddly, she didn't have a problem at all with Manny and Drew, but they'd merely offered her a fun week at the resort, not teased her with a lifetime commitment that meant absolutely nothing. Though she had to admit, after last night, both Manny and Drew meant something to her.

No woman could spend hours so intimately connected with two hot, fun, intelligent, thoughtful men and walk away unscathed. She would miss them. Miss the woman she became with them. She didn't even want to think what it would be like when she and the girls drove away on Saturday, but she knew it was going to hurt.

That was okay; it would be worth the pain. They were worth it.

And so was she.

Jules knew, with a clarity that shocked her, that that was the most important thing that had happened to her, being loved by two men, laughing with them at silly things, feeling so comfortable in her own skin. Without doing or saying anything specific, they'd given Jules back to herself, the woman she'd lost when Andrew turned on her.

All they had done was treat her with respect—more than that, they'd openly worshipped her body. To them she wasn't heavy or “matronly,” as one jerk had described her. She was voluptuous and full-figured in all the right places, and she knew they meant what they said. When they'd looked at her, touched her, tasted her, they'd done it with hands trembling with desire, with lips parted, and hearts pounding.

Because of her, and because of them, all of Andrew's hateful words had turned to so much dust. She pursed her lips and blew softly, and like that, he was gone, along with the ugly things he'd said. The pain he'd inflicted. The terrible words and cruel acts that had begun to define Jules in spite of her awareness that the man was a jerk, that he should have no power over her.

Well, obviously he had, because the lightness she felt now hadn't been part of her for a long, long time, and she gloried in her newfound freedom to be.

To be Jules again.

Her fingers were slick with her arousal, her heart pounding in her chest as she watched the two men, recognized the tension, their muscles taut with impending climax.

She raised her head. Drew's dreamy blue eyes were open, and he watched her. Without thinking, she moved closer and offered him her breast. He latched on to her nipple, groaning, gently squeezing her full curves with one big hand as he sucked her sensitive nipple tightly against the roof of his mouth with his tongue.

She felt the pressure like an electric shock running from nipple to clit and back again, two powerful erogenous zones connected by hot, wet suction and pure sensation. Drew slipped his hand between her legs and gently moved her fingers aside, thrusting into her moist heat, taking her closer to the climax hovering so close.

Jules arched her back, pushing her hips closer to Drew, and at the same time slipped her hand beneath his belly, found the thick length of his cock trapped against the sheets and circled him with her fingers.

He groaned and turned just a bit so that she had better access. Manny grinned at her as he continued thrusting slow and steadily into his partner. “Good morning, Jules.”

So polite. She giggled. “Good morning to you, Manny.” She squeezed Drew's cock, and his hips bucked. “And to you as well, Drew.”

He turned her nipple free, licked the tip, and said, “Good morning, Jules.” He glanced over his shoulder at Manny. “We've created a monster.”

“Damn, I certainly hope so, because she's absolutely sensational like this.” Manny winked at Jules and grabbed Drew's hips, lifting him to his knees so that his balls hung down between his legs and his cock angled up toward his belly.

Fascinated by Manny's easy strength and the pure carnality of the scene, Jules slipped beneath Drew's flat belly, took his cock in her hands, and angled him down to her mouth. This was something Andrew had insisted she do. She'd hated it. For whatever reason, she couldn't wait to taste Drew. She wrapped her fingers around the thick base and licked the ruddy tip, tasted the salty-sweet drops of fluid coming from the dark slit, and decided it wasn't bad at all. Then she sucked him deep into her mouth. She'd heard of women swallowing a man down, but that was going to have to wait for the next lesson. Instead, she concentrated on the last few inches of his erection and the smooth glans that filled her mouth.

She still had one free hand, and with that she cupped the wrinkled sac between his thighs, rolling the two round testicles carefully between her fingers. He groaned, and his hips jerked forward as Manny picked up the pace. She was glad she had her hand around the base of Drew's erection, because she would have had to swallow a lot more of him than she was ready for.

His balls drew up close to his body, and she stretched her fingers between Drew's legs to reach Manny. The moment her palm cupped his lightly furred sac, he let out a strangled cry and thrust his hips forward. Drew's hips jerked. He tried to pull out of her mouth.

She held on to Drew, held on to Manny's balls, and swallowed Drew's release as fast as she could. And the one thing she wished was that someone, somewhere had thought to get film of this, proof that she was not nearly the prissy female Andrew had called her.

Then she wiped that thought from her mind. He was not going to show up and ruin the most amazing wake-up call she'd ever gotten in her life. Besides, she hadn't done this to show Andrew anything. No, she'd done this entirely for herself.

Breakfast was a little late this morning, though from the satisfied looks on everyone's faces, time obviously wasn't an issue. Meg had slept really well. She'd fallen asleep missing Zach and awakened with him in her thoughts, but the big gray-and-black wolf with soulful brown eyes sleeping beside her had kept her from feeling lonely.

It was the weirdest thing, though, that when she'd wrapped her arms around the wolf and gone back to sleep for a little bit longer, she'd felt as if she were holding on to Trak. She had no idea why the beast reminded her of the man.

Think of the devil …

“Good morning, ladies. Do you have everything you need for your breakfast?

Elle slipped into her seat and glanced at everyone's loaded plates. “I have to ask, Trak. Are we eating low-cal fried potatoes and nonfat bacon?” At his stricken look, she laughed. “Didn't think so.” She loaded up her fork with part of her omelet. “That's why this all tastes so good.”

“C'mon, Trak.” Meg was having trouble not laughing at the look of relief on his face once he realized Elle was teasing. “Do any of us look as if we worry about calories?”

“None of you looks as if you need to worry about calories.” Laughing at himself, he shook his head. “But before I step in it again, I wanted to let you know that the guys and I have a short business meeting this morning, so you'll be on your own for about half an hour. Are you okay with that?”

“I think we can take care of ourselves for a bit.” Meg took a sip of her coffee and glanced at Dar. “You look like you're really trying to get into trouble, Ms. Ahlers. What's going on in that devious mind of yours?”

“Well…” Dar dragged out the word. “I wondered if we were allowed to gossip about the help while they're off meeting somewhere.”

Trak winked at her. “Good gossip only. We'll be at Growl, the bar you passed on the way in. It's our unofficial clubhouse slash office. We try to meet weekly to go over the upcoming schedule, so if you need us for anything, just pick up the phone in the office and hit the red button. It's a direct link to the bar.” He glanced at his wristwatch. “I should be back by ten.”

*   *   *

“Sorry I'm late.” Trak stepped into Growl and headed for the coffeemaker behind the bar. The guys were all sitting at one of the large poker tables, but cards were the last thing on anyone's mind. “The girls are having breakfast, and I told them how to get hold of us,” he said. “So what's the status? Do they all know what we are? And if so, are we screwed, or is it going to be okay?”

He pulled out a chair and sat.
