“Ah, that’s a nice present you have there for me, Zee,” he said, the edges of his voice roughened.

Why did that always get to him?

Rory continued kissing his neck, nipping at the skin. Turning him around, he shoved him against the counter. He took Zeke’s mouth in a rough, possessive kiss. Zeke felt the scrape of Rory’s teeth against his bottom lip. He shuddered in reaction. He couldn’t help it. Rory pressed his groin against Zeke’s.

Bloody hell.

Rory paused and looked behind Zeke, who followed his line of vision and saw Maura watching them from the stairs. Damn, she was wearing that tiny yellow string bikini that barely covered all her naughty bits. Whenever she wore it, he wanted to either cover her up so people couldn’t see her—or tear the fucking thing off her.

“Don’t stop on my account, boys,” she said. He would have never known she would be so turned on watching them, but she was.

“Boys?” Rory asked. “I think we’ve proven more than once that we are a little bit more than boys.”

She walked down the stairs, taking her time as she watched them. “No, really, you shouldn’t stop.”

Zeke knew that most women who came to their bed did it as some kind of challenge and they often became jealous if Rory and he spent too much time together. For Maura it was different. He knew that part of it was her love for him. But, now, there was something else he hadn’t expected. She was turned on by his interaction with Rory. Zeke was pretty sure that hadn’t happened before now.

“I’m fairly certain you don’t call the shots around here,” Rory growled.

She stopped a few feet from the two of them and cocked her head to the side. “Yeah?”

He heard the challenge in her voice and he looked at Rory. Their gazes locked.

“I think she’s questioning my authority here, Zee.”

“I think she is too,” Zeke said and they both looked at her.

Her lips curved and his heartbeat kicked up a notch. “So, whatcha going to do about it, guys?”

Zeke almost laughed at Maura’s challenge.

“I think girlie here thinks we are supposed to listen to her. Be at her beck and call,” Rory said.

Zeke almost wanted to tell him they were already there. One day and he knew that Rory was falling for her, for this thing the three of them shared together. But for some reason, he wanted to hold back. Rory would freak as soon as he told him, or made him face what was happening.

“I think you’re right,” Zeke said. “She sort of needs to be punished.”

She tried to look angry with them. He knew she was having a hard time of it though. Especially since he could see her nipples were already poking against the thin fabric of her bikini.

“I told you I don’t like when you talk about me like I’m not here.”

Rory growled again, the sexy sound urging on Zeke’s arousal. Lord, there wasn’t a man who could make him lose it like Rory and now, dammit, he was caught between the two of them.

“I don’t think I asked your opinion.”

The cocky smile she gave both of them was full of teeth. “Well, I gave it.”

Again there was the challenge. The fact that she felt comfortable enough to do this told Zeke that she was already at ease with Rory as her Dom. He just wondered how long it would take her to figure it out.

“Hmm,” Rory said, as he turned and opened up the refrigerator and took out the whipped cream he’d bought the day before. He set it on the counter. Zeke knew what he was doing. He was acting casual as if nothing big was going on. But in the next second, he turned with lightening speed and went after Maura. She let out a sound that was half laugh and half scream and ran. Zeke was laughing himself when Rory cornered her in the dining room. They were standing on opposite sides of the table in a standoff.

Zeke had never seen Rory act so free with anyone with well.

“You’re cornered, Maura. Come out now.”

He knew there were rules to the D/s relationship that he didn’t always understand, but this; he would think Rory would be pissed. Instead, there was an unholy gleam in his eyes and Zeke’s heart melted just a bit. The man didn’t laugh enough and for some reason, Maura had been able to get him to loosen up.
