I mulled it over back home later. What did all that back there in their office mean? Was it just sex? I’d had “just sex” before, and this didn’t feel like that. Was it more intense because it’d been with three guys?…I mean, yeah, obviously. But at the same time, it’d been like nothing I’d ever felt before. Three big, gorgeous, insanely sexy, and totally hung men putting me at the very center of their attention.

Three powerful, dominant men that wanted to dominate me, but also treated me like a queen, worshipping my body like I’d never imaged before. But again, it’d felt like more than just sex. “Just sex” wouldn’t have been so worried about me being okay with everything afterwards. Just sex wouldn’t have told me to take all the time I needed, and to let them know if I needed anything. And the funny part is, it wasn’t just sex to me either.

I’d felt something with the three of them that I’d never felt before. I’d felt safe, and protected, but also part of something that was more than me. It was like somehow, I’d had this insane connection with all three of the guys, and again, on way more than just a sexual level. I just needed to figure out what that was and what it all meant.I was sitting on Sasha’s back deck drinking a glass of wine after a long hot bath when she got back home that night.

“What's eating you?” “Hmm? Nothing.” She eyed me, and then the glass of wine in my hand hungrily before sighing and cracking her lemon-lime soda water and slumping down into the chair next to mine. “Rough day at the office?” “Yeah,” she sighed, wincing and reaching down to rub her calves. “It’s a whole company, and I usually have Jordan and Luke to help.” “Right, and you’re pregnant.” She laughed. “Right, that.” “When do they get back again?” “A few days,” she grumbled.

“Good thing you’re a superwoman who can handle anything then, right?” She rolled her eyes. “Hey, nice dodge by the way.” “What?” “I asked what was up with you, and you totally just put it on me instead.” I grinned. “I’m wise to you, Holloway. So how was the first day? Those guys turn out okay?” “They…yeah.” I quickly hid my face in my glass of wine to hide the red bloom. “They’re young!” I looked up sharply. “I did some poking around since Camelot Holdings is so damn secretive.” She shrugged before winking at me.

“Young and hot.” “Hey, you are a taken woman, lady,” I teased. “By two adoring men, I might add! How many do you need?” Sasha laughed along with me, but deep down, all I could think was one thing: How many did I need? “Doesn’t mean I don’t have eyes.” She stuck her tongue out at me. “So how was your first day working for those three hunks?” I turned scarlet before I could hide my face again. “Oh do tell.” Sasha’s eyes went wide as she learned forward.

“Noting, it was fine,” I said quickly. She held my gaze, like she was trying to peer inside my head. “Stop it.” She laughed. “What?” “You’re doing that thing where you act like you’re reading minds.” “Maybe I am.” I rolled my eyes. “They were fine, just…” “What?” “Okay, I’m going to ask you something, but it is strictly hypothetical okay? Do not look into this, please. Nothing is happening, and I’m not saying anything by this, I’m just curious.” Sasha laughed again.

“Whoa, easy there. What is it?” “The work thing, with you and Jord and Luke.” I frowned. “How does that work?” “How do we all work together you mean?”I nodded and her face went serious. “You really want to know?” I nodded. Sasha took a deep sip from her soda water, her face serious as she held my eyes. “Lots of office sex.” I groaned as she snorted and laughed. “I’m being serious!” “So am I! I’m telling you, if they ever brought a black light into any of our private offices? Oooh, or the conference room?” Sasha fanned herself as I went bright red.

“Oh, and oral. Tons of oral.” My face went an even deeper shade of red as I perked a brow at her. “On them or you—ugh, God, never mind.” She laughed. “You really want to know?” “Not my business.” “Well, I’ll tell you anyways. Both. But those two love driving me crazy together with those mouths of theirs.” “Oh my God, Sasha,” I hissed, mortified as I buried my face in my hands. She laughed again.

“You did ask.” “Not really.” “So does that answer your question though?” “And then some.” “So, first day was ‘just good’ but now you’re asking questions about office relationships with bosses?” “I told you not to look into it like that,” I mumbled.“Ari, honestly, it works because it isn’t just a work thing. They made sure of that when we first got together. It’d never have worked if I was just their underling who happened to be their girlfriend. We had to be equals, and find that equal footing.” I nodded, looking away and drinking my wine. “You’re not going to tell me what happened today are you?” I shook my head, doing my best to hide my grin. “Fine, be a brat like that. But that’s my advice, for the issue you aren’t having. Find equal ground.”
