She rolled her eyes. “I’m bisexual, although I’m not attracted to many guys. You’re an exception.”
“You don’t say.” Malachi pinned her with a blue stare.”Is that why you kissed me the other day?”
“I won’t deny I find you attractive,” she hedged. It was more than that, but now wasn’t the time to get into it.
He frowned and bit his lip. Her heart sank – she felt like an ass. Nothing like coming on to one of your best friends and finding out the feeling wasn’t mutual.
“I know I’m not as pretty as Reece. It’s okay if I’m not your type. It was just a suggestion.”
“Oh jeez, Scarlet. It’s definitely not that. I’m just thinking... What happens when you decide you don’t like me that way? Will it fuck things up with us? Will you be able to stay friends with me after?”
She looked at him uncertainly. “I think so. I’ve never actually done it, but I think I’ll be okay.”
“You’ve never given a guy a blowjob?”
“No. I’ve never done anything with a guy.”
Reece cut in. “She’s gold star.”
“I don’t know what that means.”
“She’s never been with a guy.”
“You’re a virgin?” He sounded skeptical.
“Hardly,” Scarlet smirked. “I’ve just never had more than a couple of girl fingers in me.”
“She won’t even do insertable toys.”
Malachi groaned and gripped his hard-on through his jeans for a moment. “Why are you telling me this? I need to be concentrating on your tattoo. Shhh.” He yanked on another pair of gloves, looking determined.
The machine hummed back to life and this time when Malachi touched the needle to her back she sucked in a breath and held it.
“Don’t hold your breath,” he growled. “You’ll faint on me.”
She exhaled and tried not to shiver. It sounded so mean when he got dommy, but did she want him to dom her? She got off on him domming Reece, but she had no desire to give him her power. Her pain – hell yes – but handing power over to him held little interest.
The needle felt like it was scraping along her skin, like Reece did sometimes with her nails, but...more. She whimpered a few times, trying to hold it in, but eventually he forced a moan from her.
“You like that?” he asked suggestively, just loud enough to hear over the machine.
She nodded mutely and shut her eyes, feeling somewhat better now that she didn’t have to hide it, though it was still embarrassing.
Reece moved closer and stood between her legs where they dangled off the side of the chair. She licked at Scarlet’s lips for a moment then kissed her demandingly. Scarlet was panting now, trying hard not to move. Reece’s hands slid up Scarlet’s sides and cupped her breasts. She caught her nipples between her fingers and squeezed, making Scarlet cry out in pleasure. Muttered swears drifted over her shoulder from Malachi, who was still working.
The tension in her body intensified until she couldn’t bear it. She broke the kiss with Reece. “Stop, stop, Malachi!”
He pulled his hands away from her back and Reece slid a hand down to press hard on her clit through her jeans and pinched her nipple. Her muscles knotted then it broke over her, sending ripples through her body. She screamed intoReece’s mouth and ground into her hand. Rougher fingers toyed with her breasts, then put increasing pressure on her nipples until she thought they’d bruise. Her arousal spiked and she came, then again as she realized it was both of them touching her.
“Salt...salt...” she begged weakly. All of the confusing hands stopped and the two of them pressed close, petting her. She melted into them, feeling like all of her bones had been removed.
Reece laughed. “Scarlet has made me safeword an orgasm before, but I’ve never managed to get her to do it. Apparently I needed a helping hand or two.”
“It was my pleasure. Literally. Now, are we finishing this tattoo today, or do you need a break?” He was running his fingers through her short hair and it felt exquisite. She’d pay him not to stop.
“I need a smoke.”
“You don’t smoke,” replied Reece.
