chapter 5

Freshly changed and cleaned up, Lola walked into the living room and bit back a smile at the sight that greeted her. Bringing her fist to her mouth to hide her smile.

Puca and Bodach lay sprawled together, a tangle of long arms and legs. The slants of sunlight highlighting the muscles on their chest. She creeped closer to the sleeping men, taking a moment to admire their beauty.

It wasn’t often that she got to see these two peaceful and not arguing. Though she supposed now that she knew it was foreplay and not actual fighting. It made it more intense as she thought about the fights she had witnessed between them in the brief time that she had known the fae men.

“Want to join them?” Merrow asked as he stepped behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist.

“Merrow,” Lola chided.

“Trust me, when I say they wouldn’t mind.”

Lola shivered as she thought about his softly spoken words. The idea of being between the two dominant men had her pressing her thighs together.

Which one would take control of her, or of the other one? She could imagine Puca tangling his hands in her hair as he kissed her, his cock thrusting into her as Bodach watched with hungry red eyes.

Or maybe even Bodach tying the other man down, making him give up control. Just for the moment.

Bringing her hand up, she threaded her fingers through his. She brushed her thumb against his palm, the sound of the shower running pulling her from her thoughts.

“I should fix breakfast before I leave.” Lola mumbled.

“Or you could not and join them. I like to watch as much as I like to be a part of the fun.” Merrow said, as he brought his other hand up. Pushing the strands away from her neck so he could trail his fingers over the fading love bites from the night before.

“Merrow, are you trying to get me fired?”

“No, you have your job to do and I have mine.” He said as he traced his fingertips over the shell of her ear. Smirking as she shivered. “My job is taking care of your needs.”

“Tease.”

“Am I though, if it’s a for sure thing?” He asked as he moved closer, sucking the lobe into his mouth and teasing the flesh with his teeth.

Lola tilted her head giving him better access, “Yes, you are because you know I’ve got things I’ve got to do today. After that then I’ll be all home all day.”

“Lola to myself all day?” Merrow purred as he let go of the lobe.

“Nay,” Puca said sleepily as he turned to look up at them. His eyes meeting Lola’s, “He had you all day yesterday, I’ll be going with you.”

Lola bit her lip as Merrow chuckled huskily in her ear, “Looks like one of us will be taken care of by Puca.”

“When has he ever left you wanting?” Bodach asked as he tossed an arm over his eyes. “It’s too bright in here.”

“Oh, he leaves me plenty wanting.” Merrow said as Lola looked between the two men and the tented sheets that covered their morning erections.

“You could always sleep in my room.” Lola said and Bodach moved his arm, turning to look up at her with a slow smile.

“Inviting me to your bed for another round?” Bodach asked as he licked his bottom lip.

“Yes, well no. I mean, it’s not as bright in my bedroom as it is out here.” Lola said, stepping out of the loose circle of Merrow’s arms.

“You scared her off.” Merrow said with a pout as Bodach turned over and pushed up to his hands and knees. The sheet falling to the floor as Lola clapped her hands over her eyes.

“You’ve already seen all of me, acushla.” Bodach chuckled as she peeked through her fingers.

“There are others-” Lola stammered out.

“This isn’t something they haven’t seen before.” Bodach teased, running his hand down taunt abs.

“Bodach.” Puca said with a growl as he sat up. Reaching over, he popped the other man’s ass with an open palm.

Turning to glare down at Puca, Bodach let out a growl.

“See, Foreplay.” Lu said as he walked into the livingroom and flopped onto the couch.

Lola face felt hot under her palms as she scurried to the kitchen away from the chuckling Merrow.

Lola smiled at the woman who opened the door to Erik’s shop as she walked in, Puca following close behind her. His arms full with the chest that she and Merrow had picked up yesterday. Lola gave her thanks at the woman as Puca sat the chest down on the counter.

“Hello, Is Erik not here today?”

“He’s always here. He’ll be down in a moment.” The woman said as she studied Lola. Puca turned back to look at the woman and stepped closer to Lola.

Lola dipped her head before turning to look at Puca as he pulled her closer to him. His fingers tangling with hers.

“Are you friends with Erik?” Lola asked.

“You could say that.” She said pushing her blonde hair over her shoulder as she looked to Puca and Lola’s clasped hands with a slight smile. “I’m Callie.”

“It’s nice to meet you, Callie,” Lola said with a smile, “I’m Lola.”

“I know,” she said, pushing her blond curls out of her eyes. “I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Puca’s fingers tightened around hers and she glanced up at him, wondering if Callie’s words were making him jealous.

“Sorry to have kept you waiting.” Erik said as he walked down the stairs.

“It’s no bother, we were just talking to Callie.” Lola said. She tried to pull her hand from Puca and he tightened his grip.

Erik’s eyes moved to their hands with a frown as he looked towards Callie. “I thought you had somewhere you needed to be.”

“I just wanted to stay to meet your… Friend.” She said with a smile that was anything but friendly.

Erik nodded at her, “Til next time then.”

Callie turned towards the door and Lola caught the grimace that graced her lips as her hand connected with the doorknob.

Lola didn’t say anything as she watched the woman leave, but she could feel Erik’s eyes on her. Not so much on her, but on the two of them.

“Erik, would you mind if I used the restroom?” Lola asked, finally pulling her hand free.

“By all means.” he said gesturing down the hallway, his eyes locked with Puca’s golden gaze.
