Author's Notes: Thanks to my betas
schizophrenic &
masteralida. Also to
not_from_stars for being one of those that helped be a sounding board when I got frustrated with this fic. Thanks to
casper_san for being my artist during a rough personal time.
Technically, this story is a sequel to my fic
Connections, but it's enough of a stand alone that you don't need to read that fic first to read this one. Writing this for
polybigbang was the perfect opportunity to write the sequel to the first story.
Audrey’s eyes slowly opened. There was an obvious ache between her thighs and her backside, memories of what had not been a dream coming to mind as she remembered both Duke and Nathan deep inside of her. She blinked a couple times, turning to look at the body she felt beside her. Duke was awake, watching her as he lay with his head propped on his hand.
“Hey sleepy head,” he said softly. “Glad to see you among the living again.”
“Hey,” she said softly, her voice husky. “Did I... really black out?” She realized that the bed felt off, as if there wasn’t enough weight on it for three bodies. She turned to look to the other side of her, but no one was there.
“Where’s Nathan?” she asked.
Duke smiled softly, brushing his fingers over her shoulder. “He went to get some things for himself at home and grab some of my stuff off my boat,” he said. “We figured one of us should stay, in case you woke up. Didn’t want you thinking we just left after...”
“Oh...” Audrey’s body relaxed under the explanation. She was glad they had that thought, even without Nathan there, not knowing at first why, she had pondered the idea he regretted what had happened. Once again, she had vocalized part of her thoughts.
“Never,” Duke said quietly. He lowered his head and brushed his lips against her shoulder. “Regrets are in the past, we decided. Time to stop hiding, especially now, with you.”
Audrey turned to look at him more, her fingers coming up to instinctively run through thick mass of dark hair. “Especially now with me?”
“You haven’t guessed, even after hearing our conversation before making love?” Duke asked, amusement dancing in his eyes.
“My head is still a little cloudy and wrapping itself around what we did,” Audrey admitted. “It all seems a bit surreal.”
“You complete us,” Duke said plainly. “I’m sure Nathan will affirm it when he gets back, but he and I always had a connection, but we needed something more to make it perfect. We just never thought that something was actually a someone and that someone was you.”
“Such sweet words,” Audrey said, her tone teasing. She didn’t want to fully admit how much it made her melt inside.
“I can have them now and then under good circumstances,” Duke said. He brushed his fingers along her arm then moved to brush them over her cheek and into her hair. “You make us whole, Audrey. It doesn’t matter what we’ll face; the troubles, scrutiny over a three-way relationship. None of it matters to Nathan or I as long as you are with us.”
“You mean that,” Audrey said.
“I do,” Duke said. “Very much so.”
Audrey lifted her hand and brushed against Duke’s cheek before pulling his head down to hers, kissing him softly. When his tongue slipped past her lips, she felt her body immediately react and her pussy ached with the need to feel him inside of her again. She wondered if a part of her should feel bad, if they were betraying Nathan by succumbing to passion again without him, but any thought of that fled as Duke settled more of his weight on top of her.
“I need you,” Audrey whispered against his lips.
Duke smiled against hers, shifting his hips until his cock slid into her easily. “You have me,” he whispered back.
Audrey’s fingers dug into his shoulders. It felt as amazing as it had the first time and she wondered if that sensation would ever fade. She doubted it would, but then thoughts didn’t matter as Duke flexed his hips against her. She wrapped her arms around him, her right leg draping around his waist and hip to rest her heel against his backside.
“Duke...” His name was a desperate plea spilling from her lips as their bodies moved against one another. They barely parted, his hips flexing and releasing against hers, angling just so to push his cock deep into her body. Each thrust drove them both higher until pleasure crashed over and around them.
Audrey’s name was pulled from Duke’s throat in a low groan, his head lowering to bury in the curve of her neck as he continued to push and pull inside of her body, feeling her spasming around him with each motion. He felt her leg slacken its hold around his waist as he paused, taking in a shuddering breath.
She brushed her hands over him, tracing the patterns of his muscles beneath the skin, committing it to memory. She saw something out of the corner of her eye and turned, feeling her heart thud against her chest when she saw Nathan staring at them.
“Nathan...”
Duke turned his head, looking at the man he had loved for a long time. His expression seemed unreadable and he suddenly wondered if his inner thought had been wrong. Would Nathan be pissed that they had continued without him? He didn’t think he would have, but his expression seemed unreadable at the moment and Duke wondered if he had thought wrong about his lover.
“Nath--,” he started.
“Do you realize how gorgeous you two are together?” Nathan’s voice was husky, need hanging off every word. Duke finally scanned him and noticed just how much Nathan was affected by the two of them together.
“How... how much did...” Audrey was fumbling over her words, Nathan’s own not penetrating the passionate fog that still swirled around her.
“All of it,” Nathan said, closing the door and locking it. He had already put down everything he brought. A duffel for himself, a duffel for Duke, and a bag of groceries. No need to go hungry while they spent time together. “I came in just as Duke slid into you.”
Duke shifted off Audrey when she tried sitting up. Both had groaned softly at the feel of her moving against him, Duke’s cock too spent and sensitive to have been any good to her. Nathan, however...
“I’m sorry, Nathan,” Audrey said. “We should have--.” Nathan had moved close enough to lean in and silence her with a kiss, his fingers brushing over her exposed breast. All too soon, for both Duke and Audrey’s thoughts, the kiss ended.
“Parker, you don’t have to be sorry,” Nathan said. He sat on the edge of the bed. “If Duke had been the one to go get our things, I wouldn’t have been able to wait either.”
Duke huffed a laugh. “Gee, thanks,” he said.
Nathan simple grinned before continuing. “Besides, it can’t always be about all three of us,” he said. “Time is going to come when you and Duke need one on one time, you and I will and Duke and I will. I’m hazarding a guess that we’ll figure things out as we go.”
Audrey sat straighter, looking between the two men. “You... want this to be a permanent thing?” she asked quietly. There was something fragile in her tone, something that screamed at the fact that she had been rejected and abandoned too often in her life. Knowing she had grown up in an orphanage and even from her birthday weekend of discovering no one had shown her even the kindness of a party simply solidified the idea.
“Why wouldn’t we?” Nathan asked, confusion crossing his features.
Duke scoffed and shook his head. “What Nathan is so inelegantly saying is that, yes, we want this to be a permanent thing,” he said. “Remember what I said, Audrey.” He reached up and brushed his fingers against her cheek. “You complete us. We need and want you as much as each other. Question is, do you want and need us?”
“You need to ask?” Audrey asked him. Duke and Nathan both smothered grins that wanted to form when Audrey instinctively leaned into Duke’s touch.
“You needed to,” Nathan said.
Audrey shifted and scooted closer between them. She reached up one hand to Nathan, the other to Duke. She couldn’t, wouldn’t, make one think one was more important than the other to her. She pulled their heads to her, pressing her lips to both of theirs together. It was all they needed as they returned her kiss, three tongues vying for attention with one another. Duke was the first to pull back, brushing his fingers along Audrey’s neck and shoulder. He slipped off the bed, heedless of his nudity.
“Where are you going?” Nathan asked him.
“I’m going to take the groceries and unpack them,” Duke said. “It’s your turn, Nate. Time for you and Audrey to have some one on one time.” He gave them a smile before grabbing his discarded pants. He quickly slipped them on before grabbing the bag of groceries and disappearing into the other room.
Audrey looked at Nathan nervously. It seemed different with Duke then it did with Nathan, but she wanted him just as much. There had always been a nervousness around Nathan, probably because she thought he couldn’t feel her touch for the longest time. With Duke, things were easier, they had always felt right. With Nathan, they felt right, but she had always felt a barrier between them as well. Now that barrier was gone and she had to quickly rationalize what she had been suppressing with him that she hadn’t with Duke.
“Duke puts you at ease, doesn’t he?” Nathan seemed to pick up on her hesitancy.
“We’ve had... something between us from day one,” Audrey said. “All three of us. But you kept me at a certain distance and I let you. I didn’t question it because of who we were. Partners, co-workers. There were never any distances between Duke and I. I just never expected us to actually cross into that existence of being lovers.”
“But you wanted to.” Nathan wasn’t judging, merely stating. It was his quiet, unassuming nature. It was who he was.
“I wanted to,” Audrey said. “With both of you, but I always felt you were off-limits. Then there was Jess...”
Nathan nodded, his hand curling around hers. “I can understand that,” he said. “And Duke? Was he off-limits.”
Audrey smiled softly, thinking of him. “I don’t think Duke does off-limits,” she said. “At least I thought.” Her mind thought back to what led them here, Duke’s words about Nathan’s former girlfriend putting the moves on him.
“And now?” He meant both of them.
“If I can have you both, and it sounds like that’s what you want... it’s what I want. But I still am nervous about... us,” she admitted. “Duke and I have had an easy flirtatious relationship from day one. To slip past those barriers and turn to lovers seemed... natural.”
Nathan grinned a little. “Parker, I fucked your ass ‘til you passed out from pleasure at Duke and I inside of you,” he said. “Now you get nervous and wonder about us being intimate being natural or not?”
Audrey gave him an incredulous look. “When you put it that way it sounds--.”
Nathan silenced her with a kiss. He pressed her back, letting the sheet fall away from her body. Why she bothered covering up, she had no idea. Nathan, however, had far too many clothes on. As his tongue slipped past her lips, her fingers moved to the buttons of his shirt and began to slip them from the fabric to pull it away from his skin. Once unbuttoned, Nathan quickly shrugged out of it and tossed the fabric aside. How they managed to undress him without parting, neither really knew, but all Audrey knew was that Nathan pressed, skin to skin, against her side.
“Roll onto your stomach,” Nathan murmured.
“What?” Audrey asked.
He nipped her lower lip. “Trust me, Parker.”
Audrey had, and always would, trust Nathan. She shifted until she was stretched out on her stomach. She had to admit that she felt more exposed than before. She could feel the cooler air against her back and it brought the realization that nothing covered her nudity. Yes, both of these men had seen her naked. Had been inside of her body, but she still felt dangerously exposed.
Her eyes fluttered closed as she felt the soft warmth of Nathan’s lips brushing against the skin of her back. Fire began burning in the pit of her belly as he trailed his lips over her skin, first her shoulder blades then danced along her spine. Her ass clenched slightly as she felt his hand brush over the bared flesh, remembering how he had slipped his cock into her.
“Nathan...” His name was a needy plea that slipped from her lips. She felt Nathan smile against her before his fingers slipped beneath her hip bones. She felt the hairs of his legs tickling against the insides of her knees, urging them apart.
“Yes, Audrey?” Nathan finally purred. She could feel the heat of his body so close, but not close enough.
“I need....” She licked her lips.
“There’s something Duke didn’t quite tell you yet about me,” Nathan said.
“Wh... what?” Audrey asked.
“I’m sometimes the kinky one.” Then he was surging into her, his cock sliding between her wet folds and to the hilt. His hands only lifted her enough to angle into her, the rest of him pressing her into the bed. She was tethered and the feel was amazing as his cock pushed into her fully.
“Nathan!” Audrey couldn’t even process his words with the way he was taking her. Nothing unusually kinky, but definitely different from the standard position that Duke had taken. There was a small thought that it was the quiet ones you had to watch out for, then there were no thoughts as Nathan pulled almost completely out of her before driving home again. He never gave her time to recover from the feel of his body sliding into her before he was pulling out and pushing in again.
“Oh God, Nath...” Audrey gripped the pillows beneath her, the other hand reaching up to grasp the headboard. She had no leverage, no real grasp until she had grabbed a rung of the headboard. Even with Nathan pressing her body down into the mattress as he continued to pound her, she felt as if she was going to fly off the bed.
“Come for me, Audrey, I know you’re close,” Nathan whispered into her ear. Her eyes closed and she let her head fall forward, pressing into the material of the pillow beneath her as she let her body go. She flexed her hips backwards and all but screamed in pleasure as Nathan pushed into her over and over. She felt him stiffen above her before he came with a loud groan.
Nathan shifted to the side, falling to the bed beside her. He gave her a lazy smile, which only made her insides twist in the way they did when Duke gave her a mischievous smile. She moved closer, brushing her fingers along his lips. She lifted her head slightly when she heard the water in the bathroom turn on and the shower start.
“Duke must be done putting the groceries away,” Nathan murmured.
Audrey brushed her fingers along his lips again. “You should go to him,” she said softly. Nathan opened his eyes more, looking at her.
“Go,” she said. “It’s like you said. We’re going to all need someone one on one time together. And it sounds like you two need it after hearing what he thought...”
Nathan winced some. “You’re right,” he said.
“Go,” she said again. “We’ll focus on all three of us later. You two need time now.”
~~
Duke had one hand resting on wall of the shower, letting the heat of the water work out the kinks in his neck and back. He knew that there were going to be some jealousy issues amongst the three of them occasionally, he just hadn’t expected it to hit quite so soon for him. Maybe it was a matter of the unresolved issues between himself and Nathan. Hearing how much pleasure Audrey was getting from their mutual lover had left Duke very itchy and wanting to hurry into the room again, but he knew they needed the time together that he and Audrey had. Even if Nathan had watched as he said.
Nathan stepped into the shower, taking quick note that it was not a small shower, thankfully. He watched the water slide over Duke’s head and down the taut line of his back and over his ass. If he wasn’t so spent from his time with Audrey, he would have loved to slick him up and take him right then and there. Instead, he satisfied himself with gently touching Duke’s back before moving closer to the man, pressing his body against the solid length of him from behind.
“Hey,” Duke said, straightening the moment he felt those fingers against his back. He wasn’t going to hide the fact that he was rock hard. Not after listening to the two of them.
“Hey,” Nathan said, pressing a kiss to Duke’s shoulder. He smiled some as Duke tilted his head to the side to give him better access.
“I owe you an apology,” Nathan said. “For the last time we were together. And all the times we were. I should’ve told you.”
“Yes, you should have,” Duke said. “Can’t change the past though.”
“No,” Nathan acquiesced. “Can only move forward.”
“Can we?” Duke asked. “I know we told Audrey we want that, but can we really?”
Nathan shifted so Duke was partially turned towards him. He wanted to see the other man’s face when he said this. “Duke, I know I never said it before and I should have. You deserved to know. I love you. I also love Audrey. I’ve never felt more complete, more right than I have just the past few hours with all of us together. I don’t want to give that up. Ever.”
Duke stared at Nathan before he finally gave him a small smile. “Under other circumstances, I’d probably make a really smart ass comment... but I can’t,” he admitted. “Not after that.”
“Good, I’d hate to kick your ass when I’d rather be fucking you,” Nathan said.
“You aren’t fucking anyone for a little bit,” Duke said, his eyes trailing down Nathan’s body to his cock. “You are fucked out.”
Nathan smirked and wrapped his hand around the base of Duke’s rigid shaft, earning a soft hiss from the other man. “You aren’t.”
“Fuck no,” Duke said. “How could I stay flaccid while listening to you fucking Audrey in a way that gets those kinds of noises out of her?”
“You were getting some pretty nice sounds yourself,” Nathan said, stroking Duke from base to tip. He leaned forward and nipped Duke’s lower lip. “Let’s see what sounds I can get you to make.”
Duke had no chance to stop Nathan before he was kneeling and his mouth was surrounding Duke’s cock to the base. One hand found its way into Nathan’s hair while the other pressed to the shower wall to steady himself.
“Fuck, Nate,” Duke moaned. “Forgot how good you are at taking me down your throat.” The only response he received almost had him coming as Nathan murmured around his mouthful. His grip in Nathan’s hair tightened as Nathan began moving his mouth over Duke’s cock. Considering how soon it had been since he had found release in Audrey’s body, he wasn’t going to last long and he wanted to be inside of Nathan when he did let go. He tugged on his hair, pulling Nathan’s head away from him.
“I need you, Nate.”
“Been awhile,” Nathan said, rising.
“Yeah it has,” Duke said. He turned Nathan and pressed him to the shower wall. “Think you can still take me?”
“I know I can. I can always take you,” Nathan said, pressing his hips back against Duke. The other man groaned as his already teased cock pressed against Nathan. Gripping Nathan’s hip with one hand, he guided his cock to his ass, pressing the head of his cock against him. Taking Nathan’s other hip in hand, Duke began pushing into him.
“Fuck,” Duke said softly. “Been too long...”
“Damn,” Nathan said. “I forgot how good you feel.”
“So tight... you haven’t...”
“I can only feel your touch, Duke,” Nathan said in a husky voice. “Why would I...” He didn’t finish the sentence, pushing his hips back to Duke, taking the full length of his cock into his ass.
“Nathan....” Duke groaned. He pressed his chest to Nathan’s back, taking a moment to savor the feel of the other man’s ass surrounding his cock and keeping himself from coming. After a moment, he felt Nathan’s hips shift and knew that he needed to move.
Straightening, Duke held Nathan’s hips firmly and began to move his own. His cock worked back and forth inside of his lover, the tight muscles pulling and releasing as each man moved. Nathan leaned heavily on the wall, resting his head on his forearms. Pleasure sliced through him with each push of Duke’s cock into his ass, made all the more erotic by the spray of water hitting them and sliding along his skin. To Duke, he felt all of it; to Nathan it was hit and miss, entirely dependent on where Duke was touching him as if he was the connection that Nathan needed to feel everything. As water slid over his ass and between his legs where Duke was moving, it was an added tease to his senses.
“Duke,” Nathan groaned. “Oh fuck, I’m going...”
“That’s it,” Duke said, pushing his hips harder against Nathan. “Take me, Nate. Tell me...”
“Harder,” Nathan finally got out. “For fuck’s sake, fuck me harder.”
Duke smirked, his grip tightening on Nathan’s hips. “Almost forgot how much you liked getting fucked ‘til you screamed.”
“Then shut up and make me scream,” Nathan growled.
“Happy to.” Duke’s hips began moving only fast enough to drive his cock harder and deeper into Nathan’s ass. Nathan arched his head up, bowing his back to push his hips back into Duke. His cries of pleasure grew louder and more frequent until he pounded a fist against the wall and Duke felt him come so tightly around his cock that it drove him over the edge, spilling his seed into Nathan’s ass as he came.
By the time the two men had separated from one another and took turns washing and savoring each other’s bodies again, the water had gotten cold. Duke and Nathan both reached for towels, drying themselves off before leaving the bathroom to rejoin Audrey, only to find her gone. Worried, the men glanced at one another before they heard her in the kitchen.
“You know you have to do a repeat performance later,” Audrey said without looking up from the pancakes she was making, hearing the two men padding into the kitchen on bare feet.
“Parker?” Nathan asked.
She shifted a hip, wearing only one of Duke’s shirts. Nathan and Duke had to admit, they liked the look on her. “I want to know what Duke was doing to you to make you scream and moan like that,” she said. “You got to watch Duke fuck me, I want to see him fuck you.”
“One condition,” Duke said, moving around the counter. Audrey quirked an eyebrow, all but melting into Duke’s embrace when he wrapped his arms around her. She shivered when, first, his fingers brushed her hair away from her ear and then his lips brushed her ear.
“I get to watch Nathan fuck you,” he murmured huskily. Nathan grinned when he saw Audrey immediately nod, leaning back into the other man’s embrace. It was a sight that he could get used to, especially as Duke began teasing the skin of Audrey’s neck and she melted into him more. He watched Duke’s fingers working at the skin of Audrey’s thighs, brushing just under the hem of his shirt. Yes, this was definitely something that he could get used to seeing day in and out. He hadn’t felt this complete in a long time. Looking at Duke, he knew he felt the same way. Then he saw him smirk before saying:
“So, Nathan, have you told Audrey about your bondage kink?”
