Next in the
Meeting Each Other Series: Carol, Lin & Niall
Excerpt
‘What? You
don’t want to be disrespectful to your friend, but as host she sets
the boundaries, yes?’ Lin glanced at the ceiling. She smiled. ‘If
she can have sex upstairs and her brother can watch porn all night,
why can’t we do what we came to do?’
‘Doesn’t it
feel icky to you?’
‘No.’
‘We don’t even
have a bed.’
Lin shrugged.
‘Beds are personal. Even our homes are too personal for what we’re
planning. Neutral space is good. Less conflict, yes?’
‘She has a
point, love.’
Carol opened
her mouth. Closed it. By the time she looked out from beneath her
hands, Lin had moved close enough to touch. She quickly put her
hands in her lap, trying, without success, to close her senses to
that faint scent of vanilla and jasmine.
‘Carol, I’ve
never done this either. But Fetlife is for trying new things. I
want to try. Or else I wouldn’t have met with you.’
‘I know.’
‘Then what’s
wrong?’
Carol looked at
Niall, rolled her bottom lip between her teeth, and clenched her
fingers in her lap.
Lin took a step
back. She dropped to a crouch and, even with her knees spread, the
huge dressing gown covered every inch of her body from the neck
down. ‘I’m nervous too. But I like you. Both of you. You’re very
sexy. Niall is funny and kind. Back home, so few people look like
you. Everyone is like me, small and pale.’
Turning back to
Lin, Carol saw the earnest intensity in her eyes. ‘I’m sexy?’ she
murmured.
‘Extremely.’
‘I’ll second
that, love.’
‘Beautiful
skin. Big eyes. I like that.’
Carol squirmed
on the sofa, shuffling her fingers. ‘Thanks, I guess.’
Niall chuckled.
‘Hell, she seems more interested in you than me.’
Lin winked.
‘Oh, I like you too. But I want to start with Carol. If that’s
okay?’
‘Suits me,
love.’ With a wide grin, Niall spread his hands.
‘I’m asking
Carol.’
That made her
look up. She stared at Lin, trying to read those dark eyes. They
gave nothing away and she wondered just how much of her thoughts
lived in her own expression. ‘I don’t know where to start,’ she
said. ‘I don’t normally do girls.’
Lin raised an
eyebrow.
‘I prefer guys.
I messed about with a couple of girls when I was sixteen. But since
then, just guys.’
‘Then why all
this?’
She shrugged.
‘Niall and I have been together for nearly ten years.’
‘And?’
‘She means I’m
boring.’
‘I don’t!’
Carol gripped a fistful of her jeans. She stared straight ahead.
‘What I mean is, I— no— we wanted something different. A
change. Is that so bad?’
‘Of course not.
But a threesome is a big step.’
‘I know.’
‘Especially
with a woman. So why not a man?’
‘Because, no.’
Niall broke in. ‘Just . . . no.’
Lin chuckled.
‘Fine. But this is okay?’
‘Two women
crawling all over my body? Hell yes!’
‘Good.’
Standing, Lin took a small step back and unfastened the cord on the
dressing gown. She did it slowly with covert glances through her
eyelashes.
Carol
stiffened. Even she knew the teasing nature of the show was for her
benefit. She put her hands in her lap and lifted her gaze high
enough to see the robe open.
‘Wow.’ Niall
gave a small groan.
‘You like?’ Lin
whispered.
Tiny knickers,
barely more than a strip of red lace and a matching bra with
diamante detail.
A lump filled
the back of Carol’s throat. She swallowed it with effort. ‘You’re .
. .’ One hand made a small circle in the air as if to find the
answer that way.
‘Hot?’ Niall
offered. ‘Freaking sexy?’ He bit his lip and slouched deeper into
the sofa’s embrace, knees spread. His hands lay on his
