Lisa's Gift (17 page)

“Stop,” she choked out.

“More,” he whispered as he turned the vibrator to a throbbing pulse.

Her spine rolled with sensation after sensation. “Nicolas, please.”

“I recommend you find something to try on. Because this time I want to see your beautiful body flushed with arousal.” As a salesclerk walked by, Nicolas said, “Excuse me.” He picked up a lacy thong out of the bin.

“She would like to try this on.”

The saleswoman smiled as her gaze scanned Nicolas’s length.

“Excellent choice.” She batted full eyelashes.

If Jana hadn’t been in the throes of desire, she might have decked her. Instead she had other things on her mind. One of them was simply 124

walking. Her legs felt like jelly. The temperature in the room was rising.

Her heart was racing and she had the uncontrollable need to grab Nicolas and rub her body up and down his. Slide her wetness across his leg while she worked on Nicolas’s zipper.

By the time they made it to the fitting rooms, Jana was barely holding back the moan that begged to be released. Instead she gulped down a deep breath, tightened her vaginal muscles and prayed she’d make it into the room. When the saleswoman opened the door Jana dashed inside, tried to pull the door closed, but it halted with a sharp jerk.

Nicolas’s hand rested on the door. “Don’t forget these.” He held out the panties. Her mouth opened as if she planned to berate him, but she gasped instead as the beginning of her climax released. “Come for me, Jana,” he whispered against her lips, pushing her over the edge. She grabbed the panties and slammed the door, sure that everyone in the store, hell, the entire mall, heard it. Then she melted on the seat, almost sliding off it as her orgasm washed over her. She arched, jerking with each spasm tightening her pussy, contractions that made her shake.

The deep, throaty groan she released elicited an, “Are you okay, miss?” from the salesclerk.

“She’s fine. Just excited about our shopping excursion.” His lie stroked Jana’s ears as if he caressed the sensitive spot between her thighs. The emptiness inside her screamed to be filled, to taste the girth of his cock deep inside. She moaned again because she couldn’t help it.

Her nipples felt raw, as if they scraped against sandpaper instead of the silky fabric of her sundress. Again Nicolas supplied a lie. “She loves dressing for me. Do you mind if I take a look?” Nicolas asked casually, but Jana could hear the edge of excitement in his tone.

“We’re not supposed to allow a man and a woman in the same stall, but…for you…”

Jana couldn’t take much more. The clit stimulator was relentless. As she reached to dislodge the vibrator the door opened and her tormentor stepped inside.

“Gorgeous, honey,” he said aloud for the salesclerk’s benefit. His voice dropped low and quiet as he issued a warning. “Do not remove my toy, doll, or I’ll be forced to punish you.” He ran a finger down her arm eliciting another tremor. “I’m not finished with you.”

Jana swallowed hard, trying to hold back the scream perched on her tongue.

“I don’t think I’ll ever be finished with you.”

If only it was true
, Jana thought.

Trembling, she let her legs part, hoping that the damn thing would move away from her crotch. Leaning over her, Nicolas slipped a hand beneath her dress and pressed the clit stimulator closer, more firmly against her wet pussy. She arched her back, squeezing, “Fuck you,” from her tight mouth, as another wave of electricity surged through her body, tossing her about on the seat. She couldn’t have held still if her life depended on it.

Nicolas cupped the back of her neck, pulling her to her feet and to his lips. He took her mouth in a brutal kiss. The thump in her chest was her heart as he released her with a start. “Later. I promise.”

Jana couldn’t stop her arms from folding around him. She pulled him to her, hungry for more. With a powerful thrust she ground her hips to his. As if to show who was in control, he switched off the stimulator, extracted himself from her embrace, and backed out of the fitting room, leaving Jana alone and shaking with need.

What was going on with her? Why was she letting this man have freedom over her body? Truth was that all this was new and exciting to her. For so long she had lived such a boring and lonely life. Lisa and Nicolas made her feel like she belonged and was a part of something special.

Within a heartbeat she would have easily let him take her, even knowing that a salesclerk stood beyond the door. And if she were truthful, watching him fondle the remote control, teasing her, had made her hotter than hell. She wanted him to activate the vibrator. More 126

astonishing, she wanted to come in front of a crowd. And she would have if he hadn’t forced her into the dressing room.

“How did they look?” The salesclerk’s sexy purr sounded more like an invitation to showcase the next pair of panties herself.

“Gorgeous. Now I want two of the black and rhinestone outfits like the one in the display case.”

Jana tried to remember what ensemble he referred to. Then she heard a low moan in the next stall and knew it was Lisa.

The door swung shut as Jana exited the dressing room. “Two?” Jana heard the rise of hope in the salesclerk’s voice. Surely the saleswoman didn’t think the second set was for her. The smile on her face fell when Nicolas said, “The blonde in this other room belongs to me, too.”

Belongs?
Did she belong to him?

He opened his arms and Jana went willingly into them, giving the salesclerk a smirk for good measure. Amazingly, she did feel like she belonged to him, or at least wanted to until this game played through. He pressed his lips to her forehead, then he snaked one arm around her shoulder. As the saleswoman turned to retrieve the lingerie he requested, Lisa exited with a sated grin on her face.

“Thank you, Nicolas,” Lisa breathed. He held out his free arm and Lisa slipped next to him.

A young man shopping with his girlfriend walked by with a grin plastered on his face. Admiration gleamed in his eyes. “Yeah. Buddy.” His gaze scanned both Lisa and Jana with envy. His girlfriend punched his arm but he just laughed and wrapped his arm around her shoulders as they walked away.

When the salesclerk returned she handed Lisa and Jana each a black corset that laced loosely in front with silver rhinestones, so three inches of their skin would be bared. The tiny matching thong had a row of rhinestones that connected the front and back of the panties.

Nicolas’s hand slid down Jana’s back until it rested on her ass, and then he gave her a subtle push. Lisa moved forward in perfect unison www.samhainpublishing.com 127

with Jana. “Girls, make sure they fit. I’ll wait for you at the register. Oh, and I want those panties Jana tried on.”

Jana hadn’t tried the thong on. She hadn’t had the opportunity since she’d been thrown into an orgasm that took every bit of her attention.

But obviously she would be trying it on in the future.

Once she was in the changing room, Jana slipped her arms into the corset as she thought about what just happened. Who would have thought? Certainly not in her wildest dreams would she have believed she was capable of this irrational behavior.

Yet, it was exciting to push the boundaries of propriety.

Perhaps Lisa was right. Jana slipped one leg and then the other into the panties and pulled them up, riding high on her hips. Maybe they both just needed to let go and simply feel. Widen their horizons. Couldn’t she just once grasp onto something that felt so right, so good?

She turned to look at herself in the mirror. Her lips were full and slightly pink from Nicolas’s kiss. The black against her fair skin and her auburn hair was striking. Jana couldn’t remember when she looked sexier. Pressure built in her chest, emotion she had fought down for years. She wanted to be sexy, wanted to be loved. Not one to dream for the impossible, she knew there wasn’t any hope with Nicolas, but maybe someday—someone.

“Jana, I love it. What do you think?” Lisa’s voice floated over the top of the dressing room.

“Very pretty,” Jana replied, starting to undress.

“Pretty? Nicolas has a wonderful eye for clothing and women. Now we need heels to go with it.” Lisa laughed.

And apparently that was exactly what Nicolas had on his mind as he ushered them toward the nearest shoe store. They found the perfect silver and rhinestone stilettos that looked like they were made for the lingerie.

Male pride sparked in Nicolas’s eyes. He set down the packages he was holding and pulled Jana into his arms. “Doll, tonight I’m going to take you to places you’ve never been.”

Jana felt paralyzed in his embrace, drowning in his eyes and ready to travel the world in his arms.

The flickering of the light on Nicolas’s telephone announced a message awaited him. He set down his packages, hit the hands-free button and dialed in his password. Over the speaker he heard:

“Hey, buddy. This is Trent. Sorry, but I’ve been called out of town.

We’ll have to reschedule tonight’s party in about two weeks. Looking forward to meeting your new woman.” Then the recorder went dead.

Disappointment rose on quick feet, but maybe this wasn’t all bad. He disconnected the call and dialed Lisa’s telephone. He couldn’t wait to hear Jana’s voice, but it was Lisa who answered.

“Hello.”

“Hey, baby. Change of plans,” he said.

“Oh, yeah?”

“Party’s been canceled. Trent had to go out of town. Why don’t you and Jana come over and I’ll fix you that meal I’ve been promising?

Afterward maybe we could go over some of the aspects of Trent’s party to ensure Jana is comfortable with our plans.” This was going to work out even better. Jana needed more time to become accustomed to their way of life, and to him.

“Sounds good. What time?” He wasn’t surprised when Lisa agreed so quickly.

“How about seven? I need to go to the store and get a couple of things.” If he was going to try Chicken Marsala again he wanted fresh ingredients, and the time to properly prepare it before Lisa and Jana stole his attention.

“Until seven.” Her voice was a breathy release as she hung up.

Lisa’s Gift

Damn, Lisa was hot. But it was a certain redhead he couldn’t get out of his mind. His gaze went to his packages, remembering the French maid and naughty schoolgirl costumes, and he grinned. Perhaps a little role play was also on the menu tonight.

After putting away the things he bought from the mall, he exited his house and climbed into his truck. He always kept a well-stocked kitchen.

There wasn’t much to buy, except some fresh chicken breasts and more garlic, perhaps a fresh bouquet of flowers and candles.

Tonight he wanted things to be perfect. Why it mattered he didn’t really know. All he did know was that he wanted Jana to feel comfortable with him and his home.

Again Jana dressed to match Lisa’s attire. They both wore short evening gowns, Lisa’s red and hers emerald green. Funny, but she hadn’t been dressed this formally in over three years and never twice in one year. It just wasn’t really her style.

But she had to admit that it made her feel sexy. The way the silk slid over her curves was arousing. And she knew that Nicolas would appreciate her appearance.

As she took one last look in the mirror, Lisa sauntered into her old room. “You look beautiful.”

“I look overdressed,” Jana retorted, pulling the short thing down only for it to pop right back up where it was supposed to be at mid-thigh.

Lisa sat on the bed and then patted the mattress for Jana to join her.

“Come here.” Jana took the few steps it took and sat. For a moment her friend just looked at her. “You’re having fun with Nicolas and me, aren’t you?”

Jana felt a warm blush overtake her face. Man, she hoped this wasn’t going to be a heart-to-heart discussion.

Lisa placed her palm on Jana’s thigh. “Don’t you dare be embarrassed.”

“Lisa, it’s just sort of weird.”

“When has weird ever offended you?” Lisa tittered and then it faded as her features grew serious. “If anyone would have told me that you and I were going to be engaged in a ménage a trois, that you and I would make love, I would have laughed in their faces.” Moisture misted her eyes. The deep breath she inhaled was ragged, as if she fought for control to continue. “But I want to let you know how much it’s meant to me,” she choked. “How much it means to me that we are comfortable with each other. That we have this time together, because I do love you, Jana.”

This conversation was awkward. Still, Jana said, “I love you, too. But, Lisa, you have to admit this is weird. You… Me… Nicolas. What’s supposed to come from this relationship?”

Again Lisa chuckled. “Ever the logical one.” She shook her head and a single tear fell as her expression again went serious. “Nothing—

something—everything.” She squeezed Jana’s thigh. “Don’t try to analyze it, just go with it. Nicolas and I are wrong for each other. We both know that, but we have found similar ground to meet on. We like to fuck.” She swatted Jana’s thigh playfully. “Now let’s get going. You haven’t tasted anything until you’ve tasted Nicolas’s Chicken Marsala.”

Within ten minutes they were in Lisa’s Corvette and headed for Nicolas’s house. As Lisa chatted about the new homes and schools that were popping up all around the valley, Jana watched her. Her friend’s mood swings, not to mention the headaches, had Jana worried.

“When was the last time you went to the doctor about your headaches?”

“What?” Lisa’s attention jerked toward Jana and then back to the road ahead of her. “I thought we were talking about the development in Arizona.”
