STEPBROTHER: The Bride's Surprise (FMM Menage Stepbrother Romance) (Contemporary Women New Adult & College Menage Short Stories) (6 page)

“This is number five,” Logan slipped his hands around Livy’s nape. He worked his long fingers into her hair and Livy’s blond tresses gave. Livy’s long hair spilled over Logan’s hands, soft and full.

“Good thing it’s not six. I have a thing about sixes,” Livy hesitantly said.

“Nothing short of sixes here,” Logan smiled. “Let’s see. I know part of the marriage agreement if we enter into it, is that we make our own rules. How about we leave our pasts, in the past?”

Livy gulped a taste of wine. “All right.”

“I’ll start,” said Logan. “We’ve learned nothing about the other. You know from my info I’m 6’5” and I work nonstop, except weekends. I have a brother, he’s 6’6” by the way, black hair, unlike me who is blond. What you don’t know is I work in advertising, since the matchmaker portfolios are kept private except for the basic info, and personally, that I like fine wine, Florentine sculpture, and classical reading.”

“About that,” said Livy. “You said you work at an agency?”

“Shh.” Logan bent Livy into his arms. Her blonde tresses fanned out around her shoulders and arms, and across Logan’s chest.

“I do work in advertising, and I do work at one of the biggest agencies,’ Logan bent to kiss Livy.

“I—I don’t think I know which one,” Livy looked up to find Logan brushing his lips against her, and she felt his hands roam under her suit as he found her buttons.

“Does it matter?” Logan undid Livy’s clothes.

“Mm, no—.” Livy said, her mind drifting to the lilt of Mozart and the feel of Logan’s gruff body in her arms.

He took her on the grass at the top of the amphitheater. Livy was relieved they were high up, so the only thing anyone might see was her and Logan in silhouette.

Logan rubbed his large male hands over Livy’s breasts. He nuzzled his face and his nose against her nipples, causing Livy to arch in his grasp.

Logan grazed her sensitive flesh with his hair-roughened lips and she moaned. Livy could never resist a day’s growth of beard in a man. It was one of the reasons why Livy had stayed with Jacques so long… but Logan’s eyes… Logan reminded Livy of somebody, but she couldn’t recall whom.

Logan flipped Livy onto her stomach. She gasped as she felt him bare her bottom to the night air. Livy felt Logan nip at her bared and rosy cheeks, slipping his tongue and his fingers between her thighs.

“Oh, what’s happening,” Livy whispered into the night air.

“Shh,” Logan spread Livy’s legs and her pants legs bunched around her low heels. “Let’s get you out of these,” Logan slipped off Livy’s pants, and her heels clicked three times while he shed them.

Livy sighed as Logan turned her onto her side as he introduced her to the pleasures of following the fabled Yellow Brick Road.

*****

Livy rode Logan’s massive erection like a cowgirl riding a stallion. The thickness of Logan’s blond shaft sent ripples through her core as bounced onto his hardness with vigor.

When Logan felt she couldn’t take the friction of his girth any longer, Logan lifted Livy off of his erection and he positioned her over his lips so he could sample her willing flesh. Logan licked and suckled on Livy’s tingling, swollen labia until she gushed, over and over.

Livy watched Logan’s immense sex swell and harden as warm molten jets of crème erupted from him, arcing high in the air and landing on the soft grass around them.

Hours later they made love again.

The next day Logan spilled into the Foxtail Ad Agency, whistling.

“What’s got you all excited,” Hudson grabbed his suit jacket.

“I wanted you to be the first to hear baby brother—.” Logan stuck a wrapped cigar in Hudson’s hand.

“Hear? What?” Hudson said.

“Your big brother’s getting married!”

*****

Poppy had Livy by the hands and she twirled Livy around and around in a circle inside Doggy Hearts.

“Oh my, gosh. You’re getting married!”

“Poppy, I don’t know what I told Logan,” Livy admitted. Livy had been so lost in Classical music and wine that she might have promised Zeus her firstborn.

“Can you hold on a minute, Poppy—.” Livy came back from the restroom, she was rubbing her tummy.

Poppy shook the 8-Ball Livy left on the counter for the kids to play with whenever they waited for their dogs to be returned to them.

“Livy?” Poppy eyed Livy slowly. “You did use protection, didn’t you?”

Livy turned and smiled brightly. “Yes.” Livy turned around and she touched her belly. No she hadn’t. She realized she had gotten so caught up with Logan, and also with Hudson, that she hadn’t even thought about what could happen after making love, and not just once, many, times, over and over, again.

*****

“Where are you going?” Logan followed Hudson out of the office.

“I’m going to see someone—.” Hudson got in his Lexus and he sped down the road.

Hudson saw his brother turning onto the street where he parked. Hudson crossed the street.

“What are you doing, following me now?” Logan stared at his younger brother.

They had been inseparable growing up, even when they discovered their father Dick had been with two women, before each of the mothers died. Logan’s mother had passed during a vacation trip to Napa. Logan learned Hudson’s mother had passed one evening in her sleep. Logan was 31 now and his brother Hudson was 29. They looked almost identical except for his brother’s dark Italian hair. Logan was fairer and blond like his mom was.

“Brother, what’s going on.” Logan walked with Hudson and both men dodged traffic to cross the street.

“Nothing—.” Hudson said with his hand on the door to the dog walking company, Doggy Hearts. “I’ve just come by to wish the woman you’re marrying a fond farewell,” said Hudson.

“What?” Logan blocked Hudson’s way. “You know her?”

“Yes,” Hudson brushed past Logan into the building.

Livy and Poppy stopped bouncing.

Two men, one blond, and one raven-haired entered the office.

Livy knew Poppy recognized Hudson from the Internet.  Poppy turned from the men to Livy’ and Livy shook her head slowly.

“Um, I’ve got some kibble waiting for me and the dogs. Welcome to Doggy Hearts,” Poppy left the office front.

Livy stared.

“Logan? Hudson..? What are you doing here?

“I think the more important question is, when is the wedding date?” Hudson said.

“What?” Livy walked up to Hudson. She stopped when she saw Hudson take a step backwards. “Hudson? What’s happened? Is everything at the Foxtail Agency all right?”

Hudson frowned. “Why should that matter? You said you would make me think about how I treated you. I guess you made good on your promise—.” Hudson reached for the door.

“Hudson!” Livy caught Hudson by the arm.

“You two know one another?” Logan turned from Livy and he looked at Hudson.

“Logan, we do,” said Livy. She turned and she leaned on the office counter. “I’ve turned everything into a mess!”

Hudson joined Livy. “It’s not your fault. You wanted a way to help the business. I tried to use the oldest trick in the book,” Hudson said. “But I think it backfired on the both of us.”

Livy looked up at Hudson’s dark, golden eyes, and she snorted a laugh. “You don’t know the half of it.”

“You mean, you and Livy?” Logan pointed at Livy and then at Hudson.

Livy and Hudson turned to Logan nodding slowly.

Logan started to smile. “Oh, crap.”

“Why are you smiling,” said Livy.

“Livy, remember our agreement to not share any of our pasts with each other?” Livy looked at Logan and she nodded.

“Livy, this is my brother, Hudson.” Logan said.

Livy bounded to her feet.

“What!”

Hudson turned to Livy. “I don’t know how this happened, Livy. I’ve tried to talk to you. You wouldn’t return my calls. The flowers were the only way I knew to let you know how I feel about you.”

“Flowers?” Logan approached his brother. “You’ve been sending my fiancé flowers?”

“Her mother.” Hudson replied.

Logan turned to Hudson, his eyes glaring. “You’ve met her mom?”

“Logan, this is not what you think—.” Suddenly Livy paused. She leaned back against the counter, flushed.

“Liv,” Hudson replied. “This is a lot to take in, I know. For me too.”

“What do you mean?” Livy said.

“Our moms used to experience the same thing right before they knew were pregnant,” Hudson said to Livy.

Livy felt the bottom drop out from her feet. “Say what? I can’t be. It took my mom six tries before she got pregnant with me. That’s completely impossible.”

“Unless you believe in sixes,” Logan said.

Livy stared at Logan, and she shook her head slowly. “I’ve been with the two of you, and, the two of you are, brothers?”

“Half-brothers, by marriage,” said Hudson.

“I’m the eldest,” preened Logan.

“And, do either of you remember if we used protection?”

Logan and Hudson shared a glance. Livy grabbed the counter for support. “Oh, goodness.”

Hudson and Logan rushed to Livy’s side.

“This is good news,” said Logan.

“No, it’s great news,” chimed Hudson.

“We love you, you’re going to have a baby. You’ll meet the conditions of your grandfather Donovan’s will, and you’re already engaged, to one of us—.” Hudson said.

Livy stared at Hudson and then she glared at both men.

“Have both of you lost your minds! Do you know what we’ve done—and practically
together
?”

Both brothers looked at one another. “Yes.” They said in unison.

“I love you,” said Hudson.

“I love you,” Logan said.

“Well I don’t love either of you!” Livy raced outside the building.

The sun shone bright on a lovely June day.

Livy saw two pairs of squirrels frolicking on the branches of a Willow.
You don’t know how easy you’ve got it,
thought Livy.

Hudson and Logan rushed to find Livy.

Livy stuck out her hand. “Now look you two. You’re both, great guys, I’m sure, and, you’re very handsome, for sure,” Livy said. “But I’m not ready to get married!”

Logan and Hudson looked at Livy.

“You were ready to wed me before you knew who we were,” replied Logan.

“Yeah. And you slept with me when I was the enemy,” said Hudson.

Livy shook her head. “You’re both just after my family’s company so you can steal it,” Livy rubbed her stomach again.
