Double Fantasy — Three Lives, Three Nights (Muse of Shadow)

If you had asked me anytime before that moment, I would have told you I had never thought about this before. I would have said that sharing myself as part of a threesome had never been a fantasy of mine, that it had never even crossed into the realm of things I wanted to try.

If you had asked me before that moment, I would have been wrong...

When her relationship with two close friends turns into something stronger, a university student finds herself caught up in a pair of unexpected liaisons -- and then invited to be the forbidden fruit in a relationship between two men she hasn't had enough of yet.

This 13,000-word erotic novelette is an explicit and graphically detailed story of romance and sexuality, exploring male bisexuality, casual encounters, first-time sex, and group sex. It is intended for adults only.

EXCERPT (SFW)

I remember saying goodbye to Janeane and watching her saunter off with a history major named Jessie that she'd had her eye on. I'd seen him with his eye on her most of the afternoon, staring at her ample rack whenever her attention was away from him. And though it was more unexpected, I was pretty sure I saw Kyle B checking me out as I put my tank top back on at sunset, the heat of the day cooling quickly as the breeze shifted from off the water.

He and I were the last ones left, the conversation having changed gears into a strange stream of nostalgia. He talked about his family in a way he usually didn't, and listening between the lines, I got a sense of how much his drive in school was a reaction to their expectation of his success. We compared notes on work placements, and on jobs that classmates a year ahead of us were moving into.

Then he surprised me when he changed the tone of the conversation even further. "I heard about you and Kyle getting together," he said.

It took me by surprise, because it was the first time anyone had spoken of that brief fling, including me or Kyle A. It didn't feel awkward in the mention of it. But I did feel a sudden twinge of guilt about being pretty sure how Kyle had heard about it.

"Sorry if we woke you," I said with a smile. I could feel myself blushing, which I almost never did.

He smiled back. "I'm a light sleeper and it's an old house. You get used to it."

"Well, it was just the once," I said, laughing. "I promise it won't happen again."

"I was actually hoping it might. But with me."
