“Tell us what you want.” Luca pulled one of her hands away from her face, sucking two of her fingers into his mouth.

Her eyelids went heavy, her nipples growing taut.

It spoke to their level of comfort that the three of them had been lying in bed, having this conversation completely naked, and it hadn’t felt a bit uncomfortable.

“I…” She pursed her lips in such a way that Luca suspected she was trying to think of a different fantasy, too embarrassed to ask for what she really wanted.

Luca tightened his grip, squeezing her hand. “Say it, sunshine. It’s us. There’s no judgment here.”

She tugged her hand away, wrapping her arms around her waist. “Okay, but if you decide I’m a freak after I say this, just remember that judgment-free zone comment.”

Conor smiled, sat up, and kissed her cheek. “Sounds like it’s going to be a good one.”

The longer they were together, the more glimpses Luca got of the real Conor. While there were still miles to go in their relationship, Luca was ready to put in the time if it meant he’d get to see more of who Conor really was inside, instead of the buttoned-up stoic he presented to the rest of the world.

With them, he seemed more willing to lower his guard at times. His smiles came more frequently, and the sarcastic son of a bitch had one hell of a sense of humor when he let go.

“Since we’re in the woods,” she started.

Luca grinned. “I love it already.”

Harper lightly slapped his upper arm. “I…well… How wrong would it be to admit that I’ve always gotten turned on by the idea of being chased through the woods by a stranger? Or, in this case, two strangers? Two strangers who take me captive and have their wicked way with me.”

Luca froze for a second—not because he was horrified but because it felt as if Harper and her sexy fantasies had been ripped from his brain, crafted from his own dreams.

This woman had been made for him.

A quick glance in Conor’s direction had him revising that last thought.

She’d been made just for them.

Luca was glad the sheet was covering him from the waist down, otherwise, his lovers would be treated to an eyeful of his now rock-hard cock.

“Your safe word is cheeseburger,” Luca said, his tone deeper. “Because if we’re doing this, it’s going to be legit. So let’s spell it out. I’m assuming you don’t want gentle or romantic.”

Harper shook her head. “Rough,” she whispered. “I want it rough. I want to fight back.”

“Fuck,” Conor growled. “Yeah.”

Luca rose from the bed, walking over to Harper’s overnight bag. Rifling through it, he tossed her a T-shirt and a pair of shorts. “Put those on.”

“No bra or panties?” She looked down at her limited wardrobe.

Luca gave her a dangerous grin. “Sure, I can add those to the pile…if you don’t mind us ripping them off you.”

“This is fine.” She slid off the bed to toss on the shorts and shirt. Walking to the living room, she retrieved the socks and sneakers she’d taken off last night when they’d settled in front of the fire.

He and Conor remained by the bed, neither of them dressing while she laced up her shoes, then rose from the couch.

“Now what?” She was suddenly looking equal parts excited and nervous.

“Now,” Luca said, his arms crossed against his bare chest, his erection bobbing against his stomach. “You run.”

“Run?” Her gaze traveled to the front door of the cabin.

Conor picked up his smartwatch, strapping it onto his wrist. “We’ll give you a five-minute head start.”

Harper didn’t move until Luca barked, “Run!” Loudly.
