I only have one request… All three of us to be together… right now.
Luke Longfellow is a brilliant student at the University of New York, who recently graduated in flying colors. He comes from a religious family, and his parents expect him to get married to Annette, daughter of a local deacon at their church. Luke, on the other hand, has a secret; he’s bi-sexual and enjoys the company of both men and women.
During his time at the university, he has been exposed to this fact and has had the chance to explore himself and learns he can no longer go back to being heterosexual. A week into the wedding, Luke’s friends take him on vacation to Las Vegas for their version of a bachelor’s party. There, he meets Matt. A handsome hazel-eyed stranger/ Luke reveals that he is basically being forced into a marriage that will make him miserable.
He lets on that he does not have amorous for Annette, who he sees more as his sister than a lover. Luke advises Matt to break off the engagement; an advice which Matt takes. Breaking off the engagement leads to a breakdown in relations between Matt and his parents. This forces him to leave the house and head for a bisexual themed nightclub as a sign of defiance.
At the club, Luke and Matt meet again and eventually go home together. They continue seeing each other with no commitment until Luke after caught Matt with someone else just a day after they were together. Matt shows no remorse, and they eventually break up, leaving Luke to focus on his career.
After Luke becomes wildly successful in his career, he meets Susan, a client and billionaire heiress who has an interest in him. Luke and Susan start seeing each other and have a perfect relationship until Matt gets in the middle of their business.
Susan has been sent by her controlling father to set up a new business branch in the US from England. Things are going smoothly until Matt comes along and buys up parts of the land where Susan has earmarked for development on her father’s orders. Matt is willing to sell on one condition; he wants to have a drink with both Luke and Susan.
The three of them meet, and old flames are rekindled, leading Matt and Luke to have sex while Susan is passed out from alcohol. What they do not know is that she is not out cold, and she confronts Luke the next morning. Luke is surprised at her reaction. Instead of anger, she makes a request. She wants a threesome: Matt, Luke, and her. Luke agrees, and it happens. The threesome paves the way for a successful transaction and lays the foundation for the future, which could include an industrial war between Susan and her father.

Luke and Matt sat together on a sofa in the mansion. His trance-like stare was half because it was beautiful and half because he was drunk. Matt placed his hands on top of Luke’s shoulders and whispered something Luke did not hear. Although they had a prior discussion on being attracted to each other, Luke did not quite expect it when Matt reached in for a kiss. However, although it felt strange, he did not flinch, he wanted Matt’s lips on his. One kiss and he felt a volcano of emotions erupt in his pants.
Luke instantly hardened and yearned for Matt. Soon enough, they were both covered in sweat, breathing each other’s breath, and all Luke could think of was the increasing want to have Matt’s body thrusting into his. Without warning, Luke pushed Matt into the couch where they had sat a few minutes ago, and taking Matt’s already hard erection into his mouth, Luke slowly sucked on it, while Matt groaned. The response excited him, and he increased the tempo with a passion that seemed to borrow its fire from hell.
Matt dug his hands into Luke’s hair as he muttered, “fuck.” Luke smiled, he knew he was doing a good job, he could feel his balls shiver. But Luke wasn’t ready to end this, and as though Matt read his thoughts, Matt grabbed Luke’s jaw and kissed him gently. Luke could feel a smile on Matt’s lips as he helped himself to Luke’s mouth. Luke buried himself in what seemed like an unending barrage of kisses filled with fire. He was so enveloped in it, he barely heard Matt when he said, “turn around, Luke.”

5ffe4-excerpt

A wisp of a sound snatched her attention and she looked up, startled. The red fox stood just inside the circle of light cast from her fire. The source of the sound came from what it held in its jaws.

Standing, she moved toward the fox, anticipating it would run away. The fox allowed her two steps toward it, then slowly lowered its head and deposited a small animal on the ground before drifting back a few paces into the shadows.

It was a kitten of approximately two months of age, with long hair, bushy tail, ginger-colored thick fur around the head and large paws, but the rest was in shades of black and gray tiger stripes. It studied Mari with eerily intelligent heather-blue eyes. She approached the little animal and held out the back of her hand to be sniffed. In a quiet voice, she spoke to the fox. “Why do you have a kitten and why bring it here?”

A strange, almost atonal, voice came from the archeological dig. “Tha kitten is here ’cause I asked Ruadh ta bring it.”

She whirled, seeking the source of the voice.

It came again. “T’was ah good name an tha fox appreciates it.” Emerging from the shadows was the unsubstantial form of a Viking.

With wide eyes she watched… speechless.

“My greeting ta ye, Mari. Ye’re ah descendant…” The spirit chuckled, “Many times an hundreds o’ years removed, yet ye bear ah resemblance ta my beautiful Leda.”
