Chapter 1
The bass from the Funktion-One sound system pulsed through Selena’s chest, a primal rhythm that seemed to sync with her heartbeat. She closed her eyes for a moment, letting the gummy’s warmth spread through her limbs like honey poured over sun-heated skin. When she opened them again, the strobe lights caught the sweat on her collarbone, making her brown skin shimmer under the neon haze.
Marcus watched her from the bar, a knowing smile playing at the corner of his lips. He’d been waiting for this—waiting for her to let go of that Catholic-schoolgirl hesitation she carried like a shield. Six months had passed since their first attempt, and he still remembered the tight line of her jaw afterward, the way she’d said *“it was fine”* in that voice that meant anything but.
Tonight was different. He could see it in the way she moved.
The Dutch stranger had appeared an hour ago—tall, white-blond hair cropped close on the sides, shoulders that looked carved from canal stone. He’d approached Selena while Marcus was getting drinks, and instead of retreating into her usual shell, she’d leaned in. By the time Marcus returned, she was laughing at something in the man’s ear, her hand resting on his forearm.
Now she was dancing between them, her hips tracing figure-eights that made the black dress ride higher on her thighs. The stranger—Finn, his name was Finn—moved behind her without touching, letting the heat of his body do all the work. Marcus watched his wife’s head fall back, her dark hair cascading down, and he felt his pulse surge with something between jealousy and raw hunger.
“She’s something else,” Finn said, loud enough for Marcus to hear over the music.
“She has no idea,” Marcus replied.
Selena turned then, her eyes finding Marcus’s. She bit her lower lip—that shy gesture he knew so well—but behind it burned something darker, something greedy. She crossed to him, her fingers curling into the front of his shirt.
“I want him to come back with us.”
The words were barely a whisper, but they hit Marcus like a line of ketamine. He glanced at Finn, who was watching them with a cool, patient smile.
“You sure?” Marcus asked, his thumb tracing her cheekbone.
Selena nodded. Her tongue wet her lips, and she stood on her toes to press her mouth to his ear. “I want you to watch what you do to me.”
Chapter 2
The hotel room smelled of oud and fresh linen. Selena lay face-down on the king bed, the sheets cool against her flushed skin. She’d stripped down to nothing, and the vulnerability of it made her feel electric—like standing too close to the edge of a cliff.
Four hands met her back.
Marcus started at her shoulders, his touch familiar and grounding. His thumbs found the knots at the base of her neck, pressing until she sighed into the mattress. Finn took the cue,
Chapter 3
Finn took the cue without a word, his large hands sliding down Selena’s spine until his thumbs pressed into the dimples just above her ass. Marcus watched from above, his fingers still working the tension from her shoulders, but his eyes—dark with hunger—tracked every inch of Finn’s progress. Selena’s breath hitched, her hips instinctively tilting up as Finn’s palms spread over her cheeks, kneading with a pressure that made her toes curl.
“Relax, schatje,” Finn murmured, his Dutch accent turning the endearment into a purr. “Let your body tell us what it wants.”
She couldn’t help the moan that escaped, muffled against the sheets. Her thighs parted without her permission, and she felt the cool air against the slick heat between her legs. Finn’s fingers traced the curve of her inner thigh, inching closer to where she ached most. “Marcus, she’s dripping already. Does she always get this wet so fast?”
Marcus’s voice was low, reverent. “Only when I’m right. When I pick right.”
Selena lifted her head just enough to meet her husband’s gaze. “Please,” she whispered, “I want to feel him. I want to feel what you chose for me.”
Finn chuckled, the sound dark and approving. He hooked his fingers under the elastic of his briefs and freed his cock, thick and heavy, the head already beaded with pre-semen. He guided her hand back until her fingers curled around him, and Selena let out a sharp cry at the sheer girth. “Oh god, Marcus, he’s so thick.”
“I know, baby. I know.” Marcus was stroking himself through his jeans, his breathing unsteady. “Tell me what you want.”
She didn’t hesitate. “I want him inside me. I want you to watch him fuck me.”
Finn didn’t wait for a second invitation. He pulled her onto all fours, the head of his cock nudging against her entrance. “Then look at your husband, Selena. Don’t close your eyes.”
She locked eyes with Marcus as Finn pushed in—one slow, relentless press that stretched her open. The sound she made was nothing like the shy whimpers of their first threesome; it was a raw, guttural moan that vibrated through the room. Marcus’s breath caught as Finn began to move, his hips slamming into her with a rhythm that was pure dominance.
Selena’s mouth found Marcus’s cock a heartbeat later, taking him deep as Finn drove into her from behind. She sucked him with an urgency that bordered on desperate, her tongue tracing every ridge while her body rocked with each powerful stroke. “She’s taking you so deep, Marcus. Listen to her sing.” Finn’s words were a growl, and he leaned over her back, one hand gripping her hip, the other tangling in her hair to hold her steady. “You’re a greedy thing, aren’t you? So eager to be filled by both of us.”
She couldn’t answer—not with Marcus’s cock stretching her lips—but the garbled whimper was enough. The pressure built in her core, coiling tighter with every plunge of Finn’s cock hitting a spot that made stars burst behind her eyes. Marcus’s hips stuttered; he’d never seen her like this, never heard these animal sounds tearing from her throat. “That’s it, Selena. Let go. Give me everything.”
Finn angled his next thrust deliberately, and she shattered. A hot rush flooded from her, soaking his cock and the sheets as a scream ripped through her, her mouth still full of Marcus’s flesh. Her whole body convulsed, inner muscles clamping down so hard that Finn groaned and pulled out, his own need still pulsing but held back as he watched her ride the wave. Marcus followed an instant later, his release spilling onto her tongue and chin with a choked curse.
Finn gently disengaged, leaving Selena trembling on all fours, gasping for air. Marcus was there in a moment, gathering her into his arms, flipping her onto her back and covering her body with his. “I’m here, baby. I’ve got you.” His cock, still half-hard, found her soaked entrance and slid home with a soft, wet sound. She clung to him, her fingers digging into his back.
“That was... Marcus, that was...” She couldn’t finish, but her legs wrapped around him, pulling him deeper.
“I know,” he breathed against her mouth, moving slowly now, each stroke a promise. “You were incredible. I’ve never been more turned on in my life.”
Her hips rolled to meet his, the slick ease of her well-used pussy making every push divine. “I want you to come inside me, Marcus. I want to feel us together.”
He kissed her deeply, tasting the salt of himself and the sweetness that was purely her. A few more thrusts—gentle, profound—and his climax broke, his seed spilling into her as she cried out again, a smaller but no less intense orgasm gripping her muscles around him. They stayed locked together, foreheads touching, ragged breaths mingling.
Finn had pulled on his briefs and was holding out a glass of water from the minibar, a genuine smile on his face. “You two are something special. I’d like to see you again before you leave Amsterdam, if that’s on the table.”
Selena glanced at Marcus, who nodded, a grin spreading across his freckled face. “We’ve got two more days. Tomorrow night?”
Finn nodded and quietly stepped out, leaving them wrapped in the afterglow. Selena tucked herself against Marcus’s side, her body still humming. “Happy birthday,” she whispered. “That was the best gift I’ve ever given.”
He pressed a kiss to her damp hair. “And it’s just the beginning. We found something tonight, didn’t we?”
She looked up at him, her dark eyes soft but shining with a new confidence. “Yeah. We really did.”
