    Stanley sat on the edge of the pool table watching with interest  as his wife slipped into Brandy. He had never seen Doris like this, a war of pure lust against keeping her martial vows. When he had gave her the nudge she needed so badly to take the plunge and join the carnal delights below, it gave him a thrill and his aura glowed even brighter for a moment.

    The thought energy in the room was intense and Stanley had to focus to sense individual thoughts from the three living beings in the room. He looked at Mercer his aura was glowing white with hues of red emanating from his waist area and flickering up his back, like flames to the pleasure center of his mind.

    Unable to resist Stanley moves into Mercer's conscious……………… it was intoxicating the pure gratification Mercer was feeling. Stanley jumped out stunned and watched the fellatio Brandy was preforming with Doris's help he reminded himself. He fought off the urge to join Mercer again and looked at Bear.

    Bear's aura was glowing white with sparks of intense red spreading out all over like lightning bolts. Stanley merged into Bear………….. Lust, rampant, unchecked and a second feeling…………Desire almost as strong as the Lust. He jumped out and found himself perched on the rafter above.

    He looked down and could see Brandy and Doris glowing white with red and pink flames like fire embers. Stanley felt like a kid in a candy store. He would enjoy this Menage a trois  from both these virile bodies. He had always desired this. Doris was his wife and their sex life had been exciting. She was open to new things but neither had actually considered introducing a third into their lovemaking.  They had fantasied and enjoyed role play of course. It was a different world and era back then, and he had no regrets, he mused. but now, things were different and both could explore this threesome

    Stanley lit one of his phantom cigars and smiled as the room filled with clouds of jasmine.

    We get up, James agile & springy, me more than a little gingerly and that's no pun. I admire my skin in the full-length mirror…
    I have red flecks all over and cruel-looking weals all up my thighs, some are turning purple already.
    I smile and twist back & forth, my reverie is interrupted by a sharp slap to my bruised butt!
    “Stop admiring yourself, you brazen hussy!” James slides his arm around me and gives me a big hug, squashing my sore nipples and making me squeal. His eyes sparkle and he kisses me softly
    “Ready to head back to the AB&G? I need to get the BBQ going for your ribs you promised everyone.”
    I slowly pull my clothes back on, wincing at almost everything, then we collect the bags of ribs, boxes of cookies and the tin of my “special” brownies from my car trunk and head back up the long passage back to the pool room & the bar. The soles of my feet seem to be the only bits of me that aren't throbbing, maybe I'll have a brownie to make me feel better.

    I am lying on my back on the bar table, head hanging as Mercer78 pumps my mouth with his hard cock. It tastes delicious. I can’t get enough.

    Jasmine scent hangs heavy over us and seems to energise the sexual heat generated in both of us. I suck on Mercer’s full length as he bends to grope my tits with one hand, and thumbing my clit with the other.

    The crudity of my nude upturned frog like position turns him on. He likes being the centre of my attention and likes that I am displayed for Bear.
    My hands are holding my ankles, knees spread wide apart, wet pussy facing Bear.  He pushes in my mouth, that little bit deeper, that little bit faster.

    He watches his hands obscenely touching and groping as I moan and groan.

    I am lost in the sensations of touch and smell and then I feel a refreshing iciness on the top of my body and it sinks down, right to my spine and to the table I am lying on. 

    I am fighting for breath, for space and the iciness mirrors my body position before melting and a warming heat begins to rise.

    I am squashed, vying for space and suddenly realise, I am not alone, an entity is sharing my body, sharing in the sensations and moans of earthly sex.

    We feel each other’s thoughts but she is stronger than me. I sense years of pent up frustrations and the joy that she is now inside me, feeling and responding to Mercer’s touch. My body energises tenfold, reacts and responds with gusto. The secretions from my pussy rush and dribble down my furrow and crevices to pool on the table below. My breasts swell, my pussy and clitoris engorge for mating invite.

    I salivate on Mercer’s cock, sucking him, relishing his hardened member. He groans, sensing the new vigour and worship of a wanton cock sucking whore.

    The pheromones emitted radiate from my body, engulfing Mercer and floating around Bear, sending out silent signals to the potent males of a willing female in heat for mating.

    They smell and rejoice as their bodies react and swell, the inner beasts rising in need to mate and seed. Their chests expand and cocks pulsate to strut their power and virility. 

    I feel their power and thrills and anticipation tingle throughout me as Doris picks up on it too and then, we hear a triumphant roar.  Bear is up out of his throne! His bindings gone!

    Mercer grins at him and places a hand on each of my knees, spreading them wide for Bear. Mercer thrusts deep into my throat. My nose is buried into his balls, my pussy drenched and ready…

    Brandy obeys my command without hesitation gripping her ankles tightly as I fuck, deep into her mouth.  I feel her salivate and my cock throbs and secretes little bubbles of pleasure.

    “What’s come over me? This isn’t how I usually behave!?”  I think to myself and although I feel pangs of guilt, it is damn exciting to give such free reign to my most carnal desires. A new form of animal passion has awoken inside me!  I sense an alien presence in my mind and body pushing me to do more, encouraging my hidden desires.  It is exhilarating!
    Even more baffling, Brandy is allowing this raw, hot moment, enjoying it even.  I’ve never seen this side of her.  “Is this what’s she’s like with Bear?”  I wonder.

    I begin to grope her incredible breasts as I fuck her mouth. The sound of this wanton sex goddesses gulps and gasps turning me on all the more. 
    I smile to myself as I see her hand move towards her clit. “mmm you love it, you little minx!”  I think to myself, a wry smile on my face I begin to thrust a little faster.

    It’s at this point I hear a triumphant roar. Bear is loose and coming our way but he doesn’t look upset with us, quite the contrary he’s smiling. 
    We both lock eyes for a moment, both reading the lusty desire in each other.  Then we look at our sexually charged prey on the table….

    Bear stretches and rises from his throne, lose, raw and with a magnificent erection.

    He sees Mercer smiling and opening my knees for him in invite and he nods in male appreciation and smiles back before locking on to the glistening, swollen and enticing lips of my sex.  He sees my excitement leaking onto the table and smells my arousal.

    He moves in and places a hand on my lower tummy and pushes two fingers  straight inside my wet vaginal cavity. He pumps me slow and I groan, at his intrusion, over Mercers’s cock still in my mouth.

    I feel his fingers stretching and exploring inside of me. He moves his other hand up to my breasts, rubbng and squeezing both orbs, letting me know he is there and nothing is sacred. I am on the table for him and for Mercer now.

    He leans forward and growls near my chin, pushing his fingers into my body as far as they can go. “Brandy, you are mine and Mercers now” 

    My heart accelerates and I thrust on his fingers as he stills them.  “That’s it, fuck my fingers Brandy,“  he encourages. “ I want you teetering on that edge”  He uses the heel of his hand to grind my clitoris.

    I am so sensitive and whimper on Mercer’s cock.  Mercer moves his hands to cradle and control my head, and continues to slow fuck my mouth, letting Bear take over my lower body. It turns him on watching Bear play with me as my tongue stimulates his own throbbing cock. Bear’s hands rub and thumb my nipples, his hand grinds my crotch.

    Mercer can tell, this is not about gentle seduction. He realises that this is pure unadulterated lust and sex. Bear is demanding my compliance, his carnal knowledge ensures obedience and Mercer watches enthralled, fucking my mouth that little bit harder, excited by the prospect. My hands reach for his hips, squeezing encouragement.

    Bear speaks again by my chin, but this time directed at Doris, “Are you in there? Can you feel me in your pussy? Does it excite you that you have my attention now?” He nibbles my outstretched neck.
    My body writhes and whimpers in answer and Bear chuckles softly against my neck, “I knew you couldn’t resist.”

    He moves down my body, sucking and kissing my breasts, pulling on my nipples and then finding that central line to my belly button and down to my excited pussy. He kisses my thin trimmed pubic hairline and then licks up and down my furrow as his hands spread my inner thighs. I writhe and grind into his face.

    Mercer cups my breasts and circles them seductively. His cock still fucking my head as he watches the action.

    Stanley watches, sitting, legs apart, on the pool table beside himself in excitement. He sees Mercer fucking Doris’s head and feeling her beautiful tits. He sees Bear’s head buried in his wife’s pussy holding her bent legs open.

    His hand moves to his phantom cock and he strokes himself. He fantasises which man he should enter first to experience touching his wife again but… his naughty side is also intrigued. He wants to play with me too, to enjoy the naughty pleasures, his wife is experiencing with these two devilish men.

    hell yes fuck those fingers and suck that cock, Mrs Grill!”

    Stanley could not believe he had just said that. In his day gentlemen never spoke like that, but this was indeed a different time. He looked at Brandy and could see his wife Doris inside taking control more and more. Bears whispers caught his attention. Was the man addressing Doris?

    Stanley melded into Bears conscious, ready this time, Stanley remained passive and felt Bears desire,strong with purpose. Feeling his thoughts it became evident that Bear Knew Doris was in Brandy’s conscious and the man wanted his wife as much as he wanted Brandy. Through Bears senses he felt his fingers working Brandy's slick wet pussy. Feeling Doris or Brandy, maybe both, clenching and releasing on Bears fingers.

    Stanley glances at Mercer. The man lost in his own desire somehow keeping his composure as Brandy and Doris continue with their brazen fellatio. His wife had used the word amazing to describe what was happening. Stanley thought the word an understatement. These living beings had no regrets or second thoughts and were living in the moment, and fulfilling their wildest needs and desires.

    Stanley had wanted to remain Passive and enjoy this sexual frenzy from both of these men's  bodies but his will was eroding fast. Soon he would assert his will onto the men in this room.

    Bear’s  brain was full of carnal thoughts that Stanley could not even imagine. And very soon he would experience them for himself.

    I feel my passion rising.  Brandybee’s fellatio skills are incredible but at the same time I can’t take my eyes off of how Bear is skilfully working her wanton sex with one hand and cupping a breast with the other.  She grinds into both of us, writhing and grinding on the  table.
    The vibration of Brandy’s moans of pleasure adding to my own sensation as she sucks and gulps on my rock hard manhood. 

    “Oh my god this too good” I mutter out loud in between animal grunts. This raises another wicked smile from Bear who clearly has an agenda he hasn’t let me in on.

    “What will he do next?”  I muse, quite excited at the prospect. 

    As this thought crosses my mind I get the feeling that someone is watching us. The scent of jasmine is now ever more pungent in the air and Brandy seems different somehow, more eager and more responsive. 

    These thoughts soon drift away as I feel Brandy reach up and start to lightly tickle my balls almost immediately finding my sweet spot.

    The combined sensations almost completely overwhelm me beyond the capacity for coherent thought.  “Oohh yeah, I never want this night to end,” I moan as I watch Bear’s head bob between her widened thighs, a very hot and erotic sight.

    Bear buries his head into our succulent pussy, as his hands hold our legs apart. He is a demanding man and he will not allow any access to be denied him.

    If he senses any kind of reluctance, he is quite capable of taking what he wants through physical and verbal persuasion. He is a Master at holding the female in the Plateau phase prior to orgasm, causing her to writhe and beg till she can take no more. It is a fine balance between the peak of sexual excitement and the building contempt of frustration, both of which he can use at a whim very successfully.
    And this is his very intention!

    His tongue laps around our swollen labia and clitoris, drawing them into his mouth and sucking the sensitive skin.
    I sense Doris is excited inside my body and gasps in pleasure as she feels the first touches of his wicked tongue on her muff,  my muff, our muff. And Mercers on our tits and mouth.

    One earthly body, but two souls nestling there, feeling each other’s thoughts and hidden desires.

    Bear pulls away slightly, letting Doris and I feel the stretch of our intimate lips, before releasing them with a gentle pop. He repeats and buries his head again, drinking the female juices produced by his stimulation. His fingers gently massage the skin and then he inserts fingers into our vagina, dipping into our wet heat and coating his fingers, till they are soppingly glazed.

    He rims our vagina and anal entrances as he circles our clitoris with his tongue. Then he invades both intimate orifices.
    As he sucks and circles, his fingers thrust in and out.  I groan in pleasure.

    I moan on Mercer’s cock. His length in my mouth is set at a steady rhythm. I smell his need and heady intoxication. We suck on him hungrily, drawing pre cum into our mouth. His uses one hand to hold our head and the other to grope our tits and squeeze our nipples. I cup his balls and massage him.

    He too is a Master at seduction, in a quieter way than Bear, but still potent in building a girl’s desire. 

    Both men work expertly together until Doris and I are heated and frenzied, writhing and needing more as was surely their goal. They surf us expertly, easing up on the teasing so we do not tip over that edge into orgasm until they are ready. 

    We feel the joy, then the frustration, then the joy again as we seesaw in our sexual haze of need and want. Soon, we are both begging for satisfaction.

    Then the stimulation becomes stronger and this time continues, I begin to breathe deeply.

    Both men recognise the signs but this time allow it to run its course. We gasp, partly in relief, partly in rapture. Our body spirals up to grasp the euphoric orgasm that explodes and racks our body, moaning along the way.

    Because of the prolonged peaking, the physical sensations are much greater and more pleasurable and much, much longer, than if the orgasm were experienced the more routine way.

    Simultaneously at our release, Bear stands and pushes his cock right into our pussy depths to feel our heady contractions grip and un-grip on his cock. Our pussy dances in delight, spasm after spasm praising his hard length.

    Mercer withdraws and places his cock into my sensitive cleavage. He pushes our tits together to encase him and proceeds to fuck them. He enjoys my gasps and warm breath on his inner thighs as I pant and whimper in our ecstasy.

    Bear lets us ride our pleasure and as he feels it begin to weaken, he teases my clit with his thumb, and Mercer massages my breasts. Their intention is for it to go on and on, one of the advantages of edging and controlling the orgasm.

    It ripples and clenches again on his cock, over and over, gathering in strength and intensity. A sheen of sweat greases my body as Bear and Mercer enjoy my gleeful elation, fitting in my sea of  prolonged joy.

    Relentlessly, they work us both into an exhausted compliance.

    Bear smiles as he looks at my limp but happy form. Chest heaving for oxygen.

    Mercer lies on the floor, his throbbing erection standing tall. 

    Bear pulls me up from the table and as he helps me to straggle him, he whispers  “Ride him baby” 

    I lower on to Mercer, my legs still shaking from my extended orgasm. Mercer impales me and feels the jumpy aftershocks inside my pussy.  I whimper as I am still quite sensitive.

    Bear pushes me forward so my tities hang inches from his face. Mercer suckles me softly.

    Bear runs his hand down my spine, my round bottom, into the valley and thumbs my anus. He places his cock at my anal entrance teasing me with his crown. His precum and my orgasmic juices smear around my special rosette and then he pushes in, covering me with his body.  I feel him enter and the two cocks stretch and fill my body in the double penetration. I am pinned by their buried, pulsing cocks.

    “You are our pleasure now” he whispers to me, “And that includes you Doris”

    Mercer nibbles on my breasts and says quietly, “That’s right. Our turn now baby”

    Bear grips my neck holding my forehead on the floor, next to Mercer.  Mercer grips my hips and bends his knees in readiness for holding me in place and to help guide the pace on him underneath.

    Then both guys fuck, steady at first to get their rhythm and to wield their dominance over Doris and I.

    We are but a vessel for their desires and never have we been so excited by such big cocks, masterful behaviour and obscene, naughty whisperings.
    I feel Doris's elation  at  being used by two men at the same time.  I know she feels mine too, along with the want to please both guys as they have pleasured me,  and to make them as weak limbed as me in that moment.

    Entering the Icehouse, I head down to the guest room and insert the key. Unlocking the door, I step inside and shut it behind me. Slipping into the bathroom, I quickly change outfits and freshen up when I hear the door open and can hear James breathing behind me. Turning around, I show him the outfit and ask him what he thinks with a big smile.

    Brandybee eases on to my eager member. I feel she is still quivering from her orgasm, just a few short moments ago, but Bear is there to steady and encourage her.

    I gasp as her vagina envelopes me, still twitching and slightly increasing my own sensations. I feel her channel flutter along my cock. It is delightful.

    Bear is not done. He pushes her down so for a moment we are face to face and as I gaze into her beautiful eyes, I see something shadow across her eyes, as if glimpsing two beautiful, wanton, sex goddesses in one. The thought of it fuels my fire even further. I gently grab her breasts and nuzzle her nipples. 

    My eyes are closed in pleasure. I feel Brandy tighten on me even further.  I cannot see him but I know and sense what Bear is doing and I bend my knees to create support.

    Brandy and the unknown entity are sandwiched between myself and Bear completely at our mercy.  I have the pleasure of their wanton wet sex while Bear enjoys the tighter forbidden back passage. I feel him fill her, hear her grunts as he invades her and feel the pressure on my cock at the double penetration. It is quite exquisite.

    We thrust together in sync, slow at first so I can match Bear’s rhythm, then we slowly pick up speed.
    Brandybee gasps and moans with each thrust. Her eyes are closed lost in the overwhelming sensations, just as am I. 

    I look past Brandybee for a second to give Bear a nod of encouragement. He just smiles that wicked smile once again, pins her by the neck to hold her steady and tilting her bottom upwards. Then we both proceed to pound the delightful woman, spearing her by our lustful cocks.  I shut my eyes again.

    She is tight and compliant. Her wet heat drenching my cock and balls, her warm, peaked tits sliding along my chest. I feel her warm breath and moans on my shoulder.  I move her hand to tease her own clitoris. She follows my silent instructions and begins to masturbate. It heightens my lust as I hold her hips, guiding her to our pace.

    We fuck her hard and fast, using her for our pleasure. We let our lust take over, ramming her, taking her.
    Our bodies, pant and grunt and moan, breaking out in a film of sweat that flushes and sheens on our skin.

    I groan in pleasure. This must be one of the hottest fucks I have ever experienced.

    Seeing James walks around me checking me up and down, I could feel that start of tingling between my legs. Then he says that we have a lot of work to do and I frown thinking he wasn't pleased.

    Hearing his instructions, I stand up straight. Sliding my hands up my thighs, over the ties, and back over my butt before raising them up and clasping my elbows behind my back. Hearing his good girl, I smile and glance up under my eyelashes to see his smile. He moves behind me and moves my hair away to kiss my neck softly.

    When he asks if i willingly offer myself to him, I gently grab his waist and pulls him close rubbing softly against him before glancing back at him over my shoulder with a smirk on my face and say “Maaaayyyyybe.”

    James forces my hands back to the previous position before reaching up and untying the string behind my back. He tells me not to move and I briefly ponder whether or not I should move. Deciding to hold still, I figured it best not to push it too far this time around.

    James had walked over to the wall and selected a crop with a red heart. He comes back to me and trace the outside of my calf with it. He asks again if I give myself freely to him. I wait as he traces the heart up my thigh.

    “I'm waiting Princess. You must give me an answer.” I smile at him but continue to wait to see what he would do. All the while I can feel the light touches starting to send it all the way down to my clit. The ache begins to build as the juices start to slide out.

    The heart traces up over my stomach and up to to the bikini. Biting my lip softly, I fight to restrain myself still and not arch into the touch. My eyes soften and start showing the lust that is growing within me.

    James flicks his wrist softly and taps lightly on my breast through the material. I moan softly as he starts flicking the heart over and over on my breasts. They are so soft that it feels like butterflies kissing me. My pussy starts clenching feeling every tap while the juices keep flowing out and dampening the panties.

    Both virile men pound into our body, filling us to almost breaking point. The double penetration encases Mercers cock in our tight quivering vagina and Bear’s in an even tighter anal channel.

    Their hard cocks push in mercilessly, stretching both passageways. They slide right up to the hilt. I gasp in my pinned state.

    Mercer hits and pokes at my cervix before sliding back, covered in fresh female secretions.
    Simultaneously Bear uses the same rhythm and pushes deep into our bowels greasing the way with his lubricated cock, forcing our body to accept his possession before withdrawing. They feel each other’s hardened poles through the small wall of separation.

    Then they ram in again and again in their lustful frenzy.  Both men breaking out in an excited sweat, breathing hard, half closing their eyes.

    It’s uncomfortable at first for me, but my body soon gets used to their sawing thick cocks. My fingers circle my clitoris. I feel the exhilaration of pleasing two men at the same time and the exuberance of their strong performance. 

    My body flushes as I pant for breath. Eventually, I feel Bear’s grip tighten on my neck and shoulder and Mercer’s fingers dig into my hips. Both men are close to fulfilment, I could sense it and so could Doris.

    Our spirits soar and our excitement builds as we feel both men give one last strong thrust and stiffen and then roar in orgasm. They ejaculate within seconds of each other, shooting into both channels and flooding our body with their white creamy seed.

    I feel my joy and Doris’s euphoria in that moment and then the rush of heat blasting into both channels.

    We all moan and whimper holding each other as both men ride their ecstasy, their cocks deeply embedded in my body.

    As they calm, Bear disengages and pulls my hair so I am sitting back on Mercer still buried inside me.  He directs my head to his cock to lick him clean, letting my expert tongue taste and suckle his length, encouraging me to circle my hips on Mercer.

    He enjoys my soft tongue on his sensitive length and bell end, and then pushes his whole rod in my hot, wet, mouth. He circles his hips and then holds my head, nose pressed to his pubic hair.

    I smell his unique familiar scent, pubic hair tickling my nostrils and upper lip. I suckle him softly, tasting our union and his semen, washing him in my saliva. He enjoys the sensations and after a short while, withdraws while I finish cleaning him.  He then lowers to me and kisses me tenderly.

    “Did it live up?” He says softly, looking into my exhausted eyes, already knowing my positive answer. I smile fondly at him and he strokes my hair affectionately.
    “I have to go,” he whispers and I nod my head.

    He grins at Mercer and as he leaves, says “Look after her.” He goes to the secret passage leading to his dungeon.

    I watch him leave, admiring his fine tight ass and lean down to Mercer and snog him.

    Mercer lifts my hips to uncouple and cups my head kissing me back deeply. He senses my exhaustion.

    “Time for bed for you” He whispers. He stands, picks me up in his arms and follows Bear, into the secret passage, along the corridor, to tuck me into my  four poster dungeon bed.  And in completing his tender task, he leaves quietly.

    Our 3 way rhythm is now reaching fever pitch all of us are sweating moaning and gasping for breath with each synchronised thrust Brandy’s sex is gripping my member harder and harder.

    I feel my release approaching quickly then before I know it I'm exploding inside her letting out a roar of satisfaction as I do that is echoed almost immediately by Bear.  I'm barely aware of the next few seconds the orgasm was so intense. 
    Once I manage to focus again I look up to see Bear and Brandy kissing he stops looks at me we share a knowing smile and he whispers to me “look after her”.  With that he is gone with Brandy’s following until he is out of sight then turns and kisses me.

    I lift Brandy up gently as we separate out bodies taking special care to support her “you must be exhausted I think to myself”. 
    “Time for bed you” I whisper gently to her as I very gingerly take her in my arms and carry her down the passage we’d seen Bear leave down.
    Once inside I find the most magnificent four poster I look down at my precious  cargo smile and gently lay her down in the bed and pull the covers over and tuck her in gently kiss her on the forehead whispering “thank you” .

    I nod to Bear turn and leave thus concluding the intense night of my life.  I will never know how or why these wonderful things happened but feel it best not to question the strange forces at work in fact if they have consciousness I would like to thank them.
    So in the now empty car park I look up to the sky and say aloud “thank you whoever whatever you are thank you”.

    All the teasing is making my body respond. My nipples are growing harder from the gentle wacks. My pussy is throbbing and soaking the panties.

    My body shivers lightly as he trails the crop lightly against my skin making me crave for more. My hands clasping tighter to my elbows as my desire keeps rising higher and higher.

    Each time he asks the same question my heart grows more tender and giving into him. Shivering as he kisses my neck tenderly, I can't help but moan and say “yes Sir.”

    He whispers softly in my ear with his breath tantalizing my skin even more, “yes to what Sexi.”

    “Yes I give myself to you Sir”
