Branded (17 page)

She had their attention and
need.

Pinching the tips lightly, she gave
a slight tug and circled them again. A moan floated around her and
she pinched again.

From there the calculated seduction
was forgotten. She needed one of them, hopefully both, to take her
to the ground and take her, lack of condom be damned.

Desire took over and she plucked at
the tips, pinching and pulling on them until she was seconds from
slipping her hand down to her pussy and making herself
come.

Ted leaned down and nudged one of
her hands out the way. Not knowing what else to do with it, she
gripped his hair as he teased the hard-tipped nipple with his
tongue. Circling the hard nub over and over again, Ted made her
gasp when he used his back teeth to gnaw on the sensitive
flesh.

He pulled the trapped nipple away
from her breast and muttered to his brother, “Tasty
morsel.”

In that moment she knew she was a
truly wicked woman. Almost nude and open for whatever they had
planned to do with her. She knew she wouldn’t be
disappointed.

“Looks like it,” Matt said as he
leaned over to resume their lip lock. He took her moan of pleasure
then drew another when he ran a finger down the stretched and
exposed line of her throat. Every touch of theirs was seductive and
left her head spinning. Their passion encouraged hers to rise up
and act the temptress for them. Sharing the pleasure between them
was a moment of pure joy she never wanted to end.

Sakura gripped both their heads and
held on. She had no idea where they were headed, but knew she’d
enjoy the ride.

With the vast amount of body parts,
some covered and others not, she wasn’t sure who touched her where
and it didn’t matter. Right then she was cherished and wanted. One
of their fingers found her jeans-covered clit, and suddenly her
slit was pulsating wildly with need. The digit moved in a firm and
decisive circle. She was close to coming when a vibration rumbled
along her thigh and liquid heat pooled in her pussy.

She wondered about how one minute
she’d discovered more about them being together, and the next she
was a breath away from climaxing, and couldn’t think. With a gentle
kiss and a delightful twisting tug on her nipples, the tremors
built again. They ran up her leg and she came with a
scream.

While trying to catch her breath,
it came to her how Matt and Ted were her yin and yang, only they
handled her with soft yet naughty touches. Smiling over the
realization, she opened her eyes to share the news, and found
herself held tightly in Ted’s arms.

Running his hand up and down her
side, soothing her ravished nerves, he shared what had set him on a
path to break her apart.

“Your breasts were free, bouncing
with the ride, and then you pressed the loose mounds against me. I
couldn’t take it anymore. They’re delicious balls of flesh.” Ted
squeezed one firmly and leaned down to lick the trapped hard tip
poking out from between his fingers before he finished speaking. “I
couldn’t ignore them, not knowing they were basically naked with
one thin layer of clothes separating me from them. I’m weak in
their presence.”

She found nothing weak about Ted or
Matt. However, she liked the idea he found it hard to ignore her
breasts, especially since she got off on how well his teeth worked
them over. Her nipple still tingled from his supposed failing. No,
she’d take even more of how he handled them, without
question.

“Should I burn my bras?” Sakura
offered a joking solution to spread the fun even
further.

“It’s a great idea, although I
think you need to wear one when out and about the ranch. Your
breasts are a tempting sight for any red-blooded male, and we have
quite a few of them who work for us. They’re already checking you
out while you’re out there tagging with us.” Matt almost sounded
territorial and she liked hearing the tone in his words.

“But you can ditch them when we’re
inside—shoot, you can go naked if you’d like. You definitely won’t
hear us complain about seeing you walking bare around the house.”
Ted was wicked and she liked that about him. Maybe one day she’d
surprise them and do just that; otherwise, no, she wasn’t much of a
nudist.

“I think I’ll save walking around
in the nude as a surprise. You two might get tired of seeing my
curvy backside if I do it too often.” She was proud of her body and
knew they enjoyed it. There was proof poking her thigh.

“That’s impossible, sweetheart.”
Matt reached over and plucked her from his brother’s lap, and
draped her over his. The move looked effortless by his strength,
but she could feel the power radiating off his body with waves of
heat.

Feeling frisky, she unbuttoned
enough of his shirt to drop a kiss on a pec. Matt took a deep
breath and his chest swelled at the light touch. It was odd, but
she was in control of the man who lifted her as if she were a
feather. Releasing a third button, she moved his shirt to the side.
She licked the pebbled nipple and strummed the other. He groaned
and tightened his hold around her back.

Tilting her head to the side, she
took his tender flesh between her front teeth. Worrying the trapped
nipple, she looked up and found his eyes glued to where they were
connected. There was fire burning in his eyes and she wondered how
far she could push him before it raged out of control.

Sakura trailed her thumb from his
other nipple down to his bellybutton and started to tease beneath
the waistband of his jeans. The belt was practical, but it made it
difficult to take her seduction any further. She settled on running
her fingers over the jean covered hard-on. She wanted to sit on
him, take him in her pussy, and ride him to climax.

“Play time is over, you two. We
need to get back. The HVAC contractor is at the ranch. He has the
special filter you requested and the other parts as well. He says
he’s ready to finish installing. Saki, he suggested having you
specifically on site when he does the final testing of the
system.”

Disappointed, she looked over at
Ted to suggest a slight delay, only he was putting his mobile back
in his pocket. Finally she knew where the rumble along her leg came
from.

“It was your phone pushing my
climax to the edge!”

“What?” Ted queried as he gathered
Star’s reins, which he’d wrapped around his ankle. Matt finished
buttoning her blouse and attempted to tuck it into her jeans, then
settled her back on her saddle.

“The urgency of my climax surprised
me and I couldn’t figure out why. Well, I remember these shudders
rushing from my thigh directly to my pussy. They must have been
Ted’s phone vibrating.” Sakura put her feet in the stirrups and was
pleased to have figured out the mystery, sort of. Actually, she was
looking and had found a diversion. She needed to somehow ignore her
disappointment at being denied further play.

There was plenty of time for them
to be together, particularly when there were condoms
handy.

Over the last seven weeks of work,
the project to get the Big W Ranch in line with the Japanese
government’s tracking requirements to approve import of their beef
was finished.

They had close to a hundred and
fifty calves tagged, and all newborns from this point on would join
the program. An electronic pseudo-passport would be digitally
created for each animal and follow every aspect of their life on
the ranch. It was time consuming, but worth it.

Each calf had been tagged in both
ears. It was a just-in-case scenario if one was ever lost. Under an
individual identification code, everything from who its parents
were, the color of its coat, unusual markings if any, what it was
fed, how illnesses were treated, and much more would be
noted.

The program was one she’d created,
and each time she installed it she tweaked it to fit individual
operations. She was proud to see how well the program worked. The
Big W was her first installation outside of Japan and she
considered it a success.

Sakura had been content to work in
her family’s beef supply business, but nothing else. In order to
survive, she’d found an area interesting to her and stuck with it.
After much hard work, she’d built a program the Japanese government
could approve. She’d actually received their official stamp of
approval.

What she ultimately created was a
system importers could use which would help them adhere to Japan’s
new tough beef regulations instead of waiting until they landed
only to be rejected.

Coming to Montana had been one of
many firsts. She knew it would’ve been more difficult without Ted
and Matt to help keep her grounded. Together, they’d worked through
setbacks, technical glitches, and celebrated the positive feedback
and successes.

The Big W project had become a
group effort the day they’d all stood in a field with some of the
other cowboys and brainstormed a solution for calves with
subjective coloring. It had been exciting—no two days were alike.
She liked how they were a team, professionally as well as
personally. It was the latter relationship she wanted to settle
once and for all.

The way her fingers danced across
the table showed her nerves. She’d called her father to give them
the good news. Besides the good, there was the complicated. It was
time to update them on her other plans as well, and that was not
going to be easy.

“Yes, Papa, I am pleased with how
well Molly and I implemented the program in a new to us
environment. There were a few challenges that could only happen
under small ranch conditions that I’ve noted in my report. I’ll
finish it in the next couple of days and email it to you.” Sakura
was glad the conversation was going well, although she expected it
to change with the news she still had to pass over.

If only she knew how to lie, it
would definitely make things easier. However, not telling the truth
would never sit well with her and besides, it was her life’s path
she wanted to share with them.

“You sound pleased with your
efforts and you should be. Your mother and I are proud of your
accomplishments. Have you thought anymore about setting up a
consultancy business? The software program is copyrighted and
equipment patented by Nakamura Enterprises, but it’s all in your
name and yours to do with as you want.”

“Thank you, Papa. It is quite an
honor you’ve given me.” She was surprised he’d included her name on
the official paperwork. It would’ve been more like him to leave it
all Nakamura.

“We can easily expand the
department staffing levels and put more money into promoting the
program. What do you think about us putting a team together to
attend conferences across America? It would be a good platform
where we could spread the word about how best to ensure clear
import channels into Japan.”

“Actually I have, but I was
thinking it would work better to open an office here in Montana.
Canada is another market where we could do some work. Bozeman, the
nearest big city which is within a half-hour drive, is close to the
Canadian border as well as within the majority of U.S. ranch belt.
It also has an airport with good links to the rest of the country.”
She tried to point out the benefits of staying for business
purposes, but none of that mattered.

Matt and Ted were here and
therefore where she wanted to be, consultancy firm or
not.

“Mmmm,” he murmured, and said
nothing more. She hoped he was thinking it through rather than
hearing more of what she wasn’t saying.

The silence was driving her crazy.
She was on the verge of bursting out with the truth making her
heart sing. She was thrilled the project had gone well and was
excited to take the next step, but it was the two men she would
meet up with later who made her happy.

“I’ve been taking notes as we
worked and have a plan worked out, which Matt and Ted—”

“Ted? Matt mentioned there was a
brother back at the ranch who was the more hands on to his business
knowledge. Is he pleased with how the project has gone?”

“Yes, Papa, yes he is.” She hemmed
and hawed to stall for a moment in taking the conversation to the
next level. It was going to be difficult and she could delay things
further, but for her peace of mind and the future, she had to tell
him. “There’s something else I have to tell you and, well, please
hear me out before you say anything.”

Sakura waited a few seconds at most
for him to agree, but it was all she could manage.

“I’m also staying in Montana
because I’m in love and I believe loved in return,” she said in one
breath. She was halfway through and he jumped in.

“Is it Matt Wilson?”

“Yes, but—” Before she could tell
him about Ted, he gave his approval of sorts.

“I liked him from the moment I met
him. He’s a good man, although I would have preferred if he’d come
to me to discuss the change in your relationship.” Her father was
forward thinking when it came to business, but not when it came to
male/female relationships or family structure.

It was her life and choice, and her
father had to be told. The conversation had to come from her
heart.
