MMF BISEXUAL ROMANCE: Phoenix Running (21 page)

C
ee-Cee decided
it was best to let them do what they needed to do to reconnect. This wasn’t about her. But she wanted to watch. She took a seat, crossed her legs and pulled her bath towel tighter around her damp, naked body.

Phoenix reclined on the sofa with his head on the armrest as Ashley glided his lips down his chest and torso to close his sensual mouth around Phoenix’s swollen shaft. She licked her lips as he slowly bobbed his head. Phoenix let out a moan and opened his legs wider, unable to keep from caressing the back of Ashley’s head.

He guided Ashley’s mouth back to his and they tangled tongues in an erotic kiss before Phoenix turned the tables and brought his mouth down to Ashley’s engorged penis. Cee-Cee squeezed her legs tighter and watched Phoenix’s mouth turn Ashley’s cock glossy. She watched his throat work as he sucked and listened to the way he moaned. He was totally lost in sensation; there could be twenty women watching and he wouldn’t notice.

Ashley whispered his name. Her clit throbbed to experience the same pleasure. Phoenix clutched his own cock and masturbated as he pleasured his lover. Ashley reached out to help him with the job, stroking Phoenix’s shaft as he cried out in bliss. There was so much pleasure in the right kiss, the right touch.

Days of holding back, waiting for moments like this had built up. Phoenix pulled a condom out of his discarded pants and slid it on, and when he came back to Ashley, his lover was sitting with his legs spread, waiting. Cee-Cee couldn’t resist. She slipped out of her chair and clutched Phoenix’s cheeks, moving his mouth to Ashley’s cock.

“Mmm,” she moaned. She guided Phoenix in sucking him off, experiencing the ecstasy by proxy. As she whispered her encouragement, Phoenix furiously worked his own erection, driven practically mad with lust. Ashley growled, face contorting in a grimace of pleasure.

“Arghhh,” he groaned. “Oh, fuck…”

Phoenix made it look like a form of art. He gracefully slid his mouth up and down. Cee-Cee kissed Ashley’s mouth and swallowed his feverish moans. She rubbed his chest, squeezing his dark nipple. She was enthralled by the raw sex; the two beautiful male bodies helpless with need made desire wash over her, unending,

Phoenix, unable to hold back any longer, pulled Ashley to the edge of the couch and pushed his cock into his lover's tight ass. Ashley winced and hissed, taking it. “Fuck, yes!” Cee-Cee squirmed. She stared down in wonder at the place where the two men connected. In and out. Cock appearing, disappearing. She felt like a child watching the ocean, except for the throb in her body, the hunger on her lips. Phoenix grabbed Ashley’s shaft and slowly stroked up, then down as he eased in and pulled out of the receptive orifice. She watched how his hand curled in the familiar motion, what men spend years practicing.

Cee-Cee daringly spilled saliva onto the head of Phoenix’s cock and watched it disappear into Ashley’s body. That was part of her going in there. The look on Ashley’s face was one of sheer pleasure. He squeezed Phoenix’s wrist where Phoenix held his legs back to pound into him. He moved his ass to meet the thrusts, fucking him back. She thought she would come just from watching.

Ashley emitted the most erotic whimper and Cee-Cee dropped her mouth to his cock to suck him while Phoenix pumped in and out of his perfect body. “Oooh,” she cooed around the mouthful. “Yes,” she exhaled, the word a slow hiss. He tasted salty and ready. Pre-cum spilled onto her tongue. She stroked his testicles and rubbed Phoenix’s dick and spat again into Ashley’s ass.

Phoenix moaned. “Damn! You’re such a surprise.” He swept Cee-Cee’s hair back to stare at her sucking Ashley’s cock. He had to stop. Watching her while he did this would make him climax, and he wasn’t ready for it to be over. Not yet. He eased out of Ashley’s ass and peeled off the condom, watching Cee-Cee make Ashley’s swollen shaft quiver and tense in her mouth.

Ashley watched him back. Cee-Cee pulled away and the singer pushed Phoenix back onto the orange rug. “My turn,” he whispered. Another condom materialized.

“Um, I don’t usually…” Phoenix nervously responded.

Ashley nodded understanding. “I’ll make it special,” he teased. Phoenix blushed. He turned onto his stomach and looked back as Ashley sent his body into a frenzy with expert swipes of his tongue to Phoenix’s entrance.

“Oh, wow!”

“Is this new for you?” Cee-Cee whispered. Phoenix gritted his teeth. He couldn’t speak. All he could do was moan and whimper. Ashley slowly worked a finger inside of him and made him groan.

“Ahhh! Fuck!”

“Relax,” Cee-Cee murmured. She eased down next to him and Phoenix climbed on top of her. He pushed his rigid cock into her tight pussy and sank into the wet, pillowy perfection with another excited growl. It was intense, rapturous; his cock familiar now yet still mysterious—the pleasure was mysterious. How she needed to be filled. Fucked. Hard. Nothing else mattered. “Focus on me.”

Phoenix kissed her mouth as Ashley positioned behind him and massaged his anus. He shivered, ready. He held back, delighting in the sensation of Cee-Cee sucking lightly on his neck, just under his ear. Ashley bit his shoulder blade and pressed a hand to the base of his spine to make him deepen the arch in his back. His moist, tight ass waited and Ashley took his time entering, inch by inch.

At first, Phoenix felt a burning pain that made him clench his jaw and grunt as he bore it. But it was short lived. Ashley worked and wriggled his way inside and the pain blossomed into ecstasy the likes of which he had never known. “Uhn, fuck!” he shouted. Meanwhile, Cee-Cee’s pussy rippled with almost-orgasms around his erection. He was dangerously close to the edge now.

“I’m about to come,” he warned.

“Yes!” Cee-Cee strained her pussy against him with manic thrusts of her hips, her orgasm now fully overtaking her body. She felt like she was on fire, but instead of flames there were waves of rippling pleasure licking away at every inch of her. Her hoarse cries turned to high-pitched squeals of reckless abandon. Ashley leaned over Phoenix’s shoulders to kiss her, silencing her cries. She convulsed in Phoenix’s arms and collapsed against the floor, spent.

Ashley struggled to contain himself, but Phoenix’s virgin ass made him wild. Staccato bursts of moans flowed from his lips as his body undulated, hips rolling forward and back to thrust his rock-hard cock into the other man.

Phoenix’s primal howl filled the room as he plunged to the hilt deep inside of Cee-Cee and let go. Ashley pumped into his ass as the climax overtook him as well. He couldn’t stop, couldn’t pull out. All he could do was hammer away until the last wave of ecstasy made him freeze in perfect tension before coming undone.

He weakly fell away and his still hard cock dropped against his inner thigh. Ashley took off the condom. His creamy milk dribbled from the tip, and Phoenix greedily flicked his tongue and caught the last drop.

“I told you,” he said breathlessly. “You need me.”

Ashley didn't have the energy to disagree.

T
he three of
them lay together in Phoenix’s bed. Morning light filtered through the blinds and turned the room rosy, but it was the weekend and none of them had to get up early. Cee-Cee, who wasn’t even into cuddling, felt incredibly comfortable snuggled between the two men.

She stretched and Phoenix stirred. “Tell me about your house.” The question caught her off guard. Cee-Cee turned on her side and put her face on her palm, resting on her elbow. She watched him.

“Well, I don’t have one yet,” she murmured, smiling.

“What’s your dream house? What was Ashley talking about?”

“Oh, that. I took him with me to do some house hunting and see my top picks. I had to give up on the house I really wanted since it’s out of my budget, but it’s beautiful. Five bedrooms, over two thousand square feet of living space and a huge backyard. A big yellow house with a white picket fence. That was my dream.”

He swept her hair back from her face, trailing his hand to the back of her neck. He pressed his forehead to hers. thinking about all those bedrooms. “Why can’t it still be your dream? I thought NowIn was performing well.”

“Eh, it is, but there’s no way I’ll have enough money pulled together before someone else snatches it up. I think I just better be practical and live within my means.”

“I’ve never known you to give up on anything,” he murmured. Ashley kissed the back of her neck, and she turned to return the favor. Phoenix asked him, “What about you? What have I missed in your life while I’ve been too busy selfishly plugging away at my own?” He smiled ruefully, and Ashley chuckled sadly.

“Met my real dad. He has cancer. I’m thinking about canceling my tour so I can stick around for a while and help take care of him.”

Phoenix’s eyes widened. “That’s surprising and very sweet of you. Let me know if there’s anything I can do.”

“What can you do? Do you have a cure? I just need you guys to be here for me because it’s going to take some getting used to. It’s so weird, meeting him at the end of his life. I wish I had known him growing up, but that would mean I wouldn’t have had my dad, William. He’s an important part of who I am as well. Complicated.”

Phoenix patted his face playfully. Ashley kissed his palm. “I’m going to be a better lover,” Phoenix promised. “And a better friend.”

Cee-Cee turned on her back and stared up at the ceiling. “The both of you better stop being sentimental and adorable. I’ve had just about all of that I can take.”

“What’s the matter, Cee-Cee? Falling for us?” Ashley teased.

“How do you think things will be a year from now?” she whispered, wondering. Neither had an answer. One thing was certain: being with these two men was changing the way she thought about love, relationships and forevers. She had gotten it all wrong in the past. This was bliss.

Phoenix rolled onto his back and stared at the ceiling. She watched him. “I think I want both of you to come with me on this vacation.”

“Aren’t you worried about what people will say if we’re seen together?” Ashley muttered.

“To hell with what people will say,” Cee-Cee replied. “We’re going on vacation!”

Phoenix replied, “People won’t say anything, because I’m going to take us someplace no one knows us.”

“
O
ne date
,” Gina said from other end of the line. “One night with you, Mayor Briton. I did what you needed me to do and set up that interview with Five Parker. Now, all I need from you is a precious few hours of alone time together.”

Phoenix smirked at the prospect as he gripped the telephone against his ear. He had to do what he had to do to stay on Gina’s good side so she could set up that interview with Five Parker and make sure the vivacious talk show host stuck to the script. Bryan Friedman had made it clear that Gina was the only one at PR-ISM who did what she did, maneuvering with local television networks and publications.

“I’m agreeable to that. But you have to guarantee me that Five Parker will keep his interview short and stick to the questions we’re giving him. If we make this interview work for us, I’m pretty sure it will shine on your resume. You won’t have to say that you work locally. This network broadcasts nationwide,” he said.

Gina tittered loftily. “Naturally, I appreciate your help with that. Maybe this will be the thing that shows my supervisor I’m ready for a promotion.” She blathered on about work, and Phoenix effectively feigned attentiveness, but he was lost in thought.

Phoenix had already reported to his father that he would be announcing his step down in the next two months. The election loomed closer, and it was perfect timing for such an announcement.

Buddy was hanging tight in the polls, right under Phoenix. To make matters more interesting, a newcomer had thrown her hat into the ring, and she had a chance, if her current momentum was anything to judge by. Leslie Zanders was an outspoken Independent who reminded him of Hillary Clinton. It was surprising that she was doing so well in this town, but maybe the people were that ready for a change. Phoenix had had to restructure some of his platform values to stay one step ahead of her.

Keeping ahead of the pack became more and more difficult, the more personal problems cropped up in his life. He had managed to make it believable that Cee-Cee was a serious girlfriend. The public was eating her up. She had no idea of how many people were rooting for them to announce their engagement either ahead of or right after the election. Having a wife would be superb for his image. He wondered if she would go along with getting married as easily as she had gone along with dating.

Probably not. But he imagined the two them in a five-bedroom house, a couple of kids—Ashley visiting, the “Aussie Uncle.” Christ, what was wrong with him. That’s not what she wanted.

Once he got past that interview with Five Parker, he’d have more insurance in case his father released those pictures. He sighed as he considered how many times he’d have to fight this voracious cougar off on this ‘one date’ she was proposing.

“You also have to promise me Cee-Cee won’t hear a word about this.”

“Don’t worry, Phoenix. I know the value of a good, quiet lady friend. Listen, my life doesn’t revolve around Cora-Lynn Carson. Me wanting to go out with you has nothing to do with her. This is about me and you.”

“You have a lot of confidence in yourself, don’t you,” he spoke into the phone. Her laughter echoed from the other end.

“I just know what I can do, and you will soon, too.”

“Well, I’m not exactly sure what you have in mind when you say that, but I’m not an easily persuaded man,” he promised. He was hoping she meant she was great at her PR job, but he knew that wasn’t it.

“Like I said, you give me a chance, one date, and I’ll do the rest.”

After he hung up the phone, he contemplating calling Cee-Cee and letting her know what he was doing. There was nothing intimate about this date. It was strictly business. That way if Gina got catty enough to try to make it an issue at PR-ISM, she would already be in the loop. He wasn’t going to succumb to Gina’s wiles. There’d be no sex, but he’d let her down easy to keep her ego intact.

However, judging by the way Cee-Cee had responded to the woman simply flirting with him, Phoenix wasn’t so sure Cee-Cee would be okay with that. She was his public girlfriend, and she had put such energy into playing her role. She’d feel betrayed if he went out with someone else and made her look bad, but what was his alternative? Phoenix pushed his hair back and rubbed his eyes, and a tap at his door drew his attention.

“Yeah, come in,” Phoenix called out. His secretary stepped into the mayoral office.

“You might want to see this.” The secretary hurried over to Phoenix’s desk and showed him his phone where a video was set to play. Phoenix’s forehead furrowed when the video started and he saw it was Buddy.

In white letters against a red screen, words came spinning at the viewer. “What’s Mayor Phoenix Briton hiding?” Buddy appeared and pointed at the viewer with a glower. He was a short pudgy man with an old-fashioned handlebar mustache. He had always reminded Phoenix of a sleazy used car dealer, and this ad fit the bill perfectly.

“Do you know what the mayor has been up to while he’s been in office? I don’t! He’s sealed important documents related to his so-called philanthropy, and I suspect his charitable acts are all fluff. But you don’t have to take my word for it. Let’s ask him. Phoenix Briton, what are you hiding? The people deserve to know!”

It was a cheesy ad, poorly funded and nothing worth looking at twice, but the message disturbed him greatly, knowing what he knew about the pictures his father was holding. Did Buddy Steele know about those pictures, too?

Probably not about the pictures per se, he decided. But he knew Phoenix’s dad had something. How else was the old man keeping Buddy appeased? Sooner or later, Wallace would have to show his hand.

Phoenix murmured to his secretary, “Thanks for showing me, but we’re not going to worry about that now. How am I looking in the polls?”

“Still at the top. Leslie Zanders and Buddy Steele coming in close second.”

“As long as I’m still at the top, that’s all that matters.” When he was done with this interview with Five Parker, he hoped to be further in the lead. If he presented himself as a political leader who was aware of the changing times while still keeping his town’s best interests at heart, he could win over more voters.

But things had to be done carefully. So far, all was well. He was dating Cee-Cee, and he had to present himself as a heterosexual male who was tolerant enough but not too tolerant. Unfortunately, Five Parker had already linked him to Ashley, but he could say Ashley was just a friend. Phoenix rubbed his tired eyes. Just how much of Ashley’s personal life might come back to haunt him by association? He needed to do some research.

Phoenix turned to his computer and pulled up everything he could find on the rock star. What he discovered didn’t bode well for his campaign. Ashley was all over the Internet . Worse, his sexuality wasn’t anything secret. Everyone knew he was bisexual; he’d been linked with certain hot Australian actors and rockers.

“Damn it, Ashley,” he muttered in frustration.

The best thing for him to do would be to get out and about with Ashley to make it clear they were nothing more than two bros. No private dinner dates or going to the movies, and no more hanging out at the Yellow Lounge together, which was what had put him in this predicament in the first place. They needed a safe public presence so when the subject of Ashley came up during that interview, he could say they were simply friends.

Unless the pictures got out. The ones he hadn’t seen yet, but could imagine.

With Buddy drawing attention to him, Phoenix vaguely wondered if he should ask Ashley to sit the vacation out, but he didn’t want to do that. It would be easy enough to say a group trip was innocuous. He merely needed to cover his bases on the home front. Phoenix picked up his cellphone and dialed Ashley’s number, smiling when the Aussie greeted him on the first ring. “You want to hang out?”

“Phoenix?”

“Yeah, it’s me. I’ve been thinking about what you said the other night about me not making time for my friends. I’ve got the rest of the day free, and I want to spend some time with you.”

“Are you sure you want to do that? I saw Buddy Steele’s slanderous ad on the local news channel. I don’t want to cost you your election.”

“Don’t worry about that. Do you want to see me or not? I miss you.” It was true. He did miss him, and he did want to spend time with him. He just wanted to do it on his terms so it could benefit his campaign instead of hurting it. Ashley admitted that he did want to see him, and Phoenix pushed away from his desk and grabbed his keys. “I’m on my way over to your hotel. Be ready.”

“I was actually on my way out to see my dad at the hospital. Why don’t you come with?”

“Alright, I’ll be there in a few.”
