 That s not such a bad idea. In fact 
Ella s sputtered with shock, her words getting choked off the
instant she saw that both Ben and Dirk, though fully dressed, had
erections standing out through unbuttoned trousers. In the pale
moonlight and cast against the dark fabric of their trousers, the twin
columns of lust-hardened flesh looked eerily pale and very predatory.
With gargantuan understatement, Dirk declared in a casual tone,
 We ve missed you.
 Obviously! Ella took a step backward, her vision
simultaneously drawn toward those parts of her lovers anatomies that
gave her such exquisite pleasure, and appalled that they would allow
their baser desires to have free rein when Blue was so close they
could see him reclining near the campfire.  Have you completely lost
your minds?
Ben reached for Ella, and she skipped backward several steps.
 You make us crazy, he said, prompting a scowl from Ella.  Don t
be shy, he said, his smile instantly becoming disarmingly benign, his
powerful erection suggesting a rather more aggressive state of mind.
 Blue s a long way away. And even if he wasn t, I m sure he d
understand.

 Understand? Ella exclaimed, much louder than she would have
liked.  How could he possibly understand what the three of us feel for
each other when I don t understand it myself?
 Let s not quibble. Dirk moved so that he put a little more
distance between himself and Ben while at the same time stepping
closer to Ella. They could approach her now from different directions.
In a way, it reminded Ella of the way wolves positioned themselves
when moved in on a doe.  The night is warm, there s very little
moonlight, and no reason in the world Ben and I shouldn t give you
pleasure.
A frisson of sensation went through Ella at hearing Dirk s
declaration. The word  pleasure conjured emotions so vividly
recalled that a small gasp caught in her throat, and her nipples
tightened in sympathetic response. She raised her hands defensively.
Dirk grabbed her left wrist, causing her to drop her boots.
 You can t do this! Ella said, her statement coming out so fast
they nearly sound like a single word.  Blue s going to catch us!
Ben grabbed her right wrist, and Ella s freshly laundered and still
damp socks, chemise, and underpants fell from her fingers to the grass
below.
An emotion very near panic suddenly came over Ella. Though her
desire for Ben and Dirk was undiminished, the notion of shedding her
natural inhibitions with her two lovers when her intemperate behavior
might be witnessed by Blue was unthinkable.
 Stop it! she hissed. She pulled hard, trying to free her wrists
from their grasp. Though neither man was straining, they held her
securely with very little effort.  Don t do this to me. In a hushed
whisper laced through with fear and embarrassment, she added,  I ll
do anything you want me to do just not now.
 Sorry, my love, Dirk replied, pulling Ella closer with his left
hand as his right eased beneath the heavy, silken hair at the nape of
her neck.  I kept my distance from you last night, and it damned near
killed me to do it. I need a kiss. That s not asking too much.
Ella s Desire 81
But his cock was telling quite a different story, one that suggested
the big Dutchman wanted kisses, all right...and so much more. The
sight of his pulsing flesh caused a myriad of emotions to ricochet
through Ella s consciousness. There was a part of her a wicked,
wanton part of her newly discovered sensuality that wanted to drop
to her knees to caress his magnificent erection with her lips and
tongue, to feel him pulsing with virility as she sucked and nibbled,
receiving sensual pleasure by giving it. But there was another part of
Ella, the part of her that set very definable boundaries of right and
wrong, that thought such behavior was thoroughly wicked and was
made a thousand times more licentious when there was a possibility
that a bystander would witness her licentious behavior.
 Don t. It was a small sound that came from Ella. The men
pinned her between them.  I don t want to do this. But in her tone
was equivocation. Even she heard it, and she damned herself for it.
 Give me the opportunity, Ben said as he firmly twisted Ella s
arm so the wrist he held now pressed against the small of her back,
 to change your mind.
 You re wicked, Ella whispered as Ben leaned down, his face
coming nearer to her own.
 The devil you say, Ben replied as his mouth slanted down over
hers.

Chapter Seven
She felt overwhelmed by her lovers, and most startling and
flattering for a woman of generous dimensions, magnificently small
and feminine. She was pinned between Dirk and Ben, her arms held
securely behind her back. Ben s mouth pressed securely against her
own while Dirk kissed her throat. A strong, long-fingered hand
caressed her breast, touching her through her shirt. Another strong
hand was between her legs, a palm pressed snuggly at the apex of her
thighs, the contact bold, demanding. For Ella to feel the caresses and
not know which of her lovers it was added significantly to the
experience of being overwhelmed by masculine dominance and
forbidden desires.
Little time had passed from Ella s discovery that Ben and Dirk
were waiting for her in the shadows just past the campfire s glow, to
the time that she was trembling while Ben s tongue explored her
mouth. One strong hand busily unbuttoned her blouse while another
hand unbuckled her belt and began opening her English riding
breeches. The rapidity with which these men could ignite
unquenchable fires of longing mystified Ella. She had never been a
woman ruled by her passions, yet here she was, standing between two
of the territory s most notorious rakes, dancing her tongue with Ben s
while Dirk s moist lips caressed her throat just beneath her ear. Only
the awareness that Blue Sun Rising, a man she hardly knew, was
nearby prevented Ella from surrendering herself once more, willingly
and without reservations, to her lovers.
When Ben ended his kiss, Ella tried to move her hands from
behind her back. Neither of her lovers seemed inclined to relinquish
