Mafia Desire (Erotica)

Now that she had a rational moment to think about what they’d done, she started to worry. Hannah had quite specifically told them that Ben wasn’t ready for a relationship, and there was to be no more unsolicited sexual contact. Well, Ben started it so it couldn’t be called unsolicited. Still, she was worried that she might have done him some harm emotionally.

She must have been frowning as she felt his fingers smoothing out the crease between her eyes.

“This is a no frown zone,” Ben teased. “Any thoughts that may cause them must be banished.”

She looked up at him and smiled. “Sorry.”

“Maybe we should get cleaned up,” he suggested. “I’ve been told my shower can fit three.”

“Are you suggesting I shower with you?” she said with a raised eyebrow.

“Not if you feel that would be too intimate,” he smiled.

She chuckled and slid off of him. Ben led the way into the bathroom, and she couldn’t tear her eyes away from his naked body to notice the shower.

“Hello! Amazing bathroom reno here!” Ben scowled playfully at Gabriella while he gestured at the room when he caught her staring. He shook his head and stepped in to get the water going. She followed.

Gabriella gasped in surprise when Ben activated the side jets, and wonderfully hot water shot inwards from all sides.

“You’ve never been in a shower with surround jets before?” he asked.

“No, it’s wonderful! Of course, I’ve never been in the shower with a man before either,” she smiled up at him.

She dipped her head under the stream from the ceiling-mounted rain shower head. Ben ran his fingers through her long black hair, ensuring the water got to every strand. She purred at the feeling of his strong hands in her hair. She stepped back from the downpour, and he tilted her head up as he brought his lips down to hers. A thrill shot through her body as his tongue caressed her bottom lip, and she moaned into his mouth.

He reached out and poured some shampoo into his hands and worked it into her hair. His fingers massaged her scalp as the bubbles spread through her hair. Ben gently worked shampoo all the way to the ends of her hair, and once he was sure he got it all, he pulled her back under the dropping spray. Once more, he massaged her scalp as he thoroughly rinsed her hair. He repeated the process taking a kiss between each stage. Gabriella’s nipples were stiff with need, so he bent down and took one into his mouth and ran the tip of his tongue over the sensitive bud. She gasped and pulled his head tighter against her breast. He treated the other nipple to the same, and Gabriella’s knees started to tremble.

Ben poured some body wash into his hands and rubbed it over Gabriella’s arms, then her back and chest. He was careful not to overstimulate her nipples and worked his way down her body. He gently cleaned between her legs, and she gasped as one, then two fingers stroked inside her. He kept up the internal massage as he kissed his way down her stomach. When his mouth reached her lower lips, she cried out and pulled his head tightly against her as she crested through a gentle yet powerful release. Ben braced her body against his as her muscles shook and trembled. He pulled her under the shower to rinse the suds away, then gently sat her on the bench to recuperate while he quickly washed his hair and body.

He helped her to her feet, and they stepped out to get fluffy towels to dry themselves off. He finished first as she was still languidly coming down from her last orgasm, so he moved to help her. She loved the feel of his strong hands, rubbing her body through the towel. He used the towel to squeeze most of the water from her hair, then sat her on a stool in front of the mirror and pulled out a hairdryer and brush.

“Wendy used to let me dry her hair for her. May I?” Ben asked.

She smiled and nodded. He got to work. She got to admire his naked body in the mirror as he worked. While she had a towel wrapped around herself, Ben was totally unselfconscious about being naked with her as he concentrated on her hair, and she loved it.

He did a passable job at styling her drying hair, and she grinned at his happy smile as he finished up. Not precisely as she would have done it, but she didn’t look bad!

When Ben shut off the hairdryer, they heard the doorbell. They looked at each other, but it was Gabriella that wore a guilty look.

Ben saw the look and wondered what it meant. “What’s with that look? Did you invite someone over?” he asked.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“No! I don’t know who that is,” she said, but the look remained. He raised his eyebrow and waited for her to explain.

The doorbell rang again. She jumped up and rushed into the bedroom to pull on her clothes. Ben walked out and pulled on his robe. He left the bedroom to answer the door as Gabriella struggled to get her panties from insider the leg of her yoga pants.

The doorbell rang once more, and Ben opened it to see Catherine looking up at him with a worried expression. He stood back, and she stepped in quickly.

“What’s wrong? What happened?” he asked

“What? Nothing’s wrong. You just didn’t answer your door for a long time,” Cat said quietly, the look still on her face.

“Sorry, I was in the shower,” Ben answered as he hung up her coat. “To what do I owe the honor of your midday visit?” He knew she worked downtown, so seeing her at… he looked at the clock. A twelve-thirty PM visit was out of the norm.

“I spoke with Hannah this morning, and she said you were feeling a little blue. I heard Gabriella had come to see you-” she froze as her friend came down the hallway from Ben’s room. Cat took in the slight tenderness in her movements, the guilty look, and the new hairstyle. Her mouth dropped open.

Ben looked from Catherine to Gabriella and saw the guilty look was back full force.

“Could someone please tell me what is going on with you two?” he asked.

Cat’s eyes began to well up with tears, and she looked back at Ben. He saw her stricken expression, and his heart clenched in his chest. This was what he was afraid of.

“NO!” Gabriella yelled angrily, and the others froze. “Stop right there! NO ONE gets to feel bad until we clear the air!” she said, staring at her friend.

“I think it’s pretty clear-” Cat began.

“Then, you’d be wrong!” Gabriella stressed and stepped up and took her friend’s arms in hers so she could look directly into her eyes. “Ben knows we love him, both of us and Tina. He still needs to work with his counselor to resolve his issues with accepting that he’s worthy of love, but one thing he does not have to worry about is hurting us by our loving him. I don’t need to ask Ben for an exclusive relationship. I know his heart is capable of so much love I’m not threatened by his loving another. He cares deeply for Tina, and she needs him so much! I think that’s beautiful! I know you love him as much as I do. I would never try to keep you two apart. I love you too much to be that mean!”

Catherine pulled her friend into a hug, and they cried on each other’s shoulders. Ben watched them with tears in his own eyes, but the pain he’d felt was gone. This actually felt like medicine for his soul. The words Gabriella had spoken earlier were being demonstrated right before his eyes, and his heart felt lighter for it. She’d surprised and impressed him once more. He was still confused by her guilty look and wanted an answer.

When the two friends got control of themselves, he led them into the living room, and they sat on the couch with Catherine in the middle.

“Why did you look so guilty when Catherine showed up?” Ben asked.

Gabriella smiled at Cat. “Well, I broke the spirit of the agreement we all made last night when the women got together to talk about what we could do to help you. Hannah told us no more unsolicited sexual contact. You kissed me first, so it wasn’t unsolicited, but the point was to give you some breathing room, some time to heal emotionally.”

“Gabriella, your talk with me this morning was more healing than anything I’ve ever experienced. What you and Catherine did just now has proven your words. The pressure I’ve felt on my heart has been lifted. Yes, I’m still anxious about why such beautiful and wonderful women are showing interest in me. I’m worried that love will disappear suddenly like a soap bubble. It’s happened so many times in my past. But you’ve helped me so much, I can’t begin to describe it!”

“I wish I’d been here!” Cat said longingly.

Ben turned her face towards him with a finger on her chin and kissed her. She moaned loudly as he sucked her lower lip between his and ran his tongue across the plump flesh before slipping into her mouth. Catherine immediately climbed onto his lap, and Gabriella grinned at the surprised look on Ben’s face before it was hidden beneath Cat’s white-blond hair as she pushed him back on the couch.
