And One Makes Three (Carnal Coeds)
until Becca realized them on her own. He picked on her as she flirted with other men, trying to get her to admit she found other people attractive. He felt that if they could choose the third of their trio together, it could be a bonding experience for both of them.
    Now it looked as if she’d picked someone without him.
    “This isn’t what it looks like,” Becca said.
    The lifeguard stood and stepped back. “No, it isn’t. We were just talking.”
    Did they really think Gabe was that stupid? If Gabe had come five minutes later, they would’ve been rolling around on the blanket in each other’s arms. An image that both fascinated and scared the shit out of him.
    Gabe knew that the difficulties in their relationship were the result of unfulfilled sexual fantasies. Becca on the other hand, had yet to come to that realization. If she thought that breaking up with him and falling into the arms of another would help her feel less dissatisfied, then she had another think coming. Gabe would never let her go so easily. It had been a long time since he found someone who liked kink as much as him. If he could only make her realize that a little erotic play was all they needed, then they’d become inseparable. He just knew it.
    Gabe shoved the ice cream cone at Becca and sat down on the blanket. He scowled at the lifeguard as he placed his arm around her in a possessive gesture. “Thanks for keeping my girlfriend company. I can take it from here.”
    The stranger cleared his throat and straightened. “My, uh, my group is coming.” He pointed to a spot over their shoulder. “CPR training will begin in five minutes. You two better get going.”
    “Oh yes,” Becca shoved her way out of Gabe’s hold and stood. “I’ve had about enough of the beach for one day.” She dumped her cone and began carefully folding the blankets, avoiding Gabe’s gaze.
    Lovely, now it seems like I’ve fucked up yet again. Gabe stood and glanced at the approaching lifeguards. He wanted to have a frank discussion with Becca about their relationship and how they needed to choose a third together , but now wasn’t the time. He silently began to pick up their things and put them into bags.
    “I’m sorry we didn’t get more of a chance to talk, Lane.” Becca touched Lane’s hand. Lane jerked his fingers away and glanced at Gabe. His smooth, youthful features appeared uncomfortable. Good. Serves him right for trying to kiss my girlfriend.
    Still the situation probably wasn’t this guy’s fault. Gabe knew better than anyone how easy it was to get swept up in Becca’s wake. Besides, he didn’t want to completely burn this bridge. The man was hot and if it turned out that he was into kink as well…
    Gabe put his arm around Becca and held out his hand. “No hard feelings, buddy.”
    The lifeguard nodded and cleared his throat. “No hard feelings.” He quickly pumped Gabe’s hand in a firm grip and brushed past them.
    Gabe bit back a gasp. So strong. He imagined those firm hands on his ass, pulling him closer until their swollen cocks rubbed together.
    How long had it been since he had been with a man? Too long. Gabe glanced over his shoulder at the lifeguard’s retreating form. Wow. Becca’s new flirtation was perfection personified. Such a tight backside. What Gabe wouldn’t give to run his fingers over those firm cheeks. He felt his cock stir and knew he had to get both him and Becca out of there before he did something he’d regret later.
    “Why do you have to be such an ass sometimes?” Becca’s voice dissolved his thoughts and brought him back to reality.
    “What do you mean?”
    She frowned and picked up the bags and blankets. “Don’t tell me you have no idea what you did.”
    “He was kissing you. What should I have done? Joined the two of you on the blanket?” Shit, that would have been hot. Heat swept through Gabe’s veins as an image of entangled limbs invaded his mind. He’d be on top, of course, thrusting his hard
