squeezed them tight. A collective sigh ran through them. The tension in Jane ebbed away slightly.
    Margot rubbed her silky cheek against Jane’s, and then kissed her.
    The first meeting of their mouths melted all worry from her body. As their lips glided over one another’s with growing abandon, Margot went boneless. Ethan supported her easily, lashing them both to his body as he watched them kiss.
    Then Margot turned to Ethan and gave him the same attention.
    A sliver of heat coursed through Jane. Watching her husband’s hard mouth commanding Margot’s was one of the hottest things she’d ever witnessed.
    Jane smoothed Margot’s dark waves off her face. The light scent of Margot’s perfume released into the air. She leaned in to gather more of the sweet smell into her lungs, pressing little kisses over the crest of Margot’s cheek and down her jaw to her throat.
    Margot issued a soft moan.
    “Tell us you have time, Margot. Please.” Ethan’s gaze was hungry as he waited for her response.
    She slipped a hand around each of their necks and drew their heads together. “I have an early shift tomorrow. I hadn’t planned to stay, just to talk. But now that I’m here, I don’t know if I can leave you.”With a low growl, Ethan lifted them both off their feet. “I’ll get the wine and we’ll talk first. But I can’t wait for long, ladies.” He released them and headed off for the kitchen. With a grin at Margot, Jane took her hand and led her to their bedroom. Once inside, it was impossible not to grab her and crush her mouth to Margot’s again.
    Margot’s lips parted instantly. Their tongues met with fervent ardor. The slippery feel of her tongue sent bolts of heat through Jane’s body. She gently cupped Margot’s face and pinched her own eyes shut, enjoying her lover’s unique flavor. Margot possessed her femi-nine musk as always, but tonight there was a hint of mint, and something deeper that Jane couldn’t put her finger on. Something wilder.

    Angling her head, Jane took what she wanted. She swept the moist cavern of Margot’s mouth as her fingers played over her hair to her shoulders and spread down her back.
    Margot’s arms tightened around Jane’s waist. A thrill ran through her.Ethan’s voice sounded from the doorway. “Hey, I thought we were talking. You started without me.” With a shared giggle, they broke apart. He crossed to them and placed a wine glass in each of their hands. His scalding gaze fell upon Margot. “To new passions.” He clinked glasses with her and Jane, and then tipped the ruby contents into his mouth.
    After everyone had a sip, he led them to the small seating group in the corner. They’d used the chairs here in several of their lovemaking sessions, and Jane couldn’t help but be reminded of this as they curled up together, she and Margot in one chair and Ethan in another.
    “I have something to say to you two,” Margot said at once, setting aside her drink.
    A worm of fear settled into Jane’s belly. She didn’t like the sound of that, even if Margot’s lovely face was without the creases of worry.
    “You know I was with someone last night and tonight.” Ethan gave a nod, but Jane froze.
    “He’s an amazing man. A veteran of the War in Iraq. He’s brilliant and funny, but he’s going through a rough patch since he came home.
    He’s injured, you see.” She gave a small sigh, and the corners of her lips turned up so beautifully, Jane’s heart squeezed hard. “Most of the pain is trauma I think, although his leg took a bad hit. He has some ghost pain according to the doctors, and physical therapy will help.
    But in the past two days, I’ve wondered if he doesn’t need something more.”
    The tone of her voice brought Jane’s questions to the fore. “More as in...you?”
    Margot’s dark gaze flashed, and she dropped it to her hands, which suddenly twisted in her lap. “I know it sounds sudden, but I really like him. I’m not gullible
