Screwing two guys? Now that's easy. But living with them? That's an entirely different story. I love my life. With the career I've always dreamed of just one phone call away, and two hot guys who have tied up my personal life in the very best of ways, what more could a girl ask for? Yet as hot and steamy as the sex is with Jack and Simon, sex alone does not a relationship make. We each have our own demons to battle, but acknowledging them can be much harder than it seems. Not having enough time to spend with the guys is wearing me down, and as much as I love being Simon's submissive, I need more from him than the occasional workout in the attic. Simon is still hung up on what happened in the past, and sometimes, I'm not sure that he has realized that Jack and I can give him everything he'd ever want. Then there is Jack-who is learning to accept us as we are, but still wears his heart on his sleeve-a constant reminder that I'm not the only one who needs so much more than we have right now. And with our track record? Let's just say that I hope that we can work this out before we end up unravelling all ties between us.
