"No. I don't want to be alone again."
Donovan pressed a kiss against the back of Kara's neck. "We don't want to be alone, either, Kara."
"But ... " She took a staggered breath as his hands cupped her breasts, rolling the nipples between his fingers, then smoothing his palms against her stomach and waist. "As part of a threesome?"
"Why not? You'd come home from work and someone would always be home. You'd go to bed and someone would be in bed with you. There'd always be someone to talk to, to have dinner with, to shop with ... it's the perfect solution." Kara sighed when his hands returned to her breasts, kneading them briskly. "Plus you know that you're loved."
Kara thought about what he was saying as she came, shuddering in his arms as Amalie's agile tongue sent her over the edge again. She felt so good as Donovan put his arms around her from behind and Amalie stood and embraced her from the front, her lips finding hers in a soft kiss. "We want you, Kara, and not just today. For as long as you want to stay with us."
"Please," His soft lips kissed the edge of her ear. "Please become one with us."
Kara was overwhelmed with emotion and bit her lip, fighting back tears. "All right."

Kara stood at the window, looking down into the parking lot as she sipped her tea. Had it really been three weeks since all that had happened? Her body ached with the memory of Donovan's rough hands and Amalie's soft ones but it was her heart that ached the most of all. Once she'd made her decision, they had left the shower and tucked her into bed, departing with the promise of returning to pick her up in three weeks. She had protested at first, upset that she wasn't going to get the chance to make love with Donovan but he told her that he wanted to do it right, that he wanted to welcome her into their family properly. Since then, she had been alone.
Sheldon had tried to talk her out of it, of course but Kara knew that he was more upset with the idea that a black man would be cumming inside her. She brushed him off as easily as he had done her, though she felt uneasy about the whole situation, especially when she hadn't heard from them since. She glanced around the apartment, staring at her life, neatly packaged and boxed, wondering if she'd have a chance to open it and to live the life that Donovan and Amalie had promised.
A horn sounded outside and a moving van pulled up, closely followed by a black Hummer and she held her breath, waiting to see who got out. Donovan slid out of the front seat of the van, along with three other men and Amalie parked the car, her brightly-wrapped braids flowing out behind her. Kara didn't know whether to cry from relief or joy and wiped her eyes as she opened the door and hung out over the railing, waving at them.
"It's about time!"
