I can only take ten minutes so it's just going to be some impression without any guaranties for coherence ;)
I loved the way you portrayed the three of them, it's hard to tell whom I liked best, they are all gorgeous.
I was fascinated by the power structure. Teresa's voice so very strong, her ability to take care of herself, her leadership experiences, her strong desire for independence, and on the other hand her feeling for Richard, also exceptionally strong. Despite all of her independence she is so strongly drawn to him, and although she is admirably pragmatic and clever (she would rather have him be honest than faithful) there is a longing there, maybe unthought of, maybe not for romance, marriage etc but for a sense of belonging. She wears her connection to Richard like a badge, he is a good man in the truest sense, honest, dedicated, down-to earth, has a strong sense of protectiveness (towards her, Patrick, the Chosen Men), she has chosen wisely, he is not going to hurt her (the fact that she does not want to swallow paints a terribly vivid picture that explains part of her strong feelings for Richard). And he is fond of Patrick, which is fine because he is safe with him, in more than one way. Patrick is going to protect him form getting hurt if it's in his power, and protect her as well (no, she does not want another woman to have his child).
Patrick truly is adorable in his respect for her and for his Captain, so strongly planted into his circuits that he keeps calling her Miss Teresa still while they are half-clothed at best. I loved how the two of them worked together to coax Richard into this who's sense of propriety is so strong (a little guilt?). The coax him forward so cleverly while letting him stay completely in control, and he seems to need the double reassurance, while he might be fine to let down his guard with each of them separately this new situation seems to make him uncomfortable. This whole scene is masterly told and incredibly hot. Can I quote back my favorite a part of a sex scene?
Harper was so much closer now, his weight pressing Richard down onto her, and her fingers skittered across golden skin until she felt the edge of Harper’s palm. Harper grabbed hold of her hand, tangling her fingers with his own before he pressed something into her palm. Teresa leaned back, turned her head even as she felt Richard’s hands on her thighs, spreading her legs wide. She let him, arching her back and raising her hips, and he kissed her collarbone, her breast, his mouth against her nipple. He was pressing inside her, spreading her open, and Teresa moaned soft, under her breath.
What fascinates me the most is that I can't tell who is in control during all of this. Teresa? Patrick? Or after all Richard you could end all of it with a flick of his wrist? Or does he only appear to be the one in power because he links Teresa to Patrick?
