“I’m sorry to bring such grim news. If you need anything, please contact me.” He hands his business card to Uncle Liam and they both turn and leave the room.

“Little Mouse, look at me.” Uncle Liam’s deep, soothing voice breaks Elena from her sobs and Killian releases her so she can look over to him.

“Yes, Sir.”

“I know that no matter how badly they may have treated you, they’re still your parents. It’s okay to mourn the loss of the people they could have been. But do not mourn who they are. Just know that they can never hurt you or anyone else ever again. So cry if you need to. But tomorrow there will be no more tears for them. I can handle the arrangements for the disposal of what’s left of their bodies. If you want a grave, I’ll do it. If you want them tossed into the ocean, I will. It’s your choice.”

“Okay,” she whimpers.

We sit with her, letting her shed all the tears for the life she used to have, knowing that today starts a new one. It’ll be one filled with love, happiness, and babies. Lots of babies. I just wish that my parents could be here to spoil them.

Chapter 29

Liam

One year later

“Okay, Little Mouse, just a few more steps and we’ll be there,” I tell her, holding her securely in case she steps wrong.

I still can’t believe I’ve had this beauty in my life for a year. It’s been full of ups and downs, but I wouldn’t change it for the world.

We knew we couldn’t give the money Elena’s parents stole back to her, so instead we started a foundation in her name and each year we award ten thousand dollars to a child from an abusive family to further their education. She doesn’t know about it, but that's okay. We know she’d approve. We just didn’t want her asking questions we didn’t want to answer.

“Where are we going?” she impatiently asks again.

“It’s a surprise.”

I’ve learned over this last year that Elena hates surprises. I think her parents had something to do with that. But the boys and I plan to show her they can be amazing.

As I move into the room with her, I see the boys are already in place, both on a bent knee. I just need to join them.

“Okay, I’m going to let go of you for just a moment. Don’t try to move anywhere. I’ll tell you when it's time to remove the blindfold.”

“Yes, Sir.” God, my cock stirs in my pants every time she calls me that.

Once I’m sure she’s good, I let go of her arm and step away, taking my spot beside Killian. Kyrian goes ahead and opens the black velvet box holding the princess-cut diamond.

“Remove your mask,” I order.

She lifts her hands, sliding the black eye mask up her face.

“What—”

“Will you marry us?” we say in unison. We’ve practiced enough times so each word is perfectly in sync.

“Yes,” she cries as she rushes forward, dropping to her knees.

“One year ago, in this very room, you stepped out on this stage and changed our lives forever. I knew it before these two, but in that moment I knew you were mine without ever saying a word to you,” Kyrian says first.

“I was torn between my family and you. I’d move heaven and earth for you, Elena. We were alive, but not truly living. Our parents' death created a hole in our lives that only you could fill,” Killian says next.

Now it’s my turn. I’ve practiced the words yet they don’t come out. At this moment, they don’t seem right.

“Elena, my little mouse. I’d given up on love for a long time. I wasn’t even sure I ever wanted to take a permanent submissive. But you came and rocked my world to the core. I fought my feelings for you and it caused you to think the worst—that I didn’t want you—when all I wanted to do was claim you. To have you submit your body and soul to me willingly. I love you, Elena Hastings, and I can’t wait to make you Elena Sartori.”

“I love you. All three of you. Who knew that taking part in an auction, selling my virginity, would be the best thing to ever happen to me? It was meant to be a way to keep a roof over my head and save my mother, when in fact it saved me. It brought me the three of you.”

I rise from the floor, take her hand in mine, and lead her off the stage, guiding her to the same room she changed in. It looks different now. Edward had a bed delivered and we plan to make love to our girl here.
