“I did no such thing.” A touch of anger carried in her voice.
“Oh?” Again with the one word reply, which seemed to make Ren a touch more angry at the situation.
“I chose him, and Callum…and you.” She finished with a look down and away.
“That…” Grayson was speechless.
Ren walked over to where he stood in the way of the french doors that led into the room. He stood tall and proud—as he always had. His arms were crossed over his broad chest.
She placed her small hand on the crook of his elbow and looked him in the eye.
“I choose you too.”
Ren held eye contact as long as she could before the need to blink kicked in. Grayson just stared back at her in disbelief. His mouth slightly opened as though he were about to say something, yet no words escaped.
Ren was waiting for Grayson to make that move, the one that let her know for certain that he would choose her too. It never came though.
Ren stood on her toes and leaned into him, placing a gentle kiss on his cheek near the corner of his mouth. Soft. Sweet. Almost innocent—if her intention wasn’t backed with the lust she felt in the pit of her stomach.
“Don’t.” He grabbed her by her wrists and held her in place in front of him.
“Don’t what?”
“Don’t you dare…” He trailed off not knowing exactly what he wanted to say.
“Don’t I dare, care about you…want you…need you?” She whispered the last words.
“You don’t need me, no one has ever needed me.” A vulnerability in Grayson escaped with that statement. He still held her by the wrists directly in front of himself. HIs look softened as he gazed deeply into her eyes.
“I need you all.” She confirmed.
Grayson scooped her up by her ass and Ren wrapped her legs around his large frame the best that she could. He turned themaround and pressed her into the wall next to the doorway, her back against the gold leaf covered wallpaper.
“I am already bound to you by blood. You would have me bound to your soul?” His words carried the weight of the world for him.
“I want you.” She replied easily. Her honesty was somewhat a surprise to herself too. She really had wanted him. Wanted to explore what it would be like to know him more intimately.
“I will never let you go. Never is a long time when you can live for an eternity.” His smirk capped off the statement.
Grayson started to grind his hips into her center. The friction caused his cock to harden. A bulge pressed into Ren’s center. She let loose a moan that Grayson swallowed with a kiss, deep and passionate.
He held her up with his own body weight pressed against the wall which freed his hands to caress her body and squeeze her breasts, all the while deepening the kiss.
Ren pressed her hands into his chest as a means to get enough room to speak.
“You don’t care that I want to have you all? I want to be with you and your brothers. I have feelings for all of you.”
She waited with bated breath for his reply.
“It’s honestly all I could have asked for. We share in everything else, so why not this as well?”
Grayson carried her over to the table with one arm banded around her waist, and the other massaging her ass cheek, still managing to walk even with the awkward position and his growing erection.
When he reached the table, he laid her out. Her hair fell to the side with the motion, and her legs spread wide.
Grayson leaned back to admire her form.
“You are a work of art.”
