LOL why?

Me

I just woke up to Rowan and Max talking beside me in the living room.

Mia

Oh lol. Surprise. Don’t feel bad. Pretty sure Rowan might have seen me get railed the night I saw him there.

Me

This makes me nervous

Mia

Why? Can’t handle two Doms?

Me

I was intentionally not going to ask if he was a Dom. Ugh.

Mia

Too tempting now?

Me

Somethinglike that.

Mia

Silver lining… You are single so you can fuck Max now. He’d bend you over right now if you said yes to him. Live a little and have fun!

“You look tense,” Max says to me. I glare at him and he raises an eyebrow. “You are a bratty little thing tonight.”

“No. Absolutely not. Don’t do that,” I say firmly.

“Do what, Nika?” he asks with a devious smile. I drop my feet to the floor and stand up. “Sit down.” His voice is oozing with raw dominance that makes my knees weak.

“Well, now I see why you act weird when I call you Nika,” Rowan says with a matching devious smile.

“Don’t let her fool you. She loves it,” Max grins.

“I’m going to run away from the both of you if you don’t stop fucking with my head,” I frown.

“You really wanna go there, Nika?” Max asks, narrowing his eyes. I shake my head and he smiles. “Good girl. What happened with Isaac?”

“I walked in on him fucking Harper last night. Me and Rowan got back early and I caught them in the act,” I say.

“Tell him about the bruises,” Rowan says.

“What bruises?” Max growls. He stands up from the armchair and moves closer. I get off the couch and move away from him. Maxwillactuallykill him. I joke that Mia will, but I do not doubt that this six-foot-five sexy lumberjack of a man will snap Isaac like a twig.

“Max. Stop. It’s fine,” I say, backing away.

“Where is it?” Max asks Rowan.
