Page 28 of Tangled Passion

Trey was the first to talk. He held out his hand. “It’s perfect, and you’re beautiful.”

She relaxed, took his hand, and let them lead her down the hall. They went a different way than she’d ever been. “Where are we going?”

“Our family room,” Trey said.

“It’s private and just for family,” Garrett told her.

Madelyn nodded but could feel her anxiety and desire start to rise. Would they want to have sex? Was she ready for it?

Trey led her through a door, and Garrett closed it behind them.

She looked around at the cozy room. It was large. One end had a TV and sectional that looked inviting. The other end held a pool table and other games. In the middle was a bar that was long enough for four stools. The colors were earth-toned and appealing.

“This is great.”

Garrett nodded. “This room is our savior. At night, when we’re exhausted, we come in here and chill and eat dinner.”

She nodded in understanding.

“We have our meals over here,” Trey said as he stood by the sofa.

She walked over to see a long sofa table in front of the seating. They would be able to relax, watch TV, and eat at the same time.

Garrett grinned. “Watch this.” He did something underthe table, and the top rose a foot and could be adjusted closer to them.

She’d seen this kind of table before, but in magazines or commercials. It would make eating easier. She grinned. “This is great, you guys.”

Trey moved her to the center so she’d have a man on each side of her. She had no idea if she’d be able to eat because her hands were shaking, but it smelled wonderful.

After she got comfortable, Garrett lifted the metal lid off her plate. The sight of roast beef, potatoes, and beans made her mouth water. In front of them were a basket of rolls, glasses of ice water, and bowls of delicious pudding.

“Can I get you something to drink, Baby?” Trey asked before he sat down.

She shook her head. “No. The water is fine. Thank you.”

The men turned on the news and watched while they ate. It was comfortable and helped to settle her nerves. Although it looked like they were concentrating on the TV, she could tell they both had their attention on her, but otherwise, they let her eat without talking.

When she was finished, she pushed her plate away. “God, I ate too much.”

The men grinned.

“I love Pearl’s roasts,” Trey said as he wiped his mouth with a napkin.

Garrett set down his beer and relaxed back against the cushion. “Do you want to save the dessert for later?”

Madelyn nodded and smiled. “I don’t have any room for it in my stomach right now.”

He nodded and pulled her back to rest against the cushion beside him, but he kept his arm on the back of the sofa.

Trey finished his meal before becoming comfortable beside her and sipping his bottle of beer. She jumped when hishand landed on her thigh. The heat from his skin seeped through her skirt, branding her. She hadn’t realized she’d been a bit chilled until she was between the two men, and the warmth from their bodies made her feel snug.

It didn’t take long for the temperature to rise as the desire built between them. She waited for one of them to talk or make a move because she had no idea what to do.

“We want to know if you feel anything for us?” Trey asked her.

She swallowed nervously and nodded. “Yes.”

“Garrett and I want you to consider staying here and becoming a part of our family.”
