“Wha… you knew?”

“Of course I knew. We all knew,” I say. “You look at her the way I do. She melts for you too and I know she shares those feelings.”

“She loves you,” he says, shaking his head.

“Jude, if you don’t think she can be in love with two people, how are you in love with her?” I ask. “You loved Charlotte so much, dude. You were about to ask her to marry you. That is why you went on that ride to begin with.”

“Are you not mad at me?” he asks.

“No,” I say. “Also, did you forget there is a camera?” I ask, pointing to the camera in the corner of the room.

“Oh shit,” he says. “Talon, I—”

“I never thought I’d find myself hoping you’d fuck the shit out of my wife, but here we are,” I chuckle. “Look, man. Like I told the guys, if I have to share her with anyone, I’d want it to be you guys. I can’t promise it won’t be a struggle, but seeing that woman smile in her sleep as you laid here and comforted her… She deserves every ounce of love and affection that we can giveher. I need to know that if something happens to me, she will be okay… With her being targeted and knowing they’re going to try and traffick her… She needs us more than she will ever admit.”

“I don’t know if she feels the same,” he says.

“Knox suggested that we make her jealous. I’ll ask her if she has feelings for you to plant the idea so she will realize it. Then, you’ll bring a girl around. Push it as far as you can, even if that means throat fucking the chick… make her admit that she’d rather it be her. She will get jealous and possessive just like she does with me, and then she will break.”

“Then what?”

“Then I get to see my best friend fuck my wife,” I say. “I’ll get to help him fuck her. She like things rough and overwhelming so what’s better than both of us fucking her?”

“Won’t that hurt for her to have to watch me with another woman?”

“It will go as far as she lets it. I’ll communicate that all she has to do is admit her feelings and she could be that girl who’s getting absolutely wrecked. Once she feels safe enough to open up, she will. When she does, we then get to share her. She will sleep between us. We can even team up and fuck her awake. She loves that shit.”

“I’ll leave it up to you,” he says.

“Go lay with her. I want her to wake up the way I found you two. I wanna see her reaction,” I say. “Don’t hold back with her anymore. Let her lead and just keep in mind that I want to be cucked apparently.”

“Never thought I’d hear you say that,” he says with a smirk.

“I’m just coming to terms with it. If I ever get shitty, just keep doing what you are doing. I’ll get over it,” I say. “Go lay down.”

“Okay,” he sighs.

Chapter Twelve

Delaney

My eyes snap openwhen I hear Talon’s voice and fear sinks in when I feel Viper still stroking my hair. How long has he been laying here with me? Fuck, why is that so nice? “Laney,” Talon says simply. I get up so fast that it makes me dizzy and unstable. He grabs my shoulders and chuckles when I nearly lose my balance.

“Woah. I shouldn’t have jumped up like that,” I say, blinking away the haze.

“What’s wrong? Why did you jump up like that?” he asks.

“I… I just didn’t know who was touching me for a second,” I lie.

“Ah,” he says, not believing me. “Lay down and let me see your side.”

I nod but hesitate when Viper is still on the bed. He cocks his head to the side when I make eye contact with him, but I quickly avert my eyes. What the fuck is wrong with me? “What?” Viper asks.

“Nothing,” I say, making myself lie down on my side. I have no choice but to face him now that he’s moved. Talon pulls my shirt up to see my side and I freeze when Viper brushes his fingers over my skin.

“This is where she seems to be the most tender,” Viper says.

“Oh, you checked already?” Talon asks.
