“I want all of you.”

“Good girl.” I bit down on her neck, lathing it with my tongue, glad that she had finally admitted that— crap.

She hadn’t said she wantedbothof us.

She’d said she wantedallof us.

Which meant me, Jayden… and Lucas.

Fuck.

I pulled back, and I saw that Jayden had registered what she said, too. We exchanged a glance as Tori opened her eyes and took an unsteady step to the side.

She wouldn’t meet our gazes, but there was a hint of a smile on her swollen lips as she smoothed out her shirt and pants. We’d left her pretty rumpled.

Her cheeks were red, her nipples poking against the fabric of her shirt—anyone within a hundred yards would be able to tell what she’d been up to.

Not that Jayden and I looked any better. My cock still ached and strained against my pants, but there was almost never anyone down here, so who the fuck cared.

“Guess we blew past the time limit,” Jayden remarked.

Tori nodded and slipped past me, hurrying along the rows of books. She wasn’t rushing away from us… she was eager to get tohim. Because now she’d admitted to us and to herself that she fucking wanted all three of us.

Like that could ever work out.

But I followed. Lucas was likely pissed—again. Mad that we’d gone over the time limit. That had been on all three of us, but I knew I’d get the blame.

I always did.

I paused to adjust my hard-on, not that it did much good, and then followed Tori down the empty aisle. She disappeared around the corner that led to our table.

But by the time Jayden and I reached that corner, she’d already reappeared. And she was no longer rocking that sweet freshly fucked look. Instead, her face was pale, her eyes wide.

The look of anguish on her face clued me in.

“Lucas left.”

TORI

“Um,Lucas, can I talk to you?”

The drive back from the library had been miserable. Jayden rode in the truck with Kyle and me because Lucas had been his ride. I was angry with myself the whole time, knowing that Lucas wouldn’t have left without telling us unless he’d been upset. So eventually, the other two stopped trying to talk to me.

When we got in, Lucas turned my way but didn’t meet my eyes. “It’s late. Why don’t you just go to bed?”

I’d finally found him sorting through stuff in the storage room of the basement, and I felt even worse. He’d been upset and didn’t even have a door to close behind him. Because he’d given me his bedroom.

He was the nicest guy I’d ever met, and I’d hurt him.

“Please? Just a few minutes.”

Lucas focused on the pile of stuff in front of him. But when he finally looked up at me, I saw in his eyes that he’d given in. “All right.”

I thought quickly. There was no private place to talk in this house. “Should we maybe go outside?” I didn’t know wherewe could go, though. I didn’t want to take him back to the hammock. It felt like that spot was just for me and Jayden.

But Lucas came through. “Let’s go sit in my car.”
