Page 5 of Seducing Serena

“Nothing’s wrong. Go back to sleep,” she whispered.

“Come back to bed, honey. It’s still dark outside,” he countered.

His tone was in the gray area between request and order. Depending on her response, it could go either way.

But she couldn’t go back to bed. If she did, she would toss and turn, which would wake up Noah and keep Ford from falling back to sleep. That was the last thing she wanted. It was their vacation, too, and they needed the extra rest and relaxation as much as she did.

“I can’t.” She sighed when Ford didn’t lay back down.

“Why not?”

“Because I’m not sleepy and I don’t want to keep you awake or wake up Noah. Go back to sleep. I’ll be fine.”

Instead of lying back, Ford got out of bed, walked to the bathroom and closed the door. Returning a few minutes later, he crossed to where she had gone back to reading.

“Hey,” she protested softly when he took her phone from her, closed the app and set the phone on the small table beside the chair.

“You’re coming back to bed. And if you want a hot bottom before you go back to sleep, I can provide that. But then Noah really will wake up, and then you’ll be in for double the punishment.”

Without another word, Ford picked her up and carried her bridal style across the room. Tossing back the covers, he set her on the mattress. “Scootch over.”

Serena sighed and shook her head.

“It’s too hot in the middle,” she admitted softly, looking up at one of the two men who held her heart, though she could never admit it to them. The last thing she wanted was to come between these two men. To her, they appeared to be the perfect couple. She refused to be the reason they broke up.

Ford looked thoughtful for a moment. He glanced at Noah, who remained sound asleep, before nodding. “Fine. You lie down here and go back to sleep. Noah can sleep in the middle for the rest of the night.”

Once she laid back and rolled to her side, he covered her up and tucked her in. She watched as he moved around the bed, lifted the covers, and poked at Noah. “Move over.”

“Huh, what’s going on?” Noah asked as he rolled to the middle of the bed. He didn’t even open his eyes, just rolled until his back was to her and there was room for Ford on his other side.

“Nothing’s going on. Go back to sleep.” Ford climbed into the bed and settled before he pulled the covers over himself. Then he looked over Noah’s shoulder at her. “Close your eyes and go back to sleep, Serena.”

Serena smiled as she rolled to her side. “Yes, Sir.”

A moment later, Noah’s arm slid around her middle, pulling her backward so her back was pressed against his chest.

She remained tense for a few minutes, afraid to move and wake Noah up. After a few minutes of listening to the two men breathe, her eyelids grew heavy and her body relaxed. Another few minutes and she followed Ford down into the black hole of sleep.

CHAPTER4

“You agree that for the next seven days Ford and Noah will be your Masters and Dominants, and you will be their submissive. That means you will follow their orders, let them make all the decisions, and take care of you,” Master Derek looked at Serena, who nodded without saying a word.

Noah was proud of their girl for agreeing so easily. He knew it wouldn’t be easy for her to give up her independence to them, especially in front of a witness. He also knew this week of submitting to them was what she, and they, needed. Later in the week, they would approach the discussion of becoming a permanent throuple, but for now he was content just to have her under their command.

Seducing her into their lives forever would take more than an after-breakfast meeting with Master Derek, but Noah knew he and Ford were up for the challenge.

“Words, sweetheart. Negotiations of this type require verbalization of confirmation or dissent.”

He watched as Serena dropped her head for a moment before lifting it. Taking a deep breath, she straightened her back and shoulders before answering.

“Yes, Master Derek, I agree. While we are here Master Noah and Master Ford will make all decisions for me and take care of me in any way they see fit.”

Master Derek nodded before looking at Ford, who sat beside Serena, and then to him where he stood behind their chairs. “And do you gentlemen agree to the conditions set forth in the negotiated contract? To protect, care for, and make decisions only in the best interests of both your submissive and yourselves?”

Noah nodded, but when Derek raised an eyebrow at him, he said, “I agree.”

“As do I,” Ford said a moment later.
