Page 87 of Hate the Game
She just rolled her eyes. “You’re sure about this?”
“I love them.” I stood still for the first time since leaving the guys’ room. “Is that crazy? I love them and I want to try this…this crazy thing.”
“It’s not crazy. I already knew you loved them. No one mopes around for days like you did if they don’t care a whole lot more than you were willing to admit.” She pointed at her belly and lowered her voice so there was no chance her brother would hear her. “Don’t you think I get it, Vannah? I didn’t know them well, or really at all, but given the chance to try, I think I could, too.”
I hurried to her and hugged her tight. “Why does this feel like I’m moving out and never going to see you again?”
“Because I spread my hormones to you. You’ll come over tomorrow, right? And tell me everything about your night with Cole and the two Ryders?” She winked at me, knowing she was bothering her brother. “Go have fun. Just don’t have too much fun.”
I laughed when she pointed at her belly again and gave her one more tight hug. “I’ll be here. Wild bears couldn’t keep me away.”
Jax stuck his head inside and grinned at me. “We’ll try anyway.”
Blaire waved him away. “Get out of here. You’re stealing my best friend and I don’t like you much right now.”
Jax grew serious as he came into her room and walked close enough to gently squeeze her shoulder. “She’ll be here as soon as she wants to be. I don’t want to steal her from you, Poppins.”
Blaire’s eyes grew wide as she looked from him to me and then back to him. “What’s happening? Why are you being nice to me?”
He dropped his head and rubbed his chin. “I’ve been an asshole. I’m sorry. Maybe we can hang out?”
She was suspicious. “All three of us?”
“Sure. But just the two of us, also. I owe you a bigger apology and maybe an explanation. If you want it.”
“Fine. To all of it. But the second you look at me with an ounce of Dad’s judgment in your eyes, I’ll have Vannah bite your dick off.” She swallowed what I could tell was a wave of emotion and grabbed my hand to help pull her up. Then she hugged Jax tight. “I love you.”
He squeezed her back and kissed the side of her head. “Love you, too.”
I had to blink away tears. I also had to force down the lingering guilt over my own brothers. I owed them a call and some hard truths of my own. I just hoped they didn’t hate me when I told them everything.
“Okay, okay. Both of you, out of my room!” Blaire pushed Jax away and then gave me one more hug. “I hope you take your time on your article.”
I laughed as Jax grumbled but Blaire shut the door before he could turn that grumbling on her. He shook his head and grabbed my hand as he led me through the dorm. We passed a few groups of people who looked at our hands and then instantly started whispering. Jax just wrapped his arm around me and held me close.
By the time we got outside I was willing to bet the whole campus knew we’d been spotted holding hands. I tried not to imagine how the news would travel when they found out I was with Ryder and Cole, too.
“They’ll be scandalized for a few days but it’ll pass.” Jax must’ve read my mind. “Once they hear you screaming our names every night they’ll get it.”
I blushed and gently slapped his chest. “Never going to happen.”
“It’s going to happen, Sav. It’s going to happen often.” He pulled me to a stop in the middle of the sidewalk closest to his truck. Pinning me to his chest with his hands full of my ass, he smiled like a damn shark at me. “I’m going to love every fuckingsecond I spend inside you. I’ll savor the ones we spend alone but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t dying to see what you’re like with all of us in you.”
I was going to die from embarrassment. Or from drowning. The situation in my panties was getting dire. “All of you…in me?”
He bent down and whispered to me. “There are three of us.”
I nodded, confused. “Yeah…”
“And you have three perfect holes that need tending to.” He was so hard when he pressed into my stomach. “How do you think you’ll feel with the three of us fighting to make you love what we can do to you together? All three of us are going to be fucking you for the gold, Savannah. There’s not going to be an inch of you that hasn’t been worshipped when we’re done.”
I gripped his upper arms as I swayed. “Maybe I can write the paper first thing in the morning…”
He let out a dark laugh before pulling away and leading me to the truck. “Nope. You’re going to take the next two hours and fifteen minutes to write your heart out. Then you’re going to walk your sexy ass across the hall into our room and you’re going to find three men who love you waiting to fuck you stupid. So you have to work before the sex because afterwards your article would be shit.”
I hadn’t expected him to joke like he was when I could tell he was just as painfully tense as I was. I barked out a laugh and it maybe sounded a little hysterical because he hesitated after helping me into my seat.
“If you’re not ready-”
