Page 17 of What the Heart Wants (Desires of the Heart 1)

“Thanks, you don’t look so bad yourself,” I say with a blush.

Grayson takes me out to his truck. It was huge. It was not what I would have thought a billionaire would drive, but I can already tell that these men do what they want, when they want, and they don’t care what people think about them.

Grayson takes me out to a cabin that looks well kept. It’s overlooking a beautiful lake. It’s not overly big but, when he pulls up to the side of the house, he tells me to stay put.

I watch as he moves toward something. When light blasts on the house, I can’t help but gasp.

It’s a projector, and it’s obvious we are watching a movie.

He runs inside the house and comes back with a cooler.

When I glance at the bed of the truck when he walks the cooler back, I smile when I see a makeshift bed inside.

I can’t believe I didn’t see it earlier, but I guess I was too nervous to pay attention.

Grayson moves to my door to open it and help me down. I guess this is why he told me to dress casually.

“I can’t believe you did all this,” I say with a smile.

He shrugs. “Well, you wanted to do something I love to do, and I love movies. I mean we have a movie theatre in our house, but I thought this would be more intimate. With my partners home, you would probably be worrying about them feeling left out.”

I climb up and nod my head in understanding.

“I hope it’s not crossing any lines asking for individual dates from the four of you,” I say warily.

He chuckles slightly as we get ourselves comfortable.

“No, it’s not. It makes perfect sense. It’s hard to wrap your head around dating four men. It’s good that you want to get to know us separately.”

“I mean, life is short. Sure, I have travelled with my best friend, but I didn’t date that much. I guess I waited so long because I wanted it to be special, you know. I didn’t want to give my heart or body to just anyone. I don’t think I could do casual, so I didn’t bother trying,” I say rambling on.

He chuckles. “I understand what you mean, and we definitely love that you hadn’t put yourself out there, but it also wouldn’t have bothered us if you had.”

I chuckle as I nod my head. “I’m not sure what you guys see in me, but I’m going to count myself lucky and hope for the best,” I tell him honestly.

“You’re pretty special, and I hope that one day we can make you see that,” he tells me as he hands out the meal and snacks he had brought for our date as the movie starts.

All I do is smile back at him. What could I really say to that?

Grayson

I can’t help but glance back at Kyla during the movie. I just picked a movie that I had watched a dozen times because I wanted to spend time with her.

The look on her face when I look at her again, along with her shy smile, lets me know that I’m being obvious, but I can’t find it in myself to care.

I don’t understand how she can’t think she’s special. I know all of my men would agree that she is; even Levi who has been more skeptical about letting her into our lives after everything that happened with Bethany.

We all loved that woman something fierce, but she was taken away from us too soon.

Kyla is the second woman who has come into our lives that all of us are drawn to. When the four of us got together, we knew that we wanted a woman to complete us, but it wasn’t until Bethany came around that it worked out. Before that, we had taken turns picking a woman, and one or two of us would be into that woman, but it wasn’t until Bethany that all four of us agreed on the girl.

Kyla doesn’t look a thing like her. Bethany was blonde, curvy, and completely outgoing. Kyla has brown hair, is shy, and, well, she does have curves. I am loving how she wears those sexy as fuck skirts to the office everyday.

Kyla looks at me finally and I grin at her. “Okay, you are not watching the movie at all,” she says with a small chuckle.

I shake my head. “I have already seen it, plus I love watching your reactions to it,” I say.

I love the light blush that comes over her face at my words.
