Page 45 of Bought By Three Men

“Each letter you sent me had a second one. Just a few words and smeared with blood.” She interlaced her fingers.

“Peach, it wasn’t him. Bri gave the letters from Adam to CeCe and she placed them in your room.” Ethan grabbed her hand. “Had they been covered in blood, she would have given them to me.”

“You knew he was writing to me?” Ava pulled her hand away.

“You are mine to protect, of course, I knew.” He grabbed her hand again.

“Blood? What is going on?” I slammed the table.

“Someone sent her death threats. It’s being handled,” Ethan growled.

How many people wanted her dead? Judith was trying to get her executed, and my grandparents were trying to help. Now, this. What kind of a person was Ava? Most normal people didn’t have people after them. She had multiple. I had been positive I needed to protect her from being hung, but now I wasn’t so sure. What if she was the problem?

As the servers came out with our meal, I debated telling her about Judith. If she were the problem, a hanging would be for the best. It was better than my grandparents bleeding her out. Did Ava deserve to die? I didn’t know, maybe it wasn’t my place to interfere.

“So, how does this work?” Ava stared at the lobster on her plate.

“This marriage or the food?” I asked.

“Both.” Ava stabbed the lobster with a fork.

“Let me.” Ethan took the plate from her. He pulled the meat from the tail shell. Then he dipped a piece into the butter and brought it to her lips. She sucked on his finger as he put the food in her mouth. Ava moaned as she continued to suck on his finger.

Fuck, my dick hardened. Watching her suck Ethan’s finger was so hot. I wanted those lips around my cock. Shit, I would have taken watching her suck his cock. They continued as if I wasn’t there. He would feed her, and she would suck his finger, going deeper each time. If they didn’t stop, my dick was going to break my zipper.

I cleared my throat.

They both turned to look at me. Ava’s face was beat red when she realized they weren’t alone. “Sorry,” she mumbled.

“How would you like this to work?” I didn’t trust her, and I wasn’t sure what type of person she was, but we were going to have to get married. Unless my grandparents found proof she hacked the auction system.

“I would like to only be married to one person.” She smiled at Ethan.

If she didn’t want multiple husbands, why would she hack the system?

“Well, that’s not possible,” I snapped. “You have to follow the rules of the auction. So how do you want to do this?”

“What are my options?” She finished her wine, and a server refilled it.

“Stay here once a week so we can perform our duties or I can come to you.” My dick twitched. Fuck the thought of fucking her once a week excited me.

“So now I get the choice? In your letter, you said you would send for me.” Her words were bitter. She didn’t like me. That was fine, I didn’t like her either.

“You aren’t coming to our place. What do you think is gonna happen? We all fuck her at the same time?” Ethan’s words were laced with jealousy.

“Don’t you think that should be her decision?” I nodded toward Ava. “If she wants to sit on my face while you slide your cock inside her ass, that’s up to her.”

“No, 'cause you aren’t gonna fuck her.” Ethan glared.

“Or, if she wants to be bent over her bed while I ram my dick inside her and she sucks your cock, that’s her decision. Oh, and don’t forget, your ex-brother-in-law will be there too. Maybe we could all fuck each one of her tight holes. Would you like that, Ava? Do you want three men pleasing you at the same time? Is that why you hacked the auction system? Is that your fantasy?” My dick was on the verge of breaking through my pants. Yeah, I said it to piss off Ethan, but I loved the thought of it.

“She didn’t hack the system. And you aren’t fucking her!” A vein in his forehead bulged.

“If I don't, she dies. Do you want that?” I left out the part where she might die anyway. Just because he said she didn’t hack the system didn’t mean I believed him.

“Or I kill you and end this.” He stood.

“Excuse me. I’m right here! I entered the auction, and you two and Tristan bought me. So, like it or not, we all have to deal with this.” She placed her hand on Ethan’s arm. “I don’t like this either.”
