Page 12 of Nita's Redemption

“Anyone take notes while dumbass was talking back there?” Nita asked, shifting slightly so her head wasn’t staring directly at Abe’s flexing asscheeks. Damn, the male definitely had a nice rear end.

“I think I can say for all three of us that Colt is full of shit, and it’s not prohibitive to listen to a thing that comes out of his mouth. However, since I’ve seen both of these two in their birthday suits, and while they might not be as well-endowed as I, we all have good dicks,” Abe said.

“Um, Abe, aren’t you and Link twins?” Nita asked.

“Yeah, so?” he asked.

She rolled her eyes wondering how long it was going to take them to get to her trailer only to recognize the woods they were passing were on the opposite side of the park and closer to the trios trailers. “Are you taking me to you guys’ place?”

Tank grunted, but the others didn’t say a word. These males were going to learn her love language wasn’t made up of grunts and belly scratching.

“Rule number one, boys. You don’t just assume I am good with whatever you decide. Rule number two, you always ask me before you cart me off to your den of debauchery. I will not be another notch on your huge bedpost where you’ve fucked a long line of other females.” Her words came out more growl by the end, but thinking of all the females who’d traipsed in and out of their lives while she’d been a kid and then up on Olympus made her angrier than she’d expected to be. Had to be hormones.

“Whoa, Abe, hold up before she rips your head off, brother!” Link held his hands up, staring at Nita.

As they stopped moving Nita prepared to hop off of Abe’s shoulder, her anger probably irrational, yet she couldn’t control the rising feelings of... deception, mistrust, and dear goddess, she felt as if the three men had violated their bonds to her. What the fuck? They hadn’t even bonded to her yet.

“Guys, I think I need a minute to get myself together. I think it’s best that I go home and... I don’t know take a shower and breathe.”

“Fuck that. You look like you’re ready to kill all of us, and we need to know what the hell we did to you.” Link spoke in a low rumble, his eyes locked onto hers.

Nita used the distraction to launch herself off of Abe’s shoulder, ignoring all three males’ warning growls. They’d learn not to underestimate her real damn quick, or she’d leave them in the dust with their mouths open and their dicks in their hands, if they were lucky. She had zero intention of being the little female who needed the big strong males to protect her. Hell, she may have been weak when she was younger, but that little girl was dead.

“Hold it right there,” Nita said. She held her right hand in front of her, stopping the three males in their tracks. “I don’t know if I’ve given y’all the wrong impression of me or what, but clearly we have some shit to get straight before we go any further.”

“Oh, we are going further, mo go hálainn rós.” Abe placed his feet shoulder width apart, his eyes flared bright blue as he called her his beautiful rose. Goodness her insides fluttered at his sweet words.

“I may not be as good at the words as that one, but I can guarandamntee I’m every bit as good at listening and even better at cliterature.” Link winked before he grunted as Tank elbowed him in the gut.

“Do I want to know what that is?” Nita asked.

Two of her males gave emphatic ‘hell nos’ which made the need to hear Link’s explanation even more imperative. Her life was crazy so hearing him, probably the wildest of the bunch, would at least make her feel less... crazy. Maybe.

“Alright, let me hear it, Link.” She prayed whatever he said would not make her regret her choice about having him speak.

“Well, you know lots of people get fancy degrees with letters behind their names, yeah?” Link waited a beat or two while Nita and the others nodded in agreement before he took a deep breath. “I have a PhD in cliterature. Mind you, I didn’t go to any fancy schmancy school, and mind you, my love, it was research for when we found our Fated, which happens to be the greatest female ever created, you. So anyhoo, I’m a bona fide PhD in my field because I sure as shit got all As in female pleasure. I do not need to be told where my female’s clit or any other pleasure spot is. I’ll be glad to demonstrate if you’d like?” Link’s grin was all white teeth and male satisfaction.

Nita wanted to be affronted, but in truth she was excited. She was a damn hussy.

“Ah, I think she likes what you said, Link. Which just saved you from an ass whoopin,” Tank said. The other male had his hands in tight fists at his sides, letting Nita know he wasn’t joking. The last thing she wanted was to come between the three best friends.

ABE SNORTED, LIFTING his middle finger on his right hand at Tank, ensuring his friend knew he wasn’t scared of him or his twin. In a fight, the three of them were evenly matched, mainly because they knew one another’s strengths and weaknesses. Now their Fated was the one thing that could be used as leverage against them. Not that he thought for one minute Nita was going to be a liability. In fact, he was pretty fucking sure she was going to give them all a run for their money when it came to fighting, protecting, and Goddess willing, fucking. The last he had been waiting a lifetime for, finding the one female who would complete him. He’d always known that he’d probably be sharing a mate with his twin brother, and then when Tank came along, the male fit right in with him and Link as if he was meant to be a part of their lives, like a brother.

Tank turned his head toward Abe, a small grin popped across his lips. “I love you too, bro.”

Again, Abe flipped Tank off, but he too grinned.

“You two need a room for your bromance?” Nita asked.

Abe noticed Nita had been taking small shifts away from their group, clearly trying to put space between her and them. Silly female. She would learn there would be no getting away from any of them, ever. Sure they would give her space, but not the kind that allowed her to distance her from what they were meant to be. A mated foursome. She was the center to their souls. He and his twin and Tank would love no other. His soul reached for Nita’s, needing to feel the connection between mates. He and Link have been tied together since their conception. They were Monoamniotic twins, a rare type of monochorionic twins because they not only shared the same amniotic sac, they also shared a placenta. Only one percent of all pregnancies were like theirs had been. Their mother said they came out holding hands, with neither baby wanting to be separated even when they needed to be cleaned right after birth. Obviously they grew out of that borderline obsessive need, kind of. Link was still a stage five clinger sometimes.

“I don’t need no time alone with those fools.” Abe knew his voice was more growl as his wolf pushed forward, sensing their mate was near and needing to claim her. He was stunned at the amount of pressure he had to exert to push the beast back. A quick look at his twin and Tank and the same emotions were written all over their faces. Shit, they needed to get control, or they’d end up scaring, or worse, hurting Nita.

“Listen, I know that we, as in the four of us, have a connection. No, listen to me.” Nita held one slim hand up, stalling whatever the three of them were gonna say. “I feel the same and have for a while. My inner beasts have been yelling at me to go to the three of you for some time. It was, no it is an urge that I’ve been ignoring. Not that I don’t have feelings for all of you, but I need to know who I am before I become someone else. Does that make sense?”

Abe stared at their female, hating to see her eyes cloud with worry. When she rubbed her brow with one hand, trying to erase the frown lines that shouldn’t be there by talking about mating with them, he let out a deep breath. One of them needed to reassure her. Dammit.

“Mo go hálainn rós, while I wish you didn’t have that need, I understand, and I know my brothers do as well.” Tank and Link turned toward him, their shoulders stiff, but they too understood what she felt and agreed, albeit reluctantly.
