Page 119 of A Hurt So Good

“Is there ever enough alone time?”

“Yeah, there is. And when you have too much of it, you start to rethink shit.”

“Like what?”

“I don’t know what runs through that pretty little head of yours.” I smile up at him. Could my life be any more perfect?

“Well, if I’ve spent too much time alone, what do you want me to do?” War smiles at me, that dark and deadly smile of his. My heart leaps in my chest, and my breathing kicks up a notch. He leans down, biting into my shoulder, causing me to cry out from the pain before he runs his tongue over it to soothe it. Then he nips at my ear lobe and says, “Run. I want you to run, little bird.” Without thinking about it, I leap from the chair and take off running.

I run around the end of the pool and climb in the water before War ever makes it to me. He eyes me, his eyes dark and needy.

“Need me to protect you, baby?” Denz asks.

“I can handle him.”

“Oh yeah? Can you handle all three of us?” Harlon asks as War climbs in the water. I take the chance and look between all three of them as they come toward me. My heart fills with so much joy and love that I can barely comprehend it all. How did I find not one but three men to love me?

“I’ve been handling all three of you, haven’t I?” I tease as they surround me. Then, there are hands all over me. I can’t tell who is who as they all touch and tease me. Lips are on my neck, my lips, my shoulder.

“You handle us just fine, baby,” Denz whispers in my ear, causing me to shiver.

“Guess what we’re doing tonight?” Harlon asks me.

“What?”

“We’re going to fuck you so hard you can’t walk tomorrow. I hope you’ve been saving up your energy, little bird. Tonight, you’re ours.”
