“Morning. Do you have my dress so I can get out of your hair?” she asked with an attitude even she heard in her tone.
He squinted and then stopped buttoning his shirt, closed the space between them, making her take a retreating step back, but he grabbed the towel and her and pulled her against him. “We aren’t kicking you out. I have to go to work. The fair is today on the boardwalk and pier. Simon and Aqua will take you home to change, and then you guys will meet me there.” He stared into her eyes and then reached up and stroked her jaw and chin, tilting it up toward him.
She was shocked by his order, like she was supposed to just go to this fair with them because they said so. It would mean her friends knowing that she slept with them, and that would mean more people involved, more emotions and a connection. Her heart began to pound in her chest. She pulled away and wouldn’t look at him.
“I’m not sure I can make it. I have some things to do for work and calls to make.” She was putting up the walls. Even she knew it was obvious.
“Don’t do that. Don’t minimize last night and this morning.”
“What’s going on?” Aqua asked, coming into the room with her dress. She walked toward him.
“Nothing. Thanks, I’ll be a minute, and then we can go. You can drop me off at home.” She took the dress from him. She walked over toward the other side of the bed, her back toward them as she dropped the towel and reached for the dress. She got it up over her hips and then started to reach back for the one string to clip behind her neck when Caden’s hands covered hers.
“Let me,” he said, and then she felt his body against hers. The material of his uniform shirt and pants aroused her skin on her back. She felt his lips against her neck and shoulder.
“Don’t push us away. We’ll go slow if that’s what you need. We want you with us today. I need to see you with my brothers and know that last night meant something to you.”
“Meant something to all of us,” Aqua said, stepping in front of her, placing his hand on her hips, then sliding them up to cup her breasts.
“Aqua, please.”
Caden gripped her hair under her neck and pressed against her back. She felt his hard cock hit her spine.
“This wasn’t just sex, and we all know it. You’re panicked over it, and I don’t know why, but I’ll find out why when you share it with us. Tonight, after this fair, we’ll come over and spend some more time together.” Aqua released her to Caden, and she turned sideways.
“I told you that my life is crazy right now. The timing was bad.”
He shook his head.
“We’ll work it out. We aren’t letting you go, April. This is too fucking perfect.” He pressed his lips to hers, and she was overwhelmed with emotions she didn’t want to give in to. But it seemed like they were going to be as stubborn as she was being. When he released her lips, Aqua pulled her into his arms and kissed her next. She held on to his shoulders as he dipped her and slid his hand under her dress right to her ass. He stroked the crack with his finger, and she moaned into his mouth. They had each taken her there several times last night. They made love to her together, infused their mark on her together, and the depth of their connection was like nothing she ever felt before. When Aqua released her lips and removed his hand, Simon was there. His hands were on his hips, his eyebrows crinkled, his muscles bulging from the tight T-shirt in navy blue he wore with a pair of jeans.
“Come to me, April,” he commanded. She swallowed hard, glanced at Caden and Aqua, who were looking at her with firm expressions, and for some reason she was aroused, wet all over again.
“Someone needs more convincing to know we mean business,” Caden said.
Smack. She gasped and reached back as Caden smacked her ass, locked gazes with her, and winked. “I’ll see the three of you later,” he said and walked from the bedroom.
“The convincing starts now,” Aqua said and reached for her dress, lifted it from her body, and then pulled her into his arms and began to kiss her. He fell to the bed, and she kissed him back, turned on once again by their dominance and control.
Then she felt Simon behind her. He massaged her ass. “When I give you an order, you best do it without hesitation.” Smack.
Smack.
Smack.
He spanked her ass and then slid a finger into her cunt. She moaned into Aqua’s mouth.
“Someone needs step-by-step instructions,” he said.
She heard his zipper go down, and then Aqua released her lips. “We want you. Every fucking second, every minute, all the fucking time,” he told her, and she stared at him and felt herself get emotional. He squinted.
“This is new to me, Aqua. I don’t get involved with men,” she said.
“Well, you’re involved now, and things are changing, so accept it, and accept us. We won’t hurt you, baby. We promise,” Aqua said as he held her cheeks between his hands. She stared at him and then she felt the cool liquid press into her asshole.
“Simon.” She hissed.
“Convincing starts now.”
He pulled his fingers from her ass and replaced them with his cock. She moaned and lowered her head to Aqua’s chest as he caressed her hair and thrust his hips upward. They were at it again. Making love to her again. Possessing her body where no man had ever possessed before. With every stroke into her ass, and every grunt and moan from Simon, she felt her heart grow fonder for them, for this relationship and what it could turn into. Could she let go and entertain such a relationship and connection? Was her heart, her soul capable of it? She didn’t know and could no longer analyze her emotions. She wanted them inside of her together. The only thing that would make it perfect would be Caden inside her, too.
She lifted up as Aqua undid his pants and helped him push them down. Simon assisted, holding his cock in her ass, and his thick, muscular arm around her waist lifted her a moment as Aqua shoved them down. Then he was lying there naked, fisting his cock and licking his lips.
“Ride him, sweetheart. You’re ours, and we aren’t letting you go,” Simon said. She sunk down over Aqua’s cock, wanting him, needing to feel more of that sensation of being possessed, marked, and owned by them. They began to thrust in sync, destroying her resistance and once again making her feel things so deeply she felt tears in her eyes and nearly cried. She pulled it together, knowing she couldn’t make them ask more questions, but perhaps she could let them in a little more than she thought. With every stroke and every thrust, she fell deeper, and her aching heart opened up a little bit more.

“This is one hell of a house, April. My God, it’s stunning, and this view, wow,” Simon said as he and Aqua walked outside and looked toward the ocean. He was so impressed with her place, and it seemed she was well off. He felt a bit below her despite the fact that he and his brothers were well off, too. They lived in a house they had shared throughout their military careers. It had originally been an investment property their parents owned, and they bought from them. They owned other rentals in the area, as well, so they were doing pretty good financially, but it seemed their woman was wealthy. It surprised him. She was so down to earth, sweet, and quiet.
“Thank you. I have drinks and things in the refrigerator. Help yourselves while I freshen up and change.”
“We have time,” Aqua said to her, and she gave a soft smile before walking back into the house and toward her bedroom. Simon watched her. Her body was exceptional.
“Holy shit, bro, this place is exquisite. I think she’s really well off,” Aqua said and swallowed hard. His brother was obviously feeling just like Simon was.
“She’s so down to earth, though, and sweet. Maybe modest about her successes, and that’s why she’s so secretive,” Simon replied and began to look around the patio and the walkway that led down to the beach.
“I don’t know. You heard what Watson and the guys said about April helping Amelia with self-defense training and relaxation techniques,” Aqua added.
“So she
knows self-defense. You heard her last night with Ice. Her dad was a cop and a Marine. She’s prepared, and she’s a single woman living alone and travels a lot. She probably wants to be prepared just in case,” Simon added.
“You see this?” Aqua asked, moving the branches back from the stone walls that overlooked the beach below. Simon squinted and saw the camera.
“Damn, Fogerty was right. He said she had high-tech surveillance cameras installed by some friends.”
“Yeah, guy friends, and not sure if you noticed, but she has no tan lines,” Aqua pointed out. Simon felt jealous.
“We can’t ponder over anything she did with anyone before us,” Simon told him.
“We can tell her no more sunbathing in the nude unless one of us are with her,” Aqua said firmly.
His brother was definitely feeling possessive, and Simon couldn’t blame him. The woman rocked their world in one fucking night.
When April emerged, Simon’s heart pounded inside of his chest. She looked beautiful, dressed in a one-piece, slim-fitting tank dress in black, with heeled sandals and her hair pulled up in some fancy style with wisps of pieces falling here and there. She wore a heart pendant necklace, and the heart fell right at the dip of deep cleavage of her breasts. More was exposed as she bent down to fix the strap on her sandals.
“Damn, woman, maybe we should stay here and forget about the fair,” Aqua told her, closing the space between them and pulling her into his arms. The sight aroused Simon, of course, as well as how his brother’s palm slid over her ass and squeezed.
“Caden will be angry,” she said, and Aqua squeezed her ass and then nuzzled next to her neck.
“But you love his ass spankings. Bet he would give you one for not showing up,”
She closed her eyes, and Simon licked his lip and joined them. “She’ll get one anyway, and Caden will come up with a reason why,” he said, and Aqua chuckled as he stepped back, releasing her to Simon.
“Nice,” she replied and went to turn. Simon snagged her wrist, and she stopped to look at him.
“You’re stunning in everything you wear, but all I want to do is unwrap you.” He reached up, cupped her cheek, and then drew her closer so he could kiss her. He hugged her to him, and she hugged him back.
“We should go,” she said, and he exhaled.
“Fine,” he replied, and she pulled back and smiled.
“Let me just lock up,” she said and pulled out her cell phone, and they watched the sliders close up and then the shades pull halfway.
“Impressive. You have the security done professionally?” Aqua asked as they headed out of her home. When the door closed, she hit another button on her phone, and they heard the locks engage.
“Yes. I have many wealthy clients in various businesses. We worked out a deal,” she said, and Simon felt a bit jealous again. His thoughts were going in crazy directions. Was she part of the deal? Did she sleep with these clients? Fuck, he was losing his cool. He wasn’t used to this line of thinking at all.
Aqua opened the door, and Simon lifted her up into his arms to help her into the truck.
“I can get up into the truck alone, you know. My heels aren’t too high,” she said.
“Maybe I like picking you up and holding you close,” he said to her, and she exhaled.
“What? You don’t like it?” he asked, climbing in next to her. He closed the door, and Aqua began to drive.
“I’m just not used to it, that’s all. I take care of myself.” She crossed her legs.
Aqua placed his hand on her knee and squeezed it. “Times are changing, baby. No more fending for yourself. Oh, and no more laying out naked to sunbathe either,” he added, and Simon snickered.
“What?” she asked him as he drove down her driveway and then down the sandy road.
“You didn’t think we would notice you don’t have any tan lines?” Simon asked her.
She shrugged her shoulders. “No one can see me. I own six acres of property, and I face the ocean.”
Simon placed his hand on her thigh and eased up under her skirt. “Not anymore. With one of us nearby watching over you, never alone.”
“That’s rather presumptuous of you, Mr. Farmer,” she said to him.
“Not at all.”
“Well, I don’t know what types of women you’re used to, but I’m pretty independent, and I don’t take orders well.”
“Nothing a firm hand won’t resolve,” Aqua said, and she gasped.
“Or three Seals,” Simon added, and she shook her head and exhaled in frustration. He couldn’t help but to smile. Never in his life would he think he would meet a woman his brothers and he could share and feel so perfect. With April he wanted everything, and he wanted it instantly. April, on the other hand, was going to fight it tooth and nail, and as much as he wondered why and got a funny feeling of concern, he also felt aroused and ready to break down her resistance and claim her their woman. She was perfect.

“What do you have for me, Kulta?” Victoria asked over the phone.
“There was a little confusion in our first observations last night.”
“What do you mean?”
“The blonde isn’t with the agent. She left with the chief of police.”
“What?”
“Yeah, Waters left with a redhead later in the evening and was with her all night at her place. Those pictures I sent are of the redhead at the bar and then up against the car.”
“Shit.”
“Where is Waters now?”
“Still with the redhead.”
“What is his relationship with the blonde then?”
“Seems to be just friends. I had some men check out her place. It’s got some nice security. Pretty high-tech.”
“Well, from what our people found out initially, she works for a finance and banking agency in New York, travels often. I’m going to dig deeper. Make sure those men don’t get caught.”
“I pulled the team already. The place is accessible if and when the time comes.”
“Good. Now about the redhead, if he’s still with her into the afternoon, get me what you can on her, too. She may come in handy, as well.”
“You got it.”
She ended the call and then looked at Gorbin and Fulta.
“I want everything we can get on this blonde. The more I’m finding out, the more interesting she becomes. I have a feeling that Rosen may find her to be pretty appealing, as well. In fact, I may need to call him sooner than later and explain.”
“I thought you wanted to surprise him?” Gorbin asked.
“I did, and I’m still not sure. Wondering how she knows Mike so well.”
“Maybe from that bar everyone hangs out at, and the friends they keep.”
“Maybe. Dig deeper. I want anything you can get.”
“Got it.”

Caden kept looking at his watch. Where the hell were Simon, Aqua, and April? He couldn’t wait to see her. It was unnerving how much he liked her. He was talking to different people, pretending to be focused, when she came into sight. He literally stopped talking to Zayn Stelling.
“Ahhh, so that’s what your bad mood is about. You missed your woman,” Zayn said, and the fact that he picked up on his attitude as well as the way he said “your woman” got under Caden’s skin quickly. But then April locked gazes with him and headed over with Aqua and Simon.
“Hi,” she said to Zayn and kissed his cheek hello first, and it kind of angered Caden. He wanted her, waited for her to get here, but she was obviously trying to act like they hadn’t slept with her last night. He wanted everyone to know she was his and his brothers’, despite promising her to go slow.
“Good to see you. Have you been here long?” Zayn asked.
“A little while,” Simon said and shook Zayn’s hand.
“April,” Caden said. She stepped toward him, and he caressed along her hip to her ass and pulled her into his arms. He kissed her softly on the lips
then released them. “Thought you might not show,” he whispered.
Her feminine hands were against his chest, and she licked her lips.
“Not a chance with these two,” she replied and glanced at Simon.
He placed his hand on her shoulder and squeezed. “She’s a bit recalcitrant, Chief. Doesn’t take orders well at all,” he said. Her face went flushed, and Zayn chuckled.
“Congratulations, guys,” Zayn said, smiling, and then he walked away, leaving them alone.
“Caden, we talked about this.”
“Yeah, well, I missed you, and you look hot, and I want everyone to know you’re taken.” He pulled her close again and kissed her tenderly. She heard some whistles, and then he slowly released her and winked.
“Nice,” she said through clenched teeth.
“Just wait.” He winked, and she shook her head and exhaled.
* * * *
April found it difficult to ignore the pull to touch them or be close to them. She held on to Simon’s hand right now as they walked around and talked to people. They joined Kai and her men for lunch and then were talking about where to go next when her cell phone rang. She opened her purse and looked down, seeing the number and knowing it was Pierre.
“Can you please excuse me a minute? It’s work related, and I need to take the call. It’s overseas,” she said to Simon, and he nodded. She smiled at him and then the others and answered the call, walking away. A quick glance over her shoulder and Simon, Caden, and Aqua watched her, but then Kai and the men asked them something and they smiled and started talking.
“Hi.”
“Bad timing?” Pierre asked.
“I’m at the fair.”
“With the Seals?”
“And others.”
He chuckled.
“Well, something is going on. Not sure what yet.”
Her heart began to race. She glanced again at the men, but their backs were toward her. She remained close to the railing overlooking the beach, and no one was near her.
“Okay, I’m alone. Talk to me,” she said to him.
