  “I like it,” Carl suddenly announced. “Proud of what you’ve done with the place.”

  Everyone relaxed.

  “I got into this business a long time ago because I liked animals,” Carl explained. It sounded like something he had rehearsed, and his tone was humble and sincere. “I wanted to take care of animals. That’s all I’ve ever wanted to do. It’s why I bought all the land surrounding here, ‘cause I wanted to expand. Let the animals roam free. Cost too much money to ever make happen, though. So I opened the zoo and started saving up.

  “But I lost sight of what mattered along the way. I forgot that it’s about the animals, and what’s best for them.” He nodded to me. “I’m glad someone came along and righted that wrong.”

  He came forward and stopped in front of David, Jake, and Anthony. There were tears in his eyes. “Boys. I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my life. I wasn’t the best father. Hell, I was damn-near close to the worst. I can see that now. Prison has given me a lot of time to realize the mistakes I’ve made, and how I can go about fixing them.” He stood up a little straighter. “I hope you’ll give me the chance to make things right when I get out in five years.”

  To my surprise, Jake hugged him without hesitation. “I don’t forgive you, dad. But when you get out, I’ll give you the chance to change my mind.”

  “That’s all I want,” Carl replied. “That’s all I want.”

  David and Anthony embraced him next. Jake came back and stood next to me with tears in his eyes. I put a hand on his back to comfort him.

  “Alright,” Carl said in an emotional voice. “I didn’t mean to come here and crash the party. Go on and cut the ribbon.”

  I held out the scissors. “You should cut it!”

  He hesitated. “Uh, I ain’t allowed to touch sharp objects or anything that can be used as a weapon…”

  The policeman who was his escort walked over to the edge of Big Caesar’s enclosure. “I’m going to admire this beautiful tiger for precisely twenty seconds. If I don’t see anything, then I can’t report anything.”

  He pointedly turned his back to us while watching Caesar.

  Carl grabbed the scissors from me, then held them open against the ribbon. He grinned at the crowd then snipped the scissors. The two ends of the ribbon drifted to the ground, and the visitors all clapped. Me most of all.

  “The Haines Wildlife Park is officially open!” I announced.

  Anthony and Jake jogged over to the other side of Caesar’s enclosure, where the two female Bengals watched with curiosity. The fencing of the new park was built along the edge of their enclosure, so all Jake and Anthony had to do was pull open the new gate connecting the two.

  The pair of tigers stalked toward the gate cautiously, as if it was a trap. One passed through the gate, then the other. They sniffed the ground and looked around. Then they snapped at each other and began playing. One of them ran off into the open field, and the other gave chase.

  “They look like they’re frolicking!” mom said excitedly.

  Another cheer went up among the group.

  “Thanks for coming out, everyone!” David announced to the group. “I’m sorry we don’t have much to show you.”

  “Those are the only two being released?” mom asked with confusion.

  “We can’t just set everyone loose all at once,” I explained. “The animals need time to acclimate. We’re releasing them in waves to make sure none of them fight or get too territorial.”

  “Glad to see you learned something with that education we paid for!” dad joked. “I would have turned them all loose. It would have been chaos.”

  We said goodbye to most of the visitors, including Carl. That goodbye was as emotional as his arrival had been. Many tears were shed, especially from me. Seeing my three men reconnecting with their father, even just for a few minutes, made my heart swell with happiness.

  Then we invited my parents back to the house for dinner. Anthony cooked lasagna, and the six of us gathered around the dining room table.

  “I’m on a low-carb diet,” David explained when someone asked why he was eating a portion without pasta. “It’s called the ketogenic diet.”

  “Keto!” dad said excitedly. “I have been considering that for weight loss. I’d love to pick your brain about it.”

  “Any time. I’ll give you my phone number.”

  “Didn’t you all have jobs before you came back here?” my mom asked. “What happened with that?”

  “I owned two Crossfit gyms up in Richmond,” David replied. “They needed an owner who was there in-person, so I sold them a few months ago.”

  “I bet you made quite the profit,” dad said. “Richmond is growing like crazy.”

  David grinned. “I did alright.”

  “I used to be a computer programmer,” Anthony chimed in. “I mean, I still am sort of. But I used to be, too. I’m only part time now. Twenty hours a week. So, yeah. That’s what I do when I’m not the park’s IT guy.”

  “What about you?” mom asked Jake. “I bet a stud-muffin like you had a fun job.”

  “Mom!”

  “Quiet, honey. I’m talking to Jake.”

  Jake gave me a wink. “I never really had a career. I took jobs here and there. Whatever I could find. I guess working here is the first steady job I’ve ever had.”

  “And you like it?” dad asked. “It’s not just the family business you got stuck with?”

  He laughed and shook his head. “It sure felt that way years ago. But now? This is what I want to do.” He smiled at me. “I’ve never been happier.”

  We laughed and shared stories around the table while we ate. Anthony brought out homemade peach cobbler for dessert.

  “You two should stay here tonight,” David offered. “We’ve cleaned out dad’s old room and turned it into a guest bedroom.”

  “No, that’s quite alright,” dad replied.

  “How many people can claim they’ve slept in Crazy Carl’s bedroom?” I said. “Come on. You can’t drive all the way back to Fredericksburg tonight.”

  “It’s fine, sweetie,” mom said. “We already booked a room close to the highway. The Sunshine Motel.”

  I chuckled. “That’s a good choice.” David and I shared a look.

  We said our goodbyes, and then I stood on the front porch and watched my parents drive away. Even though I had gone home to visit them half a dozen times in the past year, it made me happy that they had come down here today. To see the place where I would be spending the rest of my career.

  Much better than the first time they had surprised me by visiting this place.

  “Shame they didn’t stay,” Anthony said. “I would’ve made your mom an awesome omelet in the morning. Then she’d think I’m the best Haines son for her daughter.”

  Jake snorted. “There aren’t enough eggs in the world to convince her of that. You hear her call me stud-muffin?”

  “Clearly she felt sorry for you,” David added. “The handsomer Haines boys don’t need compliments.”

  Jake ignored him and turned to me. “There’s one good thing about your parents not staying here tonight.”

  “Oh? What’s that?”

  He arched an eyebrow. “We can be as loud as we want.”

  Before I could kiss him, he threw me over his shoulder and carried me upstairs. David and Anthony followed with hungry looks in their eyes. Jake led me into my bedroom at the end of the hall, which we had upgraded with a king-size bed and a down comforter that was so soft and luxurious it felt like making love on a cloud.

  The boys worked like a team taking my clothes off and discarding them, and then to please me. Jake buried his face in my pussy while Anthony and David kissed my chest and neck. Hitting all of my erogenous zones until I was a puddle of pleasure underneath their skilled hands and lips. They didn’t stop until I arched my back and moaned to the ceiling.

  Like Jake had said, we could be as loud as we wanted.

  I was still delirious with ecst
asy when Jake laid down on the bed next to me and pulled me on top of him. He was nude now, an oil painting of muscle and ink that I ran my hands over. Even after a year together I still loved touching his body. His dick was stiff and laying flat against his belly, so I pushed my pussy onto it and ground it back and forth, coating the underside in my juices until he was properly lubricated. Then I reached underneath me, took hold of it, and lowered myself onto him.

  “I love you,” he breathed, his dark eyes locked onto mine.

  “You’re just saying that because your cock is inside me.”

  A sly grin appeared. “That’s why I’m saying it now. But it’s true no matter when I say it.”

  I kissed him. “I love you too.”

  I arched my back and rode him gently, taking my time. Savoring how he felt inside of me. We weren’t in a hurry.

  David fiddled with the drawer next to the bed and I heard him open a bottle. We were pros at this by now, and after much experimenting we had discovered the best brand of lube. I rode Jake steadily, my anticipation rising.

  “Hurry,” I whispered. “I need you inside of me.”

  Jake inched us down to the edge of the bed, where David waited. His warm hands slid down my back, enjoying the feel of my body. Finally they rested on my ass, and his thumbs spread my cheeks apart.

  Double-penetrating was something that had taken a while to work up to. There was only so much space inside my lady-parts, and Jake’s massive cock left little room for anything else. But with lots of practice we had gotten to the point where I could handle it.

  And it was amazing.

  David’s cock pushed against my back door, then slid inside easily. Unlike normal anal sex, his cock now wedged against the other penis that was inside my pussy. Like a vice grip of manly love clenching my pussy from two sides.

  “Ohh,” I moaned as David filled my ass. Inch after inch pushed deeper inside until he was as far as he could go. His fingers tightened on my ass as he made his own gasping noises, which turned me on even more.

  The two of them fucked me like that, pumping in and out of my pussy and ass. They began by alternating, one sliding in while the other slid out, but as I got into it they changed their rhythms and started fucking me at the same time. Both cocks sliding out, then back in together. Brotherly teamwork at driving me to the edge of intense ecstasy.

  Anthony knelt on the bed to my right and I stroked his cock while being double-fucked. The four of us were a coordinated mass of nude body parts on the bed, pumping and kissing and fucking, and the noises we made were like those of the animals in the wildlife park. I stroked Anthony faster and faster, and then pulled him closer so I could suck him off. His fingers laced through my hair and pushed me up and down on his thick, hard cock.

  David and Jake were pumping furiously now, their skin smacking against my own as their cocks slammed into me like the pistons of a machine. Crashing into my pussy with thunderbolts of pleasure. I sucked and stroked Anthony faster, desperate to bring him to a climax with the others. David began groaning loudly first, and then Jake gripped my thighs and roared with pleasure as he pumped up into my pussy, and the two of them blew their loads simultaneously. Their pleasure drove me over the edge into my own ragged, violent orgasm, wave after wave crashing against my body like electricity causing every nerve and muscle to contract at once. Seconds later I felt Anthony’s grip on my hair tighten, and then his own seed shot into my mouth, rope after rope as he came down my throat while his brothers filled my pussy and ass with theirs, and for a few short seconds while the three of them filled me at the same time I wondered if I was in heaven.

  I woke up bright and early the next morning. Before David, I noted happily. Rather than head straight over to the park headquarters, I went to the kitchen and began adding ingredients to a mixing bowl. By the time the boys came wandering in I had a stack of waffles ready to be served.

  “Hey! I was going to make breakfast,” Anthony said.

  “I’m giving you the day off. After sucking the energy out of you last night, I figured I ought to rejuvenate you this morning.”

  He grinned and poured syrup over his waffles.

  “What, no bacon?” Jake asked.

  I poked him in the chest. “Don’t push your luck.”

  “I’m just saying. I think I earned myself some bacon last night.”

  I looked sideways at him and grinned. “Eh. It was okay.”

  “Now there’s a lie.” He kissed me on the cheek and took his plate.

  “Surprised you were the first up,” David said while hugging me from behind.

  I sighed back into his body. “I’m excited to get started on the day.”

  Anthony opened his laptop. “Want to see what they’re up to?”

  I gave a start. “You can see it on your laptop?”

  “Sure. When I setup this new laptop I installed some remote-connection software on it so I can connect directly to the machines in the headquarters…”

  I pushed him aside and took a look at the screen. It showed a top-down map of the park, with a red outline indicating where the boundaries were. Anthony explained that it used the Google Maps API, whatever that meant, but all I cared about was that I could zoom in on the two orange dots that I saw.

  “Chloe and Lily have set themselves up on the east field,” I said excitedly. “The vitals from the sensors look good. Everything’s normal.”

  Anthony pointed to the side. “Click on this filter.”

  I did, and suddenly the map was filled with hundreds of blue dots. They were spread evenly throughout the park, except for a wide circle around the two tigers.

  “That shows all the deer that are alive,” Anthony explained. “All the ones we chipped, at least. Now if you click this filter…”

  Suddenly a lighter-blue dot appeared on top of the two tigers.

  “…and you’ll see all the dead deer.”

  I gasped. “They caught one already!”

  “Looks like it.”

  I squealed with joy. That was the biggest concern about moving animals to the park: that they would struggle to hunt for themselves. Yet here we could see that they had already brought down a kill.

  “They’d better gorge themselves while they can,” David said around a mouthful of waffles. “They won’t be able to take down prey every day.”

  “Baby steps.” I clapped my hands. “Hurry up and eat! Let’s go!”

  Jake looked taken aback. “I just sat down. What’s the hurry?”

  “The sooner you finish, the sooner we can get to work! I want to take the Mule out there and see how much of the deer Chloe and Lily ate, and how they’re reacting to hunting for the first time. Are they sharing the kill, or fighting over it? Then we have to prepare the next wave of animals for integration, and monitor how they migrate, if they get along with each other or become too territorial…”

  David put down his fork and took me in his arms. “We’ve got plenty of time, Rachel. It’s still dark out. How about we enjoy the peaceful morning?”

  “Yeah!” Anthony chimed in with a hopeful smile. “I can’t remember the last time someone made me breakfast. I want to enjoy it.”

  “These waffles are pretty good,” Jake said. “Better than Anthony’s.”

  “Hey!”

  I beamed at the three of them. Not only was I beginning this new part of my life, I was doing it with three men who loved me. Who I loved too.

  It was the first day of the rest of my life with them. And I couldn’t wait to get started.

  Joey led me through the party like he was my jacked personal Sherpa, to the stairs leading to the second floor where the bedrooms were. It felt like we were leaving to go do something scandalous. The couple making out in the hall upstairs only exacerbated the effect.

  Corey’s room looked like it belonged to a horny teenage boy. Posters of female wrestlers and supermodels covered the walls and slanted ceiling. Scarlett Johansson stared at me lustily from her place above the bed, an arm draped across her ample cleavage.

  “Cool room, right?” Joey said without any hint of sarcasm.

  “Sure.”

  He sat on the edge of the bed. I was about to join him, then stopped myself. The two of us on the bed might seem like an invitation to other activities.

  A tingle of excitement ran through my body at the thought. Joey was dumb and vaguely annoying, but he was smoking hot. Was this how guys felt when they were attracted to ditsy cheerleaders?

  I sat in the rolling desk chair across from Joey instead, and pulled my book out of my backpack.

  “I’m glad you’re here, Teach,” Joey said. “I’m glad you came, I mean.”

  “Happy to help. Where’s your book?”

  He shrugged and gave me that same disarming smile. “Forgot it at home. Wouldn’t matter anyways because my dog kind of ate it.”

  I rolled my eyes. It was the same excuse he had given when he turned in his homework in class. But the grin was sexy enough to make me want to believe him. I wondered how much he had gotten away with in life because he was able to smile and charm his way through things.

  As if emphasizing the point, he pulled his sweatshirt over his head. “Hot in here,” he said as he tossed it on the other side of the bed. He wore a short-sleeved compression shirt underneath. It was black and stretched over his chest and arms like yoga pants over an Instagram model’s ass. His biceps hung out of the sleeves like skin-colored marble, chiseled by a sculptor. The compression shirt clung to him like another layer of skin, outlining the muscles of his chest and belly. His six-pack was tight and bulging, the way Ryan Gosling’s did in that movie where he took his shirt off and Emma Stone gawked. I felt like her right now even though Joey was still technically clothed.
