“We don’t have to leave today,” Leather said, as he packed the insulation blankets she gave them into a bag. She gave them several new kits she had plus talked to them about the things she invented, minus letting them know she invented them. She didn’t want to scare them by informing the men that she was a multimillionaire. She also didn’t tell them about starting the company with Brandon, Skylar, and Paul, how they nearly got her arrested, and she was forced to leave the Marine Corps, or how she continued the business on her own and how Skylar still kept two percent of shares.
“So who is going on this trip with you?” Quantico asked her, standing there with his hands on his hips looking all serious.
She went to grab the empty box and put it on the counter. “Just a group of guys who usually tag along.”
“Guys?” Leather asked. Stone took her hand and pulled her into his arms. She ran her palms up his chest and held his gaze. He still smelled like her shampoo and soap after their showers this morning.
“There are three of them. Castle, Phoenix, and Sunny.”
Stone looked into her eyes and ran his palm along her ass.
“You’ve known them long?”
“Stone.” He tightened his hold, then nuzzled against her neck. He whispered into her ear.
“I’m a man who knows what men think. You’re going out of the country, camping out, doing dangerous adventures checking out this new equipment, and three weeks is a long fucking time, okay,” he said and kissed her neck. She squeezed him tight, ran her hands along his muscular back and then to his ass.
He pulled back and squinted at her. She smirked. “I can assure you that they aren’t interested in getting me into bed. This is business, we’ve done it dozens of times, and they’re usually trying to hook up with some local women, ones they’ve hooked up with before.”
“And you?” Leather asked, caressing her arm as Stone pulled back but didn’t release her.
“I am actually working. I have to log everything in, the equipment I used during the day, how it handled things, and send word to my negotiator, and connect with the people I have coordinating this. It’s a lot of work. I don’t approve every new product we get sent to us to try.”
“So it isn’t all fun and games, lying on the beach sipping tropical drinks all day,” Walker said to her.
“Well, we do some sun bathing, a little partying. It’s how I work on my tan for the winter,” she said and winked.
Stone pulled her close again.
“I didn’t see any tan lines on you.”
She stepped away and he pulled her back.
“Nude beaches. No bathing suits allowed,” she said.
“What?” Quantico raised his voice.
“Are you fucking kidding me?” Walker asked and they were all so pissed. She started laughing.
“You never did that before?” she asked.
“Fuck no.” Stone raised his voice. She couldn’t continue to tease them. They were so serious.
She grabbed Stone and cupped his cheeks and held his gaze. The man had fire in his eyes and his face was red.
“I’m teasing you. No skinny dipping, no nude beaches. Just wild crazy, adventures,” she said to him and kissed him on his lips. He lifted her up and placed her ass on the counter.
When she released his lips he shook his head. “That wasn’t fucking funny,” he said. She gave a sad face.
“I was trying to lighten the mood. You’re all being so serious. We just got this thing started. Don’t you think it’s a good thing to have some separation?”
“No,” Leather said.
“Definitely not, since we know it’s three guys and you out there in Costa Rica. Who are they? Are they even capable of protecting you?” Walker asked.
“Hello, I’m a Marine, remember, plus I have all these handy little survival skills and kits. We’ll be fine. We go to the same town, and know the trails, the zip lines, the hiking areas, and stay at the same resort we have been for years. There’s miles and miles of jungle, waterfalls, little sites and areas to truly test the equipment.”
“People get lost in Costa Rica,” Stone stated.
“The only way I could get lost is if I was dropped off in the middle of nowhere without any tools or at least a knife. I always have one on me or nearby me.”
Stone pulled her against his chest and lifted her up and placed her back onto her feet. When he let her go Walker pulled her close and kissed her next.
Smack.
She gasped when the palm landed on her ass and Walker released her to Leather.
“That’s for teasing us,” Leather said and she hugged him tight and then he kissed her.
They stared at her a moment and Quantico took her hand and brought it to his lips. He kissed her knuckles.
“I suppose calling us is out of the question?” he asked.
“Well, you’ll be camping and I don’t think there’s good reception where I’ll be staying. I usually go into town the first Saturday. There’s phone service there. I’ll call you.”
He stared at her. His expression hard, and cold. She swallowed.
“Listen, I know you’re worried. Don’t be. I can handle things and have done this dozens of times. I’m scheduled for a trip to Venezuela next month, Mexico in April. Traveling is what I have to do often.”
“Fucking great. What if something happens?” Quantico asked her.
She took a deep breath and exhaled.
She pulled back, ran her fingers through her hair and looked at him.
“Okay, see this?” She asked and showed them her watch. It looked like a calorie and step counter. “It’s got a tracking device inside of it. I wear it everywhere I go. I also have one on my backpack, I don’t go anywhere without. One in my sports bra when I remember to put it in,” she said and smirked.
“Are you kidding me?” Stone asked.
“No. It’s something I came up with after a bit of a situation in the Middle East two years ago. Anyway, no need to get into that story.”
“Jesus,” Leather said and exhaled.
“How are we supposed to get access to it if something does happen?” Quantico asked.
She looked at her computer. She wasn’t going to give them the password.
“Okay, write down your e-mail. After you go, I’ll send you a link you can use and a password to get in. It’s pretty self-explanatory. Let me show you.” She logged onto the computer and then went to the site.
“Okay, so what I do for every trip now is I put an itinerary up, and who is with me. Each of the men will have tracking devices, too, especially this time as we’re trying out this new one Sunny’s friend thought up, well, he’s using it. I’m sticking with what has always worked. Now log into here. I’ll give you a password.”
“What will it be?” Stone asked.
She looked at Leather, then Walker and Stone.
“How about rainstorm?”
“Rainstorm?” Walker asked.
“Sure, if it wasn’t for a rainstorm, the last twenty-four hours would have never happened,” she said and winked.
“Nice,” Leather whispered.
She stood up. “Okay, watch this red dot, and I’m going to move around so you see it’s moving with me.” She started walking and then went out of the room.
“Where am I now?” she asked. And then walked into the other room as they said where she was. When she walked deeper into the guest bedroom and turned around to ask aloud if they knew where she was, there stood Walker, pulling off his shirt, and undoing his pants.
“Walker?”
He closed the space between them, lifted her T-shirt up over her head, unclasped her bra and then shoved down her lounge pants. He wrapped an arm around her waist as he kissed her and brought her onto the bed.
She ran her fingers through his hair, and widened her thighs as he pulled from her mouth, licked and kissed a pathway down over her breast and belly to her cunt and latched onto her.
“Oh God, Walker. Walker,” she e
xclaimed and then saw the others coming into the room. They started to undress.
Walker lifted up, undid his pants and then stood up, stepped from his jeans then pulled her down to the edge of the bed.
“I’ll track you down anywhere, Kendra. I won’t need a tracking device. We’re one now. One,” he said to her then slid his cock into her pussy and thrust all the way in. She gasped, grabbed on to his shoulders until he pressed his hands over hers, brought them above her head and rocked into her.
“One more time, sweetie, so you don’t forget us, and in three weeks, you come back here and we’ll claim you our woman, together, understood?” Quantico said, joining them on the bed. She wanted that. Would look forward to it as she would miss them entirely too much.
“Understood,” she said and held Walker’s gaze as he made love to her one more time before she left for Costa Rica. His brothers would make love to her next, and she would make her decision on what to do when she returned. To let down her guard and give this ménage thing one more chance with four seasoned lovers, or put up the wall, ignore her desires and let the past rule her future, causing her to never love another man again out of fear of being hurt and betrayed? It was a big decision to make but as Walker thrust his cock into her pussy, kissed her neck and breasts while his brothers, his team looked on, waiting to claim her next, she already was pretty sure of her decision. She would make love to them together, allowing them full access to her body, her heart, and her soul. This would be it. If they failed her, she would remain alone forever.
Chapter Four
“He knows it was us that ripped him off, what the fuck can he do about it? As soon as he indicates where he is, he’s a dead man,” Paul stated, and then poured himself a drink of brandy.
Brandon leaned back into the chair.
“I told you this was going to work. I’m just glad we got that big ass fucking statue he adores so much. See how he likes not putting that in his fucking mansion in wherever the hell he’s living,” Brandon said.
Skylar was sitting on the couch when Isaac came to the door.
“Isaac, come have a drink. You did an awesome fucking job,” Paul told him, smiling, but Isaac wasn’t smiling, he looked upset.
“We have a potential problem,” Isaac said.
“What is it?” Brandon asked.
“Lupee Solos’s man, Partin, is in Repose, Texas.”
“What?” Brandon exclaimed and pulled out his cell phone.
“Where is Kendra? Does he know about Kendra? I thought by leaving her, separating all these years, he would—”
“The fucking statue and the hit on his most prized possessions. He knows we loved her, that we care about her still. The mother fucker,” Paul raged.
“She isn’t fucking answering. It’s going to voice mail,” Brandon told them.
“Isaac, get the jet ready to fly us there. It will be faster this way,” Paul said to him.
“I’m on it.”
“Shit, what if she’s there? We can’t warn her,” Brandon said and Skylar was on his cell phone.
“She is? When did she leave? A week. And when does she get back, Alice? Okay, thanks a bunch. Yes, good speaking to you, too,” Skylar said and exhaled. “She isn’t in Repose. She’s in Costa Rica with Castle, Phoenix, and Sunny.”
“We can call the resort she stays at. Leave a message for her to call us,” Brandon said.
“We still need to go to Repose. We can try to get Lupee’s guy Partin. Maybe get information from him, then take them all out,” Paul said.
“Let’s do it. We need this shit done. He’s going after Kendra and she won’t be ready. She had nothing to do with this but Lupee knows we care about her. Fuck, all of this, and she’s still in danger because of us. Fuck,” Brandon said and they hurried from the office.

“Are you kidding me? You need to pay attention and be ready for that shit. You almost got your damn head shot off, Hernandez. Get down and give me twenty, then hit the hills. Two miles and back down to do it again until you get it right and make it out alive!”
“Sir, yes, sir,” Hernandez yelled out then dropped and gave him twenty push-ups.
Stone cursed under his breath and Big John chuckled after the soldier ran toward the hills.
“What the hell has crawled up your ass?” Pisces asked Stone, chuckling then watching the other soldiers go through the course.
Stone didn’t say a word. He remained straight faced. Then they heard more yelling across the way and Walker pulled a soldier out of the mud and water hole by his jacket and dropped him onto the ground. He was cursing and yelling like crazy.
Big John laughed.
“Holy shit, are you all in pissed off moods?” Big John asked.
“I wonder if it has something to do with a sexy little blonde who took off for Costa Rica a week ago,” Rusty, one of Pisces’ team members, said and Big John whistled.
“You got something to tell us? Robbing the cradle, are ya? Maybe a meeting with Spartan coming up?” Big John teased and Pisces and Rusty laughed as Finlin, another member of Pisces’ team, came over.
Stone ignored them and they got the hint to leave them alone. Two hours later, after a shower and then a cold beer, he sat in the kitchen and listened to Leather slamming cabinets and Walker disappeared as usual. Quantico was working on something on the laptop and then staring at the screen.
“What are you doing?” Stone asked him.
“I set up the laptop with the site Kendra gave us,” he said and Stone remained still.
“You looking to see where she is?” Leather asked.
“Fuck no. That would be like stalking her,” he said and closed up the laptop.
Stone exhaled.
“One fucking week and look at us,” Leather said and finished cooking then placed the platter of chicken onto the table. He grabbed the other things, potatoes, salad, spinach and put them out.
“Heard you were in rare form today on the course,” Quantico said to Stone.
“What do you mean?”
“I mean you were tearing into some of the men big time. What’s the deal?”
“No fucking deal. They were fucking up. I’m training soldiers for war, not paint ball games,” he snapped. Quantico squinted at him.
“Let’s just eat,” Leather said and then called to Walker. They gathered around the table and Walker came in and went to the refrigerator.
“We all are being a bit snappy. I get it, but we need to keep our cool,” Quantico said.
“Really? How are we supposed to keep our cool?” Stone asked.
“Two more weeks and she’ll be back and we can work on building this relationship with her,” Quantico said.
“This sucks,” Walker said and sat down.
“We’re too old for this shit, Quantico. Too fucking set in our ways, and we know what we want at this point. Maybe she’s too fucking young?” Stone said to them.
Quantico finished chewing and then put down his fork.
“You saying you don’t have strong feelings for Kendra now that she’s not here and your dick isn’t buried deep in her pussy?” he asked straight out. It was like he was accusing him of just wanting the woman’s body. He shook his head.
“No. I want her. I miss her and I don’t think this whole idea of her going off on adventures in the fucking jungle with three men we don’t even know is acceptable. I’m pissed off, I’m jealous, and fucking horny, okay.”
They all chuckled.
“Fuck, you had to bring her body up, and how good making love to her was,” Walker said.
They mumbled.
“Two more fucking weeks. We’re grown men, not horny teenagers who just got their first taste of pussy. Let’s get our heads out of our asses,” Quantico said and took another bite of food.
They snickered. “I don’t know, as much pussy as we’ve had over the years, as many women as we had sex with, made love to, none compare to her,” Stone said to them.
“That’
s because she’s special. We’re willing to make a commitment to her. To follow through and take a chance,” Walker said.
“That’s what I’ve been thinking about. Cassidy. How we gave it our all, and she was young, cheated on us when she had our hearts in her hands, and wound up saying it was all fun but she wasn’t going to live that public life in a ménage relationship. It fucking hurt, and we haven’t made any commitment to any woman since,” Stone said.
“Ten fucking years is a long time. I think we’re ready,” Leather said to them.
“Yeah, but is Kendra?” Stone asked.
They were all quiet.
“She was hurt as badly if not worse than when Cassidy cheated on us, and got pregnant with that asshole she was fucking. Kendra was dating three men for even longer and they cheated on her, were her only lovers ever, betrayed her, and made her feel like some whore. We wouldn’t do that to her, and she wouldn’t hurt us,” Quantico said to them.
“How do we know, man?” Stone asked.
“We don’t. It’s a risk we have to take. A risk anyone takes in any relationship,” Walker said.
“We aren’t getting any younger. She’s a god damn sex symbol, and is set for life with her successful business,” Leather stated.
“We have pretty fucking hefty bank accounts ourselves, Leather. There won’t be issues there. The issues are going to be her willingness to let us in to learn to trust us. It will take time. Let’s focus on the things we can do with her when she returns,” Quantico said and Stone exhaled.
“Would have been a bit easier if we hadn’t made love to her so many fucking times,” Walker said.
“Says the man who decided to strip her naked five minutes before we were supposed to leave the house,” Stone said.
“Like you were complaining,” Walker replied.
“Fuck no,” Stone said and then took a slug of beer.
“None of us were, and all it cost was one less day of camping,” Quantico said then laughed.
