“Fuck, Riley,” He moaned out, it echoed around the pool room. “You don’t have to.”
She licked and sucked him until he grabbed her hair, thrusting gently into her mouth. She repositioned so she could take him deep and he snarled when she was able to take all of him. Both the brothers were well endowed, even if they weren’t Zachary and she was quite proud of this achievement.
“I’m not going to last much longer, Riley,” he growled, pulling her off a little. “Where do you want it?”
“I want to swallow,” she went back down on him and he hissed, pumping up into her mouth a little harder. She held his thighs and he grunted, pushing all the way in her mouth again and cumming down her throat. She swallowed him, every drop and once he was done, he released her hair so she could move.
“That was fucking glorious,” Troy moaned from his spot in the hot tub. She blushed a little as Gabe sat up and stared at her, the heat in his eyes scorching her.
They all got comfortable back in the hot tub, cuddling in post-orgasm happiness. She couldn’t stop herself from purring, the rumble feeling good in her own chest.
“I love all your ink,” Gabe mumbled into her shoulder. “The stars up your right side are the perfect trail to kiss on. The cat on your wrist is adorable. The chest piece is beautiful.”
“I have one small tattoo on each ankle too,” she whispered.
“I saw,” Troy smiled. “What do they say? I haven’t had the chance to read them.”
“My right ankle has Keith Stern, my left has Lily Stern,” she shook her heard slowly. “I don’t really want to talk about those right now.”
“Alright, you don’t have to talk about anything. I’m glad you let us help you get away for a little while,” Gabe kissed her shoulder and they relaxed. Troy was tracing the stars on her side and she was closing her eyes slowly.
Fifteen minutes later, Brenton and Zachary walked in and stood over the hot tub looking down at them. In every bit of all their masculine glory.
Riley took a quick glance at both their faces, embarrassed to be found cuddled in between the leopard brothers. Neither looked upset. Brenton even looked a bit like he was trying to say ‘I told you so’.
“Have fun?” Brenton asked mildly, one of his eyebrows raised in question. Zachary was giving his lazy smile, his eyes a little glazed. Riley realized the entire room smell like sex thanks to her and the brothers. She fully blushed at that thought. Brenton only nodded as the brothers gave him sheepish smiles.
“You on birth control yet, babe?” Zachary growled softly, smiling down at her. She shook her head in a jerk. She’d been a little too tentative about going to the health clinic in town with their insurance.
“We didn’t-we-” she was stuttering which made Troy laughing while Gabe finished the statement she was trying.
“We just fooled around a little,” he grinned at the two massive guys looking down at them. Brenton nodded slowly, still looking at her. Zachary chuckled and shifted. She watched the giant white tiger jump into the pool and paddle around.
Brenton stepped into the hot tub, hissing at the sudden heat. Riley should have listened to them. They really didn’t care and her mind wrestled with that, taking leaps to try and have it make sense.
“Where’s Andrew? He didn’t want to hang out?” Troy had an arm thrown over Riley’s shoulder and she also found herself wondering out loud why sweet Andrew didn’t come in.
“He needed to go to the diner for some work. With Riley not on the schedule and the fact that he just fired that little brat yesterday, he’s officially under staffed.” Brenton shrugged. “He’ll put up a sign saying now hiring, leave a stack of applications and then he’ll be back.”
She nodded slowly. That’s right, he lost two employees in two days.
“You knew about Winter?” Riley looked at Brenton in confusion. She hadn’t mentioned her to anyone except Andrew once, to make a complaint about the girl’s behavior. Andrew had told her that he was well aware of Winter’s behavior and the way she talked.
Brenton reached out and stole her from Troy, who chuckled at the sight. He pulled her to him, gentle but firm. He pulled her in to his lap and smiled.
“Yes. Andrew told us about how she’d been trying to get him in a vulnerable position. She could have ruined his life,” he kissed her gently and she felt her breath catch. She looked back at Troy and Gabe, both smiling. Gabe was nice enough to give her a shrug.
“Um, Brenton?” She poked his shoulder and he looked back up to her, his molten gold eyes twinkling.
“Yes, Riley?” He leaned close to her.
“Andrew told me I should make you take me out to dinner first.” She smiled at him and he gripped her hips hard. “Sheriff said it too only a weke or so ago.”
“Did they take you out to dinner?” He jerked his head to the leopard brothers.
“No, but you seem more proper then them,” she tried for a nonchalant shrug and squealed when colder water dripped on her. Zachary was standing about them and she hadn’t even noticed him come up.
“Damn, she’s holding you to your stuck up shit, Brenton,” Zachary chuckled. “But I’m a bad boy, I’ll take her from you until you do what your supposed to.” He stepped into the hot tub, sitting next to her and Brenton.
Brenton growled at him and she went still.
“He’s fine, Riley,” Troy said to her from the other side. “He’s upset he missed out on the fun, he’s not really mad at anyone. Hopefully.”
“How did that happen?” Zachary looked over to the brothers, growling softly.
“We wanted to help her relax,” Gabe shrugged. “She deserved it after time she’s had and she needed to forget for a minute.”
“And you said yes?” Brenton whispered in her ear, moving her hair off her face.
“I-I’ve never been with t-two-two guys before and there wasn’t going to be any real sex so-” She was talking fast and stuttering. Brenton only smiled mildly at her, waiting for her finish. “I like to try new things and I’m a-about sex positivity and stuff. And it was good distraction f-f-from everything”
“Good,” he growled softly, moving her so she was straddling him, her knees on either side of his hips and her chest was pressed against his. She felt his erection press against her and she stared wide-eyed at him.
“I’m not on birth control yet, Brenton remember?” She swallowed hard and he groaned softly. “And there’s a bunch of people here.”
“We need to fix that,” he whispered into her neck.
God, what the hell were these guys doing to her? The twins made her feel like a queen when they gave her attention. Andrew made her feel like his best friend. Zachary was large, safe and bad all wrapped up in tattoos and leather. Brenton was dominance. He opened his mouth and she listened. She would ride him however and whenever he wanted if she wasn’t careful.
“I’m glad you like to try new things,” Zachary smirked at her, showing off that dimple. “Because Brenton and I are into some things you might have no experience with.”
“What?” She pulled back from Brenton a little as Troy and Gabe laughed.
“Brenton and Zachary are dominant everywhere, Riley,” Troy finally told her. “Especially in the bedroom. They might think Gabe and I are wild but… They are the definition of kinky.”
She looked back at Brenton, who was still smiling. One his hands roamed and grabbed her ass. She whimpered at the pressure he used. Oh. Oh fuck.
She pulled off him and sat down away from all of them. Brenton had nicely let her go without a complaint or fight.
“Let’s just cool off for a minute,” she was breathing heavily and she placed a hand over her chest. “This is going very fast.”
“Sorry, I just find it hard to not touch you,” Brenton leaned back in the hot tub, stretching his legs.
She loved it though. She loved when they put their hands on her and whispered in her ear. She loved how Brenton made her nearly cream her panties with a sexy shift of his hips
. She love the arrogance of Zachary and Brenton, the playfulness of Troy and Gabe. She needed Andrew back here. He was safe. Kind of. Safer then the rest of them.
They were all watching her, different levels of amusement. She stood up and got out.
“I’m going to go wash the chlorine out of my hair,” she mumbled, trotting away. As she left, she heard a conversation get started.
“I think she’s coming to terms with it,” Troy chuckled.
“I think she is,” Brenton growled after her.
RILEY
She found Andrew after her shower. He was walking in to the kitchen after getting home from the diner and she fell into him.
“Save me from them, they’re all horn dogs,” she groaned and Andrew laughed at her in shock, wrapping her in a hug. “Horn cats?”
“Well, darling, I can’t promise I’m much better but I’m at least a gentleman.” He kissed her cheek and she sighed happily. He was and she loved it. “What happened?”
“I may or may not have had a hot oral sex session with Troy and Gabe. Then Brenton and Zachary found us in the hot tub…” she looked away from him, suddenly thinking this wasn’t such a good idea to tell him.
“Yup, I can imagine how that went down,” Andrew chuckled. “Hot oral sex session, huh?” He held her close and licked her ear lobe. She gasped.
“Andrew!” She swatted his chest. “You’re supposed to be the good one! I wanted to see you because you’re nice and safe!”
“I promised to take you dinner first. That’s not good, it’s just polite.” He was fighting a grin, she could tell. “Maybe we should do a picnic instead, how does that sound? I could whip it up right now and we could run away for the afternoon. I know you weren’t feeling getting out but I can imagine being stuck in the house with all five of us can get overwhelming.”
She loved that idea. Just one on one time with her sweet Andrew. Her sweet Andrew. When did they become hers? She filed the thought away for another time. She’d only known them for a few weeks, they couldn’t be hers. She wanted them to be though.
“Sounds great,” she kissed his cheek. “Plus, I’m sure I’ll like whatever you make more then a fancy place in Denver any day.”
“Go get ready, I’ll make somethings up and let the others know I’m stealing you.”
She ran up to her guest room, excited that she could get out of the house full of sexy and horny boys. She laughed to herself. Men. They were all definitely men and they were hers in some weird way. They were there for her when she needed them most, it touched her heart in a way that made it ache and they proved that just last night.
She threw on black skinny jeans, a black tank top and then a royal blue long sleeve shirt. She grabbed a thicker jacket just in case it was too cold outside. She checked her hair and decided to just throw it in a ponytail. She liked wearing it down more but ponytails were convenient.
By the time she made it downstairs, Brenton was in the kitchen with Andrew. Andrew was placing containers in a bag and smiled at her when she walked in.
“I have a lot of leftovers we’re going to try and finish,” he told her as Brenton stood quietly to the side. She nodded and looked in the bag, seeing potato salad, some sandwiches, and a variety of fruits. She didn’t know what else he had in there.
“What are we going to drink?” She searched the bag but found nothing.
“These,” Andrew told her shortly. He was holding a case of waters that he normally kept in the fridge. He told nearly ten of them in the bag and put the rest back in the fridge. She nodded and finally looked to Brenton. He wore no expression.
“You okay over there?” She crossed her arms over her chest, looking him over.
“Yes, just wondering what kind of state you are going to be when he brings you back,” Brenton finally cracked a smile and she glared at him a little.
“Andrew would never do anything to put me back in a ‘state’,” she stuck her tongue out at Brenton and he just laughed at her. Andrew was even chuckling.
“You underestimate Andrew at your own risk then,” he was grinning and stepped up to her. “Have fun,” he kissed her softly and she felt her damn heart skip a beat. He left them to finish preparing without his dominant presence.
“Let’s get out of here,” Andrew whispered in her ear. She felt shivers run up and down her spine. Maybe she did underestimate him.
They both piled in the pickup truck and Andrew drove them out of town for nearly an hour before stopping at a hiking trail.
“It’s warm enough today for this,” he smiled over to her. “You grab the blankets, I’ll get the bag.”
She nodded, taking the two folded blankets Andrew grabbed at the last minute. It was only one in the afternoon and the sun was warm even if the air had a chill.
Andrew led her down the trail for about twenty minutes until they came up a nice open spot. He walked her five minutes off the trail into a little grove. It was gorgeous.
“How do you know this is here?” She looked around and saw a pretty stream nearby as well.
“I like to hike. I’ll come out here, shift and just trot around like a real cougar. I know all the good spots for the outdoorsy types.” Andrew put the bag down and took the blankets from her. One he spread out for them to sit on, the other staying folded and just going in the middle in case it was needed.
She fell back onto the blanket as Andrew pulled out food for them.
“Talk to me,” she commanded with an insolent snap of her fingers. She grinned at him and he chuckled.
“What would you like to talk about?”
“You. Tell me about you. This spot is some place you found. You enjoy coming out here and getting your cat on. You are a great cook and own my place of work. I want more.”
He handed her a sandwich and only stared at her for a long time. She started eating, waiting for him to say anything. He only opened a water and handed it to her as well. When he also started eating, she sighed.
“What’s your birthday?” She asked, pointing her sandwich at him.
“September tenth, I’ll be twenty-nine this next one.”
“Damn, you are a bit older then me,” she laughed. “I turn twenty-four in April.”
“That’s not so bad,” he chuckled. “I… I was born to a maid who worked at the Kingson Estate. It’s how I ended up growing up with Brenton.”
She opened and closed her mouth at that. “Your dad? Did he also work there?”
“No, he was never around. My mom said she met him when he was passing through and he was gone before she even knew she was pregnant.” She could see he was little uncomfortable but she was happy he was telling her.
“I’m sorry, I couldn’t imagine that,” she at least had her own father for most of her childhood. He only shrugged.
“Seeing others shifters’ dads, I didn’t think I was really missing much,” Andrew smiled at her. “If you want parent horror stories, talk to any of the other guys. I can’t tell you what they went through, but I’ll say it was some pretty fucked up shit.”
She felt a small crack in her heart. “Oh, that’s awful. But you all have each other now so…”
“We also have you now,” he kissed her cheek. “Pride for us is the family we never had or lost.”
“What happened to your mother?”
“Cancer, when I was five,” Andrew whispered. “Really rare in shifters but it still happens occasionally. It hit her hard and we didn’t have the money to help her a lot.”
“But you worked for the Kingson family, surely they helped. I mean, Brenton was only a child but-”
“Brenton’s dad could just hire another maid. In the end, the butler took me in, moved me to his suite and I grew up in the servants’ quarters, under everyone’s feet. Brenton and I became fast friends from that first week after my mom was gone.”
“Oh, Andrew…” She put her sandwich down and touched his cheek. His turned and kissed her palm.
“Eat, it’s not all so bad. I’ll keep goin
g.” He finished off his own sandwich and grabbed a couple small bowls and dished them both up some potato salad. “Well, everything happened to the guys’ parents and Brenton decided I was one of them. No one could convince Brenton to let me leave or me to go. Troy and Gabe are a couple years younger but they were terrors back then and only behaved for Brenton. Zachary was dealing with all sorts of problems and hid out a lot in the early years. But me?”
“I was the guy who kept the ‘guardians’ we were assigned from causing too much trouble. They had fired off all the staff, isolating us, so I did it all. They hated it. They had some fucked belief that all the rich kids should be getting on their knees to stay in their good graces. Truth was, they were after Brenton’s money, the Walker money too. But me and Zachary had none so we dealt with the guardians to protect the others over the years. It took Zachary a little while but he came around eventually.”
“Then, Brenton graduated college at like seventeen all on his own and got emancipated. He took legal control over Troy and Gabe. He sent all of us to college and we ditched Wild Junction.”
“Why did you all come back?” She had finished eating while he spoke and was now just laying on her back, watching Andrew.
“We got tired of the city. We missed home. This place was always great even if we had problems in the house. We liked the quiet and being away from the shifters. So we cut political ties and forced our way out of the mess. We always had hated it but needed to tolerate it to build a reputation as strong pride. Once we were done, we renovated the Estate to our tastes and came back.”
“That’s wild.” She shook her head. “You guys basically raised yourselves.”
“Yup,” Andrew laid back next her, looking at her. “We matured fast, except the brothers. They’ve always been a bit wild. Looking back, it wasn’t that bad for me. I think I had it easiest out of everyone.”
“You think so?”
“Definitely,” he leaned towards her and kissed her slowly. She melted against his lips as he rolled on her. His eyes looked like melted chocolate after the kiss.
