A Place to Call Home

by Dixie Lynn Dwyer

  As Chase hit a bump and she teetered a moment, she reached out and grabbed onto Fox’s thigh. Holy shit, he felt like stone. And as he looked down at her she looked away, his expression so hard, so fierce. She moved her hand but he grabbed it. She looked back up at him just as Chase pulled into a parking spot down by the park. They planned on walking through town.

  He popped off his seatbelt, then opened the door. He released her hand and she felt her heart racing, wondering what the hell that was all about. She got her answer as she slid down off the seat and Fox pulled her into his arms, slid his hand up under her hair and head, and kissed her. She heard the other truck door close, but then felt Fox wrap his arm around her waist and haul her closer. When the second set of hands landed on her hips and lips kissed her neck, she moaned into Fox’s mouth. He was lethal in his kisses, besides his good looks and dominant personality. Between him and Chase, she felt aroused, needy, and her pussy actually spasmed. She moaned again and then felt his hand cup her breast. She tightened up as Chase’s palm slid under her skirt to her hip and squeezed her there. They were in public, she nearly forgot. Hell, she was getting so used to the men breaking down her defenses that she wasn’t panicking.

  She started to pull back and slid her hand over Chase’s that was under her skirt as his fingertips stroked her panties along her groin. As Fox released her lips, he slid the pad of his thumb along her nipple. “Fox,” she said, and tried pushing back, but Chase was flush against her body, and she realized he was blocking anyone’s view from seeing their make-out session. Along with the open truck door.

  Fox cupped her cheek and held her gaze. “You taste as delicious as you look.” He pressed his lips to hers again and she thought he would continue like before, but then he released her lips and Chase turned her around, giving her no reprieve as he kissed her next. She turned into his embrace, and he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close as he plunged his tongue into her mouth. Then she felt Fox’s body press against hers. He used his palm to maneuver under her skirt and to the same spot Chase’s had been. He squeezed her hip. Stroked along her groin and then back to her ass where he squeezed the globe, and her pussy erupted. She moaned into Chase’s mouth, then realized that she just came and pulled back, pushing their hands off of her, and covered her face with her hands.

  “Holy fuck,” Fox said and wrapped her up in his arms. He kissed her neck, and then whispered into her ear, “That was so hot, so fucking perfect, baby. You let go and you felt. You trusted us.” He suckled against her neck.

  She leaned back against him, trying to catch her breath. Chase cupped her cheeks and stared into her eyes. He was breathing heavily. “We want you as our woman. We want to protect you, to take the pain away and be your guardians. Give us an answer today. Accept us, and our claim to you, Hannah.”

  She wanted to cry. She hated having them call her Hannah, but could she tell them her real name? Could she?

  “Let’s head to the café for lunch and join Kane and Culter. Please think about it, baby. Say yes,” Fox said, and kissed her neck one more time before he slid his hand to her hand and grasped it.

  She fixed her skirt as Chase closed the truck door then locked it. She looked around them. No one was even near the parking spot. Thank God, because that was pretty damn heavy. He was right. She was trusting them, accepting their protection, and they were breaking down the walls she had around her heart and her body. Maybe she could do this. Maybe she could tell them who she was, but not what she went through. Perhaps put it in the past and never look back?

  The second Kane saw the three of them walking down the street, he knew some progress was made between Fox, Chase, and Hannah. She was holding Fox’s hand and Chase had his hand at her back—Kane could see his fingers on her hip.

  “That is a sight,” Culter said, joining him outside on the sidewalk in front of the Cherry Hill Café. He smiled, and she stepped forward and hugged Kane as his brothers released her. They looked serious, but happy.

  “What’s this?” Culter asked, sliding his thumb along her neck.

  She stepped back and reached up. “What is it?”

  Culter smiled and Kane winked as Culter pulled her into his arms. “My brother’s handy work I see.” He then lowered down to kiss her lips. She didn’t even know she had a love bite on her neck. Kane chuckled. When she pulled back, she looked like her shy, sexy self. She reached up and rubbed her neck. “What is it?”

  “A little love bite,” Chase said, and suckled right over her neck as he wrapped his arm around her midsection tightly. They laughed as her eyes widened and she reprimanded him. Culter didn’t release her as Kane led them into the cafe.

  “Good afternoon, Sheriff. Ain’t this a surprise,” Molly Lucas said, greeting them hello and then giving a big smile to Hannah. They greeted them hello, as well as Molly’s husbands, Dan, Brett, and Louis, who yelled from the back kitchen. Locals were looking at them and Kane knew this would happen, and he hoped that Hannah would accept guardianship like the rules required. He really wanted her to, mostly because it would give them the power to protect her fully and push for spending more time together and eventually make the relationship more serious and official. He looked at her as she glanced at the menu, and then at his brothers who were looking at her, as well. She was the one. They finally found a woman they all cared for and could love. He just knew it, and it blew his mind. She was so young looking, yet had this maturity about her and an experienced look, yet classiness, like she could hold her own with the wealthy upper class. He didn’t know why he thought that. Maybe he was just trying to figure out who she was and what was in her past. Did a man hurt her? Abuse her? Was she running from the law? How bad was it really? His brothers were right, he needed answers, and sooner than later.

  They ordered some lunch and talked about plans for the rest of the day. The conversation ran smoothly as Culter talked about the classes he had this morning, and how Chase would be running the class tomorrow morning that Hannah was taking.

  “I get to see what other moves you have, sweetie,” Chase teased her.

  She squinted at him as he sat next to her. “I expect serious instruction, Chase. If you can’t do that, then I’ll need to make sure I at least have a partner who takes it seriously.

  He leaned closer and she jerked. Obviously Chase placed his hand on her thigh under the table. “They’ll be no other partners but myself, Culter, and Fox if he decides to join us. No other men will be rolling around on the mats with our woman. Got it?” he asked her. She stared at him, and Kane hid his smile as she nodded and then looked at Kane.

  “We’ll pick you up whenever you’re finished with work okay? It’s supposed to bad weather tonight. Heavy rains, and you know what that means,” he said to all of them.

  “Accidents, chaos, lots of calls to the department because people just don’t heed caution no matter what the news tells them in advance,” Culter said.

  “Exactly,” Kane replied.

  “Do you have to drive around in it or wait for calls to come in?” she asked.

  “Myself and a few deputies drive around a bit, make sure there’s no one stuck on the long road into town from Central Valley, then we park and just keep watch,” he told her, holding her gaze and staring at the way her blouse peeked open just enough for him to see the deep valley of her cleavage. The woman was well endowed and then some. She smelled good too, but that was interrupted by the smell of food as Molly brought over their lunch.

  “Well, be careful, Kane, she said, and it surprised him as he held her gaze and gave her a nod. It felt different to have a woman, to have Hannah, care like that for him. That protective, possessive meter went up a notch. He may just be following them back to her place for a little fooling around to hold him off until tonight.

  Athena was shaking as the men followed her up to her apartment after lunch. Even Kane and Culter came along in Kane’s patrol car. She knew she had allowed things to get a little wild with Chase and Fox in the parking lo
t before lunch, and she was shocked that she let them do so much, but she also felt like she could handle it. Plus, by the way women looked at her today, like she landed the hottest guys in town, it made her feel encouraged. As they entered her apartment, she turned to ask them if they wanted something to drink but Kane had a different idea. He wrapped her up in his arms and kissed her. She held onto him and kissed him back, and then he was lifting her up and carrying her to her bedroom. She pulled from his mouth. “Kane, I’m not ready for this.”

  He was breathing heavily. “I know you aren’t. We need a little taste, baby. We want you to get used to our touch.”

  “To our mouths,” Fox added.

  They were all in her bedroom and she gulped. “I don’t know how far I can let you go. I don’t know what my reaction will be,” she whispered.

  “Sweetie, it’s pretty easy to figure out that whatever happened to you was violent, and perhaps sexual in nature, and we’re willing to take our time, to show you that intimacy doesn’t have to hurt or be something you’re afraid of. When you accept our guardianship, it’s another show of you accepting us to protect you and make you happy,” Kane said to her.

  “I want that,” she replied.

  “Then don’t think about anything but learning our touch, absorbing our care for every inch of you. Can you try?” he asked.

  She inhaled and her shaky breath was definitely heard by them. Looking at them standing here in her bedroom, so sexy, so capable and authentic, she followed her gut. “I want to try.”

  Kane slowly laid her down on the bed. He pressed over her. Leaned on his fist by her side, and clutched her jaw. She stared up into those dark blue eyes. They were almost navy in color, and in uniform all sexy, bulky and capable. She couldn’t help but move her body as her pussy reacted. His thick thighs were wedged between her legs. He stroked her jaw. “Relax and just feel.”

  He lowered down to kiss her lips. He scattered those kisses along her jaw, then to her chin, and she tilted her head up, ready to give him better access to her body. The bed dipped on both sides. Fox on her right, Chase her left. Culter stood by Kane and watched, too.

  Her lips parted as Fox and Chase unbuttoned her blouse while Kane lowered down, and began to slide his palms up her thighs and under her skirt. She was shaking, so turned on right now, she could focus on nothing but their hands, their presence, and how safe she felt.

  “I don’t have a lot of time, but tonight will be different,” Kane said, and he pressed his hands to her hips and began to pull off her thong panties.

  “Kane.”

  “Shhh…only as far as you’re ready for. Just a little taste, a little bit of pleasure, before I head to work and let my brothers enjoy time with you, too.”

  He pulled them down and off of her, and then he lifted her top and began to kiss her bare belly.

  “Holy God, woman, you are fit and trim,” Kane said.

  “Now those are abs to be proud of,” Culter added from behind him.

  Then Fox and Chase leaned into her and started kissing her bare shoulder and lowering the camisole she wore. The pressed it down, and then her straps to her bra too, when she felt Kane’s mouth on her cunt. “Kane.”

  She lifted only for them to hold her down.

  “Let go and just feel.”

  “But I’m not ready to have sex with you.”

  “We know that. We want you to get used to our touch.”

  She moaned as Kane’s tongue slid deeper, swirled around her pussy and clit, then he tugged. He pulled her lower, so her ass and cunt were off the bed and she gasped as the sensations overwhelmed her. “Oh God. Oh, my God, Kane,”’ she said, and Chase and Fox pushed her bra down, and began to suckle her breasts.

  “Holy God she’s beautiful. Holy fuck,” Culter exclaimed. Fingers slid into her cunt and she cried out louder.

  “That’s it, baby. Let go now. You’re so fucking wet and tight. Give it to us. Let go and just come,” Kane said, and he thrust fingers faster, deeper as Chase and Fox suckled her breasts, tugged on her nipples and slid their palms along her bare belly nearly to her cunt. She cried out and came. She shook and then felt Kane’s mouth replace his fingers, and once again he was relentless. He pulled back, face red, lips wet.

  “Culter, then Chase, and Fox,” he ordered, and stood up, then pressed over her to kiss her lips. She tasted herself on him as she lifted, and felt Fox slide his hand behind her and unclip her bra.

  “Let’s get this off of you,” Chase said, and she let them. She actually let them pull off her top and her bra, and here she lay on a bed completely naked with four men she hardly knew, yet felt so close to, and she cared so much for that her heart actually began to feel things she thought she might never feel for real.

  “Holy Christ, she’s a goddess,” Culter said, and fell to his knees, then slid his hands up her body to her breast and suckled the tips one at a time. He trailed his mouth lower and lower then found her cunt. She reached out and grabbed for his head and thrust her hips upward as he plunged his tongue into her cunt in exploration.

  “Sweet Jesus, look at her. She’s ours,” Fox said, and he lowered down to kiss her, causing her to release Culter’s head as he lifted her thighs over his shoulders and went to town arousing her and making her continue to come. In and out, he thrust his fingers then replaced them with his mouth. All the while Kane stood behind him and watched, in uniform, looking dead serious and so damn sexy, she leaked more cream.

  “I can’t take it, Kane. You all drive me crazy,” she said, and then Culter lifted up.

  “Chase,” he said, and Chase got up off the bed as Culter changed positions, and now he was tasting her cream, fingering her cunt, and nipping the inside of her thigh.

  “Chase.” She gasped and thrust upward.

  “Easy, baby. You are incredibly responsive,” Culter said to her, and he kissed her lips. She reached over and held his head as Fox restrained her one arm and suckled that breast. He was tugging and then nipping her nipple, until she felt her body erupt once again.

  “My turn,” Fox said, and Chase pulled fingers and mouth from her cunt.

  “She’s so delicious. I’ll never get enough. Never,” Chase said, and he stood up and took Fox’s position. Fox stood between her legs. He lifted her thighs and ran his hands up and down them. When he pressed her heels to the edge of the bed, causing her to spread wider, cool air hit her ass and cunt and she gasped, but held his gaze.

  “Say you want us as your guardians. Accept us with the sheriff right here as a witness, too,” he said as he lowered down and nipped her left thigh, then the right thigh while holding her gaze.

  “Fox.” She moaned.

  “Say it and accept us,” he said, and lowered down, held her ankles to the edge of the bed, and nipped at her clit. She gasped and raised her hands, but Chase and Culter stopped her. They raised her arms above her head. Her breasts stood out, she was naked and at their power and control, and instead of freaking her out, it turned her on.

  He licked her cunt and then her asshole, shocking her. “Fox.” She moaned.

  “A nice, tight bud just waiting to be penetrated. Every inch of you will belong to us when we make love. When we officially claim you our woman. We’ll be bound forever, Hannah,” he said, and licked her from cunt to asshole, back and forth and driving her insane.

  “Do you accept us as your guardians, Hannah?” Kane asked her as Fox began to thrust fingers in and out of her cunt, and then a finger to her asshole, pressing into her there.

  “Oh God! It isn’t Hannah. My real name is Athena.”

  “What?” Kane asked, and Fox stopped, then pulled his fingers from her body as tears spilled from her eyes. “I need you to know I had to use a fake name. It’s Athena. Ask me using my real name.”

  “Holy fuck,” Chase said, and stroked her jaw. He held her gaze and tears fell. “Athena, that’s so fucking beautiful, like a goddess of our own. Holy Christ.” He pressed his mouth to hers and then she felt Fox slide a fin
ger against her cunt.
