Just as she was drifting off to sleep again, she heard Dalton say that she was going to be flown to the hospital in an Air Force helicopter. Tabby had never been in a helicopter before and had tried to stay awake so she could enjoy the experience, but exhaustion had won out.
When she’d next woken, she was already in a hospital bed hooked up to a drip and all the heart monitor stuff. Her men had been right by her side. Apparently the doctor had checked her over, declared that Dalton had done a fine job of repairing her leg, and said that she would be released the next day.
That had been nearly two weeks ago. Tabby was now back in her men’s house and was feeling stronger every day. Dalton had already removed the stitches from her thigh, and even though she still napped every afternoon, she was starting to get restless.
Tony Sullivan, the Elite Dragoons CO, had come to visit her and wish her a speedy recovery. Apparently her men had suspected a leak in Tony’s office but found out that her being taken from the streets of Miles City had just been a coincidence.
The Japanese underworld criminal sex slave ring was no more. All the people in Japan involved in the ring had been arrested, and the cells spread out around the United States had been taken down. The five women who had been kidnapped and shipped to Japan were now back home with their families. Thank God. Tabby hoped they would be able to get over what had happened to them.
Tabby was happy that no other blonde-haired, blue-eyed women would be abducted from the streets of America by the Japanese underworld criminals.
Now that everything was over, Tabby was hoping that her relationship with her men could move forward, but she still wasn’t sure how they really felt about her. Sure, she knew they cared for her, but she wanted them to love her the way she had fallen in love with them.
One of the men was with her at all times, and now that the Elite Dragoons were no longer spending their time defending the ranch, they were busy rebuilding. The main house had been so badly damaged that it had had to be stripped back to its foundations so it could be rebuilt.
Whit, Dalton, Hay, and Sara were currently using the guest bedroom in Ty and his brother’s house. May had gone over to stay with the Elite Dragons so she could visit her adopted grandbabies and apparently was enjoying every second she spent with the men, women, children, and her friend Martha.
Tabby looked up when Cal entered the living room. Luckily for them, the house only needed some new siding and plaster, which had already been replaced, as had the other two houses’.
Cal sat next to her and placed his arm around her shoulders. “How are you feeling, Tabby cat?”
“Frustrated.” Tabby sighed and snuggled into his body.
Cal leaned back and nudged her chin up. “What’s wrong?”
“I want to do more around here. I’m feeling much better and only have lingering tiredness in the afternoon. I’m starting to get bored.”
“Well, we can’t have that.” Cal smiled down at her, and then he kissed her lightly on the lips. “Fletch, Law, get in here.”
“What’s wrong?” Law skidded on the rug when he tried to stop and ended up on his knees in front of Tabby. “Are you hurting, baby?”
“I’m fine.” Tabby sighed again.
Fletch crouched down beside Law and frowned at her. “Do you want me to call Dalton to check you over?”
“No.”
Both men went to get up, but Cal held up his hand and halted them. “Stay right where you are. You’re both in the perfect position.”
Tabby had no idea what Cal was talking about, but when she saw slow smiles spread across Law and Fletcher’s faces, she knew something was up.
“What are you—”
Cal placed a finger over her lips. “Shh, Tabby cat. We have some things to say and don’t want you interrupting until we’re done. Okay?”
Tabby nodded her head.
Cal cleared his throat, looked at his brothers, and then back to her again. Was he nervous? When she looked at Fletch and Law, they looked kind of scared, too. What are they nervous about? Do they want me to leave and don’t know how to ask me to go? Oh God, please no!
“We have never been so scared than when we nearly lost you, Tabitha. My heart nearly stopped beating at the same moment yours did. I don’t want to ever have to go through something like that again.”
Tabby nodded again but kept her mouth shut. She wasn’t sure where Cal was going and didn’t want to say anything until he’d said what he wanted to say.
“The moment I saw you curled up on the floor at the clinic in Frenda, Algeria, I knew you were special,” Law said and glanced at Fletcher.
Fletcher placed his hands on her knees and rubbed them up and down her legs, and even though she no longer had stitches, he made sure his hand didn’t go anywhere near her scar.
“I couldn’t bear to live without you by my side, love. My life wouldn’t be worth living.”
Did he just say what I think he said? Are these three hunky, handsome, muscular men trying to tell me that they care for me?
Cal cleared his throat again, bringing her gaze back to him. He removed his arm from around her shoulders and then slid to his knee before her.
He placed his hand over the top of hers, and she felt the heat of his and Law’s touch searing into her skin. Having her hand sandwiched between the two of theirs sent all sorts of erotic images slamming into her brain. Her breathing escalated. Her breasts swelled and her areolas ruched while her nipples hardened. Moisture formed between her legs and her pussy clenched, releasing cream onto her swelling labial lips as her clit began to throb along with the rapid beat of her heart.
“Tabby cat, what we’re trying to say is that we love you and want you to be with us always.” Cal looked at Fletcher and then Law before meeting her gaze again.
Law rubbed her thigh to draw her attention. “We’ve been waiting for you for what seems like forever, baby.”
“And now that you’re here with us, we don’t want to let you go,” Fletch said.
Tabby swallowed audibly. Her throat was so constricted with emotion she could barely breathe, let alone form any words. Her heart was so full it was near to bursting. The love she felt for these three men consumed her mind, body, and soul.
“Tabitha Carey, will you marry us?” Cal, Law, and Fletcher asked at the same time.
Tabby couldn’t contain her sob of emotion or her tears of joy. They ran freely from her eyes, and she was shaking she was so happy. She’d never felt such elation or love, and now that she knew that they loved her in return, she didn’t have to hide how she felt anymore. She tilted her head back and drew in a deep, ragged breath as she tried to get herself back under control. When she thought she may just be able to speak coherently, she lowered her head and looked at each of her men.
She couldn’t believe how tensely they held themselves. Their jaws were clenched, and she could see the muscles in the sides of their faces flexing as they ground their teeth together. Their faces looked so tight, and when she looked into each of their gazes, she could see the uncertainty in their depths as they awaited her answer.
Finally she let the smile she had been holding back form on her lips and gave free reign to the wonderful, euphoric emotions whirring inside her.
“I love you all so much. I would be honored to marry you all.”
“Thank God,” Cal muttered, and then he released her hand. He shoved his brothers aside, hooked an arm around her hips, and pulled her from the sofa and onto his lap. His arms enveloped her, and he pulled her flush against his big body.
Tabby wrapped her arms around his waist and clung to him.
More heat moved in on both sides, and she didn’t have to look up to know that Law and Fletcher had shifted until their bodies were touching her, too.
“You had me going there for a minute or two, love. I wasn’t sure you were going to say yes.” Law brushed the hair back from her face and stroked a finger down her cheek.
Fletcher kissed the side of her neck on he
r other side, and she shivered and giggled when his breath tickled her ear.
They both moved back when Cal shifted, eased her arms from around him, and maneuvered her on his lap until she was sitting upright and could see all of them. He clasped one of her hands, lifted it to his mouth, and kissed the back of it. When he lowered her hand again, she felt him slide a ring onto her finger.
Tabby looked down and gasped. The biggest sapphire she had ever seen was encased in claws and set in a white-gold band.
“Oh my God,” Tabby breathed out with awe. “That is the most beautiful ring I have ever seen.” She looked at Cal, then Law and Fletcher. “Thank you all so much. I will treasure it always.”
“It doesn’t hold a candle to you, Tabby cat. You are beautiful on the inside and out. I love you so very much, honey.” Cal leaned down and placed a soft kiss on her lips.
Tabby decided it was high time her men made love to her again, and this time she wanted all three of them inside of her. She palmed both of Cal’s cheeks in her hands and swiped her tongue across his lips before he could draw away again. He shuddered against her and lifted his mouth slightly away from hers.
“You’re playing with fire, kitten. I don’t know how much more enticement I can take from you.”
Tabby wiggled on his lap and sighed when she felt his erection against her ass and hip.
“I think that maybe it’s time that you made me burn again.” She leaned back so she could see Law and Fletcher, too. “I want you all so much. Dalton gave me the all clear days ago, but you three have ignored all of my signals.”
“We had to, love.” Fletcher ran a hand over her hair. “We wanted to make sure you were completely healed and had your strength back. We can be very demanding men, Tabby.”
“We like to take control in the bedroom, baby.” Law kissed her gently on the forehead. “There was no way in hell we were touching you while you were still recuperating.”
“God, Tabby. You nearly died,” Cal said through clenched teeth.
“Nearly, but I am very much alive, and the only thing that would make me feel any more alive than I am right now is if you all made love to me.” Tabby paused to take a deep breath and went for broke. She needed them so much her body was aching from the inside out. “All at the same time.”
Cal growled, threaded his fingers into her hair, and tipped her head back, and then he was kissing her. The kiss started out slow in a cajoling, coaxing meeting of lips, but when she groaned and wrapped her arms around his neck, he deepened the kiss.
His tongue pushed into her mouth and glided along hers. She clung to him as their tongues danced and dueled, fighting for control. But Cal was a hardened warrior and knew how to dominate her, and she acquiesced to his possession and gave herself over to him. Plus, he had much more experience in the intimate department than she did.
His kisses were hot, wild, and panty dampening, and she couldn’t get enough of him. She hung on to him even tighter when she felt him shift, and then she was being lifted up into his arms and cradled against his chest, but not once did their mouths disconnect.
She felt a gentle rocking motion and wondered for a fleeting moment where he was taking her, but when his tongue tickled the roof of her mouth, all thought fled. Tabby wanted to feel more of him—more of his heat and more of his love. She shifted her arms from around his neck and caressed over his muscular, rippling shoulders and down his back, but growled in frustration that she couldn’t feel his skin beneath her hands.
Just as she was about to try and shove her hands down under his collar to feel his hot skin, she was lowered down onto something soft, and her eyes snapped open when he moved away from her. Now that his body heat was gone, she shivered. It wasn’t that she was cold, no, definitely not cold at all. She liked feeling their heat and shivered from not having him or Law and Fletcher close to her. But then she shuddered when she saw the hunger and love in their eyes. She needed so much, and only these three could appease the interminable ache inside her.
Cal moved around the side of the bed and stood next to Fletcher. Law was standing at Fletcher’s side. She shivered again as their gazes moved over her body, and when their eyes stopped at her breasts, they hardened even more. When their perusal of her stopped at her pussy, goose bumps erupted over her skin and cream dripped out onto her already soaked panties.
Law broke the sexual trance they all seemed to be under by crossing his arms, grabbing the hem of his T-shirt, and pulling it up and off over his head. Cal and Fletcher immediately followed suit, and the three men shucked their clothes quicker than she could take her next breath.
Fletcher was the first one to remove everything, and he crawled up on the bed with a predatory grace. Tabby was mesmerized by the way his hard cock and balls bobbed and swung between his legs. She couldn’t believe she had taken his penis inside her body without any pain. He was that big.
Fletch sat on his haunches between her thighs, wrapped his arms around her legs, and then pushed them up toward her body and out. She was spread wide open and on display, but she didn’t feel vulnerable or embarrassed. In fact, she felt downright seductive and embraced her femininity.
Tabby peeled her top up over her head and flung it aside. She was about to reach for the front clasp on her bra but didn’t get the chance. Cal and Law climbed on the bed on either side of her, and Law cupped her face, turning her head in his direction to kiss her voraciously.
Fletcher’s fingers worked at the fastenings on her jeans, and within moments the denim pants, as well as her panties, were being tugged down her legs and off over her ankles. Her bra was flicked open, and then the cups were being pushed aside. Cal sucked one of her nipples into his mouth while cupping and kneading the other breast and occasionally pinching the nipple.
She moaned and tried to thrust her hips up when Fletcher’s hot, moist breath wafted over her sensitive pussy but he had such a good grip on her upper thighs she could hardly move.
And then his mouth was there. His tongue licked from the pucker of her ass over the sensitive skin of her perineum, dipped into her creamy hole, and then swept up to her clit. She gasped and jerked when he laved the sensitive pearl and then moaned when he began to suck on it.
She was on sensation overload but loved everything they were doing to her and knew she would never have to be without them. Knowing that they loved her as much as she loved them was freeing, and she let go of all her control and gave herself up into their loving care.
Chapter Twelve
Tabby whimpered when Fletcher pushed a finger up into her pussy. Her whole body was on fire, and every nerve ending seemed to have come alive. Everywhere they touched, her body tingled and yearned for more. With each stroke of his fingers in and out of her cunt, Fletcher increased the pace until she was on the verge of climax, but when he withdrew his finger from her sheath, Tabby growled with frustration.
“Easy, baby.” Cal caressed up and down her belly as if trying to soothe her. “We need to prepare you before we can all make love to you at the same time.”
With an ease that still astounded her, Fletcher flipped her over onto her stomach and held her hips up as Law pushed a pillow beneath. Cal reached over into the nightstand and withdrew a tube of lube. Tabby shivered with nervous anticipation and hoped she liked having a cock shoved up her ass. Law leaned over and caressed up and down her back. Cal shifted on the bed until he was sitting on his haunches, level with her hips, and Fletcher moved back between her legs.
She tensed up when she heard the pop of the bottle, but then Law hunkered down and pressed his forehead to hers.
“Take nice, deep, even breaths, baby. Try and stay nice and relaxed. Okay?”
“Okay,” Tabby sighed and then did as Law suggested. She felt her muscles loosen again, and when hands began kneading the cheeks of her ass, she couldn’t help but wiggle a bit.
“A little cold, Tabby cat.” Cal’s voice sounded raspy and deeper than normal, and she knew he was just as horny as she was.
/> Tabby flinched when cold fingers began to massage her pucker, but then Law gripped a handful of her hair and began kissing her. His tongue pushed into her mouth, and she twirled and twined hers around his until she was breathless.
She moaned when the tip of a finger breached her ass and turned her head slightly away from Law’s mouth so she could gulp in some air. There was a slight burn and pinch as Fletcher’s finger pushed through her sphincter muscles, but once it was past that tight ring, pleasure assailed her. She’d never dreamed that having something in her ass would feel so good.
“How you doing, love?” Fletcher panted out his question, and the fact that he was as turned-on as her only made her hotter.
“Good,” she groaned.
“Does it feel good, kitten?” Cal’s voice cracked on the last word.
“God yes.” Tabby shifted her hips on the pillow, and then she pushed her ass back onto Fletcher’s finger.
“Another finger now, Tabby. You tell me if it gets too much or if I hurt you.”
“So good,” Tabby gasped as the burning got a little more intense, but she wanted to do this. She needed to feel connected to all her men on an emotional as well as a physical level. Her heart was still so full of love she felt like it was going to burst.
She rocked her hips in time with Fletcher’s stroking fingers and nearly cried out with frustration when he pulled them out. He drizzled more lube into the crack of her ass, and she sighed in relief when he pushed his fingers back into her. He must have added a third finger because she felt so much fuller than a moment ago.
“Jeezus, she’s tight,” Fletch rasped. “I can’t wait to get my cock into her ass.”
“More,” Tabby moaned.
“Just another couple of minutes, baby,” Law whispered into her ear. “Fletcher has to make sure you’re ready. We don’t ever want to hurt you.”
“You won’t. Please? I need you all now.” Tabby wasn’t ashamed that she was begging them. She felt like she was on the edge of climax, but she didn’t want to come until she had all her men inside her body. She wanted to give them pleasure, too.
