In all the chaos, Angela and Ruby’s two other dads had arrived.
“I love you, too, baby,” Chris said, whispering the words against her temple.
“I shouldn’t have stayed home alone today,” she said, shaking her head. “I was so stupid.”
He didn’t say anything, but held her. Troy wrapped his arms around her once he was done in the ambulance.
“Honey,” Angela said, charging to her side. “Roger has a concussion and we’ve got to keep an eye on him over the next twenty-four hours. How are you?”
Ruby was pulled out of their embrace and held tightly. “I’m doing good.” The ambulance assistant walked over to Ruby and pulled her into the ambulance.
Troy and Chris stood with her parents as Ruby got seen to. The Sheriff and David took their statements and got through everything as quickly as possible. All the time, Chris’s eyes were on his woman.
“I love your daughter,” Chris said, turning to her parents. “And I want your permission to make her our wife.”
Angela gasped. Roger smiled. “You’ve got my blessings, boys.”
“That’s the bat to the head,” Darren said.
“These two boys are in love with Ruby. I’ve never seen her more happy than when she’s with them. They’re the boys for her,” Roger said.
“I’m happy,” Angela said.
One by one, Chris got their blessing to marry their daughter. Ruby climbed out of the ambulance, cursing.
“What’s the matter, love?” Troy asked.
“I’ve got a lot of bruising and I need to rest. She didn’t do any real damage.” Ruby went to them, wrapping her arms around each of them. “What did I miss?”
“We’re going to head on out,” Angela said. “You’ll call us if you need anything?”
“Of course, Mom.”
He watched Ruby say good-bye to her parents. When everyone left and they were alone, Chris picked Ruby up in his arms and carried her into their house.
The scents of cooking consumed him. “You’ve been cooking?”
She nodded. “I wanted to impress you guys. I’ve got nowhere else to go and I don’t want to go back home. I was wondering if you’ve got a spare room for me to stay with you,” she said.

Troy carried the three cups of hot coffee toward the dining room table. Chris was telling Ruby everything about their past, getting everything out in the open. Together, they talked about their old lives being the security detail for wealthy people, along with the humiliation from Sandra. They didn’t keep anything hidden from her.
“So, you were never in love with Sandra?” Ruby asked, taking the cup he offered.
“No, she wasn’t the woman for us,” Chris said, reaching out to her.
“I can’t believe she did that to you. It’s so selfish and sad.”
“Sandra believed she deserved everything in the world because she was rich and beautiful. We learned our lesson and left the country. She’d humiliated us, given us a bad name and there was no reason for us to stay behind,” Troy said. “Our future is here, in Stone Valley, with you.”
She smiled, taking hold of his hand.
“We’ve already asked your parents’ permission,” Chris said.
“What?”
Chris and Troy both got down on one knee, taking hold of each of her hands. “Ruby Monroe, I love you with all my heart. I want to spend the rest of my life showing you how much I love you. Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?” Troy asked.
Tears were once again shining in her eyes.
“Ruby, baby, I’m in love with you and I want to take care of you and have lots of babies together. I want a family with you and with Troy. We would give you everything. Would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?”
She looked at each of them. The tears spilled down her cheeks.
“Are there any more crazy exes who’ll try to come and kill me?” she asked.
“No.”
“You do realize today I almost died?”
“Which is why we don’t want to waste another moment,” Troy said. “We love you and we’ll take care of you and show you for the rest of our lives. This is our future. You’re our forever.”
Troy waited for her to answer. It felt like a lifetime before she jerked her head and shouted “yes.”
He pulled her to her feet and held her close. “I love you. I love you. I love you.” Troy spoke the words over and over again.
“I love you both so much, even after your crazy ex’s sister tried to kill me.” She reached for them both at the same time. “Make love to me. Share me. I really need to feel you both inside me at the same time.”
Carrying her upstairs, Troy laid her out on the bed. For the rest of the night, he and Chris made love to her body, sharing her the way their woman should be shared. Delilah hadn’t driven a wedge between them. In her own way, she’d brought them closer together. Troy held Ruby tight as he drove into her body. Their future was bright, perfect, and he couldn’t wait to get started on treating her like the angel she was.
Epilogue
Three weeks later
Ruby picked up the folder containing the picture of her wedding dress, the cake, and the flower display she was going to organize. She was hoping for a Christmas wedding, which gave her two more months to prepare.
“I’m so sorry, sir,” Lucy said. She was the new waitress at the Flippin’ Tasty. The young woman had gotten off a bus and asked for a job straight away. Bessie fell in love with the small, slender, blonde woman. She looked broken and in need of some loving. Ruby liked the girl instantly, even if she had burnt her husband’s cock by spilling coffee all over his pants.
“It’s fine. Please, stop trying to rub me down.”
Lucy’s face flamed. She stammered and left the table. The new girl was a replacement for Darla. Luke had moved Darla in with them and she wasn’t allowed to work. It seemed he’d gotten Darla pregnant again. From the look of her, across the table, Darla was not too happy with being pregnant again.
Still, Ruby wouldn’t push. It was up to her friend to open up to her.
“She’ll get the hang of it soon,” Tate said, coming back to replace the cloth and fill more cups with coffee. “You know how we all are when we start.”
Putting the folder back down, she pointed out the green bridesmaids’ dresses she was looking at.
“They’re beautiful,” Tessie said, gasping.
In the last three weeks, the gossip about what happened out at Chris and Troy’s ranch was rife. Everyone wanted to know what happened. Ruby, getting tired of all the secrecy, blurted it out in the center of the town square. No one asked anymore questions. Her house had been condemned. She couldn’t live there anymore, so she’d moved in with Chris and Troy. They were more than accommodating with her needs. Also, they moved into the master bedroom and every night, they made love to her. Ruby couldn’t complain. What woman would, when she was getting multiple orgasms every day? She was addicted to their touch.
“Lucy can come to our wedding, but she’s not carrying any drinks around me,” Chris said. “I like this appendage. I get a lot of use out of it and I intend to keep it. The last thing I need is to be out of bounds for the honeymoon.”
Ruby burst out laughing. She couldn’t believe how happy she was. Troy and Chris completed her and made her whole world shine around them. They’d agreed she was going to marry Chris. He was the older of the two friends by a month. She didn’t get their logic, but in the eyes of the church and law, she’d be married to Chris. The town knew she was taken by both Chris and Troy. Underneath the table, she felt Troy’s hands skimming up her leg. After lunch at the diner, she intended to go back to the Pleasure Palace with them. Her afternoon was going to be filled with more orgasms, some rough sex and a whole lot of loving with her two hunks.
She couldn’t complain with how her life had turned out at all.
