My entire body reacted to his words.

I gasped and leaned forward, clenching my thighs against the throbbing pressure that exploded into life at his words.

It took every ounce of willpower I possessed not to press his hand against that almost painful, urgent need between my legs. I stared down at our entwined fingers, the contrast of his strong, black fingers against my smaller white ones intensely, overwhelmingly, scorchingly hot.

Oh God. Sex with Rhys would be…

Fierce. Incredible.

But I had not a vision of my bare body entangled with just Rhys’s, but Rhys’s and Clayton’s. At the same time. I could almost feel it, my body between theirs, their hands on me, their mouths on—

The blaring sound of a horn brought me back to reality as Rhys nearly ran the car into the oncoming traffic.

He put his hand back on the steering wheel and shook his head hard, once, as though trying to shake away the effects of his own lust. He blew out a hard but shaky breath.

I lifted a trembling hand to my throat. “Did you…you felt that?”

He laughed. “I think the entire city felt it.”

“But…” I glanced into the backseat at Clayton, whose intense stare was full of fire and need and hunger. “What was it?”

“It was us,” Clayton answered.

I tried to swallow past the dryness in my throat, but couldn’t quite manage. “The three of us?”

“I think…” Rhys cleared his throat and then tried again. “I think we were all sending out some heavy lust signals at the same time, and they crashed into one another.” He glanced into the rearview. “You felt it, Clay?”

Clayton looked at me. “With every part of me.”

“If only you were free,” I whispered, because my longing was just that strong.

“Someday,” he murmured.

I turned back around and stared out at the world, then slid my hand toward Rhys.

He folded his fingers around mine once again, and none of us said another word until we reached Bay Town and the house he wanted me to see.

And as soon as I saw it, I knew it was the one.

I’d found my home.

But there was no way in hell I’d be able to afford it.
