FORTY-THREE

REBECCA

Just when I didn’tthink anything could shock me...

Feeling the tension rise in the room, I gripped Bastien’s hand who could always steady me. “Let’s table that discussion.”

Bastien took me in his arms. “No. Not tabling it. Ending it. You are the legitimate ruler of our world. I understand...” He glanced at the others. “We understand what happened shook you up.”

“And remember, angel, you didn’t want to go into hiding.” Messina came up on the other side, and pressed into my back. “We forced you. Nothing to be ashamed of. When this is settled and we get back, we will completely revisit your protection.”

“Messina’s right.” Gian strode toward us. “The throne is yours to keep and our knees are still bent to you. We love you.”

Watching all my men react negatively to my suggested abdication felt so good. They loved me, worshipped me, wanted me as their queen. Even if some of them had legitimate claims to my title.

“So what is the next discussion?” Bastien asked me, stroking my cheek.

“Julian being part of what we have.” I braced for impact.

Bastien pinched his nose and said, “I honestly think that’s the conversation to be tabled. Until we find your hitman and understand where that threat is coming from.”

“He’s right,” Gian said, nodding. He added with an exhale, “But we have to respect what Rebecca wants. It’s taken us several weeks to get into a routine.”

“And you need me to find the hitman,” Julian said, strutting up to me. “Excuse me, Bastien.”

Julian wound his hand around my waist. “Since you all had a turn with her, do you mind if I spend some time with her?”

“Here,” Anthony said with a voice low and controlled. “You fuck her right here. In front of us. We need to know if you can handle that.”

Julian glanced around. “There’re two wicker chairs in here and the floor is slate. Am I fucking her on the cold floor?”

I rolled my eyes. “We don’t fuck, Julian. I mean, we do. But they make love to me. This isn’t a game.”

“I’m not playing a game either, gorgeous.” He kissed me. “I want you. And if you come with these thugs...”

“Thugs?” Bastien said.

“A figure of speech.”

“Yes, they’re with me,” I said proudly.

“Fuck her. Right now,” Anthony said.

For a man who’d gotten wildly mad at the idea of me, his assumed fiancé being naked in front of another man, he loved sharing me the most. That sparked the thought I’d had yesterday. My new fantasy.

“Can I make a suggestion?” I said, my heart pounding. “It looks like we’re staying here until Gian and Julian find my hitman.” If I wanted Julian with us, now was the time for us to bond.

“Christ, angel,” Anthony said. “You’re fucking blushing and your nipples are rock hard. I have no idea what this suggestion is, but fuck yeah.”

“Damn, you have me curious,” Julian said, licking his lips.

“Good.” I walked backward out of the solarium. “Come with me.”

Yes, pun...

“DOWN THERE?” JULIANasked, sounding stunned and staring into the crawl space beneath the floor in one of the servants’ rooms.

The one I hid in a couple of weeks ago.

When Sebastien had found me down there, he looked at me like a cornered animal he wanted to devour. I’d have thought they’d fulfill my wicked fantasy and screw me one by one down there. While the others watched from above. Waited their turn with me. They fucked me harder after having to wait and with more raw male power when they got their turn with me. Trying to outdo each other.

I knew just how much they loved me by how they were willing to wait. And watch.

But Sebastien had hauled me out of there. I wanted this one to go my way.

“Holy shit,” Anthony said, taking off his shoes. “Fucking hot, angel. Who goes first?”

I gave him a sexy smile. “You like to watch too much, so not you.” Swallowing, I glanced at Julian. “Jules? Are you ready to show my men how you satisfy me too?”

I slipped out of the maxi dress I’d put on to get coffee and soaked in the collected growls of pleasure. Julian changed, his back stiffened and his upper lip snarled in possession. Getting the fantasy moving, I climbed down the ladder into the crawl space.

A shadow crossed me and it covered my body making me disappear on the far wall covered in old fashioned Sanitas, rose bushes on a blush background. I turned around and Julian stood there naked with an erection like I’d not seen before.

The site of him, sculpted abs and angled pecs stilled me. So damn delicious. Thick biceps and curved forearms led down to strong hands and...

My heart jumped seeing dangling from his fingers was...

Rope.
