“You missed the entire back of your neck.” Knight squatted next to me with the sunscreen bottle in his hands, already squeezing a dollop into his hands. “Lift your hair.”

I looked up at him and sighed before doing as he said. “I’m sure I put enough on.”

He rubbed the lotion over my neck and under the collar of my shirt, digging his fingers into the tense muscles of my neck as he moved. “Thought you’d be gone today.”

I snorted but didn’t dare move. His hands were working magic on my neck. “Why? Because facing you three after last night would be too much for me? Hardly.”

He shifted closer, his inner knee brushing against my back. “So, you have no problem looking me in the eye after letting me come inside you last night? Unprotected, by the way.”

I glared at him. “I’m on the pill.”

“We didn’t know that last night and yet, we still didn’t think twice about feeding you our seed. What is it about you, Aggie, that got under our skin enough to have us losing our heads like that?”

I shrugged his hands off my neck and stood up. I didn’t like the direction of the conversation or even having the conversation. I put my hands on my hips and stared down at him. It was a nice change, but even with him squatting, our height difference wasn’t drastic. “I hardly believe that you three don’t regularly do that. Which makes me think I should get tested.”

He slowly stood up and ran his knuckles over my jaw. “Why do I feel like the truth scares you more than the idea of needing to be tested?”

I tilted my chin higher and narrowed my eyes. “Don’t you have something to do?”

Nodding back at a laptop on top of the closest patio table, he winked. “I’ll be working from home for the next few days.”

Feeling truly shaken, I backed away from him and would’ve tumbled into the pool if he hadn’t been there to grab me. “Shit!”

He tugged me against his chest and grunted. “Such a naughty mouth, Aggie.”

I twisted out of his arms and walked to the end of the pool, needing a moment to catch my breath. I wanted to strangle and ride the man all at the same time. It nagged at my brain that I couldn’t put him in a category for sure. I liked solving problems and it felt like Knight wasn’t someone I’d be able to categorize easily. Friend or foe, I wasn’t sure, and that ate at me.

“I got my vest on, Aggie!”

I turned to see Gracie hurrying towards me with her life vest on backwards. I could see by the grin on her face that she was being silly on purpose. “I guess we should toss you in and see if it works, huh?”

She laughed and ran from me as I chased after her, desperate to get my mind off Knight. In the soft grass of the yard, I wasn’t worried about us falling and hurting ourselves, so I played with her for a while like that. We ran back and forth in the yard until we were both breathing hard and laughing. Only then did she let me fix her vest.

“Let’s jump in together!” She grabbed my hand and tugged me towards the deep end. “Please!”

“Okay, okay!” I stood at the edge of the pool with her and grinned down at her. “Last one in is a rotten egg!”

***Knight***

Mycomputeralertedmeto an incoming video call from Zander and I answered it with the tap of a key without taking my eyes off Aggie. The T-shirt she wore over her bra and panties was suctioned to her body and I’d been watching her bounce around in the pool for half an hour with a hard-on that only softened when Zander’s voice filled my ears through my ear pods.

“Where are you?” His voice was full of irritation and I knew the source immediately. “You’re watching her, aren’t you?”

I smiled and snapped a quick picture to send to him. I heard his phone buzz and then listened as he swore. “Yep.”

“Fuck.” He was silent for a minute and then he groaned. “Security footage is better than your phone. What’s that say about your piece of shit phone?”

I looked up at the unobtrusive security camera overhead and shrugged. “Says that I had a very good system installed.”

“Shit. You haven’t done anything, have you?” The intercom in his office buzzed and his assistant said something I didn’t catch. “Give me ten minutes.”

I sighed as Aggie climbed out of the pool and immediately wrapped a towel around her body. “Damn.”

“Don’t expect me to feel sorry for you, asshole. I’m working while you’re drooling over the nanny. The nanny we fucked and thought would quit, by the way. Seems getting fucked just gave her more attitude, though.” Sounding truly disgruntled, Zander sighed. “You should’ve seen Kyrin’s face when I told him she was still here, all smiles.”

Aggie walked over to the table I was at and ignored me while she began a slow process of drying herself off. I cleared my throat and shifted in my seat.
