Oh, she tried desperately hard to get us alone, definitely to ask us what the hell we were doing here, playing along with her charade, so we made it harder and harder for her to corner us.It was just as well her parents were ecstatic about our presence and the rest of the family were very curious about us.It was truly fun watching her go through an array of emotions, predominantly confusion, while also trying to not blow her cover to her family—that we were, in fact, not engaged at all and that since a few hours ago, we hadn’t even met in person.We didn’t need to be psychics to know her greatest nemesis was her cousin Ines, who tried to question us and didn’t get very far when Adalynn’s parents pulled us away.

Does Adalynn know that the person who watched us kissing her in the alcove was Ines—that we deliberately caught her attention and made sure to lick our lips when we were done having our worlds turned upside down kissing and touching Adalynn?

No one messes with our bride-to-be.Depending on what Adalynn wants, we can destroy Ines.She just has to say the word.

But fuck, finding her wet, soaked, and hot required us to exercise the kind of control we didn’t think we were capable of.In all our lives, we had never had to hold back before.Sure, we took what we wanted, and we wanted Adalynn, but restraining the colossal raging need to slide our cocks into her pussy was the hardest fucking thing we did.She had to come to us first.

It’s a wonder we’re still functioning and we’re able to hold enough conversation with various family members to get by.It was pure torture, though.Taking turns to keep her panties in the pockets of our suit pants.We always made a point of catching her attention when we surreptitiously passed them around from one of us to the other.Her cheeks turned a bright pink, and she whipped her head away so fast I worried she would break her neck, but then she’d look back at us again.

We certainly hope she likes the Christmas gifts we got her.Does she know we intend to use them on her body until she screams our names?Having private jewelers on hand, working day and night to make what we wanted, was a great perk to being the three richest men in the whole fucking world.While we’re here, they’re cutting diamonds, making the final masterpiece.We were right from the moment we laid eyes on a photo of her.She just solidified our worlds coming together.She has no idea just how much pull she has on us.And all it took was one thought: how we felt thinking of another man touching her.

Fuck no.

But we also had to give her the choice.With her family’s Christmas Eve dinner done, made all the more delicious with her panties inside our pockets for when dessert was served, separate from the meal, we’re back in what they call the blue room.We didn’t expect to find her here.But if she stepped through the door, whatever her reason, she was ours.

Oh yeah.Adalynn Miller is ours for life.










Chapter Fourteen

Adalynn

––––––––

Spew the facts.Leaveout the feelings.I take a deep breath and begin.

“So,” I say shakily, “my full name is Adalynn Penelope Miller.”As if that matters.“I’m twenty-six years old, twenty-seven in a few months.I’m an only child and the oldest granddaughter.Also, I’m the only one of the granddaughters still unmarried.

“Which would be fine if everyone believed I was marriage material and would eventually tie the knot, but no one believes that, except, of course, my parents.So, it’s always a pity party that I don’t even have a boyfriend.

“I also do exceedingly strange things when I’m stressed.I’m really sorry.And I will fix this, I promise.With that backstory out of the way, here’s the main stuff.”I inhale deeply.

“I couldn’t bear being picked on again this year, so I manufactured a lie—that I was engaged and it was a secret.And then everything spiraled from there.We were at my apartment.There was a business magazine on my table.Your faces were on it.And I couldn’t stop myself.”

“You read business magazines?”Cove asks.
