“I don't think so,” the man with the flashlight said as he pointed the light—and a gun at me.I heard the gun click and I stopped.

The light moved from my face to my feet.And back again.He whistled.“Damn.No wonder the boss just put a call out to watch your ass.He's going to get a mint for you.”

I shivered, and it wasn't just from the cold.I crossed my arms in front of my chest.“I'm leaving,” I stated in as convincing a voice as I could muster.I mean, it was worth a shot, right?Even though I knew there was no way these idiots were going to let me just wander off.

The man with the gun laughed.“No, you're not.You're going back into your house until my boss shows up tomorrow.Then you'll do whatever the fuck he says you're gonna do.”He waved the gun at the guy on the ground.“Get up and take her inside.Now.The boss isn't going to be happy you damaged his goods.I can tell you that much.”

On command, the man who'd assaulted me rose with a loud groan.I hoped he'd sustained at least a few broken ribs.

Then he grabbed my arm and pulled me toward the house.“Fuckin' stupid bitch,” he spat and tugged harder on my arm.“We aren't done here,” he whispered in an angry voice.We arrived at the door, and he opened it.“Not by a longshot.I'll finish what I started.”He pushed me with both hands.“I guarantee it.”I fell violently to my knees.A burst of stinging pain shooting through the rest of my body.I looked up and saw his ugly face in the dim light of the kitchen.He was even more disgusting than I'd imagined.And I knew I'd never forget him.

“Fuck you!”I yelled and jumped to my feet, trying to cover my chest.

A smile crossed his face.“You can count on that.”He grasped the doorknob and laughed as he slammed it.

I could still hear his terrifying laugh through the closed door.I ran up and locked it.Of course, they could break it down if they really wanted to.But at least it gave me some feeling of security.No matter how false.

I pulled my bra up and fixed myself the best I could.Which wasn't great at all.My shirt was unrepairable.Even so, I pulled what was left of it across my chest.

When I headed into the living room, my father was in the same spot I'd left him in.His head lifted, and his eyes widened on his tear-streaked face.“I told you!”he cried.“I fuckin' told you not to go out there.”His body shook as he sobbed.But I had no time for him.I needed to clean myself up and figure out how I was going to escape this hellhole.

“Why don't you stay a little longer?”Giselle whined from the doorway.

I turned my head to see her standing there.Looking gorgeous as usual.Her T-shirt was an everyday kind of shirt.Except nothing on Giselle was ordinary.With her curves, she made everything she put on a masterpiece.The V in the front showed off her ample, beautiful cleavage.Cleavage that was even bigger.She'd told me that she was expecting again.Surprisingly enough, it hadn't stung like it probably should have.In fact, I was—happy for them.My brother didn't waste time.But, good for them.Their kids were great.And they obviously wanted more.So why not?

“I need to get back to my place,” I said, giving her a smile.“And out of your way.”

Giselle's face dropped, and she hurried up to me, breasts bouncing the whole way.“You aren't in our way.Not at all.”She wrapped her arms around me, so I did the same to her.“We love having you here.And so do the kids.You know that.”Her voice was muffled as she hugged me tight.

Fuck.

She felt good in my arms.Just like she always did.And truth be told, I'd gotten used to her many hugs throughout the day.Eve's, too.

“I'm better now.I can't stay here forever, sweetheart,” I said into her hair while I rubbed her back.“We’ve all got to get on with our lives.”

She shook her head back and forth on my chest, and it felt damn good.“You can stay here forever, honey.You know that.Stay for a little longer.Please?For me?”She looked up at me with watery eyes.And she knew I'd do anything for her when she looked at me like this.

Almost anything.

“This is for the best.We all know that.”I bent down and kissed her gently on the lips.God.Her lips were so fucking plump and delicious.

She kissed me back with vigor, maneuvering her tongue past my lips.It was difficult to say no to Giselle.Especially when her tongue was in my mouth.So, I kissed her back, savoring the familiarity of it.Giselle and I had kissed many times, and we would kiss many times more.

“Did you start the party without me?”Eve's voice interrupted us.

I stopped the kiss and looked to see her wandering up to us.“Did my invitation get lost in the mail?”She smirked and swayed into our arms.She rose onto her tiptoes and kissed me.Long and luscious.Then she lowered and kissed Giselle.

Fuck.

Watching them kiss was always hot.Their huge breasts touching each other drove me crazy.My cock twitched inside my pants, making himself known.

“He's trying to leave us,” Giselle said against Eve's lips.“And I was trying to convince him to stay.”

Eve's eyes shot straight to mine, and she blinked.“Wait—what?”Her eyes spotted my suitcase on the bed.The suitcase that she and Giselle had brought me from my place weeks ago.After they'd found me at Francesca's.
