I smiled softly, but Ash was moaning and pounding into me, and it was hard to remain tender under such a sensual onslaught. I began pushing back into him, meeting each thrust with eagerness, and Ashton called out his passion with an echoing shout. He jerked against me, leaving me trembling with the aftershocks of my own orgasm, and then slid out of me and backed away.
“At last,” Brax growled as he pulled me over to him.
Brax sat on the furs, legs extended, and had me straddle his lap. His cock rose proudly between us, and he lifted his hips to rub it against me. I clung to his shoulders as he slid his thick forearms beneath my hips and drew me up, above his rod. I reached between us and took hold of him, angling him into me. Then I wrapped my legs around his waist and my arms around his shoulders as he began to buck and grind.
I rolled my hips over him, and he tightened our embrace as he buried his face in my neck.
“Mads,” he moaned as he pushed deeper. “I love you.”
“I love you too,” I whispered.
Brax began bucking more violently; then he eased me back so that he could rub at my clit.
“Come for me, Mads,” Brax purred and then bent his head to my breast.
He sucked me in as he continued to work me below, and I leaned back on my hands and screamed my ecstasy to the forest.
Chapter Fourteen
“I have to tell you something,” I said to the princes–my husbands–hours later after we'd finally appeased our desire.
“Yes?” Ashton exchanged an odd look with his brothers before he gave me his attention.
“I'm not a servant.”
“What?” Wes sat up, taking me with him.
“I mean, I am now, but I wasn't always,” I amended. “I wasn't born a servant.”
“The old duke,” Brax whispered. “You were his first child, weren't you?”
“Yes,” I admitted. “My mother was the Duchess who disappeared, and my father remarried.”
“And after he died, they made you their servant?” Brax growled.
“Yes.”
“Those evil fucking bitches!” Ashton shouted. “They will pay for this, Madelyn. They will fucking pay.”
“Easy now, Prince.” I held up a hand. “Technically, my stepmother did nothing wrong. She continued to provide for me; she just did so in a poor manner.”
“You don't treat a noble girl like that,” Wes said. “There's no technically about it, Maddie. She broke the law, and she will be punished for it.”
“Oh,” I whispered.
“And we're going to get your home back,” Ashton vowed. “It belongs to you, not her. That's why she made you a servant. A second wife only holds property until a legitimate heir can claim it. She has no right to it, and neither do her daughters.”
“I didn't know,” I whispered.
“You know what this means?” Braxton said excitedly.
“What?” Wes asked.
“We can present Maddie to Mother and Father,” Brax declared. “They can have no protests against us marrying a Duchess.”
“You're right!” Ash exclaimed. “It looks like we'll be having that grand wedding sooner than we thought, sweetheart.”
“This was grand enough for me,” I said hurriedly.
