Prakash and I exhaled long sighs of relief.

“She’s gone,” Leopold whispered through the door. “But we’ll stay alert in case she returns with a key.”

“Thanks,” said Prakash.

We stared into each other’s eyes for several moments, drinking each other in. Mrs. Benazir’s interruption had extinguished the desire that had burned within me moments ago.

Weariness etched his handsome features. I hadn’t noticed it earlier, but the incident with the headmistress had brought a strain around his eyes and tightness to his brow that hadn’t existed before.

I longed to erase his worries, but I didn’t know how.

Prakash cupped my cheeks and placed a soft kiss in the center of my forehead. “Thank you for standing by me.”

“I’ll always watch out for you,” I murmured, “Just as you’ve watched out for me.”

He lowered his lips onto mine in the gentlest of kisses and drew me into his chest. “Let’s go to bed.”

The next morning, I awoke with my head resting in the crook of Prakash’s neck. Last night, he had hinted at a few things, some of them disturbing. Now, with the morning light streaming through the window and hitting the embroidered, white comforter, they rose to the forefront of my mind.

Deep and even breaths heaved out of his lungs, making his chest rise and fall, indicating he was still asleep. Running my hands along the silken hairs on his chest, I sighed. Last night had been so bitter-sweet. I had loved our closeness, loved the way he had held me and cherished me as though I was the most precious thing in the world.

But I still had the feeling Prakash felt that his incarceration was a just punishment for what he had done to Corrine. More alarming was the thought that he might still have to face trial for what Bruce did to Ashley.

My finger skimmed his dark brown nipple, which puckered under my touch. I made tiny circles over his little areola and glanced at his handsome, regal features for any reaction.

“Kash?” I whispered.

He didn’t wake up.

I blew a gentle stream of air into his ear, hoping it would at least make him stir, but he gave no reaction. What if he had slept badly in the detention center? If he was only out on bail, did I need to ruin the moment by bringing up his legal problems?

No, I didn’t. Besides, Sebastian had probably already spoken with Mr. Pinkerton. It could wait until we were all together. My fingers traveled a slow trail toward the other nipple.

Prakash’s chest rumbled. “If you like body hair, there’s plenty more lower down.”

With a smirk, I ran my hand down the thin trail of hair leading from his chest to the thatch beneath his belly button. My little finger bumped his erection, and I smoothed precum over his huge cock head with my index finger. The skin there was rougher than Sebastian’s and Leopold’s, and I guessed it was because he’d been circumcised.

He drew in a sharp breath between his teeth. “You know polyandry is practiced in India.”

“Hasn’t it been outlawed yet?”

“In some communities, it’s a form of keeping the family property together.” He shuddered. “And population control, I suppose.”

“Ah, because a woman can only have so many children?” I wrapped my hand around his erection and twisted it around his gorgeous head.

Prakash shuddered. “Th-that’s right.”

“How does a polyandrous marriage work?” Propping myself up to one elbow, I lay on my side, continuing to work his dick, sliding my grip up and down his thick shaft, making sure to pay attention to the sensitive tip.

The skin along his shaft was as smooth as lambskin, but veins pulsed and protruded underneath its delicate surface.

Prakash closed his eyes and tremble. Harsh breaths huffed in and out of his nostrils, and the muscles of his face clenched, as though he was trying to regain his composure.“In some communities, marrying a man automatically weds the woman to all the brothers in the household.”

I pressed a kiss on his shoulder. “Sounds delightful if the brothers are all as nice and handsome as each other.”

He cracked an eye open. “Would that interest you?”

“You three are my first boyfriends. I doubt that I’ll be able to go back to having just one.”
