She stared at him a moment and could see the sadness and anger in his eyes. He was still upset at seeing their father. She was still feeling shocked at knowing the suffering all three men sustained. She hadn’t even made the connection. Perhaps she was too caught up in her own dilemma to have figured this out sooner. Either way, she wanted to help them.

“Everything is fine. I don’t think I’ll have much scarring, but I’m bruised up a bit. See my arm?” She stretched her arm out and both men looked at the bruising.

“Sorry, baby,” Evan said as he leaned forward and gently tilted her arm higher so he could kiss the discolored skin. She felt those tiny, magical sensations travel up and down her arm and damn it, straight to her pussy.

Her lips parted as he continued a pathway up her arm, to her shoulder, then neck, and eventually her lips. Evan pressed his palm against her cheek and held her as he kissed her deeply. She couldn’t help but touch him and explore his chest full of muscles with her free hand. The kiss grew deeper and a bit wilder as more sensations filled her body. She twisted toward him and somehow wound up halfway across his lap and those wonderful, firm, hard thighs of his.

When she felt the palm of his hand against her belly and under her blouse, she tensed a moment. Evan gently released her lips. He was breathing just as hard as she was. They locked gazes and he smiled. “You taste so good, Ava.” He looked at her body, his eyes roaming over her thighs and the cleavage of her breasts. She felt the heat of his stare all the way to her core. Wearing the skirt gave him access to her body, and she wanted him to take advantage of that.

He gently rubbed his thumb across her bottom lip just as she felt Colton’s fingers rub softly up and down her knee and thigh.

“We’ll be home in ten minutes. We can be alone. We want to hold you, Ava,” Colton said.

She felt so comfortable with them and yet, she was concerned about Jeremiah and the confrontation back at the hospital. Before she could ask them, Evan leaned down and kissed her again. He scattered soft kisses against her mouth and lips as if each small area tasted differently and more appealing than the next. “So delicious,” he whispered then kissed her mouth fully.

She felt his hand move against her knee and up under her skirt to her thigh.

She crossed her legs best she could in this position and Colton chuckled.

Evan released her lips and brought her fully up onto his lap so she was sideways, with her arms wrapped around his neck and shoulders. He stared up into her eyes.

“I want to explore what’s mine. It’s time, Ava. I need to be with you. I’ve never wanted anything more.”

She swallowed hard and laid her head against his shoulder. He held her tight and allowed her to remain silent as Colton drove the rest of the way to their place. She wanted both of them as much as they wanted her, she just hoped they could accept her with all her faults and scars. She hugged Evan tightly and he held her close as Colton caressed her ankle while he drove.

“Evan, what about your father? What was that all about back there?” she asked. He tightened his hold and so did Colton.

“Please, Ava, not now. I don’t want to think about him, I only want to be with you. Colton and I need you, Ava,” he whispered as he kissed her forehead and she hugged him tight. Ava sensed the depth of his request straight to her heart.

Evan felt his nerves getting the better of him. He never felt so out of control, yet completely a hundred percent certain of what he wanted. In his mind, as he held Ava in his arms, wanting to give her the world, he had flashbacks of the war and of course of Chelsea. He remembered the day she told him that she was pregnant. Sure, it wasn’t the best of times and he was planning on leaving for another tour, but he had believed he was the father and nothing else but his child mattered. He knew what it was like to not have a father or at least not have a good one.

Evan swallowed hard. Ava brought all of these emotions up front today. Seeing that his father was alive and also friendly enough with their woman to be holding her, giving her yellow roses, and walking with her, angered him like nothing before. He was positive that Colton felt that same grip of fear nearly suffocating him. The worry was that their father could hurt Ava, or worse, pretend to be something that he wasn’t then break her heart as he did to their mother and to them. Evan squeezed Ava to him as he closed his eyes and tried his damnedest to rid his mind of the thoughts. Forget about Chelsea. Forget about Jeremiah Banks and forget about the past. He had their present, their future, and their forever in his arms.

Evan felt his chest tighten and excitement fill his body as Colton parked the truck in the garage by the barn. Ava remained hugging him as he opened his door and got out, with her in his arms. She pulled back a second.

“You can let me down. I can walk, Evan,” she whispered. He noticed that her cheeks looked flushed, and he was certain he felt her heart racing as he held her close. Evan remained staring into her eyes.

“I prefer to keep you in my arms, close against me, where I know you’re safe.” He headed toward the house. Colton opened the front door and they entered.

He couldn’t speak. He didn’t want to chitchat. He didn’t want to waste any more time discussing anything. He wanted to make Ava his and his brother’s. They needed this closeness desperately.

As he headed straight toward the staircase and right to the largest bedroom in the house, he felt Ava grip his shoulders.

“Evan, I’m…scared,” she whispered, but he held her gaze. Colton placed his hands on her shoulders and kissed the top of her head. Having his brother there to share this moment, this special time between the three of them, brought him more excitement and joy than he ever would have imagined. They were close, they were everything to one another, and now Ava made them complete.

Evan held her gaze.

“Don’t be scared. We won’t hurt you. Besides…I’m scared, too,” he whispered, and slowly, they walked toward the bed.

Evan eased her down onto the bedspread. She held their gazes and felt Evan’s sincerity in his words, his tone, and his body language. This wasn’t a mistake. This was destiny. She knew it with all her heart as she stared at the two handsome men who’d entered her life when she needed some angels of her own the most.

Colton began to unbutton his shirt and Evan followed suit. She took some unsteady breaths as she watched more skin being revealed. She couldn’t help but lick her lips at the sight of muscular male flesh. They were both in amazing shape. Evan had muscles upon muscles and a waist that dipped in, revealing a dusting of hair. Evan placed his hands on the elastic of her skirt and began to pull it down and off of her. Everything about him turned her on. She was in tune to the scent of his cologne, the masculine sight of his fingers, knuckles, and wrist and the gentle way he stroked her skin. She lifted her hips and allowed him to remove the skirt. He dragged an index finger along her red silk panties.

“So soft and pretty, just like you,” Evan whispered and Colton leaned down onto the side of the bed and began to slowly undo the buttons on her blouse.
