"Is that a fox?" I ask, squinting in the direction of the noises.
A throaty, wordless shout reverberates through the woods. The keening escalates into a high-pitched scream.
Calli winces. "No, that's not a fox."
"What is it…" I trail off as, a second later, a louder shout echoes through the forest.
A female voice screams, "Gavin!"
My eyes fly wide. "He's fucking my sister, the bastard!"
The puppies start barking and pulling on their leashes.
"We better go," Calli says, "before they hear the dogs."
I try to frown, but it winds up as a rueful smile. "Guess this is my punishment for seducing you."
She pats my cheek. "Your sister's an adult, this was bound to happen sometime."
"Would've rather not heard it."
"You'll get over the trauma." Clasping my hand, she leads the way back to the house.
The noise from the cabin ends with another scream as Calli and I enter the fenced yard. We release the puppies from their leashes, and they take off, racing around the yard while barking and jumping. Soon, a squirrel high up in a tree snags their attention. The puppies crouch at the base of the trunk, their gazes locked on the creature beyond their reach.
"They'll be occupied for a while," Calli says.
I can't stop staring in the direction of the cabin. Or maybe I'm scowling.
"Don't torture yourself," she says. "They had sex, it's not the end of the world."
I turn away from the fence and what lies beyond it, hidden in the woods. "I understand how your brother felt when he found us living in the same house."
"Gavin's not sleeping with your sister as revenge. He wouldn't do anything so petty and sleazy."
"I know he wouldn't." I fold an arm around her shoulders, hugging her to me. "Jamie wasn't a virgin. She'd been engaged a few years ago and sometimes sneaked back into our parents' house in the early morning, getting caught a few times. That's why she lives with Rory at the moment, for privacy. I don't think she's been with anyone for a good while, though."
As we amble across the yard toward the house, Calli loops her arm around my waist and leans her head against me. "I was a virgin when I slept with you, but Gavin had no idea about that. We don't talk about sex."
"I only know about Jamie because I saw her buying condoms." I clear my throat. "I may have gotten slightly upset about it. She threw the box at me and said she hadn't been a virgin since she was nineteen."
"She wouldn't have told you if she hadn't been ticked at you?"
"No. I don't talk about sex with my sisters."
"You talk about it with your brothers?"
I pull the sliding doors open, and we enter the house. Without letting go of Calli, I push the door shut and turn us both until we face each other. "I talk about sex with my brothers, but I don't share details."
"No kiss and tell?"
"Absolutely not." I twist my face in fake disgust. "I don't want to hear about the adventures of Lachlan and Rory and their women."
She links her arms around my neck. "Enough about our families. I'd rather talk about what you're going to do to me."
I grasp her buttocks in both hands, tugging her into my groin—and my hardeningslat. "Tell me what you want this time."
"I have an idea, but it might be silly."
