“You’re a tease.”
“Nope, just making you a promise.” Zeke moved to go around her, squeezing her gently on the backside. “Do you need to go clean up?”
Nina nodded, her heart clenching at his suggestion. He always made sure she felt clean after they had any kind of sex. She’d stopped feeling like it was all gross and loved laying in bed with him and smelling like sex, but she wasn’t sure she should smell like an orgasm for dinner with her brother. “I’ll be back in a minute.”
“No rush, angel. We’re not going anywhere.”
Nina smiled and hurried up the stairs. She heard the two men’s voices and smiled before she closed the bedroom door.
She’d made herself at home in Zeke’s house. The clothes he bought her took up space in his dresser and closet. Her bathroom products lined his sink and shower. Everything he had, he let her use. And everything she had, he gave her.
Nina used the bathroom, then changed into clean panties that weren’t soaked through. She hurried back downstairs and threw her arms around her brother. “Hey, Monty.”
“Hey, sis. How are you?”
Nina shrugged. “Good, I think. Unless you have bad news.”
“No news. Just wanted to see you.”
“Good. I’ve missed too much time with you.”
“I agree. What do you think about going somewhere with me tomorrow?”
“Where do you want to go?”
Monty shrugged. “Don’t know yet. Just want to spend some time with you. Work has been busy the last month, but I tooktomorrow off so I could see you. This one’s been monopolizing you.” He hooked his thumb toward Zeke.
Nina grinned, not allowing her gaze to go to the man who gave her an orgasm just a few minutes ago and was definitely worthy of the monopolization. “You know he’d do anything for either of us.”
“I know.” Monty pulled Nina in for a hug. “I just miss you. He’s going to handle some things at the office for the day.”
Nina nodded, trying not to miss Zeke before she was already away from him. She could handle one day. “Sounds good.”
“Ready to eat?” Zeke asked from the kitchen.
Monty let Nina go first and followed her into the kitchen. They all grabbed food and sat on the couch. The men argued about the game they were watching, and Nina just listened, enjoying the sounds that she’d long ago forgotten. Them laughing and arguing and challenging each other. It was so good to be home.
“Are you done?” Zeke asked, drawing her attention back to the moment.
Both men had finished eating, and Monty was heading for the door. “Yeah. I’m good.”
Zeke hesitated and narrowed his eyes at her.
She waved him off, smiling to let him know she really was okay, then followed Monty to the door. “Tomorrow?”
Monty nodded. “Tomorrow. I’ll be here around eight.”
“Can’t wait.”
He hugged her. “Me, too. We’ll have fun.”
Nina nodded and stepped back before Monty opened the door. The usual fear rushed in, but the door closed and she flipped the lock and she trusted that she was safe again.
“He sprung the idea on me when you were upstairs,” Zeke said. “Are you good with it?”
Nina went to where he stood next to the kitchen counter. Gene rubbed his head against Zeke’s hand, making sure Zeke got the right spot behind his ear.
“Of course. I know he’ll protect me, too. One day, maybe I won’t need you guys to put your lives on hold for me. I can leave the house and open the door and do all the things normal people do without worrying.”
