CHAPTER 6

The next morning I woke up to a cool breeze hitting my naked body. Blinking a few times to clear my vision I smiled as I looked through the open window at the beautiful view of the early morning sunrise. I was alone in bed, in Law's bed!

The memories of last night slowly came back and I felt the burst of joy within my chest. We confessed our feelings and both men made passionate love to me. We could have even made a baby.

Just the thought of having their son I pressed my face on the cool side of the pillow, squealing softly.

"Morning Bumble Bee."

Colt's deep drawl followed by his heavy hands across my back had me squealing again, the femine noise causing a chuckle out of the sexy man.

"Come here."

I complied easily, folding my naked body onto his lap as he took a seat at the end of the bed. He wore his work clothes, worn jeans, boots and an unbuttoned western shirt.

I couldn't help but nuzzle my cheek into the soft hair curled on his chest. He smelled clean, fresh and masculine.

"You sore?" He whispered softly, his voice a deep rumble in his chest.

Shaking my head I pressed harder into his chest, a little embarrassed at his question.

Slowly his large hand that was stroking between my shoulder blades slid down to cup my bare bottom, his other hand caressing my ankle. His fingers felt overwhelmingly sensual as they stroked the sensitive skin.

"Answer."

Quickly answering his demand, I looked up and rested my chin against his shoulder. "A little. You and Law are just s-so big."

Gosh! Did I really just say that?

He responded with a laugh, throwing his head back and gathering me closer.

He looked so carefree in that moment, and although you can't forget how powerful this man was, I was also reminded how kind and loving he could be. Both men proved that to me last night. My pelvis contracted at the thought of them inside of me.

With careful movements I slid my hands down his stomach and tugged at the large belt buckle. I needed him, now!

I was able to pull the belt open by the time Colt sombered up.

"You need me again, don't you?"

"Yes!" I all but whimpered.

I was clumsy but he was not. Within seconds he had himself unzipped and his large member was erect and between my thighs.

I was so wet already for him and he grunted his approval when he slid his thick fingers between my swollen folds. Gripping his shoulders while he gripped my outer thighs I allowed him to enter me in one quick motion. He powerfully slammed up into me, unapologetic if I was sore. Surprisingly it only turned me on more to remember I was a little tender from our lovemaking the previous night. We stared at one another as he gritted his teeth, his thick neck flushed red and a strong vein pulsed. He was a beast.

I was crying out my first release by the time he stood up and pressing me against the half open window. The curtains were open and I felt my back hit the cold glass. He had kicked off one pant leg and lifted that leg onto the window sill. He was so deep inside me, his cock sliding almost all the way out before going to the hilt.

I was begging for another climax as he mouth nipped at my neck and I quickly became aware of his thumb pressing into uncharted territory.

Using my cream that slid down my thighs, he dipped his thumb and swirled the rough tip around my puckered hole. The pressure against that virginal hole spiraled me into my orgasm, and I could feel myself pulse against his hot member.

"Keep milkin' me baby." He growled in my ear, thrusting himself two more times before he stilled within me.

We stayed like that for a while as we caught our breaths and found our footing. I was still in a daze as he grinned down at me before turning me towards the window.

I almost sobbed as I stared down at the front yard where Law stood looking up at us.

"Seems he liked the little show." Colt chuckled, kissing me on the back of the neck before leaving me alone to face down the eldest Walker brother.

I wonder if he saw Colt enter my forbidden hole with his thumb?

As quick as the thought came I grabbed the curtain and shut them closed but not before catching the devilish grin that finally spread on Law's handsome face.

****

Unfortunately within the next couple weeks there were more unexpected issues at the ranch that kept the men out until late at night or sometimes till the early morning. In the meantime I ended up working part time with the only veterinarian in Freedom. Dr. Charles "Chuck" Carney was in his late forties, happily married with one daughter whom I happened to go to high school with. He cared for not only dogs, cats, reptiles but also went out to certain ranches for large animals as well.

With all the experience I was gaining, I was thankful for pushing myself all those years through vet tech school. I was just finishing my shift Friday evening when my phone began to ring. Just as I climbed into my Jeep I answered.

"Bumble Bee."

Law's deep rumble of a voice shot a shiver down my spine and straight between my legs. He was all man.

"Hi."

"Where are you?"

I laughed as he snarled the words. He knew exactly where I was. Both men were possessive and I didn't mind one bit that they demanded to know my schedule every week. In fact, it only made me love them more.

"I am just leaving Dr. Chuck's." I told him glad he couldn't see as I rolled my eyes.

"You don't need to work."

Part of me was furious that we were back to this conversation. Only a few days after we made love for the first time I was back Law and Colt started to fixate on the possibility that I may be pregnant. In all of a matter of a minute they demanded we get married, and that I wasn't to work. Colt even made it clear I wouldn't be working with any damn untrusty animal while carrying his child.

I knew he didn't mean it, both men loved animals in all shapes and sizes. Any children we had would as well.

As quickly as I could I told them that I was not going to accept their proposal and the next time they asked it better include a ring and at least one of them down on one knee. I also told them that there was no way in hell that I wouldn't accept Dr. Chucks offer to work with him part time.

In the end, I was promised an honest marriage proposal and their agreement that I should utilize the skills I went to school for. But that was all after I was tossed over Law's knee and finally got the spankings I was promised four years ago.

Grinning at the naughty memory, Law's voice on the end of the line brought me back to the present. "Myself, Colt and the cousins will meet you and Josie for dinner and drinks in about twenty."

"Sounds fun!" I giggled, looking in the mirror to scrub the mascara off that smudged under my eye.

"You too stay out of trouble while your waitin' for us." Law stated firmy, earning another eye roll from me.

Acting appalled, I feigned horror, "We would never get ourselves into trouble."

That earned a good hearty chuckle and I swooned all over again for this man.

"Ok baby, I'll see you soon." There was still some laughter in his voice.

"I love you." I whispered, closing my eyes as I waited for what he'd say next. I've heard it many, many times since I've returned home but I still felt the excitement of it.

"And I love you." His words felt like pure pleasure in my ears. I even made sure to tell him that, earning me a scolding. He was just as turned on at the words as I was.

After hanging up and doing a silly little dance accompanied by a girly squeal I called Josie right up to see where she was.

She ended up being at her aunt's house on main street. It didn't take long to drive there from the Vet's office to pick her up. We chatted the whole way to the town bar and grill, talking about our men and our horses.

"You look cute in your scrubs." She told me as I pulled the Jeep into a parking spot.

I looked down at my form fitting turquoise scrubs with Freedom Veterinary Hospital embroidered on the left breast. "Thanks Josie. The dog hair and little bit of cat piss on my sneakers really make it adorable."

We were still giggling at my sarcastic remark as we entered the bar. The bar host led us to a large round booth in the corner of the place. It was a great table as we were facing the live band but were far enough away where our conversation could be easily heard among us. We ordered ourselves two iceas while we waited for the men to arrive.

"Surprised you didn't order a beer Miss Bumble Bee." Josie said, tongue in cheek.

I couldn't help the blush that spread on my cheeks. "Can say the same thing about you."

I watched as my best friend's eyes teared and her face broke out in a huge grin. "I'm finally pregnant."

I knew Josie and her men were trying to conceive and hadn't had any luck since their marriage. She was heartbroken, fearful that something was wrong with her. Her OBGYN promised her that it was normal and that there was absolutely nothing wrong with her.

After we quieted down, not noticing the amused looks from the other tables, I gathered her in a tight hug. "I am just so happy for you."

"Oh Bee, when we found out it was just the happiest moment of our lives." Her face was beautiful with the amount of joy that radiated from her. She was glowing, even her hair and skin looked brighter.

"Now, your turn!" She eyed me teasingly.

Spinning the straw in the glass I chose my words carefully. "I'm not pregnant-I mean I don't know if I am." Flustered I shook my head. "It would be too soon to tell."

A comforting hand landed on my own, her touch settling my nerves. "Whatever happens will be meant to be."

I couldn't help but grin as she emphasized the last word, making word play with my name. "They've promised to marry me."

"About damn time." She exclaimed, "Those men of yours have a lot of time to make up for."

We both looked up as the bell rang, notifying the staff that people were entering. In came five tall cowboys, each set of their eyes scanning the restaurant until they settled on us.

Josie received a grin from each of her men as they made a beeline towards her. Law and Colt on the other hand held my gaze as they stalked toward me. Dark smoldering eyes never once wavering, even as a few women tried for their attention. No, they only had eyes for me. They looked handsome in their worn jeans and western shirts.

Each man took a seat on either side of me with their thighs pressed right beside mine. I must look like an elf between them.

"What are you giggling about?" Colt murmured into my ear as he slid a warm hand around my neck to pull me towards him.

"I'm an elf!" I giggled, turning so my lips could meet his.

"And elf?" Law grunted, confusion settling in his face. Quickly my odd comment was forgotten as Colt passed me to his brother, Law's mouth landing heavy on mine.

"How was your day?" He asked softly against my cheek, placing a light kiss there after he spoke.

"It was good." I began to tell them about a case that came in the office today. A senior dog had been having trouble with his teeth and it took me almost three hours to clean the poor guy's mouth. In the end though the dog was much happier and had an easier time eating.

Once I finished with telling them about my day, we fell into conversation with Josie and the cousins. We went back to congratulating them on their pregnancy, the entire time the talk was on babies both Law and Colt had their hands on me. As Josie and her men's pregnancy was very early and she still had to take a blood test for confirmation we were told to keep it a secret. They wouldn't have to worry as no one at the table liked to gossip. At one point Colt's arm slid around my waist so his hand could settle possessively across my stomach. I couldn't help but feel nervous, thinking about what the future will bring. Would I carry their child? Was I ready to be a mother?

Forcing the thoughts out of my mind so I could enjoy the evening, I listened as the men talked about the weekend plans at the ranch. I was just biting into my cheeseburger while Josie was begging the men to take us on the river with the tubes. No one noticed the blonde dressed in daisy dukes and the tight red tank top approach the table.

"Law."

She said his name like a lover would, putting her palms on the table so she could lean over. I almost choked as her boobs jiggled infront of Law's face, she may seem promiscuous but there was no doubt she was attractive. Thankfully his eyes weren't looking, instead his expression was reserved as he stared blankly at her face.

"What do you want Cindy?"

As he asked the question, I couldn't help but think about how familiar she looked. I could tell she was older than I so I didn't think it was from high school.

I watched as the woman put her lips in a sexy pout, flinging her blonde hair over her shoulder. Again, I couldn't help but think she spoke to Law like they're lovers.

I quickly found out that was the case.

"You haven't returned any of my calls since our night together." Her amused eyes flickered towards mine, giving me a pointed look. " It's been a month."

If I thought I felt pain before, it was nothing compared to the way her words made me feel. My mind spiraled as I thought back to my arrival, only a few days short of a month. Law had been her just before I came home?

I dropped my burger as I remembered his promise about not having sex with anyone since I've left. I looked up at Colt, unable to face Law. His eyes were pleading, the hand on my thigh tightened. "Have you been with her too?" I bit out the words, my throat closing up.

I shouldn't have let her see me cry, it only fueled this awful woman's words. "Oh Darlin', don't you know? They like sharing."

"Cindy, you need to leave." Law abruptly stood up and I took that as my opportunity to escape. I shoved against his hard chest as he tried to catch me around the waist.

The woman didn't falter, instead her hands went to her hips as she smiled wider. "Wait! You're the little girl from the bar all those years ago." She laughed, her manicured fingers covering her mouth. "You're still chasing the Walker Boys aren't you?"

Unable to stand there any longer, I turned as quickly as I could and ran out the bar. I ignored Josie as she tried catching up to me, letting the door to the front entrance shut behind me. She made me feel like a child, not a woman. Of course they've been with her, she is gorgeous and well, they're men.

I didn't even buckle up as I threw the Jeep in gear. I angrily wiped my tears as I tried to control the sobs tore through me. She was the woman all those years ago.

The woman that they had up against the bar wall, the one they promised they didn't have sex with. My world began to crash as I remembered the baby that may be inside of me. What would I do?

Cursing their promise of love, marriage and protection I took off down the road. It wasn't long that my phone began to buzz and the lifted ranch pick up truck came right on my tail. I could see Law's hand gripping the wheel as Colt had his phone to his ear, no doubt the one calling my phone.

I slowed down off the side of the road, shaking in defeat. By the time they approached my face was in my hands as I cried for everything I was losing. The door swung open as large arms pulled me from the vehicle.

"You poor thing." Colt whispered, tucking me tighter into his chest.

"I hate you!" I spoke the words with a broken voice, gripping his shirt so hard my knuckles turned white. "You lied."

Colt didn't answer as he easily stepped into the large pick up truck, keeping me in his lap and tight against his chest.

I tried to push away, turning towards the passenger door. "Let me go."

"Genevieve."

Law's voice shook the whole truck as he yelled my name. His heavy fist hit the center console, almost breaking the thing in two.

He immediately had my attention.
