Pinching the bridge of my nose, I exhale deeply. "Kai, this is a lot. Things are changing way too fast."
"Pres, I told you before I fucked you that you were mine, that means where you are, I am. Got it? Plus, we all work together. We can carpool and shit." His tone goes from authoritative to playful which is the Kai that I know best.
His smile is contagious, well almost. He's always been able to read a room, and he's trying to calm me down before I lose it.
"Kai, if I live with you two Neanderthals, then how am I supposed to have any semblance of a social life." My breathing hitches, I want them, but I don't want to lose myself in the process.
He turns his thousand watt smile on me, nearly killing me from the heat of it. "You'll still have a social life, you'll be with me, which means things are about to get wild for you."
"What does that mean, Kai?"
"It means that you're going to become as obsessed with me as I am with you." He shrugs, like this is normal conversation.
I am obsessed with everything Donovan brother related, but I don't say that. I'd never have the nerve. "Yeah, maybe."
"I got your maybe, Princess." He mumbles.
Studying his profile, I smile. Why does he have to be so sexy? My muscles ache from having sex for the first time, but I want him again. My brain is in some smut filled overload.
Will Gunner be as dominant? Will his cock be as thick as Kai's? I'd like to find out. Being with only one of them is not an option for me. I need them both to survive.
What will our new relationship even look like? Gunner is my professor and my superior at work so we'd have to hide everything between us.
That'll be hard, because I don’t want to hide how I feel about him anymore. Yet, there would be no way around it. After graduation both of those stipulations would be lifted.
As far as Wonderland is concerned I could transfer to anotherdepartment when I get my degree. I'd miss working with my guys, but it would be worth it in the end.
"Are you still mad at me for planning to hook up with Leo?" Part of me regrets the words as soon as they leave my mouth.
On the other hand, I need to know. As much as he hates when I'm mad at him, I hate it even more when the roles are reversed.
He's my best guy friend, and this is new territory for us. I'll feel better once we set some ground rules, but I need him to not be mad at me for that conversation.
"I'm still upset, but not really mad any more. Presley, you don't realize it yet, but you've started a war. He's not going to take you choosing us over him lightly. There's something about that asshole that's just not right. Like his elevator doesn't quite go all the way to the top."
I nod, even though I think he's being a little melodramatic. Leo made me feel uneasy at one point during our beach walk. During that moment, I could sense that something was hidden there beneath his surface. I thought it was a figment of my imagination, but maybe it wasn’t.
I can feel the heat of Kai’s gaze, he knows there’s something I’m not telling him. I really wish they weren’t as in tune with my feelings as they are. It’s just not fair that they can read me like a book when I can’t read them as easily.
Blowing some hair out of my face to buy some time, I try not to panic. I don’t have a problem voicing my concerns about what happened at the beach, but If I don't tell him about Leo calling me a whore, Declan will.
Kai already broke his nose tonight, and that could get him in enough trouble. His coach isn’t one for bullshit.
Maybe kicking his ass will be enough to satisfy him, because there isn't much else he can do besides kill him. Which is crazy talk.
Kai swerves, and I finally meet his look of concern. “Can you please keep your eyes on the road?”
His voice is a combination of lethal and fuck around and find out. "Did he hurt you?"
"No, Kai! Of course he didn't, but he did scare me during our walk on the beach. I chalked it up to my imagination, but if you sense it, then maybe I really should stay away from him."
"The fuck! You're staying away from him because if I catch him around you again, I'll kill him."
I laugh in response until I look over at his face. I don't think he's joking. "Kai, you can't say things like that. What if someone else heard you?”
He shrugs. "I mean it, Presley. I’m going to kill him, and trust me, they won't ever find the body."
I roll my eyes. My Kai wouldn't do that. "You're a psychopath."
