“Yes, yes, get in there, Hart. I need it.” She panted.
“Holy fucking shit,” Juno said then gripped her hair and head and bought his cock to her lips. She licked the bulbous head, swirled her tongue around it, and just as she sucked Juno’s cock into her mouth Hart pressed his cock into her lubricated ass.
They moved so hard and fast, everyone in need of fulfilling that arousal, that desire they stirred up in one another all afternoon and at dinner.
Juno cried out, coming first, and then pulled from her mouth after she swallowed him.
She was moaning and panting when Hart and Orsin growled out their releases.
Hart pulled out, and Atlas was there wrapping his arm around her waist, pulling her upward as Orsin moved out of the way.
She felt her arms being pulled upward, her breasts and chest hit the bed but her ass remained upright, and in a flash handcuffs were attached to her wrists and pressed upward.
The feel of the cool, hard metal aroused her so much she came, and a moment later Atlas shoved into her cunt from behind. He gripped her arms above her wrists so as not to hurt her and press to close to the metal. The cuffs were loose and felt so strange but gave her the feeling of being controlled and restrained by Atlas, sending her screaming out for him to fuck her harder.
Atlas slapped her ass numerous times and continued to rock into her pussy when she felt his finger penetrate her anus and begin to stroke her hole, too. Over and over again he thrust into her, his cock so hard she lost her breath. She came again, calling his name, and he grabbed her hips, helped her to remain upright as he thrust three more times, and held himself deep in her pussy as he came.
“Sydney. Oh fuck, Sydney, I love you,” he told her and she fell to the bed, flat on her belly.
Atlas eased his fingers from her ass and his cock from her pussy and kissed along her spine.
“I love you, too, Atlas,” she whispered.
He rose up and Juno was there. He rolled her to her back, climbed up between her legs, and smiled as he caressed her arms upward.
“I think I like you in handcuffs and completely under our control.”
“I think I like being restrained by Atlas’s handcuffs and giving over all control to you,” she admitted, and Juno gave her a serious, passionate look. “Good,” he said then lifted her thighs higher over his thighs and thrust his cock into her pussy.
A moment later Hart was suckling one breast and nipple while Orsin suckled the other. Atlas ran his finger through her hair and then held onto the handcuffs in the middle where they met, making her bend her pelvis upward, causing all the sensations to overwhelm her. She screamed out another release and so did Juno.
She felt like a limp mess of skin and bones as she lay there exhausted and content while her lovers cleaned her up, and Atlas kissed her wrists, making sure the handcuffs hadn’t chafed her skin. He placed them onto the dresser and she smirked at him.
“How about I use them on you next time?” she teased, and he leaned down and smiled. “Never going to happen. You’re the one in need of discipline. I’m the deputy to dish it out.” He covered her mouth and kissed her and she hugged Atlas close.
“I love you, baby. Always,” he said.
“I love you, too, deputy. Always.”
He ran his hands along her sides and pulled her to his chest where she fell asleep surrounded by her lovers and happier than she ever recalled being in her life.
Chapter 14
Ella didn’t know what to do as the Texas Ranger and a federal agent explained why they were at Matt’s ranch and needed to talk to her. Her mom looked scared and disappointed, and Sheriff Wyatt Cantrell looked like one badass sheriff.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I just started seeing Graham a few weeks ago,” she said. She tried to lie and buy herself some time to think of something. She was living in Texas for a matter of months and she was in deep shit, screwing up everything.
“Ella, we know that you’re involved, that you somehow connected Graham and his dealers with two men you know from New York. Bruno and Lenny.”
“Ella, what is he talking about? What men?” Stella asked.
“What’s going on in here?” Sydney asked as she arrived with her men. Sydney walked into the room, and the men exchanged handshakes and introductions. It seemed they all knew one another. This was a small community, and Mellissa and Diane explained to her about the whole guardianship thing and being watched over and protected. She didn’t think it applied to her. She still didn’t believe a thing these cops were telling her. Double-crossing men like Graham and Bruno was worse.
The agent explained what was going on to Sydney, backtracking to when they first arrived and where they were at now.
“Bruno? You freaking connected Bruno to Graham to sell drugs?” Sydney asked, sounding disgusted and shocked.
“It wasn’t like that. Bruno and Graham got to talking. Bruno wanted me to sell these drugs I brought with us from New York.”
“You brought drugs in the car with us from New York? You brought them here to Matt’s home? Are you out of your mind? Are you stupid, Ella? How could you be so selfish? What if we were pulled over? We would all be in jail and charged with having illegal drugs. Hell, Matt could have gotten arrested. When are you going to grow up and start thinking about other people instead of yourself? When?” Sydney screamed at her.
Ella felt the tears roll down her cheeks. “I was scared, and I know it was stupid. You and Mom didn’t get caught. Everything was fine and I got rid of them as soon as I met Graham. He offered money and then I got Bruno off my case and sent him the money from the drug deal. I was done, finished when Graham told me he talked with Bruno and they were going to do business together. I was shocked and scared and then Graham threatened me. He forced me to be present when they talked about the deals they were making.”
“You’re going to tell these investigators everything you know. You’re going to help them lock up Graham, Bruno, and Lenny. This is really, really bad stuff, Ella. I don’t understand why you felt you needed to take the drugs to begin with.”
“Because I wanted to be like you,” she cried out.
“I wanted to get a job, get my life together, and make my dreams come true, and I figured I could sell the drugs and make some cash to get started then straightened my life out. I freaked out and panicked. I realized it wasn’t the right thing to do, but Bruno wanted me to bring the drugs back. I couldn’t do that or you and Mom would find out.”
“So you suggested selling them and making the deal for Bruno or Graham?” Fisher Lent asked. She nodded her head.
“He threatened me. I had no choice, so I did it. I told Graham where the bag of drugs was and he got them and then gave me the cash and I sent the money to Bruno.”
“Shit,” Atlas whispered and placed his hands on Sydney’s shoulders. She pushed them off of her and stepped closer to Ella. Ella stepped back. She looked about ready to scream, but instead her expression softened.
“Did he hit you?” she asked and gently touched Ella’s cheek. Ella nodded her head.
“I told him I didn’t want anything to do with any of this and Graham freaked out. He smacked me, grabbed me by my throat, and told me I was his and I was in this with him.”
“This is a serious situation, Ella. You’re admitting to selling a significant amount of drugs and accepting the money and making the exchange,” the agent from New York stated.
“Wait a minute,” Sydney said before the other men could say anything.
“She did that, yes, but she didn’t connect these men to make these huge deals. They brought it about themselves. Now, you want her help, you want to place her in further danger with a man who struck her and threatened her so you can get the big bust. Am I right?” Sydney asked in anger.
“It’s a little more complicated than that, Sydney,” Atlas told her.
“Bullshit it is. They want the huge deal. The multi-jurisdictional bust across numerous state lines fr
om Texas to New York. That’s huge. That’s multiple drug dealers, drugs, maybe even guns and dirty money off the streets and never to reach the streets of all those cities. That’s what you want to avoid. That’s the purpose of this multiple-month investigation on both ends. My sister screwed up. I’m not asking that she get off with a slap on the wrist, but sending her to prison, pressing full charges won’t be the answer—it will send her further down the wrong path. If she helps you. If she gives you the information to capture and charge all these criminals, can you make the charges disappear? Can you go easy on her?” Sydney asked, and Ella was shocked. As disappointed and hurt she knew her sister was, here was Sydney still looking out for Ella. Tears streamed down Ella’s cheeks. Sydney held a firm, unreadable expression as Fisher looked at the agents.
“I think we can work something out. It will come down to the information Ella shares and what that brings us overall,” Fisher said.
“That’s fair enough,” Sydney said and reached out to shake Fisher’s hand.
She then turned to look at Ella.
She pointed at her. “You do what they say. You give them all the information they need and you don’t hold allegiance to those dirt bags. This is your life, your last chance to make things right and have a future that’s bright. Take control of it, Ella. I’m done helping you stay out of trouble. I’m done cleaning up your messes. This is your problem and these men are here to help you stay out of jail and live. Don’t disappoint Mom and hurt her more than you have. Grow the fuck up.”
Sydney walked out of the house.
Ella watched Orsin follow her out. She then looked at Fisher Lent and the other agents.
“I’ll do whatever you want. Whatever I know I’ll share with you. Will giving you the locations, the times, and the names of all involved that I know of, be enough?” she asked.
“Oh God Ella, why? Why, baby?” Stella asked and cried as Matt and Jimmy held her between them.
“Sorry, Mom. I’m just not as strong as you and Syd. I guess I’m not good at anything but screwing up.”
“That’s not true. You’ve done plenty of good things, and you even have that job at the boutique and help out Melissa with her kids. You’ve been getting things together. We even looked into those college courses you were interested in. I think you were looking for an easy way out, to make some money so you wouldn’t have to take responsibility and grow up. But you realized your mistake. You didn’t want to sell the drugs for this guy but he made you. I get it and you’ll take responsibility for what you did. When this is over, you have to change. You have to make things right between you and Sydney.”
“I will, Mom. I promise I will. I’ll do whatever I have to get a second chance and to prove to you and Sydney that I can be responsible and make good choices and that I don’t need both of you to hold my hand.”
“Ella, we’re always going to be here for you because we love you. That’s not going to change,” Stella said.
“And we will be here, too,” Matt said.
“Yes, we will,” Jimmy added, and Ella cried a thank you as she hugged her mom and Jimmy and Matt surrounded both of them.
* * * *
“Slow down, Sydney. Sydney!” Orsin called her name but she was so fired up she stomped around the barn, and when he saw her she was kicking the bale of hay with her fists by her side grunting and trying not to scream.
“Honey, it’s going to be okay.”
Sydney shook her head. The tears were in her eyes but she wasn’t crying. She was fuming mad. In fact, he hadn’t even expected her to have such a temper, Syd was always so quiet and sweet. It kind of turned him on as she glared at him.
“Your brother better not come over here right now,” she snapped.
“Whoa, which brother?” he asked, standing where he was. He thought she may want to strike at something and he would be an easy target. She needed to let this out and calm down. He’d be patient for her. He understood what it was like to be so mad.
“Atlas.”
“Yes.” Orsin turned around to find Atlas, Hart, and Juno standing there. Sydney took two steps toward them.
“You son of a bitch! You knew about this. You knew last night when that sheriff of yours called you in for a meeting and you were late for dinner. I saw how different you were acting. Something was up. You knew about this meeting and you didn’t tell me immediately.”
“I couldn’t tell you. They asked me not to in hopes of securing the area around Matt’s house so no one would notice them arriving and talking to Ella. You would have called your sister or headed over here last night to confront her instead of being with us, making love, where you belong.”
“And when did it become your job to decide what’s good for me and what’s not?”
“The moment you gave your virginity to me and my brothers and officially became ours and no one else. We are your official guardians. We’ve staked claim and responsibility over you to protect you, care for you, and love you. That’s what I, what we, are doing. And just so you know, my brothers and I have also claimed temporary guardianship over Ella until someone else comes along and wants to ask our permission for guardianship. So you better understand the rules of Pearl, nevermind the rules of being a lover to four soldiers. We would do anything for you, Syd. Anything. This is your sister who is in deep shit, but because of your relationship with us, because of your father and his friends and living in Pearl, our friends Fisher, Wyatt, and Mark are going to protect Ella and maybe save her from prison time. So don’t be pissed off at me for helping to ensure you, your sister, and your family’s safety by not divulging this meeting to you last night.” Atlas grabbed her around the waist and hauled her close.
“You were where you belong. In our bed, making love to your men and deepening this bond we all share.”
“Grrrr.” She growled and lightly banged her fists against his chest.
Orsin Juno and Hart surrounded her.
“Don’t look so smug, Atlas. I only partially forgive you. I do understand your reckoning about keeping us safe. I’m not used to people, men taking care of me, my mom, or my sister. It’s going to take some getting used to. And right now I can’t even wrap my brain around that entirely and accept it from you guys because I’m so flippin’ mad right now I want to hit something.”
Orsin gently caressed her arm, and Atlas looked down into her eyes and cupped her cheeks.
“Apology accepted. Now kiss me before we take a little walk, calm down, and then head inside to see your sister and mom and find out what the next steps are.”
She leaned up on tiptoes, and Atlas met her lips with his and kissed her.
She took his hand and Orsin’s. Orsin kissed her cheek, and she looked straight ahead as the five of them headed toward the gardens.
“I’m not talking to my sister right now. I’m too upset with her.”
“That’s understandable, but she needs you and you’ll forgive her because family is too precious to ignore and let go.”
“I’m glad to hear you say that, Atlas, because considering that the four of you have a father and you can’t forgive what he did to your mother years ago, it’s pretty interesting advice.”
“Now wait one minute. That is different,” Atlas said.
She pulled her hand away from them, and Orsin wondered where she was going with this. He had been thinking a lot about what Sydney said in the truck yesterday and about forgiveness like they were asking her to do for Ella.
“He killed her.”
“You don’t know exactly what happened, and he didn’t. He couldn’t have or the police would have investigated her murder,” she challenged him.
“He caused her heart attack. He made her overwork and get sick. If he were at home with her, then she wouldn’t have died alone. Instead he was at the Rusty Horn.”
“That’s what your father told you, Atlas?”
“No. He didn’t have to. We know that’s what happened. He never said anything to Juno and Orsin when they got
the news.”
“You and Hart were away on a mission and didn’t hear the bad news until three months later. You never asked your father what happened?”
Atlas went to speak and even Orsin understood her meaning.
“I was too angry,” Atlas admitted.
“I’m angry now at Ella. I know those men from New York because I saved her from sleeping with them and getting ruined by their criminal ways. I’ll get over that anger and I’ll make amends, but she’ll have to prove herself. I think you guys should take some of your own advice and talk with Rusty. Find out what happened that day your mom passed away and try to make amends. After all, I’m hoping to sing at his place for a long time, and be here with the four of you and spend the rest of our lives together if you’re interested in that,” she said and blushed then turned away.
Orsin pulled her into his arms and kissed her then released her to Atlas who kissed her, too.
Hart pointed a finger at her and curled it toward him. She stepped closer and Hart pulled her into his arms, kissed her, and then hugged her to him.
“You are a piece of work.”
“You’ll try to make peace with Rusty?” she pushed.
Juno gave her a tap to her ass, and when she turned around he pulled her close.
“We’ll see, Sydney. Now tell us about these guys from New York and how you know them.”
“Let’s walk, this is not going to be pleasant,” Sydney said and figured she’d better leave the part out about Lenny being interested in her. That might send them over the edge, and it really wasn’t important. Bruno, Lenny, Graham, and the other thugs would be busted and put behind bars in no time.
Chapter 15
Rusty was working in his office, trying to get things ready for tonight with two new waitresses joining the staff. He was just organizing his paperwork when he heard the knock on his door.
