“Getting pretty sassy, aren’t we?” Spencer murmured, moving toward her. She backed up into the wall. He placed his hands on the wall on either side of her head.
This was not sexy.
Nope.
Indie swallowed heavily.
“I think you might need a lesson in remembering who is in charge here,” Spencer said.
“Not you,” Rock told her.
She glanced over to find him standing next to her, his gaze hot and intense.
“You guys are not going to make out with me in a toilet,” she squealed. “Not. Sanitary.”
Spencer’s lips twitched. “Make out with you?”
Indie could feel herself growing red. “Yeah, make out. You got a problem with that?”
“Not at all. I was thinking of some fun punishment. Well, you might not think it’s fun.”
Her bladder gave an urgent signal.
“Gotta pee,” she said.
Spencer immediately backed away. “Fine, we’ll stand right outside. Slade is probably pacing the hallway. Call out if you need us.” Spencer left.
Rock still stood there.
“Seriously got to pee, Rock.”
“Can help.”
“No. Nope. I can now do this on my own.” There had been several times where they’d had to help her. However, her ribs were healed enough that she no longer needed the hovering.
Part of you likes the hovering.
You like being pampered and taken care of.
Probably because she’d never had that in her life before. She’d always been the one looking after others. So it was no wonder she was lapping up their care and attention so much.
Rock narrowed his gaze at her before leaning around to lightly pat her bottom. It wasn’t a spank. Not even close. So light she barely felt it.
But it felt like a warning.
And it made her shiver with desire and need.
She really felt like tonight was going to be the night they fully made her theirs.

When she walked out of the bathroom, Spencer immediately wrapped his arm around her while Rock walked behind them.
She turned back to look at him. “Why don’t you walk up here?”
He shook his head.
How did she make him realize that he wasn’t her bodyguard?. Sometimes she worried he thought that he wasn’t on an equal level to Spencer and Slade.
Slade was up ahead, talking to an attractive man dressed in all black. He held out his hand to her and she moved forward, slipping her hand into his.
“Well, hello,” the guy said.
“Indie, this is Alaistair. We went to school and university together and he often monitors in here.”
Alaistair stared at her strangely. “We’ve actually met before.”
“Oh, we have? I’m sorry. I don’t remember.” Although there was something oddly familiar about him.
He frowned slightly, then smiled again. “It was a long time ago.”
The way he eyed her was a bit strange. Was he thinking about how she was technically Slade’s stepsister? Or the fact she was with three men?
“Don’t worry about being seen with these three. You’re not the first poly relationship we’ve had at the club. There’re several threesomes here in committed relationships.”
Oh, maybe she misjudged that look.
“We’re not poly,” Spencer said cheerfully. “We’re a reverse harem.”
“Reverse harem?” Alaistair raised an eyebrow.
“Yeah. I’m gonna get a T-shirt explaining it,” Spencer said. “How about I’m in love with a girl but not her two boyfriends? Does that work?”
She sucked in a breath. Did he just say love? Was this seriously the way he was going to tell her that he loved her?
“Jeez, Spence,” Slade groaned.
“What? What’s wrong? You don’t like that explanation?” Spencer asked.
“You love me?” she whispered.
“Uh, yeah. Did you not know that?” Spencer asked.
“Had you told her?” Alaistair asked dryly.
Spencer looked appalled. “Oh, God, Princess. I’m sorry. I just announced that to everyone without telling you first. I just . . . I guess I’ve felt this way for so long that I thought you knew.”
He looked horrified, but she didn’t care. She simply threw herself at him, ignoring the shouts of protest from around her. Yeah, it hurt slightly and she couldn’t hug him that well with her belly. But she didn’t care.
He loved her.
“I love you too, Spencer, so much.” He drew her up into his arms and she held onto him tight. He murmured words of love into her neck as he rocked her gently back and forth.
Then he set her down, cupping her face between his hands so he could kiss her deeply.
“Let’s go home, yeah?” he said.
She nodded. Yes. Time for them to make her theirs. Indie couldn’t remember if she said goodbye to Alaistair, but she saw Margo and Lemon waving at her.
“I’ll get your number and call you,” Margo yelled out across the floor, making Slade sigh. “We’ll do lunch?”
“She desperately needs someone to take her in hand,” Slade grumbled. “Pete is not that someone.”
She thought Margo seemed perfect just as she was.
Spencer belted her into their car and as they drove home, he held her hand the entire way.
Anticipation pumped through her as they headed up the elevator and into the apartment. She loved this place now. The bad memories had been replaced with good and it felt so warm and inviting.
