Alexander, Kortny - Come and Get Me [Whispering Mountain 3] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) (6 page)

Eyes narrowing, Kane shook his head and all but growled. “That’s not what I’m talking about.”

“Okay, what am I missing?” Remy asked, feeling even more confused.

“Just take a good long look at our little
princess
.”

Remy noticed how the last word was hurled out with such bitterness, but he did as his brother asked. He turned and took a long look at May. She had on snug jeans and a long-sleeved T-shirt. He didn’t notice anything…at first.

His eyes started with her black hair. It was longer and shinier than he remembered, but it had been a few months. Her skin seemed to glow.
Oh dear God
, he wanted to taste her sweet, golden-brown skin, but he shook those thoughts away. He was missing something, and he wanted to know what it was. His eyes went down to her breasts. They looked lovely and plump. The T-shirt was a little loose, so he couldn’t see everything, but once his eyes locked onto her slightly curvy hips, his mouth watered.

Wait. A. Damn. Minute.

It was as if she knew what he had figured out in those long, silent minutes. May’s head snapped up, but Remy’s head swung back in the direction of his brother. Kane looked over at him and nodded once, still looking pissed, and now Remy knew why.

He turned back to May and her slightly curvy hips, plump breasts, and teary eyes. “Holy. Shit! Why didn’t you tell us?” Remy tried his best not to sound angry or hurt but he was.

May remained silent.

Kane answered for everyone. “You’re pregnant.”

Chapter 7

May wanted to scream! She should have known those two would have figured it out eventually.
Damn, that Kane has X-ray vision.
The minute he laid eyes on her, she knew
he
knew. It wasn’t as if she would not tell them when she was better prepared to handle their reactions, but she didn’t see this coming.

Hell.
She hadn’t even seen a doctor about it yet. She hadn’t had one symptom that would have alerted her that she could be pregnant. May had unintentionally mistaken the morning sickness for her allergies going into overdrive.

She’d never missed a period a day in her life. It was like clockwork once she’d started taking the birth-control pills that gave her a menstrual cycle every three months. So when she’d stocked up for the occasion and nothing happened, she bought a test three nights ago. When she was suddenly swept up in all of the craziness, as impossible as it was, she had forgotten about the pregnancy test.

Neither man was speaking, just staring at her. The silence was killing her.

“Stop looking at me like that.” She wiped harshly at her eyes just as the tears finally burst free.

“I can’t be around her right now, Remy.” Without another word or even a backward glance, Kane stormed out of the room. His heavy footfalls echoed through the silent hallway.

May jumped at the sound of a door slamming in the distance.

“I would apologize for my brother’s reaction, but I can’t.” She watched as Remy paced slowly back and forth. “Wow.” He looked over at her, rubbing his day-old beard with his hand, and shook his head in disappointment. “Wow.”

May wanted to move closer to him. She wished he would hold her, but the hurt in his eyes was hard to ignore. She wanted him to do anything besides say
wow
. She was now a full-blown waterworks show. The tears wouldn’t stop falling so she let them flow unchecked. “I was going to tell you both—”

“Why didn’t you, May?”

The abrupt way Remy had cut her off was telling. He was angry with her, but he wasn’t quite ready to storm out like Kane had. He wanted an explanation, and he was willing to listen to what she had to say. That was a good sign.

“We’ve called you dozens of times, and you never once picked up the phone. Never responded to any of the voice mails or text messages. We were getting so desperate to see you, to be with you, that we were about to get your sisters involved.” He stood with his arms folded, consuming all the air in the room. “How long have you known?”

How long have I known?
No answer would be the right answer. She knew he was going to be disappointed in her no matter what she said. At least he wasn’t raising his voice, nor had he walked out of the room. “Three days.” She jumped, startled when a harsh grunt filled the room. His eyes narrowed, and he shoved his hands through his hair. She figured some poor vase or picture frame would go flying through the air at any moment. “I found out just before all of this chaos with Timmons started.” Her legs felt like warm jelly.

She walked to the sofa and sat down onto the soft cushion, planting her face in her hands. She knew Remy was watching her every move, and it made her even more nervous. It wasn’t like she had intended to walk around town flaunting a protruding belly and never tell these men what was going on. She just…she screwed up. Big time. That’s what she had done.

“Okay.”

The sudden sound of Remy’s voice slashing through the air caused her to jerk her head up in his direction. Consumed by her own thoughts, for a moment she had forgotten he was there.

Remy yanked his hands from his hair and slowly stalked over to where May sat. Once he settled in beside her he stroked her shoulders and then began wiping her tears from her face. “You don’t know how much I’ve missed you.”

She nodded. “I swear I wasn’t trying to hide this from either of you. It’s just that I had some things I needed to figure…” His thick finger pressed against her lips to silence her.

“May, I don’t think you’re the type of woman to keep something so important from us. And I’ve been around your sisters long enough to know that if they’d had any idea you were pregnant, they would have either told us or been on your case until you did it yourself. Finding out my woman is pregnant is the most exciting news I could ever get.”

Your woman?
She let that statement slip by.

She saw the truth in his eyes. The wide, gleaming smile only solidified it. Of course they noticed the slight change in her body. They had explored every inch of it. Her breasts were a little plumper, and her slender hips were slightly curvier, but her stomach still remained flat. Her skin was healthier, almost glowing, but she just assumed the excitement was causing her to see things.

She moved closer to Remy. The scent of sandalwood and man were driving her wild. He was watching her intensely. Her hand gradually rose, stopping only when it cupped his cheek. She could feel the stubble on his face, and she loved the way it pricked against her fingertips. The roughness of the skin against her hands vibrated through her body. She couldn’t help but close her eyes and enjoy the feeling.

“I’m sorry.” The hoarseness of her voice surprised her. She locked eyes with Remy, cleared her throat, and tried again. “I’m so sorry. I hadn’t planned on sharing that night with you and Kane, but I did. I know my sister has made a life with three of your cousins, but I was…”

Embarrassed? Ashamed?

How did she describe how she felt to him? Of course she had envied Summer. Her sister was in love and happily married to three men. They loved her, cherished her, and she’d never seen her sister happier. But May never imagined herself spending the night with
two
men. One man, sure. But two?

Although she had nearly drooled the first time she had met them, she never imagined things would go as far as they had with Remy and Kane. As much as she’d wanted to be proud of what she had shared with these two wonderful men, reality had hit her hard. She had been ashamed of herself, of her actions. And then too much time had passed by.

“I was ashamed of the way I behaved.”

Remy’s eyes widened at the revelation. He turned into the palm that was still cupping his cheek and kissed it. “May, you never had a reason to be ashamed of the night we shared together. Did we make you feel that way? Was there something we said to upset you?”

She shook her head. “No. I just…it was the most intense night of my life, Remy. I didn’t know how to handle it the next day or the day after that. Then I had let too much time go by, and I just knew the two of you would be so angry. So I just avoided your calls altogether. I know it wasn’t smart.”

“No. No, it wasn’t.”

“That one night with you and Remy changed everything. There wasn’t a day that passed by that I didn’t think about you two persistent lug heads. During the drive back home after I left your house the next day, the realness of what we’d shared was no longer a fantasy that played out in my head.” She let out a heavy sigh.

“I’m not like Summer. She followed her heart with ease. I, on the other hand, battled with the fact that at an early age I was taught that I only get one love of a lifetime. That piece of knowledge severely clashes with you and Kane.”

She appreciated the fact that Remy sat quietly, letting her get everything off her chest.

“I had an epiphany just before I learned of the pregnancy. It took a while for me to concede it to myself, but I know I’m ready to embark on a relationship with both you and Kane. I just didn’t know how to tell either of you.”

May stood up to leave, but Remy pulled her back down on the sofa. She didn’t have time to prepare herself for his overpowering aggressiveness. Remy’s lips covered hers hard and fast. She moaned against his lips as his kiss deepened. He pulled her closer, positioning her on his lap. His hands seemed to be everywhere all at once.

May wrapped her arms around his neck. She felt helpless, surrendering to his touch. Feeling the rough tug on her shirt, she raised her arms and allowed Remy to pull it over her head and toss it to the floor. Next came her bra. Her breasts felt heavy and needy. As if anticipating the gentle strokes of his tongue, her nipples puckered, becoming painfully tight.

Remy leaned back and eyed her breasts. He cupped each one, testing the weight of them, and groaned. “So beautiful.” He took one nipple into his mouth. When May jerked, he stopped and looked up at her. “Tender already?”

“No.” She shook her head and grinned. “I’d forgotten how it felt to have you sucking my nipples.” She pressed his head downward. “Please don’t stop.”

Remy groaned again as he nibbled and sucked at her nipples. He wrapped his arms around her, pulling her closer. He sucked in as much of her breast as he could before letting go and switching to the other. May tunneled her fingers in his hair and cried out. They had barely begun, and she was ready to orgasm.

* * * *

Remy knew he should be angry, but how could he be? He had the woman of his dreams sitting on his lap, breasts bared for him. Her nipples were like delectable, sweet berries. He couldn’t get enough of her, didn’t think he ever would.

She was carrying his baby. Or Kane’s. It didn’t matter. It was his nonetheless. The thought of watching her belly grow rounder, her body changing, had his dick growing harder. He could feel the teeth of the zipper biting into his tender skin.

He kissed her once again but kept her breasts firmly in his grasp. It was as if he was afraid she’d take them away from him. “I need to be inside you now, May.” It took everything he had not to rip her clothes from her body. This was the effect she had over him. It was an urgent need, always pressing him to be with her, inside her.

“Wh–what are you waiting for?” She hopped up and began shucking her clothes before he could even move.

Damn how he missed that sexy, teasing grin. The woman had a ferocious sexual appetite, just like him. After removing his weapons and placing them on a side table, he damn near ripped his shirt in half as he pulled it over his head. He was all thumbs. That was what he felt like as he tried to get his jeans unbuttoned and over his painful erection.

When he was free of his clothing, he sat on the sofa, and May followed. She climbed onto his lap, gripping his cock in her hands as if to guide it inside of her slit. He held firmly to her arms.

“May, it will hurt that way. Preparation, princess.”

“Does this feel like I need preparation?” She let go of his cock and grabbed one of his hands, guiding it to her wet, tender folds.
Wet?

He looked at her with such surprise. “I haven’t even touched you.” Yet that didn’t stop his hand from caressing her, sliding inside of her. He had to feel her. When he dipped two thick fingers inside of her, she moaned and rested her head against his chest.

“Now, Remy.”

It was a low, strained whisper, but he’d heard her loud and clear. He wouldn’t deny the request. He removed his fingers and lined up his cock to her slit. “Damn, woman.” Pushing his cock inside of her, working it in inch by inch, her pussy squeezed and pulsated around him.
