get some new underwear.” She frowned as if giving it serious thought. “The only thing that
might take time is finding someone to help with the design end.”
“We‟ve assigned two people to go to Common Space and handle the product launches.
As for the design problem, there are many men and women waiting to see if you‟ll allow them to
design for you.” Kaleb‟s hand slid over her thigh.
“And you already have enough underwear for three women,” Shard added.
She pursed her lips to keep them from spreading into a wide smile. They could be such
organizers that it was fun to throw something at them to mess with their plans. “Um, no, I don‟t
think that will do.”
Shard stretched up and his fingers trailed across her rib cage. Her lips twitched and she
turned her body away from those teasing fingers. A gurgle of laughter burst from her lips as
Shard and Kaleb pounced. She was tumbled onto her back and their fingers danced over her ribs
and stomach. Her laughter rang as their fingers roved over her body. She writhed and wiggled
between them, trying to get away from those tickling digits.
“Please.” She drew in a shaky breath, her stomach aching from laughter.
Their fingers drew back from the vulnerable flesh, but remained poised ready to inflict
more torment.
“Tell the truth or…” Kaleb trailed his fingers over her stomach.
“I really want to get on with our lives. I was teasing.” She tangled her fingers with the
ones poised over her stomach.
“And the rest?” Shard‟s fingers walked up her ribs.
“I have no objection to meeting the men and women who want to design for me. I would
have to see what they can do before I say yes or no. As to the launch…”
“We can‟t leave Nariu right now and there are bound to be other times in our life when it
will be impossible for you to attend such events.” Shard waited, clearly expecting an explosion
of temper.
Lina eyed the two men watching her as if they expected her to rant and rave. They still
had a few things to learn about her. She had wanted to attend the launch, for the most part,
because she had gone to all those before. It wasn‟t something she felt was necessary or even
worth arguing with them. She certainly wasn‟t going to pit herself against them for it. “What will
you give me if I do things your way?”
Kaleb caught the wicked tilt of her lips. He leaned forward, pinning her right hand to her
side using their tangled fingers. “Maybe I won‟t tickle you into compliance.”
“You think threats will get you your way?” She arched her brow.
“We get our way because we are the Ardin. We‟re giving you a semblance of a choice
because you‟re not accustomed to the way things are done in a
thent
.” Shard raised a brow in
supercilious arrogance.
She lunged up, not noticing that Kaleb‟s hand released hers. She hit Shard‟s chest and his
arms wrapped around her, holding her tight against his body. His lips slanted over hers and his
tongue drove deep into her mouth.
Growling, she savored his heady taste. She sucked at him. He pulled her hips more fully
against him and rocked his pelvis against her, letting her feel his stiff cock. Hot male musk
swirled around her, inciting her rising desire.
A hand sliding over her hip announced Kaleb‟s presence a moment before his warm chest
pressed against her back. A trickle of cream seeped from her slit. Excitement flared through her.
She loved being held by these two men and reveled in everything they did to and with her.
“You want us,
i’ma
.” Shard nipped at her lips. “You love us. Admit it.”
Her head came up sharply. She took a deep breath and then admitted, “Yes, I love you,
but that doesn‟t mean you‟re getting your way.”
“Occasionally, you need someone to tell you that you have enough to do. Right now is
just such a time.” Shard‟s tongue glided over her lips as if to soothe the tiny sting. “We both
love, adore, very nearly worship you and are more than willing to take that job.”
Lina‟s head fell to Shard‟s chest moved by his admission of love. “Why do I have a nasty
suspicion that I‟ll hardly ever win an argument in this relationship?”
“It will keep life interesting for you,
nari
.” Kaleb nibbled on her ear. “Ready to give over, Lina?”
“Or do we have to explore the realms of desire and laughter?” Shard‟s hand trailed over
her rib cage.
“You two really need to remember how many pairs of my panties you‟ve destroyed and
I‟m not going to mention the bras.” She laughed and twisted between them. “Ah, well, since you
are the Ardin, I‟ll let you continue to believe that you make the decisions.”
“You little…” Their deep voices erupted simultaneously and fingers attacked her sides.
She shrieked with laughter.
