Chapter Seven

Blair

"I think I need to sit," I say but my voice sounds far off.

An hour ago, I was crying, thinking I would never have a family, someone to love me, or share my life. And now the three men I have always had a crush on, loved from afar, are offering me my dream. It's bloody terrifying, to be honest.

Dax takes my hand and leads me back to Ford's lap. Which is not exactly helping with clearing my thoughts. His erection once more rests against my ass and the thought of letting him fuck me with the thick appendage sends fear and excitement blasting through my system.

"I've never done anything like that," I say softly after long moments of silence.

"Babe," Ford says behind me. "Neither have we. But we will figure it out together."

"You've never all been with the same woman?" I ask.

"No," all three reply in unison.

"But you've all been with women before?"

None of them answer me but I know the answer. I can see it on their faces. I'm not stupid enough to think they've never had sex. They are attractive, virile men, of course they've had sex.

"It doesn't matter," I say quickly. "I'm just trying to say…" I drift off.

"Say what?" Dax asks at the same time Holden breathes the word, "No."

I feel my face redden again for the millionth time as I lower my gaze. I know he has figured out what I am trying and failing miserably to put into words.

"Are you a virgin, Little Dove?" Holden asks gently and I nod. "Fuck me." That is all he says before leaving the room and heading toward the kitchen.

Ford, Dax, and I sit in silence as we listen to Holden move around in the kitchen. Long moments later, he emerges with three beers and a wine cooler.

"I think we could all use a drink," he says.

"I'm sorry," I mumble. "Is that a problem?"

I feel so embarrassed to have to talk about this with them. I know very few women my age are still walking around as virgins, but I just never found anyone I was willing to be that vulnerable with.

"No, Babe," Ford says in my ear. "It's not a problem. Just unexpected. But I am happy you told us."

"How is this possible?" Dax asks as he scrubs a hand down his face. "How can it be that someone hasn't swept you off your feet? You should have a Partner by now. Someone to take care of you and love you."

"I'm glad she doesn't," Holden mutters, glaring at his friend.

I laugh freely and I feel Ford place a kiss on the side of my neck. "Have you met men my age?" I ask. "They act like high school boys. Besides, everyone is holding out for a fertile Partner."

Blair squirms on my lap as we all sit in silence trying to catch up with everything that has been said in the last twenty minutes. I don't mind the quiet, and I'm happy no other man has snagged her up yet, but I am going to do something sooner or later that may lead to problems.

Subtly, she shifts her hips, grinding her ass against my erection.

"Blair." I nip her earlobe. "Behave."

She sighs loudly before her body melts into mine. "Maybe I don't want to."

"What do you want, Babe?" I ask making sure Dax and Holden can hear our conversation.

For a moment I think she isn't going to answer me, but then she turns her head to face me. "I want you to kiss me again."

"Again?" Holden asks with a frown.

"You know I don't have any self-control when it comes to her," I reply with a grin before spinning her sideways on my lap and lowering my head to hers. I regret nothing and they can't say anything that will make me.

Our lips fuse together, my left hand tangling in her hair and tilting her head exactly the way I want it. Blair moans loudly as she shifts her weight before turning to fully straddle me. I can feel the weight of my friends' stares on us as I continue to ravish her mouth. After long moments she pulls away, breathing hard, and smiling brightly.

"Can I kiss Dax?" she asks nervously.

"Fuck, yes," I breathe out. "You can kiss anyone you want as long as it's one of us."

Dax comes to stand behind my chair and Blair uses my shoulders to lift herself up until she can reach his lips. Her loud moan as she kisses him has my cock thickening even further in my jeans. Her nails dig into my shoulders, drawing a moan from me. Her breasts are pressed up against my face and I can't help myself as I suckle one of her erect nipples into my mouth through the fabric.

Holden is standing behind Blair holding her hips as she runs her hands through my hair. Holden shifts the long blonde length of her hair away from her neck and starts to kiss and nip at the smooth column of exposed skin. I bite down on her nipple lightly and her back arches as she breaks the kiss with Dax to moan loudly.

"Wait," Blair says out of breath, and we all stop immediately. "I don't know…" her voice drifts off.

"Do you trust us?" Dax asks. "You know none of us would ever hurt you, right?"

I hold my breath, waiting for her answer. We have been preparing for this moment for years, but she hasn't been afforded the same luxury. This is happening fast, if you look at it from her point of view. Yesterday, she was a single woman with no idea of what we thought or felt, and now she has been thrust into this new version of reality where we want to keep her forever.

Blair stares at him trying to figure out what he is about to do. "Yes," she says softly.

Dax disappears down the hallway only to return moments later holding a black necktie. We don't ever get dressed up but when my mother passed two years ago, we all needed a suit for the funeral. I know that's where the tie comes from.

"Stand up," I say to Blair when I finally grasp what Dax is about to do.

Holden takes Blair's hand and helps her stand while Dax comes around behind her. "The entire day has been a lot for you to process. And you're feeling overwhelmed. Let us take control and make you feel good."

Blair's gaze connects with mine. I haven't moved from my seat because I'm not sure I can let things progress slowly. I am way too worked up.

"You can stop us anytime you want." I smile gently. "You are in control."

She smiles before nodding. Dax places the tie over her eyes and knots it off behind her head. "Let's go somewhere more comfortable for everyone involved." He takes her hand and leads her down the hallway to the master bedroom, Holden and me following close behind.

Since we got back, we have been working on perfecting this room for the four of us. We have a custom-made bed, big enough for the four of us, and a walk-in closet that can hold all our things. Once she fully accepts us, we will redo the rest of the rooms in whichever way she chooses. We bought this house with her mind. It won't be a home until she is living here.
