Protecting Lexi (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) (11 page)

“We couldn’t let her date any asshole that came sniffing around,” Max said.

“Let it be known that Amy wasn’t just any girl to be dated, she was our sister. Our dads never had to worry about who she dated. We always made sure they met our criteria,” Kane said with a smirk.

Max’s dad, Carter, said, “And it didn’t hurt that when her dates came around, the boys always answered the door with a shotgun in their hands.” Laughter broke out around them.

“Now, now, it all worked out in the end. Amy married a wonderful family man with great moral values,” Ginny said as she patted Roger’s hand on the table.

Lexi had spent the afternoon getting to know their family. She was very envious. She didn’t have any siblings, and none of her cousins lived close by when she was growing up. She had always wanted a family that she could spend holidays and birthdays with. Alexis had strong feelings when it came to family. She wanted kids and marriage. Looking at the way Kane and Max’s relatives got along made her yearn for something as special as what they had.

After talking to their mother and hearing how wonderful and fulfilling a ménage marriage could really be, she thought things could possibly work out if Max and Kane wanted to pursue a relationship with her. She was excited and looking forward to what she could have with Kane and Max one day.

Alexis went into the house to see if Ginny needed any help with the food. Kane and Max were standing around the grill, pretending to be doing something useful while their dads were grilling the meat for lunch. It was nice to see them standing around talking while enjoying a beer with one another.

Amy was perched on Roger’s lap, watching the boys run around the grass spraying one another with their guns.

“Can I help you with anything, Ginny?” Alexis asked as she leaned up against the countertop.

Ginny looked up at her as smiled. “No, dear, I’m just adding a little more mayonnaise to this potato salad.”

“It looks delicious. I love homemade potato salad. I never eat that premade stuff in the stores.”

“This was my aunt’s recipe. Everyone asks me to make it all the time. If you could get the fruit platter out of the refrigerator for me and take it out to the patio, we should be almost ready to eat. I’ll be right behind you with the salad. But first I want to ask you something, dear.”

Alexis could tell Ginny had something she wanted to talk to her about privately. “Sure. What’s on your mind?”

“I’m concerned about the three of you. I could never imagine what you are going through right now. I’m sure you are simply terrified by what might happen if that creep Lenny should actually find you,” she said with a concerned look in her eyes.

Alexis felt her shoulders lower in defeat. “I’m scared as hell, Ginny. Being around Kane and Max has been a huge distraction for me. They try and keep me occupied around the ranch to help make the time go by quicker. I’m a city girl and I never thought I would learn how to ride a horse. I could never express how grateful I am to have their help. They’ve been so wonderful opening up their house to me and keeping an eye on me. I feel like I’ve imposed on their social life and family time by taking up every moment since I’ve been here.”

Ginny walked to stand directly in front of her. “Please don’t think of yourself as just a job for them. I can see it in their eyes that they think of you as so much more than that. Did you know that you are the first female that they have ever brought around any of us, especially to our home?”

Alexis was surprised by that. She had thought that Kane and Max had women around their family before. A little voice inside her head wanted to scream,
Yes!

“Kane and Max are very private. Ever since they came back from serving their country, they seem to take things and life very seriously. When they were teenagers, nothing seemed to bother them. They were so easygoing. They never talked back and were very respectful to everyone. I think being in the Marines made them stronger and not just in their bodies, but in their minds. They didn’t date or laugh as much as they used to. Max was always the funny character of the two of them. Kane had always been a straitlaced, no-nonsense kind of guy. He’s always been the serious one, but, now, he doesn’t seem to smile like when they were teenagers. I have to say, today I see a huge change in my boys. I see them smile again. I see the love shining in their eyes when they look at you. You brought that look into their eyes again, Alexis.” Ginny reached out and hugged her to her body and said in her ear. “Thank you for showing them the way again. I knew it would take a special woman to awaken them.”

Alexis and Ginny released each other, then Alexis said, “I think they helped me open up also. I haven’t been this relaxed or happy in all my life, Ginny.”

Ginny patted Alexis’s cheek affectionately and said, “Good. Now, let’s get this food outside and eat.”

As they walked out to the patio, Alexis saw the two boys running toward them at full speed.

“Uncle Max, Uncle Kane, come quick, look what we found on the side of the house,” the boys said from around the corner as they ran off again.

Both Max and Kane got up from their chairs and grabbed the two water guns
they also
bought at the store. They were already filled with water as they snuck around the other side of the house so they could sneak attack before the boys knew what hit them.

Lexi could hear screams and squeals coming around the corner as the two boys went running for their lives. Their uncles were hot on their heels, drenching them.

“You boys are no match for retired Marines. Haven’t you learned that by now?” Kane said. He and Max had Blake and Ryan cornered at the end of the dock.

“Now we have you right where we want you. Surrender now and we might be lenient with your punishment,” Max said.

“Never! You’ll never take us alive,” Blake and Ryan said before throwing the guns down on the dock and jumping into the water.

“Oh, my God! Quick, Max, they can’t swim,” Kane said as he and Max toed off their shoes before diving into the water.

When they finally emerged from the water, they found the two boys swimming and laughing, splashing water at Kane and Max. They knew all along how to swim. Kane and Max had been tricked by two four-year-olds.

Lexi, Amy, and Ginny were standing on the dock when Kane said to Amy, “Those boys tricked us. How long have they been swimming on their own now?”

“They took a swim class six months ago. They wanted to surprise you both today.” Kane and Max were now tossing the two boys up high in the air and into the water. “I guess they really do have the evil Walker blood in them like their uncles.”

Before Kane or Max could respond, their dad called them to dinner. “The ribs and chicken are done now. If all of you boys are done playing, you can get out of the water and we can all sit down to eat.”

Lexi could smell the odor of barbecue floating in the air. “Mmm, it smells wonderful. I’m starved!” Lexi said as Ginny handed the boys towels, and they all got out of the water to dry off. Lexi helped Kane dry off his shoulders and whispered so that no one could hear, “I like it when you and Max are all wet. Maybe we should play some water games of our own tonight when we get home?”

Max leaned over her shoulder to say, “Brother, I think she’s challenging us, what do you think?”

Kane turned so he could now face her and said, “We’re always willing to play any games with you that consist of you being wet, Lexi.” He then leaned down to place a soft kiss on her lips before she watched them walk away.

Woo wee, those two sexy men are too hot to handle!
She always did enjoy a good challenge.

After the nice visit with his family, Max was exhausted. All he wanted to do was crawl into bed with Lexi and hold her all night long. His mother and sister got along well with her. His dads were really impressed with how well she was adjusting with everything that was going on. They had even called her a strong-willed woman, and they were proud of their sons for standing up for this woman and protecting her with their own lives. His dads had only one piece of advice to give them. Not to screw things up emotionally between the three of them. It was plain to see they had strong feelings for Lexi. His dads didn’t want them to toy with her heart when this was over.

That was the last thing Max ever wanted. He knew his feelings for her went deep. After the night they had spent together when both of them were deep inside her body, he knew then that he was totally head-over-heels in love with Lexi Brooks. Now, the only thing stopping them was the reason why she was really here. Lenny Cook needed to be found and prosecuted for them to ever lead a normal, healthy life with the woman they loved. He knew his brother felt the same way about her as he did. Max had never seen as much love or devotion shown in Kane’s eyes as he had last night as they made love to Lexi.

When they got home, Kane had gone out back to talk to Billy to make sure everything had been okay around there when they were gone. Max had stayed inside and made them some coffee to go with the rest of the pie their mom had sent home with them. Lexi had gone upstairs to take a shower. They eventually planned to meet up in the family room for dessert. Max couldn’t wait that long. He had gone all day wanting to strip her body and have his wicked way with her.

Max entered the bedroom they had been sharing with Lexi only to catch her bending over naked, rubbing lotion on her legs. He walked behind her and slid a hand down her back toward her head. She began to stand upright when he stopped her.

“Stay right where you are. Hold that position. Better yet, lean forward and place both of your hands on the posts at the foot of the bed. Don’t let go unless I tell you to.”

Max ran his hands along her sides and down to her butt. He loved her ass. It was so plump and inviting. He couldn’t wait for his turn to take her there, soon. Kane had just broken her in, and he didn’t want her to be sensitive when he did take her.

Max took off his shirt and slid his shorts down his legs. He moved closer until his chest was pressed against her back and his cock was wedged into the crack of her ass. His hands slowly slid up her torso just under the swells of her breasts. Max felt her shudder as he tweaked her hardened nipples.

“I love the feel of your skin against mine. Your skin is so soft. I love the way you taste, too,” he said next to her ear as he rubbed his naked body against hers.

“Please, Max, I need you. Please fuck me. I wanted to touch myself so badly in the shower just now while I was thinking about the both of you.”

“Did you touch yourself, Lexi? Did you stick your fingers between your legs to feel how wet you are? Did you touch or fondle your tits as you thought about what we were going to do to you tonight?” Max could feel her body sag at the way he spoke to her.

“No, Max. I thought about it. It’s not the same without your hands on me, or Kane’s. It’s just like when I used my vibrator on myself the first night I was here, and I fantasized about having intercourse with the both of you.”

“You have a vibrator with you?”

“Yes, Max. It’s in the drawer.”

He released her body and turned her around to face him. “Go get it. I want to play with you and your vibrator.”

She walked to the dresser and opened up a drawer. The vibrator was hidden under some underwear. When she pulled it out from the drawer, he saw that it was pink. The vibrator was almost the same length and width as his own dick.

“Bring it here, Lexi, then I want you to assume the position you were in a minute ago.”

He watched as she swayed her hips walking back to him, holding out the pink vibrator for him to take. She then placed both of her hands around the wooden pole.

“Very nice, sugar, now, take a step back and lean your upper body forward slightly.” She did as he asked. “Very good. Now I’m going to turn this toy on and get it nice and wet with your juices.” With his left hand he held onto her hip as the other hand came around the front of her thighs to the front of her mound. The initial touch of the vibrator to her wet pussy almost made her jump out of her skin.

“Yes, that feels so much better when you use it on me, Max. So wicked and erotic.”

He pulled the vibrator away from her pussy and said, “I need to be inside of you, Lexi. I need to feel your tight muscles as they grip my cock.” He grabbed his cock and slid it slowly into her heated core.

“That’s it. Oh yeah, Max. Go Deeper. Harder. Faster.” The words came out haltingly as he thrust deep inside her cunt.

“I’m not going to last long, sugar.” He placed the vibrator against the nub of her clit and felt her body shake and quiver.

“Oh God, Max. I’m so far gone. I can’t hold on much longer. Please, come with me.”

That’s all he needed to hear before his body pounded into hers with increased force and need.

“Baby, I’m coming! Come with me, now!” Lexi screamed and bucked against him as he emptied his seed deep into her cunt. He could feel her body begin to relax as he pulled his now deflating cock from her body. Max wrapped his arms around her body as he kissed her shoulders.

“I need another shower. I feel all sweaty and sticky, Max.”

“Good thing I showed up just in time to shower with you,” Kane said from the doorway.

* * * *

Kane entered the bathroom with Lexi in his arms and turned the shower on. She was rubbing lazy circles on his chest. He could feel her light puffs of breath along his collarbone. “Baby, I’m going to put you down for a minute while the water warms up and I get undressed,” he said before placing a soft kiss on her forehead.

She watched him while he pulled the T-shirt over his head and threw it into the hamper. He then unbuttoned his shorts and allowed them to pool at his feet. He took a step toward her and pulled her warm body against his naked frame.

“I need to be inside you. My body has been humming all day. I feel the need to release my sperm deep inside your womb as I mark your body as mine.” Kane opened the shower door and helped her into the shower. He turned on all of the showerheads so their bodies were covered from every angle so they wouldn’t get cold.
