Slick Rock 7

Shelby’s Saviors

Shelby Richmond has recently witnessed the murder of her family and, due to suffering PTSD, is on the run from herself.

Cord and Brandt Alcott are drawn to Shelby, and when she suffers a flashback in the Slick Rock diner, they help her through it and keep prying eyes off of her. When she asks about a job, they offer her a position as a receptionist for their security company and also a room for rent in their house. The two men slowly court Shelby into their beds, but she can’t let go of the past, and they don’t know if the love they have for her will be enough to keep her by their sides.

Evil follows Shelby to the small Colorado town, and her life is in danger. Will Shelby have the courage to hold on to love? Or will the evil take her choices away?

Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation between or among siblings.

Chapter One

 

“Fuck me, would you look at that,” Cord rasped. He’d never seen the woman walking down Slick Rock’s main street before, but she was captivating. Her hair was a combination of many colors, and all of them were totally natural from what he could tell. There were rich browns, lighter ones as well, and tints of red, gold, and blonde, which seemed to capture light within the strands.

Beside him, his brother Brandt said, “Whoa.” Both men stopped in their tracks and watched the woman heading into the diner across the street from the building that housed their cousins’ security company.

Cord exchanged a look with Brandt. They’d intended to head over to the Slick Rock Hotel after a long day of work, but sitting around in the lobby didn’t seem half as interesting as it had a moment ago.

Without a word, they changed direction and followed the woman to the diner.

Cord took the booth opposite the young woman and watched her from the corner of his eye. She was such a sexy little thing, no more than five foot one but voluptuous enough to suit his and his brother’s tastes. He wanted to know the color of her eyes and what her name was, but he didn’t want to be too forward and put her on alert.

The waitress came and took her order, and the sound of the woman’s light, feminine voice sent shivers racing up and down his spine, causing goose bumps to erupt all over his skin. Physically restraining himself from going over there and asking her name was one of the hardest things he’d ever had to do. Cord had never felt so drawn to a woman before, and from the looks his brother was giving her, he felt the same way.

He and Brandt had begun to share women in their early twenties but had never imagined they would have the opportunity to have a full relationship with one special woman between them. That was until they had arrived in Slick Rock and found that their cousins Giles, Remy, and Brandon were in the process of wooing the woman they wanted to share.

Kayli had accepted their overtures, and eventually she had let them into her bed and finally her heart. Now all three brothers worked from home and helped Kayli look after their baby, while Cord and Brandt held things down at the office.

They had been in the small Colorado town for nearly twelve months now and had just moved into their newly built house. Their cousins had asked them to buy into the security company after Cord and Brandt had retired from the police force.

Theirs wasn’t the only polyandrous relationship in Slick Rock. As far as he knew, there were five other unconventional marriages in town. Now that they were settled in business as well as in their house, all they needed was a woman to complete them.

Was she the one they had been waiting for?

A loud crash resonated through the room when one of the waitstaff was accidently knocked by a patron and she dropped the tray of dirty dishes she had been carrying. Cord saw the woman across from them jump, and then she just seemed to disappear from her seat. She slid from the seat of the booth and slipped beneath the table, curling up into the fetal position with her arms around her head, trying to hide her face.

What the fuck?
Quickly moving from his seat, he hunkered down and cautiously reached out. Placing his hand on her calf, he ran it up and down her leg in a soothing motion. He was aware of Brandt standing behind him, trying to block the scene of the woman’s fear from prying eyes.

The whimpering sounds she made nearly broke his heart. This woman had obviously been to hell and back, and he wanted to haul her into his arms and offer her comfort, wrapping her tight in his embrace.

“It’s okay, baby. You’re safe here. No one is going to hurt you,” Cord said quietly but loud enough for her to hear. Keeping up the soothing motions of his hand and nonsensical noises, he felt the tension slowly leave her body. She lifted her head slowly, her fear-glazed eyes meeting his. They were such a beautiful color, a mix of brown and gold with flecks of green, but her irises were nearly drowned out by her dilated pupils. Holding her gaze, he extended his hand to help her from beneath the table and watched as she lowered her eyes. He pushed his attraction aside, more concerned about her well-being, and her face pinkened with embarrassment when she realized where she was.

“Are you okay?” Cord asked when she wouldn’t meet his eyes. She gave him a nod and finally lifted her arm and reached out for his hand. Tingling heat enveloped his hand and shot straight down to his crotch. The trembling of her fingers and palm pulled at his heart, and he wanted to get to the bottom of her fear and help her in any way he could. Her hand was so small compared to his, as well as really cold and clammy. Being as gentle as he could, he pulled her out from under the table, her ass sliding on the linoleum floor. When her head and body had cleared, he helped her to her feet. Keeping his hand around hers, he stood from his squatting position, placed his other hand on her waist, and helped her to her feet. Instead of sitting her back at her own table, he moved backward, gently guiding her to sit next to him in their booth.
