A Force of Three [Elite Dragons 4] (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting) by Becca van Page A

Her breasts swelled and her nipples hardened. Her clit began to throb and her pussy clenched. By the time she was ready to go to bed at night her panties were soaked through. Nyssa spent half the night tossing and turning, trying to imagine what they slept in, if anything, and what they would look like nude. Now she was dreaming about them for the other half of the night. Great!
    She was scared about the way she felt for Codi, Linton, and Bryden. She had begun to think that the three Healy brothers had been trying to seduce her only so she would spy for them as since she had moved in with them they had backed off slightly. Although they were honest men, she knew that busting this organ-smuggling ring was important to them.
    They all lived in such close quarters that they were bound to work their way under her skin. Not only that, but she had gotten to know them better and had seen how kind, ethical, and sincere they really were. They took every opportunity they could to touch her, albeit in a platonic, nonsexual way. It seemed like it would go no further than that, and she wasn’t sure how much more she could take.
    She was beginning to wonder if she had done the right thing by moving in with the three men, but she couldn’t imagine leaving. Her own home was so close but so far. If she stayed, at least she got to spend time with them. That seemed like the most she could ask for.
    Nyssa stuck her head in the hall, but she saw no sign of Linton. He’d probably wandered back to his bedroom. She headed for the kitchen. Since she knew there was no way she would be getting any more sleep, coffee was just the thing.
    Moving quietly, so as not to wake the others, she crept down the hall and into the kitchen and put the pot on. Soon the aroma of coffee filled the room. Eying the pot, Nyssa realized she’d made enough for four out of habit. She grabbed a mug and filled it. Once she had added milk she sat down at the kitchen table.
    “Are you okay, baby?”
    Nyssa startled, spilling her coffee over her hand at the unexpected sound of Codi’s voice.
    “Yeah, I’m fine.”
    “Can’t you sleep?”
    “No.” Nyssa averted her eyes from his naked chest and abs. He was only wearing a pair of jeans and they weren’t even fastened properly. She had the urge to reach out and touch him. She wanted to know what it would feel like to run her hands over his warm, hard, muscular flesh.
    “You’ve been living on nerves, haven’t you, Nyssa?”
    “Yes.”
    “I’m sorry this is all getting to you. If we could wrap it up, we would.” Codi headed to the coffee.
    “I know. It’s just the waiting. You know?”
    “Yeah, that’s the hardest part.” Codi sat next to her.
    As she thought of the Healys waiting for this thing to end, Nyssa’s chest got tight. While she knew how much they cared about destroying the smuggling ring once and for all, were they looking forward to getting out of Butte and leaving her behind, too? Her lack of sleep had frayed her nerves and made her less in control of her emotions, and before she could stop it, her face crumpled and tears ran down her cheeks.
    However, instead of backing away from her as fast as possible, Codi looked at her with tenderness and cupped her face in his hands. He looked deep in her eyes as he asked, “Darlin’, what did I do to make you cry?”
    Nyssa forced herself to get her tears under control and replied bitterly, “Nothing. I guess we all just want this to be over so you can go home and we can get back to our regular lives.”
    Codi’s face registered shock and then understanding. “You think we’re looking forward to leaving you? Baby, don’t you remember us telling you how sexy you are?”
    When you needed something from me. Nyssa didn’t want to dismiss the praise, but it was hard to believe him when he and his brothers weren’t interested in her.
    She sighed and looked down. How had these three brothers crept up on her and wormed their way into her heart? Sharp pain
