The Brothers' Virgin Captive by Jenika Snow Page B

for him. There was a dark lust that burned inside of her for him, one that was the polar opposite of the sweet and almost innocent emotions she had for Luca. Maybe it was the situation, or maybe it was because he had freed her from the darkness that threatened to swallow her whole? Whatever it was, she was drawn to him, and felt connected to Arik in a way that rivaled her emotions for Luca.
    “Yes, I do.”
    He nodded slowly. “But you care for me as well.” His statement was blunt, and she nodded again because it was the truth.
    “Yes.” Her cheeks heated over her admission.
    “And you feel like you’re betraying Luca because of your emotions for me?” She didn’t trust her voice, so she nodded again. “What if I told you I care about you in a way I shouldn’t?”
    Anna didn’t know what to say, but his question must have been rhetorical because he kept speaking and didn’t wait for her to respond.
    “What if I also told you I spoke with Luca about my feelings for you, and that the relationship we want to have with you is far from conventional. ”
    Anna took another step back, but Arik wouldn’t let her get far since he kept his hands on her waist. Nothing in her world had been conventional, but was he really suggesting what she thought he was? And did Luca truly speak about her with his brother concerning the three of them together?  
    “It doesn’t seem right.” Right? They lived in a world where young women were auctioned off to the highest bidder, and although there were men who had numerous wives, there were not women who had more than one husband. That was an abomination in the eyes of their society.
    “Anna, everything that has happened in your life thus far has been anything but right.” He pulled her closer to him, and the air left her when her breasts pressed against the hardness of his abdomen. She could feel the individual ripples of his six-pack through his clothing, and a fresh wave of wetness spilled from her. “But I can’t think of anything that sounds more right than me between your thighs while my brother watches.”
    A gasp left her at his crude, yet arousing, words. His mouth was on hers, and she tensed once again, not knowing what she should do. There was no doubt she wanted this, but nothing had been resolved and there was still the matter of Luca.
    He whispered against her lips, “Look, Anna.”   Gently, yet firmly, he turned her head to the side. There was Luca, standing against the doorframe with one ankle crossed over the other and a heady look of pleasure on his face. “You see, my darling,” Arik ran his lips up the side of her cheek and said, “Everything is perfect and right if you let go and trust us.” Arik pulled back and made her look into at him again. “You trust us, don’t you, Anna?”
      He kissed her again, stopping the response that would have come from her. He moved his lips coaxingly against hers, and all she could think of was the fact Luca stood a few feet away watching it all. Her panties were wet, and her body didn’t feel like her own. Was she really going to allow this to happen? Everything was traveling at a dizzying speed, and she couldn’t think, breathe, or comprehend the sensations traveling through her. A part of her screamed   at what in the hell she was doing with Arik and Luca, but another side of her, the one that felt pleasure and excitement over being in his arms and having the man she loved watch the whole encounter had her pressing forward and letting her heart and body lead the way.

Chapter Seven
     
    Anna kissed Arik back, but he wasn’t the type of man to let others lead the way, that much was clear from the short time she had been in his presence. He took control of the kiss, licking every inch of her mouth then pressing his tongue along hers in such a sexually charged way her clit pulsed from the increased blood flow. She was so caught up in the moment that she didn’t sense Luca moving closer until his body heat
