the background, but the tequila helped me keep it back. Still, I knew
if I let myself, I could succumb to another round of tears for the loss I felt.
My company talked about several ways to get me out of my funk. They even
started planning a trip to the Caribbean. I nodded and smiled, drifting back
into my quiet despair. Nothing would ever be the same for me, no matter how
much each of them said it would. Reed and Kane had changed me forever. I knew
no man could ever open me up the way they had. The vibrancy of the life I’d
peaked at with Reed and Kane was gone. The only future I could expect now was
dull, gray, and so very cold.
    Another knock on the door and the chatter around me stopped.
    In a hushed tone, I threatened, “Amy, I swear if you open
that door I will never forgive you.”
    From the other side of the door, a voice I recognized was a
relief.
    “Mia, open the door,” Lex stated flatly.
    “Ask him if he’s alone,” Misty requested. I hadn’t thought
about the possibility that Reed and Kane might be with him, so I was glad that
she had.
    “Are you by yourself, Lex?” Mia asked.
    “Yes.”
    Mia swung the door open. “Hi, sweetheart.”
    Lex stood in the doorway looking stunningly sexy in jeans
and a black sweater. “Did you tell Lea what I have planned?”
    “What plan?” I snapped.
    He held up his hand but didn’t turn away from Mia.
    “No, Sir. I did just what you said and waited for you to
come.”
    He leaned in and kissed her. “That’s my, baby.”
    Ella stood up and extended her hand in her normal corporate
flair. “You must be the guy that swept my cousin off her feet.”
    “Yes, I am. You’re Ella, right?” He took her hand and shook
it.
    I could tell Ella was impressed that he knew her name. “The
one and only. I’m happy to meet you.”
    “That remains to be seen, Ella.” Lex looked at my youngest
sister next. “You are?”
    “Amy. But I bet you already knew that, too, didn’t you?” She
smiled and took his hand.
    “So that means you must be Mia’s sister.” Lex offered his
hand to Misty.
    Misty nodded but didn’t take it.
    The corners of Lex’s mouth curled up. “Just like I
imagined.”
    Then he turned to me. “Hello, Lea.”
    I choked out, “Hi, Lex. This is more of a female party. I’m
not sure why you’re here.”
    He sat down on the travel chest that was doubling as my
coffee table. He grabbed both my hands. “You’re about to find out. In fact, all
of you are.”
    I’m not sure if it was the tequila or the fatigue, but I
couldn’t argue with him. I wanted to hear him out.
    The others must’ve been in the same frame of mind, as all I
could hear was my own breath.
    Mia came and sat beside him. He handed my left hand to her
to hold while keeping my right hand in his.
    Trembling, I said, “Tell me, please.”
    Lex nodded. “Okay. First, I know Kane screwed up with you.”
    “No. It’s not like that, Lex.”
    “Quiet, Lea. Hear me out. Kane came to me and told me what
happened. I found it odd that he took things too far with you since he and Reed
are the best trainers I have at the club. Sex shouldn’t have been on the table
for your second lesson. Not yet. I’d made it clear to both of them what I
expected with you.”
    “What was that?”
    “To test you and see if you and your cousin here had similar
tastes.” He patted Mia on the leg. “I thought you might be like her the second
I met you, Lea. You’re a submissive, all right.”
    “This is crazy talk,” Misty snapped. “I can’t believe any of
this.”
    Lex turned to her but didn’t say a word. Apparently, his
stare alone was enough to silence Misty.
    After what seemed like minutes, Lex turned his eyes back to
me. “Like I was saying, I’d set up your training in a very specific order. Reed
followed my instructions for your first lesson, though he told me it was very
difficult for him.
    “How?” I recalled how amazing it had been to surrender to
him and feel his paddle and hand on my
