Seeing Jesse Wyman cuffed to the bed, so
    horny he was about to explode as she and Terrie tormented him, was a pleasant
    memory. Knowing it only made him more wary of her made it all the more sweeter.
    Now there was a man who understood that it just wasn’t wise to tempt her fury.
    “No. I’m not upset over that,” she chuckled. “I actually enjoy that deer-in-the-
    headlights look he gets each time I remind him of it.”
    Terrie’s burst of laughter spurred her own.
    “Yeah, he’s even more scared of you than he was to start with.” Terrie fell back on
    the bed, giggling at the thought. “He dares me to even mention it.”
    Tally shook her head as she lay back as well, staring up at the ceiling. “That was
    fun,” she admitted. “It’s even more fun knowing he’s wary now. Perhaps that’s why he
    refused my request to stop the transfer to Conover’s.” She sighed, admitting she may
    have shot herself in the foot now.
    Terrie breathed out roughly at that. “That wasn’t why.”
    Turning her head, Tally watched her questioningly. “Then why?”
    Terrie glanced at the door. “You can’t breathe a word that I told you. I don’t think
    I’m supposed to know.”
    Tally rolled her eyes. “Yeah, yeah, yeah.” She waved her hand expressively. “Pinky
    promise and all that stuff. Now spill.”
    “Lucian made it a condition of the merger,” she said softly, as though afraid the
    walls had ears. “I remember hearing them discuss it one evening before the wedding.
    Jesse was astonished at the request, until Lucian uhh…” She stifled her laughter.
    “What?” Tally could feel her nerves increasing now.

    “Well, Lucian informed him quite frankly that if he and Devril didn’t fuck you
    soon, their dicks were going to rot off from lack of use.” Terrie was fighting to hold
    back her laughter. “I thought it was hilarious. Then, Jesse made some weird comment
    about twins and their bonds and they began discussing the merger again. But I sensed
    an undercurrent there. Lucian isn’t playing, Tally. He intends on sharing you with
    Devril.”
    “Hell.” She stared up at the ceiling again, trying to make sense of why Lucian
    would go to such lengths to get her in his bed.
    “Jesse isn’t telling me much about this,” Terrie told her worriedly. “But I get the
    impression, Tally, that whatever happens, it won’t be with just one of the brothers. And
    it won’t be just occasionally, as it is with the others. Jesse makes it sound as though Dev
    and Lucian will share you permanently.”
    That worried Terrie. Tally could see the concern in her friend’s gaze.
    “Yes, well, let them plot and plan.” She shrugged as she gave her friend a smile
    filled with false confidence. “I can handle it, Terrie.”
    The thought of both men sharing her, taking her on a daily basis, wasn’t nearly as
    worrisome as the flare of excitement and mingled possessiveness she was beginning to
    feel for both of them.
    “Tally, can’t you tell me why you’ve been upset with me?” Terrie asked her,
    suddenly changing the subject, surprising her with the question. “We’ve been friends
    for so long. I hate having this between us.”
    Friendships equaled complications, especially when they were as close as she and
    Terrie were.
    She took a deep breath and turned back to look at her friend. “I’m not upset with
    you,” she said in resignation. “I’m upset with myself.”
    Rising from the bed, Tally glanced at Terrie’s questioning expression before pacing
    to the high window beside it.

    “I came into the office the evening you were there with Jesse and Lucian,” Tally
    finally said, a wry smile tipping her lips. “I was horribly jealous, you know.”
    “Jealous?” Terrie turned back to her at the incredulous question. “Why?”
    “Because you were with Lucian,” she said softly, seeing the moment that Terrie
    realized exactly what she meant.
    Terrie blinked in surprise.
