I leaned back against Riven’s chest as he lay propped against the pillows, his arms going around me and fingers stroking my belly through the oversized T-shirt of Atlas’s I wore. I hadn’t wanted the fancy nightgowns or pajamas tonight. I’d wanted the comforting scent of one of my guys.

Atlas’s scent had always been the most calming to me. Like my very own Xanax when I was stressed or on edge.

He laid sprawled out at the foot of the bed, broad chest on display as he massaged my feet. “Like you in my shirt,” he said, a soft smile playing on his lips.

I tugged it tighter around me. “It’s cozy.”

Kai scoffed. “Not as cozy as my muumuu would’ve been.”

I couldn’t hold in my laugh. “Next time.”

He rolled to his side and took my mouth in a long, slow kiss that made everything in me dip and roll. “I’m going to hold you to that.”

Phoenix traced a pattern on my thigh. “You feel better?”

This afternoon had taken it out of me. After Jewel’s ominous warning, the guys had guided the conversation back to happier topics. Jewel had told me all about my mom growing up. Funny stories about the trouble she’d gotten into. Sweet stories about their family traditions. And she’d asked me a million and one questions about myself.

By the time she’d left, I was exhausted. Atlas had made us dinner and then I’d wanted nothing more than a shower and bed.

“I’m okay. I think I’m just on overload.”

Atlas’s fingers left my foot and trailed up my calf. “That’s more than understandable.”

Riven nuzzled my neck as he inhaled my scent. “You’ve been through more than anyone should have to. It’s okay to press pause and say you need a break.”

I nodded. That was exactly what I needed. A mental escape where the entire world faded away around me.

Kai trailed a finger down the column of my neck. “Let us take care of you?” His finger continued its path, circling around my nipple.

My breath hitched as the bud tightened. “What did you have in mind?”

Phoenix’s fingers trailed up the inside of my thigh. “You do nothing, just lie back and feel. We’ll take your mind off everything else.”

His hand stilled as he reached the apex of my thighs and his eyes sparked. “No underwear?”

I shrugged, a smile playing on my lips. “I’m kind of in Kai’s camp when it comes to underwear.”

Kai grinned before leaning in to kiss me, his tongue stroking mine. “My Pip knows how to live.”

“It is handy.” Phoenix ghosted a finger across my core, and goose bumps erupted on my skin.

Atlas sat up, his hands skating up my leg. He looked at Phoenix who nodded. “Two is always better.”

Atlas chuckled as his finger teased my opening.

“Mmmmm.” I let my head fall back against Riven’s chest.

“Not quite yet,” Kai said.

In a flash, he’d whipped Atlas’s T-shirt off of me and I was completely bare to them. But I wasn’t bashful at the fact that I was exposed while they all still wore flannel bottoms or sweats.
