ing off for one reason or another.

“It looks great,” Trevor says, looking at the table we just moved.

“Not bad at all,” I agree.

“Absolutely beautiful,” Cody says, joining us. “Dad would be proud.”

“Yeah?”

I never had the chance to meet their father, but from what I can tell, he was a wonderful man, a patient father, and a good husband. Sometimes I regret the fact that I never got to know the Claw family while their dad was alive, but I’m happy we’re doing something special in his honor and in his memory.

“I completely agree,” Lee says from across the room. He makes his way over to us and I can’t help the way my eyes glide over his toned body. He took his shirt off earlier, so now he’s just wearing work boots and jeans: a sight that makes my mouth water.

Cody notices.

“Like what you see, darling?” He says, coming up behind me. He wraps his arms around my belly and kisses my neck.

“Yes,” I whisper, unwilling to admit just how much of an effect this is having on me.

I don’t want to say exactly how wet I’m getting or how much I really am starting to crave them touching me. Being with the Claw brothers is like being aroused constantly. It’s like a shot of whiskey in my very soul.

But multiplied by three.

“Well, there’s plenty more where that came from,” Trevor says. He and Lee come close until all three of them are surrounding me, touching me, caressing me. Trevor runs his hands over my breasts while Lee cups my face and kisses me deeply, owning my mouth.

This is what I’ve been missing, I realize.

This is what I’ve been waiting for.

All of this time, I thought that I needed to be on my own. I thought that I needed time to figure out who I am as a person and what I want from life. As it turns out, what I really needed was someone – three someone’s – to take care of me.

Being with my wolf men isn’t easy.

Life with them is never going to be totally simple.

Things will be complicated and there will be days when our relationship is hard and we all feel like quitting, but I know that every day that we work hard, every day that we try, it’s going to be totally worth it.

Lee, Cody, Trevor, and I are going to have something great.

We’re going to have our happily ever after.

And it all started with a heist.
