Chapter 15
Piper
Icould hear the partydownstairs from my bedroom. The music beat through the floorboards, making it impossible to ignore it. Obviously, since I was the help, I wasn’t invited. However, that didn’t stop me from wanting to sneak a peek.
Flipping the page of my book, I forced myself to stare at the pages even though I wasn’t really getting any of the story in. The book was some paranormal romance about vampires and werewolves, something that wouldn’t happen in the real world, and I couldn’t get into it, not when I had my very own set of panty-dropping men to daydream over.
Giving up, I threw the book to the side and stood from my bed. Maybe a nice bath would help me forget about the party I was missing out on. I disrobed on my way to the bathroom, rolling my shoulders as I unhooked my bra.
Starting the water, I poured in some bath salts I had bought today on my shopping trip. Usually, I wouldn’t waste the money on such needless items, but now that I didn’t have to worry about food or housing, I found myself with more money than I was used to in the last few months.
Spending the day outside of the house had been odd. I’d already gotten used to getting up early and working until I passed out at night. At first, I hadn’t known what to do with myself. I had climbed into my car and drove around town trying to figure out what to do first.
Then I found the car wash place. I figured I might as well get that done while I made a plan of action. So, while they cleaned my car inside and out, I flipped through my phone checking up on all the things I had missed out on. I made a list of bills that had piled up that needed to be paid as soon as I got my first check.
My phone had been the only thing I had kept, well, that and my car, since I had given up my apartment. I even had to give up my cat, Marco, named after my cheating ex-boyfriend. I might be able to live in a car but forcing my cat to would have been torture not only for me but the poor beast as well.
When the water filled the tub, I stepped into the steaming liquid and sighed. I piled my hair up on my head in a messy bun and then sank into the water up to my neck. That’s the stuff.
This bath salt had been an impulsive purchase while I strolled through the local superstore. That and tampons. I was due for my period any day now. I didn’t want to be wearing those things that could double as a diaper while surrounded by so many hot guys.
Thinking of the masters made my mind wander back to the party downstairs. I sadly couldn’t hear anything over the music, and I wondered what kind of party it was. A birthday party? A promotion at work? Or maybe it was a fundraiser?
I didn’t know why I was bothered by the party at all. I had never been a big socializer, to begin with. Parties were things I flinched at the thought of, let alone going to it. Maybe it was the fact that I knew the men I’d started to see as mine were down there, no doubt being drooled over by some rich and frivolous women. They were all probably batting their eyelashes at them and shoving their fake boobs into their arms.
Snorting, I shifted in the tub. They were probably having the time of their life, Rayne most of all. He seemed to be the type to thrive on the attention, even if he wouldn’t give me the time of day. Drake and Allister would let the women come to them. They weren’t the type to chase after anyone, well, besides me but that’s only because they were messing with me. At least Drake did, I hadn’t spent much time with his twin. I was sure there was nothing more to Drake’s teasing than just that because he could.
Now, Wynn, I wanted to say he wouldn’t even be interested, but I knew a charmer when I saw one. I’d been on the receiving end of his flirting, and it was merciless. The women downstairs, I was assuming there were some unless I had my wires all crossed, wouldn’t know what to do with themselves. They were probably arguing over who got to have him first. I chuckled a bit at the thought, and even to my ears, it was bitter.
Stop it, Piper. You’re the maid. They’re your employers. What did you think would happen?
Forcing the thoughts down, I focused on my little fantasy. Antoine and Marcus with their aloof personalities wouldn’t even pay any mind to the women around them. Antoine might talk to them, but only to the extent of what was polite, never giving them the chance to misunderstand him. Marcus would just glare, his go-to for whenever he caught sight of me, not that he had spoken two words or any words to me for that matter to me. Those hateful eyes would be enough to scare any unwanted attention away.
My line of thoughts made me think about my own dating experiences. It’d been a while since I’d been with anyone. I didn’t keep boyfriends for very long. Usually, they thought I was too abrasive to keep around. I didn’t pay enough attention to them.
If they were worth paying attention to, then I would. I snorted and rolled my eyes.
I couldn’t see myself ever getting bored with any of the Durand brothers. They were all unique in their own way. If anything, I might die of a heart attack from the way they kept surprising me. Those ladies down there didn’t know how lucky they were.
Whichever one of the brothers chose them would no doubt take care of them. They’d make sure they didn’t leave until they were fully satisfied. A wistful sigh escaped from my lips. Bone liquefying kind of satisfaction. Of course, the masters would send them on their way as soon as they were done, but they would have a happy look on their faces, all too happy to have a one-night stand with them.
I know I would be.
My body warmed at the thought of any of their hands on me. That thought turned into a dark fantasy where I was surrounded by all six brothers, each of them taking their turn to touch and caress me. As my mind wandered so did my hands, cupping my breasts and tweaking my nipples until I gasped. I imagined Wynn’s long fingers slipping between my thighs and rubbing circles around my clit.
My breathing came in short pants now as I leaned my head back on the edge of the tub. Drake and Allister would take the fight to my lips, each of them trying to outdo the other, while Rayne would fondle my breasts. Marcus’s thick fingers would tease my pussy, only dipping one finger in until I was begging for more.
Antoine, however, would not share me. He would watch from the sidelines, those intense eyes staring at me while his brothers devoured me, watching and waiting his turn until he could have me. His pale eyes would lock with mine as his brothers worked me until I cried out in ecstasy.
When I came down from my self-inflicted high, I felt like a fool. I laughed bitterly as I rubbed a wet hand over my face. What the hell was I thinking? None of them would be with me, let alone share me. I was a lowly maid, nothing more.
I snorted, thinking of what Darren had said. Apparently, I wasn’t even trusted to be that either.
Climbing out of the tub, I wrapped a towel around myself. As I pulled on a long t-shirt and boxer shorts I’d stolen from an ex, I heard something from outside my room. Inching my way toward the door, I checked that it was indeed locked.
I moved away from the door but heard it again and more distinctly.
A moan and not just any moan, but a woman’s.
