Teased: Resisting the Billionaire Volume One
Page 90After Sebastian had fled from her, Melanie covered herself up and then lay down by the campfire in total confusion.
It was clear now that it was Alex she had feelings for. It was also clear that Sebastian was a snake in the grass, albeit one who knew how to set her alight with desire. Alex, meanwhile, was holding back, maybe out of fear of losing his inheritance. But Sebastian, as sneaky as he had been, didn't seem to care. Maybe he had a plan never to be discovered. Either way, he was willing to risk everything for her.
God, if only they could have been just one man.
The sound of footsteps in the forest made her sit up, fully alert, straining to see which of the brothers had returned. She longed to tell Alex of her true feelings for him, but what if was Sebastian? Did she want more? God no. No. Please, not with him. Could she be able to resist if he came on to her? If he pleaded his love? What if Alex failed to reciprocate her feelings?
She lost her breath when she saw both brothers appear together in the moonlight.
One of them had a serious bruise over his left eye, near the temple. Hopefully, it was Sebastian.
They had been fighting again over her. She hated violence but couldn't help taking guilty pleasure in the fact that these two prime males were willing to struggle for her. Her heart was beating fast again.
It was less than one hour since one of these men had brought her to the brink of ecstasy before she had banished him into the forest. Now she was even hungrier for love, intimacy, closeness, and bone-shaking, toe-curling, knee-knocking sex than ever before.
Hold on Melanie, hold on. She struggled to compose herself.
"What's going on?" She said breathlessly.
"Don't be alarmed, sweetheart." The one without the cut said.
"I'm not anybody's sweetheart." She replied. Not yet, at least. She wanted truth first. Then they could think about sweethearts and romantic moonlit walks.
"Of course not. Melanie, we're here because--"
Alex interrupted.
"First things first, Melanie. You need to have an idea who's who."
She nodded her head. She was fed up with wondering about that.
"Turn around." She said.
"You mean show our asses to you?" Sebastian said in exasperation. "What good would that do?"
"It'll show me which of you two rocked my world on the sand here an hour ago."
One brother smiled and the other flinched.
Melanie regretted her words instantly. She wanted more alright, but Sebastian didn't need to get the crazy idea that she had or ever would forgive him for his lies. Even if they were all designed to get him closer to her. Even if he was willing to lose a billion dollars to be with her.
