laughter was low, bright. “Yeah. I am,” she agreed. “Deal with it.”
Deal with it? He turned and glanced at Dev. Deal with it? They were so screwed.

Chapter Six
Tally knew the minute Lucian and Devril walked into the Wyman’s large front
room nearly a week later. Several other projects in addition to the military contract had
called them out of town, leaving her alone in the office and oddly at loose ends. She
hadn’t anticipated how much she would miss them or the excitement that sizzled over
her body whenever they were near.
But they were back now and her body was suddenly alive again. The tiny hairs at
the nape of her neck lifted in some sort of primal awareness, drawing her attention
away from the handsome Director of Marketing she had been chatting with.
Her head turned; rather distantly, she noticed the feel of her long, straight black
hair swishing above her hips, caressing the silk of her snug bronze dress. The sensual
feeling wasn’t welcome. It warned her that the sexual tension between them that
afternoon last week had not abated and her body was now primed and eager for their
touch. It was no longer just Lucian her body lusted after, but Dev as well.
Devril had never played a part in any of her sexual fantasies of Lucian, until this
past month. As she had fought for release in her lonely bed over the past week, Devril
accompanied her fantasy image of Lucian, his hands playing over her body as she
imagined Lucian’s cock, his erection filling her mouth as his brother’s filled her pussy.
It had been highly erotic. It had been highly unwelcome. She was having a hard enough
time keeping herself distant from one brother; she didn’t need the other adding into the
equation.
“Excuse me,” she murmured to the young man she had been talking to, and headed
for the bar for another glass of champagne. Liquid courage. She needed something to
see her through this evening.

Wicked Intent
Tally had to admit she had hoped neither Lucian nor Devril would return in time to
attend the small party Jesse and Terrie were throwing to celebrate the six-month
anniversary of the friendly and very lucrative, merging of Delacourte and Conover
electronics firms. Each company had differing strengths and areas of expertise that,
when combined, would eventually make them a leader within the electronic
manufacturing world. That and the government contracts that the two companies
together could now pull in would push them ahead of the game.
Sipping on her champagne, Tally moved farther along to keep a careful distance
between her and the Conover brothers. Damn, she just hadn’t considered that they
would double-team her the way they had. But she should have. It was an oversight that
she had been foolish to make. She knew they were part of the much whispered about
Trojans. A group of elite dominants that often enjoyed ménage sexual practices with
their women.
Several ex-wives of the group had made the mistake of telling a few good friends
about the small group and word had spread like wildfire through the small community
of influential citizens. Exactly what the Trojans were, no one really knew. Sexually
dominant, they were men whose extreme sexual tastes were outside of what would be
considered natural.
Her best friend, Terrie, had married one of the members and Tally knew for a fact
that part of her relationship with her new husband did indeed involve a third partner
sometimes. It was something Terrie spoke very little of, but Tally knew the other
woman had found that something that had always been missing in her life.
Not that Jesse wasn’t extremely possessive of his new wife. He was. The love that
connected the two was impossible to miss. Jesse never so much as looked at another
woman. But he did sometimes share his wife.
Lucky Terrie.
Tally sighed as she wandered through the open garden doors and escaped the
stifling tension following her in the house.
