looked like a coin. Confidently, she pulled the trigger, and the gun roared, followed immediately by the metallic ping that echoed through the camp.
“Okay, so who taught you?” Kayne asked, his voice sounding low and husky. His gaze, their gazes, now twinkled freely with appreciation.
Yeah, she liked that they seemed awed.
“That is my business. Now will you help me get the gold? Or do I go in alone?” she asked and heaved the pistol back to Maddox, who caught it with ease.
“You tell us where their hideout is, and we’ll go in and get the gold and split it four ways,” Maddox said.
Eve shook her head, and he frowned. Sadness swept through her. She knew he was only looking out for her safety. Despite her good shooting, she sensed he still thought of her as a helpless female, who was available to him for a quick fuck and to cook him a hearty meal. She realized she’d wanted more than that from these three. Much more.
“No, I go with you. Call it insurance that I’ll get half of the gold bars. Not that I don’t trust you guys. I do. I just want to make sure I’ve earned my share of it.”
“Half?” Riley blinked, obviously surprised at her wanting so much of the take.
“Without me, you have nothing,” she stated, staring at him until he slowly nodded in understanding.
“Let me think about it,” Kayne replied.
“Kayne, she may get hurt,” Riley chastised, and despite the concern in his voice, his objection irritated the daylights out of her.
“Yeah, look what happened the last time,” Maddox chimed in.
“She’s got plenty of time to keep proving she’s a good shot on the trail, if I decide she comes.”
The sultry way Kayne looked at her when he spoke those last two words sent fiery shivers sweeping through her. Instinctively she knew he didn’t mean if she was coming with them on the trail. He meant something sexual. Suddenly she felt as if she were sitting across from a sexual volcano ready to explode. Actually, three volcanoes. She knew she shouldn’t be saying these next words. Knew she should put down her own rules for them to follow. But her stupid mouth seemed to have taken on a will of its own.
“Name what you need from me on the trail, and it’s done.” She would do anything to get her hands on those gold bars.
“Not only do we get half the gold, we get you. All of you. Unconditionally. Whenever we want you. Just like we used to.”
Oh God. Instinctively she’d known Kayne would agree to the amount, and she also knew deep down inside of her that he would make the statement of her being their bed partner. Yep, she should have set some ground rules. But she didn’t want any. She wanted to experience what she’d felt during those teasing flashbacks. She wanted to plunge headfirst into that illusive, scorching pleasure. She wanted to remember everything.
“I’m assuming you’ll need a plug to prepare you,” Kayne guessed.
From the sides of her vision, she saw the other two men visibly lean forward in anticipation of her answer, and her tummy hollowed out with such an awesome feeling, she had to stop herself from gasping. My goodness, he was bold.
“I don’t have a plug,” she admitted. Sweet mercy! Was she crazy, agreeing to this?
She heard Maddox swear softly beside her. Could see the flash of Riley’s white teeth as he bit into his lower lip. He did that when he stifled his arousal. She blinked in stunned disbelief as she remembered that yes, Riley did nibble on his lower lip when trying to keep his arousal in check.
She’d just remembered something again. She should be ecstatic, but the heated way the three men were looking at her had her so frightened and aroused at the same time, that yes, she had to be crazy to be agreeing to this.
“I’ve still got plenty of brand-new plugs. All waiting for you, Eve. And tons of lube and condoms,” Kayne said. His voice sounded hoarse and very pleased that it would be so easy to get her back into his bed. Into their
