Satisfied 2X

She beamed as the cameras flashed rapidly.

She didn’t have to see them to know they were proud of her. For the first time in her life Alison knew what it meant to have a real family. To be able to trust and love with abandon. To let herself fall like no one was watching. To let her heart get swept in the magic of their touches. The heat of their sheets. The strength in their powerful bodies.

Her life would never be the same and she didn’t want it to be. She couldn’t picture a life without Drew and Hunter.

The screen flashed behind her and she launched into her presentation about the newest component of the foundation. The words flowed easily. Her voice grew louder. The confidence emanated from her as the presentation went on.

After the Q&A with the reporters the lights dimmed and Alison walked off the stage.

“Brilliant.” Colt smiled. He kissed her on the cheek.

“You were a tiger out there.” Hunter snaked a hand around her waist. “You killed it.”

“You think so?” She searched their eyes for confirmation she had done exactly what she set out to do—represent Soar like the pillar it deserved.

“I know so.” Colt winked. “I think this calls for a celebration.”

“My office. Five minutes,” Hunter grinned.

“Five minutes?” Alison pouted.

“I promise it will be worth the wait.” He winked, turning away from her. He left a faint wake of cologne.

She watched them walk out of view and felt the familiar tingle in her core. It didn’t make much to make her feel tipsy around them. They were all masculinity and protectiveness.

Alison decided to stop by her office on her way to Hunter’s corporate suite. Maureen was bustling around with flowers.

“Where did those come from?” Alison pointed to the arrangement.

“You do have your share of admirers around here.”

Alison still didn’t know how they were going to handle the public portion of their relationship. At home it was one thing. The staff at the manor knew they shared a bedroom. There was one giant king-sized bed and it was rare that the three of them didn’t sleep in it together. Everyone had his or her own room, but it didn’t seem to make sense to sleep alone when there was so much to share together.

But here at the office, the unconventional nature of their relationship would hurt their brand. And she knew it would hurt Soar’s reputation. It was the one thing that hurt her heart the most. She couldn’t live publicly with the two men she loved the most.

Alison wondered if Maureen’s comment implied she knew something about her relationship with the CEOs.

“They’re beautiful.” She inhaled the red and white roses, knowing exactly who had sent them. “Any messages?” she asked.

“I’ve sent everything to your

inbox,” Maureen reported.

“Thank you.” She closed her laptop.

“Are you leaving already?”

“I have a meeting with Hunt—I mean with Mr. Rockford in his office.”

Maureen blushed. “You don’t have to hide it from me, Alison. I think I know what’s going on.”

Alison froze. Her stomach did a somersault. “You do?” This could be terrible. She stared in horror.

“I’ve worked here long enough to know those bachelors.” She paused. “And I’ve never seen Hunter Rockford look at a woman the way he looks at you. He’s in love with you.”

Alison gasped. “Maureen!”

“It’s true. And the roses have to be from him.”
