Ruled by her Daddies (Harem of Daddies)
Time to go hunting.

Vivi stood shivering in the safe room.
She couldn’t believe he’d done it. He’d locked her in here. Alone. What if something happened to him? What if Ben hurt him?
She took a deep breath. She was being foolish. This was Wolfe, for God’s sake. He was downright scary.
Especially when someone he loved was threatened.
He might never say the words, but she knew that he felt them. He loved her.
She should find a towel to dry herself off. Maybe a change of clothes. But she couldn’t seem to move.
Shock. She was in shock.
Damn it. How much more could her body take? How much more until she unraveled?
If she did, they’d put her back together. They’d hold her, they’d help her, they’d be there for her. The family she’d always craved but never had.
Her uncle killed her mom. And her dad had known. That asshole. She didn’t care if he was just a puppet to be used by her uncle. He’d known.
And he’d done nothing.
She really wanted one of the guys. And Piggles. She wanted Piggles too. Please, please let them all be all right.
A beeping noise had her jumping.
What was that?
The beeping sounded again. Oh God, what if someone was trying to break in? What had Wolfe said? Nobody knew where the room was except the three of them. But no one could get in unless she unlocked it. She breathed a bit easier as she reminded herself of that.
But how did she figure out who was on the other side? Was there a camera or something? Wolfe hadn’t had enough time to tell her. Panic swelled again. Why was it so hard to think?
She chewed her nail. What to do? The beeping continued. Forcing herself to move to the door, she touched the pad to the right, jumping back as an image appeared. She took in a shaky breath of relief as she saw Aleki and Caleb on the other side.
Aleki looked frantic. Caleb was frowning as he checked something on his phone. But they both appeared unharmed.
They’d come for her.
Shaking so hard that she messed it up the first time, she finally managed to input the code and the
door slid open. Her knees went weak with relief and she slumped to the ground.
“Jelly bean!” Caleb cried out as Aleki leaped forward to grab her.
Aleki lifted her into his arms. “Fuck, she’s wet. She’s freezing.”
Caleb placed his hand over her forehead, then took hold of her wrist, feeling her pulse. “Her heartbeat is racing. We need to get Obian over here. I’ll start the shower. She needs to get out of that wet dress and warm.”
“No, no, I don’t want any of that,” she told them. “Wolfe, I need Wolfe.”
Aleki and Caleb shared a look. “Where is Wolfe? Jelly bean, what happened to Hux? What’s going on?” Caleb asked as Aleki carried her to her bedroom then through into her bathroom. Caleb started the shower as Aleki sat on the closed toilet seat with her on his lap. He started to strip off her dress but she slapped his hands away.
“He’s gone chasing after my uncle.”
“Your uncle?” Aleki asked. “What? Why would your uncle be here?”
