Knox grabbed my clothes and held them out to me. “You’re not ready to take on all of us and I don’t think all of us are ready for it, either.”

He was right. I didn’t think I was ready to have sex with all four of them at once. Maybe one day when we all were, we would, but not today. I still felt bad for leaving them wanting, though.

Keelan got up and kissed the top of my head. “If we didn’t want to watch, we could have left the room.”

“Are you sure you didn’t just stay because you knew I wanted you to?” I asked him.

“We absolutely stayed to play out that dirty fantasy of yours and we enjoyed every minute of it.” Keelan walked away. “Because I enjoyed it so much, I’m going to replay you coming in my head while I go take a shower,” he shot over his shoulder before going into the bathroom.

Colt snorted as he lay back and stretched. Knox shook his head at Keelan’s antics. Feeling more secure, I took my clothes from him and got dressed.

“We need to make a trip back to town. We’re running low on things,” Knox said at breakfast a few days later.

“I noticed that last night when I was cooking dinner,” I said as I set down my fork on my plate.

Knox was standing on the other side of the kitchen island. He had already finished eating and was now focused on finishing off his coffee. “I checked the road this morning. It’s clear of snow and it’s not icy.”

“It’s been warmer the past few days,” Creed said from where he sat next to me. “That’s probably why.”

Knox set down his coffee mug on the island. “It’s a lot colder today. Because we don’t know what the weather is going to be like over the next couple of days, we should probably go today.”

I nodded. We hadn’t been snowed in yet and we might not be. Or if we were, it might only be for a day. It was best to be prepared and it was good to stock up on things so we didn’t have to travel to town as much.

“Can we all go this time?” Colt asked.

I shook my head. “I’m sorry. One of you has to stay behind. Hot identical twins are too memorable.”

That made them smile. “It’s such a hardship being this gorgeous sometimes,” Creed said, making Colt snort.

Knox rolled his eyes.

“Cry about it when you stare at yourself in the mirror later, stud muffin,” Keelan said as he carried his empty plate to the sink.

“Jealous you weren’t the one Shi called hot today,” Creed baited him.

Keelan turned around and leaned against the sink with a superior expression.

Before he could say something smart, I said, “Keelan’s ego is big enough. Actually, all four of you know what you got going on and don’t need reminding.” When I was done speaking, I realized what I’d said may have come out a little harsher than I intended. “Sorry. That was rude, but true.”

Creed snorted. “That was a terrible apology.”

“Don’t mind her. She’s upset because she still hasn’t heard from Logan,” Knox said as he scooped up my plate and put it in the sink.

“I’m sure he’ll call soon, babe,” Colt said.

I didn’t believe him, but I forced myself to nod anyway.

Keelan and Colt came with me to town. It was an easier trip and a little less stressful than the last one. I wasn’t exhausted this time and I’d made a physical list of things we’d need to last us another couple of weeks. But the thought of being at the cabin another couple of weeks only added to the stress I was feeling about not hearing from Logan.

“Still thinking about Logan?” Keelan asked as the two of us loaded up my 4Runner with our purchases. Colt was currently in a cute coffee shop next door to the grocery store we’d just finished shopping in, getting us drinks.

“I can’t help but think about Desert Stone and your lives back in Arizona. What if we have to be here for a few more weeks? Or a month?”

“Please don’t stress about that, baby,” Keelan pleaded, looking directly at me. “We got everything taken care of back home. Katrina is taking care of Desert Stone and if we’re not back in a month, we left her everything Micah would need to keep things running at the gym and take care of our house.”

My shoulders sank a little. That did make me feel better.

Just as we finished loading everything, Colt exited the coffee shop with our drinks. Right away, I knew something wasn’t right. His expression was tight and he was walking fast. “Get in the car, babe,” he ordered. The sharpness and slight panic in his tone made me get in the car without question.
