Cooper took a foot in his hand, cradling it in his oare"

He started to rub, and Alea couldn’t stop the groan that caers found her scalp and started to rub "Go on and get so"

Her body relaxed, and Alea gave over to the heavenly content in the fact that she didn’t feel a bit of fear

Her last thought as she closed her eyes and drifted aas a sweet one She’d held the title of ‘princess’ for years, but this was the first tiht

Four days later, Alea watched Landon ereen bananas slung over his rippling shoulder and realized she was in lust

The guys kissed, cuddled, and touched her at every turn They ainst her lips Every night, they stroked her and curled protectively around her until she went to sleep It was like a fantasy

And they were slowly killing her Death by sexual frustration

She often awakened with one’s hand cradling a breast as he buried his face in her neck Another would have his hand cupping her ainst her backside But no one fondled her long enough to release the orgas inside her They’d primed her body repeatedly, and she felt ready to explode Just being near the at them--aroused her Yes, she’d made them promise to take it slow But "slow" had beco the way Lan’s body race, fros that had been chiseled by hard work and pure grit His hair was growing out already, though he took care of his beard every day during what she now called "Hot Guy Beach Bathing"

All three of the hands coasting all over those muscles with the soap they’d h ashes and collecting the lye, then ht They’d tossed in a collection of clean-scented herbs from the island, and it wasn’t bad In fact, the process had fascinated her, but not asthem shave themselves and shove each other around in the surf For some reason, men seemed to show their affection for each other with curses and punches

But they showed their affection for her with toe-curling kisses and slow strokes of their hands She was so ready to show them her affection in return

"Hey, darlin’," Lan said with a big grin as he entered camp "You won’t believe what I found"

Bananas, obviously Alea had no trouble believing he’d found those Lan had becoed to fashion a spear fro knife Besides yesterday’s wild pig, he brought ho was now roasting over the fire It was going to be a nice dinner She’d already gathered wild tubers to cook, too Food was not a probleh Or the frustrating lack of it

God, she wanted them

"Earth to Alea?" Lan shoved the bananas into the se shed Dane and Cooper had built

They were rapidly turning into the Swiss Family Robinson Dane, it turned out, had a true talent for tropical architecture He’d built a little shelter with a bahtly together, then secured to hold against the wind It was the rainy season in this part of the world, and Dane had known it He’d made certain she stayed safe and dry Now, he was busy building a smoker since a small population of wild boars inhabited the island and her er to put as many as possible in their bellies

"Sorry My ," she confessed "What did you find?"

He shook his head "Can’t tell you You just have to see it Co there"

She looked out at the beach where Dane was busy gathering rocks and shells for his SOS le contrail stream froht now being here with them was like the best vacation ever No outside pressures No worries No expectations They had plenty of food and water, a great shelter, and each other She was seriously beginning to question what oing Hang tight" Landon jogged out to Dane

He’d taken to just wearing his boxers and his sneakers It was too hot during the day to wearsuit or panties and a bra She wasn’t embarrassed any

Lan clapped Dane on the shoulder with a nod, then ran back up the beach He reached for her hand "He’s going to join us when he’s done Co our asses off It’s time to take an afternoon for sole, the sun disappearing under the heavy foliage Theand only yesterday had declared it safe enough for her to walk around Even so, she hadn’t been allowed to leave the beach alone Now, she turned her face up and was orgeous reen canopy She could hear le was alive Everything here seeht on the island, the sounds had been terribly familiar, and she’d drea and shaking, she’d been surrounded by her three er to soothe and reassure To protect And they had, every minute of every hour since

They’d put her at ease, and now she saw the jungle like a playground She was Eve with three glorious Ada to love this," Lan assured "I’ve spent a lot of tiotten to the center"

He’d also e so she couldThe island ht "Is the ocean close?"

Lan shook his head, a huge grin on his face "No It’s a lagoon Cooper says this whole island must be a volcano, so I assumed the pond we found would be heated by the lava underneath Except I can’t rema?" she supplied

His face fell a little "Yeah, that was it I’reat with infor hiet to spank you now"

"What?" He glowered at her His blue eyes had turned serious in a heartbeat

Just like her, gorgeous Lan had his own insecurities to work through In the last few days, she’d seen that they all had their own de that made it so much easier to relax and be herself around the yourself that you’re dumb"

He frowned at her "Lea, I’m pathetic if I can’t be honest with myself"
