Chapter Four
R.D. took a calming breath and continued to clean their woman. It was obvious his father and Katherine didn’t know half about what their daughter had been doing. “So tell us about the nude beaches?” he asked, trying not to growl.
She sighed. “You’re really not going to stop until I tell you, are you?” Jasmine asked and he shook his head.
“We want to know all about you, Jasmine. You’re part of us now. We’re connected for life even if we haven’t performed the mating ritual yet, you carry our blood inside of you.”
Her body stiffened for a few minutes. “That is not a good topic right now. Fine, I’ll tell you, but only once.” She glanced back with her big brown eyes. “It’s all in the past and it will be kept there, understood?” Jasmine glanced at him, then at Logan.
Oh, their mate had Alpha in her that was for sure. She wasn’t as helpless as her mother described last week. “Fine, but that goes both ways, Princess.” He tugged on her hair. “You can’t get all jealous on us if we introduce you to our pack members.”
“Whatever. The first nude beach was my trip to France after graduating high school. Two of my best friends, Alex and Mary and I flew to Paris where, of course, we ditched the guards. Booked our stay at Cap d’Agde’s Naturist Quarter. My God, that place was beautiful while we were there. We would have stayed longer, but your father’s guards were getting close so we only got three days there, than we flew to Spain. Did you know they have some of the best beaches and my God, the men were well…?” She squirmed and her face turned pink. “Let’s just say if I had been a virgin, I sure would have lost it there.”
“What?” he and his brother said at the same time.
“Hey, don’t get all uppity with me.” She stiffened in his arms and tried to stand up, but he held onto her.
“I’m sorry Jasmine, but the thought of you with any other man; well it does not sit well with us. So you had a hot summer fling?” he snarled the last part, but encouraged her to go on.
“Yes, it lasted a little longer until your father and my mother showed up out of the blue and ruined our trip.” She shook her head.
“I’ve never seen Cole so angry as that afternoon they found us at our hotel swimming pool. We were lying in the sun just soaking up the rays, when he appeared. If looks could have killed, well, half of the staff and men around the pool would have been dead.”
Jasmine slowly smiled and he knew he wasn’t going to like hearing her next confession.
“I’m so glad I listened to my gut and told Cesar we were having a girl’s day. Your father didn’t find out about him, thank God. Anyway, the three of us went back two years later. Mom knew we were going overseas and I think she had an idea we were going back, but said nothing. However, your father was another story. Did you know he fired the guards watching us that year and hired new ones?” she glanced back at him and he grinned.
“I would have done the same. So I take it you lost the next set of guards?” he asked dreading the response.
“Nope,” she grinned peeking at him, than glancing at Logan who hadn’t said a word. “Boyfriend number one was one of my guards. We had the best time in Spain and France. Mary is still seeing Jasper.” She frowned and looked at him. “Is he a shifter too?”
“Jasper Long?” Logan growled and she glared at him.
“Don’t you even say a word to that man. He has been a godsend for Mary. He saved her life last year when some crazy nut was stalking her. I mean it, Logan, leave those two alone. Promise me.” she kept her gaze on Logan.
“I promise not to cause trouble for your friend, but Jasmine these men were there to protect you, not fuck you,” Logan snarled. “They should be accountable for their actions.”
She squirmed in his arms until he released her. He watched her scoot closer to Logan and poke his chest. “Listen here, bud. We were protected at all times, so what if we had fun too. Leave them alone.”
Logan grabbed onto her hand and kissed every finger, his eyes almost glowing. “As I said, I will leave your friend alone, but the other will account for what they did. Now, who were you with?”
“Ha, you think I’ll tell you now? Don’t think so.” She tried to yank her hand away from Logan, but he held on smiling.
“Oh, you’ll tell us, Princess,” R.D. purred running his hands up her back and around to the front so he could cup her breasts in his hands. “But if it helps, we promise not to hurt the man, right Logan.” His gaze met his brothers.
“I don’t like it, but fine, we won’t hurt him. However, I will have serious issues with him doing any other guarding.” Logan stated, twining his fingers with hers.
For what seemed like an eternity both of them waited to see what she would do. Sure they could go into her mind and find out who it was, but if they were going to build some trust they needed her to open up to them.
“Don’t break my trust on this,” Jasmine relaxed against his chest. “They didn’t make the first moves. Matter of fact they wouldn’t step foot on the nude beaches this time. We just started talking, Mary, Alex, Jasper, Daman, and Granger.” She smiled, proud of herself.
“Who were you with, Jasmine?” Logan growled and she laughed.
“I can’t believe you
