Autumn

I step around Benedict and move to the cabinet, trying to see if I have anything other than cereal to give them.

Luckily, there’s always a baked good or five in this house, and there’s a box of pastries that I brought home from the bakery.

“It’s not much,” I say, pulling the box down. “But I wasn’t prepared for house guests, so I hope this works for breakfast.”

“Food is food,” Luke says, flipping open the lid of the box. “Oh, damn. These look gourmet.”

“Not that gourmet.” I blush a litt

  • A Naughty Christmas Affair: Fake Dating My Ex Brothers    Chapter 44

    AutumnThe days pass quickly with the three Montgomery brothers living in my house, and the house feels like it’s getting smaller and smaller every day.Between memories of that night with Elijah, my encounter with Benedict at the bakery, and the way Luke looks at me, I feel like I’m going out of my mind.They’re all so attractive, and so fucking present that’s it’s impossible to get away from it. I keep getting these little tastes of them when they touch me or kiss me in public, but it’s never enough to quench the desire burning inside me.I come home and they’re there, draped over the couch or in the kitchen. Luke builds fires and chops more wood, and I have to turn away from the window when he strips his shirt off one afternoon when the weather turns unseasonably warm.I have a dream about Benedict one night, about what might have happened if he hadn’t left the bakery that day, and I wake up and have to touch myself, burying my fingers deep inside me, wishing it was something else

    Autumn All three of them have this look in their eyes that makes my heart race. They come forward, stepping into the fitting room as a unit.“Damn,” Benedict says, his eyes traveling up and down the dress—and my body. “You look amazing.”Elijah nods. “That is a beautiful color on you.”Luke doesn’t say anything, but he keeps looking at me, and I notice it when he wrenches his eyes away from my cleavage.My cheeks flush at their praise, and I shyly tuck hair behind my ear. “Thanks,” I reply. “Rhiannon picked out the dress.”I glance at her and notice she has a sour look on her face, but I just ignore it for now, turning back to my “boyfriends.”“What are you doing here?”“We came to take you out to dinner after your fitting,” Luke answers.I smile at him, at all of them. “That’s nice of you. And I’m starving. I haven’t eaten since lunch.”“And let me guess,” Elijah says. “Lunch was a pastry?”“A pastry and some fruit, thank you very much,” I shoot back with a grin.He shakes his head.

  • A Naughty Christmas Affair: Fake Dating My Ex Brothers    Chapter 42

    Autumn Rhiannon is already at the little boutique she chose to get our dresses from. She has a fitting today too, for her wedding dress, and that doesn’t make me feel any better about what I’m about to do.Trying on clothes in front of someone as thin and pretty as my twin sister has never been fun, and this isn’t going to be an exception to that rule. At least Rhiannon is more likely to be focused on herself than me, so I won’t have to deal with her making any comments.A woman with bright blonde hair and an even brighter grin shows us to the fitting area where our dresses are hanging up waiting for us.“I’ll give you a few minutes to get changed and then be right in to make adjustments,” she says, flitting out and closing the door behind her.Rhiannon starts undressing right in the middle of the room, and I hurry to one of the little changing stalls, glad for the privacy. It must be nice to just feel confident enough to be in your underwear anywhere you want.“Are you okay?” she as

    Benedict “You… you wanted to do that?” Autumn murmurs. Her cheeks flood with color and she looks even more edible in that moment. “Even though there was no one here to pretend for?”I swallow, licking my lips. “Yeah. I did.” My hands tingle, itching to touch her.To pull her close and do everything I just told her I wanted to do. To prove to her everything I said is true. But I take a breath and wrestle myself back under control.We can’t do this here, for one thing. Not right now. And just because I want to taste her, doesn’t mean she wants me to. I’ve already kissed her without her permission once, and it would be rude to do that again.Not to mention, this whole situation is messy enough as it is. My brothers and I can barely be in the same room together without going for each other’s throats, and we’re all pretending to date Autumn, which makes it even harder. On top of all that, there’s the fact that she’s not the kind of woman you kiss and then just walk away from.And I know I

    Benedict It’s like flicking off a light switch, the way something changes in Autumn’s demeanor so suddenly. All the brightness that was there before drains out, leaving her almost blank and definitely more reserved. She disappears into the kitchen like she’s trying to escape from me, and I frown after her, not sure what just happened.When I follow her into the kitchen a moment later, she’s loading more dough onto a tray to slide into the oven.“Oh,” she says, not even glancing up at me when I walk in. “Are you heading out?”“No? I came looking for you.”“I need to do another tray of these cookies,” she says. “I’m almost out up front, and they’re a popular seller.”“Cookies,” I say, pinning her with a look.“Cookies,” she replies. “Cranberry macadamia nut with white chocolate. You can try one when they come out of the oven if you want.”Autumn makes a show of evenly spacing each scoop of cookie dough, giving it all her focus like it’s the most important thing she’s ever done. She’s o

    Autumn He asks me a question about the name of the bakery, and I tell him about how my grandmother used to hum the song Blackbird all the time when she baked, and how that’s always stuck with me.“When I was looking for a name for this place, it just seemed to fit.”There’s a smile on his face, a little wistful around the edges, and I wonder if he’s thinking about his own family. It’s on the tip of my tongue to ask, but I chicken out, going to a safer question.“What made you want to start traveling?”“I get itchy feet,” he says easily. “You know what I mean? Like if I stay in one place for too long, I get restless and just need to go somewhere.”“I remember you were like that when we were younger,” I tell him. “You were always running around doing something. Being reckless. Like that time when you climbed the water tower in the dark.”He smiles nostalgically. “I made it to the top too.”“And broke your ankle on the way down.”Benedict flaps a hand, unconcerned. “It was worth it for

    Autumn SIX YEARS AGOI’m so relieved when the exit for Sweetwater Lake pops up on the horizon. My butt is sore from sitting for so long, and I desperately need to stretch my legs. I debated pulling over like fifty miles ago, but the need to be home won out, making me push myself to keep going.The

    ElijahI get Autumn to the car, trying to focus. But it’s easier said than done when I can feel the softness of her body against mine and her scent is flooding my nose. Even in pain she’s beautiful, and my senses are attuned to her.She’s biting her lip hard enough that I worry she’s going to make

    Autumn “Are you finished? Can we get back to what we came here to do?” he asks. “Some of us are on a deadline for our wedding.”Benedict acts completely nonchalant as he takes my hand and leads me back over to the others, as if he didn’t almost make me come by feeding me a damned cupcake.“Sorry,

    Autumn “What are you doing here?” I ask as they come over.“You’ve been gone all day at your bakery, and now you’re here at another one,” Benedict says with a grin. “We missed you, so we wanted to see you.”“You don’t mind if we join the tasting do you?”Luke adds. He folds his arms, looking polit
