and he drifted back to sleep that Kenzie realized they hadn’t used a
condom.  Fighting down the panic, she gave herself a mental shake and thought,
“God certainly has an unusual sense of humor where I’m concerned.” 
    When she was certain he was
deeply asleep, she slipped from the bed and got dressed.  Allowing herself one
last look at his dark good looks against the white sheets, she smiled sadly.
    Then she let herself out. 

Chapter Four
     
    Walking the mile back to her
truck, she called her brother.  Groggy at pre-dawn, she let him wake up a
moment. 
    “Kenzie?  Where are you?”
    “Hey there, Thad.  Can you bring
the dually and a tow chain?  I’m stuck on the main road.  I’m sorry to have to wake
you.”
    Thad showed up fifteen minutes later
wearing sweats and sneakers.  She kissed his cheek then burst into tears.  He
hugged her tight. 
    “What is it, Kenzie?  You never
cry…tell me what’s wrong.” 
    She shook her head and wiped her
face.  Giving him a smile and a shoulder shrug, she hooked up the truck and
towed it back to her place.
    Back to her real life.
     
    When Diesel woke hours later,
sunlight was on the bed…Kenzie wasn’t.  He knew she’d left because she didn’t
want there to be awkwardness between them.  He probably knew more about her
than most people; he doubted she’d like that vulnerability. 
    He reached out to touch the place
where her head had been, stroking the indentation. 
    As he pulled back the blanket to
get up, he knew something wasn’t right.  He’d obviously had sex with Kenzie
again during the night but there was no condom to be found.  Surely, he
hadn’t…he never did that. 
    You fucked up real big, Diesel. 
Go fix it. 
    He showered and changed, snatched
his keys off the table.  It was then he realized Kenzie had walked back
to her truck.  Most likely before the sun came up.
    You suck on so many different
levels right now.
    Diesel drove over to her house
and one of the hands said she’d gone skating.  The pond was a good fifteen
minute drive and he used the time to think about the night before. 
    He’d taken her virginity.  That
was no small thing. 
    He called his older brother
Douglas and started the conversation with, “Which Rhodes girl tried to get you
to take her virginity?”
    “Dude, not cool.  Where the hell did you hear about that?”
    “Digger, it doesn’t matter.  I…I slept
with MacKenzie Rhodes last night.  It surprised the fuck out of me when she
turned out to be a virgin.  She didn’t give me a word of warning.”
    Digger sighed heavily.  “You what ? 
Oh, hell.  Kat…Katya.  My god that was the most difficult decision of my life. 
I don’t think anyone could possibly understand the temptation involved.  She
was, is , so gorgeous.  They grow women real pretty in that family.”
    “I know they do.  Cristiana made
the attempt with Damien, I’m assuming?” Diesel asked bluntly.
    “Oh, fuck me , did
MacKenzie tell you that?  What did she say ?  What did you say?” 
His brother groaned.
    Diesel laughed.  “I had no idea
how to respond to much of anything she told me last night.  She said she didn’t
tell me because LeBlanc men don’t deflower virgins.  She said two of her
sisters could attest.  Since Kat and Cristi are twins, makes sense they’d try
to tag team the two of you.” 
    Douglas and Damien were twins,
the oldest LeBlanc siblings at twenty-seven.  They lived in Green Bay and ran an
auction house. 
    “Jesus…man, it was a bad scene. 
We did assume they were experienced, though I’m not proud of it.  We
took them up to the cabin.  Kat was more responsive than any other woman I’ve
been with.  I still remember how good she smelled.  When we found out,
everything came to a grinding halt, and they were humiliated.  We handled it
all wrong.”
    “Sounds like it.”
    “We drove them home.  No one said
a word but Damien and I knew we’d hurt them.  When they got out of
