Holly's Awakening Read Online Free PDF Page A

They were looking into potentially getting John full custody. If not,
then Steven was going for it. Out of the two of them Steven hadn’t gotten into
fights and didn’t have a bad reputation, whereas Kade did.
    John knew of some of their plans. Everything was
down to the lawyer. He’d also seen the sheriff, Matt Dawson, about keeping an
eye on Holly and the family.
    Matt had promised any more disturbance calls and he
was filing a report himself. There were always loopholes, and so many of them
had been overlooked when it came to the Walker family. He didn’t know how her
father and mother had gotten away with being this bad for so long. Kade had heard about it on the news but never imagined he’d
come face to face with it.
    The bruise on Holly’s face was a clear sign of that. Kade might spank a woman, but he only ever punished a
woman during play. He would never dream of hitting a woman for anything other
than pleasure. The thought alone made him sick to his stomach. There was no way
he was going to let any man lay a finger on his woman. Holly was his and
Steven’s woman, and he’d already put the warning out to the men on the ranch to
keep an eye on her.
    Creek Valley looked after its own. Her parents may
be part of the town, but they’d hurt their own kids and that wasn’t allowed.

    Holly waved at John and Eric as they drove off. John
refused to take her home, and Eric kept smirking at her. She couldn’t get the
image of the two men together out of her mind. Steven wrapped an arm around her
waist and pulled her back against him. Kade was
somewhere around. She hadn’t seen him since this afternoon.
    “What are you thinking?” Steven asked.
    “I’m scared about tonight.” She spoke the first
words that came to her mind.
    “Don’t be. Nothing is going to happen unless you
want it to.”
    She let out a sigh and rested against him. His
masculine scent surrounded her. He always smelt amazing.
    “Did you like what you saw this afternoon?” Steven
whispered the words against her ears.
    “Yes,” she said, sighing as she did.
    “Good. Kade and I are an
item, and it’s easier if you accept that.”
    “I don’t know what’s going on. Kade never spoke more than ten words to me before. What is happening?” she asked.
    “What should have happened from the very beginning,
Holly. Are you attracted to us?”
    His question made her groan. She didn’t want to
answer him. Why couldn’t he leave the questions out of it?
    “Answer me,” he said.
    “Yes, answer him, Holly,” Kade said, standing in front of her.
    She gasped. Holly hadn’t even seen him approach.
    “I wondered when you’d turn up,” Steven said.
    Kade didn’t wear a shirt, and his tanned flesh was on glorious display. She dropped
her gaze to look up and down his body. His thick rod was outlined through the
jeans. Her mouth watered remembering what she’d seen of him.
    “Yes, I’m attracted to you.” Her cheeks must be hot
to the touch. Both men were crowding her in ways she didn’t think possible.
There was a whole new pulse between her thighs that couldn’t be described as
anything other than the pleasure they were working up.
    “You’re so beautiful.” Steven pressed on her back,
moving her away from him.
    Kade pulled the band from her hair making her hair fall around her shoulders. No
protest left her lips. He took her sweater from her next until she stood in
front of him in a clinging shirt and jeans with her hair framing her face.
    His fingers sank into the length and fanned it out.
She’d never liked her hair as the colour always made her think of mousy brown
hair. Her father would laugh at her timid behaviour and call her “mouse” or
anything derogatory he could think of.
    “I think we should take this inside,” Steven said.
    Kade took
the lead, taking her hand and walking her through the office into the main house.
She’d never been to the main house before. Holly knew Steven liked to keep work
and living
