Free My Chameleon Loves [Galactic Nuptials 2] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) by Missy Martine Page B

eyes and pulled away. I want both of you, too. But I’m just not ready. “That’s enough. Come back, Zin.”
    His body materialized immediately. He looked at her and then dropped his chin to his chest. “I didn’t mean to scare you, flower. I would never hurt you.”
    “I know, but it’s just too soon for me. I want you both, but we barely know each other. I need some time to work some things out in my own head.”
    Zin walked over and took her hand. “Maybe we can help you work out what’s bothering you. Maybe it’s time you told us what really happened on Earth.”
    Jeni frowned and tried to take a step back but Zin wouldn’t release her hand. “What do you mean?”
    “We know you didn’t steal money from that company, but we also know that you’re hiding something. Tell us what’s going on, and maybe we can help.”
    She lowered her eyes and licked her lips. “How do you know I didn’t steal the money?”
    “One of our abilities is to be able to sense people’s emotions, and understand their deepest feelings. It’s even stronger between an eldest male child and their Laan Asawa. I can feel your innocence, but at the same time I can feel you’re afraid of something. We want you to tell us what you’re afraid of.”
    Jeni sat back down and put her face in her hands. Maybe I should tell them about Linda. If I tell someone maybe this guilt I feel will go away. It would be such a relief to tell them everything. They’d protect me. I know they would. But will they still want me if they find out I really did take all that money? She took a deep breath. “Okay, I’ll tell you what I know.” For the next hour, Jeni sat cocooned in the warmth of her men on either side of her. She told them everything, everything except how to find the money.
    “So, that’s the story. I know they did something to her, but I couldn’t prove it. They’ve got cops in their back pockets, and I don’t know who I can or can’t trust. I have a sneaking suspicion Rich is not one of the good guys.”
    Zin pulled her close and rested his chin on her head. “Then let us help, flower. We have powerful connections in the State Department. We can ask them to look into it as a favor to us.”
    “The State Department would do you a favor?”
    Kernz ran his hand over her hair. “Of course, little love. How do you think we got them to let you come home with us?”
    Zin stood and pulled her to her feet. “Let’s get back to the house and we’ll get on the vid before the wormhole closes, if it hasn’t already. We’ll get in touch with a couple of people and see what they can find out.”
    Kernz shook his head. “It’s probably too late today. I think it’s been down over an hour now.”
    “Then we’ll have to get all the information written down and we can send a data burst along with our message in the morning when it opens back up.” He lifted Jeni’s chin. “What do you say we go back and do some brainstorming about what you know about your friend’s disappearance? The more we give them the better the chance they’ll come up with something.”
    “What about the picnic you packed?”
    Zin laughed. “You’re definitely obsessed with food. We’ll eat it on my desk. It’ll still be romantic, flower.”
    “I’ve been meaning to ask you something.”
    “What is it?”
    “Why do you call me ‘flower’?”
    Zin sighed, a tiny smile turning up his lips. “Your scent is what first told me you’re our mate. When I scented you in the courthouse, you reminded me of a flower that grows on Arridia. It’s called Rrhytia. They’re beautiful, flower, and they bloom all year long.”
    “Wait! You said you know me by scent. Does that mean you don’t have a choice? I mean, do you choose your mate because of some fluke of nature that she smells right?”
    Zin frowned. “No, of course not.”
    “Wait, Brother. Let me answer this.” Kernz walked over and took both Jeni’s hands in his. “You’re trying to say that we
