The President and the Starlet: A Forbidden Romance Read online

  “So what’d we miss since you got home?” Will asks, wolfing down another egg sandwich. Man, that guy puts down like a bear, inhaling calories.

  “Well,” I say casually. “There’s someone next door.”

  The twins barely hear, busy stuffing their faces. Finally, one looks up, disinterested.

  “What, that little girl? What was her name? She was twelve the last time we saw her.” Tim glances at his phone, already starting to text.

  Just then, the curvy Macy Jones wanders out her back door, brown curls bouncing. Holy shit, she’s got an apron on, and it shouldn’t make her look sexy, but it does. The cloth’s cinched tight, highlighting her tiny waist, before skimming over thick thighs to graze her knees. Fuck, did Jessica Rabbit look so good in an apron?

  And my brothers’ eyes about pop out of their heads. Will lets out a low whistle.

  “Hot fucking damn,” Tim says.

  “Yup,” I say as we all watch her fuss with the lawn chairs for a moment.

  “Curves for days,” Will says.

  “No shit,” I repeat. “And she’s coming this way.”

  “Quick, put the newspaper over your boner,” Will grinds out.

  “You put the newspaper over your boner,” Tim answers, jabbing him with his elbow. “I’ll be putting mine to use.”

  As Macy knocks on the back door, we all scramble to our feet, desperate to be the one she sees first. I open the door as we line up. Macy’s eyes go wide when she sees us.

  “Oh, um,” she stammers, her cheeks turning pink as she blushes. “I thought there was only, um, one of you? I mean, I only saw one of you yesterday at the party?”

  We all laugh. Will holds out his hand and Macy shakes it, the blush spreading to her chest. I have to bite my tongue to keep from groaning like a teenager.

  “I’m Will,” my brother says. He jerks a thumb back at his twin. “This is my twin brother, Tim.”

  “And I’m Matt,” I say. “We met last night.”

  She nods, eyes as big as saucers in her beautiful face.

  “There are four more of us coming,” Tim tosses off. “You know there’s seven total.”

  Macy keeps nodding, clutching a little notebook to her chest so that her beautiful breasts squeeze up and out. Shit, does she even know that’s happening? Is she aware how the valley between those tits beckon, how much I want to lick right there and then fuck my dick between them?

  “So what’s up?” I ask, eyeing that juicy form, not even bothering to hide my interest. “What’s going on?”

  “I, um,” she says again, biting one of her lips. “I’m thinking about writing a cookbook.”

  “Matt here is a writer,” Will says, pushing me forward a step.

  She gives me a shy smile and looks at the ground. “Well, I don’t need help writing, exactly. Because actually I’m a cook. I thought maybe, since there’s so many of you, you might be good taste-testers? I wouldn’t want you to be stuffed too full,” she says quickly. “Taste testing can get really overwhelming sometimes, there’s so much food.”

  My brothers and I all share a glance.

  “I think we could help out,” comes my low growl.

  Are you kidding? We eat like rhinos on a rampage, entire birthday cakes at once.

  But Macy has no idea. She relaxes her shoulders and lets out a breath.

  “Oh, that would be so great, thank you,” she says gratefully. “I’ve got a ton of dishes to try out and as much as I love to eat, it might all go to waste if it’s just me. Plus, I need objective opinions. Maybe I might like something but everyone else thinks it’s crap, but is too nice to tell me.”

  Holy shit, is this true? Free food, probably real good food too, and a sense of humor? This girl is everything we want and more.

  Evidently my brothers feel the same way.

  “Naw, no worries honey,” drawls Tim. “Happy to help.”

  “Food is our business,” growls Will. “We can eat it all.”

  She blushes, giggling a little, her cheeks again turning that magical shade of pinky-peach that makes me think of sherbet. Which, of course, makes me all the more eager to lick her in places I doubt she’s ever been licked.

  But the twins are on it.

  “When do we start?” grunts Tim.

  She purses her lips for a moment, thinking.

  “Well, would now work?” she asks, eyes hopeful. “I have some stuff on the stove right now, so if you’re free, maybe we could do a sample. And I’d like to pay you for your time,” she adds in a rush. “I don’t expect you to work for free, your time is important.”

  Holy shit, really? This girl has no idea what she’s getting into.

  “We don’t need your money,” I growl.

  The twins grunt in assent.

  But Macy shakes her head stubbornly.

  “Well, I’d like to do something to thank you,” she says, chin firm. “You’re professionals, and professionals get paid.”

  Out of the frying pan and into the fire. Shit, this girl is asking for it. Because sure, there’s a way that she can pay us. There’s a real good way, one that’ll make us all grunt with pleasure. Because Macy is curvy and innocent … and we’re gonna show her exactly what to do.

  CHAPTER THREE

  Trent

  I let myself into the house. My mom said she was off to her tennis lessons at the country club and that a temporary nurse would be at the house when I arrived. That’s good. Someone to hold down the fort, medically speaking.

  Because as a doctor, I’ll be overseeing my dad’s recovery process. Strokes aren’t my specialty, I practice internal medicine. But it’s fine. I know enough, and besides, Dad needs help, so here I am.

  Lugging my suitcase upstairs, I toss it into my room before checking in with the day nurse. She’s somewhat cute, but way too skinny. I’m not one for the thin chicks, and this girl’s gotta put on at least fifty pounds before reaching my ideal weight. But there’s no harm in flirting right? Especially if she treats my dad better. So I rattle off a compliment or two, leaving the nurse swooning and mooning, dreaming about Prince Charmings and happily ever afters. See? Easy as fuck-all.

  Famished, I hustle downstairs. The kitchen windows are open, and a nice breeze blows through, bringing with it the most delicious smell. Holy shit! What’s going on? This is literally the best thing I’ve smelled in ages. It’s savory and tangy and like a sniffing dog, I follow my nose.

  Stomach growling loudly, my feet take me out the back door, moving as if in a trance. Pretty soon, I’m at the Jones’s gate, walking like a zombie towards the back.

  Of course, my rational side reminds me that it’s super weird to just show up at someone’s house and ask to eat whatever they’re cooking. But fuck, it smells really good and I’m goddamn hungry. Never come between a man and his stomach.

  Looking inside, this is definitely the right place. Because not only does that food smell amazing, but there’s a young woman at the stove cooking. Who is that? My mind runs furiously. She’s curvy and dark-haired, and three of my brothers are practically salivating in their seats at the kitchen table, their boners about to bust through their shorts. Seriously, who is this chick? A body like a babe, wielding a spatula like a pro? Wet dreams do come true.

  Quietly pushing the door open, I let myself in. And suddenly lightning strikes my brain. Holy shit, it’s little Macy Jones. Squinting, I look at the female again. Yep, it’s gotta be. Back then, she was scrawny like a twig, more like a boy than a girl.

  But damn, have things changed. Because she’s got an ass that’s definitely not boy-like, with a rack that could make grown men weep. In fact, my dick’s practically dripping now, taking in the delectable sight.

  And my brothers are on the same wavelength. As I step into the kitchen, their heads barely turn, eyes glued to the girl.

  “Yo,” says one of them. The other two don’t even bother to speak, staring at our beautiful kitchen goddess.

  “Yo,” I grunt in return.

>   The three look lot alike, same as when they were younger. Hell, we all look alike, with the same dark hair, blue eyes, and massive builds. It’s the black Irish blood.

  But that doesn’t interest me right now. What interests me is the girl at the stove.

  “Hey, I’m Trent,” I say. “You must be Macy.”

  She turns, startled.

  “Oh I didn’t even see you,” she murmurs. “Did you knock?”

  I growl.

  “No.”

  She blushes.

  “Well, we’re all neighbors here,” she says quickly. “And you have to be one of the Morgans.”

  I nod. Like I said, our family resemblance is astonishing.

  “Yeah, I’m related to these fuckers. Their big brother. Trent.”

  She looks at me and blushes again.

  “The doctor?”

  “Yep, that’s right,” I drawl. “Here to take care of Daddy-O, he’s sick,” I say, brows lowering. But this isn’t the time or place to get into a long, drawn-out conversation about the specialized care my dad needs. So I change the subject.

  “And what are you up to Macy? What’s goin’ on, hanging with these losers?” I nod at my brothers. “Last I remember, you were a pigtailed, soccer-playing tomboy.”

  One of my bros busts in then.

  “Macy here’s a cook,” drawls Tim. “And we’re her taste-testers.”

  I guffaw. Seriously? These guys would eat anything, they don’t qualify as taste-testers. Literally, you could feed them slop and they’d gobble it up like pigs.

  But clearly, an opportunity’s at hand, and I don’t want to fuck it up.

  “It’s all good,” I drawl casually, sliding into a seat at the counter. “So what’s this taste-testing about?”

  The brunette blushes again before looking up.

  “Well, I just finished my freshman year at State,” she says. “I don’t have a major or anything, I’m still undecided. But I wanted to write a cookbook in the meantime, just self-published,” she says quickly. “Any real publisher wouldn’t be interested, not at first.”

  I shoot her a glance.

  “Have you talked to Matt?” I ask, nodding at my bro. “Mofo here has the writing itch too. He’s writing a book too.”

  She turns to look at my brother.

  “Oh really? What about?”

  Matt, to his credit, looks embarrassed.

  “A bunch of stuff,” he grunts. “I haven’t had a ton of time to work on it lately, these fools have been taking up a shitload of my energy.”

  The twins don’t look guilty at all.

  “Yeah, but you get a salary,” Tim retorts. “A real nice one I might add.”

  This is where I butt in. Because actually, our family’s loaded. The company that the twins started has taken off like a fucking rocket, and the cash comes in waves now. In fact, they’re even trying to recruit me to be the company doctor. But I make a shit ton of money at my practice, so it’s gonna take at least double that to make me switch.

  But we live a normal life despite being rich as Midas, and there’s no sense in giving it away. People would be envious, wanting what we have when they can’t get it.

  So instead, I change the subject.

  “Tell me more about the cookbook,” I say smoothly, shooting a warning glance at my brothers.

  Macy colors happily, although she looks at Matt with empathy.

  “It’s nothing big,” she says shyly. “I’ve always loved to prepare food, and it’s something that I want to do more of. Thus, the taste-testing,” she adds simply.

  I drawl again.

  “Honey, I’m sure it’s gonna be amazing. And we’re more than happy to be your guinea pigs. But do your parents know about this cookbook thing?”

  She colors.

  “They know, Jim and Marsha absolutely know,” she says slowly, puttering away at a simmering stew. “They don’t want me to do it, they want me to be an accountant or something,” she says, nose scrunching. “But I can’t see it. Me and numbers? It’s like saying it’s going to rain in the Sahara,” she says with a deprecating smile.

  I nod in appreciation. Hey, understanding your weaknesses is just as important as understanding your strengths. My respect for her grows because at eighteen, she’s already light years ahead. When I was that age, all I thought about was girls, boobs, and butts, in that order.

  But clearly, Macy doesn’t want to talk about it because she turns away abruptly, pulling plates out of the cabinets and cutlery from the drawers, handing the whole stack to me before smiling sunnily, the clouds in her eyes gone.

  “Dinner’s ready. Join us, Trent?”

  I don’t have to be told twice. All four of us males sit down, stomachs rumbling, dicks throbbing for this girl. But there’s no sense in scaring her, so we feed our guts first, diving into the savory stew.

  “Holy shit,” grunts Tim. “This is fantastic.”

  “Yeah,” Will burps happily. “Yeah. Fuck yeah.”

  Not exactly helpful comments, so Matt busts in with something literary.

  “It’s savory and sweet, but there’s heat that gets left at the back of your throat,” he says, gulping in huge swallows.

  And I’ve gotta uphold our honor too, so I try to say something complimentary.

  “The smell actually drove me crazy all the way from next door,” I growl. “That’s why I showed up like a stray dog outside your gate.”

  Macy smiles and I feel it in my toes. And other places, too. Let’s be honest.

  “Mouthwatering,” I add again, my eyes lingering on her lips.

  Macy takes notes as we enjoy her food, scribbling in her notebook when our comments are helpful, blushing and pushing her hair behind her ears each time our comments are ridiculous.

  About halfway through the meal, she loosens up a little, giggling at our constant innuendo, sometimes almost dishing it back. Shit, she’s sassy and sweet, yet innocent all at once. I watch hungrily, devouring every move, every luscious curve.

  And too soon, the meal’s over. The brunette shuts her notebook, sighing happily.

  “This was really helpful,” she murmurs, making eye contact with all four of us. “Thank you so much.”

  I grin.

  “No worries, little girl. No worries at all.”

  But Macy’s been taught her manners because she looks at us earnestly then.

  “Is there some way I can repay you? Like I said, taste-testing is real work, and I’d like to do something for you as well. Your input has been invaluable,” she adds.

  The air goes still, possibilities hovering in the atmosphere.

  Because really?

  Really really?

  And shit, it’s time to strike. My brothers and I exchange looks, the air in the kitchen crackling with energy.

  Oh yeah, we want.

  And we’re gonna take.

  But it’s important to go in slow, to ease into things without startling the sweet filly.

  “It’s nice of you to offer, baby girl,” comes my drawl. “Because we’re ready for some dessert.”

  Macy blushes and jumps up.

  “Oh I’m so sorry,” she breathes. “I forgot about dessert,” she says, hands flying to her cheeks. “I didn’t make any, maybe my parents have some ice cream in the freezer,” she rushes, running over to peer into the fridge.

  But it’s not that kind of dessert we want. So I get up and lead the brunette gently back to the table, making sure she’s sitting down.

  “Naw, not that kind of dessert honey. A different kind.”

  The female’s confused.

  “I can find something else,” she says quickly. “Did you mean non-American? Like a Mexican flan? Or a Swedish caramel? Chocolate from Denmark is also really good, I hear.”

  Macy’s so innocent, it’s cute.

  But we’re not after anything Mexican, Swedish or Danish.

  No, we’re looking for American. A hundred percent American, Grade A quality.

  “Naw
honey,” I drawl. “We want you.”

  The words hang in the air before us, quivering almost. Aw fuck. Is Macy gonna run screaming? Did we go too fast, too soon?

  She stares for a moment before taking a big breath and then exhaling in a rush.

  “I’m sorry,” her murmur comes. “You want me? I don’t understand.”

  Another pregnant pause.

  “Yeah,” Tim says silkily. “We want you. At least an appetizer, baby girl. Just a small taste.”

  The female’s big brown eyes swing between the four of us, but there’s no denying the hunger, the obvious insinuation. Because we’re four ravenous males, and there’s only one thing for her to do. Submit.

  And she understands.

  Because with a slow nod, the female agrees.

  “Yes,” comes her breathy murmur. “Yes, I want it.”

  And slowly, her hands move. As if in a trance, they untie her frilly apron, letting it drop to the ground. Fuck, she’s gorgeous. The girl’s got a white dress on underneath, and slowly, she slips a hand under one strap and lets it fall off her shoulder.

  “Like this?” she whispers, quivering a bit, hunger in those caramel eyes.

  We nod, eyes all over her luscious bod. Oh shit, the show’s starting and my dick’s already beginning to perk. Fuck me.

  She pushes the dress down further, freeing one heavy, creamy breast, running her index finger over the stiff, pink rosebud of a nipple.

  “Like this?” she whispers again. “Like this, boys?”

  My mouth grows dry. Damn, is Macy really doing this? Is the female teasing us, or does she have no idea? My dick jerks, spurting heavily in my jeans, and I can tell my bros are suffering the same. Fuck, Matt’s actually got his zip down, one hand in as he strokes. What a dirty mofo. Fuck him.

  But this is the Macy show, and we don’t want to scare her the first time. So we go slow.

  “More,” I breathe on a harsh rasp.

  “The other one, too,” Will rumbles, leaning forward, blue eyes intense.

  Macy takes a deep breath, and then pushes the other strap down, her shoulders now bare. Her left breast bounces out, full and creamy, and it’s all I can do to not groan aloud. Holy shit, that rack! Her tits are two perfect sacks of cream, and she touches them then, stroking gently down the sides, rubbing gently.
