For a whole ten seconds nothing happened so I shrugged and said, "Looks like no one is home. Oh well, I tried. Let's go."

Aideen grabbed my arm as I tried to turn away from the door. "Oh, no you don't! Have patience and wait!"

I grunted and folded my arms across my chest while Aideen rang the bell again.

"Coming!" a male voice from inside the house hollered a few seconds later.

"Fuck!" I whispered making Aideen snicker.

A few seconds after I spoke the hall door to the Slater residence opened. I had already seen what Alec and Kane looked like and this man was neither of them.

Nope, I was gazing upon another God.

A God who had on shorts that fell to his knees and a vest top that was stretched over his torso. Tattoo's where inked on his body, lots of tattoos. He was nothing short of a masterpiece. Easily over six feet tall with short dark brown hair, bright grey eyes and plump lips.

"Aideen," the man smiled revealing straight white teeth.

This really wasn't fair.

He was simply beautiful.

"Hey Ryder," Aideen chirped then glanced to me and whispered, "He is the eldest."

Ryder heard Aideen and smiled at us. I mentally, and probably audibly, sighed because he was so fucking good looking that it almost hurt to look at him and this was Alec's eldest brother?

These lads will only get better with age, let me tell you!

"Branna isn't here right now and-"

"Oh, we aren't here to see Branna. We're here to see Alec. Well, me friend is here to see Alec."

Ryder's eyes fell on me, he glanced to my stomach then to my face. "You're not pregnant, are you?"

I flushed every shade of red imaginable.

I looked fucking pregnant?

"No!" I stated, appalled that he even asked that question.

Ryder quickly cleared his throat. "You don't look pregnant, that came out wrong. Having a girl show up here looking for Alec is extremely rare so I'm a bit worried. He never tells his lays' where he lives."

His lay?

I felt my eyes practically fall from my head. "I did not have sex with your brother!"

Ryder bit down on his bottom lip and ran his hands through his trimmed hair. "I'm so sorry, this is coming out all wrong. You don't look like Alec's usual lay, I mean, you're gorgeous but his girls' are usually blonde and-"

"Jesus Christ, Ryder, just stop talkin'! You're diggin' yourself into a never endin' pit here," Aideen angrily snapped.

Ryder jumped a little at the volume of Aideen's shout, but nodded his head and focused on me. "I'm so sorry."

I just nodded my head to him not knowing what to say so I stayed silent. He blew out a long breath before he turned around and shouted, "Alec, a woman is here to see you!"

A few moments passed by until I heard a door open, a few light footsteps then a whisper, "If she has blonde hair, a mole on her left cheek, and huge tits, close the door right fucking now."

I felt my face twist in disgust as I shook my head, he was such a fucking dick.

"I don't have blonde hair, a mole on me cheek or big tits, it's safe to come out!" I shouted.

Ryder grinned at me, but tried to hide it by rubbing his hand over his mouth. He then stepped to the right and allowed Alec to fill the doorway. I was embarrassed and mad over what Ryder said to me, but I forgot about that when my eyes landed on Alec.

Shirtless Alec.

Shirtless Alec who whas a large dragon tattoo that covered his right arm and part of his chest and possessed six pack abs and the ultimate V line.

Did all of these brothers have bodies and tattoos like this?

"Keela?" Alec said, clearly surprised that I was on his doorstep.

"The Keela that put you on your ass last night? That Keela?" Ryder murmured to Alec.

"Yeah, that Keela. Don't worry, she is calm and won't hurt Alec again, promise," Aideen chirped making both of the brothers chuckle and me bristle. I glared at her, but the bitch paid me no attention.

I cast my head down and cleared my suddenly dry throat.

"Can I speak to you?" I asked when I looked back up at Alec.

I narrowed my eyes when I found his eyes on my legs instead of on my face. "Eyes on me face buddy, me face."

Alec lifted his head and flicked his eyes across my face. "And what a pretty face it is."

Really?

I groaned out loud. "Did you really just say that? That was beyond pathetic."

Alec grinned while Ryder snorted and murmured, "Kane was right, she isn't affected by you."

"All in good time bro," Alec muttered back.

Seriously?

I could hear them talking.

"Are you goin' to leave two lovely ladies stood outside on your porch or are you goin' to invite us in?" Aideen asked with a beaming smile.

Ryder quickly nodded his head. "Right, sorry, come on in. Branna shouldn't be too long so you can hang with me and my brothers while Alec and Keela talk."

Aideen was happy with that and headed into the house with Ryder on her heels. I wanted to slap her silly, she just bloody abandoned me in my time of need. Some best friend she is!

"You're the last person I expected to see today, kitten. How did you know where I lived?" Alec asked me as he leaned his shoulder against the doorframe.

I shrugged. "Branna told Aideen and Aideen told me."

I let my eyes wander everywhere except for his body and face, he didn't like this though because he reached out and gripped my chin with his fingers and lifted my head until I was looking at him.

"Why won't you look at me?" he asked.

I shrugged. "Because."

He smiled and dropped his hand. "Because what?"

Because you're the hottest person I have ever seen.

His brothers were fine as hell but Alec was... in your face hot! That hot!

I shrugged again. "Just because."

Alec chuckled and folded his arms across his chest. "To what do I owe this unannounced pleasure, miss?"

I rolled my eyes and said, "Daley."

"Miss Daley." Alec smiled.

I stared at his smile before I looked down and mumbled, "I need to ask you somethin'."

"Okay, but look at me when you do it."

I felt my heart pound against my chest as butterflies filled my stomach. "Look, it's hard enough to swallow my pride and ask a stranger this question, a stranger who I had an argument with less then twelve hours ago."

Alec regarded me. "You physically assaulted me less than twelve hours ago as well."

I snapped my head up and fixed a deadly glare on him. "Are you tryin' to piss me off?"

A thoughtful look fell over his face as he scratched his chin. "You clearly aren't shy when you're angry, I'm helping you relax."

I clenched my hands into fists. "I'm not shy at all."

"Then ask the question that you came here to ask me," he challenged.

I glanced at my surroundings and said, "Can we not do this inside?"

Alec raised his brows as he gave me a once over, but did as requested and pushed away from the doorframe and strightened to his full height. He then turned to his side and gestured me into the house with his hand. I swallowed and turned to my side so I could slide past him. While I shimmed by him I locked eyes with his pecs then looked up to his handsome face.

"Hi," he smiled down at me, revealing deep identical dimples in his cheeks.
