Orchidea: Love on the Bayou 3

Mikayla

Mikayla Aubert is trying to grow her real estate business. Michael, Antoine, Pierre, and Douglas Fromm are making an attempt to get to know her better despite their busy schedules. A ménage relationship is exactly what they have hoped for to be able to commit to one woman and make her their everything.

When she is assaulted by an enemy and doesn’t inform them immediately, they must lay down their rules and make her see that her safety is their priority. When she is then threatened by a potential serial killer as well as Bennitto Florres, they take matters into their own hands to protect her. But Mikayla is an independent woman and she wants to handle things on her own. They must learn to compromise before they lose her completely.

Note: There is no sexual relationship or touching for titillation between or among siblings.

Prologue

 

Illeanna, Angelina, and Ellena watched as Marie Cherise Laveau entered Aubert’s Restaurant. She had been hanging around a lot lately, giving her advice and little voodoo hints of foreboding events or potential situations. Illeanna felt her belly tighten. She prayed that she wasn’t pregnant. Not now, not when they were all planning to buy out the building next door and expand Aubert’s Restaurant to include dinner, dancing, and live bands. They were still in the early stages of planning, but each day they moved closer to completion. At this rate Armand, Remi, and Marcel and their men would have Secret Pleasures complete and the new addition to Aubert’s Restaurant halfway through to completion. They were gutting the place next door and renovating completely inside, but maintaining the outside old-town appeal. They would spiffy it up when they all agreed on the appearance of the outside.

A quick glance at Cherise, and Illeanna felt uneasy. Everyone was still on edge with the fact that Bennitto Flores remained at large. Neither Michael Fromm, the CIA, nor the FBI had been successful in tracking him down. She didn’t want to think about that now. It had been scary enough.

“Mornin’, child. Your sister Mikayla coming by for lunch today?” Cherise asked in a very serious tone. That was Cherise, barely did that woman ever smile. She was always so serious.

“Not sure really. I can call her and see. She’s been real busy with work,” Illeanna replied.

Cherise stared at her, and Illeanna didn’t know what to do. She felt her belly tighten again and a weird sensation tingle through her body. She had planned on calling Mikayla anyway. She had something to talk to her about. Well, vent really.

“Well?” Cherise stated loudly then waved her hand toward the phone as if asking her what the hell she was waiting for.

“Okay, I’ll call her now,” Illeanna said then picked up the phone.

 

* * * *

 

Mikayla Aubert was looking over her e-mails on the computer and scheduling the remainder of the week on her iPhone. This was getting to be too much. How could one person handle all of this? She had five agents working under her, and yet here she was inundated with more potential buyers. As her cell phone rang, she hesitated answering it but then glanced at the caller ID.

“Hi, Illeanna, what’s going on?” Mikayla asked her sister as she leaned back in the chair and took an uneasy breath. She was feeling overwhelmed.

“Oh, the same ole same ole. The guys are driving me crazy, we’re trying to look over plans for the restaurant today, and well, actually Cherise is here and was wondering if you were making it by for lunch.”

Mikayla felt her belly tighten. Cherise was there looking for her? Something was up.

“I can’t make it today. I am swamped,” Mikayla told her sister, and she heard Illeanna cover the phone then say good-bye.

“What’s going on?” Mikayla asked.

“I have no idea. I was just worried that Cherise was going to tell me I was pregnant.”

Mikayla laughed. “Like that would be such a terrible thing?”

“No, not terrible just inconvenient at the moment. I can hardly even breathe lately with the men constantly around me hovering. Right now Gustave and Johnny are parked outside of the restaurant. People are talking, Mikayla,” Illeanna stated, sounding frustrated and embarrassed. Mikayla wished she had men watching over her like that. Illeanna and Angelique were very lucky.

“People talk no matter what anyway. I mean you are involved with a ménage relationship and now building a big classy restaurant in Orchidea. What do you think people in our town will do? They’re thrilled and excited about the potential of more business coming their way. This is all going to change things around town and in all our lives. I’ve been getting a lot of calls over the open land outside of Orchidea. The buzz is starting.” Mikayla swallowed the nervous sensation as she thought about Dr. Antoine Fromm and of course Michael. She hadn’t heard from them in a few weeks. And even then it was just a quick call to say hello, and she felt as if they were checking on her. She hadn’t seen either man since after the incident with Illeanna and Bennitto Flores. She didn’t like thinking about that. But now Antoine and Michael were interested in getting together for her to show them the property outside of Orchidea this week. It was so strange. She wasn’t sure if one of them liked her or both of them, and she wasn’t sure what she wanted anyway.

“Hey, are you still there?” Illeanna asked, interrupting Mikayla’s thoughts.

“Yeah, I’m still here. I’m just so damn busy. I can’t keep up.”

“I thought you just hired two new agents last month?”

“I did, Illeanna, but I keep getting these recommendations from I don’t know who. The potential buyers and sellers won’t tell me but only that I came highly recommended.”

“Ohhh sounds interesting. Maybe it’s some hunky guy or guys interested in ya?”

“Oh please, Mikayla. Things like that really don’t happen.”

“Who knows, maybe you’ll get a visit from CIA agent Michael Fromm or his hot doctor brother, Antoine. He did an awesome job by the way with Julien.”

“How is Julien doing?”

“Oh, changing the subject huh? He’s doing great. Just about a hundred percent and back working with Louis.”

“You sound a bit worried.”

“I am, but I also want them back working. It’s a mix of emotions really. They need to keep busy and get back to their professions. I’m just so exhausted. I’ve got too much going on with the demolition and revamp next door, the plans for the new place, meeting with the architect and designers, never mind the restaurant supply companies that have been soliciting business and don’t forget all the sex I’ve been having.”

“What?” Mikayla asked, completely shocked by Illeanna’s last statement. She should be thrilled to have such men adoring her with love and attention.

“I’m only half complaining really. Well, not complaining as much as venting to you I guess. It’s wonderful to have such strong, sexy men care for me and adore me, but I’m one person and I’m tired.”

Mikayla chuckled.

“Oh, you poor thing, getting sex all the time, it has to be rough.”

“Oh stop that! It’s not what I meant.”

“I have no clue as to what that feels like, so I’m not going to give any advice but one thing.”

“Oh really? Okay, let me have it.”

“You need to talk to the guys. Sit Johnny, Gustave, Franco, Julien, and Louis down and explain how overwhelmed you’re feeling. This is important if you want the relationship to work out.”

“I know you’re right. To get intimately involved with one of these men a woman has to be a glutton for punishment, but all five and I must be insane.” Illeanna sounded so frustrated but happy.

“You’ll survive. Listen, I have to go. I’ll call you later.”

“Okay. Good luck and thanks for the talk.”
