Élise took a deep breath, feeling her heart beating wildly.
“It’s complicated, Anna. There's something I need to talk to you about, something… very personal. »
Anna leaned forward, placing her hand on Elise's. “You know that you can tell me everything. I'm here for you. »
Élise smiled weakly, appreciating her friend's unwavering support. “Well, remember the Dante brothers I told you about? My bosses? »Anna nodded. “Of course, how could I forget them? Three handsome billionaires, each with their own charm. » Élise blushed slightly. “Yes, them. Well… I developed feelings for them. For all three. »
Anna blinked, surprised. “For all three? You mean…at the same time time ? »
Élise nodded, her gaze fixed on her cup. " Yes that's exactly it. They're all so different, but each one of them makes me feel something unique. And the worst part is that I think they also feel something for me. »
Anna was silent for a moment, digesting the information. Then, a smile Amusement appeared on his lips. “Well, my dear Élise, you are in a damn unique situation. But tell me, what attracts you to each of them ? »
Élise took a sip of her coffee before responding, searching for words. “Drake, the oldest, is so dominant. He has this authoritarian presence that makes me melt every time he walks into a room. John is the most gentle and caring. He has this way of making me feel special, like

“And what did you answer? »
“I said yes,” Élise whispered, her heart beating faster as she thought of this moment. " I want to try. I want to see where this takes us. » Anna burst out laughing, attracting a few curious looks from the other customers of the coffee. “My dear Élise, you are more courageous than I thought. But I am happy for you. If this is what you really want, then go for it. But take care of yourself. This kind of situation can get very complicated. » Élise smiles, grateful for Anna’s support. “Thank you, Anna. I knew I could count on you. »
Meanwhile, in the Dante's luxurious penthouse, the three brothers were gathered in the living room, discussing the complex situation in where they were.
" So what do you think ? » asked Dav, the youngest, sitting on the sofa. “We are really going to try something with Elise? »
Drake, sitting in an armchair across from him, nodded. " Yes. I think that it is time to stop beating around the bush. We all feel something for her, and I'm sure she feels something too for us. »
John, the youngest, crossed his arms, his gaze serious. “But how are we going to we handle this? This is not an ordinary situation. We have to be careful not to hurt her. »
Drake sighed, running a hand through his hair. " I know. But I think that with communication and understanding, we canarrive. Élise is an incredible woman, and I don't want to lose her cause of complications or misunderstandings. »
Dav smiled, his usual enthusiasm shining in his eyes. " And then, let's face it, it could be incredibly exciting. I always was attracted to her, and I'm sure we can offer her something unique. »
John shook his head, amused. “As optimistic as ever, Dav. But you have reason. If we do this, we need to make sure she feels loved and respected. This is the most important thing. »
Drake nodded, his gaze determined. " All right. We are going to do it. But we need to be on the same page and ensure that each of us is equally involved. No jealousy, no power games. Just love and respect. »
The three brothers exchanged a look, each of them feeling the weight of the decision they had just made. They knew it wouldn't be easy, but they were willing to try. For Élise, and for themselves.
