“Hm.” Paige yawned. “It’s like the circle of life but with orgasms.”
“Circle of love.” I sat up, looking down at her. “I love you. I know it’s crazy in such a short amount of time, but it feels like you’re it for us.”
“I think I loved you from the moment you sat down next to me.” Ryker nuzzled his face against her neck.
“I loved you when I realized how much life you brought back to Ryker.” Luca traced a circle on her hip. “It’s funny how we just… knew.”
Her eyes filled with tears, and she sniffled. “I almost moved back, but now I’m glad I stuck around.”
“Yeah?” I ran my knuckles along the side of her breast. “Because you just got railed by three of us at once?”
She giggled and swatted at me. “Because, somehow, you three put my heart back together and I not only fell in love with three amazing men, but with myself.”
Epilogue
Paige
“Happy groundbreaking day!” I threw my arms around Ryker as he stared out the windows overlooking the city.
He turned, a smile lighting up his face before he leaned in and kissed me. “Good morning, beautiful.”
Ryker tucked me under his arm and turned us to face the window. It was quiet moments like these, staring out as the city came to life, that filled me with so much happiness.
The past ten months with my partners had been nothing short of amazing. Not long after the gala, we’d decided to move in together since it was starting to become a pain in the ass to rotate to a different person’s place every few days, and my short-term lease was up.
They’d ultimately left the decision of where we’d call home up to me, and it just made sense to move into the biggest place where we could still have our own spaces. As much as I loved Garrett’s place, it just was too small for me to keep my sanity with three men.
Luca’s penthouse had plenty of space for the four of us, and since Luca hadn’t done much in the way of decorating, we all decided together how to make it all of ours. We each had our own rooms—which we rarely slept in—plus the primary suite where we’d ordered the biggest bed known to man.
Living together was comfortable and surprisingly easy. We, of course, had little squabbles about the level of cleanliness we were each willing to accept, but we agreed from the get-go to communicate instead of keeping our feelings bottled up inside.
“Why couldn’t we have planned this thing for the afternoon?” Luca grumbled as he walked into the kitchen with Garrett and opened the cabinet with the cups.
“Shouldn’t have stayed up so late last night.” Garrett reached around Luca, who was staring blankly at the shelf of coffee mugs. “Your mug is in the dishwasher.”
“Are the dishes clean?” Luca sounded so confused I had to laugh. He was not a morning person until he had his coffee, and then it was like his brain fully turned on.
“They’re dirty.” Garrett grabbed a second mug and filled them both. “You’ll survive drinking out of this one.”
“You know, Luca’s morning grumpiness is really good practice for when we have kids.”
Apparently, I needed coffee too.
“We’re having kids?” Luca’s voice cracked like he was going through puberty. “Holy shit! Are you pregnant?”
“No.” I laughed, putting my hand on my stomach. “I said when. We really should get a coffee maker for the bedroom, or maybe an IV drip.”
“Back up a second.” Ryker turned me to face him. “So, you do want children? With us?”
I shrugged. “I could go either way. Probably a conversation we need to have soon. To make sure we’re all on the samepage.” I suppressed a giggle. I hated when other people made a joke out of my name, but it was fair game for myself.
“We all want kids.” Ryker kissed my cheek. “We were thinking three.”
My eyes widened. “You guys talked about this without me?”
Panic crossed Ryker’s face, and I put my hand on his arm. It wasn’t that it upset me, it was just surprising.
Garrett sighed and leaned against the kitchen island. “We did. It’s a serious conversation, and with three potential fathers, we didn’t want it to turn into a mess. And he’s joking about three. We can have however many you want.”
