“Well, now we have to wait until the storm passes before we go home,” Parker said. “I’m not getting soaked.”

“Me either.” Julian grinned.

“How about a game of poker?” I asked them.

Julian reached into his wallet and counted his cash. “I have five hundred dollars on me. You?” He glanced at Parker.

“Uh, let me check.” Parker pulled out his wallet. “I have six hundred on me.”

“And I have five hundred on me.” I smiled.

There was a knock at the door. Looking at the security monitor, I saw it was our father.

“What is he doing here?” Julian asked.

“Let’s find out. Dad,” I said, opening the door.

“It’s a monsoon out here.” He stepped inside.

“What are you doing here, Dad?” I asked as I walked over to the bar and poured him a scotch.

“I was in the area, and it started pouring to the point where I couldn’t see at all, so I made a turn, and here I am.” He smiled.

“Hey, Dad.” Parker walked into the living room and hugged him.

“Dad.” Julian did the same.

“Hello, boys. What are you two doing here?”

“What do you mean? We’re always here,” Julian said.

“Ah, that’s right. You three are attached at the hip at all times.”

“Dad, that is not true,” Parker said. “If you’re staying, you’re playing poker with us.”

“Yeah. How much do you have on you?” Julian asked him.

“About two grand,” our father said.

Julian hooked his arm around him. “Come on, Papa. Let’s go play some poker.” He kissed his cheek.

“So, whatever happened with that woman you were working with? Morgan, right?” our father asked.

“She’s upstairs taking a bath,” Parker said.

“She’s living with Roman,” Julian chimed in.

“Excuse me?” Our father looked at me. “You’re living together?”

“It’s a temporary situation. She’s only staying here until she returns to New York,” I said.

“But Roman is hoping she stays, and then he’s going to hold her captive in his house.” Julian grinned.

“Shut up, douchebag. Don’t listen to him, Dad.”

We started playing poker. A few minutes into the game, Morgan walked into the kitchen, wearing a tank top and baggy sweatpants with her hair pulled up in a messy bun. Instantly, my cock started to get hard. God, she was so sexy.

“Mr. Hamilton, I didn’t know you were here.”
