“Did I say you could move?” Salem said sternly.

She froze and then slid back into place. Alexei put the ice pack on her forehead.

“Roman didn’t wake up?” Salem asked.

“Nah, he must have been tired. Probably stayed up late working.”

“Right,” Salem said. “Are you going for a workout this morning?”

Why was he talking about such mundane shit? Shouldn’t they be talking about what had just happened?

But Salem sent him a look that told him he better answer.

“Ah, I guess. Maybe I will. I have to go to headquarters today for training.”

He fucking hated training. He couldn’t understand why Riordan had him training new agents rather than something useful.

“More training? That’s not right. Why would he assign you to training? You hate it and you’re no good at it. You just end up yelling at everyone.”

“Exactly what I said. I don’t fucking know what’s going on.” Alexei shrugged his shoulders as he glanced down at Tamsyn again.

Oh.

She seemed to have relaxed further. Is that why Salem kept asking him questions? Was the mundane, everyday talk helping her relax?

“What are you doing today?” he asked.

“I was meant to go in, but I’ve decided to work from home.”

Relief filled him. He’d been worried about her being alone after this. But Salem would take care of her.

And this is why this sort of relationship worked for him. He hadn’t grown up thinking he would ever share his woman. Fuck. He’d always been possessive of his stuff because he’d had so little that was his growing up.

But being possessive of Tamsyn wasn’t what was good for her. What was best for her was having one of them here to look after her needs.

He wasn’t sure he would be able to go to work if he knew she was on her own.

“That’s good,” he said. “Because I think Roman has a meeting at headquarters too. Is it all right if I touch her?”

“Of course. Pet, Alexei is worried about you so he’s going to touch you.”

He ran his hand up and down her back. Despite their best efforts, she didn’t seem to be gaining much weight. They should try harder.

He should try harder.

Maybe it was weird to be kneeling here when one of his best friends was getting their dick sucked.

Ask him if he cared, though?

He didn’t.

All he cared about was her. Fuck, she had him wrapped around her little finger.

He couldn’t let her know, though. He glanced up at Salem who was watching him closely. The other man just nodded at him. There was a look of understanding in Salem’s face.

Yeah, if anyone got Alexei’s feelings for Tamsyn, it would be Salem.

Even more than Roman.
