Miles reaches out and hooks his fingers under my chin, lifting until I’m forced to make eye contact with him again. “I’ll decide if it’s nothing.”
“It’s silly,” I tell him, feeling my cheeks heat with embarrassment.
“You can tell us anything,” Jake says, leaning closer until his chest is pressed against my back, giving me his body as comfort.
When I realise they’re not going to drop this, I let out a huff. “Fine. I’m just a bit jealous. Don’t get me wrong, I’m incredibly happy for them, but it doesn’t stop me being a little jealous. I’llnever be able to have that…to get married and have kids. I didn’t know it bothered me until now.”
Both Jake and Miles freeze, looking at each other in confusion. “Why can’t you have that?” Jake asks tentatively.
I let out a harsh laugh as I point to each of them in turn. “There are two of you, and legally, I can only marry one person. Do you see the problem?” I can’t keep the sarcasm out of my voice, and Miles glares at me, clearly not happy with my tone.
His expression softens as he looks over at Jake, whose cheeks have turned a bright shade of red. They exchange shy glances before Jake turns me around until I can see them both.
When Jake starts to talk, it’s clear he’s nervous, but Miles places his hand on his leg in reassurance. “Well, we’ve actually talked about this. I will need to marry as part of my leadership role. Miles said he’d be okay with it, as he knows it’s only for show.
“As for the baby thing, when the time comes, we’ll both be the kid’s dad. DNA doesn’t matter to us. We’ll both love the baby as if it were our own.”
Miles nods, his lips lifting into a hesitant smile as he keeps his eyes fixed on me, watching for my response. I’m sure he can see the shock that’s plastered across my face. Whether it’s from what they said, or the fact they’ve been discussing this between themselves, I’m not sure.
“You’ve spoken about this?” I’m not sure what else to say, as my brain is struggling to keep up.
Miles nods. “Jake was worried because his father made it clear he still needs to marry. He wanted to ask you when the time was right, but was concerned it would bother me.”
My sweet Miles. I can’t help but smile at his self-sacrificing nature. “What about you, Miles? I want the world to know I love you both, and I’m not sure they’d know that if I married Jake.”
“I said the same thing. I want them to know I love you too, Miles,” Jake adds.
Miles gives us both a reassuring smile, his gaze flicking between us before he seems to turn a little shy. “Well, I was thinking, maybe you could use a hyphenated last name, combining both of ours. You’ll be a Santoro legally, but will change it to Santoro-Gibson after the wedding.”
I pause for a second, thinking it over. I’m not hesitating over taking their last names. I just want more than that. I can see Miles becoming apprehensive the longer I take to respond.
“I will take the name Santoro-Gibson, but only if we all do. I want us all to share the same name, and when the time comes, our kids will use that too.”
The smile on both men’s faces grows so wide, it could light up the whole street. “We’ll be a family, all with the same name,” Jake says proudly, his eyes glistening as Miles nods in agreement.
“This isn’t us asking you to marry us right now. When the time comes, we will do it properly, so you won’t be able to joke that we’re not romantic. You can marry Jake in front of everyone who needs to see him legally get married, but we’ll have a commitment ceremony for the three of us, with the people who we care about present. How does that sound?” Miles asks, and I can’t stop the tear from sliding down my cheek.
“It sounds like a dream…and I can’t wait,” I tell him, as he wipes the tear away with his thumb.
Miles then drops his gaze, looking a little shy. “You’re even okay with the baby part?”
I reach over and capture his cheeks between my hands, lifting his head until he has no choice but to look at me. I let him see all of my emotions, not hiding anything from him.
“I can’t wait to start a family with both of you when the time is right. I never thought it would be an option for us, but if youare really okay with both being a dad, without knowing who is the biological father, then of course I want that.”
Miles is quick to nod, and Jake mutters his agreement, before smirking as he adds, “I vote we practice baby making right now.”
As soon as I nod in agreement, both of their gazes turn hungry, and it doesn’t take long before their lips are on me as we pull each other’s clothes off. We fall into a mass of limbs as we frantically try to get closer, to touch, feel, and taste one another.
Miles quickly takes control as his cock slides into my wet, aching pussy, whilst instructing Jake to take my mouth. I’m on my hands and knees as they both use my body, drawing out my pleasure in a way only these two men know how.
I shudder through my release, knowing it won’t be the only one these two men give me tonight. They can’t get enough, and neither can I.
It’s hard to believe that a few months ago, this was something I didn’t even dare to dream about, and now it’s my life. Not only am I safe, and no longer having to run, I’m thinking about the future I might have.
I can actually be a wife and a mother, and I know the two men I gave my heart to will stop at nothing to give me anything I want, including the things I didn’t dare dream about.
Our relationship may not be traditional, or what people expect of us, but it’s ours, and we’ve fought for it. I finally have a family, and now I know what it feels like to be loved and cared for, to feel safe, I’ll never settle for anything less.
