“Yes. This year. I don’t want to wait to be called ‘wife’. I don’t want to wait to call you three my husbands,” I say. “I like Lief’s idea of us being in white. I like you guys have already looked at venues. Let’s make it happen this spring or summer.”

“Guys, I think Valerie wants to marry us,” Lief says, deadpan.

I elbow him, and he cracks, smiling and kissing my uninjured temple.

“Well, now that we know you’re crushing on us ...” Hunter winks at me.

“Maybe we’ll have to draw it out, make you wait a little more,” Chase teases.

“Absolutely not. You three love me and we’re getting married. Be my husbands sooner rather than later.”

“You know demands aren’t very attractive.” Hunter licks his bottom lip. “But since I love you, dorogaya.”

“The sooner the better,” Chase agrees. “We better get a venue and start on invitations.”

I look between my men. Fiancé isn’t good enough anymore. It’s time for them to be husbands. It’s time for our version of a happily ever after.
