Page 11 of Passion & Betrayal

I exhaled and released some of the tension I’d been holding since finding out I had two mates and their clubs were enemies.

“All right. Would you like to sit down?” I asked. I hope they said yes because my knees were shaking.

I indicated a larger outdoor table. “Is this fine?”

Both men nodded.

I walked over and sat in one of the chairs.

When both men moved their chairs away from the table, it almost devastated me. Did they not want me? God, they could both deny the triad mating, and then I’d end up alone.

“Babe, get that look off your face. If we sit any closer, we’ll have you stripped and on the table,” Sypher said.

Cian nodded. “We know how much you want us right now, and it’s just making our need for you deeper, and my strength of holding back from touching you is unstable.”

I calmed down and smiled. I liked that they could already sense my emotions, or maybe it was easier to read them. I’d never been good at hiding how I feel.

“What’s your suggestion?” Cian asked.

“Oh, I’m not sure. We have to live together, don’t we?” I asked.

Both men nodded.

“I could ask to see if we could live here,” I said.

The men looked at each other again.

Sypher laughed. “No, the last thing we need is to live with the mafia.”

“Will one of your homes work for us?” I asked.

Sypher looked at me. “You know we’re enemies, right?”

I nodded. “Yes. But I’m hoping this mating will change it.” At least, I hoped it did. I didn’t want to go back and forth between their homes all the time.

Sypher sighed. “We discussed it, and I agreed to live at Cian’s house. I’ll have my own office there, but I’ll try to return to my club several times a week. My vice will be in charge when I’m not there.”

I started to worry when both men’s faces hardened. “Is that going to disrupt your life?”

“Probably at first,” Sypher said. “But we’ll make it work. We have to because both of us want you.”

“What do I do now?” I asked.

“You pack your bags, and I’ll have someone get you in a few hours,” Cian said.

“Will we be in the same bedroom?” The thought of lying between the two in bed sent a shiver down my back.

“We’ll use mine for now, but we’re already planning on making my father’s and the bedroom next to his big enough for the three of us. We’ll be able to find a bed that all three of us will be comfortable in,” Cian said.

My brows lifted. “Is your father okay with us taking his room?”

“He doesn’t have a choice,” Cian said. “I’m the prez of our club now. I’m going to encourage him to live down South with his brother because it will be hard for him to take orders from me.”

I nodded.

Both men stood.

Cian sighed. “I’d kiss you, but I’m too close to the edge. But tonight, you’ll feel what having two mates is like.”
