I obeyed, my pulse racing as I crawled backward, the three of them following, a storm of heat and hunger in their eyes.
Kai was the first to reach me, his body settling between my thighs, his lips trailing fire down my collarbone and across the swell of my breast, teasing, worshipping.
Adam’s hands explored, mapping every inch of my skin, while Samuel watched me, his controlled gaze devouring every reaction, every sound, before finally leaning in.
Samuel’s lips brushed against my ear, his voice rough with a powerful desire. “Do you feel it, Sadie? How much we love you?”
A shiver ran through me at the sheer emotion in his voice. Before I could answer, Kai’s mouth found the curve of my throat, pressing open-mouthed kisses along my skin, his hands framing my waist like he couldn’t bear to let go.
“I love you,” Kai murmured, his lips skimming over my shoulder. “Always have, S. Always will.”
My chest tightened with something too big to hold inside.
Adam’s fingers traced up my arm, over my ribs, reverent and careful. “You’re it for us, sweetheart,” he said, his voice thick with emotion. “There’s no one else. There never could be.”
I turned toward him, needing to see the truth in his eyes, and when I did, my heart nearly broke from the intensity there.
“I love you,” I whispered, my voice barely steady. “All of you. So much.”
Samuel’s fingers tilted my chin, his dark eyes burning into mine. “Say it again.”
I exhaled shakily, cupping his face as I repeated the words, letting them pour out of me like they had been waiting my whole life to be spoken. “I love you.”
His jaw clenched, a flicker of vulnerability passing through his gaze before he kissed me—slow, deep, consuming. Like he was memorizing the shape of my mouth, the taste of my love, the promise in every breath.
Kai pressed closer, his hands splayed against my back, his lips finding the curve of my shoulder, whispering, “We’re yours, S. Always.”
Adam’s fingers laced with mine, pressing our joined hands against my chest where my heart pounded. “Forever,” he murmured.
I closed my eyes, letting myself be surrounded, cherished, adored.
And all of a sudden, I realized I didn’t just believe in love… I felt it in every breath, every kiss, every whispered promise.
This was home.
Theywere home.
CHAPTER FORTY-ONE
Adam
I’d pulledoff a lot of surprises in my life—some good, some questionable, a few that had landed me in a fair amount of trouble. But this one? This one was my favorite.
Because watching Sadie walk into The Foundry and realize what we’d done for her? That was the kind of thing a man wanted to bottle up and keep forever.
She stepped through the doors, all wide eyes and parted lips, taking in every inch of the space like she wasn’t sure if she should believe it was real.
And honestly? I didn’t blame her.
The once-spare store room had been transformed into a small lounge, just for her. A place for her to hold whatever charity event she wanted to.
Exactly the kind of place she’d dreamed about.
Exactly the kind of place she deserved.
I crossed my arms, leaning against the doorframe and watching as she turned in slow circles, trying to take it all in. Kai and Samuel stood next to me, both looking entirely too pleased with themselves.
Rightfully so, if you asked me.
