Lane patted my hip. “I’m going to let you in on something. I like it when you and Alton fuck me. I like to fuck you and Alton. I don’t care who’s doing what as long as we’re coming by the end. Asleep, awake, in bed, or against the shower wall, fuck me whenever and wherever you want.”

“That’s a dangerous thing to say,” Alton murmured. “We’re going to have so much sex.”

“I’m counting on it.”

I knew without a shadow of a doubt they wanted me, no matter if I was awake or not. They’d told me before. Experiencing it was entirely different. They desired all of me and accepted me for who I was, dream fucking as Lane called it and all.

We lay there for a few minutes until Lane complained he was sticky. One by one, we pried our bodies apart until we stood in the room naked. We should check our phones, but I wanted just a little more peace before the real world broke through.

In the bathroom, I turned the shower on to a comfortable temperature then stepped in, pulling Lane and Alton with me. We didn’t rush when we soaped each other’s bodies. We didn’t have sex again. We simply cared for one another. Gentle hands and soft words of love and devotion.

As the soap rinsed from our skin, I brought us together in an embrace, one arm around Lane, the other around Alton. Wedropped our foreheads together as the water cascaded over us, beating our skin with a gentle massage.

“I love you,” I told them. “I never knew it could be like this, that I would not only get to have you both, but that you’d accept all of me.”

“There’s nothing to accept, Ray,” Lane said. “There’s only love. We’ll take every part of you, dark or light, and love you so much, you won’t ever second-guess anything again.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re both amazing,” Alton whispered. “I thought I wouldn’t fit with you, but you showed me I do. We’re not whole unless we’re together. Without you near, part of me is missing. I didn’t know love could be this big.”

“Neither did I.” Lane let out a breath. “Who knew after all the shit I’d been through I’d wind up with two men who don’t care what my past held. You’re not the only one with insecurities, Ray. We all have them. There have been plenty of times throughout my life where I wondered where my path would lead, why I went through what I did. It was to get here, to be with you both, to support you and have you do the same for me. That’s what our big love is. We have each other no matter what.”

“We do,” I said. “I’m going to spend the rest of my life loving you.”

“Ditto.”

“Same,” Alton added.

We stood there for a while longer, not ready to leave and let anyone come into this space with us. The real world waited; it always did. As long as we had each other, we could fight whatever it threw at us. Although, if it could be a little less,I’m going to fuck shit upand moreYou deserve every good thing, that would be nice.

Deep down, I knew we’d face more trials. It was the life we led, doing what we did. No matter what, we’d find our way to each other and the solace only we could provide.

EPILOGUE

LANE

A Month Later

“What are we doing here?” I asked, glancing around at the gym. A giant rock wall towered in front of me.

“Team building,” Raiden said, clapping his hands together. He was already geared up, hooked to the line or whatever the fuck it was called.

This was so not my thing. I could shop, go to the gym in the building, torture people, and fuck like it was my full-time job, but no one should ask me to climb a goddamn rock wall.

“The fuck?” I muttered. “Why isn’t Jordan here? He can get his balls squished with the straps and scale this bitch. I’m not sure why I’m the one who has to lead this show.”

“You really want to see his sac like that?” Barrett asked and shivered. “I don’t. Jesus, Lane, why did you have to put that visual in my head?”

“Why did you have to suggest this idea?” Raiden told me it was Barrett’s. Not the whole team building bullshit. That was Jordan’s idea. Bastard. But Barrett suggested this place. We’d rented it out. No one else could come in. The instructors weren’t scared of us, so that was a plus. “You should go first.”

Barrett grinned. His dimples popped. “I thought you’d never suggest that. I live for this.”

“Lies,” Reghan coughed.

Spinning, Barrett glared at his lover. “Just for that, you can stay on the ground while I climb the wall. If I fall, you won’t be there to stop me.” Oh, he knew what he was doing. Reghan was super protective of Barrett.

“I’ll go against him,” Raiden offered.
