Page 56 of Crave: A Reverse Harem Romance

“So you feel that too?” she asked eagerly.

I nodded. “I do. Maybe you were right. Maybe this is a way that we can all find happiness.”

She wrapped her arms around me tightly, then leaned in for a sweet, deep, loving kiss.

Then she moved to Axel and kissed him, and she kissed Diesel last. Again, there was no jealousy. I didn’t mind seeing her kiss them.

In my heart, I also felt that there were no favorites. I mean, she couldn’t even pick between us yesterday. It truly seemed like she needed to have all of us, and like it simply wasn’t going to be the same if she couldn’t. Knowing that I was just as important to her as Diesel and Axel meant so much to me.

“You guys, you have no idea how happy this makes me. Seriously, thank you. You all mean… so damn much to me.”

“We should set up some rules, though,” I suggested. “I mean… like I said, I really do want this to work. And if it’s going to work, it’s going to be because we set up clear rules from the beginning.”

Harlow nodded at me slowly and understandingly. “Okay, like what?” she asked.

“I don’t know…” I said. I hadn’t actually given it too much thought. “Like, to avoid any future jealousy, we should all spend the same amount of time with you. Like maybe we each get our own day of the week?”

“Yeah, that’s good!” Axel agreed. “There are seven days a week, so we can each have two days. Then, maybe on the seventh day, Sunday, we all hang out together!”

“Definitely,” Diesel agreed. “Especially if every Sunday we can have fantastic sex like we did yesterday.”

Harlow chuckled. “Well, I’m definitely not opposed to that. I think that’s a great idea.”

“And it gives us all time to run Crave, too. Whenever it’s not our day, we can just go run the club as usual. It’s kind of perfect.”

The more I thought about it, the more I fell in love with the idea of us all dating Harlow. And maybe this would finally pull me away from work. My business had become my life, and I didn’t even take two days off a week as it was.

Now I actually wanted to take days off. Because I wanted to spend every moment I could with Harlow.

“And hey, maybe sometimes I’ll come to the club.” Harlow smiled. “I’ve really come to love it there.”

“Sure,” Axel said. “And we’ll have security watching you like a hawk the entire time because you seem to be a magnet for dangerous situations.”

Good, so I wasn’t the only one worrying about her safety. We were all thinking the same thing in that sense.

“Yeah, yeah. Watch me like a hawk, whatever.” She shrugged.

“Uh, we’re absolutely going to,” Diesel answered seriously. “Nothing is going to happen to you. Not if we can help it.”

I saw her blush a little as she began climb out from under the covers. She had a big, oversized t-shirt on and panties underneath. Fuck, she was so goddamn sexy.

“So, are there any other rules?” she asked.

“Just no jealousy,” Axel answered.

“Absolutely. If we feel a twinge of jealousy, we need to talk about it immediately,” I added.

“There can’t be any favorites,” Diesel teased. “It’s gonna hurt my ego.”

“Trust me,” Harlow answered, “there are absolutely no favorites. I’m crazy about all of you equally, all for different reasons. I feel like even as my affection for you guys grows, the feelings are so unique to each of you that I’m never going to have a favorite.”

It touched me to hear her say that. It confirmed what I already knew. We were all deeply important to her, all in our own ways.

As we all talked this through in a serious way, I was overwhelmed with the feeling that this was going to really work. Now that I knew we were all on board and serious about dating Harlow, it felt like things were finally falling together perfectly.

Despite the fact that I loved my career, I had been feeling a sense of discontentment in my life for a long time. I wasn’t sure I was even fully aware of it until Harlow had come along, but now that she had, I knew there was something I’d been missing.

I already felt so much happier since she walked into my life, and I was so sure that was going to continue on now that we decided to be in one big, happy relationship.
