Keane was still.Olivia immediately softened and moved towrap her arms around their Dom.
“He means it.I’m still mad at him, but once he makes adecision, it’s done,” Olivia said.“He’s going to do his best by you.I know hecan be annoyingly overprotective, but he’s a great dad.He’s a good boss, too.I hope you’ll give him a chance.”
Keane’s arms enveloped her.“Of course I will.He’s yourdad.I’ll always give him grace.Did I thank you for saving me tonight?”
“I just told you the truth,” she whispered.
Garrett moved around to her other side so they surroundedher.“I knew you could do it.It’s why I stayed away.I never doubted you for asecond.I knew you wouldn’t reject us.”
“Never.”She kissed Keane and then turned her head andkissed Garrett, too.Then she moved slightly back.“Keane, do you havesomething to say to our partner?”
“Why don’t I show him?I’m better with actions than words.”Keane stepped in and that big warm hand was around the back of Garrett’s neckagain and he was close.So fucking close.He’d been in bed with Keane athousand times with a woman between them, but Olivia was standing to the side,her lips curled in the sweetest smile.
Was Keane about to?
His first instinct was fear.Not because he didn’t wantKeane.It was exactly what Jack had said.He was afraid they would mess up thebest relationship they ever had.
Or they could add to it.They could let go of fear andbecome what they had always wanted to be.A family.Him and Keane and Olivia.All together.No boundaries.No fences.The three of them.Forever.
When Keane’s lips pressed against his, Garrett let go.Thiswas his best friend, his Master, one of his two loves.It was right.The timewas now.
The kiss was soft at first, and then electric as Keaneseemed to let his Dom side flow.After a moment of play his tongue came out,demanding entry.With a gasp of submission, Garrett let him in and felt hiswhole body shift to arousal.Olivia was right there.
“You’re so beautiful together, my Masters,” she whispered.
Keane stepped back, a look of pure lust in his eyes.“Thenwe should get home.It was a long day, and I could use a session.But Garrett,tonight you submit.”
Garrett nodded.“Yes, Master.”
Tonight they began all over again, and he couldn’t wait.

Keane opened the door to the main house.It wasbasically a construction zone, but the redesign was coming together.
However, the playroom was still untouched.He’d heard Gabesay he would be working there next week, but it was still theirs for a fewdays.He intended to use them.
“You’re sure your dad is okay with this?”Garrett asked.
“My dad is happy I didn’t explode,” Olivia returned.“He’sfine.He’ll be okay now.I know he seems like a hardass, but he’s honestly oneof the two best dads in the world.And you should know he will mean it when hecalls you son.He treats Aidan like a son and Nicole like a daughter.He adoptedGrim and put him through school.Once my father loves you, it’s the kind ofthing you can depend on.”
“I’m good with your father,” Keane assured her.He hadn’thad a long talk with Jack Barnes yet, but he knew it was coming and he wasn’tafraid of it.“I don’t know how good I’ll be at being anyone’s son, but I thinkhe’ll be patient with me.The man is scared of you.”
It was obvious that Jack Barnes had married a strong womanand then raised one.
She smiled and locked the door.“He knows what’s good forhim.I think you’ll find the women of my mother’s line are fierce.”
Keane felt a deep thrum of anticipation in his body.It waslike a wave that swept every other emotion out to sea.Every single one exceptlove and desire.
And maybe for the first time in years, hope.
But damn, lust was in there.Lust for Olivia and heroutrageous curves and softness.Lust for Garrett, with his masculine beauty andhard lines.
His subs.
Garrett should look exhausted, but there was a restlessenergy to him that Keane hoped was anticipation.
That kiss.Finally, that kiss.Opening a door he thoughthe’d closed and locked out of fear, but Olivia held the key.
