I shook my head. “Delayed, but I didn’t get on.” At their identical look of confusion, I explained. “I canceled my trip to Rio.”
Dash’s head dropped back and he sighed. I felt the pent-up tension leave his body. “Thank god.”
Jackson shot him a warning look. “Not that we’d judge if you still went ahead with your trip. We were just worried.”
I grinned, wiped the tears from my cheeks with my fingers. “I know. I get it.” And I did. With these guys, it was never about trying to control me or my life. They didn’t put down my career or demean my choices. But they worried about me because they cared. The most amazing part was, they loved me enough for me to make my own choices even though they were so worried they got on a plane to come after me.
“Are you heading somewhere else instead?” Jackson asked.
A smile still tugged at my lips as I nodded. “I have a new destination.”
They were listening intently, probably waiting for me to drop a bombshell about another exotic location.
“It’s for a long-term assignment,” I said, trying to feign a seriousness despite the fact that everything in me wanted to jump up and down with joy.
“Oh yeah, where to now?” Dash
asked. His tone was guarded, as if holding judgment of whether he liked it or not depending on what I said.
I bit my lip. “It’s this little town called Bridgewater, Montana.” I looked from Dash to Jackson, absorbing every detail of their shock and dawning excitement. “Ever heard of it?”

We barely made it inside the hotel room before I was pinned against the door. The hotel room was different, but everything else was the same. I was eager to be with Jackson and Dash. Wanted whatever the night would bring. This time, I knew it wasn’t just for a night. It was forever.
It was Dash who ground his hard cock against me as Jackson threw our bags onto the couch.
Once I’d made it clear I was taking the next flight back in the morning, my guys bought tickets for the same plane before booking us into a nearby hotel.
I’d barely been able to wait until we got into our room before I reached out for them, needing to feel their bodies against mine. Now that my decision had been made, I needed to make it official.
I wanted to show them how I felt, what I wanted. But they deserved to hear the words, too.
“Are you sure about this?” Dash asked as he gripped my ass and moved me away from the door so the three of us could tumble onto the king-sized bed.
“I’m positive,” I said. They both hovered over me, one on each side.
It was now or never. Reaching out, I placed one hand on their chests, absorbing their heat as I summoned up the courage to say what I’d known deep down for days now…maybe since the first moment I saw them at the gate in Minneapolis.
“I love you,” I said, marveling at the instant shift in them.
Their eyes grew dark and hooded, filled with such intensity, it was almost unbearable. I’d never even imagined I could be so loved by one man, let alone two.
“I love you too, sweetheart,” Jackson said, leaning down to kiss my shoulder.
“I love you. You’re everything to us,” Dash said, stroking my cheek. “Maybe we should have told you before. Because asking you to stay, to be with us, wasn’t what you needed to hear.”
I felt their hearts beating beneath my palms. “I think you’re right. It’s all that matters. You guys are everything to me, too. I mean…I want you to be.” Oh hell, I was making a mess of this.
“What are you saying, baby doll?” Dash asked.
“I’m saying…” I took a deep breath, steadying my nerves. “I’m not just going back with you guys for a temporary stay until my next assignment.”
The air grew heated and heavy between the three of us as they waited for me to continue. I swallowed down the last of my nerves. “I mean, I might take the occasional trip. You know, if it’s a really good assignment that I can’t turn down or—”
Jackson took my hand and interrupted my babbling by kissing my palm. “What do you want?”
“I want to be with you guys,” I breathed. “For the long haul.”
