“Go on,” I said. “Open it.”

She let go of my hand and threw the door open and I heard her gasp. She turned on the light and walked into the middle of the alcove, her hands on her cheeks while her eyes tried to take in everything she was seeing. This small room had been filled with dusty bullshit when I’d first walked through it, but the moment I saw the room, I knew it was perfect for her recording studio. I’d had Rowan hit up an electronics store in town and he’d gathered everything Kyra would need in order to start her YouTube channel.

There was a digital camera and lighting equipment. There was a drape in the back with interchanging backdrops she could use, green screen included. There was a shiny new desk with a big desktop monitor that would process high-definition videos in an instant. There was the necessary software already installed on the unit, as well as microphone equipment and a soundboard to manipulate how she sounded on video.

There was even a bright new laptop sitting off to the side that she could configure any way she wanted so she could take her YouTube channel on the road.

Kyra was visibly shaking in the middle of the room and I couldn’t help but walk over toward her and wrap her in my arms.

“What is this?” she asked.

“It’s your studio,” I said simply. “So you can start up your online channel.”

“It’s about time the world heard your voice,” Blake said.

“And you’ll be able to do it while taking care of your father,” Owen said.

Kyra jumped and threaded her arms around my neck, locking her legs around me. She buried her face into the crook of my neck, smiling and giggling as I held her close to my body.

We did it.

We actually pulled this shit off.

“How in the world am I going to thank you guys?” she asked.

“Say yes,” I said as I set her down. “Say you’ll move in with us.”

“How did all of this happen?” she asked.

“Honestly? I’d been thinking about this after that first night we all shared together. It wouldn’t be fair to anyone in this house if you were forced to choose between us. So, instead of choosing, you can have all of us. If you want.”

She let go of me and walked out of the room, venturing toward the rest of my brothers. Their eyes were glued to her, watching while she smiled at them all. I wanted to know what was running through her head. I wanted to know what she was going to say. I wanted to know if we all had a future with her or if we were going to have to live our lives without her.

“Are you all on board with this?” she asked.

I looked up at my brothers and watched all of them nod. My smile hurt my cheeks and one by one, she started throwing her arms around all of them. Never in my life had my heart been so full of joy and, soon, she came running back to me and gave me one last hug.

“So, I do have a question,” she said.

“Shoot.”

“With all of us, plus my father, there’s eight of us,” she said.

“Yeah,” I said, grinning.

“So, there’s enough rooms for all of us to sleep in?”

“Yes, you can sleep anywhere you want,” I said. “We figured you might want the room on the main floor with your father, but wherever you want to sleep is your choice. Then, if you want your own space, you have it. And if you want to sleep with one of us, you have it.”

She looked up at me and shook her head in disbelief.

“The important thing is, we’ll all be together,” Ethan said.

“You don’t need to worry about going back to the city or returning to your job,” Rowan said.

“You can stay here and take care of your father while focusin’ on what you really want to do,” Blake said.

“We’ll move you and Mark in without either of you lifting a finger,” Chance said.
