Chapter Thirty-Six
Baxter
“Sorry there’s only the coffee table. I never thought about putting a small dining area in before.” I frown. I’ve never had company here before. Well, not the kind that I feed and socialise with, and definitely not the kind that leave the premises still breathing.
“It’s perfect. And it smells delicious.” Raven smiles, eyeing the two steaming plates of pasta and two large glasses of red wine that I’ve laid out on the low rough wooden coffee table, along with cutlery. We take our seats and dig in.
“God, this is gorgeous.” Raven groans seductively, the sound shooting straight to my groin and stirring my cock to life. “You should get your friendly associate to cook for me more often.”
I frown again.
“You like him. Because he cooks?” I vow to kill him at the first opportunity I have. Right after I learn to cook so that I can elicit those sounds from her outside of the bedroom.
“God yeah, this is heaven. Don’t you dare tell Ace!”
I smile at the panic on her face when she realises that she just foodgasm cheated on her favourite chef.
“I guess we all have our roles,” I say, thinking of how easily I seem to have fitted into this new life with a girlfriend, a kid and four...brother husbands? Fuck, that’s fucking weird. I’ve never fit in anywhere and suddenly this is my calling in life?
Raven laughs.
“Funny you should say that. Nix has given you all nicknames. Though I strongly suspect she was heavily influenced by Thorn.”
“Hit me. What are they?”
“Well, Jax is strict daddy.”
“Obviously.” I smile. He’s even more uptight than me, and I didn’t think that was possible.
“Rebel’s bad word daddy. Thorn’s fun daddy…”
“Of course.” I raise my brows and shake my head. He’s such an asshole. Like a damn kid pouting all the time. Though of course, Rebel’s not much better.
“Ace is apparently sugar daddy because he gives her cookies.” A surprised laugh slips free and Raven grins at me. “I know. I’m trying to get her to change it to cookie daddy or something.”
“I can just imagine her lost in a supermarket and asking customer service for her sugar daddy.”
“We’d be arrested,” she says with a laugh.
We finish up our meal in silence and when we’re done we move on to the wine.
“Who am I then?” I ask, noticing that she neglected to mention my nickname from Nix earlier.
“Oh! You’re danger daddy.” She giggles.
“Like Danger Mouse?”
“She’s not old enough to know who that is.” She shakes her head. I think about it for a moment. Why would she call me that then unless...
“Do I scare her?” I ask, horrified.
“What?! No! Of course not. This is all Thorn. It’s probably because you deal with all the dangers we face. He’s just being a smart ass.”
I hope so. I would hate for Nix to see the real me. The one that isn’t worthy of a love so pure and given so freely by her and Raven.
“Hey, stop that.” She slips her hand into mine and squeezes, knowing exactly what I’m thinking. Suddenly, I worry that this was all a horrible idea.
But it’s too late now.
