Sexy, sexy males.

She was already half in love with them.

“I already gave you the quick rundown of things,” Titus said. “You know it’s Thursday through Sunday nights, three sets of one hour each at eight, ten, and midnight. We’d like to offer you the gig.”

“It’s five hundred a night for you guys to split,” Duke said. “There will be different drink specials each night, and you’ll get another ten percent of those drink sales. You can also set up a merch table and if you have a website, we can link to that on our bar’s website.”

Demi had no idea if the money Duke mentioned was good for a band or not, but she thought it was neat they got a percentage of drink sales. And she definitely wanted to have a Midnight Grizzlies shirt to wear.

“If you take other gigs like parties or weddings, we have a band we can use to fill in, but we’d prefer not to have that be a habit.”

“It wouldn’t be,” Rebel said. “The bar would be our priority, and any gigs we accepted would either be for during the weekend days or weekdays.”

Titus nodded in agreement.

Rhaider looked at Rebel and Maverick. “Are you guys happy?”

“We are,” Maverick said. “We talked last night and we think it’s a great place to work.”

“Yep,” Rebel said.

“Good,” Rafe said. He looked at Duke. “We accept the job.”

“Great,” Duke said.

“Could we do something about requests?” Titus asked. “I don’t want people coming up to you while you’re playing and distracting you.”

“I made an app,” Maverick said. “We’ll have the QR code on our merch table. People can use the app to request songs and see our catalog of music.”

“That’s awesome,” Duke said. “Welcome aboard. So, what’s the plan for living arrangements?”

Ree smacked his shoulder. “You can’t ask that yet! They just met last night.”

“They’re heart-matches,” Duke said, giving Ree an indulgent smile. “And lions move fast when it comes to matters of the heart.”

Her males looked at her, and Demi said, “We haven’t fully discussed it yet. Maverick and Rebel are staying at the B&B, but Rafe and Rhaider can stay with me at my place.”

For now, she thought. It wasn’t really big enough for three adults, not to mention she hoped to start a family someday. And their band would need a place to practice.

“So, about the pride,” Duke said. He put his arm around Ree. “Once you’re mated, you can join the pride as members. Although your mating as a trio isn’t usual, our pride isn’t in the business of telling anyone how to live their private lives. All of you are welcome to hunt in the territory with our people. We have a big hunt once a month. If any of you want to go out in your shift at other times, let me or Titus know and we’ll get some people to go out with you. It would be easier to have lions with you instead of you by yourselves, since natural bears don’t come into our territory and I wouldn’t want you to be harmed if someone freaked out.”

“That sounds great,” Rhaider said. “We’ll keep you posted.”

Demi definitely liked the idea of mating them officially. She couldn’t wait to get them alone again.

“Are you looking for work?” Titus asked.

“We’re both teachers,” Rafe said, “so yes we’re looking for work, and we’ll also offer private music lessons once we get settled and have rehearsal space. Rebel and Maverick will be looking for work too.”

“If I hear of anything, I’ll let you know,” Titus said. “We don’t have any openings at the bar right now.”

“That’s no problem,” Rhaider said. “Now that we’ve got the gig, we can get moving on all that other stuff.”

“Sounds good,” Duke said. “So, you’ll start tonight?”

“Of course,” Rafe said.

“Wait, don’t you want to take time off?” Ree asked.
