Max made a strangled sound. “Watch it.”

I glanced over my shoulder to Max. “What’s that mean?”

“Nothing, baby. Just that he guessed about us a long time ago.”

“Baby,” Win muttered. “Kinda weird.”

“Get used to it.” Max was unapologetic.

Win held up his hands in surrender. “You just didn’t seem like the pet name type, bro.”

“He calls me Nemo too,” I said, inwardly pleased, hand going to his thigh to caress the space with the tattoo.

Max kissed my ear.

“Cereal doesn’t taste as good the second time around.” Win cautioned, pressing a hand to his stomach.

“That’s what you get for barging in here.” Max’s voice was velvet beside my ear.

Win waved away his words. “So you two are good now? No more pining I have to pretend not to see?”

“Thank you,” I rushed out, catching Win off guard. His eyes fired to mine, surprise flicking in them. “I thought you might turn your back on me.”

With a sound, Win threw himself onto the bed, snatching my shoulder to tug me away from Max and into him. My arms went around him as he hugged me, ruffling the top of my hair.

“We’re still naked.” Max reminded him.

“It’s just a dick,” Win mused. “We all have one, and he is my brother.”

I laughed against his neck.

He patted my back. “You’re my brother always. Okay? Even if you do make it with our other brother.”

My laugh turned into a groan.

“I swear to God, Win, when I have clothes on…” Max swore.

I hugged Win tighter. “Same here, okay? I’ll always be here for you.”

Pulling back, Win kissed the top of my head.

Win climbed out of the bed, leaving his bowl and spoon. Going over to where the condom lay on the floor, he shook his head. “So irresponsible.” He sighed. “Good thing you can’t get pregnant.”

“Get out,” Max roared.

I could still hear Win cackling in the hall when he shut the door behind him.

“I swear to all that’s holy,” Max muttered, but when I turned, the words died on his tongue. The black of his eyes softened like the sun was just beginning to rise in the night.

“He really doesn’t care,” I whispered, emotion rising inside me.

His thumb swiped across my lower lip. “No, he doesn’t.”

I flung myself into his chest, burying my face to smile. Of all people, Win’s approval meant the most. And now we had it.

My stomach grumbled, and Max patted my bare ass. I lifted my head, puckering my lips. After he pecked a soft kiss against them, his eyes caught on the bandage covering my stitches, making him frown.

“What?” I said, fingering the edges. “Does it look okay?”
