“Well we’ve talked about it, and we want it too.”

They sat at the edge of their seats now, hanging on my every word. It made my heart melt to think they were actually nervous about this. Even more so than me.

“Weloveyou, Quinn,” said Joshua. “You’re a part of us now. Shit, maybe you always have been. But this thing we have, that we’ve been doing together… we’re not willing to let it go. And that child that’s growing inside you, it belongs toallof us. It needs a mother just as much as it needs three fathers. We can see that now.”

I was glad he could see, because I couldn’t see anything anymore. There were too many tears filling my eyes.

“And we’re betting there’s no better mother in the universe thanyou.”

A pair of arms went around me from either side. I was bawling. Sniffling. Laughing and crying, as my heart soared through a million different emotions.

And for once, all of them were good ones.

“We’ve committed to missions, to country, to each other,” Cole went on. “And now we’re committing to you. It wasn’t what we expected. It certainly wasn’t something we planned on. But you’re the most incredible woman any of us could ask for. The fact that we’ve been sharing you still blows our mind, but there’s one thing we know beyond a shadow of a doubt…”

Gentle fingers tilted my face upward where his ice-blue eyes burned from within.

“The three of us will always be happy, if we can have you forever.”

I was gushing. Giddy. Utterly blown away. Even so, my mind screamed at me to rationalize what was happening. I had to make certain it was real.

“Are you sure?” I finally sniffed, cursing myself even as I asked the question. “I—I mean, youonlywant me? Because—”

“Yes,” affirmed Evan.

“Hellyes,” Joshua jumped in. “Why?”

“Because there’s three of you,” I reasoned. “You have three sets of needs, three sets of desires. Three sets of dreams, and—”

“So?”

I blinked. “So if we do this, there’s only one of me.”

“One of you, huh?” Joshua smirked and bumped my shoulder. “You’ve been doing pretty well so far.”

I shifted back into the couch, and they sat back with me. I felt loved, cherished, honored. Thrilled beyond words; that what we’d built so crazily and haphazardly could actually continue.

Most of all, I found myself relieved that once I had their baby, it didn’t have to end.

Your baby.

They were just two words. Two little words that hit me like a ton of bricks.

Yours… and theirs too.

It seemed impossible, giving myself to three men at once. And even more impossible to ask them to commit to me.

Yet that’s exactly what I wanted, and exactly what they’d done.

“Look, we know this isn’t an ordinary situation,” Evan said gently. “But we’re not ordinary men. We don’t have an ordinary life.”

“Ineverwanted an ordinary life,” Joshua grinned.

“And you’re not an ordinary woman,” Evan went on. “Quinn, you’re extraordinary. We saw it from the very beginning. You’re like us. Youareus.”

Evan and Joshua were on either side of me now. Cole knelt before me and took my hand.

“We’re asking you tobewith us,” he said. “Forever, if that’s what you want. But only if—”
