I gripped JJ’s hips to pull him forward so he could straddle my lap. Gently, I pressed a kiss to his jaw. I didn’t know where else he was hit and didn’t want to cause him more pain. “You can have me. I’m right here. You can have Dex if you want him back. Easy.” I didn’t know about Dexen for certain, but him kissing JJ and telling him the truth, that meant something.
JJ smiled. “You don’t think you’re man enough for me? You have to suggest adding a third?”
“I’m more than capable of sating your needs. If you desire to have more hands on you, more dicks to play with, another heart beating in our vicinity, the door is open. Only to him.”
His fingers carded through my hair. “You care about him.”
“As do you.”
“I don’t want to.”
“Our hearts rarely care what we want. They simply know where we belong.”
“I’m not sure if I can trust him.” He rested his forehead to mine.
“I’m not saying he has to be part of this. If you want it to be just us, I’m good with that. But I can tell how much it tore you up having to confront him. And you kissed him. That wasn’t done lightly.”
“Maybe it was the heat of the moment.”
“Or maybe you stopped thinking for once and reacted.”
“Goddammit, Greer.”
Finally, fucking finally, he kissed me. I brushed my tongue over his lips, loving how he readily opened for me. He tasted of mint and something else. I wondered if it was whatever was on Dexen’s tongue when they shared a kiss.
I held JJ tighter, devoured him while his hands gripped the sides of my neck. It wasn’t that I wanted one more than the other. It was different with each of them. One no less. One no more. I couldn’t deny I liked the idea of having them both. While JJ seemed more receptive to a relationship, Dexen would be another story. He had cut me off. I was certain it had something to do with JJ now that I knew more of the background between them.
Dexen wasn’t a selfish man who only took and never gave. I knew intimately what he felt like and how much he cared, even if he didn’t want to admit to it out loud.
JJ softened the kiss, trailing his lips over mine to my cheek and the corner of my eye. “You don’t care that I kissed him?”
I shook my head. “Maybe I should, but I don’t. Had it been anyone else, I would. Besides, we haven’t said who we are to each other.”
“I want to be with you.”
“Me too.”
“And maybe Dex.”
I shrugged. “That’s for him to decide.”
“How are we going to do this?”
“I love a good plan, but it won’t work when it comes to Dex. We have to show him what’s on the table and let him decide if he wants us or not.”
“He destroyed me, Greer. He lied to me. He broke my fucking heart.”
“I know. It wasn’t easy on either of you. We’re going to need to talk at some point, the three of us. The only way to do this is with pure honesty. I can’t say Dex or I won’t kill for you or for each other, but I can promise I won’t needlessly murder anyone. I haven’t killed a soul my whole life. The only way I’d do it now is to save someone I care about.”
“I don’t want a repeat.”
“And I want more than sex.”
“You have that. Even if Dex wants no part of us, you’re more than that to me.”
A slow grin worked its way over my lips. “Yeah?”
“Yeah.”
