“It’s so soon,” I murmur. “I mean, it’s only been a week.”
“It’s been seven months,” Dominic retorts. “There’s been no one else. Not since we met you. It was supposed to be one night, but I couldn’t get you out of my mind. You marched into my life and took over.” An uncertain look flickers over his face. “If it’s too out there for you, being in a relationship with two people… “
His words sink in. There’s been no one else. He can’t get me out of his mind. I swallow hard. Do I trust in love? Do I believe in happy endings? “My friend Bailey is dating two guys.”
“She is?” Dominic’s head snaps up. “Look, I know it’ll be difficult. I’m not going to pretend otherwise. But we’re willing to try. You live in the city and Carter and I live here, but we’ll do everything we can to make it work. If you’re interested.”
If I’m interested.Of course I’m interested. Dominic and Carter are offering me the thing I want the most.
They’re telling me they want me, and yes, I trust them. I let hope fill my heart, and I finally allow myself to believe.
I want to jump up and down and dance around the room in glee.
“The long-distance isn’t a problem.” I wipe my palms on the robe. Somebody pinch me. “My office is closing. We’re going to be working remotely.”
“It’ll be easier to freelance if you don’t have to go into work, won’t it?” Dominic asks. “I’ll send clients your way. In fact, I talked to—”
“Dominic.” I stop his rush of words. “I’ll figure out my career on my own.” I finally allow the joy I’m feeling to show on my face. I grin at them like an idiot. “Forget work. I have a much more important question.”
“Which is?”
“What time is the dinner reservation?”
“Eight,” Dominic replies. “Why?”
I glance at my phone. It’s six. Yes! We have plenty of time. “Because I have a suggestion on how to pass the time.” I unbelt my robe and drop it to the floor. “I want more than sex too,” I tell them, still smiling like a crazy, happy fool. “A relationship sounds wonderful. But for right now…” My voice trails off suggestively.
Carter gets to his feet and moves toward me with predatory intent. “It was a very long weekend, Gabby,” he murmurs. “We should make up for lost time.”
