“I know, man. Love you too.”
“No, I mean as more than a friend. We’ve been together a long time, and, well, I’ve had these feelings for years. I was always too scared to tell you. But I . . . it’s more than friendship.”
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
Effie tensed slightly and he knew she was awake.
Steele sat up and turned on a lamp. He gave Grady a once over. “You mean you’re attracted to me?”
Grady swallowed. “Uh, yeah. The thing is . . . I haven’t slept with any women on my own for the last few years because I didn’t want any of them. I wanted you. Until a certain Twinkletoes came into the club, that is. She’s my world. Will always come first. But I wanted you to know how I felt about you. I hope it won’t change things.” He climbed from the bed. He couldn’t stay here any longer.
“Thomas.”
He froze at the door.
“Come. Here.”
He spun and scowled at Steele. “I’m not your sub. You can’t order me around.” Steele was leaning back against the pillows, while Effie had sat up to watch them both. She had a tight hold on Steele’s hand.
But he seemed to be holding her hand back just as tight.
Steele grinned. It was slightly wild. Somewhat feral. “That’s why I didn’t think we would work. Not until we found our baby.” He wrapped an arm around her.
“What?” Grady asked.
“I knew you were attracted to me. I mean, it took me a while to notice it. But we’re both Doms, both like control. And I knew we’d tear each other apart if it was just us and that we’d end up miserable and alone.”
“Grady was worried you’d reject him,” Effie told Steele.
Steele gazed down at her, then up at Grady. “I’d never reject you. Fucking idiot.”
“Damon,” he growled, not liking the way he was talking to him.
Steele’s eyes suddenly twinkled with amusement. “Guess I knew it was inevitable. No way anyone could resist a bod like this for long.” He pointed to himself.
“Fuck me,” he muttered.
“Yeah? You want that right now?” Steele asked.
His heart raced. Hard.
“Because I thought we might start with a blow job and work our way up to that.”
“You’re gonna give me a blow job?” Grady challenged.
“I thought you’d give me one.”
“I’ll give you both blow jobs,” Effie offered.
They both turned to see her tugging at her earring.
“Baby girl, don’t do that. Everything is fine,” Steele soothed.
“I know. I know. It’s just very testosterone-ish in here. I thought I was doing the right thing, giving Grady advice. But maybe the two of you won’t work.”
“We work just fine with you,” Grady said. “So maybe we start there.”
Her eyes lit up. “Yeah?”
