And I was his.
After cleaning us off, Nate dug into one of the bags in the back for a new pair of shorts for me, blushing when he threw the ripped ones away. It was so sweet, it made me laugh. When my voice came out hoarse from all the ways he’d made me his, he laughed too, and the world felt brighter for it.
“Where to now? Back home?” I asked when I was dressed.
I tried to move to the other side of the car, but Nate hauled me back to the seat beside him with a hand on my hip. “You stay here.”
Well, okay then. I grinned at him, wrapping my fingers around his and sinking into his chest when he threw his arm around me.
“We gotta go back to town,” Dominic said as he hopped in and started the car, Grey following soon after. “Nate’s appointment is in an hour.”
“My appointment,” Nate said slowly, glaring at me with suspicion.
I lifted my hands in surrender. “I didn’t even know we were going out today.”
Dominic laughed at the obvious skepticism. “I didn’t know who’d win, so I let them know it could be either of us when I called to make the appointment.”
Nate rolled his eyes before relaxing back in his seat, giving my hip a light slap. “Come here.”
My smile grew, and I leaned against his chest, happy to snuggle while we had time. As soon as the car started moving, the orgasms caught up to me, and I yawned wide enough to crack my jaw.
“Sleep, angel. We’ve got you.” Nate’s soft voice was the last thing I heard before I dozed off.
The nap was short-lived but so needed, especially when Nate woke me up with a searing kiss.
When we got inside the local shop, he seemed happy with the flash sheets and workbooks of all the artists, even if he didn’t know which one was his. When the artist called him back, I went with.
“I’ll hold your hand the whole time if you want,” I promised.
He grinned and kissed me lightly. “I’ll be fine, Mari.”
In fact, he didn’t need me at all.
The instant he saw the tattoo, while I was distracted looking somewhere else, he kicked me out of the room, forcing me into the lobby of the shop Dominic had closed down for us. “No peeking, angel.”
Sitting idly wasn’t my style, but I tried. It got harder when Greyson and Dominic decided they wanted tattoos too.
I wanted to be annoyed with waiting so fucking long, but I was riding the high of the day. Being together, coming so hard I nearly blacked out, connecting with my men. Hard to be irritated after a day like that.
When the buzzing stopped and they finally called me over, I practically skipped to the back of the shop.
The second I got a look at the tattoo, I knew why I’d pushed so hard for Nate to get it. I had no doubt Dominic had chosen it for me.
I hadn’t realized Dominic and Grey were getting matching ones, though.
It took effort to swallow back the tears that sprang up at the sight of three identical black-and-gray crowns on their chests, right over their hearts. It was their own way of committing to me, to our little family, and I adored them for it.
“I love them,” I said quietly, my voice thick with tears and all the happiness I couldn’t quite contain. I huffed a laugh as Greyson hauled me into a hug, pressing kisses against my head.
“We love you, reina.”
Dominic smiled softly at me before holding out a hand to Nate. “Consider this your official induction into the fan club, Black. Welcome home.”
Nate stared at him, eyes heavy with the same feelings that ran through me before he shook that hand and smiled. “So glad to be here.”
