“I’m okay. I just wish the feds would leave.”

“Eh, they will. I think they’re getting the message that no one wants them here and they’re not going to trick anyone into saying something they might want to hear but isn’t the truth.”

“They tried, yeah.”

Prince smiled sweetly at him. “You look better.”

“I feel better. I guess I needed the sleep.”

Indio sat quietly as he sipped his coffee, and Sel looked to him next. “You feel better too?”

“Yeah, but I was already good. If anyone thinks killing that asshole hurt my feelings, they’d be very wrong.”

“Not to mention, you saved Sel,” Prince said, his eyes narrowing at Indio. The three of them simply stared at him, unused to Prince being so forward.

“Yeah, sure,” Indio finally got out. “I’m glad about that.”

Dex chuckled and got an elbow in the ribs for it. “It’s not funny, Dex.”

“No, it’s not, baby.”

Vic brought him his plate of food and kissed Sel on the cheek. “You eat. You’re too skinny.”

Indio was the one getting the elbow in the ribs for laughing that time.

Indio was sent out to patrol that afternoon, so it was the perfect time for the guys to get together and have Sel all to themselves, they said. Binx was marinating chicken breasts and Vic was off to her other job as sheriff, letting them know the federal agents should wrap up their investigation quickly. “I’m tired of those ugly long faces in my station.”

They were all gathered in the dining hall and Binx slid a piece of paper over to him. “How’s this? We’ve all added to it. Prince said he’d type it up and print it, if you okay it.”

Sel looked at the top of the paper to see a scribbled, Submissive Contract, and he immediately felt his face heating. “God, it’s so weird seeing it written.”

“I know,” Binx agreed, but confessed, “I was so stupid when I first started in this lifestyle. I told people I didn’t have a safeword. I thought I was too tough and kinky to need one.”

“Binx,” Ruben gasped. “That’s so bad!”

“Oh, I know, and I got taught real fast that didn’t fly. Lonnie and Travis took me in when I was young and stupid. I frustrated them to no end.”

“Where the hell have they been?” Sel asked.

“Lonnie has friends in the FBI from when he was chasing another bad guy. He’s been on the phone with them, trying to see if they can get these here off our backs.”

Dex said, “Travis told me they were about to head home. He said you were too.”

Binx nodded and confessed, “We are. That’s why I want to get this contract finished. I can’t leave on a cliffhanger.”

“Cliffhanger?” Sel asked.

“Yeah! Will you or won’t you and Indio finally stop your stubbornness and get together officially?”

He laughed with the others. “I’m on the same cliffhanger.”

Mal said, “I told you, these guys don’t come around fast, but when they do, it’s with their whole hearts.”

“I know. I still feel like he’s always going to hold back.”

Ruben gently slapped his fingers over the paper. “Give him this.”

“When it’s typed and nicer,” Binx complained. “You can’t even read Mal’s handwriting.” He said, then softened once he saw Mal’s playful frown. “I love you, but you’re never going to get paid for your calligraphy.”
