Epilogue
Xavier felt his exhaustion fade away as he turned into the driveway that led to home.
His home. Their home.
Never in a million years had he thought he would end up in this sort of relationship. With his best friend.
And his best friend’s boyfriend.
He snickered. That sounded like it belonged in one of those romance novels that Brick liked reading to Juliet before she had a nap. Of course, then he usually ended up having to eat her out because she’d get so worked up that she couldn’t sleep.
Xavier was pretty sure Brick did that on purpose.
He pulled into the garage and got out to stretch. It had been a long few days. But he was off for a few days now, and he intended to spend them all with his girl. Brick was due to leave for a job tomorrow for JSI. He’d be gone for about a fortnight, and Xavier knew Juliet was feeling anxious about it.
So it shouldn’t have surprised him to walk into the living room and find her on her knees in front of Brick, who was naked from the waist down.
“You spoil her,” he said, while Brick ran his fingers through her hair. He had the news on the TV and was scrolling through his phone with his free hand.
“Like you can talk,” Brick countered.
It had taken some getting used to, the three of them living together. They were different personalities. Xavier liked everything in its place. He tended to be more reserved in some ways and more open in others. Brick was blunt, but found it hard to talk about anything that had to do with his feelings.
But they were making it work. Because there was no other option. They both wanted Juliet more than they wanted to breathe.
For her, Xavier would do anything. Because there was no living without her.
Juliet turned at his voice with a smile. “Papa!”
“Hey, Twink,” he said to her, sitting on his favorite recliner. It was pretty much the only thing he’d brought from his house and didn’t really go with her furniture, but Juliet didn’t seem to care.
He kept his gaze on her face, trying to avoid looking at Brick’s cock.
Yep, there were definitely weird things about this situation. But other things that were hugely rewarding.
“Come here.” He crooked a finger at her. She stood, and he took in her outfit with approval. She was wearing long blue and white striped socks and a loose, pale blue dress that ended just below her ass. In fact, he was willing to bet if she bent over that he would be able to see her panties.
Actually, why not look?
He held up his hand for her to stop. She came to a stop and stared at him in confusion.
“Turn around and bend over,” he commanded.
Red filled her cheeks, and she huffed out a sigh.
“Now,” he told her. “Or do you need to go over my lap for a bottom warming first?”
“Yes, I want to have a spanking first,” she said sarcastically.
“All right. Over you come.” He held out his hand.”
“I was joking,” she said in a squeaky voice.
“You were? I didn’t get the joke, and I have an excellent sense of humor. Don’t I, Brick?”
“You do?” Brick retorted with a grin.
Xavier glared at him. “Why haven’t I smothered you in your sleep yet?” When they were all home, they usually slept together. Neither one of them wanted to sleep on their own away from their girl if they could help it.
