“There needs to be a better investigation, but we’ll ensure you’re protected,” Lincoln said quickly. “You have nothing to worry about.”

I looked from face to face, pondering their offer. “And us?”

“I don’t see any reason for things to change between us if that’s not what you want,” Lincoln told me as the other two nodded in agreement.

“But… what is it that won’t change?” I pressed, determined to put it in words. “What do we have?”

The men looked at one another, sinking back to consider the question.

“I suppose we have each other, don’t we?” Lincoln offered slowly. “We’re together?”

“Are you asking me?” I laughed nervously. “Or telling me?”

I glanced at Paxton and Kai. Kai nodded eagerly, on board with the announcement as Paxton pensively thought it over.

“We will continue to have each other’s backs,” Paxton agreed, leaning forward to stroke my face. “We’re all together. Permanently.”

My heart fluttered, and I gulped down the lump in my throat.

“So you’re offering me a real position in the company?” I confirmed.

“Yes. With a salary, benefits—” Kai started.

“Stock options,” Paxton concluded.

My chest tightened, and I nodded, happiness swelling inside me.

“Then I accept,” I mumbled as they encompassed me, each depositing a kiss on my head. “As long as I get to continue my life with all of you.”

“You can’t get rid of us that easily,” Paxton replied. “You’re one-of-a-kind, Mylee, and we’ve never been happier.”

My chest warmed with his sentiment.

“Good,” Lincoln said. “That settles it. Rest now. We’ll draw up the contracts and deal with changing the penthouse into your name.”

I could hardly believe this was real.

Am I dead? Did I just die, and this is heaven?

If it was, I must have done something really good in life. But each of their touches felt more real than anything that I had ever experienced before. I finally had something of my own—a whole harem of somethings. How did I get so lucky?

CHAPTER17

Lincoln

Mylee stayed in the hospital for another full day while we returned to the condo to prepare for her arrival. Kai took the first shift, staying with her while Paxton and I returned to the Gable Place to get affairs in order.

“Can you deal with things here?” I asked Paxton, an idea forming in my head as I grabbed my keys from the foyer table. “I’m going to the office.”

Paxton eyed me suspiciously, but he didn’t argue as I sent for Harrison and headed out. I spent the ride emailing and texting, arranging for Mylee’s formal employment contract to be drafted as I had Harrison stop in a familiar spot.

“Wait here,” I ordered the driver, my eyes still fixed on the screen of my phone.

There was so much to do before Mylee came home, to ensure that she was safe and secure, and that she never was threatened again.

“Hey!” The redhead looked up from her book, a wide smile on her face as I entered the Progressive Mistrals that morning. “What section are you going to buy out today?”

I paused in front of the desk and set my iPhone down, offering her a winning smile. “All of them,” I replied.
