“Look at this picture,” he said, showing them. “It’s another family picture, but it looks to be a few years older. The child is about four here.”

In the picture, it was just the two men and the child. Missing was the younger woman who had been playing wife number two.

“Where is Catherine?” Finn asked. “The sister-in-law-child-bride?”

That was a good question.

She wasn’t there.

“Was she dead?” Finn asked. “You know how it was back then. Germy.”

Unfortunately, they didn’t have an answer for that, but they would be able to find one.

With research.

“I didn’t find a death date for Catherine, but I wasn’t exactly looking for one either. I guess we’ll have to go back to the drawing board on that one.”

Graham was staring at the painting.

“What do you see?” Michael asked him.

He pointed.

“This painting looks to be painted out by the waterfall on the property.”

Finn agreed.

“I took Gabby there and we skinny dipped in that water not long ago. It’s just past the pasture and into the trees.”

She giggled and pulled out her phone. On it, was a picture of the man coming up out of the water—his ass out. Yeah, she still had it as her wallpaper on her phone because who the hell wouldn’t?

Gryphen laughed.

“Well, now, today, I’ve seen Michael sharing a full frontal, Graham’s ass, and Finn’s now too. I think that covers all the men here.”

Ian stared at him.

“Is there a reason, fiancé, that you’re seeing naked men that aren’t me?”

He kissed him on the nose.

“Don’t be shrewish, my love. Michael and I work out together, and we shower after the gym in a locker room. Finn because he’s in the picture, and Graham…well, we got quite the show in the Master’s Suite. Someone was taking a ride on a yank like no one’s business.”

Graham sputtered.

“Seriously? Have you lost your mind?”

It made Gryphen laugh.

How could it not?

“Turnabout is fair play, Graham,” he said. “I warned you about that when we were here before.”

He just rolled his eyes.

Honestly, Graham was thinking about‘riding the yank’more than anything else. In fact, he wished he was at that very moment.

That had been the plan until they’d been disturbed. Now, he was curious if he’d get another chance—whatever all of this was going on between him and D’Artangnan.
