Adria nodded.
Swallowing, Seth said, “I just want to keep doing what we are doing. Maybe talking a little more. But being together, sharing each other.”
“And do you mind me being with Bryson or Kaydon without you?” Adria asked.
Seth shook his head. “No, as long as I’m included sometimes. Do you mind if I’m with them without you?”
Adria seemed surprised by the question. “No, of course not.”
Bryson watched as she started to pace around the room again. Her hands waving at her sides, like she was having a silent argument with herself. Her lips moved, and her brows knitted together as she navigated around the room, whispering to herself. Bryson thought about the time he saw her in her window. When he had gone for a run to try to get her out of his head.
“What about sharing with other people? People we haven’t met yet?” she said, stopping suddenly mid step.
Bryson saw a grin break out on Kaydon’s face.
“Why? Want to keep us all to yourself?” Kaydon said.
“Are you going to keep training submissives?” Seth asked.
Bryson watched her, that familiar feeling of anger flaring like it had on the plane. Except this time, he was able to see it for what it was.
Jealousy.
“We can be exclusive, Dri,” Bryson said, and she turned. “Or we can talk about things as they come up.”
Kaydon added, “Nothing has to be a hard stop. We talk. And we decide, it doesn’t have to be complicated.”
Adria hesitated. “I’m not sure I’m ready to share you three. But I don’t know what that means for my job either.”
Kaydon grabbed her hand. “Let’s just be us for right now and handle everything on a case-by-case basis.”
Adria gave Kaydon a soft kiss before pulling away. “You make it sound so easy.”
Bryson could tell she didn’t share Kaydon’s go-with-the-flow sentiment.
“And I—” she said and stopped, fidgeting with her hands.
Bryson found himself smiling behind her.
She was nervous;theymade her nervous.
“I know relationships are about give and take,” she said.
“That’s what I hear,” Kaydon said, giving her a wide smile.
“I’m being serious,” she snapped. “I’ll try, okay, but I am used to being in charge. That’s not going to just go away because we decided to give this a try.”
“You’re in charge, sweetness,” Bryson said, wrapping his arms around her and nipping at her ear. “I thought we already established that last time. But in case there is any question.”
He released her and moved to stand at the foot of the bed. Allowing his knees to bend, he felt the hard tile beneath them as he knelt at her feet. He could feel Kaydon and Seth take their place beside him.
Bryson desperately wanted to see her, but he kept his eyes on the floor. The sexual desire to have her with his brothers was so strong, he felt like he might come apart if he looked at her.
Adria’s bare feet came into view in front of them.
“The three of you want to play?”
“Yes, Mistress,” all three of them said in unison.
