“Yes sir, Prez, we’re out of here.” Kaleb gives a salute like I’m an officer in the army.
Each of them makes their way over to me, kissing their baby and telling him goodbye. Ashlynn is last and Ryker has to pull her away, tears streaming down her face. I hate she’s upset, but they need this weekend away together, without a child with them.
When I hear the door click, I sigh in relief and begin to sing softly to my grandson. At this moment, I’m the happiest man alive.
Chapter nineteen
Melissa
“Are you sure he’ll even want to see me? Especially after what I said.” Jax takes hold of my chin, tilting it up so I’m looking him in the eyes. His lip quirks up, sending tingles racing through my body as his eyes twinkle.
“I’m positive. It’s time we put the past in the past and move forward, the three of us together.” I raise my eyebrow, which causes him to gaze at me with confusion before he chuckles. “Let me rephrase, the three of us moving forward, but with our relationships with you.”
“So there’s no chance of me seeing you and Earl in the heat of passion?” I try my hardest to keep a serious face, but I can’t keep from smiling.
Jax shakes his head at me as he makes a gagging noise. “No way in hell of that ever happening. We talked and right now we’re okay with watching each other with you, but we’re not ready for our dicks to be in the same vicinity at the same time. Now let's get out of this car, go to the door and ring the bell.”
My heart races and I can feel the knots in my stomach twisting tighter. I know Jax is convinced that Earl will be happy to seeme and forgive my moment of stupidity, but my mind is running through all the scenarios and overthinking every tiny detail. I should just believe what he’s telling me, especially after he and Earl talked.
Jax opens his door and I follow suit, slowly getting out. I pause by the truck, my feet feeling as if they’re stuck.
“Come on, baby. Time to face the biker boy. It’s going to be fine,” Jax's voice booms as he steps around the vehicle to my side, slipping his arm around me, guiding me to the porch.
It’s going to be okay. I need to have faith. I’ve wanted Earl for so many years and now it’s happening. All my dreams are coming true. Well, most of them. There’s still one I need to work on, but with both Jax and Earl’s support, I think I can do it.
I take each step at a snail's pace, even with Jax’s encouragement. I’ve been strong for so many years that this vulnerability is new to me. It’s a part of me I kept hidden away, never wanting it to rise to the surface again. Guess life had other plans.
“Take a breath, Mels, we don’t need you passing out on us.” Jax chuckles. “But I volunteer as tribute to give you mouth to mouth.”
How can I fight that, having Jax’s lips pressed firmly on mine as he breathes life back into my lungs? I’m hot as hell just thinking about it. I stop as we step onto the porch, turning my body so that my chest is flush with the front of him, raise up on my toes and kiss him. If I ever doubted that I love this man, I don’t any longer.
“Let’s do this.” His kiss and support is all I need to walk toward the door and press the doorbell. I wait, but nothing. Anticipation builds as I push the button again, listening to the chiming noise from the other side, before I hear heavy footfalls.
Earl! He’s coming.
The door opens and I don’t know what comes over me, but I leap into him, my arms going around his neck and kiss him. He seems stunned at first, but slowly his lips part, allowing my tongue to enter as it glides across his. A moan escapes me and I want more. I want Earl. My body yearns to have him inside of me as I scream his name.
“I’m so sorry. I should’ve never said that to you. Please forgive me,” I sob as we break our kiss.
“I know you said it in anger, and I understand why. Shit. How can I judge you when I made the same mistake? There’s no need to forgive you.” His eyes drift past mine, locking on the man standing behind me. “Jax. Thank you,” Earl says three words I never thought I’d hear.
“Are you going to invite us in, or should I just take our woman back to my place and ravish her some more?” Jax asks as he steps closer to me, his hard cock flush with my backside.
Earl steps to the side, making space for us to enter. “Where’s the baby?” I ask, looking around.
“Sleepin’. I just put him down about fifteen minutes ago. He shouldn’t wake up for at least an hour.” Earl takes me by the hand, pulling me into his arms, both hands snaking around my waist and cupping my ass as he kisses me again.
Fuck me if it isn’t the hottest thing, knowing that Jax is watching. But just when I don’t think it can get any better, Earl releases his hold on me, spinning me around, right into Jax’s arms, who does the same fucking thing.
Am I really doing this? A forty-six-year-old woman entering into a menage relationship? Is this even my life?
“We need to talk about something,” I mumble into Jax’s mouth, my words barely audible.
“Yeah, my grandson is upstairs. We ain't having no porn orgy down here.”
“Aww, and I was hoping to get a show,” Jax teases, and I catch Earl playfully punching Jax in the shoulder as I pull away.
“Let’s sit down,” I tell them both, then head to the living room. A house I know well from visiting Ash, the boys, and my godson.
