69. SEVERIDE

It was all a fucking disaster.I stared down at the burnt meat in dismay. Running a hand through my hair, I glanced at the recipe and tried to figure out where I had gone wrong. I’d followed every single instruction to the last detail.The meat had burned, the rice was still uncooked, and something was seriously wrong with the vegetables, although I couldn’t even fucking figure out why.“I can smell it from the gate,” Kieran muttered as he entered the kitchen.I threw a glare his way before I spun around to make sure that I had switched off the oven. When I turned back around, Kieran was frowning down at the pot that the vegetables were in. Thankfully, he didn’t comment on it.“Where’s Albany?” I asked him.“Steven and Thomas took her to the animal shelter. I told them to text when they’re on their way back.” Crossing his arms, Kieran leaned back against the counter next to me, eyes darting over my face. “What happened? You’re not a bad cook.”“It’s your fault,” I accused him.His eye

70. ALBANY

How could Kieran do that to me? It couldn’t be because of payback for the vibrating underwear, because I hadn’t even brought him any. The card that came with the box had said that the lingerie set came from Kieran, but he wasn’t the one who had the remote to the vibrating panties.How had I missed that part? They looked like ordinary panties. I knew I should have inspected them before I wore them. But what was done was done, and there was nothing to change about it now. I had managed to suffer through half an hour of playing a boring board game.And then I suffered through the rest of the night without an orgasm. He had something special planned or so he claimed. No orgasms until then.It didn’t help the fact that I woke up from the most erotic dream I had ever had, which included Kieran and Severide getting it on. Waking up, soaking wet, and pulsing with need was not a great way to start the morning.But it improved seconds later when my bedroom door opened and Severide snuck insid

71. ALBANY

A gift was waiting for me on the counter when I turned around with a fresh cup of coffee.Swallowing, I glanced around, searching for the person who had placed it there without me hearing. There was nobody within sight. A smile slipped onto my face as I placed the cup down and pulled the present closer.I hesitated a few seconds before I picked it up and tested the weight. Placing it down again, I ripped the wrapping paper and threw it aside. Pulling the top of the box off, I pushed the tissue paper aside and gasped at what I found inside.Colour flooded my cheeks as I inspected the black bikini. Shaking my head, I picked up the envelope that was under it and carefully opened it. There was an invitation inside.To Albany WolfeYou are kindly invited to join Kieran Wolfe for dinner tonight. Time: 20:00Place: The poolside. Dress code: The contents of this box and nothing else. Looking forward to dining with you, my wife. Dinner next to the pool. It was hot enough to even go for a

72. KIERAN

I raised my hand but froze as doubt flooded my mind. The only thing I had planned was to talk to Severide about what Albany wanted. We were doing all this for her anyway, which was the only thing I had to go on.But I hadn’t even considered the fact that he might not agree to this.Shaking my head, I opened the door and entered the room without knocking. I came to a shocked halt when my eyes locked on him.Severide’s cheeks flooded with colour as he reached for the sheets. I smirked at him and kicked the door closed behind me, and leaned back against it.“We’ve seen each other naked before,” I muttered.“Get out,” he hissed, ignoring my comment.I raised an eyebrow at him. “I’m sorry for interrupting. Were you close?”Severide sneered at me as he got up from the bed and, with the sheets clutched around his hips, stormed into the bathroom. The door slammed shut behind him so hard that the paintings on the wall vibrated from the force.Closing my eyes, I allowed my head to drop back aga

73. KIERAN

I raised my head and looked over my shoulder at her. “Then you better come closer.”She was next to us in an instant, taking a seat on the edge of the bed, her eyes trailing over Severide and then me. Albany swallowed, her lips parted like she wanted to say something, but she remained silent.I turned my focus back to Severide’s cock. Wrapping my hand around the base, I tilted it up and took him into my mouth. Inch by inch, I took him deeper until the head of his cock finally hit the back of my throat.“Shit, Kieran.” It was the only warning I had before he exploded.I swallowed his cum and then cleaned every drop from his cock before I straddled his thighs and gripped my cock. Albany leaned forward and rested her head on Severide’s stomach. I smiled at her when she opened her mouth.Shifting closer, I guided my cock towards her mouth. Her tongue darted out to collect the precum from my tip. Sucking in a breath, I pushed my hips forward, sinking deeper into the warmth of her mouth.Tw

74. EPILOGUE: ALBANY

The five of us were all seated around the huge Christmas tree Severide got for us. I smiled as I remembered our trip into town to buy our own decorations. All of us together, hopefully the first of many more trips to come. Of course, we had to endure hours of strange and sometimes disgusting looks from the other people who were shopping. And I wasn’t going to lie by saying that it might have gotten to me. For a few seconds, I had looked at things from their perspective, but then I looked at my men and I remembered how lucky I was to have them.They were my family, and I would want to trade them for anything. Sure, the ride had been rough. When one year passed after our breakup, I expected the worst. I feared that I might never see them again.While I was busy building my bakery, I had kept track of them as much as I could. I was tempted to go to Kieran’s gym opening, but I hadn’t been ready to face them, so I read about it in the newspaper and drooled over them in the photos, until I

75. BONUS CONTENT: THOMAS

FOUR YEARS AGO (CONTENT WARNING: TALK ABOUT PAST ABUSE AND ASSAULT)I rubbed my hands nervously on my pants. Sweat coated nearly every inch of my skin, making my clothes stick to me. I tugged on my shirt and shuffled nervously from foot to foot. My eyes locked on him as he moved around the room, studying everything from the furniture to the photos on the wall.“This is cool,” he muttered. “I wish my parents would let me do something like this in our basement.”“It took a lot of convincing,” I told him. “We might have conspired against them. I made sure to play my video games extra loud and then argued that if we had the space down here, they wouldn’t hear it.”He laughed. “Smart.”“Do you want to play?” I pointed towards the TV and beanbags.“Sure.”We got seated and started playing. A moment later, I found him next to me, our bodies brushing as we played. My heartbeat increased with every touch. It became increasingly difficult to concentrate, and I wasn’t sure if he was feeling the s

“The best time to get pregnant is when you’re ovulating and twenty-four hours after that…”I jerked upright and slammed the laptop shut when Thomas entered the kitchen. He hadn’t noticed me yet, which made me blow out a relieved breath. Walking over to the fridge, he opened it and stared at the contents for a few seconds, and then slammed the door shut again.“Are you going to make all of us spend quality time together?” he said, startling me.“Didn’t you have fun?”Thomas turned, hesitated a moment, and walked closer. “I love you and I love our family, but I don’t want you to force us to spend time together.”“Force you?” Steven entered, frowning at his brother. “It’s not like she held a gun to your head.”“Stay out of this.”Steven’s eyes narrowed.I tensed, waiting for a fight to break out. “I’m sorry,” I apologized before either of them could utter a word. “I just thought that it might be helpful. It just feels like you don’t talk as much as the others and I－”“We’re fine,” Thomas

“What does it say?”Albany missed her period. She snuck out of the house, thinking nobody would notice, and then returned home with a brown paper bag she had hidden under her clothes, or tried to.There was a soft click, and then the door slowly opened. My eyes darted over her face, searching for her excitement, but I only found unshed tears in her eyes. Without a word, she turned back around and walked over to the basin where she stared down at the pregnancy test.Stepping into the bathroom, I closed the door. My eyes dropped to the test.“Negative,” she croaked. “I thought I was. I missed my period.”Wrapping my arms around her waist, I hugged her to my body as I lowered my chin to her shoulder. Our eyes locked in the mirror.“We will make an appointment with the doctor,” I told her. “These tests aren’t always accurate.”“It doesn’t matter.”“It does.” My hold tightened. “Your period is only a day late, cupcake. Let’s wait for a few more days and then take another test.”“W-What if
