I would never understand Daddies, but as he picked up our boy, cradling him in his arms, I quickly eased Lorne’s pants and underwear off so he wouldn’t be trapped. “I have a blanket in the living room.”

“Beds are for cuddles.” Lorne sounded like a king who thought his subjects were stupid, but it made Monroe grin.

“How did we not know this?” Shaking his head, Monroe lifted one eyebrow at me questioningly as he started heading out of the room.

Shrugging, I didn’t see a point in keeping them out of my bedroom. “That’s fine.”

“It’s more than fine. I’m amazing.” Lorne wasn’t teasing in the slightest based on the rolling his eyes tone. “You just forgot.”

“Spankings do that sometimes.” Monroe kissed the drama queen’s head as I quickly wiped up the cum and followed them to my room.

Monroe was stretched out on my bed like he owned the place and had Lorne cuddled in his lap under the blanket that had been at the bottom of my bed. “Here he is. I told you Carrick wouldn’t be long.”

Lorne’s huff, still with his eyes closed, made me chuckle. “Cum is sticky, silly boy, and I didn’t want your toys to get dirty.”

Pouting a bit, Lorne seemed to consider the answer. “I guess taking care of my stuff is very important, but I have to be cuddled now.”

Brat.

“Of course you do.” Monroe was eating it up and glared at me when I didn’t move to the bed quickly enough. “You’re going to get cuddles and kisses and we’re going to take good care of you.”

Monroe’s tone was sweet but the way he narrowed his eyes at me said there would be consequences if I didn’t get my ass in gear and give our boy the cuddles he was demanding.

Mates were fascinating creatures…and pains in the ass…but they were my mates, so I climbed into bed.

Chapter 10

Monroe

I couldn’t decide if letting them talk me into the scene made me a good Daddy or a bad one, but I had two pleased mates…one of which was very cuddly under the blanket he’d claimed as his.

“You have to make sure I have soft blankets at your house too, Daddy.” Rubbing his cheek between the blanket he had pressed up to his face and my chest on the other side, Lorne sighed as Carrick finally smiled. “Having three houses is going to be tough, but I can do it.”

He was claiming all three?

Carrick sighed, looking at it from another point of view. “He’s going to lose things at all three houses.”

Yep.

And my shop too.

“We’ll do our best to keep track of things and you’ve got the spell ideas.” Several spell ideas. Some of which were more interesting than others.

Carrick’s smirk said he was thinking something along the same lines. “We can come up with some very creative ideas.”

Lorne must’ve heard the wickedness in Carrick’s voice because he sighed again. “I’m going to be tortured left and right, but if you make me achy or horny or hard when I’m hanging out with the guys, I’m going to tattle on you.”

I thought that was fair warning and oddly reasonable, but Carrick’s nod was slow. “Yes, I can see where you’re coming from on that.”

Lorne giggled, wiggling his feet on Carrick’s lap and not feeling bad about driving his Master crazy. “Thank you, Sir.”

His cheekiness was tempered by a yawn, though. “You made me sleepy. I wasn’t tired before.”

“You’ve had a long day.” And yawns probably meant he needed more cuddling, so I shifted him around and set him between the two of us.

When he was stretched out down the bed, we both scooted lower and sandwiched him between us, both of us propped up on our elbows. Carrick seemed to like the new position because his expression softened and he kissed Lorne’s head. “You met your mates and had a date and got spanked. I say you’ve got good reasons to be tired.”

Lorne’s body took that as permission to yawn again and it took him a second to nod. “Yes, and I took a tour of your house and we found my phone. I’m amazing.”

And confident.

“You are.” Kissing his head, I wrapped myself around his back and tucked him tighter between us.

“But you…” Lorne fought off the yawn that time. “You’re both amazing too. You got along and we talked and you even made me come together. I’m very proud of you. Soon you’ll be kissing and everything.”

He seemed very confident about that too.

I wasn’t sure what to say, but Carrick didn’t have that problem. He chuckled and gave Lorne another peck. “One thing at a time.”

Lorne huffed but didn’t push the issue, mostly because he seemed to be falling asleep. “I…yes…”

He let out a deep breath and nodded to himself and then was out.

Hmm.

Looking over at Carrick, I raised one eyebrow. “Are we letting him have a nap and taking him home or keeping him? This is your house. I don’t want to make decisions or impose, but—”
