Chapter 46 Sawyer
Chapter forty-six
Sawyer
I’m drowning in disbelief as every cell in my body hums in bliss.
My mind is fuzzy, but in the best way. The world is brighter than it was even an hour ago. There’s a gentle ease in the center of my heart, where all the worry and anxiety used to live. Something clicked into place just now.
It worked.
It worked well.
They shared. No one died. Or tried to cause physical harm. Is that the litmus test for a successful polyamorous relationship? Probably not. But it’s a start.
I turn my head to the side, resting it on my forearm, soaking in the warmth of the fire.
Beside me, Ty is naked. We all are. His cheeks are flushed, dark brown eyes alert but content. Flickers from the fire dance across his features. Over his head, outside the window, snow still falls at a rapid pace.
Mercer has made his way over to Noah, the two of them on the couch talking quietly.
With a deep breath in and back out, I acknowledge that this might be the most peaceful, blissful moment of my life.
I’m with the men I love, safe, sated, and whole. I’m not alone. There’s a very good chance I won’t be alone ever again.
My heart is full here, in this place with these people.
And I’m filled with hope. No one was left out.
There was no need for a sacrifice or a devastating compromise.
For the first time in a very long time, I feel like the best, most complete version of myself.
It’s a gift and a blessing and a treasure I plan to cherish for the rest of my life.
