Chapter 29
TWENTY-NINE
Rory
We drive back to our apartment in a giddy haze.
I have my hand on Sophie’s thigh as does Bear.
Our girl, she’s willing to give us a go.
Now that we’ve allowed ourselves to show our true feelings, we don’t ever want to not be touching her.
Knowing Mack and Tye will be up, waiting, I cannot wait to see their faces when Sophie walks in with us.
I feel a weight that I have been carrying around with me ease.
The worry and tension over why and how this plan could blow up in our faces has evaporated from my body as I turn my thoughts to our future, something I haven’t allowed myself to consider up until now.
We pull up outside our building, excited to get to share it with her now as her potential new home rather than just as the location of her last two jobs.
Bear climbs out first and then helps Sophie out of the car.
I follow and wave off the driver as we enter our building and call up the lift to the top floor.
I can’t help but slip my hand into Sophie’s as we leave the elevator and make our way along the corridor to our door.
Bear pulls out his keys and lets us in. We walk quietly to the end of the hallway until we come out into the main kitchen and lounge room where Mack and Tye sit at the dining table, each with a beer in hand.
It is satisfying to see their faces as their eyes grow wider when they see Sophie nestled between us.
Tye practically shoots from his chair, almost knocking his beer careening to the floor before Mack catches it and scowls.
Tye walks up to us, a look of pride on his face as he shakes Bear’s hand, walks into Sophie to kiss her lips with a whispered, “Welcome, Gorgeous,” and then he takes my hand to shake too.
Mack isn’t far behind him, it feels like we are receiving a hero’s welcome, we’ve been to war and safely rescued the princess.
When Mack has shaken our hands and made sure in no uncertain terms that Sophie is home, Tye goes to the fridge and hands out beers.
Sophie good naturedly accepts one too. I want to lead her to the sofa to relax, or even better to my bedroom.
But I know she’ll have more questions so it’s better we can all see each other at the table.
Mack pulls out a seat for her and then we all settle down around the table.
Mack holds out his beer for us all to tap in the middle, “To new beginnings,” and we all echo his words, Sophie too.
Then Mack follows up with, “Well that’s if you’ll have us all Sophie?
” he asks, his question sounding less confident than his toast.
“I absolutely will have you all. I’m confused how this can be happening, but there is not a chance I can say no when I spent the night with you and Tye and then had the most amazing dessert with these two deviants,” she says laughing and pointing to me and Bear.
“Oh yeah, what did you have for dessert?” asks Tye, raising his eyebrows.
“Chocolate Mousse,” Sophie supplies sweetly. “It’s my favourite.” Tye narrows his eyes trying to understand where she is going with that comment.
I take pity on him and reply, “She likes her chocolate mousse in her pussy and on my cock, who knew?”
Tye’s mouth drops open and Mack smirks at his younger brother.
“Don’t look so surprised, you’ve been fucking our girl in the night when she’s asleep, you creeper,” I say, punching his shoulder good naturedly.
“Hold up, that’s rich coming from the man who enjoys zapping her with electricity.”
“Ouch,” laughs Sophie, enjoying the banter.
“Ok ok children, we all have our kinks, there is no kink shaming here, especially when Sophie lets us all play out our own on her body,” Mack says to us as Sophie looks on.
She takes a sip of her beer and looks around the table, drinking us in.
We make an unusual group that’s for sure.
I’m not sure exactly what Sophie sees in us but I’m not here to argue.
None of us are bad looking, we just look like an unlikely boyband, especially sitting around this table right now.
“Forgive me for asking,” Sophie says, drawing every set of eyes around the table to look back at her. “Are you sure you all want to be with me? To share me? I haven’t got that detail wrong somewhere have I?”
Chuckling, Mack replies, “That is correct, you do not have that wrong. We bought this apartment with you in mind. We want to keep you, each of us. And we promise to take care of you and share you equally.”
“How will you share me equally?”
“Well, as I’m sure Rory and Bear have mentioned, Rory travels most of the year.
Bear works nights over the weekend and sometimes midweek.
Tye, as you know, has big projects and I start early and work evenings for PT sessions and am launching .
That is four very busy men. But I promise you, there will always be one of us around.
Therefore none of us are prepared to be jealous because hardly any of us are around at the same time.
” Sophie purses her lips and seems to consider his answer.
“How do you feel about us all sharing you?” asks Tye cautiously.
“I feel like I just won the fricking lottery is how I feel,” replies Sophie quickly.
“The whole reason I broke up with my ex-boyfriend was because I didn’t want to settle.
Little did I know, I was manifesting four of my favourite men in my life to come together, buy an apartment and put together some extravagant plan to win me over.
Honestly, I feel like I’ve been missing out and I should have thought of this myself.
” That has us all laughing. This is why we all adore her.
Who else would be open to this kind of relationship?
Mack
Sophie is such a good sport. I’m dazzled by her and know every single man sitting at this table is too.
I don’t feel threatened, I feel exhilarated that our plan worked out.
This is the best possible outcome I could have dreamed of.
I didn’t consider Tye, but after last night, I realise now, he should have always been included in the plan.
“What about work, would that bother you if I kept my job?” asks Sophie cautiously.
“Absolutely not,” I reply as all the guys shake their heads and confirm that is not what any of us want.
“We have always shared you with the Clarendon, we are going to share you between us, sharing you has become second nature to us, we have no business changing that,” I say and hope my words ensure she knows we mean it.
“It’ll be weird taking jobs and having my most favourite people at home where I know I’ll want to be.
Would it be ok if I settle in with you guys before I sign up for any more jobs?
I think I need to get used to our living arrangements before I weigh up how many jobs and the types of jobs I want to continue.
Seeing all four of you changes things, I don’t know how I’ll feel so I think I’d prefer to just work in the Cafe in the mornings and have a little break from being a playmate,” Sophie seems to be thinking out loud.
“You do what’s best for you,” says Bear, who hasn’t said a great deal since he’s been home as he sits back in his chair, comfortable in his own skin.
I don’t mind his quiet calm. He complements the four of us as he slips into the background despite the size of the guy.
I know he has quiet passions underneath the many layers he hides behind.
“What would be expected of me?” asks Sophie.
“Nothing, Baby,” I say. “Each of us is grateful for you being here. Share as much or as little as you like as you get to know each of us better. Give as much or as little as you settle in. We have no expectations.”
“Mack, I thought we’d agreed to take it in turns to fuck Sophie every night?” Tye feigns mock outrage. Sophie looks on between us, grinning. “You know we do want to, Sophie,” he shrugs cheekily.
“Don’t listen to Tye, we may want to do all manner of things to you and with you, but that’s only fun if you’re up for it too.
I did not agree to that and you know Tye thinks he’s the self-proclaimed joker in this home.
Sadly that is one thing everyone else has to get used to because I’ve had to deal with it my whole life,” I say giving Tye a look that says ‘shut the fuck up before you ruin what we have got going so far.’ Sophie is smiling broadly, she knows Tye, I know they get on, she gets his humour, I just hope Flynn and Rory are as forgiving.
“It’s ok, I’m game for whatever you have planned for me,” she winks back at Tye and I swear I see Rory’s shoulders lower slightly.
“I have another question, sorry, I have so many. So last night I went to bed with you two,” Sophie looks between me and Tye.
“And tonight I went out with Flynn and Rory. Is everyone open to sharing together or that’s not your thing or…
? What is everyone’s situation?” she asks and it’s a good question.
I’ve never shared until last night. I suspect that’s the same as Bear and Rory.
“I’m down for anything,” confirms Tye, as if we hadn’t all already guessed that.
“Nothing about this evening made me want to stop. Consider me open-minded,” confirms Rory.
“I’ll take all of you, Sophie, in whatever way I can get,” confirms Bear and then Sophie’s eyes are on me.
“Fuck Baby, I cannot wait to share you and direct you with these guys. It’s going to be a whole new game for us to play,” and I mean every single word.
I knew I was into directing Sophie, but the more I did it, the more I realised I needed more.
I’m not into other men, but I am into other men with my woman.
Tye
