EPILOGUE

Shelby

6 Months Later

I t was hard to believe that it had been six months since the three of us had smartened up and really started our relationship. It had been nothing short of amazing. It was hard for me to remember a time when I wasn't head over heels in love with Thomas and Kenley. We had found a perfect harmony between our kink and vanilla lives. We occasionally came across judgmental people while out and about, but Kenley almost always kept her wits about her. Thomas and I just sat back and enjoyed the times she didn't. Our sassy sub had little patience for people's bullshit.

We waited a couple of months to tell their families. As predicted, Thomas' parents were over the moon. They went on and on about the joys of having two people to love versus one. Kenley's parents took a little while to come around but once they saw how in love we were, they were fully supportive. I hadn't spoken to my parents in seven years and saw no reason to start now. I had the family I'd chosen, with Thomas and Kenley and the rest of my Inhibition friends.

Thomas had invited us to his place for dinner, so I was rooting through my closet, looking for something pretty to wear. He'd be just as happy to see me in jeans and a sweater but sometimes, a girl just needed to dress up. I took out a maroon skirt and a soft cashmere cream-colored sweater and smiled. I pulled them on and looked in the full-length mirror in my closet.

Perfect.

Slipping on a pair of black strappy heels, I grabbed my purse and keys, heading out to my car. Kenley's car was already in the driveway when I got to Thomas' place. That woman was never late getting anywhere. I opened the front door and was greeted with the sight of the two of them kissing like there was no tomorrow. They hadn't even noticed me come in.

"Ahem… ahem! Got any of that for me?"

They broke apart, looking at me sheepishly, and walked over to me. Thomas kissed me first, his hand threaded through my hair, tilting my head up. He broke the kiss with a grin and let Kenley in. She kissed me until I was breathless and I smiled at them.

"Glad you're here, sweetheart," Thomas said. "Come on through to the living room. I need to talk to you both."

Kenley froze in place and I looked at him curiously. Grabbing her hand, we followed him in and sat on the couch.

"It's nothing bad, Kenley," he said gently. "You can stop worrying now."

"Me? I wasn't worrying."

"Bullshit," I laughed. "I had to practically drag your pretty little ass in here."

"I've been thinking a lot about our relationship and next steps," he said, looking a little nervous. "It's a pain in the ass having three houses and, at this point, it doesn't really make any sense to do that. We're always together. I was thinking… umm… maybe?—"

"Thomas, are you suggesting we live together?" I said, putting him out of his misery.

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm suggesting. I was wondering you two would move in with me."

"Well, it's about damn time," Kenley laughed. "I didn't think you were ever going to ask!"

"What? Why were you waiting for me to ask?!"

"You have the biggest house with the biggest property. It only makes sense that we would come here."

"She's got a point, Thomas. We're constantly having people from the club over here because it's the only one of our houses large enough to entertain so many of our friends. I'm in."

"So am I," Kenley said.

Thomas smiled widely and pulled us off the couch, gathering us in his arms. He kissed each of us gently and hugged us snugly against him.

"I'm so happy you both feel that way because there's one more thing," he said, pulling away from us.

He walked over to the end table and opened the drawer, taking out two long rectangular jewelry boxes. He handed one to each of us and we sat back on the couch with them in hand.

"Open them," he said nervously.

I opened mine and tears sprang to my eyes. It was a beautiful diamond tennis bracelet but in the middle, there was a white gold infinity symbol. I looked to Kenley whose eyes also shone bright with tears.

"I know this is a little out of the norm but I knew damn well you would never wear a collar, Shelby. I was hoping you would both accept these as a symbol of our relationship and what it means to me. I am yours but you are also mine. I will love you and protect you always. Our lives are a perfect blend of vanilla and kink and I want you to have something that represents both."

"It's beautiful," I said quietly, a tear falling down my cheek.

"Stunning," Kenley agreed. "Help me put it on?"

Thomas put the bracelets on our wrists and kissed us passionately. I was surprised to find he too had tears in his eyes. He blinked them away as he looked down at our wrists. The diamonds sparkled in the light and the infinity signs shone in the center of them.

"Where did you find something like this?" Kenley asked.

"I had them custom-made," he smiled. "Chase and Seb sent me to the jeweller who made Raven's necklace. I didn't want to copy what they had done for her, so I thought you would both love these."

"You're right about that!" I grinned. "We need to get something for you, though."

"Well, actually," he said, taking a third box from the drawer. "I thought the same thing. It just made sense to have the three made at once."

He opened the box and we both looked at it in awe. It, too, had an infinity sign but the bracelet was different from ours. Instead of a diamond-filled chain, it was white gold and had thick links, like a chain. I took it out of the box and fastened it on his wrist. It was perfect.

"You've got the chains, where are the whips," Kenley giggled.

"In my bag," he said, waggling his eyebrows.

"I'll be right back," Kenley said.

We looked on in confusion when she came back into the room with a rectangular box of her own. Thomas took it from her and she nodded at him to open it.

"Is this?—"

"Is that?—"

"It is," she grinned. "We're going to have a baby!"

"Oh my God, no wonder you wanted to move to the bigger house," I laughed.

Thomas picked her up and spun her around. I stepped forward and pulled them both close.

"I'm so excited," I cried. "Kenley, this is amazing."

"You're both happy?" she asked quietly.

"Thrilled," Thomas said, leaning down to kiss her.

"I couldn't be happier," I said, tears cascading down my cheeks.

Thomas grabbed our hands and led us to the bedroom, took me in his arms and kissed me hard. He broke the kiss and his mouth collided with Kenley's, kissing her just as passionately.

"Strip," he told us firmly.

We both scrambled to get our clothes off and I climbed onto the bed first, leaning up against the headboard. I motioned Kenley over and pulled her halfway sitting up against me, caressing her breasts. Thomas grinned as he pulled off his own clothes and then settled between her legs. She whimpered as he ran his tongue from her entrance to her clit, sucking it gently into his mouth. I rolled her nipples between my fingers and she moaned, hips bumping up against Thomas' face. He circled her clit with his tongue and pushed two fingers past her entrance.

She cried out and she ground against him as he urged her toward her release. I rolled my hips, my belly tightening as my clit rubbed against her spine, searching for my own. Thomas and I continued pleasuring her until an orgasm so strong tore through her, her entire body convulsed.

Thomas moved up the bed and stroked himself a couple of times before running the head through her wet folds. He pushed in slowly, filling her tight pussy with his cock, thrusting in and out. She moaned at the sensation as my breathing hitched, so close to an orgasm. Juices coated my pussy as I continued to bring myself off on Kenley. She cried out as his thick shaft stretched her.

Thomas' eyes closed and a pleasured look came across his face as he quickened his pace, slamming into her tight channel over and over again. He fucked her for what felt like hours and I screamed out their names as my orgasm hit me like a freight train, pleasure crashing through my body. Thomas' motions became erratic before plunging into her once more, exploding inside her. He collapsed against her chest and I ran my fingers through his air, the three of us panting as we tried to catch our breath.

"I love you both so much," I said softly, leaning my head back against the headboard.

"I love you too," Kenley whispered.

"And I will love you both until the end of time."

Our cravings might have been what brought us together but our love was what would keep us there forever.
