Taming Her Racy Ways [Racy Nights 5] (Siren Publishing Ménage Everlasting) Page 17
After she ate and brushed her teeth, she hurried down the main staircase. As she passed the risers on which she and Ellis had made love the previous evening, a huge smile spread across her face. Suddenly, his silly idea of having stairs built in his bedroom didn’t seem so bizarre. Just a few steps, maybe? Enough to accommodate both men behind her or on top of her.
By the time she approached the living room her pussy was wet. It always amazed her how easily the mere thought of being with them aroused her. Ellis and Rafe were seated on the sofa, with the space between them empty. They nodded as she came in, and she dropped to her knees in front of them. “First of all, sir, I’m sorry I slept so late.”
Ellis lifted her chin. “You don’t have to be sorry for that. You needed rest.”
“Thank you, sir.” He let go of her chin and she glanced at the floor again. “Today I freely and willingly give you both the gift of my submission. I will honor you both as my Doms, and do my best to please you.”
“Thank you, Marisol. And I accept the gift of your submission today, and will honor your limits, and pledge to do no harm to your body or to your spirit.”
“And I, too, accept the gift of your submission today, Marisol, and pledge to honor your limits, and to do no harm to your body or your spirit.” Rafe’s voice shook slightly, and Marisol hoped he was okay. Where had he been last night?
“Take a seat between us, Marisol.” She rose at the sound of Ellis’s voice and sat between them. “We have a gift for you.” He handed her a small rectangular box tied with a red ribbon.
“Thank you.” She stared at it, unsure what to think.
“You can open it.” Ellis’s voice was filled with humor.
Inside was a Pandora silver charm bracelet, complete with a charm that featured a heart and the key to it, attached by a tiny chain of its own. Next to that was a charm shaped like a butterfly that said “Best Friends Forever,” and on the other side was a charm in the shape of a scroll that said “Forever Together.” The bracelet also contained a charm in the shape of a single stiletto-heeled shoe. Marisol stared at it, not wanting to believe what she was seeing.
“We can add more charms to it,” said Ellis. “But for now, we chose these because of what they represented.”
“The shoe was my idea,” said Rafe. “Because you look so damn sexy in heels.”
Marisol swallowed against sudden tears as she looked from one man to the other.
“You have the key to our hearts, Marisol. And you are our best friend. We want you with us forever.”
“I don’t know what to say. I’m overwhelmed.”
Ellis took the bracelet from her and fastened it around her left wrist. “This was the best we could come up with on a Sunday morning, and that was only because we talked Sally Decker into opening the jewelry store for us just long enough to choose something. Later this week when we have more time, we’ll choose a proper collar. But we wanted this for you anyway because you can wear it anywhere, and it carries a powerful message.”
She still didn’t know what to say. They loved her. They both did. They wanted her with them forever. As in forever and ever amen. Ellis took her hands and gazed into her eyes with the same intensity as always, but this time she couldn’t deny what she saw in them. Marisol took a deep breath, afraid if she blinked the spell would be broken and she’d find this was only a dream.
“Marisol, I love you. I know that although we’ve known each other all our lives, we haven’t been together for very long. But it’s the truth. I’m more certain of this than I am of anything else in my life. I want to be your best friend, your lover, and your Dom. And I know we have a long way to go, but I want to teach you everything. I want to explore all your fantasies and discover along with you all your secret desires. Even the ones you don’t yet realize you have.”
“Ellis…I…I love you, too.” Marisol blinked rapidly as the tears spilled over her eyelids. “I’m so afraid of that, but there it is”
He smiled. “It’s okay. I’m afraid, too. But we have the foundation, and that’s all that matters. And I’m committed to making this work. You’re not only the sexiest woman I’ve ever known, but you’re the kindest. And you’re fun, and so easy to be with. It was inevitable, Marisol. I want you with me forever. I want to make you happy every day of your life. And I never thought I could do this.” He cut his gaze quickly to Rafe. “But I don’t mind sharing you. I want you to know that.”
Ellis released her hands as Rafe knelt beside her. Rafe took her hands, and Marisol sighed at the look on his face. It was the same look he’d given her when she was fourteen, and the same one she’d seen on his face the night of the tornado. It had always been there, just as Rafe had always been there. She understood that now in a way she never had before.
“Marisol, last night I went to plead my case one more time with my parents after Luke and I had dinner. It was pointless. They fired me, and they told me to move out.”
“Oh, Rafe. No. I don’t—”
He smiled and put a finger to her lips, cutting her off. “Let me finish. It was the best thing they could have done for me because it forced me to face facts. I love you. I have always loved you. I never stopped loving you. I’ve been an ass, and I’m so sorry for everything I’ve put you through lately. Luke helped me realize that while I love and respect my parents and always will, the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with is you. So I had to make a choice. And I choose you, Marisol.”
“Rafe…” It was more than she could ever have hoped for from him. His words were every dream she’d had about the two of them come true, all at the same time.
He brushed her cheek tenderly. “I can’t imagine my life without you. I waited so long to touch you and hold you in my arms, and make love to you, and now I can’t imagine my day-to-day life without that. I will gladly share you with Ellis. I want to be your best friend, your lover, and your Dom. I don’t know much about that last one, but Ellis will help me learn.”
“Rafe, I love you so much. I always have. You’ve been my gold standard. And the only other man who has ever measured up is Ellis.” Marisol took Ellis’s hand so that she now held onto both men. “You two are bigger than life to me. I’m absolutely crazy about you both, and I want to spend the rest of my life being submissive to you, and loving you, and making you happy. I know we have things to work out, and I know I have more things to learn as a sub, but we’ll do it together, because that’s the way it should be done.”
Ellis pulled her into his arms and kissed her. Marisol melted against his hard body. Her heart was so full of love that she could hardly think. This was so unexpected, and so perfect, and she couldn’t have written a more perfect ending to their fairy tale if she’d tried.
He released her, and then Rafe kissed her, picking her up and twirling her around the room as he did so. Marisol giggled into his open mouth, and when he placed her back on the ground she clung to him, never wanting to let go.
Ellis closed the doors to the living room and strode toward her, a look of pure lust in his eyes. “Now, about all those things you still need to learn…”
