Wow. So, that was who Trinity belonged to. And by the way his large hand rested on her leg possessively, she clearly belonged to him. The rings on their hands also told me they were married.

“Let’s go sit,” Saxon said.

I nodded, then followed him as he went over to the sofa facing the wall and sat down. I took the seat beside him. The others began to make their way over and began taking up the rest of the sofas. When I saw Maddy smiling up at a man who had his hand around her waist, speaking in a low voice as he leaned closer to her, I wasn’t surprised to see the oldest Hughes was as handsome as the youngest one was.

When Blaise Hughes turned to look in this direction, his eyes locked on mine, and he nodded his head once. Then, he went over to take the other chair before placing Maddy in his lap, much like the Viking had done to Trinity. I didn’t continue to watch them. Blaise was intimidating. His presence seemed to command respect. It was odd how that worked.

Shiloh and Gage sat across from us, and although she wasn’t in his lap, his arm was around her, and she was curled up close to his side.

Gage looked at Saxon and smirked. “Heard Melanie didn’t take the news well,” he drawled.

Saxon sighed and shook his head.

“At least she’ll stop inviting Declan to things now,” Trev replied as he sank down on the sofa beside them, pulling Gypsi down as close to him as she could get while she giggled. “Crazy bitch has been everywhere lately. I thought we’d gotten rid of her for good, then—bam—she was back. Like the plague.”

“Trev!” Gypsi scolded him, placing a hand on his chest.

“What? You don’t know her. She’s not a nice person. Is she, Maddy?” Trev replied.

Maddy shook her head. “I can’t say I’m a fan,” she replied.

“I’d rather not go down memory lane,” Blaise replied, then took a sip from his glass.

That comment and the look he gave the others made me even more curious. What had happened with Saxon and Maddy? I looked at her and suddenly felt even more out of my league. Had she once liked Saxon? My stomach felt sick. I couldn’t compare to someone like that.

“Understood,” Gage replied with an evil grin. “We can talk about the fact that these two are about to be related.” His gaze was on Trev then.

Trev smirked. “You can try to piss me off, but I don’t care. It just means she can’t fucking get rid of me. I got her locked down.”

Gypsi leaned close and whispered something to him that caused a smile meant only for her to curl on his lips. I dropped my hands to my lap, not wanting to be caught looking at any of them. They all seemed to be so wrapped up in each other and openly affectionate that it was hard not to be envious of it all.

What did that feel like? The connection, feeling safe, loved, like there was someone you could always turn to. You’d never be alone. No matter what life threw at you, they would be there, ready to hold you.

“Where’s Kye?” the Viking asked.

Kye had to be the blond guy. He was the one that was missing.

“Genesis,” Levi replied, sounding annoyed.

“Again?” Gage’s tone was as put off as Levi’s had been.

“Yeah. She called a couple of hours ago. He ran out of the house like the pussy he is,” Levi told them.

“He stayed drunk for a fucking week when she got engaged.” The Viking was scowling as he said it.

“His ass stayed drunk because she’s not his best friend. That is bullshit. It’s always been bullshit. You can’t be best friends with a woman. You get that close, and then you’re fucking. She gets feelings and shit. You can’t tell me they’ve not fucked.” Gage seemed put out by it all.

“I don’t think they’ve fucked. If they had, he’d have killed the fiancé by now,” Levi pointed out.

“They’ve been friends since they were kids,” Saxon said beside me. “Maybe that’s all it is. They’d have been more by now if they had feelings for each other.”

“He got trashed and didn’t sober up for seven damn days when he found out they were engaged. Remember he missed the Breeders Cup?” Trev replied.

“Yeah, that was off, I admit,” Saxon agreed.

“Why the fuck are we analyzing Kye’s relationship?” Blaise asked.

“Because it’s annoying the shit out of the ones who have to live with him,” Levi replied.

“I think he loves her. I feel bad for him,” Aspen said softly.

“If he does, then we have some serious shit in the near future to deal with,” the Viking sighed.

“I need to get our house finished before that shit goes down. I don’t want to deal with his ass daily if he goes off the deep end,” Levi said.
