it anyway. “So…um…” She searched her brain for a change in topic but nothing came to mind. She’d been friends with Kaydin and Jerrod for months, had actually built a comfortable friendship, but somehow all of that got lost under Kaydin’s hurt expression.

    Jerrod stayed outside of the room. He’d gotten home early from a three-day training maneuver and had wanted to surprise his lover and the woman important to both of them by picking them up from work. But instead, he found himself holding his breath, waiting for Kaydin to say something, maybe do something to convince Serena that she belonged with them.
    Hell, they’d waited and waited for an opportunity to broach the subject, but Serena had never given any indication that she’d be willing to stay on Descon.
    “Serena, do you know how special you are to me and Jerrod?”
    “Special?” she asked, sounding a little bit shaken. “I’m just that homeless human that you—”
    Serena’s words cut off abruptly, and Jerrod hoped that it meant Kaydin was kissing her. A quick glance around the open door had his pulse racing and his cock filling so fast he thought it wisest to get out of the hallway. Desconians might have been very comfortable with their sexuality, but that didn’t include having a hard-on in a school hallway. Thankfully, the children were gone for the day, but just to be on the safe side, he stepped into the room.
    Kaydin and Serena broke apart quickly, obviously startled by his unannounced entry. Kaydin gave him a warm smile and moved into his arms. Thankfully the clever man kept a hold of Serena’s hand, so she had no option but to step closer. Jerrod held his husband close with one arm and held out his other for Serena to take. She searched his face for a moment, gave him a shy smile, and stepped into his embrace.
    He held them both close.
    “You’re home early,” Kaydin said as he reached up to press a kiss to his lips. Somehow his lover made it seem so normal, as if the three of them always cuddled together when he came home from a mission or training exercise.
    “I am,” he said, trying to follow Kaydin’s conversational lead. “And apparently just in time to learn that my favorite meal is on the dinner menu.” He smiled down at Serena and hoped like hell he was saying the right things. What he really wanted to do was strip her naked and explore every beautiful inch of her body until she agreed to be their mubella, but considering they were still inside the school it was neither the time nor the place.
    “Welcome home,” Serena said. And then she managed to rock his world on its axis by leaning up to kiss him.

    She kissed him .
    And he hadn’t let her go since, not even for a moment. Thankfully, Jerrod had brought his flying pod to pick them up. Descon had a very good public transport system that most people used, but right at this moment it was a relief not to have to travel surrounded by other people.
    “Jerrod,” she asked nervously as his big hand drew tiny circles high on her thigh.
    “Yes, little one.” His hand stilled for just a moment as he glanced at her face.
    “Can we…skip going to the market? I mean…I need ingredients for dinner, but I, um…can I make vegetable lasagna tomorrow night?”
    Kaydin laughed quietly and pressed a kiss to her cheek. “I have a feeling that food is the last thing on our man’s mind.”
    “You’ve got that right,” Jerrod said as he moved his hand to grasp hers.
    As soon as they arrived home he landed the flying pod one-handed, quickly ran through the system shutdown sequence, and then hauled Serena onto his lap. She barely had a moment to appreciate the feel of his strong arms around her before his mouth found hers. But his kiss was gentle, affectionate, maybe even a little hesitant until she relaxed in his arms.
    With a soft sound of pleasure, Jerrod deepened the kiss, touching his tongue to hers tentatively at first, but then stroking her
