“I mean, he did lie and tell you that you didn’t give him a good dicking, so…”

He caressed her cheek.

“Okay, Bishop. I won’t say anything. When he’s back together again, you can scare the shit out of Humpty.”

She was honest.

“He and I have to build a relationship,” she admitted. “I think I’m going to ask him out on a date.”

Lucian stared at her.

“I’m sorry, pardon?”

She snorted.

“What’s wrong, Lucian? You don’t want your boyfriend to have a girlfriend?”

He was to the point.

“Oh, he can have a trip. He can have a party. He can have a field of fucking poppies, but he’s not having my wife.”

She laughed.

“Not what I meant. I want to get to know him as you know him. If we’re going to rebuild our family, and include him and Sophia, I need to learn how to love him, too. That means opening myself up and him doing the same. We’re sharing the same man, and your dick is in him and me. That’s intimate.”

Lucian understood what she was saying.

“Now I need to ask one thing because I’m not nearly as secure as you are. Are you attracted to him?”

She shook her head.

“Nope, and not in the least. I’m a one-beast kind of a girl. I don’t like the boy next door, and in this case, literally. I like a slick as spit attorney, who can talk himself in and out of trouble.”

He didn’t miss a beat.

“You rang?”

She winked at him.

“I was thinking he and I could go to dinner and talk. We could build our relationship outside of yours. That way, we could both be who you need. I’m willing to love him because you love him. Now, I have to learn who he is.”

He smiled.

And this was what he meant when he said Bishop was not the ordinary woman.

She was extraordinary.

“You’re a good woman, Bishop. Not a day goes by that I don’t thank the universe that you’re mine—and it’s why I’m not sharing you. You’re the treasure that everyone seeks, and few find. I know that to the depths of my soul.”

When he kissed her on the tip of her nose, she broke it to him.

“Yeah, yeah, but I am still going to get some pussy.”

He stared at her.

One of the issues with loving Bishop was her ability to go from subject-to-subject, leaving his rational mind in the dust. Now, he had to figure out where this was going.

And fast.
