Daye, Rainey - An Unconventional Love (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour) by Rainey Daye Page B

there was anything else for her to bring to the table before taking her seat.
    Seeing the men approaching with the eggs and bacon, she went ahead and sat down while Alex took his place on her left and Jesse sat down at her right.
    “You outdid yourself, Jess,” she remarked appreciatively as she savored her breakfast. “This is delicious.”
    Alex concurred, and the three of them concentrated on eating rather than engaging in their normal idle breakfast chitchat since none of them had had dinner last night and were starving, hence the weekend breakfast on a weekday that they were currently enjoying to the fullest.
    Maggie was actually surprised that none of them seemed to be experiencing any awkward “morning after” qualms and had instead fallen quite easily into the morning routine that they had perfected over the past six months, although the large meal when it wasn’t the weekend was a bit out of the ordinary.
    When Alex finished his breakfast first, he patted his lips with his napkin before he pushed his chair back and stood up. Grabbing his plate and a couple of other empty ones from the table, he took them to the sink and rinsed them off for Maggie. That was one of her quirks. She had no problem with doing the dishes as long as the dishes were rinsed immediately so the food wouldn’t congeal on the plates. She would then run her own dishwater and scrub the dishes clean, disdaining the industrial-grade dishwasher.
    Alex poured some coffee into a thermos for himself while Jess rose from the table and returned the condiments to the fridge. Making his way back to where Maggie was still sitting at the table, nibbling on a leftover piece of bacon while watching some birds chasing a squirrel away from the feeder, Alex gripped her chin in his hand and tilted her face up to him. Smiling at the look of surprise on her face, he leaned down and kissed her soundly on the lips, briefly dancing his tongue with hers. He then straightened up and grabbed his thermos before he left the kitchen with a wave over his shoulder as he announced that he was running a little late for class and would see them that evening.
    Maggie bemusedly watched him leave and then turned to Jess, who had returned to stand near the table. “We don’t have class for a couple more hours,” he stated and held out his hand to her in unspoken invitation. Smiling, Maggie took it and allowed him to draw her to her feet and then into his arms. He captured her lips with his own and kissed her hungrily while he cupped her face with one hand.
    Pulling back, Jess reached for her hand again and led her into the living room, where he pulled her down onto the oversized sectional sofa with him and proceeded to kiss her senseless.
    Maggie briefly wondered how long she could manage to remain the “rational one” while they partook of their first make-out session together. She hungrily twined her tongue with his and delighted in the feel of his hands roaming all over her body. But when she realized that he was keeping his hands strictly over her clothes, she knew she could relax and trust him not to allow them to get carried away.
    Jess finally broke away from their kisses and simply cuddled with her. “By the way,” Jess finally said. “Alex and I were talking last night after you fell asleep.”
    “Yeah?” she asked, burrowing deeper against him with her head resting against his upper chest while her hands trailed along his back and shoulders.
    “It’s about us,” he said, and Maggie stiffened, suddenly afraid of what he was going to say.
    “Relax,” Jess soothed as he stroked her back and placed a quick kiss on the top of her head as he felt her tense up. Giving her hip a squeeze, he continued. “Some of our classmates already know that we’re roommates, right?”
    “The ones in our study group do at least. Ever since that day you told me you would see me at home when you had to leave one of our sessions early. And since you and Alex had made me promise
