house, unobtrusively, leaving him alone.
He almost managed to keep his mind on his studies.
A little before lunchtime, Leah paused in the dining room doorway.
"What's up, hon?” he asked.
"Did you want grilled chicken or turkey for your salad?"
The question took him off guard. “What?"
"What kind of meat?"
"Don't go overboard for me."
She stepped inside the room, a hint of thunderclouds rolling through her green eyes. “I'm not. I'm taking care of you."
He bit back a reply. Wouldn't most guys kill for this? For their own personal slave?
"Whatever Kade's having."
That answer seemed to soothe her. “What time do you think you'll be home? So I can plan dinner."
"I'll just grab something.” He stopped when she frowned again. “I don't want you guys waiting on me to eat."
"It's okay. If you think you'll be late I can make Kaden's and have yours ready. I don't want you to eat fast food."
"Why doesn't Kaden weigh three hundred pounds?” he snarked.
She smiled. “I keep him busy."
Something he could laugh about. And it looked good to see Leah smile.
He leaned back. Before all this shit hit the fan they'd had fun playfully bantering back and forth, gentle teasing that never quite reached outright flirting but still fun and friendly. Not so much during his own marriages or around his wives, just in between.
And there were plenty of times in between.
"You going to keep me busy?"
She flushed a little. It stirred his cock despite his best efforts. “I hope so."
He waved her to him and pulled her into his lap despite knowing it wouldn't help his situation. She put her arms around his neck.
"You guys said honesty, so I'll be honest,” he said. “I don't know how crazy I can be. How...” He fought to come up with the right words. “If I can keep up a full-time Master act. I'll do my best to do whatever you need me to do, but I'm probably going to need down time from that."
"I know. A lot of the time Kaden and I aren't doing that.” She smiled. “Well, except for my collar."
"And running around naked."
Her smile widened. “I like it. Just because I'm naked doesn't mean you have to act any different than you normally do. Just ... sometimes."
Hell, he'd had a hard enough time getting his ex wives naked in bed, much less to run around that way all the time.
"That'll be good enough for you?"
"Yeah."
"I mean, I'm going to want to be normal, whatever that is, a lot of the time."
She nodded. “I know. Me too."
"Just normal naked."
She grinned. “Right. Normal naked."
He wished she was wearing more than the long T-shirt and collar. “I know Kaden said something about not being formal for a while. Could we be whatever passes for vanilla normal around here for a couple of weeks? I've got exams to study for. Once I get the semester behind me you guys can start showing me full-time formal or whatever you call it."
She frowned. “You really should start learning some of the whip stuff."
"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking just everyday stuff, like right now. I know we've got a limited window of time. I need to ease into this. It'll make it easier on me in the long run."
That seemed to make sense to her. She nodded. “Does that mean I need to wear clothes all the time?"
He resisted the urge to stroke her thigh. “How about when I'm trying to study, you should dress like this, at least."
She grinned. “And when you're not?"
Man up, asshole.
He shrugged. “Give me a few days before you start springing the full Monty on me again, girl."
She hugged him. “Thank you, Seth,” she whispered.
He put his arms around her and hugged her back.
Wormhole. Here was his best friend's wife, thanking him for allowing her to run around naked in front of him.
Or he'd died and dropped into some weird mix of Heaven and Hell all swirled together—
