I glanced over at Silas. “Did you fuck thecontractor?”

I was more curious than frustrated becausereally, both of us had a past, so I couldn’t complain. Silas immediately shookhis head, looking up from his phone. “No.”

Well,that left oneoption.

Tanner was biting his lip, his gaze dartingback and forth between the door and Silas. Wade was still looking veryindecisive, but Jonah actually spoke up. Maybe he had been paying attention.“Graham is very uncomfortable.”

Duh.

“You know why?” Maybe he’d been reading thelines on Graham’s jeans like tea leaves.

“No.” He was back to watching the door likeit was the portal to an alternate dimension full of hot Doms and great food.

Not helpful at all.

So back to Silas. “Is there anything youmight want to share with the crowd?”

There was a very long pause. “Not really.”

Shit.

Yeah, he knew something and couldn’t tellus.

Everyone’s eyes got wide and as we turnedto the door, Graham walked in. He took one look at us and then frowned atSilas. “Really? Big mouth much?”

Silas rolled his eyes and snorted. “Youhave no poker face and no ability to lie. I didn’t say anything, you just did,moron.”

“Shit.” Graham looked between us all andsighed. “Let’s just go back to work.”

Really?

I rolled my eyes. “Yes, because awkwardconversations are so much fun and so productive.”

Silas shot me a look that meant I shouldbehave, but the rest of the guys were trying not to smile, so I just blew Silasa kiss. Graham actually chuckled, the first relaxed sound he’d made since he’dshown up. “You two? I couldn’t figure out why he was here.”

I beamed. “Yes.”

Then to break up the tension a little more,I bounced over to Silas and gave him a smacky kiss. “This hunk of frowningmanliness is all mine.”

I could see Silas’s eyes twinkle, but hefought to keep the frown. He was probably trying to keep me from letting thecat out of the bag, but I had a feeling that ship had sailed. There was no wayGraham was that uncomfortable because he’d been buying a few sex toys.

Silas must have realized that because hehuffed and his growled words sent a shiver through me. “Behave, Trouble.”

“But that’s no fun.” Winking at him, Ikissed him again and then danced over to the table. “Okay, let’s finish thislike real adults because I have plans later that don’t involve you guys.”

Quiet laughter rolled through the room, butGraham kept looking around at all of us before settling on me. “How did youguys meet?”

Loadedquestionmuch?

“Who doesn’t know the hottest sex toy storeowner in the state?” I turned my head and blew Silas another kiss.

But instead of distracting Graham, thatjust made him question it more. For someone who was trying to hide his kinkyside, he certainly asked a lot of questions. “But as an omega, you can’t go intothe store. So how did you meet?”

Graham ignored the low growl coming from Silas,so his self-preservation instincts were terrible. Before I could answer, Shanecleared his throat. I guess he was tired of me being the one to getinterrogated because he glared at Graham and decided to take one for the team.“I introduced them. Is that going to be a problem?”

Watching the two cousins glare at eachother, I leaned toward Tanner. “If they start fighting, I’m going to pretendthey’re brothers. That will be hotter.”

Silas barked out a laugh, but Tannergroaned and poked me. “Can’t you be serious?”
