Julian completely lost control of hislaughter which had Niall shooting him another dirty glare. He was definitelynot going to forget this moment when we met with Miles.
I couldn’t wait.
“Yes, that angry giant is Grant.” Niallsighed. “I knew I should’ve called him back instead of texting.”
But the frustration in the text was thereason Niall had been avoiding the call, so I wasn’t sure there’d been any wayout of the circular logic.
As we got closer, I decided he wasn’t thatscary because anyone who could dote on their partner that much couldn’t be bad.Every time he looked down at the bossy man wearing the nightie, he smiled andgave him a kiss even though the other man seemed to be telling him to behave.
They looked fascinating too.
“Do you think they’d let me sketch them as Beautyand the Beast? I mean, Master Grant is sexy, but I could make him look like areally cool beast and fairy tale them up a bit. No one would be able torecognize their faces.” I thought I was quiet but the sound must’ve carriedmore than I realized because Niall groaned as the pretty man blushed.
“Oops.” Before I could figure out if anapology was necessary, we got close enough that I just shut up.
Wide eyes and a closed mouth helped out ina lot of awkward situations with Doms.
Julian leaned in and whispered low. “Don’tlook too innocent. They’ll think we’re robbing the cradle.”
Well, considering I was barely twenty-oneand they were in their forties, they had.
“If I keep looking innocent, will it get mea spanking or no orgasms for a week?” I needed to know what I was dealing with.
A very serious-looking guy about my age whowas kneeling on the floor cocked his head and nodded. “Yes, asking questionsbefore making promises in this type of situation is a very good plan.”
I nodded, smiling. “I’m normally verywell-behaved, but this is different.”
Julian and Niall both snorted.
I just kept up my innocent, eager smile.“Just ignore them. We’re working on manners.”
The young man on the ground looked up athis…Dom? Master? His something. “I think this counts as meeting someone new.”
The Dom chuckled. “You haven’t even askedhis name.”
“That is not a prerequisite to claimingthat I’ve fulfilled the rule.” He shook his head. “I learned details about hislife and we found a topic we agree on.”
He was interesting too.
So many new people to paint.
“What’s your opinion on public nudity forartistic purposes?” He just blinked at me for a few seconds as he considered myquestion.
“It would depend on the artistic goals andwhat my Master said.”
“Oh yes. Rules.” I looked up at the smilingman. “Can I paint your sub naked?”
I thought I was being polite, but Julianstarted coughing as the man blinked and watched me for a moment before hesmiled again. “I think we should all go to dinner this week and we’ll figureout the answer to that question.”
“Wonderful.” I tried to picture thecalendar. “How does Thursday work for you? Master Niall and Master Julian havea date on Wednesday and we have a lot of plans already in place.”
Miles had been so eager he hadn’t made mewait until Monday to look at his calendar, but they didn’t need to know abouttherapy until I knew who they were, at the very least.
I thought things were going well, but thegrumpy man didn’t appreciate being ignored, especially when the pretty man keptchuckling and didn’t seem to agree with the frowning Dom’s mood. “You need toRSVP. It’s just fucking polite.”
What?
That didn’t seem to be aimed at me, so Iturned to Niall and Julian who were both watching the other Dom like they hadno idea how to respond.
