“Yeah.” My hand trailed to her ass then her thigh as I hiked her leg a little higher. “Daddy’s home.”
“Good.” She kissed my throat then shifted to lay her head on my pillow.
I blinked at her while my eyes tried to adjust.
“You still mad at Kiano?” I asked after a beat.
“I don’t know,” she admitted. “I’m more annoyed that he thinks I would be lying to you guys to the point that he had to set up cameras and shit in the first place to be honest. I’m not mad. I’m offended and… scared,” she finished softly.
“Jiselle, me and Kiano would never fucking hurt you and you know that shit.”
“Not of you,” she said. “I know you and Kiano wouldn’t hurt me, but I mean… If it was that easy for you and Kiano, who else can be in my shit? You know? I don’t even want to go home anymore. I was lied to and manipulated and I don’t like that shit. You know how my father did all that manipulative shit to my mother and I’m not about to be that kind of bitch for you or Kiano.”
Kiano lifted himself behind me.
“Jiselle, that camera didn’t go up until the three of us had already slept together and told you what it was. Does that make it right? No. But we didn’t record you in advance and use your calls and conversations and shit to fake who we were to lock you down. We just liked staring at your pretty ass all day.”
She giggled. “Only you can make that weird shit sound cute.”
“He’s just being real with you. If I could look at you all damn day, I would, and you know I mean that,” I offered.
“I don’t want to be with people who lie to me, Stone.”
“We didn’t lie.”
“Don’t piss me off,” she warned. Kiano laughed behind me and Jiselle lifted to hit him, which just made him laugh more. “I’m serious!”
“Alright. I probably shouldn’t have put cameras in your place. I can admit that.”
“And you won’t do it again?”
“Not without permission.”
“You promise?”
“I promise.”
“Good.”
“Jiselle,” I said carefully. “What do I have to do to make this shit work?”
“What dowehave to do?” Kiano corrected.
“I want you to promise you’re not going to set up any more cameras without my permission… which was a stupid ass ideain the first place when I cam and would have willingly been on camera any damn way.”
“You’re right. We’re dumb as fuck,” I agreed and kissed her throat. My fingertips trailed up and down the back of her bare leg.
“Don’t try to butter me up, Stone. I’m fucking serious.”
“And I’m listening to you, baby. I promise. What else? Tell us what else you want because you deserve all that shit and we want to give it to you.”
“For the rest of your life,” Kiano added.
“That’s it. I just want y’all to trust me like you want me to trust you, and to be honest, faithful, and understanding.”
“We can do that,” I said quickly.
“Good because I’m not either of our mama’s, nigga, and I will leave you.”
