Chapter One

She should be coming in later today. Her house isn’t ready until Sunday, but I’ve said she can stay with us until she gets herself on her feet, Landon Hunt said.

Gavin Powell glanced across the dinner table at his lover and business partner. They’d been friends for years. In the last five years their friendship had turned to love. There was nowhere else he’d rather be than with Landon. Are you sure she’s going to be okay with us? he asked.

He watched as his lover nodded. She’s been through a pretty rough breakup. Derek was a fucking bastard to her. The divorce was final a week ago.

I don’t mean about that. I mean with us. Gavin pointed between them hoping Landon would understand what he was trying to say.

She knows we’re a couple.

Do I need to take you over my knee? Gavin asked. He knew when Landon was purposefully avoiding the obvious.

No, Sir. Landon’s head bowed down in submission. Watching the blond curls fall over the other man’s brow, Gavin felt an answering pulse in his cock. He loved watching Landon’s submission. He’d trained Landon well, and their relationship grew deeper every day. The trust between them was important. Gavin refused to be a Dom to anyone without that vital piece of trust.

Now, answer my question. Does she know about us? He asked the question again waiting for an answer.

No, she doesn’t. She remembers you from when she lived here.

Do you think she’s a submissive? Answer that question properly. There’s no room in this relationship for two Doms.

Gavin watched as Landon licked his lips. The remembered feel of those lips wrapped around his shaft swept through him. His feelings for this man scared him. Never in all of his life had he been so connected to someone else. Before Landon, his relationships were about mutual satisfaction in the bedroom with little else to look forward to. Landon gave him everything he craved, love, respect, and above everything else, submission. Gavin had been a Dom for some time. Domination was part of his soul, and he couldn’t imagine living without it.

She’s a submissive. Her problem with Derek was the fact he didn’t know what to do with her. He was a cruel bastard and should be shot for the way he treated her.

Gavin had seen pictures of Heidi, and part of him looked forward to meeting her. They’d seen each other in passing when she’d lived in Creek Valley. The small town was a tourist attraction with the local waterfalls on the edge of the town. Several ranches brought work to the area along with a mall. They were a lucky town. There were so many small towns that weren’t so lucky.

Heidi had left Creek Valley ten years ago when her parents up and left to go to the city. Landon had kept in touch with the young woman as they’d been good neighbouring friends even though there was a five year age gap between them. Gavin was ten years older than Heidi and only five years older than Landon. He was thirty-five and ready to settle down. Landon was the man he wanted, and according to him, Heidi would be the perfect woman to complement their life.

We’ll meet her at the airport. I’ll leave the introductions to you, Gavin said. He picked up the morning paper and started to read about the local events. Summer was in full swing, and there was always something to look forward to. His summer looked pretty interesting. He’d reserve his opinion of Heidi for when they met. His memory wasn’t what it used to be.

Landon finished his breakfast then went around the small kitchen putting away their dishes. Gavin knew their relationship helped the younger man to focus. Before he had come along, Landon had been lost and the ranch he owned falling apart at the seams. His folks’ passing had sent the younger man over the edge. He didn’t know what to do or how best to make it work. With Gavin throwing all of his power at the younger man, Landon was able to focus, and soon the ranch was a thriving business.

If it wasn’t for his own experience, Gavin would have felt guilty for the way he’d taken over the running of the ranch. The property was all in Landon’s name. Gavin wasn’t a gold-digger, and there was no way he’d let the property go to anyone but his man.

When the kitchen was spotless they made their way out of the house to check on the herd. Several of their workers were already herding the cattle. The few horses they owned were being groomed. Inhaling the fresh air, Gavin felt happy. Heidi was on her way home. His lover hadn’t been able to rest from the moment she’d called to inform him of the upcoming divorce. Landon was in love with the younger woman. Jealousy struck Gavin in the chest. He’d known early in their relationship that he wasn’t enough for Landon. A woman was necessary for their life to work.

Gavin loved the soft heat of a woman, but he’d truly believed Landon was enough for him. Shrugging, he made his way out to the fields. He loved working outside. He’d never be the type of man confined to a desk sitting in front of a computer all day. Doing the books at night and keeping the overall running of the Hunt Ranch was enough for him.

He hoped he and Heidi were enough to keep Landon stable. The younger man was easily distracted. Keeping his submission had been a challenge.

Staring to where his man stood stroking a horse’s back, love filled Gavin’s chest. He’d do everything to guarantee his happiness. The love he felt for Landon startled him. He’d known from a young age about the attraction he had for other men, but he also loved women. Having the best of both worlds would be a dream come true. Being in a relationship with both a man and woman would be a challenge. He looked forward to exploring both.

Heidi Larson rubbed her hands together. The late afternoon sun no longer provided enough heat, and goose-bumps erupted along her arms. She should have put something more suitable on. The thin summer dress she wore didn’t hide the excess weight she’d gained since the divorce. Derek enjoyed verbalising all of her faults.

"You’re a fucking fat bitch."

"It’s like being married to a pig."

"No wonder I find other women. You’re too fat to fuck."

She tucked stray strands of hair behind her ear, wishing she could forget all the cruel words he used to say to her. Her weight was always a problem. Heidi lost cost of the number of diets she’d been on in the past five years.

Picking up her bag, she moved toward the selection of seats in the far corner. She stayed near the window in the hope of spotting Landon. He’d promised to pick her up. The few possessions she owned were in her one suitcase. Derek took everything with him when he moved his woman into their apartment. She didn’t mind. The apartment had never lost the bachelor feel to it.

Why did you marry the bastard?

For the last three years she’d been married, she’d asked herself on a daily basis why she put up with his shit. She hated him, or at least she’d come to hate him in the last year. When they first got married everything was perfect, but he’d quickly turned nasty.

The weight gain couldn’t be stopped. Instead of starving herself when the nasty comments came out, she went straight for the chocolate and cream.

Pressing a finger into her fleshy stomach, Heidi tried to suck her tummy in. Shaking her head, she stared out of the window.

Rubbing her arms she tried to stop the chill from bothering her. Derek never bought her a sweater in all the winters they’d been together. He didn’t see the need to spend money when she was large enough to keep the heat inside
