deserves to dine like a king.”
Marco’s breath hitched. “You’d better start talking before I freak the fuck out.”
Kent pulled a stool in front of Marco’s and told him the events as they happened. “…so you see, if I’d been on that couch I’d be dead. But more importantly, if you hadn’t told Moody about Eddy coming by and the four of you were home…”
Kent closed his eyes and pulled Marco in for a kiss. “I keep going over and over it in my mind.”
After the initial shock of hearing how close Kent was to getting shot, Marco’s lust began to get the better of him. He wasn’t sure if it was the need to reaffirm Kent was okay, or the thought that he’d come close to losing either the man he loved or his family. “I need you to fuck me.”
Kent ’s eyes went wide. “Wh…what?”
Marco stood and grabbed his crutches. “Where are the boys sleeping?”
Kent still appeared shocked. “Well, I thought they might enjoy sleeping in the maid’s quarters over the garage. It’s set up like a small apartment.”
“You have a maid?” Marco was shocked.
“No, well, yes, but Lisa only comes twice a week. The house was built with a family in mind.”
“Okay, I’ll tell the boys to find it and head to bed in an hour.” Marco pressed his body against Kent. “Feed the dog, take him out to pee and meet me in your bedroom.”
Kent appeared completely rattled by the exchange as Marco made his way towards the media room.

By the time Rufus finally found a spot suitable to do his business, Kent was starting to get impatient. “Come on, boy.”
He locked up the house, turned off the lights and set the alarm before taking the steps two at a time. Taking the time to peek in Maria’s room, Kent was surprised to find the little girls eyes wide open. “Hey, aren’t you supposed to be asleep?”
“Did you talk to Eddy?”
Kent walked into the room and sat on the edge of the bed. It didn’t surprise him Maria would refer to Eddy by name. Even in the short time he’d known the little girl, it was obvious Marco had been the only father-figure in her life. “No.”
This was entirely new territory for him. He wasn’t sure if he was supposed to lie or tell the truth. One thing he was sure of was that he’d never put the sweet little girl in harm’s way. “Would you like to stay here for a while?”
“What about Marco?”
Kent smiled. “You can all stay.”
Maria rolled to her side and clasped her hands under her cheek. “Why do you live in this big house all by yourself? Don’t you get lonely?”
Kent swallowed around the lump in his throat. “Yes, it’s very lonely sometimes. Which is why you guys would be doing me a big favour if you stayed.”
“Sometimes I spill stuff,” Maria admitted.
“That’s okay.”
“But your house looks brand new. Won’t you get mad?”
Kent shook his head. “My house is older than you are. It only looks new because it’s never really been a home.” He playfully tugged on one of Maria’s curls. “I’d much rather have stains on the floor if it meant I wasn’t alone anymore.”
“Marco likes you. He told us.”
“Can I tell you a secret?”
Maria nodded.
Kent bent down to whisper in her ear. “I’m in love with your brother.” He rose back up and put his finger over his lips. “Shhh, don’t tell him. It’ll be our secret.”
Maria giggled and pretended to lock her lips and throw away the key.
With a smile on his face, Kent stood and tucked the covers around Maria. “Would you feel better if Rufus slept with you?”
Maria’s eyes widened. “Really?”
“I’ll be right back.” Kent left the room and went to the top of the stairs and called for his furry saviour. “Rufus! Come here, boy.”
The big German Shepherd bounded up the stairs. Kent led the dog to Maria’s room where Rufus promptly jumped on the bed, licked the little girl and settled beside her.
Feeling better, Kent went to the master bedroom. He
