own head, but shouldn’t Peter be happy and smiling at a celebration like today? Of course, people always talked business, and Mas was excited that maybe Aurelia was about to get a job at last. But Peter? No he didn’t like Peter at all. As soon as he got home tonight, he’d check some websites he trusted and find out more about the man.
    Also Niall was still stiffly alert. That was a warning sign. The man might be a retired marine, but he hadn’t lost any of his old skills, and Mas was certain Niall didn’t trust Peter Blake any more than he did.
    Aurelia chatted a little longer. Peter handed her his card and nodded to both Mas and Niall, then blended back into the party. Aurelia was sparkling with happiness, and Mas really hoped he wasn’t going to have to give her any bad news about Peter or the job.
    “He hasn’t promised you a job, sweet,” warned Niall.
    “No, but he’s hiring, and Ormonde has recommended me. It’s the closest I’ve been to a real job yet!” She was so happy Mas couldn’t say anything about how he felt to her, so he just smiled gently at her.
    “Ye gods! I must get back to check on everything,” she said and hurried away, her deep-red, silk gown rustling as she left. Once again, their clothes were hired. Mas had the feeling the people at the formal wear hire company hoped Aurelia was given many more parties to plan.
    He raised an eyebrow at Niall, but Niall was still watching her move around the room, back on duty, smiling, nodding, always supervising the staff, yet never brushing anyone away who approached her.
    “She’s damn good at it, isn’t she,” he said.
    “Yes she is. But you and I need to talk after she’s asleep tonight.”
    “Exactly what I was thinking.”

    Aurelia was as drunk as if she’d been sipping champagne all night instead of mineral water. The party had gone off perfectly. Every last detail had fallen into place. The waitstaff had been brilliant, and not so much as a single glass had been broken despite the crowd of several hundred guests.
    Ormonde had looked so pretty in her cream gown, and Kyryl and Damon were transparently besotted with her. Their happiness was important to Aurelia. It was their special day, and their pleasure was key to the success of the event.
    But no one was as kind, caring, and delicious as her own two men, Niall and Mas. They made her so happy, always ensuring she was cherished and protected. She’d never felt so totally loved before as she did these days. Having two Prince Charmings most certainly doubled the love.
    One of the guests had asked her to come and discuss plans for her daughter’s Sweet Sixteen party, and another man had asked her if she arranged parties for senior citizens. So it looked like her event planning business may become a going concern after all. Then there was Mr. Blake and a regular job. Her life was wonderful. Everything she could possibly want was coming true. Not just the two perfect men who she loved with every fiber of her being, but a job, or several jobs, maybe even a career, as well.
    And now, bed with her men. She knew just exactly what she wanted tonight, too. Both of them inside her, pounding away, together. Nothing made her feel quite so cherished as being taken by them both together. Holding them both in her arms at the same time, kissing and hugging them both, and being skin to skin as a threesome. For Aurelia, nothing was better than that, although almost everything they did together was very good.
    Carefully, she took off the red gown and hung it back in its plastic zippered container. By the time she was done, she noticed that both the men were naked, sitting on the bed surrounded by lube and condoms.
    “Are you sure we’re going to need that many rubbers? It’s just the three of us tonight, isn’t it, not a football team?” she teased.
    Niall made a rumbling noise of disapproval, but Mas laughed.
    “We’ve spent the entire afternoon and evening wanting you right
