Accepting His Ways (Quinlan O'Connor Book 2) (28 page)
The O’Connor duo stood stock still at her question. Parker laughed and said, “We are setting up your torture chamber.”
“What?” Cheyenne’s eyes grew big.
“Or your naughty room,” Josh said with a laugh.
“Hey, man, Cheyenne is now my sister,” protested Liam, “and that’s definitely too much information. I mean, we all knew Quinn was into power play, but to know it and talk about it especially in front of my sister, surrounded by the evidence is just not right.”
“Yeah, Josh, cool it. I mean you hang out with them but we don’t want to think about it.” Ciarán shook his head. “Really.”
“Mas—, umm Josh, could we all agree to not talk about this again?” Cheyenne found it difficult to be directing in a room with a club master surrounded by all of this equipment. “I mean all of it. The reason Quinn fell, that you all are down here and that you even know. Well,” she looked shyly at Josh, “not you, sir, but in public and this is close to public. Quinn is going to kill me for letting you, and kill all of you for doing it.” Cheyenne signed in consternation.
“Yes, Cheyenne, I’ll stop filling them in with details.” Josh laughed when all the others said, “thank you.”
“Yeah, so I guess talking about my ménage à trois is too much, huh?”
“You have two women?” Parker asked in awe.
“Nope, one woman between two men and before you ask, we only concentrate on her. We don’t touch each other.” The room got quiet. “Okay, enough true confessions. Also, before you wonder and wish you had asked, Quinn and Cheyenne are exclusive and would never go outside of that monogamous relationship.”
“Okay, enough. Just hurry and get out.” Cheyenne left to go up the stairs. Just before she rounded the doorway into her bedroom two flights up, she heard Parker ask the question, “You mean your girlfriend is okay with that?”
“She requested it.”
“Damn.”
Cheyenne smiled.
Walking into her bedroom the next afternoon, her heart almost exploded with the fullness of her feelings to see Quinn home safe and sound. She couldn’t contain her joy. He called her over to him.
“Cheyenne, Josh has something that we have been talking about for a little while and now it seems there’s enough interest and enough capital to make it happen. You know that Carter accepted the head of internal medicine at that huge medical group in Bozeman, right?”
“Um, yeah, but does that mean I have to go to Bozeman for my medical appointments now?”
Quinn stopped as though he hadn’t considered that question. “I suppose we both will for the major stuff but for normal, little things, we can use the doc in town like the rest of the family.”
“Oh, so are Master Josh and Sue moving as well or are they splitting up?”
“Well, Sue is going to work remotely for the most part and Josh is an analyst who does most of his work on sites all over. His home base won’t matter much.”
“Meaning they will be closer to us.” She sighed. “How incredible is that?”
“Ace has added another rancher to his caseload and unless he needs to go to court or meet with his client, which happens much less than I had thought, he can be anywhere. Jacquie can help you if you need her to, since she only works for something to do.”
“No, she works because it fulfills her and she’s incredible at organization.” Cheyenne gave him a hard look. “And women like to make their own money.”
Quinn leaned over and kissed her full on the lips. “You’re right, I apologize.”
“What about the club? Some of its best members are leaving and Josh manages it.”
“Finally, we are where I started this conversation, about a year ago.”
She laughed. “Right, well go on then. Tell me your other news.”
“It looks like we are going to build a small club here, as in near Bozeman.”
“A real club, like The Sting?”
“Yep, calling it The Edge as in its legal name will be The Forest’s Edge. We should be able to open in about six to eight months if things go right.”
“Yes! I was so lonely for the club. Tell me what the plan is so far.”
It would be about a two-hour drive for Quinn and Cheyenne but they didn’t flinch at the extra miles. Josh went home with the okay to start the ball rolling.
Liam and Ciarán came over the next morning as Quinn and Cheyenne were eating breakfast.
“See there, Liam, I told you he would be milking this headache for all it was worth. He left the real work to the men of the family.”
“What are you blabbering about there, little brother?” asked Quinn in his blustery, horsing around voice.
“Well come and see for yourself. Don’t thank us, or even mention it. Ever,” added Liam dryly.
Quinn was led down the stairs to the basement, one brother in front and one in back. They weren’t taking any chances of him losing his balance.
“I don’t know what to say. Thank you and don’t you ever mention it again, unless you are interested in…”
“Nope.” Both men stepped back and shook their heads, looking down and away from their brother who was laughing.
“How did you know and how were you able to assemble them both properly?”
“We had the builder and the expert helping us,” Ciarán informed him.
“Ah. So do you have questions or are we good on this whole thing?”
“Nope, Josh was more informative than we ever needed and more than we ever want again.” Liam was already backing away from the equipment that Parker had added a Shibari stand and armchair for aftercare.
“Got it.” Quinn nodded. “And Cheyenne? How did she handle this?”
“She chewed us out at the hospital. She said it was our fault because we didn’t support you in your lifestyle, so you couldn’t ask for help.” Ciaran looked Quinn in the eye. “Man, I don’t condemn your lifestyle so long as you’re always safe with Cheyenne, and I have no doubt you will be. I’m not into it but fun in the bedroom is each couple’s choice of activities. But don’t ever refuse to ask for help because you think we might not understand.”
“Yeah, what he said. I’ll kick your ass if you ever do that again. Got it?” Liam was the tough older brother now. Quinn nodded.
“Cheyenne is no prissy girl. She told us to not mention it but we figured you would know that someone did it, so we wanted to tell you so she didn’t get in trouble. She was worried you were going to blame her for allowing us here and we wanted you to know she didn’t have a choice. We were already here.” Ciarán shrugged. “We were worried you would use this equipment on her.” The men chuckled. “Besides, we needed to have this talk.”
“We good, Bro?” Liam asked Quinn as he accepted back slaps from his brothers.
“Yep.”
As the brothers left the basement and on to their own work for the day, Quinn sat down at the table and pulled Cheyenne close. “You did all the right things, baby. Even when I stupidly wanted you not to do any of it, you did the right thing. I love you.”
“I love you too, so much. A wise man once said to me, ‘you’re my whole world. I cannot, will not allow you to take those types of chances with yourself.’ ”
“Hmm, you had better listen to that wise man, he says some good stuff. Now finish breakfast, because I have more good stuff to do to— I mean to show you.”
“Yes, sir,” she said with a soft giggle.
The End
Alyssa Bailey is a dyed in the wool Texan living in the beauty of Southeast Alaska with her husband, her youngest four (of eleven) children, two dogs and two cats. Her first memory of books was when her mother read to her as a small child. She began writing as soon as she could put letters together to form words. Her first story at the age of six was about a performing horse that ran away from the circus. As she got older and read more of a variety of books, she would say, “I can do better than that” and then rewrite them in her head. She was writing fanfiction before fanfiction was a 'thing'.
In high school and college, she won journalism and special recognition for her academic and fictional writing. Alyssa is a firm believer in all things spanking. She loves writing about domestic discipline and power exchanges between strong, intelligent women who are not afraid to make a stand and men confident enough to give them their space but Alpha enough to keep his woman safe, in spite of herself. Her characters predominately live in Regency England amongst lords and ladies, in the contemporary realm amongst men and women of the world, and all things Cowboy. Contact her, she loves to chat, and as always, have a Spankolicious day!
