Sawyer (Alluring Indulgence #7) Page 34
Author: Nicole Edwards

“Well, you know how it is. We like to show up when you least expect it.”

“How’re things goin’ with Devotion?” Sawyer inquired. It’d been a while since he’d had the chance to chat with Luke, especially face-to-face. A year or so ago, Luke had encountered some issues with his other club—Club Destiny—and had separated the bar from the secret fetish club that was open to members only. Since that time, Devotion had grown in members and last Sawyer had heard, things were looking up for Luke.

“Good. Maybe not as well as you’re doing here though.”

Sawyer followed Luke’s gaze around the room. It was still hard to believe there were so many people there, many of whom Sawyer had never seen before. It seemed that for the last few weeks, they’d had a significant amount of familiar faces in the place, but today, it looked as though Zane might’ve gone on a mission to bring in new folks.

Shit.

Speaking of new folks, Sawyer’s gaze landed on a very familiar person. Two of them, actually. They were somewhat hidden in an alcove, but Sawyer didn’t need to be a detective to figure out just who they were.

“Is that . . . ?”

“Jeff Endsley. The sheriff of our mighty fine town,” Sawyer finished for him. “What the hell is he doin’ here?”

“I invited him.” Sawyer turned to see Kaleb standing beside him. “Technically, Mack requested the invite, and apparently he brought Jeff along with him.” Kaleb turned to Luke. “Luke, how’re you?”

While the two men said their greetings, Sawyer kept his eyes pinned to the pair in the corner. That was when he saw . . .

“Are they . . . ?” Kaleb stopped midsentence.

“Together?” Sawyer mentioned. “Looks that way.” He wasn’t sure that was completely true, but based on how close they were standing, he’d say it was a damn good assumption.

“Damn,” Luke chimed in.

“Who’d a thought,” Kaleb whispered.

Certainly not Sawyer, that’s who. His eyes weren’t playing tricks on him as he watched Mack and Jeff walk through the main play area, toward the section of the hotel that contained the private rooms that guests could utilize during their stay. They weren’t doing anything other than walking beside one another, but even Sawyer could sense the attraction between the two men.

“Did you know they were . . . ?” Luke asked.

“Gay?” Kaleb questioned. “I had no idea.”

Sawyer didn’t respond because he didn’t know what to say. How the hell had either man been on this earth that long and not let on that they were gay? Not that Sawyer gave a shit about their sexual preferences—to each his own and all that shit—but still . . . It just didn’t seem feasible that they’d managed to make it this far in life and no one knew.

He wondered whether Kennedy knew. Surely she did. And honestly, now that Sawyer thought about it, it explained so much. But it also presented other questions, such as where Kennedy’s mother was. If her father was gay, then how . . . ?

“Well, I gotta get back to the dog,” Kaleb informed them. “Sawyer here left me dog sitting and I pawned him off on Zane for a little while. Good to see you, Luke. If y’all are in town for a few days, maybe we can all get together for dinner.”

“Works for me,” Luke told Kaleb. “We’ll be here through the weekend. Hannah’s staying with Sierra’s mother, so we figured we’d take a short vacation before the holidays kicked into full gear.”

“Are you gonna have time to stop by and see Travis?”

“Sierra wouldn’t let me miss that,” Luke said sheepishly. “So, yeah. We’re gonna stop by and see the baby. If I’m not careful, Sierra will be knocked up by the end of our stay.”

Kaleb laughed. “It’s in the water, I’m tellin’ you. Anyway, I’ll work on putting somethin’ together for dinner,” Kaleb said. “Catch ya later.”

Sawyer turned his attention back to Luke, trying not to think about the two men who had surprised him with their attendance at the resort.

“Well, I better get back to Sierra and Cole. They’ll leave me out if I’m gone too long. And if she’s gonna get pregnant again, I’m gonna be the one doin’ the honors.”

Sawyer laughed, imagining Cole and Sierra getting busy somewhere else in the club. It wasn’t hard to imagine because Sawyer had been around the threesome several times and it seemed that they all three managed to get in time together whenever they could. Based on what he’d learned from Travis on the nature of that sort of relationship, it was every man—or woman—for himself when it came to finding time in a day to spend with the person you loved.
