"Finding out where she wants to take me. I asked her to choose somewhere she’d enjoy."
"You didn’t suggest anywhere?" Nyx asked.
"I’m the tourist here. Besides, you heard how much she had to say about her hair. Imagine getting her started on somewhere she loves."
Aria’s fingers worked over his scalp, and he closed his eyes with a contented sigh.
"I’d like that. Just listening to her get carried away explaining things. Hopefully she’ll have fewer complaints about me by then."
Nyx smiled and kissed his chest again.
"Pretty romantic, actually," Luna admitted. "I take back most of what I said about your Casanova credentials."
"Most?"
"You still got three girlfriends for free."
"Free?" Aria exclaimed. "I am an extremely high-maintenance girlfriend."
"True," Kaiden, Luna, and Nyx agreed in perfect sync.
"..." Aria pinched his cheek. Kaiden caught her wrist and grinned up at her. She leaned over him until her silver hair curtained their faces, then kissed him upside down while Luna and Nyx watched with matching smiles.
When Aria finally drew back, her lips were pink and her eyes had gone soft.
"I love you, Kai."
"I love you too, my beautiful moon."
He turned to kiss Nyx. "I also love my space babe."
Then he pulled Luna up by her ass and kissed her until her smug expression dissolved into breathless happiness.
"And I love even my chaotic gremlin."
"Did he just dare say ’even’...?" Luna nuzzled the fresh bite on his chest.
"I love you too, asshole."
...
The next morning, after breakfast, Yunohana stood before the mirror in her dressing room while Kaiden’s five lovers inspected the clothes she had laid out for her date.
Alexandra had joined them with a tray of tea. She set it beside the mirror and remained to help, smiling as Bastet held a pale blue dress against Yunohana’s front.
"This color is lovely on you. How does the shoulder feel?"
"Much better. I can dress myself today without assistance."
"A shame," Luna remarked from beside the open wardrobe. "We’re very helpful."
Yunohana glanced at the garment dangling from her fingers.
"Miss Luna, that is a slip."
"Yeah?"
"It goes beneath a dress."
"Seems wasteful."
Calypso laughed softly as she examined the blue dress Bastet had chosen.
"This one leaves her neck bare. Darling will like that."
"Mm. And this waist..." Bastet held the fabric against Yunohana, studying her reflection. "Would you try it? I want to see how the skirt falls."
Yunohana accepted the dress, pleased by their attention despite the embarrassment of being its subject.
Yesterday she had worried that they would resent her. This morning they were debating which of her clothes would make their man look at her longest.
She could hardly believe how happy that made her.
When she emerged from behind the dressing screen in the blue dress, Bastet approached to straighten the fabric at her waist.
Alexandra offered a seat at the mirror. Yunohana sat, and Aria gathered her hair clear of the neckline.
"Oh, now that’s sexy- I mean extremely tasteful," Calypso corrected herself.
Yunohana looked at herself, then at the women reflected around her.
"I am rather fond of this one," Yunohana admitted, smoothing the skirt with visible pleasure. "The neckline is a little daring for me, though."
"Such are the sacrifices us women make for love." Nyx patted her shoulder. "You’ll survive."
"That remains to be seen," Yunohana murmured, admiring her reflection.
Luna studied her from the wardrobe.
"What about the underwear?"
Yunohana’s smile faltered.
"What about it?"
"You picked something hot, right?"
"We are going on a date, Miss Luna."
"Exactly."
"I have no intention of showing him my underwear."
Nyx sipped her tea beside the mirror.
"You can still enjoy knowing you look lovely underneath."
Yunohana looked from her to Luna, whose expression suggested she was willing to discuss the matter for as long as necessary.
"My underwear is perfectly lovely."
"Oh?" Luna perked up. "How lovely?"
"That is a private matter."
"You can’t say that and expect me to stop being interested!"
Yunohana folded her hands in her lap, attempting to recover some dignity while Aria combed her hair.
