Millie turned on the seat to face Nick. He looked slightly apprehensive at what she might ask. They were silent for a few a while as Millie let the information about Gabriel sink in. Her  Gabriel. How could he have suffered so much tragedy and still be the be funny, beautiful man he was? Her heart was breaking for him, and not only Gabriel but Nick as well. Nick who held everything together, what heartbreak had he suffered?"So," she asked, wanting to change the subject slightly. "If you were both happy with just women before, why and how are you and Gabe in a sexual relationship?" She asked after a few minutes of getting both their feelings under control.Nick smiled and shook his head. " I'm attracted to men, well, some men. I always have been, and women too, it's..." Nick looked at the sky for an answer as he watched a bird swooping in the sky. " freedom, to not have to choose the gender of your lover. As for Gabriel, I've known him since we were seventeen. We

It was hot in bed, and Millie turned over trying to find a cold patch, it was more difficult in this bed, as it wasn't as big as the one at home she had more room of her own there. Here she was somewhat hemmed in, Nick on one side and Gabriel on the other. She got comfortable again putting her arm out of bed to cool off a bit and moved her legs.Opening her eyes, she faced Gabriel. Millie studied him carefully, his eyes were closed, and his lashes were thick dark scimitars, why did men always have the longest lashes? Her gaze travelled further down his face. She could see that his stubble had g

The concierge watched, as Nick Henderson and Gabriel Swann escorted their delightful lady friend across the foyer of the hotel. She was beautiful and had an innocent charm that would have his countrymen giving very long second glances."Mademoiselle Ashton," he bowed over her hand. "Enchante," he murmured.He turned to Nick, "I have ordered the best limousine for you, Sir," he raised his hand

The car pulled up in the forecourt of the castle, Millie looked around, and she was quite entranced, it looked so ancient. She was dying to find out the history of it. Italians of the Medici period had this urge to kill and then ask questions later, and with a smile, she wondered if Nick had any Italian ancestry. The gate, wooden and massive, was attached to the stone walls with three-foot iron hinges, and the door, decorated with iron studs was the first sight to repel visitors. Millie couldn't see a bell or a chain to pull so she took hold of one of the twisted iron handles and pushed the door open.The door creaked but swung open quickly, presenting Millie with a courtyard full of greenery, and stone archways, giant ornate stone planters and Millie could see lanterns for when the sun went down. It would look like an enchanted forest. She could imagine playing here as a child, and there were so many places to hide. She walked through the greenery and under the archway looki

"What the hell? Did you hear that?" Nick looked at Gabriel, "Millie?"Gabriel shouted, "Millie!"There came a wavering cry. "Gabe, Nick?"They ran down the hill skidding as the stones under their feet flew in the air. She was sitting on the track, waiting for them. Gabriel reached her first, and he gathered her up in his arms."Oh Millie." he breathed, "Oh baby, we thought we'd lost you."Millie burst into tears of relief she clung to Gabriel's neck. Nick put his arms around them and held them both tightly. He'd never felt quite so emotional over a woman, and this was all he'd ever wanted to have these two people in his life, Millie and Gabe and to love them forever.They carried her up the steep hill between them, taking it in turns to hold her. They were soon at the top, and Nick brought Millie into the bathroom so they could attend to her injuries. Nick sat her on the bathroom counter and examined her bruised and swollen knees and the bla
