My King's Seraglio

EPILOGUE
Tobey stared at the sight in front of him, at the two beautiful men he loved more than his own life. The High King lay on his back on the floor as he lifted his—their child up high before bringing him down. Joey laughed as his father repeated the motions, then squealed in delight. Both had grown closer during the few months Tobey had been back in the Radcliffe residence. The first word out of Joey's mouth had been "Dada" and it occurred while Adam bathed him. Slightly jealous that Joey's first word had been for Adam, his envy soon faded. The look of wonderment and barely concealed tears when Adam looked at his son made it impossible to stay upset. Besides, Tobey had another chance to get their child's first word the next time round.
Tobey stroked his stomach gently, feeling the slight protrusion. Another miracle borne out of love. He would tell his husband soon. Perhaps after Adam made love to him again during the night. Tobey needed it rough one more time before Adam reverted to gentle sex. His husband could be very protective of him and the people he loved. Adam looked over to Tobey, smiling wide, Joey snuggled closely in his arms and Tobey grinned back, grateful for all the people in his life. He might not be living the dream that he'd envisioned three years ago. But he lived a bigger dream now. A dream filled with peace, laughter and love. Lots of love.
And that was more than enough.
