“Anything for you Vi!” Lizzie hugged Violet.
“I made sure your two hotties looked extra delicious for you.” Violet teased.
“They are not my hotties.” Lizzie was quick to protest and then noticed the jokingly look in her eyes. Lizzie shook her head with a smile on her face. “Happily-ever-after looks good on you Sis.”
“Come on, at least give them a chance.”
“They don’t know I even exist unless they want something to drink and think I’m a waitress.” Lizzie tried not to smile. She had lived off those memories for over a week. “Now you have guests and I think your husband is looking for you.” Lizzie nodded over to where Nate was looking around.
“Yikes. I better go.” Violet turned to walk away but quickly turned back to Lizzie and hugged her tight. “You deserve a happily-ever-after as well. Love you Sis.” Violet said as she quickly walked away back towards Nate.
Colton was standing next to Tyler as they watched Violet with the woman she thought was perfect for them. “Are you sure about this Ty?” Colton asked. They had been together for years, but they wanted to have a woman to share as well.
“I don’t know. Not many people are open to taking on two Doms, especially when they are as different as both of us. Maybe Violet’s right. I say we at least test the waters. What is the worse that could happen?”
“We could both fall for her and she walk out like our last Sub.” Colton tensed up. They had fallen in love with their last Sub and she called her “safe word” and walked out of their lives. She disappeared, and they never heard another word from her again. It almost broke Colton and Tyler’s friendship with one another. It was only with the help of Nate did they both come back together. Colton loved Tyler and he knew that Tyler loved him as well.
“Then let’s do this.” Colton slapped Tyler on the back as they walked over to the woman that Violet had just left. Colton stepped up behind her. “Hello Elizabeth.” Colton’s deep voice said warmly. Violet jumped and whirled around to the two men. “Hi Little One.”
“Hi… um, hello Sirs.” She stood there shuffling her foot nervously, looking down. She could not believe that the two men that had been playing in her dreams nightly were actually talking to her, that they knew her name.
Tyler stepped up and lifted her chin. “Thank you for your show of respect Little One.” Tyler showed off his killer smile. “We’d like to offer to take you to dinner when you are finished with the wedding this evening.”
“Me? You want to take me to dinner Sirs?” Elizabeth was shocked as she looked between the two men, waiting for the punch line or for them to make fun of her like most guys she’s had in her life.
“Yes, we would like to take you to dinner. Discuss some… well…” Colton looked over to Tyler. He did not know what was wrong with him. There was something about the woman in front of him that drew him in and it scared him in a way. He was told that he had met this woman before, but he ran through several different scenarios, but he had never met her before. He would know this woman anywhere.
“What Mister uptight is trying to say is we are looking for a Submissive and we would like to discuss the possibility of a contract with you. We were told that you were perfect for our special needs.” Tyler said, a little unsure at the end.
“Told?” Elizabeth rolled her eyes. “Violet. Leave it to her to butt in.” She looked between the two guys. “What has Violet told you about me?”
“Nothing, except that you were perfect for us. We thought that we would choose for ourselves. If you’ll agree to dinner.”
Lizzie looked between the two guys again. She had been dreaming of having a family and people who loved her and by in her life since she was a girl. “I can’t promise anything but dinner at this point.”
“That’s all we ask Little One.” Colton and Tyler smiled.
“I should be done in about an hour if the schedule stays on task. The look of Nate, they’ll speed it up a bit.” Lizzie smiled as she looked over to her friend and Nate.
“We’ll be here. When you’re ready come find us.” Colton said and walked back towards the head table where he was about to give the Best Man speech.
“You just inspired him to get the ball rolling a tad faster.” Tyler teased. “See you soon.” Tyler touched her arm before moving to join Colton up on the stage.
Lizzie stood there a moment, trying not to jump for joy. She was going to live out her dreams even if for one dinner. She knew the moment they heard about her past that they wouldn’t keep her for long. But tonight, was her night. Pulling out her phone she dialed a familiar number. “Hey, I need your help. I have a date tonight… first date and I really don’t want to be in my logoed wedding shirt.” Listening to the other side of the line she smiled. “Perfect thanks Sis. I owe you one.” Hanging up Lizzie went back to work; giving the thumbs up to Violet after catching her looking over at her multiple times. It was like she could read her friends mind.
