Dimitri's P.O.V.

"Kaden.", I growled, sending his a glare.

"Fuck off Dimitri. You aren't in charge of me." I calmly stood up, grabbing his throat and laying him out on the couch,

"You really wanna talk to me like that Kaden?", I whispered, inches from his face. He swallowed hard,

"Get off of me.", he demanded shakily.

"No, I don't think I will. I think you need a lesson on who's in charge here and how this relationship works. We've discussed this and I've had to tell you to watch your attitude way too many times this week. When I need to be, I absolutely fucking am in charge of you. End of story."

"Dimitri I'm not your sub."

"You are when you need to be."

"Kneel." Kaden didn't move from the stove as I grabbed a handful of his hair, "Kaden I think I fucking told you to do something.", I growled. He sighed but knelt in front of me. "Hands."

"Dimitri-"

"Kaden now." His hands slowly moved behind his head. "Don't move a muscle.", I demanded before turning to Damien, who stared at us with wide eyes. I gestured for him to follow me as he scrambled up to do so. Once in our bedroom, I pointed at the bed, "Sit."

"Yes sir.", he chirped, quickly sitting down and focusing on the floor. I gently moved his head up,

"Hey, you're not in trouble."

"I-I'm not?"

"Should you be?"

"I-I don't think so."

"You haven't done anything that I know of. I just think we should talk about... that... because we haven't."

"Are-Are you okay?"

"Of course love. Why do you ask?"

"I-I've never seen you Dom Kaden.", he whispered, anxiously messing with his bracelet, "I-I-I thought maybe you-you needed more or-or didn't want me anymore-"

"Stop. That's not what this is Dami. Kaden needed some extra guidance. He's been disobedient and had a terrible attitude for a few weeks now and I got fed us with it. I told him yesterday that until he got it worked out in his brain that I was in charge of him too, he was to completely submit to me. But I didn't explain that to you or the girls and I wanted to. This doesn't mean Kaden is any less in charge of you guys or any less of a Dom, it just means he needs structure and discipline too sometimes. But I understand that it can be really difficult and kinda scary to see someone who's in charge of you submit to someone else. And difficult for you to see it because you've been my sub for so long."

"It's different with Rosa and Roxy. I know that's sexist or whatever-"

"It's not. You're right, it is different. But I am not replacing you with Kaden. Love, you were enough for me for years and that won't ever change. I think it's fun for both of us to switch it up sometimes too though, right?"

"Yeah I just- I dunno."

"I know you feel like I'll drop you or replace you. You always have. But it hasn't happened in seven years, right?" He nodded, laying his head on my shoulder,

"Yeah."

"Before I met you, I saw having a sub as a job. They signed a contract, I trained them for a few months, maybe a year, then I sent them off to whoever they'd spend their life with. I never thought I'd have the same sub for so long and I never thought I could truly fall in love with them. Then I met you. And my life has been absolutely incredible ever since." He smiled,

"You're welcome." I laughed a little, kissing his head,

"We'll talk more later, okay? I should go deal with Kaden." He nodded as I stood up, only for him to grab my hand,

"I love you."

"I love you too."

~~~~

"Hey, you're alright.", I said softly, crouching next to the bed. Kaden shook his head, covering his face with his hands. I gently moved them down, "Kaden, please just stop fighting it. I forgive you. It's okay. You're allowed to be vulnerable."

"I-I hate it.", he whispered.

"Love you have it because of what happened with your dad. You don't hate it because it makes you uncomfortable or anything. You hate it because of your past." I stood up, sitting by his feet, "K, I think a big part of this whole situation is you not being able to move on. You don't feel like you can be vulnerable or submit because it scares you that you'll get hurt again. And I understand that, really I do. But you won't get hurt here. And I really need us to get past this."

"I-I know."

"I'm willing to spend as much time as we need in this situation. I want you to be comfortable in this relationship, but I also need you to understand your place. I... had never had relations with a switch before I met you. I always thought it would be too difficult trying to find the lines between when I needed to be their Dom and when they needed to be someone else's and I have never been a sub, so I knew I wouldn't be able to fulfill that role for them. I never considered being in a poly relationship. But I'm glad I did. This has been the absolute best time of my life and I've never been this happy. You've given me a family K. I feel like I'm a huge part of something I never thought I'd have or want badly enough to fight for but I do now. I love your kids and your people and all of us. This is truly the happiest I've ever been."

"Me too. I'm just worried I'm gonna start blurring lines or not be able to get past all of the shit from before." I moved to his other side, laying next to him as he rolled over onto my chest,

"What lines?"

"Like that I'll end up being more submissive and not being able to handle the others. I don't wanna put all the pressure on you to take care of all of us. And I like taking care of the others too. I'm just worried I'll change completely."

"I don't think you will. It's possible you'll want to be more submissive more often, but I think you'll still want to be the opposite too."

"I'm worried about Mia."

"Why?"

"I've always taken care of her and been a strong figure in her life since we met. I-I don't want her to see me as a doormat or some shit."

"Kaden being a sub is not being a doormat and does not make you weak. You really think the girls and Damien are weak?"

"No of course not but-but-"

"But nothing. There's no difference. I feel like I've taken a parental role in Mia's life and if there are times when you feel like you need someone to step up and take charge of her because you aren't in the headspace to do so, I'm more than happy to do that. You trust me with her and I'm incredibly grateful for it. I don't think she'd have a single issue with you not taking care of certain situations and giving them to me. And if you want, I can talk to her about all of this."

"Would you?"

"Of course."
