(For clarification this doesn't involve any bdsm. Just pure longing between this three men. I hope you enjoy this guys.)

Lucian's confusion deepened as he struggled to decipher the enigmatic couple he served. Despite his experience attending to their needs, he found himself perplexed by their dynamics. Mr. Donovan, in particular, was an enigma - stern, reserved, and calculated, yet possessing a depth that hinted at a softer side.

As Lucian presented the meal, his gloved hands clasped behind his back, he asked, "How does the food taste, Donovan Sir?"

Finn's warm smile spread, lines creasing around his eyes as he savored a spoonful. "Quite lovely, you never cease to amaze me."

However, Dominic Donovan's critique swiftly followed. "Could have been better."

As a renowned chef and restaurateur, Donovan's opinions carried weight, and Lucian had grown accustomed to his candid feedback. Still, it grated on him that Donovan never offered a compliment, always finding room for improvement. Lucian's thoughts threatened to stray, but he refocused on the present.

Just then, Finn intervened, his voice gentle. "Dom."

Donovan turned, his expression unyielding. "What? I'm a chef. If something isn't fit for my palate, I'll comment."

His words conveyed a sense of professional obligation, but Lucian detected a hint of defiance, as if Donovan guarded against showing appreciation, leaving Lucian to wonder about the intricacies of their relationship.

"It's alright," Lucian said, his tone resigned. "I'll get better."

"Please do," Dominic replied, his expression unyielding.

With his task complete, Lucian excused himself and retreated into the kitchen to tidy up. Finn set his fork aside and turned to his husband, watching as Lucian disappeared from view.

"Yet you still look at him like that," Finn observed, his voice low and thoughtful, once Lucian was out of earshot.

Dominic's eyes faltered, and he opened his mouth to respond, but Finn cut him off.

"I—" Dominic began.

"We've talked about this," Finn interrupted, his tone firm but gentle.

The unspoken understanding between them hung in the air. For months, they had discussed their feelings about Lucian, the young man who had entered their lives as a server at Dominic's restaurant. Three years into their relationship, Finn had been captivated by Lucian's striking appearance, while Dominic's interest ran deeper, his gaze lingering on the man with an intensity that made Finn's heart flutter with concern.

Finn's eyes locked onto Dominic's, searching for reassurance. "We agreed," Finn continued, his voice softening, "we wouldn't do anything about them."

Since their agreement, Finn and Dominic had struggled to reconcile their desires with societal norms. They couldn't deny their attraction to Lucian, who had brought vibrancy into their lives with his effortless charm. His presence had transformed their home, elevating mundane tasks like cooking and cleaning into enjoyable experiences.

Their feelings for Lucian defied convention, and they knew the world wouldn't understand. Despite their efforts to rationalize, they couldn't shake the depth of their longing. Dominic, typically reserved, concealed his emotions behind a stoic facade. However, those familiar with him recognized the subtle language of his eyes, which betrayed his true feelings.

Finn was well-versed in reading Dominic's silent cues and saw the unspoken affection lurking beneath his husband's composed exterior. This unspoken understanding created a delicate tension, as they navigated the complexities of their desires and the boundaries of their relationship.
