Page 37 of Lane

“I’ll make you feel good,” Lane said, releasing my hand and skating his palm under my shirt, burning a path to my chest.

I couldn’t resist him, either of them. Not with the way they looked at me or how their bodies angled toward mine, like I was the only one who could give them what they desired.

I swallowed thickly. Other people depended on me daily. My brother and I had each other’s backs, no matter what. I watched Jordan’s so he was always safe. This was a different kind of feeling with Lane and Alton. It was desire mixed with raw need, emotions, and so much damn stuff my chest ached with it. My body was strung tight. My dick hardened. I wanted them badly, but for some reason I didn’t picture it like this. That was my first mistake, trying to figure out how it would happen.

“Where’s your lube?” I asked Alton.

He walked around to the other side of the bed and grabbed it from the nightstand drawer, as well as a couple condoms.

“No,” Lane said when he saw them. “I don’t want to use them.”

“There are risks if we don’t,” Alton told him. “It’s safer this way.”

“That’s the doctor in you talking. Ray, when was the last time you were with someone?”

I had to think about it. “Maybe six months ago. It didn’t mean anything, and we used a condom.”

“Good. For me, well, you know. I’ve been tested since then and was good, plus, a condom was used. If I fuck around, I like to do it safely. What about you, Al?”

“I…” He held the foil packet between his fingers, twirling it in a circle. “Over a year ago and I’ve tested negative recently.”

“If it makes you comfortable, use it. The last thing I want is for either of you to have regrets, but just so you know, I don’t need you to put on a condom with me.”

“I don’t want to,” I said, running off my gut instinct. The thought of being bare in either of them had my dick twitching. All that heat, the idea of my cum flooding inside them. Sign me up for that.

Alton blew out a breath. “I’ve never gone bare with anyone.”

Turning on the bed, Lane crawled across it, careful to lift his leg gently as he did so. He kneeled on one leg, bringing his face closer to Alton’s. “Hey, look at me.”

I didn’t think I’d ever seen Alton so afraid. Maybe when I was shot and running a fever. Not since. Tears welled in his eyes.

Lane placed his hand on Alton’s chest. “I can feel your heart racing. Do you think we’re going to hurt you?”

He shook his head.

“Then what?”

“What if we do this and I’m not good enough, or you decide you want to be alone with Raiden? I’m nothing like him, or either of you, for that matter. You both live for danger, thrive in it. I like my life at my practice and the quiet of my home. You’re going to get bored with me.”

I couldn’t resist walking around the other side of the bed and coming up behind him to wrap my arms around Alton’s waist and rest my head on his. Alton took a shuddering breath, his body trembling beneath my touch.

How long had it been since I’d hoped I could touch him like this? Where I wondered if we’d ever have a relationship? If he’d see me as someone he wanted to spend time with outside of my appointments with him?

He fit perfectly against me, just like Lane did. I’d be damned if I let either of them go without a fight.

Lane spoke again, “Did you ever think we need you just as you are? We don’t have office jobs or ones where our hours are normal. Maybe we need your calm. You can be our grounding point. The person we go to when we feel like the world istoo damn much. We’ve seen and experienced a lot of shit, but we come through it stronger each time. That doesn’t mean we don’t feel it later on. The death, trauma, nightmares, whatever is happening. If you knew half of the shit I’d told Arden in my therapy sessions, you’d wonder what the fuck you’re doing with me. But I’m working through it.”

“I’m exactly where I want to be,” Alton said. “With you. With Raiden. For however long you’ll let me.”

“I’m not going to say eternity just yet. That’s too big too soon, but I can tell you, I only have eyes for you both. Now, I seem to remember something about fucking and multiple orgasms.” He grinned. “That last part might be wishful thinking.”

“You always surprise me.”

“Gotta keep you on your toes. Hand me the lube? At some point, this pill is going to kick in, and I have no idea what it will do, so let’s take advantage of me before I’m loopy.”

“We have to watch your leg.”

“Sure, Doc. Just don’t come on it, or else you’ll get the honor of changing the bandage.”
