He doesn’t answer right away, and I feel the way his body tenses just slightly beneath her.
I squeeze his hand, grounding him the same way he anchors us. “You heard her,” I say lightly, but there’s a thread of quiet certainty beneath the words. “No getting rid of us now.”
His gaze shifts to mine, something vulnerable but unguarded in his eyes.
“Good,” he finally whispers, the word barely more than an exhale.
I press a lingering kiss to Sophie’s temple, letting the moment stretch. Then, slowly, I drop to the floor and scoot closer to Kai, brushing my mouth against his in a kiss that’s soft and steady. Not rushed. Just… there.
Sophie hums between us, eyes still closed but a lazy grin tugging at her lips. “Thanks for the video, by the way. I will enjoy the precedent you both set with that. The possibilities are endless.”
Kai groans softly against my lips. “Don’t encourage him,” he mutters.
I chuckle, deepening the kiss just enough to hear the soft catch in his breath. “Too late for that,” I murmur.
Sophie’s arm slides over Kai’s waist, pulling him closer as if she can’t stand the idea of any space between us.
And for the first time in weeks, I realize, neither can I.
CHAPTER FORTY
THE WORSHIP
Sophie
“That’s it. Good girl.Suck.”
Kai’s words reverberate through me, sending a sensation of white-hot heat straight down to my pulsing core. His voice is calm, steady, but there’s an edge to it, like he’s holding back something darker. Something that I’ve desperately wanted to see for months now, since he told me about the kinds of things he likes to do in these scenes.
I hollow my cheeks around him, tongue sliding over the smooth, sensitive head of his cock as he tightens his grip in my hair, holding me just shy of where I know he wants me. His restraint makes me ache. I feel it in the way his thighs tense beneath my hands, in the slight tremble of his breath when I hum around him.
And I definitely feel it when I suction around him, pushing him up against the roof of my mouth and making his whole body shudder.
Behind me, Julian’s eyes burn into every inch of me, following the slow drag of my mouth along Kai’s length. I canfeel his gaze lingering where I’m stretched out over the sheets, bare and exposed, every subtle shift of my body on full display.
I pull back slowly, letting my lips drag over Kai’s cock until I’m barely kissing the tip, meeting his gaze as I do. His pupils are blown wide, dark gray swallowing the molten silver flecks in his eyes. There’s something dangerous lurking beneath that calm exterior, and I want to pull it out of him.
“Look at you,” Kai murmurs, brushing his thumb over the corner of my mouth, collecting the moisture gathered there. “So eager to please. Such a good, little servant.”
My skin flushes at the praise, but I can’t ignore the way Julian shifts behind me, the faint rustle of his clothes betraying how much he enjoys watching this.
“Isn’t she?” Kai asks, though his eyes never leave mine. He tilts my chin up, pressing his thumb lightly into the hinge of my jaw. “Our little dove. Always so willing to sin.”
Julian chuckles from behind me, low and rough. “She does love when you take control.”
Kai’s grip tightens, just for a second, before he releases me completely, sitting back against the headboard with an infuriating amount of calm. He strokes his cock lazily, watching as I stay kneeling between his legs, waiting for his next instruction.
The air feels thick, and Julian’s hand brushing my lower back with the pads of his fingers makes anticipation curl low in my stomach.
“On top of me,” Kai says softly, and I obey without hesitation, crawling over him until I’m straddling his lap, his cock pressing hot and heavy against the slick heat between my legs.
His hands drift slowly down my sides, his touch featherlight, making me shiver. When he reaches my hips, he lingers, holding me just above him, not letting me sink down, no matter how much I want to.
“Patience,” Kai whispers. One hand comes to the back of my neck, and he pulls me close to his face. His lips brush the shell of my ear, and the heat of his breath sends a violent shiver down my spine. “Good things come to those who wait.”
Behind me, Julian’s voice is soft but firm. “I don’t think she wants to wait.”
Kai hums, and I swear I see the faintest smirk tug at his lips. “She doesn’t have a choice.”
