His simple words pour warmth all through my body and it settles in right in my heart.
“I–I love you too.” A smile tilts my lips but I can’t manage to look at him. I don’t know why. I guess I’m afraid. The few people I’ve ever loved in this world have always been taken from me. It’s a terrifying and consuming sort of fear that threatens to smother out the excited feeling of love.
When he kisses me, that fear disappears.
It’s a gentle press of his lips against mine. He pulls back just slightly and when he kisses me once more, his tongue flicks against my mouth before my lips part and I kiss him deeper. The feel of his tongue slipping over mine has my legs spreading wider until his hips are firmly against my core.
His palm pushes slowly up my stomach. The light pressure of his hands on my body sends a shiver through me and I can’t help but shift my hips against his.
The mattress dips and rough fingertips skim along my jaw. Warm lips tease against my throat, and I hum from the feel of it as Link kisses me harder, locking our lips in place. A tingling pain bites through my lips from the force of his kiss, but the way his tongue flicks against mine washes out all other sensations.
I’m very aware that Nollix’s hand is lowering from my neck as his teeth rake across skin. Lower, his fingers travel. My thin shirt prevents the feel of his hands on my body but it doesn’t stop the heat of his touch from searing into me. Link shifts, making room for Nollix as his fingers trails down my body. Nollix’s big palm pushes against my breast, and I hum against Link’s mouth just as his hips start to rock hard against mine.
Somewhere, during the euphoric feeling of love and the consuming feeling of lust, logic sneaks into my mind.
I pull back from both of them, a heavy gasp falls between us. Their hooded attention holds on me, beckoning me while I try to grab ahold of that little starving piece of rational thought right now.
“Sorry,” I whisper quietly, my attention drifting toward Cameron, whose back is literally touching my arm. I’m grinding on Link and basking in Nollix while poor fucking Cameron is just trying to sleep.
Nollix’s lips skim my jaw. “Why are you sorry?” His breath fans along my ear and my lashes flutter from the feel of it.
No! Stay strong, Violence. Try not to let these sexy men distract you when you’re weakest beneath them.
“We—We’re not doing …” I pause before whispering in a hiss, “this.” With my eyes I gesture to the limited amount of space between the three of us.
Nollix smirks before laughing quietly. His teeth rake slowly across my skin, sending a shiver down my body.
“We could, though.” Another kiss is press to the curve of my neck as I start to shake my head back and forth.
Link’s thumb pushes slow circles over my hip.
“When we have sex,” his gaze bores into mine, “it won’t be with a room full of people, Vi.” His lips tease mine just lightly. “It won’t be hushed and repressed.” His words make me shift beneath him, my hips rocking slightly. “It’ll be wild and free.” Another slow kiss presses to my lips. “Just like you.”
His words make my heart pound to life with too many emotions that I can’t even begin to keep up with.Is this what love feels like?With all my confusing thoughts, I never pause to wonder why Nollix and Link are okay with sharing me between themselves.
In a weird way, I guess they always have.
