Chapter 6
When I finally opened my eyes, Ben was still hovering over me, his own eyes wide with amazement. His arms began to shake from the effort and he finally moved, rolling off me and laying on the bed staring up at the ceiling. Andre shifted beneath me.
“Slowly, Kitty Kat. I’d like to feel you for a second all to myself,” he said. He pushed back into me with a couple lazy thrusts, before extracting his flagging cock and releasing me. A very vivid emptiness was left behind now that both of them had vacated my body.
Andre gently rolled me off him and disappeared through a doorway on the other side of the room. I lay on my side, staring at my brother.
“Did you mean everything you said?” I asked softly. I wasn’t a very trusting person, as a general rule. In fact, it was Ben’s fault that I wasn’t, after all the cruel pranks he used to pull on me when we were younger. I generally gave as good as I got, but his confessions tonight had added an unexpected layer of perspective to our entire childhood.
“I think it’s the first time I haven’t lied to you,” he said. He turned his head to look at me. For the first time in my life, he looked terrified.
“Jesus, Ben. Have you been holding this in you all these years?”
“Do you hate me now? More than you did before, I mean.”
I reached out a tentative hand and placed it on his chest, trying to ignore the way I shook as I did. He reached up and gripped my hand tightly.
“I guess I wish I’d known,” I said.
He let out a shaky laugh. “It’s not like we could’ve done much before. I just knew when the idea of a perfect woman came up that you were it for me. It kind of broke my heart that you couldn’t stand to be around me.”
“What about Andre?”
“He’s the perfect man for me.”
I raised an eyebrow. His bold declaration made my esteem of him rise a few notches.
“He is…amazing,” I said, remembering every little subtle piece of Andre’s part in the game thus far. He was good at being the director in the background, handing cues to the both of us. I kind of wanted to reward him for it. Give him the focus he deserved.
“I love you both,” Ben said softly. “Is that fucked up? I mean, what would Mom say if she knew what a fucking pervert I am? I’m in love with two people…a gorgeous black man for one…and my own sister.”
He looked so tortured by the revelation my heart ached.
“Ben, sweetie…” I climbed on top of him and stared down into those big blue eyes I’d always hated seeing but kind of loved like crazy just now. “For one thing, Andre is a work of art. Loving him is a no-brainer. Why you’d love me is confusing and makes no fucking sense. We’ve always hated each other.”
“Maybe you hated me. I always loved you. I just hated that you didn’t love me back.”
I kissed him instead of crying on him. My beautiful brother was apparently capable of saying very sweet things that totally disarmed me. His arms wrapped around me and the world tilted. When he had me on my back he raised up and looked into my eyes.
“I’ve always loved you and I always will. Please stay with us?”
“Us?” I asked.
The thundering rumble of a voice came from across the room. “He means me.”
I turned my head to look. Andre stood entirely naked, leaning against the doorframe of the bathroom. The dim candlelight gleamed on his smooth, dark muscles. He shifted to grip the doorframe behind him, leaving his entire torso uncovered. The light played down his body all the way to his flaccid cock that hung like a heavy weight between his legs. The man was truly beautiful. And now he seemed like he was hanging on my answer as much as my brother was.
I had no idea how to respond. The pair had just banged me silly and now they were both asking for more. None of the other men I’d had sex with had showed any more interest in me than “let’s do this again sometime.”
“What do you want? Just to fuck sometimes?”
I directed the question at Andre, but Ben answered. “No. We want you. Kind of forever.”
“Kind of forever…Jesus, Ben, that sounds…” How did it sound? Incredibly romantic and sweet. My brain imploded a little at that idea. Romantic and sweet weren’t part of my own dialog. I hated that shit. Yet I wanted to cry and hug Ben for suggesting it at all. The fact that he thought about me that way melted my heart. I was surprised I hadn’t turned into a puddle of goo already.
“How does it sound, Kat?”
I glanced between him and Andre, thinking. But who was I kidding, really?
“It sounds kind of perfect.”

About Ophelia Bell
From fantasy erotica to sci-fi and contemporary, exploring the baser urges of the human psyche is what gets Ophelia Bell going. There’s nothing more beautiful than two people (or three, or four… or more!) lost in the throes of ecstasy. Skin on skin, urgent whispered pleas, the scent of sex and the salty taste of sweat. Nothing is more yummy than a good, juicy erotic story. If you have the same mindset you’ll love reading these books as much as she loves writing them.
Ophelia Bell spends her time in sunny Southern California with her very supportive husband and four attention-whoring cats.
