His hands left my hips and my body fell limp against the couch. There was no reason to hold me down anymore, I was going nowhere.
He gently untangled my hand from his hair and I watched through half-lidded eyes as he wiped his mouth off with the back of his hand. I felt like I should have been bothered by that, embarrassed even, but I couldn't drum up enough emotion to give a shit. I felt boneless in a way I had only felt when I'd been with Dash before. Self-induced orgasms were alright, but they sucked in comparison to the ones other people could give you.
Quinton trailed a hand down between my breasts, his fingertips brushing over my skin in a gentle caress. It went down the middle of my stomach, past my belly button and stopped at my pubic bone.
"So fucking pretty," he whispered in awe.
I was glad he thought so. Still...
I reached out toward him and murmured, "Come here. You're too far away."
He let me pull him to my body as my legs fell down, my feet coming off of the couch and landing on the floor.
His lips came back to mine and he tasted different now. Sweeter, tangier. It was the taste of myself on his lips and there was a part of me that worried why I wasn't shocked or disgusted by the fact I was tasting myself for the first time, but oddly enough it didn't bother me in the slightest.
His fingers slid through my wetness, gently probing at my entrance. I sucked in a sharp breath as something soft, yet hard and hot brushed against me intimately.
"Does it hurt?" I asked. "Because of the piercing?"
He pressed a kiss to my lips as the head of his cock pushed inside my body.
"No, baby, it won't hurt. I'd never do anything to hurt you. You have to know that by now."
I did. I trusted Quinton completely.
I pulled his head back down to mine, and kissed with all the passion and love I had inside me for him as he slid inside the rest of the way.
Quinton held my face in his hands with his forehead pressed to mine in an incredibly sweet gesture as he moved inside of me. I lifted my thighs around his hips and wrapped my legs around him.
He looked at me with eyes full of love and devotion while he made love to me. Over and over again he moved inside me, just to draw back almost all the way out and thrust his hips back inside again. We were both panting and breathing heavily when my orgasm crashed over me for the second time. I cried out as it moved through me, tearing its way out. Quinton shoved his face in my neck and groaned as his hips stilled in their movements. We both came together and I held him tighter to my body, my nails digging into his back, likely leaving marks behind, maybe even making him bleed.
He nuzzled his face into my neck and sweetly whispered, "Love you, baby. So fucking much it scares the shit out of me."
Every time he said the words I wanted to snatch them out of the air and clutch them to my chest, never letting them go, like they were the most precious thing I had ever heard in my entire life.
"I love you too," I whispered back, and I knew they were words I would never get tired of saying to him, because the look they earned me in return wasn't something I would ever get tired of seeing from him.
Chapter Twenty-Two
I raised my hand above the door and knocked softly. It was mid-afternoon and neither of them had yet to make an appearance downstairs. If they were sleeping, I didn't want to wake them up. I knew what it was like to have nightmares chase you all throughout the night, things you just couldn't seem to escape, no matter how hard and fast you ran.
Abel often times slept with the lights on because he couldn't sleep in the dark. Their parents had died in a horrible, terrible accident and both twins had been plagued by sorrow and nightmares ever since. It seemed worse for my Pepper twin.
Abel had horrible nightmares and avoided watching movies about water. He was traumatized by it because their parents had died in a plane crash that had gone down in the water. Lots of people had been eaten by sharks.
The door opened and my Salt twin stood there, half naked, his white hair mussed up and standing in every which way. His face was slightly poofy and I could tell he'd been asleep for a very long time in order for his appearance to be the way it was.
"Hey, pretty girl," he said in a thick voice. "What brings you to our door?"
"Who is it?" Abel called out in a voice very similar to his twin’s. "Tell them to go away so we can go back to bed."
I smiled up at Addison. "Is he always this charming when he first wakes up?" I asked in a sweet voice. It must have carried through the room and to the other twin, because the next thing I knew the door was opened the rest of the way and my Pepper twin stood beside my Salt one. He was also shirtless like his brother and I couldn't help but drop my eyes to his chest and drag them down his body.
"I think she's eye fucking you, twin," Addison whispered in a shocked voice.
"Yeah," Abel said in voice full of pride, "she totally is. It's adorable."
My cheeks heated up and I snapped my head up, aiming for direct eye contact instead of looking... other places.
"I wasn't eye fucking you," I lied.
The problem with my lies was that they were never really believable and I always seem to suck at it. At least when it came to lying face to face. I could actually lie fairly well over the phone. Unless I was speaking to either Quinton or Rain, they could always tell the difference.
The twins both laughed at me and my face grew even redder.
"I wasn't," I lied some more.
"Get in here, pretty girl," Abel ordered, as he grabbed my hand and dragged me into their bedroom. The door closed behind me before I could voice a protest.
"Guys," I said as Abel pulled me into his chest, his forehead going to rest against mine. "I didn't come here for this."
Heat hit my back, the delicious kind that always came with the touch of one of them, letting me know Addison was close and closing in by the second.
Arms wrapped around my waist from behind as Addison pressed his front into my body. They were so big that I was entirely cocooned in their embrace, the outside world having fallen away because I couldn't even see it around their big bodies.
Soft lips pressed to mine and I jumped. My eyes flew open and I hadn't even realized I'd closed them until I was met with the shock of Abel's lips on mine.
His tongue swept out, gliding across my bottom lip, and immediately I opened my mouth to him. A little happy moan escaped me as he slid his tongue inside and kissed me for real.
My arms went around his neck as I kissed him back, hungrily, greedily even, trying to drink as much of him in as I could.
Lips grazed the side of my throat, making my nipples immediately harden.
I turned my head to the side, breaking the kiss and breathing hard. Addison continued to trail soft kisses down my throat as Abel's hands came up to my face and he cupped my cheeks.
"Really," I panted. "This is not what I came here for. I had a reason."
I did have a reason, didn't I? I swear there was something I needed to do, but my brain seemed to be in a bit of a fog at the moment, clouded over with lust.
"You didn't come here so we could have our wicked way with you?" Addison asked in a voice full of fake hurt.
I really hadn't, I knew that much for certain. My brain was still trying to play catch up with my body and the fact I'd not only had sex with Dash, but now Quinton as well. Just because I'd had sex with two people absolutely did not mean I was ready to have sex with two people at the same time, because there was no way I was ready for that. I wasn't sure I'd ever be ready for that. They were a package deal though, so eventually I had to wrap my brain around it. It wasn't likely to happen any time soon, because I had very stupidly Googled some things that had turned out to be slightly scary and I couldn't help but be mad at myself because I had been too stupid to think about how actual sex with them would work out.
I had gone down a very scary, perverted rabbit hole with my good buddy, Google. I had very innocently looked up threesomes and clicked
on images. Going to Google for my problems and to absolve my curiosity had been my first mistake. My second mistake had been reading some of the captions from the photos. My third and final mistake I'd made with my no longer friend, Google, had been looking up images of double penetration. I had been scarred for life and was pretty sure I wasn't ever going back again.
It was one thing if you had a hole for everyone's... cocks. It was an entirely different thing when they stuck both in the same hole. That shit looked painful and I was fairly certain that no matter the amount of love I had for them, my Salt and Pepper twins would never ask for and receive that. I knew I needed to talk to them about it eventually so that we could do the adult-like thing and discuss what we were comfortable with and what we weren't. I figured it would be something I really needed to do with them, because there were two of them and our relationship would never be normal. We would need to be open and honest between the three of us for it all to work out peacefully.
I sucked in a sharp breath and blurted out in a rush, "I don't think I'm ready to have sex with the both of you at the same time. It's actually kind of... scary to think about."
I snapped my mouth shut and probably would have run away from the both of them if they hadn't been surrounding me and holding on so tightly. Their arms only got tighter after hearing my confession. They weren't going anywhere and I wasn't either, because they were holding me in place, keeping me from running away screaming.
"You don't have to have sex with us, pretty girl," Addison mumbled against my throat. "If you're not ready then you're not ready and that's okay with us."
"Totally," Abel spoke softly with his face pressed against my neck, the side his brother didn't already have his face in, of course. "We'd never push you and we're willing to wait however long it takes for you to be ready."
Did they not know I had sex with Dash? I wasn't even going to think about Quinton, because nobody knew about that yet and I wanted to keep it that way for at least a few days. Sometimes it sucked that there were never any real secrets between my coven, unless they were secrets the guys were keeping from me, that is. I understood the need for openness but still, sometimes I just needed a little time to process everything before everyone else found out about it.
"What is it that you're so afraid of?" Addison asked in soft voice.
I frowned. Now I'd done it. I was always preaching honesty and absolutely could not lie to either of my twins.
"Well," I drawled, as my wide eyes looked everywhere but at Abel's vibrant green ones that were attempting to pin me to the spot. "Uhh..."
For some dumb reason I couldn't seem to force the words out past my throat.
"It's because there are two of us, isn't it?" Abel concluded, and my eyes shot to his. His green eyes were warm and concerned. "You're afraid of that. Afraid of what it actually means to be with two guys at one time."
The last wasn't a question so much as a statement. He'd figured me out, just like that, and I honestly wasn't surprised by it, because it wasn't normal, wasn't natural. What we had between all of us as a group already wasn't normal or natural. To add the twins in to the mix really made things way out there.
"You're really worried about being with the both of us at the same time?" Addison asked in a hushed voice. "Why ever would you be worried about that, Ariel? You have got to know by now that neither my twin or myself would ever do anything that would hurt you. All you would need to do is say stop and we would. Tell us you're uncomfortable and we'd try something different. Honestly, we've tried to be with girls separately and it has never worked out for us. We both hated it and missed each other. It's almost painful for us to be separated for any amount of time so it just seems natural that we find the right female to put between us. That doesn't mean we've ever actually found someone to take that spot before, because we haven't. We've fooled around with girls at the same time, but it never actually got to the sex stage before. Yeah, we've had sex before but not together like we want to."
Abel frowned deeply at his twin. "You make it sound dirtier, kinkier than it really is when you say it like that."
He kind of had a point.
Addison sighed before kissing my throat sweetly. He gave my hips a light squeeze before one hand slid up underneath my shirt, gliding across my bare skin, not stopping until he hit just above my belly button. His fingers splayed, his thumb gently caressing directly above my belly button. I fought off the urge to wiggle underneath that touch and was proud when no needy sound escaped past my lips.
"We'll take things slow," Addison whispered gently. "Easy. We will find out what works best between the three of us together. Neither of us are going to force you into anything and we know and hope you would never do the same. We will work it out together, figure it out together. The three of us. There's no pressure here, Ariel, not between us. That's not how we want this to work out."
The weight around my shoulders lifted. His words had set me at ease because I knew he spoke absolute truth, for the both of them.
"What exactly did you look up?" Abel asked me in a curious voice.
I swallowed thickly before admitting to them, "Double penetration. Like the kind where both cocks go in one hole. It was really traumatizing, I tell you."
I snapped my mouth shut, not believing I had actually admitted that out loud to the both of them.
Abel sputtered, his face turning red. My mouth dropped open at seeing his eyes widen in shock. I had never seen him in such a state before. They were both always so self-assured and confident.
"Two cocks in one hole," Addison muttered, sounding intrigued. "I've honestly never thought about that before because there's a hole for each of us. Hmm... the possibilities."
Not happening. At least, not for a while. Not for a good long while.
"I've only had sex twice," I blurted out. "And with a different person each time. I don't think I'm ready for anything quite like that and pretty sure I might never ever be. Maybe I will, I’m not going to rule anything out because that would be stupid, but I need you guys to understand just how inexperienced I am. I need you both to understand that and why I need to take my physical relationship with the two of you slower than the rest of the guys because there are, well, two of you. Together."
“Beautiful girl,” Abel muttered. “We love you, we both love you. There’s no time limit on our relationship here. It’s going to take time for all of us to get there. We’re down for taking that time. It will make things more special when we do actually get to the sex.”
That sounded nice and was exactly what I wanted to hear from them.
I melted between them, my body going limp. The fight had gone right out of me and I no longer had a reason to tell them no because they'd now made it clear I had absolutely nothing to worry about with them.
If they had dragged me to one of their beds and gotten handsy with me, I would have been more than willing.
They had other ideas though.
"What brought you to our bedroom, pretty girl?" Abel questioned me in a serious voice, his green eyes warm and curious. The heat was missing from them and I knew the lust had left him entirely.
He was no longer in the mood. My talk and fear of double penetration had taken him right out of it. It was a good thing, too, because I so did not want to be talking about this anymore.
Addison gave my hips a gentle squeeze.
"Pretty girl?" he prompted, having taken the hint his twin was done with the dirty talk and ready to move on with the conversation.
I sighed. "I need to go and get some of my things from Dash's cottage, and I'm not stupid enough to think I can go by myself. I supposedly have bodyguards now, but they are nowhere to be found. I think they've gone off somewhere with Rain and I think I should be upset about that, but I'm not. I have enough guys to keep tabs on that I don't need nor want two more of them to add to the list. Still, part of me is glad Rain has taken them under his wing. That being said, I can't go to the cottage by myself."
"And you chose us?
" Addison asked in a quiet, skeptical voice.
I hated that he sounded so unsure that I would choose to spend time with them and pick them to do something like this with me.
"Is that so hard to believe?" I countered in a hard voice. "I would have come in search of the both of you first if I hadn't needed to talk to the bodyguards beforehand. That's not something I even wanted to do, but did because I had to. I actually want you both with me when I go there to pack up some of my belongings. I... you both helped me pack up Vivian's things and I don't think I could have done that without either of you. I know I don't make enough time for you, especially with me working in the shop now, but I hope you both know that I need you in my life and love you both very much."
"We'll go with you," was Abel's immediately reply.
"We need to shower first, if that's okay with you," Addison said, before squeezing me and letting me go. "You can either stay in here to wait for us or we'll meet you downstairs in twenty minutes. We'll be cool with whatever you choose."
"But," Abel added, "we'd really like for you to wait for us in here, in our room, our space. You're on our time now and you need to understand just what that means. We all do."
I thought about all they'd said to me since I'd walked into their bedroom just minutes before. I had come here because I really had wanted to spend time with them and had missed them. But, if I was being honest with myself, I had been slightly nervous because I wasn't entirely ready to have sex with them and didn't want them to expect it from me just because I'd had sex with a few of the others.
"I'll stay in here while I wait," I assured them. They not only deserved that much from me, but they'd well and truly earned it as well.
I kicked off my flip-flops as I shrugged out of their holds. They let me go easily.
I headed toward the bed with the white, messy comforter as I pulled my cell phone out of the back pocket of my skirt. I had texts to respond to and hadn't had the time to do so because I had been too busy having sex with Quinton.
