Mutual Feelings 🌶🌶🌶

MADDIE

~The words of that song will teach you how to end the curse…~

I jolted upright. I was back in my room in the apartment, alone and more than a bit confused. Was it all a dream?

Hael and Loch fighting Xythor...Silver taking me to the Shadow Realm...my meeting with the powerful Storm...

I shook my head. I felt drowsy, like I’d taken way too much sleep medicine.

But none of my memories felt like a dream. They felt more like remnants of a drunken night. I felt hungover from all that had happened.

I jumped out of bed and realized I still had on the same clothes as the day Xythor fought Loch and Hael. At least no one had tried to strip me naked while I was out!

I pulled on a fresh outfit and washed my face in the bathroom. The cold splash of water over my skin was refreshing.

To my dismay, the apartment seemed empty.

After the events of the last few days, I wanted nothing more than to talk about mindless gossip and catch up with Thea, Darshan, Harry, and Zayda.

But there was an odd sound coming from down the hall.

It was coming from Thea’s room.

I crept closer, hoping to eavesdrop just enough before I blasted open the door and scared the shit out of her...

Except...she wasn’t talking. She was...~moaning~!

And her moans were echoed by ~someone else~!

I nearly blurted out an uncomfortable laugh but managed to hold it inside while running down the hall.

I closed my bedroom door and locked it.

Had things gotten so crazy since my descent into the Shadow Realm that Thea found herself a man?!

Not like she wasn’t always trying. I could definitely raise a glass to her finally finding a decent man to bring home and fuck senseless.

I plopped down on the bed and stared at the popcorn ceiling.

I’d been having ridiculously hot sex for the past several weeks...but there was something different about hearing Thea’s moans.

No doubt she’d found some hunk—you'd have to be blind not to think she was attractive.

Thea acted as if she would chase after anything that gave her attention, but deep down, she was more complicated than that.

She wouldn't just shack up with any guy that dropped his jaw in adoration.

Fuck if I knew anything about power in my own life. My twin mates were hot—that wasn’t a question.

But just once, I'd like to be able to call the shots.

There was a glimmer of hope when they were knocked silly from the drugs Zayda made...but when they came to their senses and chased after me, I learned how quickly circumstances change.

What kind of things would I do if I had the choice?

A rush of heat washed over my skin. The last few days were a blur, but I suddenly realized I was alone.

I could do anything I wanted.

And imagine anything as well…

My hands crept down my abdomen, allowing my fingertips to slide over my skin. As my hands made their way to the top of my pants, I slipped my hand inside—under my panties.

At first, it seemed silly. I had two strong men to do this for me. But they wouldn't do what ~I~ wanted. Only what pleased ~them~.

I had masturbated before, but not like this...not to ~explore~.

My fingers found my soft mound and began working in gentle circles. It was simple...easy...and I loved it.

My breath grew shallow, and I could feel myself getting wetter.

I kicked off my pants but left on my panties, enjoying the way the elastic held my hand close to my body. I imagined it was someone else holding me tight. Telling me to keep going.

I was getting wetter, and my fingers worked faster. I found my clit and applied a little bit more pressure.

A moan escaped my lips. Holy shit! This was hotter than I ever remembered! My free hand slid up my shirt and cupped one breast—then the other. Each time I touched my nipples, it sent a jolt throughout my body.

I slipped a finger inside my pussy and imagined my last time being penetrated…when Loch and Hael entered me with their massive, throbbing...

~Damnit, Maddie! This isn’t about them!~

It was hard to forget how good they felt. But I could make myself feel good, too. And I would do it for as long as my body could handle…

My fingers pressed harder into my clit as I felt an orgasmic wave engulf my body. I pulled a pillow to my face and let out a loud moan as I thrust more fingers inside myself, my legs shaking as they moved in and out.

A gust of wind rippled through my room.

I heard it, but my jumbled mind couldn't place the noise. That was...until I could smell him.

I pulled the pillow from my face and saw Hael materializing from a cloud of black mist in the corner. He sneered at me as I continued to play with myself. At first, I thought this was a dream, but his presence was so real.

For some reason, I refused to stop. I might have brought him here with my yearning, but Hael would have to watch.

Hael continued to stare as the dagger rose in his pants, nearly slicing through the seams.

He pulled down his pants, and it stood at full mast, the veins pulsing, ready for its next victim.

But he didn’t move forward. Instead, he began to stroke his cock...slowly, at first, and then in unison with the thrusting of my fingers.

I saw beads of pre-cum leaking from his tip. He stared at me, and I stared at him.

I could feel myself getting wetter each time he pumped. My panties were soaked with the effort, but I knew he couldn't see everything through the material. This no doubt infuriated him.

But this was all he would get. This was all I would offer…

Hael moved forward and exhaled a deep groan as he finally let his seed go...it shot up like a geyser, soaking his abs. He had released it with such force that it even showered over my chest and stomach.

As I watched my mate orgasm into a stupor, I felt another wave coming.

This time I climaxed so hard I had to pull my fingers free and pat them gently against my clit. Each tender tap sent another shockwave through my body and filled my eyes with tears.

“Thank you for that,” I said, panting.

“I should thank you, little mouse,” Hael replied. “It took everything I had not to hold you down and slide my cock inside.”

“Well, I’m glad you resisted for once,” I said. “It’s nice to see you actually giving a shit.”

“Does this mean you’ll be making an appearance at Req Tower sometime soon, Maddie?”

“I’m not coming back with you.”

“Cute,” he replied with a growl. “But in time you’ll realize that you can’t live without us forever.”

When I could finally breathe, and my eyes adjusted to the tears, Hael was gone. Our mutual masturbation made me feel like a supernova, finally able to explode all on my own.

But there was something in his eyes...in the way that he looked at me while we played with ourselves...

His face was filled with lust...and he actually seemed to be enjoying it. He had finally given me some control over my own body, and the world hadn’t ended.

Maybe this was the start of something new.

But that made me think of something else...

Where was Loch? It was unusual for them to be apart—especially in the bedroom.

Was Hael hiding something from me?

***

I awoke to the sound of laughter coming from the living room. My intense moment with Hael must have taken more out of me than I had imagined.

After cleaning up the mess he'd left behind, I put on another set of fresh clothes and exited the room.

“There she is!” Darshan said with a smile. “At least, I think that was Maddie’s door.”

Thea and Darshan sat at the kitchen table, munching on a bowl of chips and dip.

“What are you now, our security system?” I said while sliding into a seat at the table.

“Pretty soon I’ll know the sound of every door, window and pigeon-toed footstep in this entire apartment,” he replied.

I smacked him on the shoulder and rolled my eyes at Thea. “And he acts like he’s some kind of perfect person.”

“Well, maybe he is,” Thea replied.

I felt myself gag on the dip as I watched the lustful look she gave Darshan. Not that he could tell.

But then again, he did seem to smile the moment her eyes met his sunglasses.

I needed anything to try and change the subject…

“Where’s Zayda?” I asked.

“She’s working,” Thea replied.

“Doing what?”

“Probably Xythor,” Darshan quipped.

Thea smacked his arm and let out a sweet giggle.

I could feel the hairs on my arm rise from disgust. What the hell was going on with these two?

“She’s been hired for some internship,” Thea shrugged. “Don’t know much else.”

“Must be nice to get some money,” I sighed.

Which was something to think about... Now that I was no longer under the heels of the Dobrzyckas, I wouldn't be able to access their mounds of money.

And since leaving Xander University under particularly harsh terms, it’s safe to say I won’t be getting any tuition money…

Well, at least I could take my mind off all this crap with the help of my friends.

“What do you guys have planned for tonight?”

Silence.

The look Thea gave Darshan caused goose-pimples to join my raised hair. Darshan, God bless that blind SOB, he was trying hi s best not to tense up.

These weren’t the looks of two friends unsure about their evening plans. They were...they were…

“Oh my God!” I screamed. “The moaning from your bedroom. It was you two!”

Thea’s nose wrinkled in disgust.

“You were listening?” she said, annoyed.

“You were listening?” Darshan repeated, much less annoyed. “How did it sound?”

I covered my mouth so that any unexpected vomit wouldn’t violently burst onto the chips and dip.

This. Day. Couldn’t. Get. Any. Worse!

“Don’t judge us,” Thea said. “After all, you’re the one fucking two dragons.”

“But...how could you?”" I asked, confused and unsure of everything.

“It just kind of happened,” Thea answered.

“Yeah. Just kind of happened. Like three times,” Darshan added with a wide grin.

“I’d say like, two and a half,” Thea replied, “but who's counting?”

I shook my head while moving away from the table. They're my best friends. Of course they could choose who they wanted to have sex with.

“I guess I’m pretty impressed that Darshan broke into Xander U and freed two dragons all by himself,” Thea admitted.

“Two maniacal dragons,” Darshan added.

I watched Thea scoot closer to Darshan and place her hand above his knee.

If there was any indication that I needed a job—it was this. Now, what the hell could I do to keep myself out of the apartment?

I filled a glass with tap water and drank it down greedily. Thea and Darshan kept flirting, no longer caring that they had just grossed out the third wheel.

Maybe I should go back to the skeleton quarter. I would always have some jobs there calling my name…
