My hands are trembling as I stand at the door of the pool house, psyching myself up to knock. I can hear the chatter of the TV from inside and the twinsâ rental car is in the driveway so I know theyâre home. I lick my lips and take a deep breath.
I never knew it was possible to vibrate with need. To crave something so much that it becomes a physical and emotional ache. There are so many reasons why I shouldnât go through with this. I know Iâm on the edge and that the decisions Iâm making are reckless in a way that I would never usually consider. I feel like an addict. I know what I want isnât really good for me but I canât seem to help myself.
I tap on the door lightly. It feels like a non-committal knock. A tiny part of my sensible self thinks that if they donât hear me I have the option to walk away. I should be at home, resting before my doctorâs appointment tomorrow. Mom must be worried about me.
No one answers for a while and I take a step back, considering whether to ignore my sensible self and knock again. Then the handle moves and the door opens to reveal Jason, shirtless and sexy as fuck. Itâs hot and the skin at the center of his chest is glistening slightly. His green eyes meet mine and I can see him trying to gauge my mood.
âKatelin.â His voice is gruff as though heâs been sleeping. His hand rubs at his shoulder and I canât take my eyes off the way his muscles flex under his beautiful golden skin. Heâs waiting for me to say something but thereâre no words in my head, only desire. Desire for him and desire for the oblivion I know he can bring me.
I close the distance between us so quickly that I take him by surprise, hooking my hand behind his neck and pulling him down so I can kiss him. Itâs not soft and gentle but fierce and clawing. His hands grab me around the ass and haul me against him until my legs are wrapped around his waist, and my hands clutching at his face.
He groans as I grind against him, stumbling us backwards and slamming the door shut. Iâm glad for that. The last thing I need is another run in with Doug. I think that Jason will take us into the bedroom but instead he backs towards the couch and when his legs hit the edge, he flops us down.
âBaby,â he growls, holding my face in his huge palms and looking into my dazed eyes.
âJase,â I say. âI needâ¦â
âIâve got you.â He tugs my hips forward until my pussy is pressed tight against him, then he yells for Austin.
I writhe against Jasonâs huge stiffening cock, feeling frenzied and desperate. His hands grasp at my ass, squeezing so hard I cry out. Hands tug at my top and for a moment I think theyâre Jasonâs, then I feel another set of hands on my tits and I know Austinâs behind me. For a moment Iâm lost between them. Itâs as though I can see myself from above, being handled by these two men, never sure who or what is going to happen next.
Austinâs lips press against the base of my spine, then his tongue, licking in a way thatâs both lewd and tender. Jason tugs down the cups of my bra and rolls my nipples, tweaking them so hard I buck. I can smell the clean scent of his sweat and feel the heat radiating from both of them, at my front and my back. Iâm cocooned and safe in this crazy place between them.
Austinâs hands slip around to my front and takeover where Jason is caressing. Jasonâs hands move to tug my yoga pants over my hips so he can slip his fingers down the front to where Iâm aching. God, I need their touch so much. Like this I feel strong and alive, raw and connected. Jasonâs fingers are urgent when they find my clit and then slip deeper between my legs. Iâm so wet that he gets two big fingers inside me with next to no effort. It feels so good that I ride his hand, knowing that I can come like this if Austin keeps squeezing and tugging at my breasts. I donât care that itâs selfish. I havenât yet touched either of them other than to graze Jasonâs chest with my fingers. This is about what I need and I can feel that they donât care in the way theyâre focused on me with darkened, hooded eyes.
âThatâs itâ¦take what you need,â Austin says, putting a hand on my hip and using it to help me grind down against his brother.
âOhâ¦â I say as he pushes me faster. âThatâs itâ¦thatâsâ¦â
I come in the fastest time ever, back arching, hands scrabbling for the fabric of Jasonâs pants just to I have something to grip onto. The pleasure is so fast, so surging, that tears spring to my eyes and are squeezed out through my closed lids. Jason keeps moving his hand slowly and Austin kisses the back of my neck, pushing the mess of curls over my shoulder.
I feel Jasonâs free hand stroke my tears away, but I canât look at him. Shut in my dark bubble I feel safe, as though Iâm somewhere deep where all the other pressures in my world canât touch me. Then I hear the noise of the door opening behind us, and my moment of peace is shattered.
For a second no one moves, then I hear Bryan.
âKatelin,â he growls in a voice that is filled with pent up rage.
Jason slips his hand from between my legs and gathers my top from where itâs resting over the back of the sofa. He puts it over my head carefully, and no one says a thing. Iâm so grateful that their main focus is on getting me decent so I can face Bryan. My heart is pounding but it isnât because of any regret I feel. Itâs because I can finally hear something else in Bryanâs voice.
Possession.
All this time heâs been almost apologetic about his feelings, but I can sense the difference.
I start to stand and Austin steps back to let me disentangle myself from Jason. When I turn, Bryan is standing with his hands gripping either side of the door frame, like he needs to restrain himself.
âWhat?â I ask, putting my hands on my hips.
Bryanâs nostrils flare and his jaw ticks angrily. Good, I think. About fucking time he showed some passion.
âYou left the hospital. I didnât know where the fuck you were.â
âI was here.â I know itâs surly to state the obvious but I can see my attitude is poking at Bryanâs self-control.
âI can see that,â he says.
âSo, now you found me.â I take a step forward, bringing us closer and he leans in, closing the gap a little more. There are still a few feet between us, but we feel close, connected almost by the vibrating rage between us. I can see the jealousy in his expression, when he glances at his half-clothed brothers and at me, standing bra-less in front of him with cheeks that are flushed from my orgasm.
I donât know what I expect him to do. I think that maybe if I can poke him enough heâll kiss me hard. After so long waiting, I need him to fight for me. I need him to stake his claim in a way that isnât a sweet kiss in my best friendâs driveway but a desperate, almost violent action generated by the heat of our anger and frustration.
When he steps through the door I think Iâm going to get what I crave so badly that Iâm shaking. Instead, he channels all that rage and smashes his fist against the door, yelling expletives as he does.
We all stand for a few seconds that feel like minutes, trapped in shock at the smear of blood against the white painted wood and at Bryanâs back that is heaving with his fast breathing.
âFuck,â Austin says behind me. I take a step forward, and raise my hand to touch Bryanâs shoulder gently, but before I can, I hear footsteps on the pathway outside.
My heart sinks when I see that itâs Doug. He must have been in the yard and heard the shouting. His face is raging, much like his sons.
âWhat the hell,â he shouts, looking between me, the twins and Bryan who is now standing, clutching his bleeding fist.
âLeave it, dad,â Bryan says in a low warning.
Doug doesnât seem to gauge the situation very well because he starts yelling âwhat the fuck is going onâ and then calling us all sick for doing what weâre doing and that weâre all going to be related soon and itâs disgusting.
The twins stay silent but I can see from the stiffening of their postures and the balling of their fists that theyâre mad as hell. Iâm about to lose my shit when Bryan turns to face his father head on.
âYou know what,â he growls, âIâm sick of your shit. Iâm sick of you telling me what to do all the time. Iâm sick of your rules about whatâs okay and what isnât. For two years Iâve done what you asked. Iâve put aside my own relationship for the sake of yours. Iâve lost the girl that I love because you want to control my life.â
âYou donât know whatâs best for you. Youâre just a kid.â Doug says through gritted teeth. âYou want to bring shame on this family. All of you. But I wonât allow you.â
âYou wonât allow me?â Bryan says as though heâs chewing over the words in his mind.
Doug turns to me. âKatelin, you need to get your things and go home.â
âStay where you are,â Bryan tells me, stepping forward so heâs between me and his dad. âYou donât get to tell her what to do.â
âWhat do you think your mom would think if she knew what you were doing?â
For a moment I feel a swell of shame at Dougâs words but then Iâm mad. Mad that our society is so stringent in defining what is acceptable and what is wrong and mad that a man who barely knows me can presume to know anything about my relationship with my mom.
âI think that maybe sheâd think that life is short and you have to seize every moment. And sheâd know that Iâm not stupid, that I know my own mind and what is right for me, and that it isnât her place to live my life for me. She has her own life to live, her own mistakes to make. This is MY LIFE.â
Doug looks a little shocked at my outburst and no one moves for a second.
âYou need to leave, Dad,â Bryan says.
âYou listen to meâ¦â Doug starts to say. I see Bryanâs right arm tensing, his fist flexing, and for a terrible moment I think heâs going to hit his father. Austin, who is closest to his brother, steps forward as though heâs thinking the same thing.
âBryan,â I whisper.
I think itâs my voice that triggers it. He strides forward and I go to take hold of his t-shirt but miss. Everyone in the room seems to suck in a horrified breath at the same time but then Bryan bumps his fatherâs shoulder as he walks past and heads out the door. He moves so fast that for a moment Iâm paralyzed, then Iâm running after him, bare feet sore on the hot path. Bryanâs heading toward his car and I make it to the passenger side as heâs sliding himself into the driverâs seat. He seems surprised that Iâm there but he doesnât wait for either of us to buckle up before heâs put the car in reverse and weâre flying away from the house at dangerous speed. For the second time that day his knuckles are whitened from gripping the steering wheel too tight.
I know where weâre heading immediately. Barton Hillâs. I guess Bryan must have taken the twins up there before they took me. I didnât realize it was a go-to place for him, but then I guess I shouldnât be surprised. There seems to be an awful lot that I donât know about this man. The drive is so silent but I canât bring myself to speak. I donât know what to say at all and heâs still breathing fast and tense. Iâm worried that anything I say is going to distract him from driving and I want to get there in one piece.
He parks in the same place as the twins did, but facing out to the view. Then he switches off the ignition.
We sit staring at the gorgeous scenery for a few moments. I canât look at him for all the uncertainty between us.
âKaty,â he says gruffly. Heâs the only one who calls me that and it makes my skin prickle to hear the softness underlying his tone.
I turn to look at him and am greeted by piercing green eyes filled with so much confused longing that my heart hurts. For a long moment we look at each other, then he leans towards me fast, pulling me into a kiss that is so ferocious it hurts.
There is nothing tender in the way he claims me, mouth forcing my lips to part for his tongue that penetrates my mouth desperately. His hands grasp my face, angling my head so he can get deeper, controlling the way we move together. He moans frantically, leaning over me and slipping one hand up my t-shirt. When he finds my bare breast he groans long and low, worrying the nipple with his big calloused thumb and finger.
I call out his name, when he grips me at the waist, hauling me towards him until Iâm straddling his lap with the steering wheel at my back. Looking at him eye to eye is so intense that I shiver. His usually sparkly green irises are blackened with widened pupils and a longing so fierce that I reel. We sit, panting, watching, waiting. Seconds tick by as the threads between us seem to tug harder and harder. He reaches up to touch my lips, my neck, the skin of my forearm, as though heâs mapping my body for later reference. He links his hand with mine, entwining our fingers and holding onto me tightly. I stare at the place weâre joined, waiting.
âIâm sorry,â he says, and I jolt in surprise.
âWhat for?â
âFor hurting you. For keeping things from you. For putting my father and his stupid ideas before you when all along this should have been my priority.â He strokes my cheek, then moves his hands to my thighs and squeezes.
âYou should have told me,â I say quietly, resting my hands on his chest. You know we could have worked it through.â
âIt just didnât seem fair at the time, and then as more months passed I just couldnât get past the fact that youâd be mad at me for keeping things from you. The lies seemed too big to forgive.â
I sigh because I know how he feels. For so long I pretended that Bryan meant nothing to me that when I wanted to talk to my friends about how I really felt, I didnât know how to admit Iâd been covering things up all along.
âIt just seems like such a waste,â I say.
âIt doesnât have to be anymore.â
Bryan slides his hands up my thighs and over my hips, pushing his hands back up my t-shirt, seeking out the nipples heâd made into points just minutes earlier. He holds my gaze, waiting, watching to see how Iâll react. I donât know what any of this means. His confessions seem to suggest heâs regretful for the lost years between us, but is he saying he wants us to be something serious?
And how can he when he knows whatâs been going on with Jase and Austin?
âYouâre beautiful,â he murmurs, pushing my hair over my shoulder and then lifting my top over my head. Itâs warm in the car but I get goose bumps all over as he uses the tips of his fingers to trace patterns over my skin. âSo pretty.â
âBryanâ¦â I say his name because itâs all I can form as he slips his hands into the back of my yoga pants and drags me until Iâm set against the hard bulge in his jeans. I get a flashback of the feeling when Jason had done the same, only an hour earlier. Theyâre so alike that sensations and images blur.
When Iâm with the twins that blurring of hands and mouths, cocks and words, doesnât feel wrong. It feels totally right, like the most unbelievable immersion into the experience of being worshiped by two men. Now, with Bryan, it feels strange. Not wrong as such but unsettling. When I look into his eyes I see his brothers, when I feel his hands, I feel his brothers. I donât know when it happened and I donât know how I feel about it.
He squeezes my ass and grinds me harder and I have to hold his shoulders to feel grounded enough to kiss him. I get lost in the press of his lips, the stroke of his tongue. In a strange way it feels like coming home to be with him like this.
I remember days lying on the grass on campus, pretending to study when really it was an excuse to listen to him talk. It never really mattered what it was about, just that we always seemed to click, even when we disagreed. I remember nights at Samâs Pizza, with all our friends, but somehow Bryan would always end up sitting across from me so we could share our favorite pepperoni with extra jalapenos and a whole ton of cheesy garlic bread. I remember days when heâd drop me at home after weâd hung out too long at the university coffee shop and heâd keep making conversation until Iâd realize weâd been sitting outside my house for an hour. I remember how kind he was when Auntie Marie passed away. His own mom had died when he was a kid so I guess thatâs what made him so empathetic.
As I kiss him, I want to remind him of those times that meant so much to me, but I donât. Every tender touch makes me believe that he remembers too. Itâs me who moves it on another base by reaching for his belt. Iâm so hot and achy between my legs and in my heart. Iâve waited so long to feel the pulsing heat of his heavy cock in my hands. Bryan groans when he realizes what Iâm doing, his eyes on my hands as I fumble with the buckle and then move to his button and fly. When I part his jeans to reveal bright white tight boxers concealing a rigid cock that looks like a baton, I suck in a breath. I donât take it out right away. Just pressing my palm against the heat of it is enough to make me sigh.
âKaty,â Bryan says, his voice vibrating with need.
âYou want me to touch it?â
âI want you to do whatever you want to do,â he says.
What I want to do is strip off my yoga pants and ride him until I come. I want to see the ripple of his abs as he seeks his pleasure, to feel the thrusting of his hips beneath me, urging me to move faster and harder. I want to kiss his lips and taste his satisfaction when he comes deep inside me. Most of all I want to know what this all means, but thatâs the part I know Iâm not ready for. While Bryanâs kissing me, he canât talk. He canât tell me how he feels and he canât ask me either. We can focus on the physical because thatâs the easy part. The rest involves more than I can deal with.
I tell him to move the seat back to give me enough room to take my yoga pants off. I leave my panties on though because it feels too much to strip naked in a car in a field. When I settle myself back, Bryan traces the pink lace edging with a feather light touch, then runs his index finger down from my navel, over the smooth black satin of my panties until heâs pressing directly onto my clit.
âYouâre so swollen, baby,â he says softly. âDoes it ache here?â
I nod and roll my hips against that single point of pleasure.
âTell me,â he orders.
âIt hurts,â I say. âMake it better.â
He puts his finger in his mouth to wet it, then tugs the fabric of my panties to the side so he can see where to touch. The first press of that cool, moist finger to my clit makes me jump. Bryan holds my hip firmly with his other hand â the one thatâs still bloody from his frustrated punch â as though he wants me to be still. He touches me with cool concentration and I heat up so quickly I feel as though I might burst into flames. I pull at the waist band of his boxers and wrap my hand around the delicious girth of his cock, and then there is nothing cool about his touch anymore. Heâs so hard and smooth and warm, and so similar in size to his brothers that for a moment Iâm blown away.
âGod, I want to be inside you so bad,â he growls, pushing a finger up inside me and making my rise up on my knees.
I tell him to âdo itâ and he reaches into his pocket for his wallet and the condom Iâm assuming he has in there for moments like this. Moments when you canât help but give in to the physical cravings that are capable of overriding everything else. I help him roll the latex down the full length of him, pressing against the root and stroking over his amazing abs.
I distract myself with his golden skin, the little happy trail of soft light brown hair that runs from his tight little belly button to his towering cock. I pretend this is like it was at first with the twins. A chance to scratch an itch or, as Auntie Marie would have urged, an opportunity to seize a moment that might never arise again.
When I raise up to position myself over him so that the flared head of his cock rests at my entrance, I close my eyes. In my own safe, dark space I can push myself down slowly. I can work it so my pussy can take all of his thickness and length. I can hold onto his shoulders and roll my hips in the way my body craves. I can pretend that this is all about pleasure and nothing else.
Bryan grunts when I bottom out. He says my name as I start to ride him harder and faster, grinding my clit against the scratchiness of the hair between his legs. I breath in his scent and I feel safe, beautiful, alive.
And when I come, he comes too, with his face buried between my breasts, panting violently against my heart that feels more bruised than it ever has before.
âKaty,â he says, as though he canât quite believe that Iâm really there, in his arms. Then, just as I fear how Iâm going to deal with what comes next, my phone begins to ring in my purse.
