Share Us
I gave out an exasperated sigh. “You’re not going to let it go, are you?”
“You kiss a woman for the first time since we met, and you think I'm going to let it go? Does that sound like me?”
I rolled my eyes and explained it had been an accident. “She is grateful we are letting her stay with us and meant to kiss me on the cheek, but my lips got in the way.”
“How did it make you feel?”
I considered telling him I had exaggerated the whole thing and had only been trying to make him jealous, but I wanted there to be no secrets between us, so I told him the truth. “It made my dick hard.”
“Look who’s hetero-curious.”
“I am not curious. I’ve been with women before.” Two, to be exact, and in neither case had it been particularly pleasurable for either party involved. “But I have to admit, there is something different about Ember.”
“Of course there is. She is a female version of you—strong willed, smart, and sarcastic. And both of you have amazing asses.”
“There is more to it than that. We share a common bond.”
“Because you both had shitty home lives growing up. Maybe you should explore this thing with her further.”
I could hear the wheels spinning in his head and did not like where this was going. “What's that supposed to mean?”
“Next time you are alone with her, kiss her again and see where things go.”
“I didn't kiss her. She kissed me.” I reminded him a little too emphatically. “And that is a horrible idea. If either of us made any kind of advance on Ember, she might feel obligated to reciprocate, given her current living arrangement.”
“She doesn't strike me as a type of woman who would do anything she doesn't want to. But I see your point. But, let's say she was to walk through that door right now. Bare ass naked and crawled into bed between us. That would be an invitation on her part and show that she didn't feel any obligation to us. It would just mean that she wanted to have sex with us. Right?”
“True,” I agreed. “We wouldn't be very good hosts if we turned her away.” As unlikely as I found his scenario, it did not keep my cock from getting hard. I could tell by the way Logan was pressing against my ass that he was as turned on by the idea as I was. We got little very sleep the rest of that night.
CHAPTER SEVEN
Ember
The next morning, I got up early to prepare breakfast for everyone. Even if Aiden had not told me I was expected to contribute around the house, I would have done it anyway. Unlike my mother, I am not comfortable leeching off of others. I didn't hear Aiden come into the kitchen. When he leaned over my shoulder to see what I was making, I startled. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.”
“I didn’t think anyone else would be up yet.” From the sounds coming from his bedroom the previous night, I knew they had been up late. With both of them having the day off, I assumed they would sleep in. All I had on was one of Logan’s uniform shirts. “I should go get dressed.”
“Don’t you like the pajamas I picked out?”
“That’s not it at all. They’re adorable, but I prefer to sleep in the nude. When I got up, this shirt was the first thing I saw, so I put it on. Like I said, I didn’t expect anyone else to be up yet.”
“Don’t worry about it. It looks better on you than it ever has on him.” His words seemed to surprise him as much as they did me. Red faced, he asked, “What are you making?”
“Eggs Benedict. Ours will have portobello mushrooms, but I thought Logan would prefer ham on his. Would you mind getting it out of the fridge for me, please?”
When he handed me the package, I caught a whiff of his scent. The mixture of sex and musk flooded my mind with the memory of how I had pleasured myself to the sounds of their lovemaking the previous night. It took all of my willpower to focus on poaching the eggs properly.
“About last night,” he said, and my heart stopped.
“Oh my god you heard me?” Even though I tried to stifle my cries, I get pretty loud when I orgasm. “I'm so embarrassed.”
“That's not what I meant, but since you brought it up, yes, we heard you. There’s no reason to be embarrassed. You probably heard some things as well. It's an old house and the walls are pretty thin. I am sorry if we made you uncomfortable.”
“You didn't make me uncomfortable. In fact, I thought it was pretty hot. That's why I—” Shit, what was it about him that made it impossible for me to control what came out of my mouth? “Anyway, what was it you were talking about?”
“I wanted to apologize for the way I behaved and stormed out last night. You and Logan did nothing wrong. I have some issues that I'm working through, but I should never have taken it out on you.”
Relieved to discuss anything that did not involve sex, I put my hand on his arm and told him Logan had explained everything. “I am very sorry about what happened to your father.”
