He cleaned me up with a warm washcloth, taking his time. Making me feel loved and adored. Afterward, he kissed me down there, staring at me from between my thighs.
“Did I hurt you?”
I sat up and gripped his shoulder, needing to be closer to him. “No. You were perfect. Not too rough.”
“How do you feel?”
“A little sore. But otherwise, I feel… I can’t even explain it. That was my first orgasm.”
He narrowed his eyes. “Ever?”
I bobbed my head. “You were my first of many things.”
At that, Drake smiled so wide it reached his pretty blue eyes. “I don’t know where we go from here. But this wasn’t just sex. I’ve never… This was different.”
I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. “Me too.”
CHAPTER 13
DRAKE
Athump, thump, thumpsound woke me from a peaceful, dreamless sleep. I rolled onto my side, curling Olivia’s naked body to my chest, and ignored it.
But it started up again.
When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Tate, leaning over the bed, dressed in a tracksuit because we were supposed to go running.
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
He hovered over me, gripping the headboard that he banged against the wall once more.
“Drake, what are you doing?” Olivia whispered.
I rubbed my eyes and sat up, tossing a sheet over her naked body. “It’s not me.”
“I would love to hear how my best friend ended up in bed with my little sister.” Tate put one knee on the bed, which dipped from his weight. “I’m sure it’s a great fucking story. Let’s hear it.”
Olivia let out an exaggerated groan. “Don’t be an ass, Tate. It’s too early in the morning to get into a fight.”
With nostrils flared, Tate ground his teeth. “Before I left for boot camp, you promised to take care of Liv. And until now, you have kept that promise, Battle.”
He wasn’t calling me brother now. Nope, we were back to last names.
“You’re naked and in bed with my sister. So don’t think about lying to me. How long has this been going on?”
“Just last night,” I admitted.
Olivia pulled the sheet up to her chin, knees curled into her chest. “Tate, don’t freak out. It’s not what you think. Just give us a minute to explain.”
“Explain what? I can see that you two have been sneaking around with each other behind my back. How long did you wait before I left the room last night? One minute? Ten?”
I slid my legs off the bed and faced him. “Look, brother, you know I would never hurt her.”
“Don’tbrotherme,” he hissed. “Of all the people I trusted who fucked me over, you’re the worst one. At least the others didn’t lie right to my fucking face.”
“The entire time you were gone, I never touched Olivia. Well… only once, but it was to help her out at school.”
He folded his arms across his chest, jaw clenched. “What the fuck?”
