Damn, I didn’t think he drank that much. If I had known he would make himself sick, I would have taken the bottle away from him.
Amelia giggles and points to Leonidas. He’s currently picking up Elijah in his arms.
“You threw up.” Chuckles leave her lips.
“Shut up, Amelia,” my frustrated boyfriend grumbles.
He takes Elijah up to my room, where I have air mattresses on the floor for them. When I invited them over, I pulled those babies out. We haven’t used them in years. I didn’t want them sleeping in Mom’s room, which was the only room left. So, this will do. And I would feel horrible if they slept on the couch.
I watch as Elijah cuddles under the blankets and mumbles a slurred, “Thank you.”
Leonidas glances down at his brother in amusement. “Idiot.”
I slap his bicep and scold him, “Be nice.”
“Nah, I don’t do nice.”
“Yes, you do,” I say and place my hands on my hips.
“Only to you,” he grumbles as I walk away to find Amelia.
I find her in the same place we left her.
“Time for bed, Amelia,” I say happily.
“What? Noooo,” she whines.
“It’s four o’clock in the morning,” I say and pull her up with so much effort.
Placing one of her arms around my neck, I guide her upstairs. All her dead weight on me makes the task ten times more difficult.
I lay her down beside her brother and build a pillow wall between them, knowing they’ll appreciate that later.
“I’m only going to bed if you go too,” Amelia whispers, glancing up at me.
I nod my head at her. “I’ll be on my bed. Go to sleep.”
She watches as I walk over to my comfy-looking bed. Shivers travel up my spine when I find Leonidas lying down in only his black boxers, waiting for me.
He smirks at me. Sending him one back, I turn off my lamp, surrounding the room in darkness and silence. Lifting the sheets up, I lie down, my back facing him, and snuggle into my sheets. My body stiffens when I feel his body come closer to mine from behind.
I arch my back when I feel his soft lips against my neck. He nips and grips my hip firmly. Looking over my shoulder, I find him leaning on his elbow. His body hovers over mine, making my heart skip a beat. I want this … I really do, but Elijah and Amelia are in the same room. It seems disrespectful.
“They’re drunk,” he whispers. Looking over at them on the floor, he nods. “They’re out. They won’t hear. They’re deep sleepers, I promise.”
I bite my lip. I want Leonidas. We haven’t seen each other since Mom grounded me. This is the first night we’ve been alone together. We’ll be quiet. We have to be.
He sees the smile on my lips. “Come here.” He jerks me against him. His eyes are full of desire.
He takes my mouth with his, kissing me deeply and passionately. I feel his member pressing against my thigh, and I groan lowly into our kiss. As I pull my lips apart from his, he sits up against the headboard. I place myself in his awaiting lap. When I wrap my legs around his hips, he presses our bodies together.
His firm hand caresses up the side of my body. “So alluring,” he whispers before pulling me into him.
Our lips delicately touch, and it makes me wild. My hands grip his shoulders, desperate for something to hold on to. I rub my lower half against his, and he curses against my lips.
The last time we had sex, he took full control. I loved the alpha male look on him. But now, I feel a certain hunger to be the one in charge.
The sheets rest below my butt. I crawl slowly down his body, and he watches me with intense eyes.
