Another spike of fear pierced my heart as I remembered the pain and how close I’d come to losing everything, including them.
But Kai forced his contentedness through the bond, reminding me where I was, soothing me, so I could sink into the feeling of them even more.
Kai had other plans for Caspian as he grinned at me, glancing down towards Caspian’s crotch.
Kai stripped Caspian whenever it was his turn to look after us, while Sin preferred to cover us in a blanket and sleep. I didn’t ask them why they were acting like that, because I wasn’t ready to have that conversation yet. Even telling Caspian what had happened to his family was too much.
Caspian looked completely delicious. His cock wasn’t fully hard, but there was so much of him it still stood out amongst the hard lines of his body.
Kai grinned as his hand sneaked down Caspian’s chest, and excitement buzzed inside me. It wasn’t like we were going to do much. It was just to see how far we could go before he woke up.
My hand joined Kai’s and snuck downwards, my fingertips brushing over Caspian’s hip. I took a shaky breath as I reached farther down, stroking Kai’s wrist, but I suddenly froze as Caspian’s presence flooded the bond.
“What the fuck are you two doing?” His deep voice rumbled around us, sending an arrow of desire whizzing through me.
“Well, you weren’t waking up, and we wanted to play,” Kai instantly replied with a purr. “We didn’t know how long you were going to be asleep for.”
“How are you feeling?” I asked, and he flinched, a scowl twisting his face even though the pain pulsing inside him was the same as mine.
“I’d feel a lot better if you got me out of these fucking handcuffs,” he growled, tugging at them, and the bed rattled.
Kai said it was normal for Caspian to take days to recover, but what had happened at the restaurant couldn’t be called normal.
He didn’t hesitate as he curved his fingers around Caspian’s hardening cock, making him shudder.
Kai smirked as my hand travelled farther down. It was funny that I was nervous about touching his cock when he had already fucked me in broad daylight in the middle of a garden.
“We’re deciding whether we should give you a treat after everything you had to go through. Or should we punish you for going rogue and fucking ruining Brandy?” Kai snarled as he dug his fingers into his shaft, and I gasped as the pain flowered in me.
Kai’s lips pulled back over his teeth, growling, his anger rising as he dug his nails in.
“Fuck off,” Caspian snarled as his back arched and he let out a yell of pain.
“Now you get to feel what it’s like when you can’t fight back,” Kai growled, and I instantly grabbed his arm.
“Stop. What are you doing?”
I knew Kai was trying to hide it, but his anger kept bursting free at the worst times.
I didn’t want him to hide from me again, but I couldn’t focus when worry for Caspian choked me up.
“Are you two going to let me the fuck go?” he groaned as Kai let go.
“But we don’t know if you’re going to go rogue. And Brandy’ssoscared, aren’t you?”
Kai tilted his head as Caspian swung his gaze to me, and I was already humming with need. It was easier to pretend that we were all okay than let Kai unleash himself.
They’d be able to tell straight away that I was more scared of my memories than Caspian. Maybe they even knew that I really didn’t mind the idea of Caspian breaking free from the handcuffs and going at me like he did when we first met.
“Terrified.” I nodded as my hand circled his crotch. “So scared that I don’t even know if I can touch you properly.”
My thumb swept the line of his shaft, and he instantly shuddered, the bed creaking as he jerked at the handcuffs, his hips jutting towards my hand.
“Mel,” he said my name so lovingly that I was already trembling. Sparks of heat flickered in us as we watched each other.
Kai chuckled as he lifted himself to his knees, leaning over his alpha.
Kai and Sin said that fucking was the best way to bring Caspian back to a stable state, and I was happy to try that out.
