He’s mid drink of his water and slightly spits it out. “She told you?”
I point at him and snap my fingers. “Knew you did something. You’re a deviant little fucker, Ian.”
“Whatever,” he says, waving me off. “I was jealous, and she looked so good, and I’ve been so patient.”
I arch an eyebrow at him. “Have you?”
“Did you come down here solely to give me shit, Ezra?”
“Someone has to. Seeing as I’m not blinded by your monster cock, I’ll need to be the voice of reason.”
Suddenly, there’s a clearing of a throat, and a pink cheeked Luna wraps her arms around herself. She’s wearing pink shorts and a simple white T-shirt with some band name on it. Ian groans next to me as Luna comes to sit between us on the couch.
“Is James coming?” she asks softly.
Ian shakes his head. “James is a night owl; it’s when he works on his plants.”
“Oh,” she says dejectedly. I’m already plotting ways to get these two to have some alone time together. This is never going to work if Luna thinks James doesn’t want this. Ian and I are used to how he is, we love how he is. But it’s something that Luna needs to make sure James is someone she likes—she needs time to get comfortable with our aloof Omega.
“What would you like to watch?” I ask, and she looks at the screen as I click through the menu. She shockingly chooses a thriller, and as soon as it starts playing, I watch as more tension leaves her body. Luna shivers slightly, and I grab the softest blanket we have, hoping that James doesn’t mind, and I toss it over her lap. She gives me a small smile before bringing the blanket to her nose and taking a deep sniff.
She sighs with contentment as she sinks deeper into the couch. It’s like she’s a beacon that Ian and I are drawn to as we both seem to get closer and closer to her as each minute passes. I’m not sure when it happens, but her head is on Ian’s thigh as he runs his fingers through her hair. Her legs are propped on my legs, and I knead the tension out of her calves. A soft moan leaves her lips, and it makes me hard against my free will.
It must do the same to Ian as he shuffles his body and moves Luna slightly on his thigh. She yawns and squeezes Ian’s thigh before sitting up. I can read his disappointment in his face, but she gives him a small smile. “I think I might try and get some sleep.”
Ian nods his head, and I can tell he wants to say something, but he holds back.
“Um, do you all work tomorrow? Or?”
“I have work to do at home, James sleeps a lot during the day, and Ezra has to be at the zoo.”
“You’re welcome to come with me,” I tell her, and all the sleepiness that was on her face is gone instantly.
“Really?”
“Really,” I say, trying to hold back my excitement. This is what I wanted, someone who wants to spend time with me. God, I’m needy as fuck.
“I would love to. What time should I be up?”
“Need to leave here at 8:30. Wear something comfortable.”
She pops up, so she’s standing. Her shorts have ridden up, and I can see the shape of her pussy lips. She claps her hands once and smiles, looking between Ian and I. She leans down and touches my scruffy cheek before doing the same to Ian. Her cheeks are red by the time she looks at us one more time.
“Goodnight,” she says softly.
“Night,” Ian and I say in unison, both of us with a look of awe as she makes her way up the stairs and to her bedroom.
“We’re so fucked,” I say with a laugh, and Ian rearranges his cock in his sweatpants and groans.
He scrubs his face and nods. “That’s for fucking sure. Thanks for inviting her to work tomorrow. I’m going to go to bed. Will you check in on James?”
“You got it.”
When I stand up, I have to do a similar re-arrangement as I walk outside. The humid air sticks to my skin as I walk across the lawn and knock on the door to his greenhouse.
“Yeah?” he shouts, and I come into the even hotter space.
“Hey, love,” I say, and he nods his head as he’s leaning over a plant and delicately clipping off buds.
