“Prep?” I thought losing my virginity was going to be the hard part.
“We can work on that when we’re all together.” Jack takes a drink. “We’ll get you nice and ready before any of us takes that ass.”
My toes curl into the couch as I take in the guys surrounding me. “Do we really need to do… that?”
I gesture vaguely in the air. Because seriously, while a finger might feel good, I’m not confident about any of these guys burying their dicks in my ass at this moment. It was a lot to take them in my pussy, and that’s where they’re supposed to fit.
“There’s a lot more we can do together if you’re open to anal, kitten.” Eli leans back on his hands. His arm muscles bulge with the movement. I never forget how ripped these guys are. “You’ll love it. But Caden is right, we need the right prep. We won’t do anything that might make you not like something.”
“Thanks?” I squirm in my seat. Still not one hundred percent on board with the notion.
“I’m definitely up for some one-on-one time with Harper,” Jack says. His blue eyes meet mine. “There’s all sorts of things we can get up to on our own, or maybe with a friend.”
His eyes trail to Caden, and an ache throbs through me, remembering taking them both. I’d be more than willing to do that again. But my brain sticks on something.
What if that’s what they did with Parker Ford? She lost her virginity to both of them. So did she take one in her mouth and one in her pussy, or did she do anal and pussy? I want to ask, but I don’t know the boundaries of our arrangement.
Do I really want to bring up other girls? What if they bring up other girls because I did it first? Yeah, not the best idea.
“If we’re going to do homework, I’ll need to go home and grab my books.” Eli stands and brushes his hands off. “Do we want to work here or somewhere else?”
“You mean like the library?” I finish the last bite of my sandwich. The library is my go-to study place. It always feels like it’s abandoned. All the nooks and crannies I can get lost in for hours.
Luke chuckles. “No, princess. We don’t go to the library, but we could go to a coffee shop to work.”
I’ve never been able to go to a coffee shop to work. Tooeasy for the horsemen to find me there. But I’m not hiding anymore. I get to be a semi-normal teenager with five guys breathing down my neck.
“Yes to coffee. Always yes to coffee.” Leaning back, I look at them. “I’m also up to spending time with just one or two of you. I’d like to get to know you guys better.”
Even if this thing is only for a year. The year’s just starting.
CHAPTER 38
The Fugazi
Harper
We all go our separate ways. Well, Caden sticks with me, but he actually lets me drive my car back to my house. He follows in his Mustang, parking behind my car, insisting I ride with him to the coffee shop.
When I step on the first stair, I turn and put a hand on his chest.
“Mom’s asleep. That means be quiet. Don’t talk unless you need to. Or stay out here and wait for me.” I narrow my eyes to show I’m serious.
Caden’s eyes twinkle with mischief as his hands grab my hips. “Nah, little nympho, I’m not letting you out of my sight.”
“Fine, but behave.” When I turn to unlock the door, his hand curves around my waist, sliding under my shirt to tease my skin.
“I love when you’re loud.” His voice is dark in my ear. “I want to find out how quiet you can be.”
“I’m serious, Caden. Mom needs her sleep.” I push open the door and turn to him, holding my finger over my lips.
He smirks and follows me into the house. Most of my books are upstairs. The house is quiet, like it needs to be when Mom works nights. We move silently up the stairs and into my bedroom.
Caden closes the door quietly before sitting on the edge of my bed. He says softly, “What about in here?”
“As long as you keep it down, we should be fine.” I give him my best stink eye while I gather up my books and laptop.
“Are you good, Harper?” His use of my name instead of his nickname gets my attention. I finish shoving my stuff in my backpack.
