Curiosity tangled with confusion, spreading through me just as sharply as the pain did when I shifted.
Alec’s fingers were still resting on my throat.
The crazy fuck had tried to strangle me.
My cheeks burned when I remembered the panic—the helplessness—and then the orgasm that followed, just as breathtaking as the fear had been.
Ironic.
“Ella,” Alec murmured, his tone deceptively gentle as he took my hand and guided it beneath the covers, pressing my palm against his hard cock.
Rowan moved behind me, his body close, his arm snaking around until his hand cupped my breast with familiar possession.
“You obey all of us,” he said, his voice rough, heavy with sleep and something darker beneath it.“No matter what we ask of you. No matter how much it hurts.”
My fingers barely wrapped around Alec’s cock, but I obeyed anyway—teasing the tip before sliding my hand down his heated length, testing the weight of it.
Behind me, Rowan shifted. I heard the unmistakable pumping sound of the lube bottle and swallowed hard.
“It was my first time last night with—you know,” I said quietly, my voice faltering. The words stuck in my throat.
I swallowed again.“Anal sex,” I whispered.
Rowan paused. Alec lifted his gaze over me to Rowan, the exchange between them silent but unmistakable.
“Don’t worry, sweet Ella,” Alec said lightly.“I cracked you wide open.”
The innocence in his tone made my stomach twist—but I didn’t miss the subtle nod he gave Rowan.
Sure enough, Rowan smeared lube against my arsehole.
“I’ll be gentle,” he whispered.
Then came more pumping sounds.
I didn’t need to look back to know he was lying through his teeth.
His partner in crime parted my thighs, Alec’s fingers grazing over my clit, unhurried, deliberate.
“Think of how hard you came last night,” Alec murmured.“You don’t even know what we did to you when you were out cold.”
He snickered softly.
“What?” I gasped, my breath stuttering.
“Such lovely tight holes,” he said, pouting theatrically.“How were we supposed to resist?”
“We didn’t want to wake you up,” Rowan added calmly, as if that made any of it benevolent.
The sound of the bathroom door opening made me tense.
Nick stopped short, his gaze flicking over the three of us. My attention, which had been fixed on the artwork etched into his skin, dropped before I could stop it—locking onto his hardening penis instead.
“How do you even get through airport security?” I blurted, shocked that a dick could have that much metal in it.
Alec and Rowan chuckled, low and amused, but I couldn’t tear my eyes away.
His cock twitched as he stepped closer, and then his balls came into view. I gaped at the neat series of metal hoops running down the centre of them, lined up with brutal precision.
