I grunt and roll my lips together to muffle the needy noise. The sound of Aiden’s belt buckle and his zipper coming undone is the only warning before he rams his cock into me. His hips slap against my ass as he bottoms out.
“Fuck,” he growls, and grabs my waist. “What have you done to me, Nova?”
Copper coats my tongue. I release my bloody lip and drop my head against my arm that I brace against the tree as Aiden pistons into me, every stroke harder than the last.
This feels too familiar. Too much like the time when he punished me over his bike outside our house. His fingers dig into my love handles, likely leaving behind bruises, and he doesn’t hold back as he fucks me like he’s angry.
But it’s his guttural question that replays in my head, creating a thread of hope inside my chest.
“Please, Aiden,” I whine.
He mutters a curse and jerks out of me.
I whimper at the loss and turn, only for him to gather me in his arms and pin my back against the rough bark.
My eyes widen. “Wai?—”
“You make me burn for you,” he growls.
My stomach flips, and I tighten my legs around his waist. “Then let me burn with you, pretty boy.”
His eyes widen in surprise, then narrow. “You wanna burn with me?”
“Yes,” I breathe.
Baring his teeth, he spears into me and keeps going until I can’t take any more of him. “Then take it.” He grunts as our hips meet and he bottoms out inside me. “Take every inch of me and burnforme.”
He silences my sob with a searing kiss, swallowing each moan that escapes me. Every harsh slap of his hips against mine echoes in the night, where anyone can hear and find us like this.
It’s almost too much, but I don’t want him to stop. Every nip on my bottom lip, his soft grunts, and how he kneads my love handles are confessions he refuses to say aloud.
Aiden rips away from the kiss and huffs a laugh as he buries his face in the crook of my shoulder. “You want to burn with me, but does he know?”
White dots blink in my vision as he forces me closer to the edge.
Aiden lifts his head and grinds his pelvis against me with a smirk. “Does your boyfriend know you love to come all over your brother’s cock?”
I arch my neck and dig my nails into his jacket over his biceps. “He’s not my?—”
“Does he know you find and fuck me after you talk to him?” Aiden whimpers.
My eyes roll back, and I ride the wave of ecstasy as he pushes me over the ledge. My ears ring, and I barely breathe as he works me through my orgasm before finally joining me.
“Fuck, you’re beautiful like this.” Aiden grunts and buries his face in my throat, his teeth sinking into my skin as warmth floods inside me. He stills and gentles his hold, kissing the bite mark like he’s sorry for hurting me.
I drop my legs from around him as he pulls out and sets me on my feet. My legs tremble, and I hold on to his shoulders to stay balanced.
Aiden’s gaze flicks over my face as he lowers my dress and smooths it to ensure it’s covering my lower half before tucking himself back into his pants. Silence stretches between us, and it feels like we’re on opposite sides of the world, hoping the other will be the first to reach out.
“Aiden,” I whisper, and cup his cheek with a trembling hand. “I’m in?—”
A resoundingbangsplits through the air, and blood sprays onto my chest and face. Aiden stumbles forward and lets out a guttural groan before falling into me.
THIRTY-SIX
NOVA
A shrill screamfills my head and echoes in the night, the sound broken like the cries of a dying animal in its last moments. It’s when my lungs deflate and my throat squeezes that I realize it was me who was screaming.
