Twenty-One
Asher
Ihad finished recordingenough content for at least two weeks when I decided to call it a night.It was technically early, and Violet was still in the tub, which was what had me so distracted that I couldn't work.I uploaded a few videos to Fan Cam and then shut down my laptop, leaning my head against the headboard.My bedroom butted up against the bathroom, which made it hardnotto think about Violet on the other side of the wall, naked in a tub when she should have been naked in my bed instead.
I tried reminding myself that just because I wanted to fuck her senseless didn’t mean she was in the same spot.While I wasn’t wrong about all of the changes I had noticed about her recently, that didn’t mean that she was desperate to jump into bed with us.I knew that even if Violet was interested in toeing that line she’d made for herself, that it didn’t mean she would be open toboth of us.
My stomach growled, reminding me of how distracted I had been at dinner that I hadn’t eaten much.I got up and set my laptop on my dresser, right as I heard a scream through the thin wall that separated me from Violet.Without thinking twice, I rushed out of my room and flung the bathroom door open.
Violet’s eyes widened as water sloshed around her, spilling over the side of the tub as something hummed in the water as she struggled to keep it hidden.I raised my eyebrows, realizing what she had been doing.
I immediately tried to avert my gaze, ignoring the fact that the bubbles moved and no longer covered her breasts.A quick glimpse had revealed puckered nipples that had me nearly begging to suck them as I shifted as discreetly as I could to hide the immediate bulge in my shorts.
“Umm...sorry.”I shoved a hand through my hair and forced myself to look at the floor.“I heard a scream and...I...”
She watched me while a heavy silence filled the air.I blew out a frustrated breath and looked at her, finding her eyes dilated as she slowly lifted the toy out of the water.A red rose glimmered in the light as she gave me a nervous smile while a blush swept over her cheeks.
“Sorry...I didn’t realize how umm...powerfulit was,” she said softly, as she stared at it while it continued vibrating in her hand.
“Yeah...they can be like that sometimes,” I replied cautiously, remembering that she admitted she had never used one before.“What made you decide to go with that one?”
I folded my arms over my chest to keep from fidgeting as I asked the question I had been dying to ask since she came home with the bags from Dark Vibes.I also ignored the fact that this was by no means a normal conversation you had with someone after bursting in on them in the bathroom.But my curiosity got the best of me because of all the toys I pictured her buying, this one wasn’t on the list.
I tried my best to keep my attention focused on her eyes and not her breasts, but she caught my lingering gaze, and her blush deepened.Her fingers trailed lightly through the water, shifting the bubbles so they hid her.She turned the toy off, the humming sound instantly stopping.
“My friend, Bella, recommended it.”
“Is she your boss’s wife?”I asked, trying to remember the names she had mentioned the other day.
“No, that’s Kensy.She went with us, though.Bella is her friend who used to be a lingerie model.”
I nodded, not sure what else to say.
“Well, I will leave so you have some privacy,” I said awkwardly, forcing a smile and turning to leave.
“Why won’t you guys touch me?”
I stopped and froze in place, my body humming with excitement as I thought about how to answer that question.I turned slowly, licking my lips as I locked eyes with her.
“We’re waiting for you to be ready,” I answered, keeping it as simple as I could.
“I am ready.Trust me—I’m beyond ready,” she said with a pointed look as she held the toy up.
I bit my lower lip as I grinned, loving how flustered she looked.I could only imagine how beautifully flustered she would look after Enzo and I gave her what she needed.I licked my lips, buying myself a few more seconds before I answered her.
I could see her practically squirming in the water as I watched her while leaning against the doorframe as if I had all the time in the world.The truth was that when it came to Violet, I had nothing but time.I was willing to go however slow she needed me to go because I wanted whatever this was between us to work out.I wanted her to trust me and to know that it wasn’t just about having sex.
“There’s a difference between being horny and being ready for us,” I said softly.
“I don’t understand.”She blew out a frustrated breath and set the toy down.“Those are the same thing.I’m horny and ready for you guys.It seems I have a problem, and you guys keep hinting that you can fix it, yet no one will touch me.”
“Baby, I’ll touch you wherever you want me to touch you.But trust me, there’s ahugedifference between us getting you off and making you come so hard you have to call in to work for a week, and you beingreadyfor us.Once we cross that line with you, there won’t be any going back.You can’t blame us for wanting to take it slow and make sure you’re ready emotionally and physically before we start anything.”
She narrowed her eyes slightly, then tilted her head to the side to study me.
“Call in for aweek?That seems a bit extreme.”
I chuckled and lowered my head as I shook it while a ragged breath escaped my lips.
