“Because that’s going to become my new obsession.Watching you come undone knowing that one of us is watching you.Whether it's you getting yourself off or one of us taking care of you, it will be impossible not to think about how fucking wet you are from it.”
I opened my mouth but quickly closed it and rubbed my lips together, making sure I didn’t say anything stupid.My body was too relaxed to get out of the tub, but the water was getting cold, and I was turning into a raisin, so I had no choice but to get out.
“Would you mind handing me my towel?”I asked as I stood up, letting the water drip off my body as he grabbed it and held it out to me.“Thank you.”
I kept my eyes locked on his as I wrapped it around my body and accepted his hand as I climbed out.Feeling Asher touch me had been incredible, but the look he was giving me nearly made my knees wobble and sent an ache straight to my core.While I had crossed one huge bridge tonight by letting him touch me, I wasn’t sure that I was ready for more than what had already happened.
As if reading my mind, Asher gave me a soft smile and stepped out of the bathroom, closing the door behind him.
Twenty-Three

Ishouldn’t have watchedAsher get Violet off in the bath, but when she’d locked eyes with me, I hadn’t been able to move.I was frozen in place, growing harder by the second as I watched her unravel against his touch.
I made my way into the kitchen, looking for something to eat, when Asher joined me a few minutes later.I wanted to ask him about what happened but couldn’t think of the words to say.I grabbed a box of crackers from the cabinet, then scrunched my face as I put them back.I wasn’t a big snacker, but I was craving something sweet and salty, which was hard given that we rarely kept that kind of stuff in the house.I turned to face him, noting the look of pure happiness on his face.His eyes met mine and it was as if he could see the unspoken questions lingering on my lips.
“Yes.Whatever you’re thinking, the answer is yes,” he said.
I nodded, knowing that for now, it would have to be enough.
He gripped the edge of the counter, and I could tell that he was trying to keep himself in line because neither of us wanted to do anything that would jeopardize our chances of having something real with Violet.It was never just about sex for us with her.The second we brought her into our house and started to get to know her, we both knew this would be different.Violet wasn’t just some girl we wanted to fuck.She was someone we could both see ourselves falling for.Shit, I had already started, and there didn’t seem to be anything that would stop me at this rate.
Asher grabbed a bag of chips and headed to the couch when Violet walked in.She stopped in her tracks as if surprised to see us.I offered her a smile as I noted the cute—but flimsy—pajamas she had on and grinned harder when I noticed the pink eye mask on top of her head.
“Sorry.I didn’t realize anyone was out here,” she apologized, looking down at the floor.
“You never need to be sorry,” I said, grabbing a bottle of water from the fridge and watching her.“This is your house too.”
“I guess everyone was in a snacky kind of mood,” she observed, looking at the crackers sitting on the counter before glancing at Asher.“I thought it was just me.”
“Want me to make you something to eat?”I offered, suddenly feeling the need to do something—anything—to keep me occupied so I didn’t obsess over wanting to touch her.
“I actually came to sneak a few cookies,” she said with a giggle as she walked into the kitchen and opened the pantry.“I had a sudden craving for something sweet.”
“That’s funny.Me too,” I mused, noticing the way her skin flushed at my words.
