"So you pitied me? You had Jamie and were worried about hurting my feelings, so you thoughtwhy not have her too?"

"What?" I snap and slam my hands down on my knees. "Who said that? For fuck’s sake, V, that's not true at all."

"Then what's the truth, Nate?! Because from where I'm sitting this was a ruse to break me and guess what? You did!"

"You are not broken," Jamie butts in, glaring at V.

Violet waves him off. "No. I'm not. But I was, and I worked damn hard to climb out of the shit I've been through. I'm just saying, they succeeded, why the hell are they here?"

"Because we love you both," Ellis and I say at the same time with so much feeling I swear my heart falls right out of my chest. Jamie grunts, and Violet takes a slow breath.

"How do I know that’s true?" Violet's voice wavers just enough to make me feel like we haven't lost her for good.

Leaning forward, I drop to my knees beside Ellis and crawl forward. The move is shocking to everyone in the room because I pride myself on being a Dom. But sometimes a Dom shouldn't be in the driver’s seat. Violet can hook a fucking leash to me and demand I do anything, and I'll do it. Jamie too. Ellis would follow.

"Because," I rumble, settling in front of her. I wrap my hands around the backs of her knees and tilt my head back so she can see all the emotion in my soul. "We will do anything for you, Violet. Our love twisted us and warped into toxicity for justfivefucking minutes, possibly ruining our futures with you both. We love you so fucking much we lost our control to jealousy. Now it's yours. Anything, baby. We are yours. Please hear us. We'll never hurt you ever again. I swear it."

Violet's stare has tingles rippling down my spine and even making my fingertips tingle. I think I blacked out. I'm not sure what the hell I just said or if it even made sense. Violet's looking at me like she's thinking really fucking hard, and I mentally kick myself for sending her right back into that beautiful brain of hers. I fear the more she thinks, the more likely it is that she will kick us to the curb.

Then she sucks the air out of the room and blood from my fucking brain. Spreading her legs wide enough to show me the damp spot her pussy left on her grey leggings, Violet short circuits my mind. My cock is ready and willingimmediately.

"And what if," she whispers in a sultry voice. Leaning forward, she places her snack on Jamie's leg. "I want to use you like you were planning on doing to my boyfriend?"

My tongue gets stuck to the roof of my mouth at the same time the scent of her arousal hits my nose. She's fuckingdrenched.

I hate how dull her eyes are as she challenges me. I want her happiness and glow back, but all I get is heat and cruel desire.

"What if I want my own revenge,baby?" Her fingers snap out and tug on a lock of hair that has fallen from my bun. "You'll let me ride your cock and leave you with absolutely nothing in return? Will Ellis let me make him feel used and nothing but a pawn?"

"Yes," Ellis replies instantly, shocking me enough to look back at him. His face is drawn in some form of sadness, but his eyes are lit with determination. I see a plan forming in his head, and I nod.

Turning back to my girl, I smile gently so her tender heart, which I know must be hurting right now, knows I'm happy with this arrangement. What Violet wants, Violet gets.

"Anything, baby."

Twenty-Five

VIOLET

My mind likes Nate's words and my body is thrumming with needy energy that Jamie left me with. It's the perfect mixture for me to make some really toxic choices.

I want to punish them. Dangle the dream in front of them and rip it away like they did to me.Like I did to them years ago, my aching heart reminds me.

When Nate said those things, explained himself, and crawled to me on his hands and knees, I felt myself slip. Ellis loosened me up with his desperation and obvious regret, but Nate's touch, proximity, and declaration to do anything made me crumble.

Jamie's presence did fuck all to cool me down. If anything, surrounded by all three of them again, I got even wetter. Jamie wouldn't let me clean up after eating my pussy like a starved man. He threatened to withhold my orgasm even longer if I put panties on under the gray leggings he chose for me.

I knew what he was doing. He was testing my control and I've lost. I just needed Nate to stop talking. Stop pulling on my heartstrings and trying to convince me he was worthy of my forgiveness.

Love bends rules.Love, loyalty, and devotion can alter truths.

My discomfort rose with each second Nate kneeled, staring up at me likehewas submitting tome. So I took it. I took his devotion and bent it to my will. Wielding my body like I used to, I stand and nudge Nate out of the way.

Ellis watches me with a touch of weariness in his eyes, but the growing bulge in his jeans tells me how much he wants me. My core feels hot and fluttery as I approach the instigator of my pain.

"Ellis," I hum, blocking out the red flags I'm igniting in my mind. I'm a walking red flag right now, yet they aren't running or telling me to stop.

"Bubbles," Ellis murmurs, reaching up and wrapping his hands around my calves much like Nate did.
