He opens his mouth and leans towards my foot, staring right at my eyes.
I start flailing. “Cody, I’m so fucking serious.”
He holds me still with his other hand and starts to lick my toes. The tingling feeling climbs up my leg, landing right in my groin. He smiles as I squirm, trying to pull my foot out of his mouth.
“That’s so disgusting, Cody! Stop!”
He doesn’t. The pajama pants fall, exposing my calf and nearly my knee. He kisses and licks his way up my leg. When he gets to my knee, the tickle is back, and I squirm again.
“Okay, okay, okay,” I plead, panting. I try to catch my breath when he pauses.
“Okay, what?” he asks, kissing my knee once more.
I flinch. “I’ll choose.”
He looks between my legs, and heat fills my entire body. “Okay.” He pauses like he knows the answer. “So, who?”
I try to pull my leg out of his grip, but he refuses to let go.
“None of you.”
He grins, biting my knee. My entire body trembles. My skin is so fucking sensitive now.
“Cody. Cody. Cody,” I pant. “Please, stop.”
He shakes his head, sucking my skin into his mouth now. I try to breathe through the sensation. After he’s done giving me a large hickey, he leans up and says, “Theo? Beck?”
Beckett grabs my other leg, and then Theo reaches for my arms.
“No!” I shout, trying to kick them off.
They don’t care.
Theo grabs my arms and forces me to lie down while Cody still makes out with my knee. My skin is going numb under his mouth. I keep trying to kick him off, but he doesn’t budge.
“Theo,” I beg. “Don’t do this.”
He pins my arms above my head with one hand, and with the other, he removes his mask.
I meet his eyes, and a new thrill runs through my body. He’s never shown any possessiveness or dominance around me, so this is new. His face is close to mine, and I can smell his cologne.
“Why are you doing this?” I ask.
His eyes slide down my face, memorizing me.
When they meet mine again, he says, “Because you need to choose. You’re not leaving until you do.”
“What do you mean I can’t leave until I do?”
“You’re smarter than that, princess.”
“Don’t call me princess.”
He smirks, looking at my lips again.
Cody licks my other knee, and I shiver, breathing hard as he continues his tongue against my skin.
Holy hell.
