When he pulled back, he watched as her eyes slowly opened, glittering with a heat he’d only caught glimpses of before.
“My turn.”
His brother’s raspy words pulled him back from the edge. Rather than get up, though, Kaden drew his other leg up on the bed and shifted to the side, watching as Bristol locked lips with his twin.
Most people wouldn’t understand their desire to share a woman between them, but that was the only thing they’d ever wanted. Hell, sometimes Kaden couldn’t wrap his head around how it had come to be, but he’d long ago stopped trying to figure it out because this … here … with Bristol…
This was fucking perfect.
More so than any other moment in Kaden’s entire existence.
Keegan growled low in his throat as he leaned over her. Bristol’s hand remained curled around Keegan’s neck, and she was pulling him down as she leaned back on the pillow. Kaden knew he should put a stop to this. Come tomorrow, when the three of them were battling hangovers, he damn sure didn’t want regret to intrude, and there was no doubt in his mind that would happen. For Bristol, of course. Kaden wasn’t going to regret a thing, unless, of course, he managed to push her away with this little stunt. While he’d suspected she was interested in them, Kaden had noticed she did her best to pretend otherwise.
He was just about to call a halt when Keegan’s hand locked onto Kaden’s wrist. His twin relocated his hand, setting it on Bristol’s thigh before Keegan refocused on the kiss.
Bristol didn’t push his hand away, even as he slid his palm down her shin until he reached her ankle. He caressed her smooth skin, working his way up her calf, pushing the thin pajama pants upward. He wasn’t working to get them off her, merely wanted to touch, to explore. She was definitely as soft as he’d imagined, maybe softer.
God, he’d wanted this for so damn long. Wanted her.
Bristol moaned again, drawing Kaden’s attention to the way her lips were still fused to Keegan’s. Kaden didn’t move, didn’t interrupt, though he wanted to feel her mouth on his more than he wanted oxygen. He mimicked a statue, right up until she reached for him, her fingers gliding over his wrist. When she tugged, evidently wanting him closer, Kaden shifted, his thigh brushing hers. It was then she pulled back from Keegan.
Again, he waited for her to stop, but she surprised him, reaching for him.
Kaden had always prided himself on his self-control, but when it came to Bristol, it seemed to fail him. Epically. As his lips covered hers once more, he knew he needed to back off. The vodka had lowered her inhibitions, and if they moved forward, she would hate them both come morning.
And Kaden wasn’t willing to risk that.
“God, you’re sweet,” he whispered, pulling his mouth back and pressing his forehead to hers. “So fucking sweet, Bristol.”
She was breathing hard, as was he, more so when her hand slid beneath his shirt, her cool fingers brushing against his abs. Fucking hell.
This had to stop.
Kaden took a deep breath, reached for her wrist, and removed her hand, though it pained him to do so.
“You’re gonna leave, aren’t you?” she asked, her voice so soft he barely heard her.
“We are, yes. But when you’re ready …reallyready, Bristol … just know we’re waitin’ for you.” Kaden lifted his head, met and held her gaze. “Only you.”
He could see the hint of uncertainty in her eyes, but Kaden knew this was the only option. Falling into bed with her would be amazing. They could rock her world all fucking night long, but Kaden wanted a hell of a lot more than one night with her.
Forcing himself to his feet, Kaden met Keegan’s eyes. His twin nodded once. They were on the same page, thank God.
“Dream about us,” Keegan said softly, smiling down at her.
When Kaden stepped out into the hallway, his body ached with the need for her, but he was getting used to it. As it was, he’d wanted Bristol for so long, he wasn’t sure he remembered a time when he wasn’t aching for her.
“She’s gonna push us away,” Keegan said, lifting the vodka bottle to his lips as they headed toward the elevator to their floor.
“She is,” he agreed, but good things came to those who waited.
And Kaden was willing to wait as long as it took, because in the end, it would be so fucking worth it.
