“I’m still bitter. I can’t smell the flesh,” Cyrus whines. “You owe me a burning carcass, Lev.”
I ignore everyone and everything except my sister as we pile into the limo. “You okay?”
“I am now.” She moves closer and whispers, “Did you know Zeke was so lethal?”
I shake my head. “No.”
“I had such a crush on him. I assumed you were stupid for years because you said he was your friend and not your boyfriend,” Mona said, her mouth tipping up in a small smile. “But I feel you, sis. Why settle for one when you can have three? Bet you feel safe knowing they’d all kill for you. I sure do.”
I belly laughed, and the men in the limo turned to look at me.
Cyrus cocks an eyebrow. “Care to share the joke with the class?”
I grin. “I was thinking that you’re all crazy, but I love you.”
“Whoa, you better not be loving this guy over here,” Cyrus says, pointing to Alaric. “My self-esteem can’t handle another pretty boy. Lev is already too much.”
“I’m happily taken,” Alaric interjects.
“I think three is more than I can handle,” I say as I hug my sister.
“Will you stay?” Mona asks, gazing up at me. “I’d like to have my sister around for more than a few weeks at a time.”
“If she had, you wouldn’t have been in this mess,” Lev mumbles.
I turn to him and glare. “I think you mean if you hadn’t taken her.”
“Wait, Lev was the one who originally kidnapped me?” Mona asks in shock. “Dude, I thought you were the smart one. Why didn’t you tell me? I would’ve played along. Now she’s gonna make you beg like a puppy until she forgives you.”
Lev shrugs, a sly smile on his lips. “I’d beg your sister until the end of time if it meant she’d be by my side.”
Mona glances at me. “Okay, that’s some Romeo and Juliet shit. How the heck are you the one with all the luck? I’m lucky if a boy looks at me.”
I laugh and hug her closer. “You sure you’re okay? They didn’t do anything to you?”
“I’m fine,” Mona says firmly. “Other than shitty food and a disgusting toilet, nothing happened. But do you think I could take martial arts classes?”
“Oh, yes,” I say as relief floods me. “I’ll get you trained by the best.”
Chapter 24
Cyrus-Age 30
Present Day
“So, are we gonna fuck or not?” I ask. “Because I’m getting jealous of soap suds over here.”
Azadeh laughs as she glides the loofah along her skin. It’s been weeks since she’s fucked any of us. Mona was home, and all she wanted to do was spend time with her sister. I love Mona, but that girl is a grade-A cock blocker. She also didn’t want Zeke and me to fuck. I’m not sure what me getting ass with Zeke has to do with Mona, but she point-blank told me the only place I could bust a nut is in my shower. When I tried to argue that Zeke and I could move to the other side of the manor, she said no. I would’ve broken her rules, but Zeke, the fucking goody-goody, can’t tell a small white lie. Then again, why would Zeke put up a fight when she said he could still work on Lev’s issues? That meant he was getting banged because Lev’s issues were all about his aversion to physical touch.
“Listen, Az, it’s been twenty days. Twenty.” I flex my forearms. “My right one is substantially bigger than my left. It’s your fault that I’m lopsided.”
She opens the glass shower door and pokes her head out. “No one forced you to masturbate so much.”
I growl. “I had no choice. You made me choose between my dick and balls falling off or my right arm looking like The Hulk, while the left one became Bruce Banner.”
She shrugs before turning her face to the cascading waterfall from overhead. “Well, Mona is back at school, so you’re welcome to fucking Zeke again.”
Oh, the little brat. I slide open the glass door and jump into the shower with her. Azadeh yelps as my hand circles her throat, and I slam her against the wall. “You know what happens to an animal when you starve it too long?”
I crush my lips to hers and kiss her passionately. Her lips open for me, and our tongues tangle with desperation. I want her to comprehend how much I need her, not only sexually but in every single way. “You know how insane it is to want to consume someone. I now comprehend the unhinged passion of those crazy men in those dark romance books you used to read. The ones that literally eat the flesh of women they love. Fuckin’ psychos, I want to fill myself with you. The hold you have over me has driven me mad.”
