Archer scissors his fingers inside Lyric, which has her pressing herself into me as she squirms. I nip at her chest, leaving a mark and she responds by pulling hard at my hair, sending a jolt of electricity through me. Fuck! This is so hot, I can’t stand it. I want to touch her more. I want to feel her around me.

My hand drifts down to her thighs and strokes over them, then dips between to trace over her lips, toying with the wet seam. As I glide my fingers through, her back arches and a loud keen escapes her. “Don’t stop,” she orders.

The wet squelch of her dripping cunt fills the room as I touch her, swirling my fingers over her clit. It’s so silky, so soft that I feel instantly addicted, craving more. As I move my hand down to push inside her, though, she pulls away from both of us, struggling to catch her breath.

“Okay,” she says, holding a hand out to keep her distance. “I want Levi to fuck my ass while Archer watches,” she says.

Archer slips off the bed and settles next to Lyric while I move around him and climb up behind her, eager to feel the tight heat of her hole around me. The bud winks at me as I spread a generous amount of lube over myself, lining up to sink inside.

I nearly come on the spot as her ass sucks me in, squeezing like a vise around my cock. I brace my hands on her hips as Iinch my way inside, then finally bottom out. Archer’s hand is on his cock as he watches Lyric’s tight heat swallow me whole.

“Fuck me,” Lyric breathes and I start pumping my hips, groaning as my cock feels nearly suffocated by the grip she has on me. I know I’m not going to last long, and I don’t, coming apart after only a few deep thrusts.

“Lyric!” I yell, collapsing on top of her as my seed is spent. Archer follows not long after, cum spurting all over the bed.

We lie there for a few moments, coming down from the exertion, but just as I reach out to touch her, Lyric pulls away and begins to clean up.

“That was great,” she says as she gets dressed. “But I have to go now. I’ll see you boys later.” She winks and exits the room, leaving Archer and me alone together on the bed.

“What the hell was that?” I ask, unable to move.

“I don’t know, man,” Archer says, breathing heavily. “She’s been like that all day.”

“Do you think she’s playing us?” I ask, turning to face him. “Maybe she’s up to her old tricks?”

Archer frowns, lines creasing on his forehead. “I knew I shouldn’t have trusted her. She had us by the nose and we let her.” Anger rolls off him in waves. “I can’t believe I fell for it,again.”

Frustration boils up. “I did too,” I point out. “We can’t keep letting her get away with this crap!”

“She’s not going to manipulate us any longer,” Archer agrees. “Whatever connection we might have felt with her the other day, it was probably an act on her part. We have to be careful. From now on, we’re going to make sure she can’t get the upper hand on us ever again.”

“Whatever it takes, right?” I ask, jerking my head upward. Archer nods, eyes going cold.

Lyric might think she’s the one in control right now, but nothing could be further from the truth.

Sitting in the common room with Levi and Archer, the frustration in the air is palpable. My brothers have just explained how Lyric has changed the game to bend them to her will. They detailed all the ways she showed up, flirting with a new look and a new attitude. Then seduced them, only to reveal she’s been playing us the fool all along.

“She's doing it again,” Archer says, his voice low but edged with fury. “She's trying to manipulate us, make us feel something for her.”

Levi nods, his jaw clenched. “We can't let her walk all over us. We need to show her that we’re not to be messed with.”

“Are you sure she was trying to manipulate you?” I ask. “Did she say that she was doing this to get back at us?”

“It doesn’t matter!” Archer argues. “She’s always been manipulative. If we fell for her tricks before, obviously, she can fool us again.”

“I thought things were changing,” I say, feeling nauseated. “I thought we were finally about to get past all the bullshit from high school.”

After everything the other day, all the tears, the punishment and the connection, was it all nothing? I want to throw up. It hurts, knowing that we can still be drawn into Lyric’s web.

“It looks like she is the one who hasn’t changed,” Levi says, bitterness in his voice. He shakes his head. “If it helps, I thought things were different too. I just don’t know what to do about it. We can threaten her scholarship again, but she seems to be willing to do whatever it takes to hurt us now.”

I look at my brothers, their expressions full of anger and determination. It makes me want to desperately protect them. We’ve shared such a deep bond, the two of them the only people in the entire world that I had after losing everything, twice.

I take a deep breath. “We have to do something big to remind her what her place is, that she’s nothing without us and she means nothing to us.”
