I mumbled my agreement.

“Are we just going to stand here?” I finally asked.

“Just be out of her line of sight when she comes in. I think that would best. Get her into the room before we lock the door. We have the key to leave. She can’t get out without it.” Jace held up a key which glimmered from the fireplace light.

I sighed and moved against the wall. I didn’t know exactly how this was going to go down, but I assumed we were winging it. The guys didn’t seem much on plans past that, and knowing that, I couldn’t argue.

So I waited silently, aware of every breath I took.

After what had to be nearly a half hour, the door creaked open and she stepped into the room. We silently watched as she walked further into the space, her moves tentative and oozing with nervousness. Like dark shadows, we gathered behind her.

My heartbeat thundered in my ears at what I’d never be able to change.

There was no going back now.

Chapter 15

Jace

Ilocked the door as Lily walked deeper into the room, her sexy as hell hips swaying as she moved through the incredibly dim light. To her, we’d looked like looming shadows.

She swiveled quickly to face me, having heard the lock click in place.

No running now, Lily Pad. No escape.

“H-Hi,” she choked out, twisting her fingers nervously in front of her as I advanced. She clearly hadn’t seen Caleb or Damien yet. Judging by how scared she looked, I was sure she’d lose her mind once she realized there were three of us in this room with her.

My pulse thrummed quickly through my veins, making me desperate to just throw her down and fuck the screams out of her, I wanted to savor this too, though, so I needed to get my shit in order. In a perfect world, I’d make love to her and make her first time with me something special, but we were beyond that now. I’d do my best to give her a good experience, but at the heart of it, I was bitter it came down to doing it this way.

I approached her like a predator, making her back away, her eyes wide beneath the mask she wore. I wanted that damn thing off her face so I could take all of her in.

My fingers brushed against her jaw, making her whimper softly as I loomed over her trembling body.

She made to back up again, but Damien had moved in behind her from the edge of the room.

She froze as his hands landed on her waist. Realizing there was more than just me in the room had to have sent her reeling because she pulled away from him and shoved past me, turning on her heel to watch us as she staggered backward to the door.

She stumbled into Caleb and turned in his arms.

They stared at one another for a long moment. The very real fear he was going to back out and just out us all weighed heavily on me. All he had to do was pull his mask off and tell her he was sorry. It seemed like a Caleb thing to do.

Damien tensed next to me, clearly having the same worries.

Instead of fuck us over, he invaded her space, forcing her back to us until we completely surrounded her.

Her chest heaved with her heavy breathing as she realized what it meant to be locked in this room with us.

I reached out and grasped her arm, my adrenaline in overdrive. Damien mimicked and took her other arm.

We worked like a well-oiled machine it seemed because Caleb moved forward and squeezed Lily’s face before crushing his lips against hers.

I never thought I’d be turned on watching someone else kiss my girl, but my cock was a steel pipe in my pants as Caleb devoured her.

She fought for all of a moment before she relented, allowing Caleb to take control of the kiss. His hand on her face moved to her throat where he trailed it to her chest before breaking the kiss off and moving away.

She stared after him, her chest still heaving, her small body trembling.

I couldn’t help myself. I jerked her out of her stupor from Caleb and tugged her body against mine before crushing my mouth against hers. I didn’t kiss her like I used to. I was rough. Unrelenting. Vicious.
