I kiss the top of her head and inhale her scent, then wish I hadn’t. “There’s nothing wrong with you. You’re on the edge because you have four vampires obsessed with you. We feed onyou every day. We share our blood, and that’s a powerful fucking aphrodisiac. And we’re constantly touching you or thinking about you. We’re permanently hard for you, and you’re feeling all of that with us. All four of us wanting youallthe time.” I press another kiss against her hair. “And all that energy has nowhere to go because, until you get your powers under control, we can’t let you come. Your orgasm might well bring about the end of days, and we can’t have that.”
She gives me a soft little laugh.
I press my lips to her ear. “You remember what I taught you about the doors?”
“Y-yes.”
Thinking of people like rooms with doors was one of the techniques that worked best for me when I first learned to shut people out, and it seems to work well for Ophelia too. “That’s my good girl. Now find the ones that are for Malachi and Axl. You gave them a color, right?”
“Yes. B-brown for Axl and green for Kai.”
I remember. Blue for me and black for the professor. The color of our eyes, she said. I take another breath, and my pulse slows a little more. Axl and Malachi remain unmoving beside us, giving us the space I need to get our horny elementai’s raging hormones under control.
“So find their doors and close them.”
She nods, inhaling deeply, and I match my breathing with hers, murmuring words of encouragement in her ear. I’ve already learned that she focuses better with that than with silence.
“I’ve found them,” she whispers, her eyes tightly closed. “They’re wide open. Full of bright light.”
She’s already so good at this. My clever little cupcake. “Pull them tight until not a sliver of light is showing. Not even a crack beneath the door.”
“But they’re so heavy,” she whines.
I flash my brothers a warning glare.
Axl shakes his head. “We’re not resisting her.”
Malachi shoots her a sympathetic look. “It’s the bond. It’s because of how strong it is.”
“You’re the most powerful person in this room, Cupcake. Now close the damn doors.”
She presses her lips together, her pretty face screwed up with concentration. “I… They’re closing, Xavier.”
The delight in her voice has me grinning like a goofball. “Keep going. All the way, Ophelia.”
She nods, a smile on her face now. “They’re closed.”
Pride grows warm in my chest. “Good girl. I knew you could.” I hug her tighter, resting my lips on top of her head, and she sighs, her soft body melting into mine.
I nod to Axl and Malachi, letting them know it’s safe to resume their fucking.
Axl grunts with satisfaction, and judging by the loud groan that comes from Malachi’s mouth, he’s sinking back inside him. I can almost feel Kai’s tight ass and taste his salty skin. My mouth waters.
Ophelia moans, but her pulse is steady and her skin is no longer blistering with pent-up desire. “You’ll still feel them, but is it easier now?”
She blows a strand of hair from her face. “Yeah.” Her voice is a soft purr, and it bypasses my brain and travels straight to my aching dick, which now twitches against her back.
“Dammit, Kai, your ass is so tight,” Axl growls, and the bed rocks gently as he sinks into him over and over.
“Fuck!” I grit out, watching the two of them and wishing I could bury my cock inside my girl and fuck her right now.
“You can join them if you’d like.” Ophelia’s sweet voice does little to ease the desperate need racing through me. I swallowdown the desire to flip her onto her back and fuck her so hard she screams my name, regardless of the consequences.
Instead, I inhale the sweet scent of her shampoo and squeeze her tighter. “I’m staying right here with you.”
“I’ll be okay.” The tremor in her voice is slight, but it’s there. She has a handle on her emotions and her raging hormones now, but I promised I’d be here for her. So that’s exactly what the fuck I’m gonna do. Hold onto my girl for dear life and think about the least sexy thing I can while Axl and Malachi fuck each other senseless.
She wraps her hands around my forearm and presses a tender kiss on my skin, but it’s enough to have my blood pumping harder through my veins. “Thanks, Xavier.”
