Page 4 of Before. Then. Now.

Something inside me exploded.Light and sound no longer existed to me.All I could feel was Shaw.I didn’t realize I was chanting her name until she tenderly shushed me, her fingers slowing to a gentle rhythm, but she seemed fascinated by how hard I was clenching around her.

Turning my head, I met her lips in a surprisingly soft kiss that ironed her name on to a part of my soul.She nuzzled her nose against mine.“We can touch and suck and fuck each other.As often as we want.There are no rules when it comes to you and me, baby.None.I’m going to make you feel good, Vi.I’m going to own this little body.You are mine.”

“You’re mine, too.”

“Yeah, Vi.I am fucking yours.First.Last.Always.”

THEN

My favorite soundin the world reached my ears.Like a magnet, my gaze went straight to where Violet stood in her itty-bitty bikini by the pool.

Fuck.

All the blood in my head rushed south, tenting my board shorts in 2.6 seconds.Her head was slightly tipped back, so her hair cascaded over her shoulders, landing just a few inches shy of the small of her back.Her perfect ass jiggled ever so slightly, covered in nothing but a few scraps of purple cloth and strings.

Groaning, I angled my head to the right to get a better view.My mouth went dry when she took a few steps forward and hugged Shaw.She whispered something to her bestie before glancing over at me.

Ah, fuck yeah.I loved it when her eyes were on me, tracing over my ink and muscles.Nothing made my dick harder than when my wife watched me watching her.Did she even realize how beautiful she was?Doubtful.But that was another one of the million things I loved about the girl who had held my heart in the palm of her hand since birth.

Half the length of the pool separated us.Shaw and Jagger had come over to our house to enjoy a kid-free Saturday in the sun.A rare break before I had to endure football camp.We would be back in West Bridge soon enough, and life would be chaotic again.It was fine with me, as long as Vi kept laughing and I continued to be graced with the spectacular view I was currently enjoying.

“Stop it!”Jagger growled, dropping onto the lounger beside me.He made a whining sound when Vi and Shaw both looked at him and giggled.

Fuck.

I was tempted to just pull out my cock and start stroking.Wasn’t like everyone there hadn’t seen my dick before.It was just the four of us.No housekeeper.No bodyguard.Just the people who brought Vi joy, spending the day together.I was comfortable enough with my body not to be shy about my dick getting hard.When a man’s wife looked as good as mine did, it would have been an insult if I didn’t sprout wood when I was presented with such a delectable sight.I doubted our friends would be offended.

They had eyes that saw just fine, and I’d call them both liars if they didn’t agree Vi’s ass was reason enough to rub one out instead of crippling myself trying to fight my body’s natural reaction.

Jagger and I had been in sports together as kids and teenagers, so we’d seen each other naked plenty of times.And then there had been the countless weekends I’d been the designated driver for him and Lyric, chauffeuring their drunk asses around while they had sex with random girls in the back seat.

Shaw had made no secret of the fact that she’d seen my twin’s dick a few times.She’d said it to throw jabs at Jagger way back when, which had landed with brutal precision.And there were the many times she’d walked in on me fucking Vi.Casually, like I wasn’t balls deep in her best friend, the sweat pouring off me the only thing between Vi and me.

Shaw didn’t even blink.

But on more than one occasion, I’d caught Shaw checking out Vi’s ass.Or her amazing tits.Or looking straight at her lips when she was speaking.I got lost in all things Violet too, so I couldn’t blame Shaw.It was just those damned sighs Shaw made when she did it…

I didn’t want to admit they caused my dick to twitch.

“Stop what?”Vi asked, nibbling on her bottom lip like she was sweet and innocent—and not the sexy little vixen I’d fucked hard in our bed that morning.

“Stop…this?”Shaw tossed out and slapped her hand down on Vi’s ass.

“Fuck me,” Jagger groaned, looking away from the girls.I didn’t miss how he had to readjust his cock, but I was more interested in the way Shaw’s hand squeezed the flesh she had just spanked and jiggled Vi’s ass.

Hard.

Possessively.

The seams of my board shorts were no match for how hard my dick got watching Shaw bounce my wife’s ass up and down like she fucking owned it.My throat went dry.Had Shaw always been that hot?

My brain wanted to say no, but my cock was already weeping yes.

I tried to look away.Shaw and Vi teased and joked around like this all the time.The fact that I could feel the chemistry pouring off them at times?That was something I never let myself stop to think about.
