“If you don’t mind,” Viper says. “I’d feel better knowing you two were okay.”
“You’re welcome to stay. Just knock next time you come in the room,” Talon laughs.
“I will,” Viper laughs. “Hey. Actually. Why don’t you tattoo that girl?”
“You can tattoo?” I ask Talon happily.
“I sure can,” he smiles.
“Well… My parents, Logan, Vince, and Cheryl all said I was forbidden from getting a tattoo,” I say with a shrug.
Talon narrows his eyes at me before looking at Viper. “Got some time?”
“Fuck yeah,” Viper says.
“Are you okay with him touching you?” Talon asks me.
“Yeah. Why?” I ask.
“We are going to tattoo something that’s… pretty big. I think you’ll like it,” he says.
“Right now?” I ask.
“Mhmm,” he smiles. “We can do it up in the room so you can be comfortable.”
“Definitely watching Viper touch your girl,” Torch says.
“Mhmm,” Talon laughs.
I have been layinghere now for a while while Viper and Talon give me a tattoo. I have been asleep for most of it, but after years of being beaten and raped, I guess my tolerance for pain is pretty high. It’s almost soothing the way it hurts. At first, I was uncomfortable but now I’m just dazed.
“You awake?” Talon asks, kissing my forehead.
“Mhmm,” I smile.
“Wanna see it?”
“Is it done?” I ask as I jump up from the bed.
“It is,” he says. “Viper did most of the color. I did the other half.”
“Oh my God,” I say softly as I look at my arm. The tattoo spans from my shoulders down to my elbow. The left side is a dark and broken Medusa that fades into brightly colored flowers with vivid green leaves and vines. On the happy side there is a hawk and raven sitting together, almost snuggled. They have their backs to the dark side of the tattoo and stay facing the happiness together. It is detailed and the vines reach far.
“Like it?” Talon asks.
“I love it. So much,” I say. “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome, Little Flower. You have a great pain tolerance.”
“I dealt with you monster fucking me already, so tattoos are nothing,” I laugh.
“Let’s get this covered so you can get some sleep,” he says, gently kissing me.
“It’s so weird seeing you be gentle,” Viper says. “I like it.”
“Best of both worlds,” I say. “Amazing, almost painful sex, and then top-notch aftercare.”
