“Come with him, Sweet Flower,” Zev whispers in my ear. “Watch him come for you. It’s you on his cock in his mind, isn’t it?”
I nod my head, trying to keep my sobs from breaking free. I can’t take my eyes off Ren. He doesn’t know we are here yet. He ismoaning my name in his head, and it’s doing something to my brain. He groans deeply, and a moan slips out of me. I know he heard me, because fear immediately slips into his mind. He is too close to stop himself, and my orgasm pours out of me at the same time his does.
As soon as Zev releases me, I move away from him and Ren as quickly as I can. I end up curling myself into a ball on the couch at the front of the plane. Sobs rack my body, and I can’t make them stop. My eyes are squeezed shut, so when one of them touches my arm, I spiral.
“Don’t! Please don’t! I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. Please don’t hurt me,” I beg, almost screaming through my tears as I try to run again. Zev wraps his arms around me and hugs me against his chest. Humans are mostly water, so I focus on heating his body enough that he will let go of me. When he does, I sprint to the back bedroom and lock myself inside. I don’t know what to do, so I sit in a corner with my knees pulled to my chest.
“Astra,” Zev says softly, kneeling in front of me. “Baby, I need you to listen to me, okay?”
“Please don’t hurt me. I’m sorry, Zev. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to… I don’t know why…”
I am suddenly scooped up, but the moment I start to heat him up again, my mind empties of thought, and I nearly zone out completely. He sits me on the bed, and I can’t move, think, or even speak. He’s never used his abilities on me before, but the panic cannot find its way in.
“Ren, sit down,” Zev says.
“Zev, I…”
“Sit, or I’ll make you,” Zev says firmly. Ren sighs and sits beside me, and Zev kneels and takes my hands into his. “Astra, I need you to listen. I know you are panicking, and I know this isn’t helping by using my abilities on you, but I need you to listen, okay?”
“Okay,” I whisper. At least I can talk now.
“Astra, I’ve known since the day you got your abilities what was happening. You told me,” he says. “You asked me why you couldn’t hear my thoughts. I knew right then that you were able to read minds. That is also why your thoughts are so distant now. When Ren was consistently blocking his, I knew what you had seen in his mind. I see it on his face every time he is close to you. I recognize the urge he is fighting every second of every day. I’m not mad at you, okay? I’m not going to hurt you; I would never hurt you.”
“You knew?” Ren asks.
“Yes, and you have incredible self-control, by the way. I didn’t even make it two days on the island before fucking her in her sleep,” Zev says. “Marta, Mom, and Dad all saw it too. We all saw you were fighting it for her sake because she doesn’t understand, but I do. Okay? I’m not mad at you. I admire that you found other ways to keep control of yourself while giving her time to figure it out. Although if you had come to me, I could havehelped you explain it to her or at least been able to help lead her toward that understanding.”
“I was just afraid of upsetting you,” he says. “I know two people can instinctively connect to one person, but I didn’t know if that would be reciprocated.”
“I think it’s safe to say it goes both ways,” Zev chuckles. “Astra, can I let go of this hold, or are you going to try and boil me again?”
“I’m sorry,” I whisper. “I won’t.”
When I can move again, I stand and try to back up, but it’s Ren who grabs me. It happens so fast that I can’t stop how quickly I melt when he kisses me. “Please stop running,” Ren says softly. “You are safe, okay?”
“I’m so confused,” I admit. Ren takes my face between his hands and makes me look at him. The feeling washes over me so fast that it stuns me for a moment.
I love Zev.
I love Ren.
“There she is,” Zev says sweetly. “She understands.”
“Astra,” Ren starts to say.
“I love you,” I blurt out. “I love you. I love Zev.”
“We love you too,” Ren says with a smile. He is significantly more relaxed now.
“Now that that’s out of the way,” Zev says. “Will you two fuck and make this connection so she can stop sneaking around to see you jerk off?”
“It’s not up to me,” Ren says, looking at me. I can see the fantasies playing through his mind, so I share mine with him. We stand facing one another, sharing thoughts. He’s giving me time to accept this before he moves.
“Please fuck me,”I think to Ren. “I want it hard and unforgiving, just like in your thoughts while you come.”
Ren’s smile turns into a grin, and Zev laughs when he pushes me on the bed and rips my panties off. I move up to my knees on the edge of the bed with my chest on the bed. Ren grabs a tight hold of my hips and slams into me, making me scream out as he instantly finds a violent pace.
Ren grabs a fistful of my hair and pulls my head back, only for Zev to suddenly be in front of me. He grabs me by the face and joins his brother in fucking me to tears.
