Whispered Words

Chapter Six

Xavier hadn’t been sure she’d go along, but he couldn’t have been happier.

Chloe had doubts. He understood that. But knowing Josh needed her had triggered her compliance. A generous woman, his Chloe. Their Chloe.

Xavier watched his brother try to resist Chloe and fail. Good move on her part, to wear something of Josh’s. His brother was all about ownership, a possessive bastard who needed to better learn how to share.

Satisfied she’d give them a shot at the future they all needed, he waited for Josh to relent.

“Don’t you want me?” She eased the shirt open and cupped a breast. Her taut nipples were a pretty pale brown, her size full enough to fit in his hand yet not spill over. And he had large hands.

Josh swallowed hard. “Yeah.”

Xavier wanted to shove him forward. To ask why he hesitated when everything they’d ever wanted knelt on the bed, his for the asking.

But he knew. Karen’s rejection had killed something inside his brother. Xavier had never admitted it, but she’d damaged him as well. Like Josh, he secretly hoped for a sense of normalcy. He knew they’d never be the average family on the block, but the chance at a wife and children meant something. Karen had been the first woman Josh had actively pursued with permanence in mind. Not including Xavier had been his first mistake. Picking the wrong woman his second.

Josh knew better now, but he was gun-shy. The sex last night had been incredible, but would Josh have the courage to step forward and experience it again? Because Xavier had felt the deeper sense of connection among them. More than the physical, their joining had touched something stronger. A sense of self mirrored between all of them.

“Scared?” Chloe taunted and sucked a finger into her mouth.

Josh growled and knocked her to the bed. His mouth on hers, his hands ripped the shirt from her as he kissed his way down her body.

In seconds he’d found her clit, and he drew her into his mouth, licking and sucking while he moaned his surrender.

“God, she’s hot.”

“Yeah.” Pleased Josh spoke to him, included him despite his obvious fixation on Chloe, Xavier leaned down to kiss her. The temptation of her breasts called, and he cupped the smooth mounds, loving her feminine differences. When she arched into him, he deepened the kiss and tugged at her nipples.

Her loud moan increased his urgency to take her.

“Together this time.” The image Josh sent him turned Xavier’s lust into a raging inferno.

Xavier released Chloe to strip naked. Then he took over for Josh. They switched places, with Josh now savoring her breasts.

Christ, Chloe was sweet. Her wet pussy needed to be filled. As he licked her clit, Xavier shoved first one finger, then two inside her heat. Like coming home, but it didn’t ease his desire. His cock throbbed, and he licked her harder.

“That’s it. Take me inside,” Josh murmured as he straddled her neck on the bed. “I love watching you suck me off.”

Xavier closed his eyes and focused on her scent, her taste. He didn’t need to see her pleasuring Josh to know how it felt. Josh’s hunger fed his own, and his brother’s earlier fantasy consumed him.

He sent Josh a picture of them taking Chloe, and Josh nodded. Xavier could feel him thrusting faster, his enthusiasm edging into orgasmic.

Josh pulled away from her lips and moved to her side. He panted in time with Chloe’s heavy breaths. “Chloe, we want to fuck you together.”

“God, I thought you were.”

Xavier released her clit and gave it another small kiss. Then he slid his fingers out of her and moved them lower, skimming but not touching her hole. “He means together, coming inside you down here.” Xavier curved his fingers around her ass.

“You ever had a man in here, honey?”

She bit her lip. “Once, a long time ago. I didn’t like it.”

“You’ll like it with us. With both of us loving you at the same time,” Josh promised.

Loving. Exactly. “Easy now, Chloe. We’ll make it good for you.” Xavier teased her, sliding his wet fingers around her rim. He skimmed her and inserted the tip of his finger inside her, stopping at the first sign of resistance. “Josh, find something we can use as lube.”

Josh disappeared.

“That feels good.” She sounded surprised.

“That’s nothing. Wait until we’re inside you. Taking you with us.”

“Taking me where?”

“To heaven, baby. Because when you come with us both, you’re gonna see stars.” He paused a moment and grinned. “It’s a bad, bad line, isn’t it?” She laughed. “Only you, Xavier.”

The mental connection bridged that last bit of distance between them. Xavier removed his fingers and eased over her. He had to kiss her again, to feel her mouth under his. He couldn’t get enough of the closeness. Her curves fit his hard muscles.

The softness inherent in her power, not a weakness, but a giving energy that completed the void only she could fill, drew him like a magnet. He could no more stay away from her than he could stop breathing. Like Josh, she made him whole.

He just had to convince her and his stubborn brother of the truth.

“You’re ours, Chloe. All ours.”

She shifted and caught his cock between her legs. Then, in a tricky move, she maneuvered so the tip of him rested inside her.

“Fuck.” He tried to stop moving, to wait for Josh, but she wouldn’t let him.

“Come on, Xavier. Fuck me. Make me so wet. Get me all ready for Josh.”

“Hurry up. She’s seducing the hell out of me,” he mentally yelled to Josh.

His brother snorted with laughter. “So pathetically weak. But I’m feeling your pain.” Josh returned moments later. “We’re in luck. I found a tube at the bottom of my bag. My just-in-case stash.”

Xavier sensed his brother’s large grin.

“Thank God.” He rolled over and let Chloe ride him. “That’s it, baby. Keep moving. Let Josh work you good while you come all over me.” To Josh he sent, “I’ll try to hold out, but you can feel what she’s doing to me.” Josh groaned. “Oh yeah. Go ahead and come inside her. This is going to take a while. I want her nice and stretched for me.”

“You two are really turning me on.” Chloe moaned as she rode Xavier like a stallion. He reached up and held her tits while she ground over him.

She vibrated with passion. And need. “Fill me, Xavier. All inside me.” Then she gasped when Josh placed his cold, wet finger at her hole and pushed. “Oh. Josh.” He teased. He prodded, he thrust a little more, bit by bit, until she all but writhed on top of Xavier.

“Fuck. I can’t hold on.”

Josh nodded, his breath overloud in the room. “I know. I’m gonna come hard in about three seconds.”

Xavier used all his discipline to stop moving as Chloe came hard around him.

It about killed him, but he held on to his climax while she clamped tight. Josh used the moment to slide another finger inside her. He stretched her slowly, getting her used to him while she continued to come.

“You feel so good,” he and Josh said together, in total unison. An odd happenstance, and one that occurred when they grew in tune with one another to such a degree they felt like one person.

“Yeah. More, Josh. More of you in me,” she said on a breath and whimpered when he removed his fingers. Then Josh pulled her off Xavier, who hissed when his dick slapped against his belly.

“Easy.” He stared at Chloe, so beautiful in the rosy afterglow of her orgasm as she settled on her hands and knees over him. He played with her breasts and waited for Josh to finish lubing himself. “He’s nice and slick for you, honey. And he’s ready.”

“Yes. I want you inside me, Josh.” She waited, unmoving.

And when Josh knelt behind her, his knees touching the outside of Xavier’s legs, Xavier felt so close to the pair, his eyes welled. “Yeah, take her, bro. That ass is all yours.”

“Push out. That’s it. A little stretching. Holy fuck, that’s tight.” Josh gritted his teeth as Chloe slowly backed onto him.

She paused and tried to move away. “You’re too big.” Then Xavier had an idea. “On the floor, bro. Take her a little at a time. But let me sit in the chair first. Let our girl make me happy while she takes you. This first time.” He sent Josh an image, and his brother tensed, hard and aching. Like Xavier.

“Okay, Chloe. Follow me.” Josh withdrew and pulled her to her feet while they waited for Xavier to seat himself in the big chair in the corner. Xavier spread his thighs and gripped himself, so hard and full. He needed to release, but he wouldn’t until Chloe could take him. First in her mouth, then in that hot pussy once more.

She was such a dream come true. She eyed him like a candied treat, and when she knelt in front of him and licked him from the root of his cock to the head, he nearly lost it. He literally trembled, caught in the palm of her hand.

Cupping and stroking him, she drew his sac up tight, his cum building, needing an outlet.

And then Josh was there, easing his way into her once more. The sensation of his brother’s cockhead breaching her hole had Xavier pushing into her mouth.

“Come on, Josh. I can’t last much longer.”

“Neither can I,” Josh said, his agony mixing with pleasure.

Chloe clutched Xavier’s thighs and sucked harder.

Unable to bear any more, Xavier cried out and came, jetting into her mouth as the ecstasy overwhelmed him.

He urged Josh forward, and his brother came inside Chloe’s ass, easing his way deeper into her passage through the slick glide of his own release. Josh pumped and pushed, until he rested the whole of himself within her, his dick still weeping with relief as he spent inside her.

Chloe swallowed every drop of Xavier’s cum before pulling away to plant kisses along his shaft and thighs. But she didn’t move her hips, caught in Josh’s firm grip.

“Oh yeah. Oh fuck, yeah.” Josh sighed and shifted, startling another moan out of their girl. “You still good, sexy?”

“I feel so full.” She tilted her head back, exposing the graceful span of her throat. Like a swan caught between two rivals, she poised herself, awaiting their next move.

The energy racing through the three of them was enough to keep Xavier semihard. Josh had yet to pull out of her, and he knew what his brother wanted.

This time they needed to both come inside her at the same time.

“I need a minute.” Hell, they all did.

But then Chloe did something unexpected. She opened the mental doorway holding herself apart from him, and Xavier stepped inside. Fully.

Chloe didn’t know how she knew what to do, but she felt so much a part of these men. She’d heard them for more than half her life. Had taken their knowledge and used it to better herself. They’d saved her countless times. Helped others less fortunate, and they’d been nothing but giving during her brief stay here. Her voices.

Her men. Her lovers.

She wanted to experience it all, for as long as she could. And she wanted it now. They’d recharged her batteries, and she was ready and roaring to go. But they needed a small boost.

“Xavier. I want you inside me. Give me that cum, right in my pussy, where it belongs. And then Josh can fill me up again, both of you taking me.”

“Loving you,” echoed in her mind, both of them talking in stereo.

“Yes.” She let them disengage and clean her up. Rough hands stroking with a gentle touch. They tenderly caressed her, cupping her breasts, her pussy, massaging her ass. Josh laid her belly-down on the bed and played with her, opening her all over again with a slick finger. He pushed it in and out, and all the while, Xavier told her how pretty she was, how smart and clever. How incredibly lucky they were to have her. One seduced with touch, the other with words, and she was lost to them both.

Xavier lay down on the bed next to her while Josh repositioned her. Like a rag doll, she let them place her just so. Xavier’s hard-on had returned, and he had no problem letting her straddle his waist and impale herself over him again.

“So good. You’re perfect.” He held her breasts, gazing at them with rapt attention. He pinched her nipples and pulled them. Distracting her from what Josh was doing with the thick tip of his cock.

“A little push, and I’ll be inside you again, sweet. Lean closer to Xavier.” She was going to have them both. The intimacy astounded her. All of them would be touching…everywhere. The startled thought the brothers might be intimately pressed together as well took her from the moment.

“It’s okay. It’s not weird to us. Hell, half the time we’re the same person anyway,” Xavier teased. “But we’re too focused on you to notice the rest of it. All for you, Chloe.”

“All for you,” Josh sounded through Xavier’s link.

She waited, forcing herself to relax as much as she was able, while Josh wedged his thick cock inside her and slid inside. Still a tight fit, but when he was in, he thrust fast and seated himself fully. He braced himself on his arms and began pumping, his rhythm in time with the subtle shifts of Xavier’s hips.

Dear Lord. They were incredible. “I feel you both. So good. Oh God. Yes, more.” She moaned and pleaded with them to be rougher, but they refused to hurry.

The playful, careful loving drove her out of her mind. And by the tense look on Xavier’s face, he felt the same.

“Damn, Josh. I’m close to coming. This is incredible.”

“I feel you everywhere,” Josh said to her, his voice full of wonder. “It’s like I’m fucking your ass and your cunt at the same time.” She could only imagine, and then she no longer cared as Xavier bumped her clit once more. Chloe cried out her orgasm as the pair of them quickened their pace.

She knew the instant they succumbed to the pleasure, could feel the power blasting through them into her, until she returned it. Lights flickered beneath her closed lids as her lovers came inside her, filling her until she was overflowing with bliss.

It took them some time to come down, and when they did, she could barely move. Xavier or Josh tended to her while the other grabbed a towel to clean up the mess. When they’d finally made themselves at home under the covers, Chloe lay between them, Josh and Xavier on their sides propped up on their elbows, watching her.

She could only be thankful neither man could read emotions. She wanted to cry at the beauty of their joining. Sexy, hot, and so loving, they’d given her a treasure she’d never forget. Her twin lovers could only have come straight out of her deepest fantasy. And for just a second, she imagined they loved her as much as she could see herself loving them.

Josh blinked several times, and a wash of psychic energy spilled into the air.

His grin widened until it threatened to split his face. “Well, now.” The room remained quiet. Then Xavier chuckled. “I told you so.”

“I don’t suppose you plan to share?” She sounded as tired as she felt. “Never mind. I’ll bug you about it after my nap.” Before she could help herself, she fell asleep with a smile on her face, tucked between the men she’d fallen hard for, despite herself.

Josh didn’t know what to think. The future with Chloe seemed impossibly bright…if he and Xavier didn’t screw up this time at the cabin. They could have Chloe and a pair of dark-haired, light-eyed twins running rampant at home. Or they could die badly up here, away from family, in the snow, at the hands of vermin like the Werlins. And if that didn’t kill them, any fuckups at home would see one of them dead while a bastard plunged a knife into Chloe in her bedroom, again and again.

“She’s what I want,” Xavier said without a doubt. “She’s right for us. Us, Josh. Not you, not me. Us.”

He heard what Xavier didn’t need to say. Karen would have come between them, even if she’d stuck around long enough to hear his marriage proposal. Chloe understood them. She had abilities tied to theirs, for Christ’s sake. How much more perfect could she be?

“Yeah, yeah. Us. I hear you.” The smug satisfaction coming from his brother annoyed Josh. “But I found her first.”

“Bullshit. I found her first. It was my voice she heard.”

“But my vision saved her before you warned her.”

Xavier tried but couldn’t come up with anything to best him. Juvenile though Josh knew the discussion to be, he didn’t care. He needed an edge over Xavier, because he had a feeling Xavier and Chloe had already bonded in some way. His brother could talk to her whenever he wanted. A damn bridge, he called himself.

But Josh had to wait to be linked up, and it grated.

The long sigh from his brother drew his attention. “I can read you like a book.

A bad book with a terrible ending. Get off it, bro. She’s not yours or mine. Chloe’s ours, and she’s strong-willed enough to take off and not come back if we screw this up. Man, you’ve been dreaming about her since we were kids. Can you finally accept her? Not for you, but for us?”

“It’s always been an us, hasn’t it?”

Xavier nodded.

“We’re not like other people, Xavier. Not like the twins either.” Their brothers, Justin and Kyle, weren’t so closely tied.

“No. I like to think of us as special. Not short-bus special, but superstar special.” Xavier grinned at him. “And nothing is going to make us happy except the one woman we both love. Don’t bother denying it. She’s been with us for half our lives. Don’t take that away from us. She’s ours. We’re going to have to work together to convince her of that.”

“I never thought we’d have this.” Or at least a shot at it. The chance that it could all blow up in their faces didn’t leave his mind. The Werlins and her crazy stalker were the least of their worries, really. Because Josh had a habit of fucking up at the worst possible times.

“We don’t have it yet. Keep a lid on all your insecurities, numbnuts. Let’s get Chloe to safety; then we’ll deal with our new family. And whatever you do, don’t tell her what to think or how to act. Let her come to it on her own.”

“I’m the easygoing brother, remember? You just keep your temper, and we’ll be fine.”

Xavier snorted and lay down on his back next to Chloe. She turned to face him, and Josh spooned her from behind. “Rest up, Mr. Sensitive, while I take watch. And pray Chloe doesn’t get all embarrassed and back off from us when she wakes, the way she almost did this morning.”

Josh hugged her tighter, content when he felt his brother’s hand graze his before Xavier left the bed. He prayed he could do right by her, by Xavier, and by the future he wanted so badly to come to pass. Then the sleep he hadn’t expected to come overtook him.

When Chloe opened her eyes, the memories of what had happened in this bed came to her in one large, impossible picture. Sex with two incredibly hot, giving men. Strong, powerful, and they wanted her.

Xavier had shown her Josh’s vulnerability, a brief mention of his ex, Karen.

Chloe could see his hurt, felt it as if it was her own. She’d never been that close to anyone, but she knew if Xavier and Josh suddenly walked away, she’d feel just as pained. It couldn’t have been easy for Josh to suffer that kind of rejection from someone he thought he loved.

And the way he looked at her, the way he felt… She wanted so badly to believe it was real. An arm tightened around her waist, and then something hard prodded her pussy.

“Hey, Chloe. You awake, finally?” He pushed inside her. On their sides, the positioning was somewhat uncomfortable, but waking to Josh sliding inside her took the awkwardness away. “Hook your leg over mine,” he whispered and tongued the shell of her ear.

She moaned and moved her leg, giving him better access as he thrust into her, pulled out, and thrust again.

“I love fucking you,” he said in a gritty voice, and then his hand moved lower down her belly, past her pelvic bone to her clit. “Your hair is soft, but here, you’re so wet. So sweet.” Josh slid his fingers over her clit and continued to play as he fucked her.

“You feel so big inside me,” she said between breaths. “Oh God. Yes. More.” He had her on the verge of coming. That thick cock inside her, his fingers strumming her nerves until she wanted to fly apart. He kissed her neck and cheek and whispered, “I think I love you.”

And she exploded. She cried out as she came, aware he stilled and moaned as he emptied inside her, jerking and pulling her tight against him.

“Thanks a lot. You two are making a mess out of me,” Xavier sent her, amusement and a lazy satisfaction coloring his words.

“Should have warned Xavier about that, I guess,” Josh murmured. He turned her head and kissed her hard on the mouth. “Christ, Chloe. I feel like I’m a walking hard-on around you.”

She took that as a compliment. “Yeah, well, I’m not exactly frigid around you and your brother either.”

He withdrew and pulled her into his arms. He hugged her tight. “God. This is so perfect. I’m so afraid I’m going to do the wrong thing or say something off, and you’ll leave. Don’t go, baby. Don’t leave now that we’ve finally found you.” She blinked and pulled back to stare at him. Josh’s heartfelt plea struck her, because his sincerity couldn’t be denied.

“Look, you don’t have to say anything.” His gaze traced her features, and she wondered what he saw when he looked at her. “We’ll give you all the time in the world. But Chloe, please, just give us a chance to show you what we could all be, together.”

“Be?”

“As a family. You, me, and Xavier.” His grin turned mischievous, and she saw a side of Josh that captivated her. A carefree, boyish happiness lit him from the inside out. “I’ve seen what our future can hold, Chloe. And it’s nothing short of perfect.”

“What? What did you see?”

His smile faded. “A few things. Some good, some bad. We’ll have to get through the bad to find the good stuff. And you have to take a lot on faith.”

“I have before, and it’s never steered me wrong.” She took his stubbled cheeks in her hands, not surprised to see him so clearly now. The love he felt, she felt as well. But she was scared to tell him, afraid her happiness could be so easily wiped away before she could explore it. She wanted him and Xavier to really know her before she put herself out there. To give them extra time to decide if they wanted to go their separate ways.

“Chloe, it won’t work.”

Just what she was afraid of. She cleared her throat. “What won’t work?”

“The silent treatment. This, us, it’s real. It won’t go away. No matter what happens, I’ll always love you.” The truth shone in his dark eyes. “I’ve seen the real you for years. I know you, even though you don’t really know me yet. I can wait. I’ll prove it to you.” He smiled. “You already know I’m a freak, and you haven’t run, so I have hope.”

She laughed. “Yeah, well, I’m not exactly normal.” She blew out a breath. “Sex with two guys. Twins. Oh man. I’m a slut.”

“My slut.”

“Thanks, Josh. I feel so much better now.”

He tickled her, and they laughed together until nature called.

“Oh man, I need to go clean up. I’m a mess.”

He grimaced. “This bed’s a mess. Time to clean up. Or we could leave it and make Xavier sleep in the wet spot.”

“I heard that.”

She shared a grin with Josh, then called dibs and darted to the bathroom.

After a leisurely shower in which Josh showed her how much pleasure could be had under running water, they dried off, dressed, and joined Xavier in the living room.

Unfortunately, Xavier didn’t look happy.

“What? What’s wrong?” she asked.

“Sam called. Apparently Chloe’s boss is less than pleased with her. He said she’s out of a job unless she comes back to town today. And he ordered us—”

“Ordered?” Josh asked.

“Yeah, ordered. The dick said we have to come with her, because some guy named Avery said if we don’t, we’ll… Oh hell. He’s having a vision,” Xavier said to Chloe.

Josh froze by her side. She felt that familiar tingle that told her his precognitive cloud had settled over him.

Then, as if in slow motion, he shoved her to the floor and covered her body with his own while yelling at Xavier to take cover.

An explosion of bullets shook the cabin, and then bone-deep dread settled in her bones. Not a promising start to the rest of her life with the Doublemint twins by her side.
