Igniting Her

Chapter Eight

Slowly, I am drifting awake, and a painful pounding headache is there to greet me. Motherfucker that hurts. It feels like my brain is revolting and trying to drill its escape through my skull. I can't even bring myself to open my ey. The light filtering through my eyelids is enough to make my brain scream in protest. My head feels like it was run over by a convoy of trucks.

I am groggy and barely aware of my own body; it's warm like I am surrounded by a heated blanket that weighs down on me. Squirming into the heat, I find my face pressed into a warm firm chest that smells of spicy cologne. Mmm, that smells so good.
Tingling heat at the apex of my thighs has me snapping to reality. What the fuck?

Forcing my eyes open, the light causes my head to throb but the sight before me has an entirely different area pulsating. Firm planes of tanned abs are deliciously laid before me to feast my eyes on. Trailing my gaze, I follow a light line of dark hair to a firm v-line carving muscular hips. I can't stop my sharp intake of breath when I see the prominent outline of a large shaft and my heart rate spikes.

"Good morning, Bella," I hear a gravelly deep bass purr before I feel the firm press of lips to my temple.

I jolt in surprise as his voice rumbled against my cheek. Hesitantly, I turn and am shocked to find Asher with his hands behind his head, ginning down at me lazily. The position has his muscular frame displayed in all its glory; wide shoulders supporting sculpted biceps. The perfect cut of his strong jaw and the tantalizing curve of his plump lips has me mesmerized. He is drop-dead gorgeous even at this angle.

Asher leans his head back and sighs contentedly. Instantly, my eyes find half a dozen dark hickeys marring the taught flesh of his corded neck. Whoa, someone attacked him. A small part of me is jealous of the girl who got to enjoy marking him, but mostly, I am confused. Looking over my shoulder, I find Lucas with his front pressed close to my ass and my leg thrown over his hip, holding him in place. His head is thrown back, still fast asleep with his arm thrown over my midsection. Lucas' neck and collarbone twin his brother's, the thick muscles stained with maroon hickeys.

I try to remember how I got to be in this bed with the brothers, but draw a blank. The last memory I have is the confrontation with Jason, and everything else is a haze. Flashes of warm bodies pressed to my flesh, my skin feeling like a live wire and pressed lips surface, but nothing makes sense. What the fuck happened? I try to calm my racing nerves and anxiety as I wonder if I made a complete fool of myself.

My eyes turn back to Asher's neck, and his deep chuckle has me snapping up to his beautiful face. He is looking down at me, his thick lashes just covering his warm caramel hazels. "Admiring your work, hmm Bella?"

Shock and embarrassment rush through me, and I feel the hot flush creepy up my neck. Dropping my chin, I can't bring myself to look into his eyes and find disapprobation or disgust, but a strong finger has me lifting my head again. "Don't shy away and hide, Natalia," he mutters softly, but the command in his voice has me shifting, unconsciously pressing my ass into Lucas. He groans, still dead to the world, pulling me flush with him, his thick cock pressing firmly to my backside.

A stuttered moan escapes my lips, causing my eyes to snap open and lock with Asher's now alert eyes. They rove over me like he wants to devour me, finally locking onto my wide brown eyes, "Nothing to be ashamed of Bella." His husky voice ignites the flame of desire just simmering below the surface and my panties dampen. Asher's fingers trail from my chin, across my jaw and instinctually I tilt my head to give him more access to my flesh. "Lascivious Natalia is a marvelous experience," he purrs as his hands slips down and around my throat. Automatically, I am leaning into the pressure of is soft grip, and the heat that flares, has me pressing my thighs together searching for relief. A soft groan escapes my now barely parted lips and my mind is lost in whatever he is doing to my body.
