Brother’s Best Friends Are My Mates novel Chapter 89

Jesse

The sounds escaping Lia right now were driving me mad. She was on the bed, bouncing on top of Colby’s cock. I was stroking my own slowly, not wanting the moment to be over.

Her breasts were bouncing, moans spilling from her lips. Colby held onto her hips tight enough to bruise. I remember the one time I left bruises in the shape of fingerprints on her hips.

It was beyond enticing to leave my mark on her. All of us probably felt that way at some point.

When Lia did come, she collapsed on top of Colby’s chest. He lifted her off, finishing outside of her. She whimpered, rolling over and spreading her legs.

“Jesse, please.”

I groaned, surprised I didn’t come at once.

Colby climbed off the bed and I sat down where he had once been. I pulled Lia into my lap, allowing her arms to drape over my shoulders. She could do little but cling to me in desperation.

It was as if she were nothing more than a rag doll. I knew I wasn’t going to last long with her whimpers of pleasure and the way she was gripping my cock every time I thrust inside her.

The other guys were around the hotel suite. I could smell them and hear their growls of pleasure. It was strange at first to get used to hearing these noises all the time, but now it was second nature.

We shared a mate—one mate. With their being four of us we were going to have to essentially get used to seeing each other in such states.

I was a little apprehensive about it before but now I was fine with it. So was everyone else.

Rain took some time getting used to it, him being the shyest out of all of us. But one look at Lia in the throes of passion and that was enough to make him realize he didn’t give a shit who was watching.

When I came inside Lia, I growled. I had to bite down on my lip to not bite down on her neck. There was no neck biting until the official mating ceremony where we would all bite Lia and she would bite us. From there, we would kiss and allow a little of the other’s blood to get into our system.

It was a way of becoming one. I never thought we’d be doing the mating ceremony so soon, but Lia was insistent on it.

Gabi’s situation had woken us all up. Life was to short and sometimes you had to be a little bit impulsive.

After I came inside her, the two of us just lay there for a while. I felt Lia slump against me, mumbling something under her breath.

“Lia,” I murmured, kissing the side of her head.

She muttered something, slowly opening her eyes.

“What?”

“I’m still inside you.”

Lia squeaked, jerking upright. Laughing, I helped her climb off my lap, my softening cock slipping out of her.

“Can you go grab some washcloths?” she asked me, yawning.

I nodded, kissing her on the forehead. “Yeah, just give me a minute.”

When I returned, she was nearly asleep. I was able to wash her off without even waking her, tucking her under the sheets and glad I managed to not wake her.

It was a surprise I didn’t but I guess that was how exhausted she was.

Yawning, I snuggled in beside her.

It was time to sleep.

Lia

As we walked through the front door, I stretched my arms over my head, feeling pleasantly exhausted from the weekend. The trip had been exactly what we needed-fun, intimate, and completely free from distractions. But the moment we stepped inside, Michael was waiting for us, arms crossed, eyebrows raised.

“So,” he said, his tone unreadable. “How was the weekend?”

I opened my mouth to answer, but Rain beat me to it.

“It was amazing,” he grinned. “We got this huge suite, and the bed was massive-“

Jesse smacked him on the back of the head before he could continue.

Rain yelped, rubbing the spot. “Ow! What was that for?”

Jesse shot him a pointed look. “Because Lia is Michael’s sister, you dumbass.”

Michael exhaled sharply, pinching the bridge of his nose. “Yeah, no details, please. I was just being polite.”

Colby, ever the diplomat, cleared his throat. “It was a good trip. Relaxing. That’s all.”

Michael eyed us suspiciously but seemed to accept the answer. “Good. Because if I hear even one thing I don’t want to know, I’m moving out.”

I groaned. “Michael, you’re being dramatic.”

He shook his head. “No, I’m being reasonable. And I know Rain. He has no filter.”

Rain opened his mouth to argue but then seemed to think better of it. He huffed instead, muttering under his breath about ” unappreciated storytelling.”

Michael sighed. “Glad you’re all back safe. Now, I’m going to go bleach my brain just in case.”

As he walked off, I turned to my mates, shaking my head. “See? This is why I told you to behave.”

Jesse smirked. “I did behave. It’s Rain you have to worry about.”

Rain scoffed. “I was just setting the scene!”

Colby patted his shoulder. “And now you’ve set Michael on a path of deep regret.”

I covered my face with my hands. “Next time, we’re sneaking back in.”

Matt chuckled. “Please. You think Michael doesn’t have the whole house wired for sound?”

I gasped. “You think he heard-“

“NOPE,” Michael’s voice called from down the hall. “And I don’t want to!”

Jesse burst out laughing. “Yeah, I think we broke him.”

Rain sighed dramatically. “No one appreciates my storytelling talents.”

“Tell that to Michael’s therapist,” Colby quipped.

I groaned again. My mates laughed.

Rain sniffed again, wiping his face aggressively. “Shut up.”

Michael blinked. “What-why-“

“You idiot!” Rain cut him off, his voice cracking. “Did you think we wouldn’t want you to stay? That we’d just be fine with you leaving? You’re family, Michael! You don’t get to just decide you’re in the way like some unwanted guest!”

Michael stared at him, completely thrown off. “Rain…”

“No, don’t ‘Rain’ me! You’re staying, no matter what. I don’t care how long it takes for you to feel like yourself again. I don’t care if you take over the entire damn house. Just stay.”

A heavy silence fell between them.

Then Michael exhaled sharply, running a hand over his face. “Jesus, Rain.”

“I mean it,” Rain muttered, looking down, his voice quieter now.

Michael looked like he had no idea what to say to that. His jaw tightened, his eyes flickering with emotion before he finally let out a shaky breath and pulled Rain into a hug.

Rain clung to him immediately. “You’re such a dumbass,” he mumbled into Michael’s shoulder.

Michael let out a weak laugh. “Yeah, I know.”

I watched them, my throat tightening, and when they finally pulled apart, Michael turned back to me.

“Well,” he said, voice rough, “I guess that settles it.”

“You were always staying,” I said softly.

Michael nodded, clearing his throat. “Yeah.”

Rain sniffled again. “And if you ever say you’re in the way again, I swear to god, I will make it my life’s mission to annoy you every second of every day.”

Michael rolled his eyes. “Like you don’t already.”

Rain grinned. “Fair point.”

I smiled, feeling the tension finally break.

“Alright,” Michael said after a beat. “I guess I should start getting my stuff in order, then.”

Rain crossed his arms. “Already ahead of you. I moved all your stuff back into your old room when you weren’t looking.” Michael blinked. “Wait, what?”

Rain smirked. “Yeah. Hope you weren’t too attached to your apartment because you officially live here now.”

Michael groaned. “You’re unbelievable.”

“And you love me.”

Michael sighed, shaking his head. “Unfortunately.”

I laughed. “Welcome home, Michael.”

Honestly, I was fine with Michael staying as long as he wanted. The same went to Gabi.
