“Finley Reyes. So, that makes that mouth-breather, Guzman?”

She nodded, casting her eyes down at him like he was scum, making me like her even more. “Yep. He thinks that because his big brother is in The Order, he’s a shoo-in. The tool can’t keep his mouth shut long enough to keep himself out of trouble.”

Chuckling, the guys settled back now that the douche was on the floor whimpering. “I’d offer to get you some ice, but yeah, suffer those purple balls. Anyway, I guess that means he’s out. What about the rest of us? What are our skills?”

After a few tweaks, we decided I would disable the cameras and security system. Milo and Nicole would go in to retrieve the book while Asa stood guard outside. Guzman was relegated to van duty with me to monitor things. When Cohen appeared a few minutes later, we explained our plan to him, and he nodded, seeming pleased.

“You didn’t want to be the inside person?” he asked me.

Shaking my head, I looked him in the eyes when I answered. “No, I know my skills and would be best at manning the systems. Based on the preliminary surveillance, they shouldn’t be too difficult.” He watched me, almost like he expected me to start laughing and say I was only joking and I’d be the one running into danger. When I didn’t, he nodded, looking at the rest of the group. Guzman was now sitting at the table, scowling with his arms crossed, and I bet they were protectively covering his man berries as well.

“Alright. Sounds like you’ve all thought of everything. You have two hours to eat and gather whatever you need. Meet on level 1 at 20:00. If you’re late, it’s a strike, and we leave without you.”

Everyone nodded, gathering their things, and we headed out the door. Together as a unit, we walked to the cafeteria to grab some food, getting it to go. The guys were quiet as we walked back, and I wondered what they were thinking, but my mind was too focused on the task and the need to ensure this one succeeded.

ASA

Finley was eating her food,but I didn’t think she was tasting it. She was lost in her thoughts as she ran over the plan in her mind. I knew this was important to her. She felt like she’d let people down in the past and failed; this was her chance to redeem part of her soul. But it didn’t mean she had to do it alone.

“Babe?” I asked, nudging her.

“Hmm?” She looked over, but her gaze was far away.

“I think you need to get out of your head before tonight.”

“What do you have in mind?” Cohen asked, a smirk beginning to form on his face.

I glanced to Milo, who was watching her, and I wondered how much I could push this. They were still figuring out one another and weren’t there in their relationship yet. But it felt like we needed to be a solid unit to succeed.

My sister’s relationship suddenly made sense to me. Not that I ever wanted to think about my twin being with seven guys, most of whom were my friends and teammates, but she’d created a family unit. She had an unbreakable bond with each of them, giving her the strength she needed to go up against our father and the Council.

We needed to forge ourselves together so nothing could come between us, and it felt like I was the commander of this ship. It was going to be me who brought us all together.

Standing, I held out my hand to Fin. She didn’t hesitate, taking it, making my heart swell at her absolute trust. Smiling, I pulled her into my arms, holding her close for a hug. Dropping my head, I whispered my plan into her ear.

“I think you should let us bring you pleasure. You need to quit worrying about all the things that could go wrong and relax. You coming a couple of times should do the trick.”

She sucked in a breath, pulling back to look at me. I showed her the heat in my eyes and nudged her with my erection. Lifting her chin, I dipped my head for the last bit.

“I know you’re not there with Milo, so let him watch. Think of this as a group bonding project. One where the goal is to give you multiple orgasms.”

“Let’s try not to kill me,” she teased, her eyes dancing with delight. My words had done the trick, and she was no longer locked away in her head. She glanced over at Milo, licking her lips as she nodded. “Okay.”

Cohen and Milo looked at us, unsure what was going on. Taking my command seriously, I turned to them both.

“Our first mission tonight is to make Finley forget and to relax. The best course of action for that is several orgasms. You both game?”

Cohen stood and was stripping his clothes in the next second. Milo hesitated, and I could see the no on his tongue. Fin didn’t need that right now.

“Your role is to watch and learn, Milo.” He glanced at me, some slight fear in his eyes, and I wondered if I’d read the room wrong. Was he not interested in her that way? Maybe he didn’t want to be part of a group scene? Didn’t Sawyer say they all had a boundaries talk? Shit. Perhaps I should have started there.

Before I could spiral too far, he nodded, standing as he took a deep breath. He didn’t take his clothes off like Cohen had, but followed him into the room. He tried to hide the bulge growing in his pants, making me feel marginally better about assuming things.

Picking Fin up, she giggled as I swung her in my arms, carrying her the rest of the way to the room. Even though this suite had two bedrooms, we’d all been bunking in the bigger one. It was another reason I’d assumed Milo would be okay with being with everyone. Cohen was already down to his boxers as he sprawled out on the bed, and I began to think about how I wanted this to happen. I was going to need to read some of those books like Soren so I could get some ideas on how all of this worked at this rate.

Tossing Fin on the bed, I grinned as she bounced, rolling into Cohen’s legs. “Let me help you out of your clothes, sweetheart,” he said, grabbing her.
