Chapter Twenty-Three
Gideon
It had been about two weeks since we had arrived at the hotel.Life was good, or at least better than it had been where we were in Detroit.There were no attacks, no threats against our life, and Portage was a decent host.
That first night, he had invited us to have our first meal with him, and Angelina shared with us all she had learned.I was impressed, to say the least.I had been aware that human-turned could do things with the elements, but I had no idea they could mask something as big as this hotel.
Since then, Portage had allowed us to communicate with the other groups.He also included us in news briefings and meetings to discuss the possibilities of what we could do.
When asked what he was waiting for, he had reluctantly admitted that he would need the assistance of the mistress to continue.He had told us that her power, and that of other reborns, would be imperative in helping us win this war.
We had also learned that he had several other reborns here at the hotel, although we had only seen two of them.Another mated couple that we quickly became friends with.
I stood facing the mirror and studied the scar on my face.Since we had arrived, Angelina had said she didn’t want to work on that one anymore.She didn’t want to let on to Portage what she could do but told me that soon, she would help me with my other problem.
Just the thought of that brought stirrings to my groin.While I still could not get a full hard-on, I did have more feeling, and I felt more blood pooling there, especially when Angelina was around.I didn’t want to ask her to do it because I was mortified that she had seen it in the first place, but part of me wanted to beg her to see if we could repair more.
There was a knock on the door, and I found Angelina and Corbin standing there when I opened it.She wore a sultry smile on her face, while Corbin looked like the cat that had eaten the canary.“Can we come in?”
“Sure.”I stepped back, not looking her in the eye in case she saw something of what I had been thinking about.“What’s up?”
“Nothing much,” Angelina said, “but I thought you might be interested in some healing.”
I quickly averted my eyes and cleared my throat.“You don’t need to do that.I appreciate all you have done, though.”
Corbin laughed.“Come on, man.I know you are dying to know if she can heal you more.Have you not noticed how many hot women are here?If I were you, I’d want to be scoring with all of them.”
I laughed uneasily.“Yeah, I have noticed, but I’m used to this.”
Angelina came to me, putting her hands on my chest and pushing me back slightly.“You deserve more, Gideon.Let me give it to you.”
I closed my eyes.“It’s okay.”
“What are you afraid of?Me doing this?Or it not getting any better?”
“Either.Both.Or maybe I just hate that you have seen how mangled I am in the first place.”
“Well”—she pushed me more, and my legs hit the edge of the couch—“I’ve already seen it, and I want to see if I can heal you more.”
“Angelina—”
She leaned forward, staring at me intently as her eyes began to glow.“Don’t make me compel you.”
I sighed in resignation.“Fine.”
“Does Corbin need to hold you down this time?”she asked with a smirk.
“No.I think I can handle it.”
“Okay, then he can just watch.”
“Does he need to?”
“Maybe he wants to,” Angelina cooed as she brushed her lips against mine.I felt my blood stirring and heading south.Even though she had already seen it, I hated her seeing it again.
Angelina ran her hands down my chest to my waist and began to unbutton my pants as Corbin took a seat across from us.
“Dude, you’re really going to watch?”
