Hannibal raised his eyebrow as he took the items and wrapped the blissed out woman in the comforting blanket. Ink shrugged. “There’s a vending machine in the lobby.”
Hannibal smiled, realizing that his Brother had gone out of his way to ensure Jade had what she needed. There is no way a candy bar would survive any length of time in a saddlebag, so he’d sought out chocolate another way. Ink sat down next to them and moved her feet onto his lap. He stripped off her socks and shoes and slowly rubbed along her arches to help bring her slowly back from subspace.
The two of them had done this countless times. But something about bringing this beautiful woman back down to earth in a gentle way was special. Hannibal knew better than to say anything like that out loud. The man next to him had an absolute terror of getting serious with any woman.
He was the dreamer of their partnership, believing that someday they would find the perfect woman to complete them. Years of the women they played with scoffing at the idea of a long-term menage had taken its toll. But he didn’t give up hope.
He wasn’t ready to say that this woman in their laps was that one, but he thought she had the potential for more than a one-night stand. Hannibal rubbed Jade’s back gently, enjoying the warm, small, feminine form in his arms.
The truth, he only admitted in the privacy of his own mind, was that he was ready to settle down. Constantly changing partners was exhausting and growing almost as old as they were. The thrill he had gotten from wild nights and new women had long since lost its luster.
Their last partner, Didi, had been their regular girl for almost a year. Unfortunately, even he had to admit there wasn’t any sort of connection outside of the bedroom. When she had announced a couple months ago that she was moving back east, the parting hadn’t even been sad. Honestly, all he had felt when she told them was exhaustion at the knowledge that they would have to dive back into the pool of random women.
Jade stirred. Her body going from the languid motions of someone flying high in subspace to the squirming movements of someone feeling their ass burn after a good spanking. Hannibal cracked open one of the waters and held it up to her lips. “Drink deep for me, little Jewel.”
Her eyes fluttered open, and she didn’t resist as he brought the water up to her mouth. After a few sips, he pulled it away. Jade flinched as she adjusted her position slightly and her ass brushed against his outer thigh.
“That was amazing.” She groaned as Ink pushed his thumbs into the arches of her feet. “No. That feels amazing.”
Ink chuckled. “You like that word?”
She tilted her head a bit. “What word? Amazing?” Her laugh turned into a groan as Ink continued to rub her feet. “Well, if the word fits I don’t see why I need to pick another.” Jade looked up at him and then over at Ink. “Amazing is a pretty perfect word to describe how I’m feeling.”
Hannibal opened the chocolate bar and broke off a piece. “You should eat this.”
She opened her mouth and chewed on the chocolate with a smile. “Not that I’m complaining, but why should I be eating chocolate?”
“It helps with sub drop.”
“Sub drop, what’s that?”
Hannibal fed her another piece of the chocolate. “After the endorphins of an intense scene start to wear off, subs can experience mood swings or a drop in emotions if you don’t slowly ease them out of subspace.”
“Hmm. So you send me flying, give me orgasms, and take nothing for yourself. And I get foot rubs, water, and chocolate after? I think I like this arrangement.”
Hannibal couldn’t hold back the laugh that burst out of his chest at her sassy words. “Glad to hear that.”
Her fingers danced a lazy circle over his name patch on his cut. “So you don’t want to…” her words trailed off.
He didn’t like the uncertainty in her tone. Hannibal tilted her chin up, so he was looking her in the eye. “We want to. But we’re not going to. Not tonight.”
“But another night?” She looked away, as if afraid of the answer.
Ink tapped her foot, causing her body to shake a little. “There will definitely be another night. But I think we need to lay out the ground rules first.”
The way Jade’s nose scrunched up in confusion made him want to tap it. But instead he brought the water back up to her lips and made sure she drank some more before he continued. “We’re gonna get all your contact info, Jewel. Then we’re going to send you a limits list.”
She jerked in surprise and winced. “A limits list? Is that really necessary?”
Her voice was small and almost scared. It was hard for him to remember that she was so new. To have this kind of relationship communication was essential, and he had found a limits and desires list to be essential. “Yes, it’s a sort of contract that sets limits and expectations so that there’s no confusion between the three of us as to what we all want.”
“Oh, it seems so impersonal. Shouldn’t we just see where this goes?”
“It’s anything but impersonal.” Hannibal teased as he rubbed her back in a soothing circle.
“What kinds of things are you talking about with expectations and limits?”
Hannibal enjoyed the fire that lit in Ink’s eyes as he looked over at Jade. “It will spell out what we are and aren’t allowed to do to your body, as well as what things you want us to do to your body. It will also tell you the kinds of things we want you to do with us.”
