“And it’s important to remember that you can always say no.”
Her mouth opened and closed. “Please just ask me. This is making me nervous.”
One more look at the others, and I took a deep breath. “Remember when you said at Element that you’d always wanted all of it, but you didn’t imagine the way it would feel?”
I watched the realization dawn on her face. “Holy shit. I said that out loud?”
We laughed, and so did she. Brooks nodded. “Yes. You did.”
“I remember now.”
“Was it the truth?”
Her face deepened into a shade of red. “Yes. I’ve never told anyone that before. Was that the question?”
“One of them. The other is that if you had the chance to experience that, would you say yes?”
Trinity looked between the four of us in shock. Like she was looking for any of us to be joking, though none of us were. “Why?”
“Because that’s what we’re offering,” I told her. “All of it.”

My mouth dropped open a second before the heat, arousal, and longing hit. Because I imagined what Logan said. Right?
“What does that mean?” I saw the hesitation on their faces, and I quickly moved to clarify. “I mean, I know what it means, but what does it mean foryou? Because I’ve never done it before and I’m not sure. Not that I’m opposed, I would just need to know?—”
Bastian turned my face toward his and kissed me. One hand slid behind my neck and held me still while he kissed the words off my lips, blanking out my mind and bringing my entire being to stillness.
His thumb stroked along my jaw as he pulled back. “Listen. We’ll tell you.”
The roughness of his voice didn’t have a right to feel so gentle. Steady. “Okay.”
“Was this all right?” He stroked my jaw again.
“Yeah.”
A tiny smile. “Good.”
Brooks dragged his hands up my legs. I felt the heat of his hands through my jeans. “You’ve already seen this up close, but the four of us are kinky as fuck.”
“Could have fooled me.”
He flicked my knee gently. “Brat. Like I was saying, we’re kinky as fuck, and that’s important to us. We want you, and we all want to be on the same page before anything more happens.”
“This is what I went to get,” Theo said, holding out a stack of papers. “If it’s something you’re willing to consider, we’ll have you go through this list and mark everything you’re interested in and everything you’re not.”
He set the papers in my lap, and I smiled up again. “I’ve seen one of these before. My friend Isolde had to do one… That’s a longer story, but I’ve seen one. Not as comprehensive, though.”
The list was several pages long and had different checkmarks for levels of interest from ‘absolutely yes’ down to ‘absolutely never.’ At first glance, most of the things I’d heard of, but there were some I hadn’t.
“I’m glad,” Logan said, leaning in to kiss my shoulder. “It will be less overwhelming.”
“But what does it mean on your end? What are your interests?”
