Holly's Awakening (5 page)

Instead of going upstairs,
Kade
led her through to the sitting room. There was a long sofa with three
individual chairs surrounding a small wood coffee table. Steven removed the
coffee table, and
Kade
stood her where it had been.
On the wall was a large plasma television. The room felt homey and comforting.
In the small trailer there was only room for a few deck chairs. She hated
living in a trailer with her family.

In time she hoped to get something better. With her
father always taking her money her dreams seemed to be shattering around her.

For so long she’d held all the emotions at bay. She
never cried anymore or yelled at anyone. Day after day she went through the
motions not doing anything to stop what was happening. In the few short moments
she’d been with Steven and
Kade
she felt like opening
up and screaming.

She didn’t. Holly kept her words to herself as
Kade
circled her. Steven took a seat on the left chair. His
legs were splayed open watching her.

“When was the last time you felt anything?”
Kade
asked.

Jerking her eyes up to the man dominating her space
she saw him looking deep into her eyes. No, he wasn’t looking deep into her
eyes. He was searching far deeper than anyone had ever dared.

Breaking eye contact she looked at the floor.

“You can hide all you want. For the last year I’ve
watched you. You never show anything of yourself.” He moved behind her wrapping
his arms around her and turned her in the direction of Steven. “You wear ugly
fucking sweaters to hide from everyone. Your hair is always pulled into a pony
tail.” As he spoke
Kade
wrapped her hair around his
fist pulling on the strands. She gasped, and tears sprang to her eyes. “When
did you stop feeling?”

“How do you know this?” she asked, shocked by how
assertive he was. Even her brother didn’t know the true pain she felt. When her
father hit her she didn’t feel anything. The pain no longer registered inside
her. His words and the way her life were going no longer felt worth it.

“Because I know what you’re doing. You’re blanking
everything out. You’re shutting yourself down to numb your body.” A hand moved
down to cup her breast then down to palm her pussy. “Apart from this afternoon and
the other day when I removed your sweater, you haven’t felt anything. I saw the
shock in your eyes and the yearning when it went away. I’ve watched you a long
time.”

“That’s not fair.”

“Is it?” Steven asked. “You’re going through life
doing nothing because it hurts too damn much. When you’re with us I see the
yearning as well. We’re going to open you up, baby. You’ll flower between us.”

“The only question, Holly, is do you trust us enough
to give yourself to us?”
Kade
asked. He nibbled her
ear teasing her.

The fire started instantly inside her. Closing her
eyes, she sank against his warmth and wished she could open up like other
women.

Steven watched the battle and wished he could do
something to help her.
Kade
knew a lot more than he
did, and he’d been working close by her side. He’d known
Kade
was seeing more than he let on. His comments about her sweaters and shy
attitude had hit Steven hard. The need to protect her was always there for him.

Kade
could give Holly what he couldn’t, a dominating but guiding hand in helping
her. Holly needed to be awakened. She spent too much time hiding from her
feelings and emotions that she’d cut herself off.

Her gaze cut across to him.

“Trust us, Holly. We’d never treat you badly. I
promise.” And when Steven gave a promise he kept it.

“I don’t know if I can do this,” she said, closing
her eyes.

“Open your eyes,”
Kade
ordered. When she didn’t, he walked around and gripped her chin forcing her to
open.

Tears shone deep in her depths. He saw
Kade
tense and knew his friend was fighting the instinct to
fold her in his arms. Steven knew his friend better than anyone.

“You can’t run from this. I won’t let you. You’re
ours, baby. Nothing you do or say is ever going to change that.”

“I want to trust you.”

Kade
cupped her cheeks. His touch went gentle. Steven saw it and wished he was the
man to give her what she needed.

“Look at Steven.” Her gaze returned to his. “I
promise you he’ll never let anything happen to you.”
Kade
fingered the bruise around her eye. “If I thought it would help I’d kill your
bastard father for doing this to you. He’s not worth going to prison over.” He
kissed her lips. “Trust me.”

After some time she nodded her head. “Yes, I trust
you. I don’t want to be like this anymore. Please, help me.”

Steven’s heart went out to her.

“I can help you.”

The tears shining in her eyes didn’t fall. Not one
drop at all. Steven wished he could see her cry to show some kind of emotion.
Her face scrunched up, but that was all.

Kade
enfolded her in his arms. Her fingers dug into his back, folding tight. She
didn’t have any nails. Steven had watched her more than once chewing on her
fingers. Their woman was in desperate need of being fixed.

“Before anything else happens I think we should feed
you,”
Kade
said. He looked over at Steven, and he
took over, grabbing her hand and leading her through to the kitchen.

Cooking was his priority.
Kade
couldn’t cook a piece of toast without burning it. He sat her down and checked
the oven to see the casserole had not spilt over.

Getting up at six in the morning had its benefits.
When it was early in the morning it wasn’t too hot to put a casserole in the
oven. He loved a decent cooked meal, and eating salads was never going to cut
it.

Kade
walked in as he was serving the lamb casserole into bowls. “I’ve put her bag in
our room. She’s not staying anywhere but between us.”

“Fair enough.” Steven placed three bowls on the
table and then brought the bread along with the dish containing the casserole
in front of them. “I hope you like lamb.”

“I’ve never tried it,” Holly said, taking the spoon
from him.

“You’ve never eaten lamb?”
Kade
asked, pausing in his eating.

Heat filled her cheeks, and Steven tightened his
grip on the spoon.

“Lamb’s expensive.”

And her father was too busy using the money on
alcohol. Glancing at his lover Steven saw
Kade
had
the same reaction as he did. Putting a hand on his arm, he forced the other man
to calm down. There was nothing either of them could do to help her at the
moment. They were working on it, and their lawyer felt they were close to a
solution.

“Enjoy it. I’m a pretty decent cook if I do say so
myself.” Steven took a bite and moaned, perfectly cooked with the right
seasoning and root vegetables.

He heard Holly moan and take another bite. In no
time at all they were reaching for second helpings.

It was nice to watch a woman enjoying her meal. Once
they finished their second helping with extra bread, Holly declined a third
bowl while he and
Kade
took another helping.

Holly sat making patterns on the table with her
fingers.

“Do you cook at home?” Steven asked.

“Yeah, when I can I cook as much as I can. I don’t
know if I’m good, but it’s better than going without.”

Steven imagined her brothers and sisters appreciated
anything that was given to them. Shaking his head, he continued eating.

Once he was done, all three of them washed the
dishes, and then they made their way back into the siting room.
Kade
still hadn’t showered, and the scent of the day clung
to his skin. Steven got hard remembering the feel of
Kade’s
hard cock sliding into his mouth. He loved going down on
Kade
.
His lover had a big cock and knew how to use it. If he wasn’t with
Kade
in the bedroom, Steven would be jealous of the size of
his member. His cock was a thing of beauty.

Taking his seat once again, he watched as
Kade
stood her in the centre of the room. Her hands were
locked in front of her. Her hands were twisting and turning. He saw the nerves
gathering within her, and he wanted to wipe them from her.

Kade
stood in front of him. “Don’t say a word. Don’t interfere.”

Steven read his lips.
Kade
was about to go all Dom on her.

Nodding his head, Steven settled back, adjusted his
cock, and watched
Kade
circle her.

He noticed her nipples responding, hardening as
Kade
circled close. Every so often his hands skimmed down
her sides or touched her, and her nipples hardened more. There was hope for
Holly yet.

Chapter
Four

Kade
turned back to the woman waiting for him. Holly was fidgeting with her hands
and staring down at the floor. Taking hold of her hands, he placed them on his
chest, stopping her from moving. He covered her hands with his.

She glanced up at him, nibbling her lip. He reached
out and pulled her lip from between her teeth.

“No more,” he said. “You don’t need to be nervous.”

They stood in the centre of the sitting room with
her hands on his chest for the longest time.

“That’s it. Feel me. Nothing bad is going to happen.
I promise you everything is fine.”

Holly didn’t speak. She nodded her head. Glancing
behind him he saw Steven resting his head in his hand.

“I want to feel again,” she said. “It has been so
long since I’ve felt.”

Moving his hands away from hers he placed his on her
hips. Her gaze met his as he caressed her hips and the flesh of her stomach.
The shirt she wore covered her skin, but he didn’t need direct contact to get
her attention.

“Who holds you?” he asked.

“You do.”

“And who am I?”

“
Kade
Edwards, my boss’s
lover.”

He leaned in close to her ear. “I’m going to be your
lover as well, Holly. I’m going to know every inch of your body.” Brushing a
kiss to her neck, he pulled away. Her hands were sweaty where they rested on
his chest. He didn’t pull away. “And soon I’m going to know every caress and
stroke that brings you to orgasm. Lift your arms up.”

Holly complied with his demand, lifting her arms in
the air.

Kade
tugged the shirt over her hair. She wore a horrid grey bra. The offending item
looked too tight and years too old for her to wear.

“A trip to Callie is in order,”
Kade
said, talking to Steven.

Her arms remained up above as he stared at him.
Walking behind her, he fingered the clasp hiding her luscious tits from his
view.

“Look at him, Holly. He wants you. His jeans are
tenting around his cock. You turn him on. How does that make you feel?”
Kade
asked.

“Happy. He makes me feel happy.”

“Good. Let’s see what else he likes.”
Kade
flicked the clasp open. He removed the tight bra from
her body. The bra had left red marks on her shoulder and around her back. He
stroked the marks hoping to ease some of the pain.

“What do you think, Steven?”
Kade
reached round and cupped her large tits in his palm. Looking over her shoulder
he saw her nipples were indeed large. They were red and tipped with hard buds.

“She’s perfect. I knew she would be.”

Letting go of her breasts, he caressed down to the
button of her jeans.

“Do you want this?”
Kade
asked, kissing her neck.

“Yes. I do.”

He wondered if this was the first time she was
giving into something she wanted. Watching her from afar was never going to be
good enough for him. Steven had cornered him the other day with his questions.
The truth was he couldn’t look away from her. Holly captured his attention like
no other woman. Even before he’d dated Steven women were an easy way to release
steam. With Holly, he wanted more.
Kade
wanted
exactly what Steven wanted, a family.

Flicking the button open
Kade
eased the zipper down. Going to her waist, he pulled the jeans down her thighs
until they fell around her ankles.

“Step out of them,” he said. He took hold of her
hand and helped her out of the jeans. He kicked the jeans away. She stood in a
pair of grey panties. Her arms folded over her breasts, and she shook her head.

“I can’t do this.” She tried to cover her panties.
“I look awful.”
