She’s laughing.

“That’syour sensitive speech and approach?!” she cackles.

I give her a disgruntled glare, as I wait for her to gain her composure, which only makes her laugh harder.

I throw my hands up in the air and try employing some guilt.

“I would give you anything, and this is how you treat-”

“I wanted the Elements!” she interrupts.

“Well,” I sputter, “You can’t have them. They’re Minors and fated to the asteroids byyourdoing.”

Her smile turns upside-down.

“But I wanted a foursome!”

She wanted afoursome?

By dammit, then I’ll make sure she gets a fucking foursome.

Grabbing her by the hand, I drag her back to the others.

“Fuck off,” I say without ceremony to the Elements and Edgar. “Please,” I tack on for the lady Minors.

They beat a hasty retreat.

“What’s going on?” Neptune asks.

“Venus wants a foursome.”

The twins’ faces light up with lascivious grins and Saturn’s eyes burn with lust.

We’re about to make sure she never thinks of those little shit-stains again.

CHAPTER 15

URANUS

Sharing your every emotion, thought, and feeling with another can be overwhelming.

This is one of those times.

Neptune’s excitement fuels my own, and vice versa, until we’re so frenzied with lust that our legs shake.

“Fuck, bratik, if we don’t calm down, we’ll embarrass ourselves,”he warns.

“Wouldn’t be the first time you’ve embarrassed me,”I rejoin.

“She looks torn,”he comments, looking at Zahra.

We both reach out to Mars to see if we can hear her.

He’s taken to leaving himself open mentally so we can listen in.

I realize that she’s much like us; so overcome with need, but also unsure.

She’s never done this before.
