L yric's breath is warm on my skin as she comes down from the high of her climax. This was just a taste of what we're going to do to her tonight, merely a preview.

My hands soothe circles into her back and she blinks, looking over at me with fondness in her eyes, glowing even in the dim light. Archer moves up the bed to lie next to her legs, pressing wet kisses into the skin of her thighs as Levi and I caress her on either side.

She's given me the greatest gift I could ever ask for—a second chance to have my own family. I vow right here and now that I'm going to do everything I can not to screw up this time. I'm done being an asshole. I'm done fucking up the chance that my parents gave me.

"You look beautiful," I whisper, kissing her cheek. "I want to ravish you." My fingers trail down her torso, and I begin to tease little patterns into her skin.

"Please," she whispers, eyes shining up at me. I can't hold back any longer, so I pull her sweater up over her head and run a finger along the swell of her breasts, spilling out over the top of her bra. I wish I could go back in time and see her when she was pregnant with our son. I bet her tits were enormous.

My cock is throbbing now, so hard it's nearly painful. I want to bury myself in Lyric's heat, but I'm content to savor the slow, soft touches we're sharing right now. Lyric reaches out and runs her fingers over my chest, toying with the buttons on my shirt. I capture one hand and bring it to my lips to kiss her knuckles. She moves closer to me, her body pressing into mine.

"You're overdressed," she murmurs. "I want to touch you. Please?"

One simple word has me completely undone and I move to unbutton my shirt, shrugging out of it before shucking off my jeans, giving Lyric free access to me. Her hands move as soon as my clothes are out of the way. She's stroking over my chest and running her fingers through the planes of my pecs and abs.

Levi unclasps her bra from behind and moves his hands to massage her breasts, tweaking and playing with her nipples while Archer continues his ministrations on her legs.

We're moving as one now, bodies writhing together, the tension in the room thick and heavy. Lyric's hips rock into me as we touch each other all over, desire coursing through my veins like an unquenchable fire. I just want to get lost inside her, drown myself in her blue-green eyes and bury myself inside her warmth until we're fused together as one.

I realize as I'm stroking my fingers down her back that I'm dangerously close to falling back in love with Lyric. I can't let myself think about that right now, though. It's too soon. Too much has happened between us.

So instead, I let myself be content with feeling her next to me, drawing her into my lap and sighing as she sinks onto my cock. Her warm pussy envelops me so tightly that I have to hold back, not wanting this to be over yet. It's impossible to hold back with a girl like Lyric, but I calm myself down and start gently rocking my hips, thrusting in and out.

Archer and Levi are now on either side of her, kissing and caressing her body all over. As Lyric and I move in unison, her voice begins to grow, wet moans spilling from her lips.

We can't be too loud, so Archer moves to kiss her, swallowing her cries as I continue to rock inside her, moving faster now, desperation clawing at my skin. I need to feel her. I need to be one with her. I need Lyric like I need air.

The heat coils inside me, drawing tighter and tighter until it feels like I'm about to snap. My thrusts get deeper, the tight, wet heat like a balm to my aching cock. My entire body starts to tense up and my control snaps when Lyric's body seizes up, coming undone around me. Her hands tangle in my caramel locks and I bury myself to the hilt.

"Lyric!" I cry out, hands clenching her hips as I release inside her, warmth flooding my veins. I pull out, holding Lyric close to me for a few moments.

Levi pulls her away, the cool air hitting my already softening cock as he lays her on the bed and lines himself up. "Need you," he mumbles, a shy look in his eyes that I recognize. He's needy for her right now, just as I was. I stroke Lyric's cheek while he begins to tease her clit with his cock.

"Oh, God," Lyric whispers, biting her lip. "Feels so good. Please, Levi! I need more!"

He rubs himself harder, slipping down to tease her entrance for a moment before pushing inside. Archer is working a hand over himself as he watches, precum spilling over his fist as he strokes himself.

I kiss Lyric's neck, sucking marks into her soft skin as Levi wraps his arms around her and begins to thrust in and out, setting a slow pace. She's so warm, so soft. I can't get enough as I kiss her. I want to brand myself into her skin so everyone knows that I'm hers.

I want her to carry my marks like a badge of honor, show her off and proudly proclaim that this incredible woman is ours .

I feel like I'm floating and flying all at once as Lyric turns her head, capturing my lips with hers. We kiss breathlessly, pulling away to take in oxygen before finding each other once again to continue kissing.

Levi's hips start to pick up speed, desire rolling off him in waves. "I want you to feel so good," he murmurs, brushing her hair out of her eyes. She looks up at him, her mouth falling slightly open as she takes in another breath after more kissing.

"You're making me feel so good," she confesses. "All of you. I feel more connected to you right now than I have in a long, long time."

"Good," Archer says, his hand speeding up on his cock. "You deserve to feel as good as possible. We put you through so much and we want you to feel good, for once."

"You always make me feel good," Lyric whispers. "Seeing you look at me has my heart racing and my knees weak."

"Then let us take you to new heights of pleasure," I tell her, recapturing her attention with another searing kiss, my lips moving against hers. We break apart and I cup her cheek. "Let us fill you up, make you feel whole again."

Lyric moans out her approval as Levi's hips rut into hers over and over, his grip getting tighter. "How is this?" he asks.

"More," she begs. "Faster."

He complies immediately, picking up speed as he drives himself deeper into her. I pull her in again, tongue thrusting into the wet cavern of her mouth as I kiss her, sucking her bottom lip between my teeth and gently biting down.

Her scent is intoxicating, the sweet, subtle floral aroma filling my senses as we kiss. I feel her body move in time with Levi's, but it seems like she's getting close with the way her whines spill into my mouth.

A few more thrusts and Lyric is coming once again, body tensing up as she shudders through her release. I draw back and watch, entranced by the expression of bliss on her face. I can't get enough of the way she looks when she orgasms, all radiant and glowing like a goddess.

Levi follows behind shortly after, pressing a bruising kiss to her lips as he releases, the muffled sound of her name coming from behind the kiss. As Archer watches, his own orgasm hits, ripping his release from him with a guttural moan as he spills over Lyric's stomach.

We're a sweaty, blissed-out mess as we lie back, coming down from the high. The three of us crowd Lyric, cuddling close to her. This is easily the best I've ever felt and I'm almost angry at myself that it took so long to get here.

On the other hand, I know that the work we've done to come this far has been worth it. It might not have been easy to recognize how horrible we've been and to try to start to change, but seeing the way Eli and Lyric have begun to accept us into their lives more and more has made it feel less hard.

I know that we still have a long way to go. Lyric has only just now accepted us back into her life as partners and I don't want to do anything to mess that up. All we can do for now is to continue to work on ourselves and grow as men.

A part of me hopes that my parents can see how much I've been changing. I know they would be proud of me if they could see me. The thought is a comfort as I lean in and kiss Lyric, a soft smile on my face.

"You guys make me happy," she says, smiling back at me.

"You make us happy, Songbird," Archer tells her. "Always."

As we lie there, I think about how much we still have to deal with. We still need to ensure Cameron pays for what he did, we need to continue repairing our relationship with Lyric and we need to start stepping up more to take care of Eli. But I push it all aside for now.

Right now, all I want to do is focus on being close to the woman I'm starting to fall in love with and enjoying the time we have together. The other stuff can wait until tomorrow.
