After exposing me to the cold air and looking at my wounds, he covered me back up and looked more comfortable.

“You look exhausted.” I said and touched the side of his face without really thinking about it.

“To be fair, I am,” he said, and ran his fingers through his hair. “But I’ll be more than ok.”

“You should go rest. I’ll have someone bring you to my place. I would ask Kylian if you could stay with him, but I don’t want him to feel put out.” I stated and looked him over again.

“I was offered a place to stay, and I offered to take the first watch of you,” Dion said, and I wanted to pull him to the bed with me and let him rest. My hands were itching to pull him closer.

“Come up and lie beside me, then. You need sleep and I don’t need all this space.”

“No, that isn’t smart.” He said, refusing.

I let out a sigh, and despite the pain, I moved to get out of the bed again. “Well, if you won’t get in the bed with me, then I’m getting out of it, and I’m going home. At least there you can get the rest you clearly need.”

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re a pain in the ass?” He groaned and narrowed his eyes at me before dropping the bed rail on the right side. He was stupidly careful about getting into the bed beside me. I just wanted to yank him down, but I had an odd feeling he wouldn’t like that in the slightest.

He smelled like my body wash, and I let out a soft chuckle. Was this stupidity? What was this? I had never felt so thrilled to have the scent of my body wash on someone. What the hell made it so different this time?

Closing my eyes, I inhaled the scent again. God, what was this feeling? Joy? No. Excitement? Possible. Did I feel this with Kylian…? The answer to that was complicated. I felt something, but not like this. I would rather be the one wearing his scent. Mentally giving my head a shake, I watched Dion while his eyes were closed, and he seemed to have settled to sleep quickly.

I ran my fingers through his damp hair and hummed. My leg was killing me, but it didn’t stop the want to fuck this man tucked beside me, sound asleep. I felt terrible for just thinking about it while he was out cold. Chewing on my lip, I kept my focus on soothing him while he slept.

Kylian joined me in watching the doctor sleep an hour and a bit later.

“Nikki, it’s not smart to have him in bed with you,” he said, his voice soft.

“I know. He said the same thing. He was so tired, though. I would put up with a little pain. After all, he saved my life.” I whispered.

“Alessio, and most likely your brother, will flip out if they see this.”

“Then, protect me.” I said and looked down at Dion. “Protect him, at the very least.”

Kylian sighed, “I’ll take him to my place to rest, but I’m not doing this for him. I’m interested in you, not him. You got him involved. You better hope this isn’t just a whim.” Dion didn’t even move when Kylian picked him up and took him away. I could hear him grumbling under his breath, but I only caught his words about the doctor being too trusting.

Alone now in the bed, and the medical wing, I let out a sigh. Moving the blankets and looking at my thigh, I wasn’t even sure how this was going to be explained to my mother. There’s no way she would let this go.

Pulling the blankets back up over my legs, I relaxed back into the bed and closed my eyes. I hoped Alexi and Creed would take care of Meadow, and this wouldn’t hold it against me further down the line. I just wanted things to go back to the way they were when we didn’t argue and worked as a large family unit.

“Ilya, I told you he would be sleeping. He’s had a stressful day.” I heard Vito say, and the light on my eyelids told me they had opened the curtain to check.

“Let me just leave this with him, ok?”

“Fine, but don’t wake him, Ilya.” Vito whispered, and I heard Ilya come over and he covered me with what I assumed was another blanket. But from the smell and feel of the blanket, this was mine from my bed.

“You gave us all a fright, Nikki.” I heard Ilya mutter, and he left the room after checking the blanket was covering me completely again. Wrapping my hands in my blanket, I pulled it closer to me after I was sure he was gone. The scent made me miss my bed and my own pillows, but the blanket helped. Only Ilya would think about things like that.

Having passed out from the pain medication, most likely, I wasn’t sure how long I slept, but I knew I wasn’t happy to be awake when the sound of arguing reached my ears.

“You had no right to take me from his bedside. I was to watch him.”

“He wanted me to!” Kylian snapped. He sounded right pissed off now.

“I don’t care. Someone needed to be watching him. Do you not seem to understand this!” Dion huffed, and I could tell he wasn’t thrilled either.

“Has anyone ever told you that you’re easier to deal with when your mouth is shut or you’re on your back?” Kylian hissed out, and the air around seemed to be charged with anger. But Dion didn’t give him a reply, instead he opened the curtain, our eyes meeting and I could see the anger displayed on his features.

“I---”

Dion cut me off.

“Do you have any idea what kind of shape you are in? I was supposed to be watching you and yet you let that lumbering asshole carry me off to his bed to let me sleep,” he said, raising his voice at me.

“I wanted him to take you to rest.”

“That isn’t your choice,” he said, and Kylian smirked at me from behind Dion. That was dangerous. He stepped forward and pushed Dion over the foot of the bed. Instead of letting Dion up, he pressed his hips against Dions backside and placed his right palm on the back of his neck, holding him down.

“Kylian…” I said, keeping my eyes on Dion. Dion didn’t look pleased, but he also didn’t look like he was uncomfortable with Kylian being pressed against him. Scooting down on the bed, I let my fingers ensnare in Dion’s messy hair as soon as I could reach. God, he looked sexy like this.

“You need to keep your leg relaxed.” Dion said.

“I’ll get to that at some point.” I muttered and slipped my free index and middle finger into his warm, wet mouth. “God, I’m fucking hard.” I groaned, massaging his tongue with my fingers. “Tell us to stop, and we will.” I said, licking my lips to wet the skin there.

“Your leg needs time to heal.” Dion said around my fingers the best he could, and Kylian pushed his hips against the Doctor more.

“I’m not using my leg, don’t worry.” I assured him, and the doctor groaned as Kylian slipped his hand around the Dion’s waist and the sound fabric being moved told me Kylian was more interested in touching the doctor than he had let on.

“If you don’t want us to touch you, tell us to stop.” Kylian said, and I watched Dion shiver before the sound of Kylian jacking off Dion filled the air. “Move your leg slightly, Nikki.”

That was all the warning I got before Dion was pulled away from me, and he was tossed on his back in my lap. Before Dion could sit up, I wrapped my arm around his throat.

“Wait.” He said, and Kylian paused, “Please, slow down.”

Kylian took his time removing Dions borrowed pants, and boxers. Dion was looking up at me, and I could tell he was into this too, but I was sure he was struggling with how wrong this was to do here.

“You do not know how delightful you look like this,” I said, brushing my thumb against his bottom lip. Looking down Dion’s body, pre-cum was dotted on the tip of his cock. I watched Kylian reach out and smear it around the tip of Dion’s cock. He suddenly switched the hands he was touching Dion with and leaned over top of Dion, slipping the cum covered thumb between my lips.

“I’d hate for you not to be able to taste him, Nikki.”

Dion’s cheeks were flushed, and he had his lips parted. Kylian stood back up straight and used both his hands to tease Dion. One hand held his cock, while the palm of the other was rubbed around the top of his cock. Cute little moans fell from Dion’s mouth as he tried to remain as still as he could in my lap.

Dion reached for one of Kylian’s hands and pulled it off his cock, slipping the fingers into his mouth and covering them in spit completely. “More, I want more.”

“I can do whatever you want, but I’m afraid I won’t understand unless you tell me exactly what you want,” Kylian said.

“Fingers... finger me, at the least.” Dion groaned and Kylian suddenly covered Dion’s mouth, and for a good reason. Someone else was in the medical centre now.

“You best stay quiet, unless you want whoever that is to see you like this. What a pleasant introduction this would make for them.” Kylian said and pushed his middle finger inside of Dion slowly.
