she meant and had no desire to ask.
Jasper raised one eyebrow, and for all that his body throbbed with a myriad of sensations, most unpleasant, Nat had to smother a grin. Neither of them had considered Rose Sophia to be an easy conquest, indeed they both relished the chase, but even now, when he would have thought she felt at a disadvantage she was pushing and he would wager, not cowed an inch.
Good. I look forward to our couplings; they will be everything but dull and predictable. He glanced at his arm. That was an example of her feistiness.
“You have a point,” Jasper said. His tone was grudging, and once more Nat concealed his mirth. Jasper was a natural leader, and struggled when others drew attention to something he should have thought of.
With gritted teeth, Nat succumbed to Jasper’s ministrations as he began to ease his form-fitting jacket off. The resultant pain was like a red-hot poker applied to his arm as his injury was jarred, and it brought sweat to his skin. He swallowed hard.
A flesh wound, nothing more than that. It will be over soon, do not faint, do not empty your stomach. Think of those who are shot on the battlefield, think...
“Oh, for goodness sake,” Sophia burst out. “Untie my hands and let me do it. Jasper, you are not usually this clumsy surely? You who I have been told can make a body sing with pleasure?”
A red flush ran over Jasper’s face. Nat waited for his twin’s response. Neither of them said a word.
Eventually, Jasper nodded.
“I thank you for the compliment, my dear, and look forward to seeing your body sing. I would be grateful for your help, and I will hold you to your promise that you will do nothing untoward.”
“Yet,” Sophia added. “Nothing untoward yet; not until I have helped you, that was my promise.” Jasper grunted as he busied himself with the ties around her hands. Sophia flexed her fingers as her wrists were loosened, and moved her feet.
“Oh no, my love, you do not need to move far, and I will help you. There is no need to untie your legs.”
“There is when I fuck her,” Nathaniel said, his voice pain-filled. “How else do I fill her properly if I can’t get between her thighs?”
“You mean you are so limited in ideas? I am disappointed; I thought from your introduction to me, such a minor detail as my legs bound would be but a superficial irritant,” Sophia mocked him.
He frowned. They would have to remind her to think before she spoke. Don’t be a prosy stupe, she speaks her mind and I admire her for it. This grumpy mood is not me.
“And if she fucks you, Nat, think how tight and delicious it will be to have your cock drawn into that restricted space. Don’t worry, once you are able, you will enjoy all the fruits of our labors,” Jasper said. “On my oath, I will not enjoy our lady, or she me until we are able to be three.”

“If I am here,” Sophia could not help but add that. She may have no intention of trying to escape, the pictures that had painted for her were much too enticing, but neither was she going to let them think she was compliant. She would push and prod as far as possible, and enjoy all they meted out.
“But of course,” Jasper said urbanely. “But I tell you now, Rose our love, you will be here.”
“Why Rose? I dislike that name.” She was curious. They had once before intimated they would use her hated first name, and try as she might she could see no reason for it.
“It is you, love. You are our Rose. Think about it.” Jasper advised. “Now can you aid me with this garment so we can tend to this wound?”
She nodded. She would think about their insistence to use Rose as a name when she had time. “Move away and let me...no, on second thought use one hand to steady him, and keep the other available to grab me if I fall. I have no balance.” That was a lie. Playing circuses as a wild child, standing on the back of a horse as it cantered around a field, had given her an incredible sense
