Maddox
This is turning out better than I hoped it would. I expected Ivy to turn down my offer, so when she accepted it along with my brothers on a conditional basis, I was pleased. Maverick and I have shared girls in the past, but nothing long-term, so this is bound to get interesting, especially if my brother genuinely likes her.I knocked on my father’s door and waited until he gave me permission to enter.“What do you need now, Maddox?”“I have a slightly odd request. Maverick and I would like Ivy to be pulled from the staff. She isn’t to serve the family anymore.”“Why is that?”“We are taking her as our own and we expect her to have the privileges of not serving the family while she is under our care.”“Is that all?”“Yes. Consider it done, but if she interferes with your duties, she will be dealt with.”“Understandable.”My father and I have always seen eye to eye. I understand him, and he knows I will be the one to carry on his legacy, unlike Maverick. It’s a known fact that Maverick seeks to change the way we run society. He is sympathetic to the female gender and I’ll make sure he doesn’t have the chance to change the way we live.When I got back to our suite, Ivy and Maverick were sitting on the couch. She had her hands in her lap staring at the floor, which is the first thing I’m going to break. When we are alone, I want her to look at me.“Follow me.”“She can stay out here,” Maverick stated.“She spends time with me. That was the deal.”“Don’t do anything stupid, Maddox.”“We are going to get her back cleaned up, and she’s going to get ready to go to bed.”“How is that spending time with you?”“She’ll be near me, won’t she?”I watched my brother roll his eyes before leaving us and slamming his bedroom door shut. The sound was satisfying because it showed that I was pissing him off.“I’m not big on rules, but you are to always look at me when we are alone. I don’t want you looking at the floor or other things. I expect eye contact from you. Do you understand that?”“Yes.” She brought her head up to look at me, and my whole body itched to touch her. Her blue eyes fixated on me, making it hard for me to control myself.“I will also never do anything you don’t want me to. If I touch you in any way you don’t like, I expect you to tell me. I’m not a fucking mind reader and it’s important that you tell me these things. If you cannot do these two things, it will result in punishment. Do you understand?”“I do.”“Good. Let’s get your back cleaned up.”***IvyI followed Maddox to his bathroom, where he got the first aid kit out from under the sink.“Tomorrow, I’m having the doctor look in on you. I want him to look at your back and your hand. I also want you to talk to him about contraceptives if you’re not already taking them.”I whipped my head around to look at Maddox.“You’re getting a little ahead of yourself.”“Relax. It’s just in case. This way you’ll already be on them if we slept together. Children are a no for me. They come with too many responsibilities and I’m not willing to deal with them. I’m telling you up front that if you become pregnant, you will be on your own.”“Are you trying to be a jerk on purpose?”“I’m only telling the truth. I wouldn’t want you to have false ideas about what a family would be like with me.”“Take off your shirt and turn around.”I did as Maddox asked, and he carefully cleaned my back. His touches were light and I could tell he was trying not to hurt me.Once he was done with my back, he ran a bath and told me to soak in it.“When was the last time you had a bath?”“I shower every day.” Except for today, I was in too much pain this morning, but I will not tell him that.“I mean, when was the last time you could relax in a bath?”“It’s been over a year.”“This is the life you could have if you stay with me and all you have to do is warm my bed.”“You say I have a choice, but what you’re doing is coercion. You’re trying to get me to say by bribing me with nice things.”Maddox didn’t immediately respond, but he was staring at my body. I could see his eye roaming every inch of me.“You could look at it that way, or you could see it as a business deal. You get something nice in return, too.”“Until you get bored with me. You’ll have your fill and send me back to being a house servant and probably to some other family.”“That could happen, but we could work something out. I could have you reassigned to another job. I could even allow you to go back to school to be a nurse if you wanted.”“Would I have to wait until you were done with me?”“If getting you into school makes you agree to my deal, I’ll allow you to study while you’re with me.”“That’s a big promise. How can you make sure your dad would do that for you?”“My father and I have an understanding. You don’t need to be concerned about the details. Let’s get you out before you turn into a prune.”He held out a towel and waited for me to step into it before he wrapped it around my body.“Why are you being nice? Your brother said you believe females are the weaker sex.”“They are, but I also believe in treating them the way they deserve, and right now you’re not acting out or getting into trouble so I have no excuse to lash out at you, but if you step out of line, I won’t hesitate. I’m not like Maverick. If I were whipping you last night, I would have done more damage.”Maddox walked me to his bed and pulled one of his shirts over my head.“Can I have my pajamas, please?”“You’ll be fine in one of mine for a night.”“What about my underwear?”He tossed me a pair of cloth boxers. “You can wear those for now.”“Thank you.”“You’re welcome. We will share a bed, so pick aside and climb in. I’ll join you in a few minutes.”I watched as he retreated into his bathroom. I looked around his room and I tried waiting for him, but the bed was too comfortable and I couldn’t help but let the sleepiness claim me. It’s been a long time since I’ve been in a bed this warm and comfortable.Ivy“Why are you all the way over there?” Maddox asked.I was lying as far away from him as I could, facing away from him. I didn’t know how to read him and I didn’t want to be in his space. Some people don’t enjoy sleeping right next to other people.“I don’t want to crowd your space.”“If I didn’t want you to crowd my space, I wouldn’t have you in my bed. Now, come here.”I turned around and made my way to him. I wanted nothing touching my back, so I had to face him.“Closer. Place your head on my pillow so my arm is under your neck.”Maddox apparently didn’t want any space between us, and my face was now next to his chest. I did not know how I was going to get comfortable. Even though I wasn’t sure if I could sleep like this, I did like the way he smelled. His soap, or cologne, smelled like fresh air and I missed being outside. I don’t get to go out very often. Dinner with Maverick in the gardens was the first time I was outside in over a week.As I lay down, Maddox shifted his bod
MaverickI could hear Ivy’s moans and my brother’s grunts through his door as I stood in the kitchen drinking my water last night. I tortured myself by standing there listening to them. I knew he wouldn’t wait. This was his plan the entire time, and Ivy played right into it. I kept replaying the sounds as I lay in bed last night, wishing it was me she was with. Today I’ll prove to her she is better off with me.I walked into the living area to find Ivy sitting on the couch in her work uniform.“Why are you dressed in that? I thought we agreed you wouldn’t be working for us.”“I don’t have any clothes. Work clothes and sleepwear are the only sets of clothing we may own.”I forgot about that.“I guess we’ll go shopping for clothes today.”“I have a doctor’s appointment in a few minutes. Maddox is having the doctor look at my back.”Of course, he is. He’s trying to butter her up.“After your appointment, we can do some shopping and grab some lunch.”“You mean I get to go into the city wi
IvyMaverick was true to his word. We made a stop and got me a bagel and juice. It’s been a while since I had apple juice. I almost forgot how it tasted. It was crisper than I remembered it and I wanted another glass of it as soon as I drank it.“Is apple juice your favorite?”“I don’t have a favorite; it’s been a while since I had apple juice.”“I’ll include it with your breakfast in the morning. I’ll take your garbage when you’re done. We’re here and we can’t have people waiting for us.”I gave him my garbage and took his hand when he held it out for me. He helped me out of the car and walked me across the street to a nice small boutique.“Remember, you can get anything you want and need. I already told the owner that you are looking for pants and that you may need underclothes.”“Thank you.”I couldn’t believe he was taking the time to make sure I had the clothes that I only needed, but wanted. I couldn’t wait to wear jeans again. I’ve missed them. I can’t wait to wear colors and p
Maddox“What the fuck is going on?”“Your brother thought it was wise to let the girls see a doctor. He said we haven’t been treating them well” Dad’s voice was laced with anger.I looked at Maverick.“Is it true? You’re doing all this for the help?”“Yes. Ivy said they weren’t being fed regularly and that some of them haven’t seen a doctor in years. They need to be looked at. We can’t expect them to do the work we want them to do if they’re not healthy. We don’t’ even provide them with enough food. Most of them are underweight, Maddox.”“This is ridiculous. This is wasting everyone’s time.”“It’s not wasting your time. You and dad can still get work done.”“Maddox, meet me in my office.”My father didn’t wait for me to answer. He walked off, and I followed.“You can’t have their girl running you guys all over the place. You need to make sure she keeps her opinions to herself. We can’t allow her to use you and your brother to gain privileges for everyone.”“I’ll talk to her and I’ll m
IvyThose bastards have kept me in this suit for three days with nothing to do. They have someone bringing me food and someone to tend to my wounds, but they refuse to talk to me when they are here.“Have you learned your lesson?” Maddox asked as he opened the door.“Yes.”“Good. You’ll be free to leave the room starting tomorrow. Maverick and I will be back tonight. Don’t mess this up, Ivy.”“I won’t. Can I please have a book or some kind of puzzle?”Maddox walked over to me and gave me the book I was ready back.“If you want more books, you can start spending time in the library on the second floor starting tomorrow. Tell one of us where you’re going and when you expect to be done.”Maddox turned around and was heading back towards the door.“Where are you going?”“I have work to finish. I’ll be back later.”“I want someone to talk to.”“It can’t be me. I have shit to do. You can talk to Maverick when he comes up in a while.”I thought working all day and not being able to see anyon
IvyThe warmth of Maverick’s body calmed me. It felt nice to be held. It didn’t matter if it was by a person who I wasn’t sure of. I at least felt wanted, which is something that I haven’t felt since coming here.I rolled over to face him.“I’m sorry for getting you in trouble.”“Don’t worry about it. I’m a big boy.”“I thought maybe we should be political about the changes we want to make.”“What are you talking about?”“You don’t want to carry on your father’s legacy and I don’t want to live this way anymore, so we should make it political. Your father through a coup, why can’t we?”I could see Maverick’s eyes search my face for any signs that I was joking. I was serious. Why couldn’t we overthrow his father?“We could get people on our side. People would listen to you.”“My father will kill you.”“I’ve thought about that, and I’m willing to die for something I believe in.”“What about Maddox? He won’t agree to this.”“Your brother wants power. If we agree to give him power, he’ll g
MaverickWhen I woke up this morning, Ivy was still lying next to me. Her body was still naked from last night, and I couldn’t help but smile. It wasn’t planned, but I’m happy it happened.“We need to talk.” Maddox angrily stated as he barged into the room.“Can’t this wait?”“No.”His jaw was clenched as he was looking at Ivy laying next to me.“Fine. Let me put some clothes on and I’ll meet you in the living room.”“What is he angry about?” Ivy asked.“It could be anything, but it’s probably about what you and I did last night.”I kissed Ivy on the head before walking into the living room to talk to Maddox.“Why did you do it?”“Do what?”“Fuck her. Why did you fuck Ivy?”“Because we wanted it, it wasn’t planned, and I didn’t do it to get back at you. It just happened.”“She was supposed to be mine first.”“Ivy is a person; she isn’t a toy. She sleeps with who she wants and when she wants to.”“You’re stealing her from me.”“No, I’m not. She hasn’t decided. Why are you upset?”“You
IvyI agreed to this game because I need to have a little control and if this is how I get it, then I’m willing to play.Maddox had cuffed my hands behind my back and my torso was on the bed with my legs over the edge. I couldn’t see what he was doing, but I could hear his movements. Maddox walked up behind me and placed a hand on my ass.“Your body is beautiful, Ivy. Your pale, smooth skin is something I cherish. It’s easy to leave behind evidence of our time together.” He then smacked my ass, causing it to sting and causing me to grunt out from the force. What confused me the most was how my body reacted to it. I felt the moisture pool between my legs after the smack and the next one made me moan out in pleasure.“It looks like my girl likes a bit of pain. Is that why you took the whipping so well? Do you like the pain?”“Yes.” I moaned out.Maddox slipped his hand between my legs and started rubbing my pussy, hitting my clit every time he slid his fingers up. It wasn’t long before
