While Aqua continued to enthusiastically play with his absâfingers tracing every ridge and valley with an adoring look in her eyesâCassius sat stiff and frozen on the low wooden stool.
He didnât know what to do.
He didnât know what to say.
His face was a perfect mask of confusion.
Brows furrowed, mouth slightly open, eyes wide like a deer caught in lantern light.
And just like on the outside, he was reeling internally as well.
After all, just moments ago he had told her that storyâthe one about the tiny barking dog and the childhood humiliation that had sparked years of secret trainingâbecause he genuinely wanted to make a good impression.
It wasnât even a lie; the original Cassius really had done exactly that.
He had trained, had pushed himself, had wanted more than anything to become someone who could stand in front of his big sister and protect her.
But the moment Aqua left for the capital, that same little boy had crumbled.
The motivation evaporated. Depression swallowed him whole. Training stopped.
The downward spiral began.
And Cassius, the current one, had only repeated the story to honor that past version of himself.
To give Aqua something warm and sweet to smile about.
He had expected her to blush, maybe giggle, maybe ruffle his hair and call him cute.
He would have been satisfied with that.
Insteadâ
Instead she had turned into something else entirely.
The funny, caring, slightly clumsy big sister who used to tease him and sneak him extra desserts had vanished.
In her place was a woman with heavy-lidded eyes and parted lips and a gaze so hungry it reminded him of the way his wives looked at him in bed.
The same devouring stare.
The same barely-contained craving.
Except this wasnât one of his wives.
This was Aqua.
His sister.
And he had no idea how the hell this had happened.
Normally he was the one making moves.
He was the one pulling women along, guiding them gently into his orbit.
He knew exactly how to read a mood, how to tease, how to escalate.
But now?
Now the roles were reversed.
Aqua was the aggressor.
Aqua was the one pressing soft, warm breasts against his back, dragging hardened nipples up and down his spine, whispering filthy-sweet things into his ear while her hands roamed shamelessly over his chest.
And the worst part?
He couldnât even enjoy it.
One part of himâthe primal, male part was screaming in pleasure.
Every brush of her fingers sent lightning down his spine. His cock throbbed painfully against the towel, harder with every teasing stroke.
His body wanted this. Badly.
But the other half of him felt like a victim.
Like an actual little brother being molested by an older sister who didnât know or didnât care that she was crossing every line in existence.
He felt frozen. Paralyzed.
The same instinctive freeze response that real victims described: wanting to scream stop but the words wouldnât come, wanting to shove her away but his arms stayed locked at his sides.
Not to mention, that he had been submissive before and he loved it, even.
When he let one of his wives ride him until he was begging, when he surrendered control because it felt good to let go.
But this wasnât that.
This was being forced into a role he never asked for.
And he hated it.
He hated how small and helpless it made him feel.
He hated that he couldnât even tell her to stop.
All he could do was sit there, while his sister molested him under the guise of âwashing.â
Aqua, meanwhile, was in a completely different headspace.
The rational, consequence-aware part of her brain had shut off entirely.
What was running the show now was pure primal instinct.
Sisterly love twisted together with raw, feminine desire until the two were indistinguishable.
She couldnât think about tomorrow.
She couldnât think about how wrong this was.
She could only feel.
Feel how warm his skin was under her palms.
Feel how hard his muscles jumped when she dragged her nails lightly down his sides.
Feel how his cock twitched and strained against the towel every time she shifted closer.
And godsâshe wanted to touch it.
She needed to touch it.
Her body was burning hotter by the second and her own pussy throbbed in time with her heartbeat.
She could feel fresh slick gathering between her thighs.
So slowly, she slid one soapy hand down his abdomen, stopping just above the towelâs knot.
She leaned in until her lips brushed his ear.
"Cassius..." She whispered, voice low and sultry. "Could you tell your big sister...what exactly is happening under this towel right now?"
Her fingers ghosted over the fabricâbarely touching, but enough to make his cock jump violently.
"I donât have much experience myself."
She continued, lips curving into a playful smile against his skin.
"But even I can tell your penis is getting quite hard. Really hard. Itâs practically lifting the towel like itâs some sort of flag waving hello."
She gave the towel a teasing tug, just enough to make the fabric slide an inch lower.
"Look at that." She purred. "Itâs pitching such a big tent. So...are you possibly getting turned on by your big sister washing you down? Hmm?"
"Is that whatâs going on down there?"
Cassiusâs breath hitched. His entire body trembled.
"N-Noâ" He managed, voice cracking. "This...This is from earlier. From when I was with Portia. didnât...finish. So the erection, itâs just...lingering."
"You donât need to worry about it, Aqua."
Aqua hummed thoughtfully, as her hand drifted lower, sliding along the crease where thigh met groin.
"How can you say that, Cassius?"
She pouted, lips brushing his earlobe.
"How can you disrespect your poor, aching cock like that and tell not to mind it? It most definitely needs attention."
"And I will admit you were already hard when I started." She murmured.
"After fucking Portiaâs ass so thoroughly, you were still this erect. Still strong. I could definitely see that since from the moment you tried to help me..."
"...but it wasnât as hard as it is now is it?"
Her fingers finally grazed the thick outline through the fabric.
"I mean, even now itâs getting even harder. Bigger. Hotter. I can feel it twitching under my hand...growing every time I touch you."
She licked his ear again like it was a treat.
"Youâre getting turned on by your big sister, arenât you?" She whispered. "You like this. You like it a lot."
Cassiusâs hands clenched into fists on his thighs.
"IâIâIâ"
"Shhh." She kissed the side of his neck. "Tell me, Cassius. Tell big sister you like it."
Her hand began to stroke, slow, firm drags up and down the length through the towel.
His hips jerked involuntarily.
"I know you do." She cooed. "I can feel how much you like it. So tell me. Say it. If you do..."
She leaned closer, breasts flattening fully against his back again.
"...big sister will wash this place too."
She promised, voice dripping honey.
"After fucking Portiaâs ass like that, itâs surely quite dirty. Quite a mess. So, big sister needs to make sure her little brotherâs penis is perfectly clean...inside and out."
"Make it clean again...and then make it dirty in a different way."
She nipped his earlobe.
"So tell me youâre getting hard because of me, Cassius. Tell me your cock is throbbing for your big sister."
"Say it...and Iâll wash every inch of you. Thoroughly."
Cassiusâs breathing was ragged now, chest heaving.
The internal war was tearing him apart.
One side screamed to push her away.
The other side was drowning in how good her hand felt.
Under the pressure, under the heat, under the relentless teasingâ
âhe broke.
"Y-Yes..." He whispered, voice shaking. "My penis...my penis is getting so hard right now."
He squeezed his eyes shut.
"I donât know whyâI know I shouldnâtâbut...itâs getting so hard..."
Aquaâs smile turned radiant, triumphant and tender all at once.
"Good boy." She breathed against his ear. "Now let your big sister take care of the rest."
Her hand slipped beneath the towel.
And wrapped around him.
Skin on skin.
Finally.
