And it turned out, they both lasted longer than I could. The tight convulsions of pleasure spreading out from my core seemed amplified by all the spite that existed between us, but in those blissful moments, all was forgiven. On my end, at least. I was sure I’d go back to hating them once the orgasmic dreaminess wore off, but right now, I just wanted more.
More of them. More of the addictive elation. More of the illusion that life could actually be this simple and enjoyable for more than a few fleeting moments.
The vibrations of my moans as I came seemed to push Loki over the edge. I felt him ease back, as much restraint as it had to take, giving me the option to stop before he reached the brink. I put a hand on his hip and took him in deeper, letting him fill my throat as he came. He gave a startled gasp as Hades pumped into me relentlessly, driving deeper into my core. I tightened around him naturally with another orgasmic convulsion as he filled me. His come felt hot and sinful inside of me and dribbled down my thigh as he finally pulled out.
I drew Loki’s softening shaft from my mouth, licking off what I hadn’t already swallowed. When I finally met his gaze, his eyes were bluer than they’d ever been and if I didn’t know better, I’d think there was something soft about the way he was looking at me.
Hades was as unceremonious about pulling out of me as he was with everything else, but as I collapsed against the bed, I couldn’t even be annoyed with him. How could I when my whole body was still pulsing with satisfaction?
“That was…” I trailed off when I realized I didn’t have the word for it. Not one that wouldn’t inflate their already overburdened egos, at least.
“Mmh,” Loki purred in agreement, collapsing against the headboard. He reached to stroke my hair, a strangely sweet gesture in the aftermath of the hot and dirty moment we’d just shared.
Hades collapsed on my other side, an arm draped over his eyes to block out the sun that was just beginning to rise.
“That answers that question,” I muttered.
“What?” Loki asked, his eyes still glazed as he looked down at me.
“There is morning in the Ether.”
He snorted a laugh, or something close to one, his fingers still absently playing with my tangled hair.
To my surprise, Hades’ arm dropped over my side and I felt the warmth of him stretched alongside my back. We weren’t quite cuddling, but it was a hell of a lot closer than I thought him capable of, and I wasn’t sure I minded.
In fact, as I started to drift off, overcome by sleepy satisfaction, the only regret I had was that it hadn’t been a foursome.
Chapter 6
Hades
The moment I opened my eyes, I knew I’d fucked up. Last night had made it easy to live in the delusion that our moment of fun would have no lasting consequences, but dream or not, something had changed. I could feel it in the subtle shift that had always linked me with Loki and Fenrir, and now with Kore.
Granted, fucking my own fiancee was far from the most controversial thing I’d ever done, but the fact that I’d done it with Loki…
We’d shared women before, but never when the stakes were this high. Just meaningless flings, which Kore wasn’t.
I wasn’t even sure what Korewas, since meaningless flings were the only thing I’d ever bothered with, but what Ares thought she was had me more concerned.
Or rather, what Ares thoughtIwas toher.
Consort. The word still echoed in my mind, chaffing at my ego. It was one thing to have her bound to me and another to have the damn god of war saying I was practically her manservant. And one of four, no less.
I wasn’t sure if he was just fucking with us, or if a practical eternity in the Ether had merely driven him insane, but either way, I wasn’t going to let my guard down around him.
It looked like I was the first one up, and Loki had draped his arm over Kore’s side at some point in the night. We’d been a hell of a lot more intimate than that, but the sight still stirred an irrational flame of jealousy within me.
Yeah. Sleeping with her was definitely a mistake. My head was foggy enough where she was concerned.
“Wake up,” I muttered, getting out of bed to pull on the clothes that were mingled with theirs in a pile on the floor.
Kore’s eyes flew open and I could tell the moment all the memories of last night sank in. It was more amusing to watch it replay on her face than it had been to relive it myself.
“Sleep well?” I taunted.
She flipped me off and pulled away from Loki, sifting through the clothes. I held out her panties, dangling them from my finger. “Looking for these?”
She snatched them back with a death glare and I couldn’t help but grin. The only way I was going to live this down was by making sure she didn’t.
