“Well,mynipples aren’t pierced, but yours are. Bram’s are too, but you can help walk Reyson through it.”
“Hold on. Killian, do we want to go watch Bram pierce Reyson’s nipples?”
“Are you kidding? That would be thrilling. You saw what he did to Dorian. It’s a fifty-fifty chance he’s going to get dramatic when Bram shoves a needle in his nipple.”
“Good point. We’ll be there, but if Reyson randomly decides he wants his dick pierced while we are there, I’m going to need therapy. I’m all about seeing what god dick looks like, but not when it’s being used on my twin sister.”
“He’s not going to whip his cock out in front of my twin sister, Ravyn. He knows I’ll kill him for that. Felix would get mad, too. He gets all offended when dicks come out for no reason.”
“Do I want to know why dicks are coming out for no reason in your library?”
“Probably not. Get over here.”
I hung up and looked over at Killian. He looked amazing with his hair and nails like that. I was trying so hard not to stare, but I’d always been honest with him before. This was all new to him. I got it. He was fully embracing having his body back in this century. He’d always supported me in everything, even if it was a spectacularly stupid idea.
“Damn, son. You look fine as hell like that.”
Killian pushed his glasses up his nose and gave me a knowing smirk. Did he feel the same thing I felt when we were touching? He used to tell me not to wear certain trousers out because they made my ass look big. If he could go there with me, he would definitely say something if he felt the same vibes I was, so I changed the subject.
“Let’s go watch a god get his nipples pierced.”
Chapter5
Killian
Icertainly never got invited to these many nipple piercings the last time I was alive. I was there with Ravyn when she got hers done because if someone was going to shove needles through her nipples, they had better be treating her breasts like precious cargo. They werereallynice breasts.
After Ravyn, I didn’t expect to witness another one. Ripley was with us and said she didn’t want hers done. Reyson was Reyson, though. Ripley said he wouldn’t, but I wouldn’t put it past him to decide on a cock piercing while we were there.
He could be this big teddy bear with his fondness for modern junk food and devotion to Ripley, but honestly? He terrified me. I heard the story about how Felix got his body back. Felix knocked over his cookies because he was a cat. Reyson changed his inky black coat to have white fur on his face in the shape of a dick.
Felix was understandably pissed about it, and Ripley asked Reyson to put it back. He didn’t want her to be mad at him. So instead of just putting Felix’s fur back, he left it the way it was and managed to give him his body back in its prime. Just to impress Ripley because he wanted to marry her.
We all saw what he did to Dorian Gray for kidnapping Ripley. Demon magic was completely unfamiliar to me, but everyone on Earth feared it because if you made a deal, there was no fighting it when payment was due. When those women flung it at Reyson, it destroyed his clothes but didn’t leave a mark on him.
I didn’t know him nearly as well as Ripley and her guys, but you wouldn’t catch me anywhere near his nipples with a sharp needle, even if he asked. Ijustgot my body back, and he could be petty.
When we got to Ripley’s apartment, apparently, Reyson wasn’t the only one getting pierced. Balthazar was running around topless for some reason, but was getting two spikes in his lip. Gabriel wanted a ring at the top of his ear, and Ripley was getting a nostril piercing. I didn’t peg Felix for getting anything pierced, but he wanted his ears done.
“Seriously, Ripley? You invited me to your harem piercing party?”
“You went and got new hair. I thought you might want a new piercing, too. Killian has new hair too. He might want something pierced as well. Bram apprenticed at a piercing shop in New York, so he knows what he’s doing. He works there sometimes for cash when he’s on extended trips here. So he knows what he’s doing.”
Ravyn might not want something, but did I? I’d been with the twins every time they got a new piercing or tattoo. I talked about the pros and cons with Ravyn when she wanted a new one. I heard her talk about the endorphin rush afterward.
Yeah, I wanted one.
“I think I want my septum pierced.”
“That’s going to be totally adorable. Don’t you think, Ravyn?” Ripley said, giving her a pointed look.
Before I knew it, Bram was preparing Balthazar, Felix had kidnapped me, and Ripley ran off with Ravyn. I knew what this was. This was a divide and conquer, good old fashioned witch intervention disguised as a piercing party. I sat next to Felix in the chair.
“Hit me with it. What’s therealreason for the invite?”
“Reyson was already planning that piercing, and we joined in. Ripley is worried about her twin. Valentine is coming back, and I think we’d all prefer to see her with you.”
So would I.
