Deadly Game: An Academy Bully Romance (Academy of the Gods Book 3)

by River Ramsey

  Hades raised an eyebrow, but he complied. So did Fenrir. I licked my lips at the sight of their glorious cocks on display and decided I liked this whole logistical planning thing. As fun as taking turns was, I wanted them all and I wanted them now.

  “Now you,” I purred, placing a hand on both Dionysus’ and Loki’s faces. They were both so beautiful on their own, but together, they made a sight too perfect to be real.

  “Yes?” Loki asked, his eyes glimmering with amusement.

  “I want to touch you,” I said, my eyes flickering over to Dionysus. “While he fucks me.”

  “Sounds like she knows what she wants,” Loki mused.

  “It does,” Dionysus agreed. Nice to see them getting along, for once. Maybe one day it would actually happen outside of the bedroom.

  Turning back to Hades and Fenrir, I ran a hand down each of their chests before settling on my hands and knees. I took Fenrir into my mouth first, savoring the salty taste of his precome. He growled in approval, fisting his hand in my hair. I stroked Hades as I continued to suck Fenrir off and felt Dionysus’ hands on my hips.

  My gasp as he eased into me made Fenrir tense up, his grip on my hair tightening. “Fuck,” he breathed.

  Dionysus was sheathed inside of me, and I arched into him, letting Fenrir’s cock slide from my mouth as I turned my attention to Hades. I’d begun to adjust to the rhythm of pleasuring them while Dionysus thrust into me. I reached for Loki’s cock, enjoying the sound of him hissing air through his teeth as his body responded immediately to my touch. The feeling of connectedness between us bloomed into dizzying pleasure and I took turns pleasuring them until we were all on the precipice of coming.

  At first, I’d wondered how I was going to keep up with four hungry lovers, but I was starting to think I could get the hang of this. Of course, there were benefits to one-on-one time as well, but why limit ourselves?

  A moan escaped my throat as my body trembled and my core tightened around Dionysus’ cock. Hades came a moment before he did, the taste of his arousal pouring over my tongue. I turned my full attention to Fenrir and Loki. Fenrir’s grip tightened even more and I swallowed down the sound of his growls along with his seed. Loki wasn’t far behind.

  Before long, we were all collapsed in a tangled pile of limbs and dreamy sighs, still bathing in the afterglow of what we’d shared. “That was amazing,” I panted, my head falling back against Hades’ arm. Dionysus was pressed against my other side, twisting a strand of my hair around his finger.

  “I guess I could get used to sharing,” Hades said, his voice still rough with satisfaction.

  “Mmh,” Fenrir grumbled in agreement, already half-asleep. Probably a good thing there were four of them. I was starting to think I’d wear them out otherwise.

  Epilogue

  Kore

  As I looked up at the Academy gates, a wave of nostalgia came crashing over me. So much had changed since I’d first stepped foot inside those ivy-covered walls. The Underworld wasn’t the only thing that had transformed, and now that our three-month sojourn was at an end, it was finally time to get back to normal.

  Hades would still have to return to the Underworld every couple of months, until he and the others graduated. I still had another two years to go, but I had been granted special permission from the Headmaster himself to return with Hades and continue my studies remotely for what worked out to be six months out of the year.

  Not a bad arrangement, all things considered. Of course, there had been some fighting over the room and board situation now that we were back at the Academy, but there was bound to be some conflict. The makeup sex was too good to complain.

  “Come on,” Loki said, draping an arm around my shoulder. “You’ve already got enough of a reputation without being late for the first day of class.”

  I nudged him playfully with my hip as Dionysus, Fenrir and Hades caught up with us. If anyone had told me one day I’d be walking into school with them willingly, I would have laughed in their faces, but life had a way of turning things on its head. Especially my life ever since I’d come back from the dead.

  The moment we walked through the doors, all the chatter in the packed hallway died down. Everyone turned to stare at us, and for a second, I found myself wondering if I was in one of those awful dreams where I went to school without wearing pants. I even glanced down, but nope. Uniform skirt on, not even tucked into my panties or anything. That meant they could only be gawking about the fact that I’d just breezed into school with my one-time mortal enemies, but if I could get used to it, so could they.

  “Alright, that’s enough,” Odin scolded, walking down the hallway. “Everyone get to class or you’ll be staying late and cleaning the alchemy lab.”

  That cleared the halls in record time. I hadn’t actually spoken with Odin in person since giving my testimony to Kunzite before the OSTF, and I could tell from the stern look he was giving me that not everything about this school year was going to be different.

  “Lord Hades,” Odin said, nodding to the young god. I was sure it ate him up to have to defer to someone a fraction of his age, but he must have really been dreading my impending coronation. Lucky for him, Hades and I weren’t tying the knot officially until after we’d both graduated. Of course, we’d gotten a good head start on the honeymoon.

  “Ms. Ademone,” Odin said, forcing himself to look at me. “Welcome back.”

  “Guess we’re chopped liver,” Loki said wryly.

  Odin gave his son a weary look, but if nothing else, at least things seemed to have improved between them. As hard as it had been for Odin to accept Thor’s betrayal, he really hadn’t had a choice once all the facts were laid out for him. To his credit, he was logical even when it came to matters close to home.

  “I’m not even sure what to call you three, let alone what the proper term of address is,” Odin scoffed.

  “‘The future Queen’s lovers’ does have a nice ring to it,” Fenrir taunted.

  The scowl on Odin’s face made it clear he didn’t find the suggestion amusing. “This may be too much to ask, but I expect this school year to be unremarkable and, at the very least, not to end with half the Academy being reduced to rubble.”

  He was looking right at me as he spoke that last bit, and I mean...fair enough. “I’ll try to keep the mayhem to a minimum, sir.”

  It was hard to keep a straight face while trying to pretend like his son wasn’t grabbing my ass. The moment Odin turned to walk away from us, I turned and slugged Loki in the arm. Fondly, of course.

  “Save it for the bedroom,” Fenrir snapped, shoving into him.

  “Please. I’d be surprised if you pigs had the restraint to make it to the broom closet during lunch,” Dionysus quipped, adjusting his bag on his shoulder. He’d adapted to the barbs and roughhousing quicker than I expected.

  “Yeah, right. You can pretend you’re civilized, but you’re as horny as the rest of us,” Hades said, ruffling his hair.

  Dionysus shot him a venomous glare, but their bickering was always short lived. And when it wasn’t, I had some tried and true go-to methods of getting them all back on the same team.

  “Come on. We really are gonna be late for class,” I warned, rounding the corner that led to the alchemy lab.

  I collided with a girl and her friend walking in the other direction and winced as a stack of her books spilled to the floor. “Sorry,” I said, kneeling down to pick them up. When I lifted my head, I almost dropped them again.

  “Jazzy?” I cried, looking over at Baylor next to her. I blinked a few times to clear my vision, but they both remained, dressed in matching new uniforms. “What the fuck are you two doing here?”

  “Getting concussed by a clumsy bitch, apparently,” Baylor quipped, planting a hand on her hip. The mischief glimmering in her eyes was something I hadn’t even realized I’d missed until now.

  “Who are these girls?” Hades asked defensively, clearly missing the sarcasm in her voice. To be fair, the way we�
��d always showed affection to each other probably seemed pretty vicious from an outsider’s perspective. My communication style hadn’t really changed all that much.

  “Jazzy and Baylor,” I answered, throwing my arms around their necks and squeezing tight. “Remember the nymphs I told you guys about?”

  “You mean your girl gang?” Fenrir asked, raising an eyebrow.

  Jazzy laughed, slipping her arm around my waist. “Ride or die, bitches.” She smirked, looking Fenrir up and down with a predatory gaze I knew all too well. “So, which one of these morsels are you fucking?”

  I cleared my throat. “All of them.”

  She and Baylor blinked in unison, giving me the same disbelieving look.

  “Seriously?” Baylor asked.

  “Yeah,” I answered, laughing at her shock.

  “You slut,” Jazzy said in a tone of admiration.

  I rolled my eyes. “High compliments, coming from you. There’s a lot I have to fill you guys in on, but first things first, what are you even doing here?”

  “We enrolled,” Baylor answered. “You made the drama here sound so juicy, we wanted to find out firsthand.”

  “That and we’re tired of you being impossible to get ahold of,” Jazzy said with a pout.

  “Things have been kind of crazy,” I admitted, glancing back at the guys. “But in the best way.”

  “Clearly,” Baylor said wryly.

  “Forgive my bluntness, but aren’t only gods and goddesses allowed to enroll?” asked Dionysus.

  “Yeah, but I blew the Headmaster, so it’s all good,” Jazzy said in her usual sardonic tone. I knew she was joking, but the look of horror on Loki’s face said otherwise.

  “She’s kidding,” I assured him. “Ladies, meet Loki. The Headmaster’s kid.”

  “Ohhh,” Baylor said with a snicker. “Guess the good looks run in the family.”

  For once, Loki seemed speechless. I was starting to think I’d be too busy reigning them in to cause the mayhem Odin feared, and I couldn’t help but suspect that was at least part of the reason he’d relaxed the rules.

  Well played, old man.

  “This is Hades, Dionysus, and Fenrir,” I said, introducing each of them. “Try to play nice.”

  “We’ll see,” Baylor said in a tone that was only half as menacing as the smile she threw over her shoulder before they both walked off to class.

  “I think I’m scared,” Loki said after a moment’s contemplation. “Should I be scared?”

  “Definitely,” I said, leaning up to kiss his cheek. “But I’ll protect you.”

  He laughed and we finally headed to class. I was already mentally planning out a seating chart for us in the back of the classroom where there was plenty of room for us all to sit together, wanting to avert any arguments until at least lunch. There was still so much ahead of us, but everything we’d conquered in the past made me confident there was nothing we couldn’t tackle. Not as long as we stayed together.

  The first time I walked through these halls, all I could think about was surviving until graduation. Now, I was almost sad I only had two years left.

  Almost.

  The End.
