“So, tell me, Gorgeous,” Tor started, curling me under his arm as we walked down the hall. “What do you want to do? We know what Xan, Drayce, and I are going to be doing now that this craziness is done. What about you?”
“Oh,” I exclaimed, “I don’t know if I ever really thought about it, to be honest, but with everything that happened, I think being a liaison between the academies would be amazing. At least until everything is situated and worked out with the new school programs. I want to help be that voice that ensures all students are represented, not just Mixtas. What about you, Kye? Cas?” I asked them when I realized they were looking over at me. Kye’s head was tilted slightly in thought, his lower lip tucked between his teeth before he started talking.
“I think working with the vlog, Henry, and my dad on technorunes. I think that would be awesome.”
“Me? Uh…” Cas started before trailing off. He rubbed the back of his neck, humming in thought before finally continuing. “I think owning my own shop for potions, either in Crystal Burough or Ignis, depending on where we decide to go for the majority of the time after Aether. But wherever we end up, I’d love to be able to brew potions, maybe even open up a Witches Glass shop like they have in Aureus, where you can order ‘online’ and have it shipped to you. I think that’d be really good for Akasha.”
“I think that’s an awesome idea, Cas,” Tor told his brother encouragingly, and Caspian’s cheeks tinted pink as a shy smile curled his lips.
“Thanks, Tor,” he murmured happily, clearly unused to being the center of attention, especially from his brother. “Congrats on getting headmaster. I know you’ve wanted to be able to make an impact on witches for a long time.”
“Thanks,” Tor responded, his freckled cheeks flushing the same shade as his brother’s.
They’re so adorable, I thought to myself as Xan opened the door to the suite we had been given. A little awkward, but they’ll get used to getting along.
Unable to stop myself, I squealed quietly and practically skipped into the room, spinning excitedly when I reached the center of the large open space. Mr. Stripes squeaked happily, popping up out of his cocoon bed on the tower in the corner and climbing down quickly to come over. Scooping him up, I spun another few times, my cheeks hurting from how wide my smile was.
“How was your night, baby? Did you all have fun?” I cooed, giving him lots of kisses.
“I think they had quite the night,” Drayce chuckled, pointing to the other familiars, all passed out in a deep sleep, cuddled together in their small bed.
“You get some sleep,” I told Mr. Stripes, petting him comfortingly behind the ears. “The last few months have been stressful, and you deserve to enjoy the holiday like us. We’ll be back at school and all the fun classes soon enough.”
Patting my cheeks with his little hands, he rubbed his face on mine before hopping to the ground. He walked the few feet to the others, joining their pile of snuggles and settling in for the night.
“They’re so cute,” I whispered, my heart squeezing at their adorableness as Caspian swept me up into a hug, my feet coming off the ground when he spun me around.
“You’re cute, Cupcake,” he told me quietly, kissing me passionately as he set me down. “But the night isn’t over.”
“Oh?” I questioned, my brow raising. The heated note in his voice caught my attention. When Kye appeared with a box, my brows shot up at the perfect wrapping and intricate bow on top, and I couldn’t stop the flood of excitement that washed through me.
“Happy Yule, Sweets,” Kye told me with a tiny grin. Taking the box, I sank onto the bed and opened the wrapping.
“Yummy!!” I nearly shouted when I saw the assortment of Hex Mix flavored packages. A tag attached to the front of one of them explained everything within that specific bag was needed to do a ‘Create Your Own’ Hex Mix concoction, and I couldn’t wait to use it. “Thank you, Kye. Here, let me get your presents real quick.”
Hopping up, I darted over to my spelled bag. Once it was open, and I found where the items were, I dug them out and passed them to each guy. They inspected their boxes, bags, and bows with happy smiles and excited glints in their eyes.
“Go on, open!” I instructed with a clap of my hands.
“What about your presents, Cupcake?” Cas asked.
“We can do mine after yours. Besides, you already treated me to the best present of them all.” My eyes glanced down at the ring encircling my finger, the bubble of happiness that had bloomed within me, only seeming to grow at the sight. No one argued, and the sound of rustling and ripping paper filled the space as they opened their gifts.
One by one, there were gasps and smiles. For Caspian, a set of new potion bottles and a magical shelf that would grow to fit his needs and as many potion supplies as his heart desired. For Kye, a booklet on technorunes, some practice tiles, and a new rune bag to wear. His previous one had gotten scuffed and worn during our treks through the Akasha wildness.
A new battle brooms board for Drayce, with an engraved set of brooms specifically for him. For Xan, my artist, a set of paints he had been eyeballing every time we’d gone to the market, the colors spelled to continue to swirl and shift even once dried. Finally, stubborn Torryn, a magical nameplate for his desk. The front held his full name, along with Professor Bossy engraved on it while the back corresponding plate would showcase whatever I wrote, no matter where I was. Though it was supposed to be for his office or classroom, it would be perfect for the headmaster’s office, knowing I could write him a little note whenever I wanted even if I was in class or he was busy.
“These are amazing, Angel,” Drayce said, his head whipping between the five of them and taking in each gift. “Thank you.”
“Of course, only the best for my loves,” I responded joyfully. Each of them came forward to give me their gifts, except Torryn.
“Mine’s a bit different,” he explained when I looked over at him. “You’ll see, promise.”
I felt myself melt a little with their presents, each uniquely fitting the witch who gave them to me. I couldn’t stop my smile from growing even more. Xan had given me a new pair of pink Converse, the sides painted with black designs that screamed his artistic style. He had also given me my own set of paints and a collapsible easel. I may never be a very good artist, but I couldn’t wait to learn more from him, knowing I would enjoy every minute of our time together.
Caspian and Drayce had given me a joint present, a couple of coupons for baking and cooking classes for the three of us, both here in the capital and back in Crystal Burough. A chuckle left me when my mind spiraled to our first time baking together, but I knew if there was no Witch’s Brew, our food would—hopefully—be edible.
“Ready, Gorgeous?” Torryn asked after I had looked through each present, soaking up everything they had given me. Nodding, I waited for him to tell me what was going on, but he only held out his hand. I reached out, interlacing our fingers, and stood, letting him guide me to a dresser against one wall.
On top sat a dome of bows, no wrapping paper or box to be seen amid the shiny and glittery loops. It wasn’t until I started to pick them off, I realized they were spelled to stay floating over his gift.
“Oh, my Gods and Goddesses!!” I squealed, hopping up and down when I saw what was hidden underneath. “You got me a record player and records from Aureus?! Where did you even find them?” My eyes were wide, possibly even wider than my gaping mouth, but Torryn didn’t laugh at my silliness.
“An old friend has a stall in the market. I think you’d remember her from her trinket store back in Aether,” he explained.
“Gertie’s here? That’s so exciting! We’ll definitely have to go see her tomorrow during the festival, but for now, I want to see how this thing works. Any clues, professor?”
“It’s headmaster now, Sweets,” Kye teased with a smirk. Sticking my tongue out at him, I listened to Tor walk through, step-by-step, how to work the machine, and soon enough, the space fil
led with seductive notes and hypnotic melodies. As soon as I started to dance, Caspian stepped up, spinning me around to the beat. My stomach swarmed with butterflies when the guys passed me around the room, twirling me along with the music while I giggled wildly. Drayce smiled warmly as he twirled me out, then back in, capturing my lips in a kiss.
“My turn,” Torryn demanded, pulling me out of Drayce’s embrace and waltzing me around the room. “I like seeing you smile this much.”
“You guys make me so happy, and after all that good news, who wouldn’t be?” I gushed, gasping as he grabbed my waist and lifted me in the air, twirling us around the common room of our suite.
The music switched from a fun pop song to a slow and sultry tune, and he ended our final spin with a kiss. Torryn walked away, but I was too into the dancing to follow, letting the music wash over me and dancing on my own in the center of the space. Opening my eyes, I found their five gazes watching me move my body fluidly around the open space, feeling incredibly sexy and in the moment.
“Striptease!” Drayce called out, his heated look telling me how serious he was.
Challenge accepted!
As I did a slow spin, I used my telekinesis to slowly undo the buttons, the dress slipping to the floor torturously slow, a little farther down with each twirl. The dress had a deep, plunging neckline, so I wasn’t wearing a bra, and my chest was bared first. They let out a collective groan as I rolled my hips in a sensual circle, locking eyes with one after the other as I moved, my eyes full of challenge and promise.
The moment the dress hit the floor, I magicked it to the side, draping it over the couch and laughing at the intake of breath when they spotted my pale pink lace thong. Drayce was the first to make a move, stalking closer with his eyes locked on me. I never stopped dancing as Drayce matched my movements. We didn’t look away as we moved through the room, the dance a more intimate form of foreplay than we’d ever had. My pussy ached for him, fire burning through me with every brush of my body against his.
“I can’t just watch this anymore,” Caspian husked as he joined us. Drayce immediately moved to draw him in, all three of us writhing together as the music transitioned into a similar song, which I had a feeling Kye had something to do with.
“I think you guys are a bit too overdressed,” I teased, turning, so I was facing Drayce. I lifted his shirt off, thankful he’d lost his bowtie and jacket already. Unbuttoning his pants, I dropped to my knees, pulling them and his boxers down with me. His hard cock sprang out, and I smirked up at him from under my lashes before bracing my hands on his hips and teasing my tongue over his length. His hands moved to my hair, resting in the curls as I dragged my tongue along the underside of his dick, licking the precum off of the tip before taking him inside my mouth. Caspian didn’t wait, sliding to the floor behind me and placing kisses along my spine, hands roaming over my sides before reaching around me to tweak my pebbled peaks. I gasped against the slight sting, clenching my aching thighs as I bobbed my head while I let Drayce fuck my mouth. Desire leaked down my thighs, and I needed so much more. Not wanting to take my mouth off of Drayce, I wiggled my ass to convey to Caspian what I needed. He slowly slipped my thong off, goosebumps erupting on my skin as he exposed my pussy.
The thought that all the guys were in the room watching this crossed my mind, but I was too lost in the lust to check on them. Caspian parted my legs, trailing his fingers around my waist and over my ass, before teasing my pussy and groaning as soon as he slipped a finger inside and realized how wet I was.
“She wants you to fuck her, Caspian,” Kye said, his voice full of lust. I nodded vigorously as I took Drayce in even further, swallowing him down, barely stopping from gagging. He wasn’t a small guy, but his little satisfied noises were like music to my ears.
“Let’s readjust here,” Xan said as he walked over, the sound of his footsteps causing me to look up. He was looking at us quizzically before turning to the others. “Someone, go grab some lube.” Torryn nodded before getting up and walking off. My heart beat wildly in anticipation and lust as I waited to hear what he was thinking. “Come with me.” Xan reached out a hand and led us to the bedroom I’d claimed, the one with the biggest bed. When I started to move to the bed, he held me back, pointing at Kye, who had no trouble following that order.
“Are you feeling adventurous, Muse?” Xan asked, his hand sliding to my bare ass to emphasize his point. I swallowed but nodded, trusting them to take care of me. “Then climb on up. I’ll let Torryn take your ass, he’ll be gentle.” His smile was sweet and genuine. I loved how much he was looking out for me.
Kissing him quickly, I climbed onto the bed, moving over Kye. He was slowly stroking himself, having undressed before taking his spot. I leaned down and kissed him deeply before repositioning and sinking slowly onto his cock. We both moaned as he filled me, stilling our movement as the bed dipped, a now naked Xan moving in next to us. His fingers wrapped around the back of my neck, pulling me in for a heated kiss, his tongue sweeping into my mouth, teasing mine. When he finally released me, I was panting and so fucking turned on, I thought I’d combust.
“Worry about Caspian, Drayce, and me after Torryn is in position,” Xan ordered, nodding behind me where Torryn must have been waiting.
“You alright with this, Gorgeous?” Torryn asked. In answer, I leaned down over Kye, giving him access. Kye started kissing me, his fingertips running up and down my back to keep me relaxed as Torryn opened the lube, the click of the cap making me still for a moment before I forced myself to relax. I hissed as he ran his fingers between my cheeks, teasing over my entrance, slowly sliding a finger inside. The intrusion felt weird, but he was moving so gently, I let my focus fall back on Kye, his hands moving up to twist in my hair and kiss me until I was breathless and writhing.
Torryn added a second finger, stretching me as he pumped his fingers in and out, the sting intensifying yet mixing with pleasure. I was dripping wet and trying my best not to rock on Kye’s cock. Drayce and Caspian moved to the bed on each side of me as Tor finished his preparation.
Torryn slid in, inch by delicious inch as he buried himself to the hilt. The fullness left me breathless, but my body adjusted quickly, thanks to his prep. The pain slowly ebbed away to pleasure, my body lighting on fire as I sat up and hands found my skin, touching and teasing every inch they could touch. I’d never felt more worshipped than at that moment, and it was amazing.
Xan moved again, sitting on his knees and putting his dick within my reach. I leaned over, taking him in my mouth, teasing him with my tongue. When Kye started to thrust up, I dropped all pretense of teasing and hollowed out my cheeks, my head bobbing over Xan with each thrust Kye made. Not wanting Caspian and Drayce to miss out, I reached out, wrapping my fingers around their leaking cocks. When Torryn started to move, I nearly exploded right then, my body on fire with all the different sensations. Xan’s hand moved to the back of my head, taking over the movements while Kye and Torryn worked out the perfect rhythm. With each of Kye’s thrusts, my orgasm built a little higher, the position perfectly hitting my bundle of nerves each time.
When someone reached out and kneaded my breasts, rolling my nipples between their fingers, I exploded, crying out as pleasure raced through me, my legs shaking as my pussy quivered around Kye’s cock.
“Fuck, you feel so good,” Kye groaned. The words filled me with pride, knowing I was enough to satisfy all of my men, even at once.
Xan moved faster, his movements faltering until he thrust one last time, holding me in place as he came, spilling down the back of my throat. Swallowing him down, I swirled my tongue over him as he pulled out. I sucked in a full breath of air as Torryn took advantage of the moment and started fucking me faster. Kye followed suit, smirking up at me as his hand slid between us, my already sensitive clit responding to his touch and sending me careening into a second orgasm. He relentlessly swirled his fingers over me, prolonging the high.
Kye thrust into me, his hands moving to my hip
s and tightening as he lost the last bit of his control. When his release filled me, he growled out my name before leaning up and capturing me in a crushing kiss. As he rode out the last waves of his orgasm, he shuddered, his abs tightening with each shiver that wracked his body.
Torryn was moving gently as Kye came, then shifted and fucked me harder, holding me still with bruising fingers as he chased his release, leaning down and nipping along my spine as he fucked me. Whispers of green magic swirled around us as he lost control, pulling me tight to his chest and biting down on my shoulder as he came undone.
My body felt boneless after that, but I wasn’t done. Torryn slowly pulled out, and I whimpered at the sting. He helped move me off of Kye, who shifted over the bed, laying me down on my back. Drayce moved between my legs, and my lips curled into a smile as he grinned down at me.
“You want more, Angel?”
“Yes,” I said, hooking my hands around my knees and pulling my legs open, exposing myself to him. His eyes locked onto my dripping pussy, an almost pained expression forming before he moved in and lined himself up, thrusting into me.
“Caspian.” His name came out breathlessly, but I beckoned him forward until he settled on the bed, so I had access to his cock. I opened my mouth and waited as he took the cue, sliding between my lips. Words were lost as they fucked me in tandem, my body already responding as Drayce’s fingers teased my clit while he pumped in and out of me at a furious pace, chasing the release he’d been dying for since we’d danced.
Now that it was just the three of us, I focused on Caspian a bit more, teasing him with my tongue each time he thrust his hips forward, and the combination of that and me hollowing my cheeks had him panting and rocking into me, silently begging for more. I relaxed my throat, swallowing him down as my hands moved to his balls, teasing him lightly as he fucked my mouth. When he started to tense, Drayce moved his hand to grip the base of Cas’ dick, guiding each thrust as I brought him to the edge.
