"I just... I feel it." I yanked the hair tie out of my hair and retied my bun, a nut falling to the ground. "It must be the bond or some shit."
"I wasn't going to kill him." Sammy dropped her sword. "I will if he ever acts without consulting one of us again."
"For everything? What if I have to take a shit? Do I have to ask for permission?" Val wiped a tear that had escaped off his face and smiled when Sammy shot daggers at him with her eyes. "I know what you mean, bruja."
"Sammy!" Kage was running across the field at a sprint. He was sweaty and out of breath by the time he collapsed to his knees in front of Sammy. "I came as soon as I saw the explosion. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." She dropped in front of him and kissed him like they had been apart for days.
I raised a brow as he looked like he was shoving his tongue down her throat. I had never seen him put on such a public display before besides pecks and hugs.
I cleared my throat and they turned their heads up toward me. "Where's Picard?" Despite our differences, Picard and I had bonded during my time as a squirrel. Not that I understood a word he said to me during that time.
"There was a break in the barrier right inside the tent and he said, 'adios motherfucker, I'm going to Hawaii.' I have no idea what he meant or if he'll be back."
"Hawaii is an island on Earth. It's described as a paradise with pristine waters." Val sounded like he was citing the words right out of a book. Knowing him, he probably was.
"He called you a motherfucker?" Sammy furrowed her brows and put her hand on Kage's cheek, even though he clearly was fine with being called that.
"It sounded like a term of endearment." Kage laughed and went for Sammy's lips again, wrapping his arms around her in a possessive way.
My cheeks heated as Kage lowered her to the grass and laid on top of her. I looked to Val and Amari to share in the absurdity to find them locked in a heated stare.
"Oh, for serpent's sake, are we really doing this, right here?" I threw my hands in the air and looked around.
I was by no means modest, but we were sweaty as fuck, and eventually someone would come looking for us.
"We? You're the only one standing there worried about someone seeing your ass." Sammy giggled as Kage moved his lips to her neck.
"I'm not worried. Am I the only one here that has any common sense right now?" I put my hands on my hips. "We almost just died."
"Even more reason to rip our clothes off and go at it." Kage looked at me and my eyes widened.
My jaw dropped, not only at Kage's sudden bravado, but also because the grass that came to about knee height grew up to my waist.
"Does that help?" Sammy bit her lip and shut her eyes. "Maybe I can make us a tent of branches or- oh yes." She arched up off the ground as Kage's hand moved between her legs.
Amari and Val fell onto the grass next to Sammy and Kage, making out like two teenagers in heat. I rubbed a hand down my face and then dropped it to my pants where my erection was pushing against the zipper of my pants.
I took one last glance around and then knelt next to Kage and Sammy. It wasn't that I didn't want to join, but the last thing we needed was a succubus stumbling upon us.
"I leave for ten minutes and I come back to an orgy?" Raphael laughed and then went silent as Amari ripped Val's shirt straight off him.
I groaned at how turned on I was getting and unbuttoned my pants, freeing myself. Sammy reached over and took me in her fist. Her touch sent tingles down my spine and straight to my balls.
Kage unbuttoned her pants and slipped his hand inside, causing her to arch off the ground again. He had her panting in seconds before he slipped her pants down just enough and thrust inside her.
"I knew we were all a little freaky, but out in the open like this?" Raphael took off his armor. "I'm not sure if I'm ready to get this down and dirty with all of you."
"Raph, straddle my head." Sammy managed between moans as Kage ignored all of us as he moved inside her.
Sammy had shared with me that he was an exceptional lover, but seeing it now, I saw why. He moved his hips in a way that made her tremble and moan with each deep thrust.
Raphael kicked off his shoes and pants and straddled her head. I groaned as she circled the head of his cock with her tongue with the same motion her thumb circled the head of mine.
On the other side of us, Amari had flipped Val onto his knees and their bodies slapped together with the unbridled passion of two lovers who had just rediscovered each other.
My balls tightened and I covered her hand with mine, increasing the speed of her strokes until my eyes nearly rolled into the back of my head.
She propped herself up on a forearm and urged me closer. She sucked my head, using one of her hands to wrap around both of us.
"Holy fuck." Raphael's head fell back as she alternated between our dicks.
Sammy's mouth was around my cock when her orgasm hit. She sucked it hard as Kage came right along with her. As soon as my dick popped free, I pushed Kage back and took his place, sliding right into her.
Raphael's back was too me, and I couldn't see Sammy, but something about that turned me on even more as I thrust in and out.
Amari was purring as his and Val's bodies slapped together. Val's hand worked his cock and he stiffened as he came on the grass beneath him.
"Fuck!" My balls tightened again and I couldn't stop from coming as Sammy's pussy clenched around me.
My seed spilled inside her as Raphael's body tensed in front of me.
"Did you hear that?" Kage whispered from behind me.
I tensed and pulled out of Sammy, shifting my ears to listen. I could hear talking in the distance, but nothing close.
"An owl circled a few times overhead. I'm sure we gave him a good show." Amari pulled up his pants and stood, stretching. "I could sure use a cat nap."
I scooped Sammy from the back of a carriage when we arrived back at the castle. She had protested not riding Buttercup at first, but she was exhausted and would have fallen asleep.
We had partied with the others until almost dawn and only gotten about an hour of sleep before we were due to head back to the castle.
The rifts in the barrier between Earth and Inferna had closed, and Raphael had said most of the demons had been pushed back through.
I had a hard time believing that the angels on Earth had caught all of them, but if that helped them sleep better at night, what did it matter to me? What I cared about was currently sleeping peacefully in my arms.
"Nico." Her head was against my shoulder and her eyes still shut. "I can walk."
I headed up the stairs with a nod to the guys. We had decided that drinks were in order after putting Sammy to bed. If we were going to make it work between all of us, we needed to spend some time together.
"You need to rest. Growing a fucking meadow with flowers and shit takes a lot of energy. Not to mention the sex and partying."
"I can party again." She sat up as soon as I laid her in the bed, her eyes half closed.
"Peanut, we need you well rested for all the shit you're going to have to deal with. Unless you've changed your mind about being queen. If so, then let's go party." I stood and held my hand out to her.
She rolled her eyes and laid back down. "Take off my shoes." She held a foot up.
"Is that how you're going to be now? High and mighty?" I slipped her shoes and socks off and knelt next to her to unbutton her pants.
"I will never be that type of queen. I want the new Infernal Council to decide if they want me as queen. If not, I'll just go and grow some trees."
I laughed and sat next to her, taking her hand. "Are you sure this is what you want? All you have to do is say the word and we can go live wherever you want."
She looked at our joined hands and ran her thumb back and forth. It made me want to fall asleep, but I didn't want to miss out on the discussion of sleeping arrangements with the guys.
"When I decided to come back here, all I wanted was for
there to be peace between our people like there used to be. But I wanted it to be even better than before. I can make it better, Nico. Even though I have absolutely no clue what I'm doing. Maybe an Infernal Council that is voted on by the villages will lead the way." She let out a yawn. "I never thought you'd stick around."
"I love you, why would I leave?" I bent down and kissed her cheek. "Besides, the guys aren't so bad. Val still has some groveling to do. You should make him wash your feet and hand feed you."
She laughed as I pulled away. "He's lost his way a bit and I'm partly to blame for that. I should have told him I was safe." Her eyes filled with tears and I would have given a handful of nuts not to have to see her cry. "I think he knows I'll kill him now."
"You have a big heart, Sammy. That's why we all gravitate toward you. Don't forget that, okay?" I kissed her knuckles and stood. "Now, I need to get downstairs for the first ever MOSH meeting."
"MOSH? Is that slang for discussing butt sex with them again?"
"You know about that?" I shook my head. "No, although possibly it might veer back in that horrid direction. MOSH stands for Men of Sammy's Harem."
She laughed as her eyes fell shut. I slipped out of the room and down the stairs to the dining room, where Amari, Val, Raphael, and Kage were already drinking.
"What'd I miss?"
"Raphael just used his phone and ordered a bed that's twelve feet wide." Kage poured tequila in the shot glass and slid it to me when I sat down next to him. "Now we don't have to touch each other when we sleep."
I drank the shot and cringed. "You don't want to cuddle with me, Kage? I'm hurt."
Kage frowned. "If you want to cuddle, I guess I could get used to it."
Amari smacked his hand on the table and laughed. "Cuddle up, boys. We've all seen each other's dicks now. There's no turning back."
He took something from Raphael and popped it in his mouth.
"What the fuck are you eating?" I narrowed my eyes. "Is that something with catnip in it?"
"It's a catnip cookie. I special ordered them from this pet bakery on Rodeo Drive." Raphael shrugged. "Only the best for my kitty cat."
"You can call me kitty cat all you want if you keep bringing me fancy shit from Earth." Amari licked his fingers and then slouched a bit in his seat. "So the bed is settled. What else could we possibly fight about?"
"Me." Val had been quiet. "I know none of you like me."
I folded my hands on the table and looked across at him. "I don't know you and what I do know I don't like." His frown deepened. "But Sammy loves you, so I guess I'll have to tolerate you."
"I murdered the last person I was bound to." The room went silent, and we all stared at Kage as if he had grown another head. "He beat me, so I killed him. If Val steps out of line, I'll take care of him."
Amari threw his head back and laughed. "Good one, Kage. You do that."
"I'm serious." Kage glared at Amari. "I put poison in his drink and he exploded."
I looked at the tequila bottle sitting in front of him. "Well, none of us plan on hitting you unless you ask us to spank you, so there will be no need to poison anyone's drink."
I grabbed the tequila bottle.
"I never in a million years thought I'd be talking to four other assholes I'm sharing a woman with about exploding people and buying a bed to fit us all. It must be true love." Amari laughed.
"Whatever it is, I wouldn't trade it for anything." I sat back in my chair and couldn't help the smile that spread across my face.
It had been a long time since I'd felt so complete. I hadn't just gotten Sammy. I'd gained a family I never thought I'd have.
Epilogue
Samara
I hated wearing dresses, but it only felt right to wear one for the official coronation and party. I pulled a few strands of purple hair free from my up-do to frame my face and put on my tiara. I would be trading it for a crown.
I looked at myself in the mirror and a grin spread across my face. When I was a girl, I had wanted to be queen for all the wrong reasons. Back then, it was the allure of having everything I'd ever wanted. Now, the only things I needed were the five men waiting for me downstairs.
It had taken the villages over a month to choose their representatives for the newly improved Infernal Council. They then elected me their queen.
I wasn't sure how long the peace and quiet in Inferna would last, but for now, things were calming down after centuries upon centuries of uncertainty. Demons who had previously caused the crown a headache, were now major advocates for me remaining in power.
Returning light to the land was helping too, even if it was a slow process. A little color made the grumpiest of demons much easier to manage.
A soft knock came on the bedroom door and I peeked my head out of the bathroom. "Come in!"
"Samara?" Reve opened the door and his face lit up when his eyes landed on me.
"Reve, you know I hate that name." Unless it was coming from one of my five men.
I practically skipped across the room and threw myself at him. His arms went around me and squeezed tight. I had only seen him briefly when he returned and denounced the throne.
"I apologize, Queen Samara." He released me and bowed at the hip before flicking one of my strands of hair. "This is really happening?"
"It really is." I let out a puff of air. "I don't know if I'm a fool or the luckiest woman in Inferna."
"You'll be an excellent queen." He looked around my room and his eyes landed on the bed. "Why not move to our parents' old quarters? There would be more space for that monstrosity."
"Too many bad memories in there." I slipped my feet into my heels and cringed. I hated heels. "Are you positive you didn't just come back to claim the throne?"
"I told you, I have no desire to be king. Never have, never will."
We had talked a few times over something Raphael called FaceTime, and Reve had been nothing but supportive of me. And who was I to judge him for staying on Earth? I'd do anything for my mates.
"How do I look?" I spun. "Like a queen?"
"Beautiful. I can't wait to see the look on those five pussy-whipped men when I walk you into the ballroom."
"You're one to talk."
We laughed and he looped his arm through mine as we left the room. The castle was bustling with more activity than I had seen in a long time. This would be the biggest, most inclusive ball anyone had ever seen. Representatives from all villages, even those that moved from place to place, would be in attendance.
Nerves fluttered in my stomach as we got closer to the ballroom door. Two guards nodded their chins to me and I stood a little taller.
Over the past several weeks I had been almost in a trance as everything fell into place. There wasn't much pushback against my plans for Inferna once word spread of what Raphael called my 'green thumb.'
I walked through the double doors and my eyes immediately went to the dais where Nico, Val, Amari, Kage, and Raphael stood in a line by my throne.
My throne.
All eyes were on me, but only five pairs of eyes mattered. After shaking what felt like a million hands, we made it to the front.
A grin spread across my face as they bowed, the same way they did the night before. Naked. I hated the formality of being the queen, but secretly enjoyed the role-playing in the bedroom that had quickly become a favorite.
My eyes landed on Picard lounging on the arm of my throne. He had a necklace made of bright flowers and a shirt that was the brightest blue I'd ever seen. He had gone on vacation on Earth with his former protector and must have hitched a ride back with Reve or Raphael.
He burped and then squeaked, rubbing his belly. I looked to Kage for translation. He glared at Picard. "You're embarrassing me."
Reve let go of my arm and bowed to me before joining his best friend in the crowd. I had invited his family, but with two of them being archangels and two being angels, it was too risky to be in a room full of demons.
"Freaking out yet, Raph
?" I sat down on my throne and took a deep breath. Maybe he should have been the one asking me that question.
"Everyone has been nice so far, but I don't like that man over by the bar that has all three eyes on me." Raphael put his hand on my shoulder and squeezed. "Val said he'll protect me."
Val laughed and took my hand, bringing it to his lips. "You look good enough to eat."
The promise in his words made me squeeze my thighs together. I wasn't sure how long I'd be able to stay at the party after my coronation was complete.
One thing was for sure. I was home, and I never wanted to run from it again.
