We lay in a pile of sweaty limbs and watched the night sky. A shooting star streaked bright, and John yelled, “Make a wish.”
Scorpius said his wish was for John and me to suck him off at the same time, and John grumbled that if you said your wish aloud, it wouldn’t come true.
Apparently that was false.
A few minutes later, we knelt in front of Scorpius and pleasured him as he pulled our hair roughly.
Then Orion pulled away and entered me in one swift thrust. He stood up and held me by my ass with impressive strength as I bounced on his dick.
Luka fell to his knees behind him and prepped him, then he stood up behind Orion and took him while the quiet king took me.
We lay down after and rested.
I woke up to Luka thrusting inside me while Corvus strained my lips and took my mouth. After that, more wine was passed around.
Everything was hazy.
The music made it feel like nothing was real.
I spasmed as John ate me out while the first light of dawn crested over the hills. My fingers tangled in his messy hair, and I admired how his ass was reddened from Scorpius’s rough treatment.
He pulled away and grinned up at me, dimples flashing.
I stared back, and a pang of gratitude snowballed into something bigger inside me. Thank the sun god he was my first.
I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.
John stood up, my juices glistening on his face, as he turned and sprinted buck naked down the hillside. “Last one to the river loses,” he shouted back at me.
He was ridiculous, but I wasn’t a loser, so I stood up and sprinted after him.
Laughing, I shouted, “You’re going to traumatize the ponies, cover yourself!”
“Fuck the ponies,” John yelled dramatically, then jumped off the rickety wooden dock and cannonballed into the lily-pad-covered lake.
I followed closely behind and threw a flip as I entered the refreshing water.
“Now you’re just showing off,” he said as he splashed me.
“No.” I raised my eyebrows, and the lake froze around him. “Now I’m showing off.”
“Luka, help!” He yelled dramatically, “Scorpius, save me!”
We both burst into laughter at the idea of the sadistic king saving him.
I unfroze the lake, and we spent the next hour pretending to drown to see if any of the men would save us.
Corvus stomped over eventually and dove in to save us, but at that point, we’d already pretended to die at least thirty times, so we weren’t impressed. Overprotective mates my butt.
“They’re useless,” I said to John as we lounged naked, eating jam and crackers under my favorite tree.
He nodded in agreement and licked his fingers. “Completely useless.”
I threw my arm over my eyes and lay back.
“Useless,” I whispered with a smile on my lips as I fell asleep.
I napped all day, and my dreams were full of sunshine and wine, pleasure and baritone whispers, laughter and family.
Another piece of me healed.

THE WEDDING
Zephyr （noun）： a gentle breeze.
“Stop it, you’re not supposed to see me this morning,” I hissed at Scorpius as he slipped inside the shower. Pale muscles rippling, with one fluid movement that revealed his training as an assassin, he pinned me against the wall.
“Good thing I’m blind.”
He spun me around so my front was pressed against the marble shower wall. Soapy hands trailed across me with deceptive gentleness, then there was a loud crack as he slapped my ass.
I jolted at the blow and tried to stifle my moan.
“You’re going to walk down the aisle,” he whispered into my ear, “with red cheeks.”
I squinted with confusion.
His hand cracked down harder, and I jolted. The sharp sting turned into a dull heat that melted away.
I blushed as I realized what cheeks he meant.
“Perfect,” he whispered. “You deserve a prize for being so sweet for me.” Fingers explored my slickness as he mercilessly made good on his promise with his other hand.
When I was a quivering mess, he pushed himself deep inside me.
I convulsed around him, and it sent him into a frenzy.
His pace was brutal ecstasy.
He didn’t give me time to catch my breath.
Then suddenly he pulled out and barked, “Get on your knees.”
Head floaty from multiple orgasms, I did what he said without question. Knees slammed against tile as I obeyed.
He rewarded me sweetly.
An hour later, we both stumbled out of the steamy bathroom into the bedroom. Well, I stumbled; Scorpius sauntered with male smugness.
