Chapter 21

TWENTY-ONE

Cassia

"So, we're not missing some kind of big party, are we?" I ask nervously as we're led back down the hallway to my bedroom.

Cobar gives me a look, a little smile teasing his lips. "The party can wait. There are… more pressing matters."

"Maybe I like big parties," I mutter.

Then Cobar's shoulder is brushing mine. "We'll have our own little private party." His soft laugh eases the words.

Zane is at my other side, and his hand is suddenly in mine. "Tonight will be however you want it to be. Just remember that."

The bedroom door is opened by a dead servant, and we all head inside before the door is closed once more behind us. My gaze slides from the giant bed down to my feet. I take a deep breath, reminding myself that I can handle this. I already nearly had sex with the four of them once. It'll just be the same thing, but taking things all the way this time. So why can't I seem to ignore the nervous flutters in my stomach?

"So, let's get this over with!" I say, trying to sound confident.

"That's sexy, just what a fella wants to hear," Cobar murmurs, followed by a wink.

Geez, he's right. I laugh. "Okay, yeah, not the sexiest thing I've ever said!"

"You're just overthinking it," Sulien says.

I lift a brow. "Oh, really?"

He closes the space between us, those auburn eyes of his filled with desire. "Really. None of this has even a little bit to do with thinking. Do you remember that day we saw each other again after so long apart?"

I stare, uncertain, but it's Forrest who answers. "I don't think we've heard this story."

Sulien's eyes twinkle. "I caught you mocking the fae in my room, and then you proceeded to offer to make me a bath. Do you remember that?"

My cheeks heat. "I'm not sure. That was… so long ago."

He gives a sexy smirk. "You offered to bathe me."

"She didn't!" Zane exclaims, but I can't look away from Sulien.

"I didn't mean it! You made me flustered! I wasn't thinking!"

Sulien's grinning. "So, what would you have said if I'd agreed to your offer?"

I'm so embarrassed. I want to melt into the floor. "I-I don't know."

He pulls me closer. "I do." And then he kisses me.

The kiss starts out soft and slowly grows harder. When I spread my lips to draw in a breath, his tongue sweeps inside, and heat uncurls inside of me, shooting straight to my core. I grasp onto his arm, trying to keep myself standing, but he tilts my head further and takes complete control. All thoughts melt from my mind, and I get the sense we're moving backwards until I fall back onto the bed.

Rasping in breaths, I stare up at him. "Do you really think it'll be this easy?"

He grins, reaching for his shirt. "I'll be that easy."

I watch him with complete fascination as he draws off his shirt, and then a gasp slips from my lips. The marks… they're worse than I even thought. He tries to get me to lie back down, but I'm on my feet an instant, running my hands over the scars on his chest. I take a shaky breath, then move to behind him.

Fuck. His back.

A sob catches in my throat, and I reach out and touch one of the scars, running my fingers along it. "Does it hurt?"

It takes him a second to answer. "It's not as bad as it looks."

I glance at my other men. "Are your injuries this bad?"

Zane shakes his head. "Not nearly. For some reason, the Keeper seemed to give Sulien the worst of it."

Anger rises inside of me. "I hate her. I hate that monster! I can't believe my own flesh and blood–"

"Family is who we choose," Cobar says. "She wasn't your mother. Your father, your grandmother, and us, we're your family. Just like our fathers and mothers aren't our family either."

For some reason, it's hard to catch my breath. I sit back down on the edge of the bed, feeling lost .

Sulien kneels down in front of me and takes my hands. "It's okay, Cassia. We're okay, and you're okay."

No, we're not. "If I'd just figured all of this out sooner. If I'd just said yes–"

"If I'd just told everyone the truth," he offers, an apology in his eyes.

No, this isn't what I want. I feel bad, I don't want to make Sulien feel bad. So much in our past is surrounded by complications and uncertainty. I just want things to be focused on the here and now.

I straighten my spine, trying to let go of my guilt, even though it doesn't entirely work. "You're right. You're right. We already covered this. We know we suck at communication, and we're going to work on it, so our kids have a happy family."

"And we're going to have so many kids," Forrest says with a grin. "But my son will be the largest."

"Or daughter," I tell him with a look of annoyance.

His expression in return is horrified. "If we have a daughter, she sure as hell better look like you!"

Cobar laughs. "Can you imagine a female version of Forrest?"

Everyone laughs, and my heart eases.

Sulien rises from his knees and kisses me again, long and hard. "We need to get you focusing on the present, not the past."

I sigh and decide to be honest. "I have no idea how I'm going to do that."

He lifts a brow. "I do."

I feel my nipples harden at the low timber of his voice. Hell, if he'd looked at me like that the day I offered to bathe him, we'd have skipped a lot of steps because I would've been forced to nail him right then .

He leans in closer and his scent washes over me, the scent of herbs, probably from his healing bath, but I find I like it now. He cups my face, his fingers moving restlessly against my skin until his thumb lingers on my lips. I lick my lips, and his gaze jumps to my mouth. Heat moves between us until the desire to kiss him is palpable. I feel like I'm losing my mind, like there's nothing I've ever wanted more than his kiss.

The muscles in his jaw twitch. He closes his eyes and swallows, and I swear he's counting in his head. But why? Why is he putting this off?

Reaching forward, I stroke his chest slowly, and his intense eyes open and fall on me. He leans forward and kisses me, pressing me back against the bed as he does so, until he's on top of me. And now, it's clear how much he's been enjoying what we've been doing. Despite his injuries, he's hard as rock, and I'm not at all minding the feeling of him pressing between my thighs.

It's strange, kissing him, being lost in his touch. His mouth is hard and possessive, he seems to know exactly what to do to turn me on. To make my head spin. He kisses me like it's the last time he'll ever kiss a woman, and he wants to make it last forever.

My nipples harden further. The thin fabric of the gown is not nearly enough fabric to separate us, or perhaps too much, I don't know any longer. All I know is that his hot, hard body against me feels better than any of my dreams.

He lifts himself, creating space between us, then pushes up the fabric of my dress. I gasp against his lips, feeling the cool air against my inner thighs. And then he breaks our kiss.

The bed shifts, and I blink my eyes open, head spinning. Cobar is lying on one side of me. Zane on the other. And in front of me, Forrest is slowly undressing. I'm not sure exactly what's going to happen, but my gaze is locked on the big man with auburn hair as his shirt drops onto the ground, and then he starts working the buttons on his pants.

When that fabric hits the ground, I'm left staring. Staring at a gigantic, erect man who seems to know just how impressive his cock is. Grinning, he reaches down and begins to stroke himself while staring at us. I'm about to react, I don't know how, when Sulien slides down my body.

I only have a second to realize what's about to happen when his lips are pressing into me. My legs jerk, and he grabs them, wrapping them around his shoulders as he presses deeper, working his way into my sensitive inner folds. My head goes back. I reach down and grasp his hair.

But they're not done. These wicked men want more.

Zane finds my lips next. His cold mouth is on mine, awakening my nerves in an entirely different way. His tongue slips into my mouth, and he seems to work in unison with Sulien, who licks my core slowly. My body jerks and shifts, aware of every flick of their tongues and every touch of their bodies.

I feel someone start to undo the buttons between my breasts. Their hand is warm against my skin, but their progress is slow. Cobar suddenly curses, and then he grasps the fabric of my dress and tears it open.

Hands find my breasts. I arch into them, then jerk again as Sulien sucks my most sensitive nerves. It's all… too much. So much, but so good at the same time.

Cobar's lips find my breast, and I gasp against Frost's lips. I feel the bastard grin, and then he slides down, and his cold lips are on my other breast. My hands, somehow thrown at my side now, reach for their heads and hold them in place as they lavish every inch of me.

Time stands still as my body heats up. It's just like before. Only better.

Then Sulien slides a finger into my core, and I barely manage to choke in a breath. I start to buck against his mouth and finger, feeling myself building to something amazing. Far beyond any orgasm I've had in life. It's almost frightening.

Almost.

Then I feel it. That I'm right at the edge.

And they stop.

"I'm going to come," I groan, feeling frustrated. My gaze finds Forrest, and he steals my breath. His hand is firmly wrapped around his shaft, and precum beads his tip. "Come in me," I whisper.

They tense. I know they heard me.

"Are you sure?" Forrest asks, his words ragged.

I nod. "Come in me."

Sulien gently sets my legs down as Cobar and Zane pull back. Sulien removes the remainder of his clothes, and he stands hard and erect before me. Cobar and Zane do the same, moving off of the bed and undressing until I'm very thankful for the sea of impressive cock before me.

Only, I'm not the only one staring. They're gazes are dark and aroused. Just the way you want a man to look at you naked. Only there's four of them.

Then Sulien growls and lays on top of me, rolling us both so I'm on top. Before I can make a sound, he reaches for my breasts and grabs them roughly, using his thumbs to pluck them while I shift around, wet and horny on top of him. Flashes of pleasure come from my breasts and pool between my thighs.

I'm aroused. But irritated. I wish he'd pull me lower, so I could have his big cock at my core, but he seems to be in the business of torturing me because every time I try to slide lower, he keeps me in place.

When a desperate whimper slips from my lips, his hands leave my breasts and he grabs my hips, moving me down further until he's sliding himself through my juices. It's incredible. Amazing. He's warm, and hard, and I'm throbbing at just the feel of him in my folds.

I just need him inside of me.

My vision waivers, and I grip his shoulders harder. "I'm seriously going to explode."

"Not yet, you're not," he says softly.

Cobar and Frost join us, lying at our sides, and I wonder where Forrest has gone. He doesn't seem like the type who would let this all happen without getting in on the action, but Sulien refocuses me by continuing his torturous sliding, that big cock of his slipping through my folds, but only teasing me.

I wiggle and shift on top of him, glancing at Zane and Cobar, who seem to be enjoying the show, cocks in hand. They're both stroking and staring intently.

Finally, I can't take it any longer. "Seriously, Sulien, stick a cock in me or give someone else a turn."

His gaze is filled with amusement.

Fuck him! Was he seriously waiting for me to beg for it?

But he simply says, "Your wish is my command."

I'm about to curse him out when I feel the head of his cock at my opening. Stiffening, I try to take normal breaths, but he begins to ease inside, and I can't stop myself from panting like I'd just run a mile. He's big. As big as I remember in my hand, only this time inside of me, and exactly what I want.

The fit is tight. If I wasn't so wet, it wouldn't work, but I am. I'm fucking soaking. Either way, it's amazing. I'm definitely going to become an addict. I'm going to want dick in the morning, dick in the evening, and dick at night.

It takes forever for him to reach his hilt, but when he does, I'm breathing hard. I feel the mattress shift behind me, and there's suddenly a hand at my back. Confused, I look behind me to see Forrest kneeling behind me, dick in hand. It takes me a long minute to realize what he's planning.

Oh, fuck, this will be good…

He starts working behind me. Sliding his cock into my fluids, probably against Sulien's cock, which would be funny any other time. Didn't they hate each other not that long ago and now they're sliding their dongs against each other? But my amusement doesn't last when he comes back to my ass and begins to ease his tip into me from behind.

I tense. Fuck. That's too big.

My expectation is that his hard dick will end up splitting my ass, but instead, I gasp when he pulls out and puts a finger inside of me. He works it slowly, awakening my nerves, before adding another finger to the first. I can hardly breath, hardly move, as the men continue to touch me slowly, and Forrest keeps adding fingers to my ass.

Pressure builds inside of me, a delicious pressure that whispers of an orgasm that will change my world forever. I start to shift my hips, and Forrest swears behind me before removing his fingers.

"No, I'm going to be inside of you when you do that," he says, his voice husky with need. Then that hard tip of his cock is back, and this time I know he's going to give it to me.

A thrill of pleasure rolls through me as he begins to gently push into me, and I realize his fingers were a poor substitute for the sheer size of the man trying to fit inside me now. Can I take him? Can I really handle this?

I lean up a little. As much as I can. I look at Zane with hesitation over the tight fit, but he smiles, strokes the side of my face, and then kisses me. And I'm lost. Lost in his kiss. In the chill. In the pressure.

Hands begin to stroke my breasts, stroke my nipples, and I jerk as my nerves buzz in excitement. It's so good that it takes me a minute before I realize that big cock has slowly gone deeper. Deeper and deeper.

I'm about to say something, I don't know what, when the nerves in my ass seem to awaken. My mouth forms an O even while we continue kissing, and I start to work my hips back and forth. Taking Sulien in and out at the same time I'm taking Forrest deeper.

Oh, fuck… that feels, amazing.

My eyes flash open, and I glance from Cobar to Zane, breathless as I ask, "If I can fit both of them… do you think I can suck both of you?"

"Fucking hell," Cobar mutters. "Yeah. Whatever you want."

Zane says nothing, just shifts on the bed, kneeling by my face. So I take him first. And he tastes good. Wet and hard all at once.

Due to his size, it takes effort to suck him deeper, so deep that for a minute I'm choking around his hard length. But the groan I draw from him makes it all worth it. Then I pull him out and turn to Cobar, doing the same, working him so hard that the fae grasps my head and pushes himself deeper.

Which is strangely hot.

The distraction is good, definitely needed, because by the time both men are fully inside my ass and pussy, I think I would have come. Instead, they begin to thrust together, working my body, as I work Zane and Cobar in my mouth. They awaken every nerve in my body in a way that makes me feel like I've been struck by lightning.

In no time at all, we've found a rhythm. A rhythm that brings incredible pleasure.

At one point, I grasp Zane and Cobar and take them at the same time, managing to fit their two massive cocks in my mouth at the same time. It's incredible to have all four of my men inside of me. So good that I feel like every nerve in my body is screaming in pleasure.

Knowing they're enjoying it, feeling my body respond, it's all I need. Before I know it, that building pressure grows inside of me until I explode.

My orgasm is like nothing on this earth. It's the stars shattering. It's the earth quaking. It's my world changing forever. The big cocks in my ass and pussy are working together, rubbing my most sensitive nerves. Two incredible men are in my mouth, filling it, shaking with their own desire.

I have them. All four men. They're mine. And they know how to make me feel damn good.

An orgasm hits again, and heat rushes to my core. I'm wet, soaking them as I ride them harder and harder. Cobar comes in my mouth and then Zane finishes, and both groan my name. I keep going, moaning against the cocks in my mouth as I work the cocks in my body.

I can't stop. It feels too good. My vision fades, and I feel tears rolling down my face. My body squeezes and squeezes them until the men inside of me are coming too. And then, at last, I collapse, filled with their warm cum, happy and satisfied.

Zane and Cobar lay at my sides, but Forrest and Sulien stay inside me. I don't know what's happening until Forrest begins to work himself in my ass again, and Sulien goes hard.

"Again?" I whisper in shock, goosebumps rising on my flesh.

"As much as you want," Sulien murmurs, and the low pitch of his voice makes me shiver in anticipation.

Forrest's big hands grasp my breasts, and he pulls me back until I'm sitting up. The angle changes the way their dicks feel inside me, and then I'm crying out their names as they take me harder and harder. Working together to leave all my nerves screaming in pleasure.

It's like I can't breathe. Can't see. Can only feel their cocks working together, only my body separating them, which feels all kinds of right. And then they're pushing me over the edge again. My next orgasm hits with all the force of a wall falling on top of me, and I'm panting as I grind myself on their hard dicks.

It's not long after that they come again, and I love it. I love the feel of them hard and wet inside of me. But Forrest won't let me collapse. He continues to play with my breasts as he sucks on my neck. "You're mine. Ours. No one else's." And he sounds desperate.

Like he has anything to worry about.

Finally, Forrest releases me and lies down on the bed beside Cobar, gasping in breaths. Sulien stays inside of me, but Zane pulls the blankets over us .

"That was amazing," I tell them, and I mean it. I'm more than satisfied.

Being queen, apparently, means having four husbands who take care of you, and your family. Being queen means having the power to make changes in our world that means a better life for all of humanity. And being queen means getting as many world-rocking orgasms as I want.

Had I been afraid of this? I'm seriously an idiot.

"So, you think you can handle the four of us as husbands?" Zane asks.

I snuggle against Sulien's chest happily. "Absolutely."

"Good," Sulien says, "Now, rest. In a few minutes, we'll go again."

My eyes pop open. "In a few minutes ? How many times do you plan to do it tonight?"

Sulien shrugs.

Cobar strokes my back. "Don't worry, not more than you can handle. Maybe four or five?"

" Four or five ? I'll be pregnant by morning!"

Forrest slaps my ass. "Don't threaten me with a good time."

That night, true to their words, they fucked me like we were animals in heat. And much to my surprise, I liked every second of it. Even when Cobar and Zane decided they could both fit in my pussy at the same time.

Which now might be my new favorite thing.
