Ever Cynical

Chapter 62🌶️- The Second Luna

Anais POV

My body was in this weird state. Sore and yet so thoroughly sated. Kier and Erik were still totally out, but Jothan was kneeling between my legs, licking me clean of Nexus' mess. It was dirty and yet so f*****g hot, that suddenly my core roared to life for him. I held my arms out, encouraging him. Grinning, he thrust aggressively inside my entrance, pulling me up his knees to his lap. He buried his face in my neck, his canines grazing me as he thrust wildly, my still soft cervix allowing his long c**k to pump in and out of it. Within minutes he grunted deeply as he released into me and I came hard, my body trembling. I could feel each hot spurt and found myself tossed into a second orgasm. Breathing hard, he kissed me deeply and hungrily.

Suddenly, I felt Kier's sensual caress on my ass as Erik pulled Jothan's mouth to his.

"Stay just like that." Kier growled, a purr rolling out of him. He swiped some of Jothan's mess up to my tight rosette, slipping a finger in. "s**t, Ana, you're ready aren't you?" He whispered. I nodded, scooting my bum out just a little for him. He kneeled between where Jothan had me up on his thighs and slipped into my ass. Jothan groaned into Erik's mouth before they both turned to me, three sets of lips and hands determined to bring me pleasure.

"Please." I begged. "I want you all. Erik, I need you in my p***y with Jothan. I need it so bad." Erik grinned and kissed my cheek, moving one of Kier's knees between his legs and my leg over his thigh so that my Fae and Bear were now in my front while Kier ruled my backside. Erik pushed in slowly with Jothan, moving in tandem until they were bottomed out.

"Holy shit." Erik said, breathing hard. "Babes, this is way too good." Of course, Kieran f*****g giggled, making me gush. He kissed my back.

"Finally, we can be out of rut and heat with this, mo shíorghrá. Hopefully long enough to get our s**t together, because we have a lot to-"

"Shut the f**k up Kieran and plow me like you mean it." I ground out, so horny I thought I was going to explode on the spot. "I need you all fronting." I told them at Claire's urging. "Now f**k your queen properly!" As I said this, they all began pumping their hips hard and fast, and in tandem. The orgasm that followed was explosive and we all growled wildly as we peaked together. Fully sated, delightfully messy, and totally happy, I glanced at the three of them. "Shower time." I announced. "And then we need food. My babies are starving."

I might have allowed them to get me dirty again in the shower, but hey, it was fun. I stopped them before we went down for lunch, looking to Kier. He nodded, then gestured to the bed. Erik looked confused, but moved closer.

"I thought we were going to eat though? I admit I'm f*****g starving." He said dolefully with a slight pout. I patted his shoulder. Too bad I'm no good at warm and fuzzy. My mates are the ones that are good with that s**t. Among them, I'm certainly the most jaded. Even Nexus had hope, something I'm still struggling to be okay having at all. Before meeting Kieran, let's face it, I really had nothing of intrinsic value but my virtue.

I just know that as much as you might enjoy something, it's doubly painful when you lose it. I don't ever want to lose my mates.

"Clothes stay on this time. We need to add our mate to the pack. That way I can send in my update to the council." I said sweetly. Erik's pout melted away as he wrapped an arm around Jothan affectionately. He was so touchy-feely, but I think we all appreciated it. He just seemed to know when we needed reassurance. More than just the mate-bond, it was like true empathy.

"Ohh, right. What position are we giving him? We've got two alphas." Erik mused, then his eyes lit up. "I was going to be second Luna, so now we can give that to Jothan." He was so excited, it was contagious. We all grinned at him. Erik was like a giant marshmallow. Well, not his toned and sexy body, no, that was firm in all the right places. It was his gentle heart that was like a marshmallow, fluffy and soft. Definitely the man you wanted if you needed a hug.

"Kier?" I asked. In the end, the rank was up to him, whether I was queen or not. He would always be my king.

"Yeah, Luna probably is best though I feel kinda bad asking a guy to take it on when we have two alphas. But honestly, it's the best way to help Anais." Kier said. Jothan nodded, strangely fine with it. I really thought the proud Fae prince would balk at being second Luna in a wolf pack. I wondered how his family felt about all of this. Was Lamorna happy for him or did she wish he'd had a Fae mate? I'm sure they missed him. As quiet as he seemed to be so far, his aura was like a warm blanket. All three of them made me feel incredibly safe.

Part of me thought this was a slightly dangerous feeling to have.

"If it means I get to spend time helping my queen, I will do it." He announced.

I pulled him forward and out came my moon blades. While Jothan was aware of them, his eyes widened at the sight of them. Erik kissed his forehead gently, smiling at the rest of us. Kieran held his hand out as well, and the cuts and vows were made. We all buckled under the weight of the sudden influx of power, which was why we'd stood near the bed. We were all forced onto it, breathing hard. Okay wow, now I get it. It felt like we were pretty complete before, but this... this was like a revelation. With our emotions pouring through each other, I could tell we all felt the same. We could feel the pack's joy through the link, yet another of our power-ups, if you will, becoming theirs as well.

Tonight, my dragon Xinglong said, I will shift and they will all have me, she said in her voice that was, to quote Short Skirt, Long Jacket, "dark like tinted glass." Whether good or not, they all heard as their primal sides fronted and their eyes whipped to mine. I suddenly realized that I was mated to three men that were predators, underneath it all. Kieran was the first to grin. Jothan's hand crept to my hip, while Erik kissed my forehead lovingly. I cleared my throat.

"I need food, mon amours." I said as I got up, deciding to just... let the dragon be for now. They all pouted a bit, clearly turned on by my dragon's promise, but I truly needed to replenish or I was going to pass out. Kier stood next to me, as if he knew I was a bit unsteady. He looped my arm through his and gestured to the other two to follow as we went to the door. When I faltered in the hallway, Jothan and Erik put a hand on my waist in concern. "I'm fine I just need to eat." I insisted. I should have known my wolf alpha wasn't having any of it.

Suddenly I was up in Kieran's arms, bridal style.

"No nonsense, my queen. Let us take care of you, hmm?" He said, tenderly kissing my nose. Pack members greeted us, excited though a little concerned I was being carried. "She's just tired and hungry." He would reassure them. They were a little more shy with Jothan than they were with Erik, probably because they had more interactions with bears than fae, but Jothan smiled kindly and they instantly warmed up to him. Have I mentioned that I love my pack members? It bears repeating. They are just awesome.

Erik and Keir tensed up as we entered the dining room. Jothan felt their emotion and tilted his head, while I rolled my eyes as Ekezeic and Mirgadok's eyes landed on me in Kier's arms. Ezkezeic shot to his feet in concern, and Erik stepped forward to hold a hand up. His eyes narrowed on Anais' belly, and some tension went out of him. I guess he thought they were going to put more babies in there. Then his eyes landed on the Fae standing behind us and his brow shot up. Kier sighed, gesturing for Ekezeic to have a seat. The Basilisk King took a seat, if reluctantly.

Keir stood with me still in his arms, Erik at his left and Jothan at his right, clearing his throat. The entire pack was gathered and all eyes turned to us. My face flushed. I was not used to being seen as well, weak. And I felt weak being carried, even if nobody here even thought it for a moment. They were all far too kind to have malicious thoughts. The worst I'd experienced was when Cressida had basically called me useless, and that wasn't even that bad, given the context.

"I have two announcements. The first, is to announce our Second Luna and fourth mate, Jothan Farrier, Fae Prince and Elemental Host." Everyone clapped and cheered, even my adopted mom and dad, though I could tell Ekezeic had more to say in private. "Secondly, our First Luna, Anais, is pregnant with our pack heirs... Eight of them." Shocked yet pleased gasps echoed throughout the room. "There is one more thing you all should know. Anais is the True Luna Queen, daughter of our last king and queen and their third mate. A dragon-Immortal wolf hybrid. Like their mother, our pups will carry the genes of all their mother's mates. They will be Quintbrids." More gasps, followed by cheers, erupted. Goddess, I love these wolves. "Additionally, our Delta female, Helga, is also pregnant." More applause as Helga blushed, stood, and briefly bowed.

Guess he just laid it all out there, all at once. No point in hiding things, I supposed, but after keeping... well, everything... to myself for the last nine hundred plus years, I was adjusting to the idea that I was now a public figure. I had duties and obligations, and I could not just hide when things got tough. I would have to face my enemies head-on and hope that nobody got hurt, because it would just kill me if anyone was hurt on my behalf.

I knew that everyone here knew what this mateship, these babies, and their status meant.

Danger.
