Spellbound Lust

Magic Revealed

I woke up in a tangle of arms and legs. The sky had fallen dark while we slept. Jason was cuddled to my chest with Cassius at my back. Gabriel was stretched out beside Jason, which meant Alric must be the one with his arm slung over Cassius and resting on my hip. My forehead itched, which told me my Witch tattoos had come in at some point during or after we all bonded.

I could feel the bond snapped tightly in place to each one of these men, tethering me to them. I could feel peace coming through each one.

Finally my bladder made it's self known and I had to move. I tried to squirm my way out from the cage of arms and legs, gently lifting and moving each one to the side until I finally struggled off the bottom of the bed.

I hurried to the bathroom and did my business, stopped to look in the mirror. Yep my witch tattoos were there, a sideways crescent moon with the tips pointing up graced my forehead, on each side a twining ribbon of flames and flowers appeared in blue, with a line of water droplets underneath creating a crown. The moon seemed to be cupping a small bird. I would need more time to think on what this meant.

I hopped into the shower to clean myself up a bit. Just as I lathered up my hair I felt a cool breeze and felt arms come up around my waist. Through the bond I didn't have to guess to know it was Cassius. My little snow leopard had come in to help me.

"Please, let me wash you." he murmured into my ear. Sighing happily I let him take over. He massaged the soap into my scalp and his fingers felt like heaven. Then he grabbed a fresh loofah from the rack outside and soaped it up too. He gently scrubbed my shoulders, and back before moving to massage my ass. He knelt behind me and went even further until he'd covered the back of my thighs and calves.

"Please turn around" he asked simply and I complied. He stood and started washing my arms and chest, grazing over my n*****s. I sighed in pleasure. He continued down my stomach until he came to my mound. He gently washed between my legs, pausing slightly to kiss my knee before washing my legs and feet. Once I was all soapy he grabbed the shower wand and rinsed me off. He kissed me gently before I got out.

Gabriel was standing next to the shower with a fluffy towel in his hands. "Fresh from the dryer Princess." He said, giving me a kiss as he wrapped it around me "Cass said you were going to shower so I got it for you" I was touched by his thoughtfulness. "Thank you so much Gabriel." I leaned into him after I'd dried off and kissed his shoulder.

"We should probably get something to eat before the next wave hits." He murmured at me. My stomach growled in agreement. He chuckled and took my hand to walk me to the kitchen. Neither of us bothered with clothes. Both shifters and witches were comfortable with casual nudity.

I found some eggs, cheese, bacon and sausage in the refrigerator and I started up the grill top to get things started. I grabbed some bread from the cupboard and got to work assembling a pile of breakfast sandwiches for everyone. Gabriel ducked out to get cleaned up in one of the other bathrooms and once breakfast was fully made all four men had joined me in the kitchen as I set out everything. "I'm not much of a cook but I can make a mean breakfast sandwich" I said.

"These look delicious! I love to cook by the way" Piped up Jason. This little nugget of information did not surprise me. I knew he was raised by his mother after both of her mates died in the last war and she was a well known hearth witch. This meant her magic was based on making people feel at home. She was well known in the community for putting on the best holiday banquets and she had taught each of her children how to cook as well. "You come by that naturally I hear, Your mother makes some of the best foods." I told him. He beamed with pride.

"Yes, well she is definitely going to be happy about our union. She speaks highly of your mother and I know she was hoping we would bond" He chattered on. "If my mother were around she would be pleased with our mating as well" Alric stated suddenly. He had lost both his parents in the same war. I smiled at the sentiment.

Cassius added "I can't wait to announce our bond to the pride! My dads are going to be so happy for me! Fair warning though, my sister can come off as a bit hostile, she's my twin and an Alpha in her own right. She has always been very protective of me, being an omega." I nodded seriously.

we all turned to Gabriel, he cleared his throat and went on. "As you know my mother and one of my fathers passed away the same time Alric's did, in the same fight as a matter of fact. They were quite close. I was twelve at the time and my other siblings needed our other father more. The triplets were only four. I tried to help out where I could but as the next Alpha King I had to focus on my studies a lot. I know he's proud of me, and he will be happy for me. He's been spending a lot of time with Agatha, who lost her single mate last spring. They are hoping to petition for a second chance mating during the equinox so he may be a bit busy with that."

I did the math in my head "Aren't the triplets 19 now?" I asked.

"Yep," he said "they all got their wolves last year and are naturals at communicating with them. Who'd have thought we'd have triplet white wolves?" He laughed.

White wolves were known to bring good fortune to a pack. Having three in one year was cause for celebration.

"Well as you all know, my mother is Crone, the head Witch in the North East of the United states." I stated "I am her only child and as such she was hoping for a powerful union. She only had one union partner, my father is The Phoenix. When I showed no signs of ashing on my 16th birthday my mother took me to the elders, who said I was going to be a powerful witch and would follow in her footsteps one day. As a female, my power wasn't to come in until we all bonded on my 25th birthday." I touched my new tattoo on my forehead. All the men's eyes scrutinized it.

"I seem to have aspects of each element, plus moon magic." I sighed "That means that yes I am powerful, but it's going to be a lot to learn"

Jason touched the little silver feather, wrapped around the music note that graced his temple. "I can help you with air magic, but we are going to need to speak to the elders about the rest." He said, awe apparent in his tone. "Moon magic hasn't been seen in over a century. The legend says anyone with moon magic can have control over shifters, forcing them to shift between forms any time you wish. Supposedly, you will be able to create and shape shadows, or dispel them all together. Others say you will be able to control the tides. I don't know for sure but that is a lot of power to place on one person. The gods must have chosen you for a reason."

Alric grunted "I don't quite relish someone forcing me to change forms, but that may be why you have two royal alphas, to help balance your powers, and an omega to help you focus your emotions" He glanced at Cassius. Who ducked his head with a blush. He was adorable. I reached over and patted his cheek, as Jason slung an arm around his shoulder
