  I rasped, “What are you doing?”

  “You’re hurting.”

  “I am the Lord of the Underworld. I am meant to suffer.”

  “No, you’re not.”

  I snorted and turned from her. I felt the warmth from her body and she stood behind me. So close that her breasts brushed against my back.

  “I’m hurting, too.”

  This made me glance over my shoulder. There was truth in her eyes and in her words.

  “Vedah said the longer we resist, the harder it will be. Maybe it’s because I’m just a human, but I feel it.” She reached around and put her hand over my heart. “Here. Do you?”

  I did.

  “And the crazy thing is I want to give in. I want this pain to go away. But I can’t do it alone.”

  Her voice broke and I turned. She gazed up at me, tears in her eyes.

  “Please help me make the pain go away.”

  I brushed my thumb over her cheek. “You don’t know what you ask, little flower. If we do this, there’s no going back.”

  I needed her to know this.

  “The old myths were wrong. It wasn’t a fruit that caused Persephone to stay here. It was sex.” I closed my eyes, trying to remember, but the longer I was with Aubrey the less I could remember of Persephone. I exhaled. “So, yes, we can ease the pain, but you will be sealing your fate.”

  Her lips lifted in a half smile. “You think I don’t know this?”

  She reached down and untied the fabric at my waist, letting it fall to the ground. My cock was hard, and she wrapped her hand around my length.

  “I knew when I had the dream that you were really this big.” At my look, she laughed. “I only said you were compensating to get under your skin.”

  She pumped me in her small fist, applying pressure. My head tilted back, and I moaned.

  “It worked.”

  “I know.” She licked her lips. “I want to taste you.”

  “Only if I can taste you, too.”

  “Yes.”

  She led me to the bed and climbed on first. It was strange, having a woman in my chambers. But she didn’t seem to mind the dark room. I joined her and caught her lips in a kiss. She tasted like sunlight and I couldn’t get enough. Our tongues caressed each other until she moaned.

  “Lie down,” she ordered.

  I did as she said, and she climbed over me, so that her pussy was over my face. Her warm breath hit my lower stomach right before she pumped my cock a few times. I moaned. But when I looked up I found she was just as aroused at me. And I couldn’t wait to taste her.

  Holding onto her hips, I raised my head and licked her folds. She tasted like sweet nectar. I moved one of my hands and stroked her clit. She arched into my touch, coating my tongue with her arousal.

  “Oh god,” she chanted.

  She took me into her mouth and I swear the earth tilted a bit. With each stroke of my finger and tongue, she mimicked my moves. When I slid a finger into her pussy, she took me deep into her throat and hummed. We waged war on each other in the most sinful way possible. When her body shook as she came, I lapped up every last drop of her orgasm. And then she returned the favor.

  My stomach tightened, and I cried out as my seed shot down her throat in spurts. I’d never had an orgasm this intense. White lights made my vision wan and I shook, pulling her closer to me. When I could breathe again, I opened my eyes. Somehow my cock was still hard, something that had never happened before.

  Aubrey moved around so she was sitting on my stomach, facing me.

  “That was… wow.” She pushed her hair from her face. “Is it always like that?”

  “No.”

  She said, “I don’t want to sound greedy, but I want more.”

  Without waiting for me to reply, she lifted and impaled herself on my cock. We both groaned as I filled her. She began riding me so hard that her tits bounced. But it wasn’t enough. I held onto her waist and met her thrusts.

  “I need more.”

  I did too. Without missing a beat, I rolled us over so that she was under me. She pulled her knees up so that I fucked her deeper. But it wasn’t enough.

  “More,” she cried out.

  Her nails scraped down my back, drawing blood. I rubbed her clit until it was a hard nub. And it still wasn’t enough.

  “Fuck,” I cried out.

  I covered her breasts with my hands and squeezed them.

  “Suck them,” she panted.

  I latched onto her nipple and sucked until she screamed.

  But it wasn’t enough.

  “Look at me,” I demanded.

  Her eyes were wild and unfocused. She blinked, and they cleared.

  “You.” I thrust. “Are.” Another thrust. “Mine.”

  She shuddered. “Always.”

  “And I am yours.”

  Her entire body quaked beneath mine and she screamed, “Hades!”

  Her pussy convulsed around my cock, milking me until I came. My skin felt like it was on fire as I filled her with my seed. She thrashed beneath me and pulled me closer at the same time. Together, we rode out our orgasm, which seemed to go on for ages.

  Finally, our heartbeats returned to normal. She brushed my hair from my face.

  “Did I hurt you?”

  She grinned and touched a bite mark on my shoulder. “Not any more than I hurt you.”

  I opened my mouth to reply when there was a cough. Fuck. We weren’t alone.

  “Show yourself.”

  Ares stepped from the shadows, eyes dark with desire as he looked at Aubrey. I knew in that moment I wanted my brother to feel happiness. I motioned him forward.

  “Come brother. See what joys the Goddess can bring you.”

  AUBREY

  My heart pounded as Ares stepped forward. Hades smiled at me and gave me a kiss on my forehead.

  “This is how it’s meant to be.”

  My body was still tingling, but his words gave me a rush of desire. I nodded, knowing he was right. I rose on my knees and Ares pulled me into his arms, kissing me with so much intensity that I moaned.

  He said against my lips, “I should stay away, I know this, but I can’t.”

  “Why fight it? We both know this is how it’s supposed to be.”

  Even if it was too soon for them to really love me, I knew that I needed both of these men and Hermes in my life.

  “I’m glad you feel that way, my sparrow.”

  My eyes opened in surprise. Ares smiled down at me and it took my breath away.

  “I’m aching to be inside of you.”

  I nodded and began to lay down, but he tugged my hand.

  “Come.”

  I followed his lead and stood. He kissed me and then spun me around, so I faced the bed, where Hades watched me.

  Ares said, “Bend over and hold onto the bed.”

  A wave of pleasure surged through my body and I could feel my juices dripping down my legs. Ares kissed my shoulder and nudged my legs apart with his knee.

  “Ready?”

  I nodded once, and he entered me from behind. I gasped, still sensitive from Hades, but Ares showed no mercy. He thrust with such force that my knees threatened to buckle. But god – it felt so good.

  He wrapped my hair around his fist and yanked. I cried out as my body shook.

  “Oh no, my sparrow. You’re not coming yet.”

  He smacked my butt with the palm of his hand and I jumped at the sting. Sweat rolled down my back and I trembled on the edge of an orgasm.

  “Please,” I moaned.

  He leaned forward and said, “A Goddess doesn’t beg.”

  And then he nipped my earlobe. Goosebumps rose across my skin and he laughed.

  “I think she likes it rough.”

  Hades nodded and said, “It would seem so.”

  Ares reached around and tweaked my sensitive nipple before yanking my hair again. My scalp prickled. And I wanted more.

  My voice was raspy as I s
aid again, “Please.”

  Ares’ teeth scraped against the side of my neck. “What did I say?”

  I groaned and replied. “Now.”

  “What?”

  “Fuck me. Now.”

  His deep laugh made my stomach lurch in pleasure.

  “Good girl.”

  He began pumping, holding so tight onto my hips that I knew they’d be bruised. And I would welcome each one. His fingers dug into my skin and I bucked beneath him. Ares pulled my hair so hard that my head jerked back. I met Hades’ heated gaze and it was my undoing.

  I came so hard that my knees gave out. Ares continued to pound into me until he came, too. With a sigh, he pulled out and our juices splattered to the floor.

  “That is no way to treat the light of my life,” Hermes said from the door.

  I could barely lift my head to look at him. He was at the bed a moment later, picking me up. Hades followed us to the bathroom and turned the water on in the tub. When it was full, he added a sweet smelling oil.

  Hermes stepped into the water without undressing and sat down until we were both submerged to the neck. The warm water stung my sensitive skin, but then I sighed as I felt relief. Hades sat on the edge of the tub and brushed my hair from my face.

  “Are you okay?”

  I nodded.

  Hermes kissed my head and said, “Brother, I would like some time alone with my Goddess.”

  Hades glanced at me and I nodded.

  He smiled. “I will leave you two alone. Just call if you need me.”

  Hermes rubbed my arms and shoulders for a good while after Hades left.

  “How can you be okay with this?” I asked.

  “With what?”

  “With sharing me.”

  He chuckled. “We’re not sharing you.”

  I shook my head. “You are.”

  “No, we’re not. We each get to see a side of you that the other doesn’t. Would you sit in a bathtub with Ares? Probably not.”

  “But Hades would do this with me.”

  I knew this with all of my heart.

  “True. But that’s different.”

  I snorted. “How so?”

  “You bonded with him first and that’s okay.”

  “This is too much.”

  His hands moved around to my breasts and he kneaded them gently.

  “Maybe. But you like it, right?”

  I moaned and leaned into his touch. I did like it, but did that make me a slut?

  Hermes nipped my neck with his teeth. “No. Don’t ever think that.”

  I tilted my head to give him better access and said, “It’s hard not to. Growing up, my mother always stressed that women were meant to be with one man for their life.”

  “Such a mortal thing to say.”

  I replied, “Well, I am a mortal.”

  “No, you’re not. You might have been raised thinking you were one, but you were never one.”

  His hand dipped under the water and went between my legs. He touched and caressed until my stomach tingled. I spread my legs wider to give him better access. He was more than willing to oblige. When he slid a finger inside me, I moaned.

  “Like that?”

  I nodded.

  “Good. I want you to only feel good things with me. I know with them you feel pain.”

  He inserted another digit and I gasped as the sensation. But I liked it. A lot. My hips rose on their own accord until water splashed out of the tub onto the floor.

  “I want to be inside of you,” he whispered.

  I rose up and turned so I was facing him. Reaching into the water I unbuckled the material at his waist and grasped his cock, sliding slowly onto him until we were connected. We both sighed.

  “You make me feel whole,” he said. “I feel stronger because of you.”

  It was true. I felt stronger, too. I caught his lips in a kiss and began riding him. Each thrust splashed more water onto the floor. My body was sensitive from having sex with Hades and Ares, but I didn’t care. And when I came, I felt every pulse to my core.

  Hermes came, too, and cried out my name. “Aubrey! Oh, my love!”

  I kissed him. “I love you, too, Hermes.”

  The joy in his eyes made me feel warm from the inside out.

  “Truly?”

  I nodded, meaning it. He held me in his arms until the water turned cold.

  “We should get to bed.”

  I wiggled my eyebrows. “Already ready for another round?”

  His cock hardened at my words and pressed against my opening. And I realized I was ready, too.

  There was a knock on the door and Hermes groaned. I knew exactly how he felt.

  He sighed. “We should get out before they break the door down.”

  He stood, holding his hand out. I took it and stepped from the tub. I’d barely put a gown over my head when Hades came in.

  “Is everything okay?”

  His eyes searched mine and my cheeks flushed.

  “Yes.”

  “Good.” He glanced at Hermes. “Ares is waiting for you in the dining room. Go help him.”

  Hermes rolled his eyes but did as Hades ordered. When he was gone, Hades smiled down at me.

  “How do you feel?”

  This was so weird.

  He caught my chin with his hand. “Please don’t be ashamed.”

  “Hermes said the same thing, but I just can’t stop thinking that this is wrong. They’re your brothers.”

  “Does it feel wrong?”

  I shook my head.

  He said, “And we’re not brothers in the same way mortals would be related.”

  “So, it’s more like cousins?”

  “Think of it as a brotherhood or like knights. We all live to serve the same queen.”

  I grinned. “That sounds better.”

  He kissed my forehead. “Good. Now come. My brothers should be back by now.”

  Hades led me from the bathroom to his bedroom where Ares and Hermes waited with trays in their hands. I caught a whiff of meat any my stomach rumbled.

  Hades said, “We thought you would be hungry.”

  “I’m always starved after a good fucking,” Ares said.

  Hermes slapped his arm and gave me an apologetic look.

  I took a piece of meat from the tray and took a bite, moaning as the juicy tenderloin hit my taste buds. Ares’ eyes were bright as he watched me eat.

  I swallowed and said in a husky tone, “Then you must be starved, too.”

  His mouth opened, and I laughed, finally getting the best of him.

  “Let me eat, you fiend, and then we can play some more.” The words left my lips without thought.

  Hades touched the base of my back. “That’s the plan, little flower.”

  Hermes added, “Let us all eat. I have a feeling it’s going to be a long night.”

  We all laughed and settled on the bed eating different meats, fruits, and vegetables. I couldn’t get over how different things were and how right this felt. Hades caught my gaze and winked. Oh, yes. Time to play.

  HADES

  I stretched and hit something with my foot.

  “Watch it,” Ares grumbled.

  I raised my head to find my brother sleeping horizontally at the foot of my bed. His arm was thrown across Aubrey’s leg. Hermes slept on the other side of her with a smile on his face even as he slumbered. Aubrey blinked up at me, an unsure look on her face.

  “Morning.”

  It was such a human thing to say that I found myself smiling.

  “Good morning. How do you feel?”

  She stretched and winced. “A little sore. But good. You?”

  I chuckled. “I feel good.”

  That was putting it mildly. I felt like I could do anything. The power that I’d felt last night when I made love to Aubrey was still there. The thought made me freeze. Love?

  Aubrey stretched again and inhaled sharply. “Maybe sorer than I first realized.”
/>   I reached over and pulled her into my arms. She wrapped her arms around my neck like it was the most natural thing in the world.

  “You need a soaking bath.”

  She gave me a cheeky look. “My bath with Hermes ended up being naughty.”

  For some reason, hearing her say ‘naughty’ made me hard.

  She noticed and said, “And I get the feeling a bath with you will end up the same way.”

  “We’re not taking a bath in the tub or you’d be right.”

  I carried her from my room down the hallway to the pools that ran beneath the palace.

  “This is going to be cold,” I warned. “But it will help.”

  She nodded, and I stepped into the frigid water until we were submerged to our necks. Her nipples hardened and scraped against my chest, but any arousal that I’d felt vanished from the cold water.

  Her teeth chattered, and her lips had a blue hue to them. “Why is this helpful again?”

  I used one arm to swim us around letting the natural minerals of the water flow around us. Soon, they began to warm until the water was steaming. Aubrey’s eyes closed in bliss.

  “This is amazing.”

  I laughed. “You won’t be saying that in a moment.”

  The water ebbed and grew cold again. I kept moving until it warmed. Aubrey wrapped her arms around me and kissed me.

  “Thank you. I feel refreshed now.”

  I rubbed my forehead against hers. “You’re most welcome.”

  Another wave of cold surrounded us and I was glad. Otherwise I would’ve slid into her even though she wasn’t ready.

  “I want the same thing,” she whispered. “But you’re right, I should give my body a break.”

  “You heard that?”

  She nodded, and I wanted to weep.

  “Does it make you miss her?”

  I shook my head. “No. It only makes me sad that she never knew a bond like this.”

  She asked, “But which would you rather have?”

  I kissed her. “This is where I want to be.”

  She relaxed against me. “Good.”

  Her reaction surprised me. Surely she knew I cared for her?
