  His eyes met mine and he nodded, slowly increasing his pace while he began to suck and lick on my right breast.

  "Hmm, so good." His words were a moan and his hands held my hips secure as he thrusts grew faster. Our exhales were fast and uneven while our moans grew louder. I knew I was close, but this wave of pleasure was at least twice as powerful as what a vibrator or my fingers could do. I trembled as my body began to tense.

  "Logan. So close. More, please more. Fuck me harder!" I cried out, needing to reach that level of ecstasy and revel in every moment of it.

  "Yes, Jewel! I want you to cum with me baby, so damn close," Logan growled and it took five more deep thrusts to make me scream. My hot, slick pussy clenched around his length and I cried out his name; my back arched as I came hard.

  "Fuck. Jewel!" Logan screamed and his cum shot into my pussy, somewhat soothing the ache as shocks of pleasure continued to course through me.

  My body felt weak and my head was spinning as I relaxed into the sheets and Logan fell on top of me, having to use his hands to help him support his weight so he didn’t crush me as we both panted heavily.

  Neither of us moved, trying to catch our breath as we waited to come back down from our high. That was fucking amazing.

  "We need to shower, Precious," Logan whispered, kissing my cheek.

  "The last time I checked, your cock was still deep inside me and I don't even want to think about how hard moving is going to be."

  He chuckled, the sound deep and heartwarming. "Good point. Hold on." He slowly slid out and I flinched at the pain when I tried to move my legs.

  "Please tell me this gets better and isn't so...uh...you know," I mumbled, blushing.

  "No, it won't look like a horror movie on the bed when we have sex and it will be a lot less painful in the future. Now, do you want me to carry you, my precious Jewel?" He grinned.

  "Since you suggested it and I can't really move anyway, yes please," I replied and he shook his head in amusement, lifting me off the bed.

  "Do we have to call the maid service or something? What if she thinks we killed someone?"

  Logan laughed. "I think the sex was so good you forgot we can use magic."

  I blushed, slapping his chest.

  "Ow!" He gave me a pout.

  "You should have reminded me!'

  "I didn't think you'd forget you can use magic. Don't get so flustered," he teased.

  "Can't I use magic to take the pain away?" I whined and he grinned.

  "I know of a way, but first, shower. Then a nice soak in the Jacuzzi with bubbles, wine, and candles,” he whispered.

  "That sounds nice," I hummed.

  He grinned then froze, looking like he just remembered something.

  "Hm. I kinda just realized we didn't use a condom,” he said more to himself than me.

  "If I got pregnant, what would you do?"

  "I'd happily father our child and force Nixon to change his or her diapers." He grinned proudly.

  I laughed. "He'd kill you if you said that and I think the father of the child should take on the responsibilities of diaper changing."

  We shared a look and he kissed me. I grinned against his lips, pulling back to whisper. "Don't worry, I take birth control. We should be fine, but thank you for answering truthfully. It means a lot."

  I tightened my arms around his neck, resting my head into the crook of his neck to give him a tight hug.

  "No, Jewel. Thank you for being the amazing woman you are. No matter what the future holds for us and the others, I'll always take care of you. Always,” he reassured me.

  We stayed quiet for the moment as he rocked me slowly and I kissed his neck softly. Logan had given me the best first experience and I knew no matter what the future would hold, he'd always be by my side, whether I was a guy or girl.

  "Hmm." The sound caught my attention.

  "What?" I asked.

  "This may sound totally silly but I was thinking if mine and Braxton's sperm raced, who would win?" Logan asked.

  I laughed. "Is this gonna involve measuring lengths, because I think you guys had that argument already?"

  "No. Length doesn't matter in this war. He may get a head start with the few extra inches but I think I have a fair shot,” he stressed and I laughed even harder.

  "Is this what men think about after sex?"

  "Uh. I don't know. It was just a thought. Like what about if we all did a race?" Logan proposed and I couldn't hold in my burst of laughter.

  "So all five of you are going to bang me, one after another and see whose sperm makes the journey to impregnate me. I can't breathe," I hollered with tears in my eyes.

  "You know, it sounded smarter in my head but now it just sounds weird," Logan confessed, joining me in my laughing fit.

  "Let's just go shower and have a romantic bubble bath while you figure who would win this apparent war,"

  "I'd be victorious in the end...but Brax, Nixon, and Maximus are fair competitors," Logan pointed out as he nodded his head in thought, giving it serious consideration.

  "Prince Logan, I believe you forgot about Kage. I think he's the real threat," I teased as Logan headed to the washroom.

  "Damn, you're right. He has a big cock too even though he looks so innocent. I need to think of a way to cheat." He spoke with such seriousness I burst out laughing again.

  "Stop. This hurts more than you know," I begged, clutching my sides.

  "I'll figure this out. There has to be a formula for this," Logan determined.

  I shook my head. "Good luck."

  He smiled. "I love you."

  "I love you more," I replied and we kissed one more time before he walked into the washroom, with me in his arms and closed the door behind him.

  "Brother?"

  The same dream which always led to my brother's slow death appeared, but I realized this time it was different; instead of Gabriel appearing at the end of the hall, he stood next to me. He had one of those sad smiles on his face and he was looking down the hall.

  I followed his gaze, unsure why Brother was so focused on the end of the hall. A person appeared but the shadows in the hall hid his face from me.

  "Jewel. You love me right?" At his question, I turned to look at him.

  "Of course I do. I'll always love you," I reminded him, wishing he would realize that even after all these years, I still missed his loving hugs and yearned for him to be able to see how I turned out.

  He smiled, moving to face me. I looked back to the person at the end of the hall who began his slow approach towards the ledge. I still couldn't see the stranger’s face and I realized I wouldn't be able to till he got to where Brother and I stood.

  Arms wrapped around me, pulling me into a hug and I blinked back tears; Gabriel's warm embrace felt real. I slowly raised my arms, placing my hands on his back and squeezed him tightly, hoping this wasn't the last time I saw him.

  Even though these nightmares brought tears and screams when I awoke, at least I got to see Gabriel for a short time. I watched, time and again, his various facial expressions, reminding me both of my adoration for my dear brother who showed me the good in the world but also how cruel reality was.

  He pulled away, tears in his eyes. "I love you, my sweet sister. Your heart is so pure and never be afraid to love. Love can break through every obstacle, even when the situation seems hopeless. "

  "Are you leaving? Will I ever see you again? Don't go." I clung tight to his arms.

  He chuckled, the rich sound set off the waterworks as tears began to roll down my cheeks. "I'm always with you, Jewel. I've watched over you and will protect you until you're ready to let me go."

  "But...are you happy?" I asked, wondering if I was holding him back from moving on.

  "I'm happy watching my sister fall in love,” he replied, lifting his hands to wipe the tears from my flushed cheeks.

  "But it's selfish of me to cling to this. To watch you die over and over again. I know it is...yet it's so hard. So diff
icult to let go." I cried.

  He nodded. "I know. It is hard, but in time you will be able to. Just continue to love," he whispered, looking back down the hall.

  I glanced to my right, still unable to see the person's face but in a few seconds he'd walk onto the balcony, revealing his identity to us.

  "Jewel?"

  "Yes, Gabriel?" I turned back to him.

  "End the cycle,” he begged and I saw the same flicker of fear I had seen the day he left for school. "Don't let them take your love away."

  I was confused by his words as I stared into his gold eyes. Take my love away? Is he talking about Logan? Or the others?

  Deep in thought, I didn't even realize the person had passed us and was already at the edge. My eyes landed on his familiar frame and widened as my mouth dropped. He turned around, his fearful eyes full of tears as he stared at my wide ones.

  "I'm sorry, Jewel. It was all to save you."

  I screamed. My hand shot out to save him, to use some type of magic to stop him as his body began to lean back, but nothing worked and his body went over the edge. I raced to where he once was, my breathing uneven and my heart frantic.

  I tried to use my magic, fighting to save him but I watched his body become one with the ground, blood everywhere and an ear-piercing screen left my mouth.

  "Fuck, Jewel! Wake up!"

  I jolted forward as my eyes flashed open. I gasped for air and my eyes were scanning the room while my body trembled in sheer panic. Arms held me and I heard approaching footsteps followed by the door openings.

  "Shit. Is Jewel okay?!" I heard Braxton's voice. Someone pulled me into their arms, and after I took a deep inhale, I knew it was Logan.

  "She had a nightmare. Jewel, just breathe,” he encouraged. I began to whimper into his chest as tears rolled down my cheeks.

  "That's the fifth one this week," Maximus' deep voice announced.

  "You think something's triggering it?" That question came from Kage.

  "I don't know," Brax replied.

  "Logan, we have to ask her what she keeps seeing? This is out of the ordinary. Maybe it was her brother; she mumbles his name whenever she dreams about him. She hasn't this whole week," Nixon pointed out.

  Logan stroked my hair and I began to relax, wishing I could go back to sleep. The darkness clung to my mind and I longed to accept its invitation, anything to rid the haunting scene from my memory.

  "Jewel, you need to tell me who died in your dream."

  "No. I want to sleep," I mumbled. The room was silent and I thought I'd finally get to sleep but I felt a hand gently rest on my arm.

  "Jewel. Is it the same dream with your brother?" Nixon asked; his voice was firm and drew my attention.

  "Yes," I mumbled.

  "Does he die?" Nixon pressed.

  "...No," I replied.

  "Who dies, Jewel?" Nixon whispered and I fought the darkness that was waiting to take me away. I didn't want to reveal anything, wanting to just fade into the darkness, but my instincts told me Nixon wouldn't let me and the longer I prolonged it, the higher the chance sleep would leave me, the memories from my dream left behind.

  I decided to say the word so I could go back to sleep, and I prayed in the morning I wouldn't remember anything. I let the darkness take me, mumbling the single name.

  "Zane."

  "What time is it?" I mumbled when I reached the kitchen, still feeling sluggish after taking a long shower and changing into shorts and a crop top. I had a headache but I didn't feel like a seizure was coming. I still took my meds when I woke up, Alice forcing me to with her threat of staying home from her flying date with Koa to watch over me if I didn’t.

  It was Sunday afternoon and we had one week before our final exams. The weeks seemed to fly by after our break and with the increase in tests, assignments, and magic battles, we'd been too caught up to take a break till now. We'd been doing study sessions until yesterday and decided to take today off.

  I woke up to Kage sleeping next to me, holding me tightly. Alice was in her fox form curled next to my head and Koa sat on the headboard as if guarding over us. When I woke Kage up, he asked if I was okay, but I had no clue why he seemed so worried. My guess was I had some type of dream about Brother again like I'd been having all week. I couldn't remember what happened, but I assumed it was the same as always. What else would cause me to cry and scream in my sleep?

  "You're awake, Precious? To answer your question, it's one in the afternoon." Logan was at the stove making what looked to be hamburgers.

  I mumbled my thanks, rubbing at my eyes, my vision blurry with sleep. I hadn't used magic today so what was the big deal?

  Logan put the pan on the left burner, turning the stove off before walking towards me. "You okay?"

  "Hmm? I'm really tired and my vision sucks," I complained.

  Logan frowned, lifting his hand up to press against my forehead. "You're really warm. I think you're coming down with a fever. Did you take your seizure medicine?"

  "Ya. Alice forced me to before she went out." I sighed, wondering if I should go back to bed and rest. I didn't have an appetite and my sore muscles and blurry vision weren’t making me feel any better.

  Logan embraced me and I sank into his warmth, wishing he'd come up with me and take a nap with me.

  As if reading my thoughts, Logan asked,"You want to nap?"

  "Yes, but not alone," I confessed.

  "Okay, we can go sleep,” he whispered and I nodded into his shirt. He stroked my hair as we stood in each other's arms.

  "Jewel's awake?" Brax's voice questioned. I slowly looked over my shoulder to see the others standing in the doorway. They took a good look at me and all wore different expressions of worry.

  "Jewel looks like she survived a war," Kage said quietly, walking up to me.

  I pulled out of Logan's hug to squint at Kage. "I do not."

  "Let me get her glasses," Brax announced, leaving the room and heading upstairs.

  "Jewel you're a little pale. Maybe you should go back to bed?" Maximus suggested, as he came to stand next to Kage who hugged me.

  "I'm going to take a nap soon," I confessed. Kage released me and Maximus took his turn to hug me.

  I moved to Nixon who rubbed my back. "Is Logan gonna be your napping buddy for today?"

  I smiled "Yes, but you can join too," I whispered.

  "I'll kick him off the bed. He's a blanket hogger," Logan argued.

  Kage and Maximus chuckled. "That's not too bad." Maximus pointed out.

  Brax returned as I pulled out of Nixon's hug. "Here Jewel." Brax slid the specs onto my face and I gave him a relieved smile.

  "Thanks." I smiled and his arms encircled me, hugging me tightly.

  "Don't get sick on us,” he whispered. I nodded in agreement. Brax released me and I yawned.

  "I guess I'll go na-"

  "JEWEL!"

  I flinched at the loud sound and noticed Kage also tense, grabbing his head. "Fuck, Koa! Don't fucking do that. It hurts!" Kage cursed.

  What, Alice?! I demanded, my head already pounding at the shrill of her voice.

  "Trouble! Zane's with a group of friends doing some stupid initiation shit! HURRY!"

  My eyes grew wide and I turned to Kage who looked worried.

  "Fuck, Zane!" he exclaimed.

  "Wait, what?" Maximus asked but we didn't have time to explain. Kage and I sprinted to the door, slipping on our shoes as we headed out. I used a spell to conceal myself until we reached the school grounds. I heard the others follow Kage and I as we sprinted down Spellbound road. Alice, where are you?!

  "The tower," she whispered uneasily like it was a forsaken place. I cursed, dread running through me.

  We reached the school grounds which were empty because it was Sunday. There wouldn't be any professors on campus unless there was an emergency and by the time we even attempted to call them, we might already be too late.

  We passed the same familiar bench and I could envision the little me sitti
ng on it, kicking my legs back and forth as I hummed, waiting for Mother to finish talking to Ms. Landsford before my eyes glanced to the tower.

  As if a reflex, I looked up, relieved to see that no one was there but it didn't stop my uneasiness. I needed to make sure Zane was safe before I would be able to calm down. As we approached the door to the tower, my legs came to a stop, my eyes lingering on the place where Gabriel fell to his death. I wanted to move, but it was like I was frozen with fear. Kage noticed and I gave him a worried look, hoping he would realize he'd have to go without me. He nodded in understanding and ran to the door, opening it up with a magic spell then rushed up the stairs. I watched the others follow and I stood there trembling as tears rolled down my cheeks.

  Not again. Please...not again. Hands gripped my arms and I looked up to see Logan's gold eyes.

  He placed his hand on my cheeks. "Breathe."

  I took a shaky breath. "Logan. What...what if...I...can't?" I began, my voice shaking from my anxiety as thoughts of Zane falling over the edge hit me in a rush. It was as if I'd witnessed it with my own eyes and now that I stood at the site that I’d found a way to avoid all semester, I couldn't seem to do anything.

  "No. Don't think like that. We aren't going to lose Zane. We're going to get him and slap some sense into that thick skull of his and head home to have burgers for lunch, alright?"

  "Alright. I- I...wanna help. I can't stay here alone," I confessed, knowing Logan would go off to help the others.

  He stared into my eyes and nodded, slipping his hand into mine. "Okay. Let's do this together."

  We both rushed to the entrance, Logan pressing his hand to the door and summoning a magic circle to unlock it. Then he opened it up for the both of us to squeeze through. We began sprinting up the stairs, one flight after the next, panting more with each floor.

  When we finally reached the top floor and opened the door, we both gasped and dropped to the ground to avoid the fireballs that flew at us, crashing into the wall behind us.

  "Don't interfere!" a voice snarled and I glanced up to see Eric who had his wand pointed our way. My eyes scanned the hall, noticing Braxton and Maximus beating the shit out of two older students while Kage was flinging ice shards and water balls at two students who looked to be freshmen like us.
