A loud sniffle had us both looking toward Diana. She was wiping her tears on her blanket, her eyes wet with unshed tears. “Oh my stars, this is so emotional. I can feel how sad you both are. Can you two please make up?”
Zaz took a tissue out of his pocket and handed it to her, ever the gentleman. He was an amazing person, always there for everyone, and it hit me how badly I fucked up. How could I treat someone so pure the way I did?
I held Zaz’s face in my hands, then kissed him on the cheek. “Please take me back? I am so sorry. I promise that will never happen again.”
He was quiet for several seconds and brought me into a hug. His hair brushed my cheek. It smelled like some kind of essential oil, and instant calm spread through my heart.
“Of course,” he said, his voice thick and raspy. I pulled apart from him slightly, using my thumb to wipe his tears off his cheek.
“Thank you, Az.”
Diana got out of bed, and joined our hug, and the three of us enjoyed the closeness. A year ago, the idea of hugging people made me want to puke, but now I actually… liked it.
“You guys are hugging without me?!” Ares whined, running up to us and tackling all three of us into the bed. My face was smushed into the pillow, and I sighed.
I’m going to slice his finger off later, fucking heavy ass golden retriever,I mindlinked Az.
Oh, stop it. You secretly like his big strong body crushing you. I know I do,Az replied, waggling his eyebrows at me.
“They made up!” Diana’s eyes were sparkling, and she faintly glowed a pale gold.
“Oh good. We should have a celebratory group-lationship orgy!” Ares shouted, right in my ear.
Two fingers.Az gave me an admonishing look, and I huffed.What, they’ll grow back! He’s immortal.
“Come on, get up and get ready for breakfast. I’ll let the others know to carb load for the festivities later!” He raced out of the room as quickly as he came in.
“I’m only going to that orgy because you’ll both be there,” I groused as I got out of bed and searched for some pants.
“I’m going because I know Ares is super generous,” Az said, winking at me.
My horns sprouted, and a murderous burst of anger shot through me. I schooled myself, forcing them back in. Just because I changed didn’t mean I denied my nature. I still had to remind myself to share…that we werealltogether.
They both laughed at me and cuddled into each other. I watched them for a few seconds, then climbed over them, wedging myself in the middle. “I’ll fucking show you generous. I have a cock and a tail with both of your names on them.”
Az shivered, and I felt Diana’s body heat intensify. I could change all I wanted, but it didn’t mean I felt any less possessive over them. Silently I vowed to never be such a monster to either of them again. They weremine, and they deserved the best of me.

ARES
Feathers and Bash made up. There were bottomless bacon-pancakes in the dining hall today. We were about to draw up some battle plans and all was right with the world. The only appropriate way to celebrate was to plan a massive, all night group-lationship orgy tonight.
“Daddy D!” I said, locking Desmond in a headlock. He shoved me in the stomach, but I didn’t let go. I picked him up, throwing him over my shoulder and slapping his ass in the middle of the living room.
“What the fuck!” he faded out of my hold, then tackled me to the floor.
“Bash and Feathers made up, so we’re having a celebratory group orgy! Bring your dick, tail, and a themed snack. Load on carbs at the dining hall today. I have a few bottles of wine from Olympus, so we’re gonna get wrecked!”
He banded his arm over my throat as he peered down at me. His horns sprouted from his head, and he seemed annoyed. I got that there wasn’t a ton of time to prepare, but there would only be six people there. He rolled his eyes at me, then put more of his weight into pinning me down.
“Don’t call me Daddy or I swear to fuck…” his shadows curled around me, and they felt like a cold tickle. When some of them touched my dick I got instantly hard.
He swears to fuck us? Because I’m so in,Voice whispered.He’s so bossy… Think he’ll spit on us?
His suggestion gave me pause at first, but I’d try anything once.
Maybe? We can only ask and see.
