He nods quietly, his clay brown eyes wide with anticipation and nervousness. I lower my mouth to his balls and slowly suck them into my lips, and my cock throbs with pleasure at the sound of his responding moan.

Max strokes himself slowly, with me occasionally pausing to lick a long line up his shaft, lubricating him. I peer up at him periodically, pleased to see the self-consciousness fade from his eyes as he gives in completely to his own pleasure.

“Can I have you?” I murmur into his shaft.

He nods emphatically, his hand flying away from his cock as I move to take it in my mouth. I see him grip the chair’s armrests out of the corner of my eye, his knuckles going white as I start pumping my mouth up and down his length easily.

I hum around him in pleasure as I suck him off, thrilled at the feeling of his entire shaft in my mouth. I keep him all the way inside my mouth as I please him, one hand brushing his stones as his tip bounces against my throat.

After a few minutes, I feel his legs start to quiver, and I know he’s close. I increase my pace, keeping a steady rhythm as I move up and down his length. He whines quietly, guttural, as I go, and I feel my own manhood straining against my pants at the sound. I’m ravenous for him, and I give in to my own hunger as I bring him to a cascading orgasm.

“Ah, godsdamnit!” Max cries out as he comes. I keep my mouth latched around him, taking all of his release down my throat. The feeling of his cock pulsing inside my mouth is pure bliss, and I let my eyes flutter closed with the sensation.

Once I’ve swallowed all that he has to give, I look up to see Max’s head thrown back between his shoulders. I smile atthe sight before standing and bending over to kiss him. When I gently lift his face to meet my gaze, though, I see that his eyes are screwed close as if he’s embarrassed.

“Max, what’s wrong?” I blurt out, all bravado gone.

He shakes his head and sighs, keeping his eyes closed. “Do you think –do you think I –ah, gods, this is hard to say out loud.”

I shush him and bring him in for a tender kiss, feeling his worries melt away slightly at my touch. “Was that too much?” I ask quietly. I’m terrified of his answer, especially because I hadn’t even realized until now how badly I need him –him and Mili, maybe even Cory, too. I just want us to all be together, come what may.

Joy lights up inside me when Max replies, “Oh, gods no! I, well, I really enjoyed it. I’ve always had a bit of a crush on you. I just didn’t realize it until Mili came into the picture.”

I nod in agreement. “I know what you mean. She has a way of making us all a bit more open. More honest.”

“She really does,” Max sighs, shaking his head. “I wanted to ask – anddon’tlaugh–do you think I’m ... good enough? For any of you?” His words genuinely shock me, and I quickly close my mouth after it falls open. “I know it sounds stupid–” he blurts out.

“I think you’re better than any of us can even put into words, Max.”

He scoffs. “Don’t try to butter me up, Port. I can see right through it.”

I scowl back. “What? You’re braver than the lot of us, Max.”

“Certainly not!” he exclaims.

I grip his shoulders softly and shake my head. “That’s not true. I see how worried you get, how much you restrain your powers trying not to hurt us. You don’t wholly trust yourself, your fire, but you fight for us, anyway. You’re fighting a constant internal battle, but you put on a brave face to keep everyone happy and unworried. You don’t think I’ve noticed? You don’t think I’d care enough to really see you? Max, I–” I cut myself off, suddenly stuttering over my words.

I don’t want to scare him away with the intensity of my feelings –for him and the others, both.I’ll tell him another time, I silently promise myself. When I refocus on Max, I see he’s staring slack-jawed at me.

I shake myself and continue firmly, “You’re truly special to me, Max. Don’t doubt it for a second. Swear?”

I eye him, forcing a stern gaze, and he cracks a soft smile. “Okay, I swear.”

Then I break out in a real grin and stand, lifting him by the hands with me. I pull him into a firm embrace, grinning wider as he claps his hands on my back. We pull back but stand there a moment, just smiling at each other, both perfectly happy.

Then there’s a knock on the door, and Max’s hands fly to button up his pants. I press a quick kiss to his lips and pull back with a wide smile, before walking to the door.

“Just a moment!” Max blurts out, completely flustered.

Before I can hold the door closed, though, Cory bursts in, beaming proudly. He opens his mouth to yell something out, but stops short when he sees Max’s red face and half-buttoned pants.

I notice Mili at the same time: her tangled hair, her sex-glazed eyes, her swollen lips. Cory and I make eye contact at the same time, a million unspoken questions and excited exclamations flowing between us. Through our growing bond, I feel a strong surge of pack pride from Cory, and I send back a wave of comfort and caring.

“Max? Port?” Mili asks, eyes darting between the two of us, shocked.

As Max sputters in the back of the room, I say loudly, “How was the spell?”

Mili’s face lights up in distracted excitement, and she squeals as she flings her arms around me. “I almost forgot to tell you –it worked!”
