I whispered back, barely a breath, “I love you too, Archer. Always.” Our gazes locked once more, the moment's intensity hanging heavy in the air around us. With a reverence that bordered on sacred, he began to undo the intricate clasps of my dress, each movement deliberate and careful. The fabric pooled at my feet, leaving me bare before him—both physically and emotionally. His touch was electric against my skin, igniting a fire that blazed through every fiber of my being.
As he shed his robes, revealing the sculpted contours of his body, I couldn’t tear my eyes away. The flickering torchlight danced across his skin, highlighting every ridge, tattoo, and plane in a play of light and shadow. At that moment, he was no longer just Archer, but a god-made flesh, a being of raw power and desire. He laid me down gently on the smooth stone surface, and the heat between us grew palpable as he lowered himself over me, our bodies fitting together like two flames merging into one.
With a hunger that bordered on desperation, he claimed my lips once more in a kiss that left me breathless. I looked away fromhim when I saw Theo and Kai approach us. At the same time, the members of The Brotherhood stood in solemn silence around us, their masked faces giving nothing away as they watched the culmination of The Ceremony unfold.
Kai and Theo pulled off their robes, letting them fall to their feet, letting me see their nakedness. I gasped in surprise, unsure what to do or where to look. The tension in the room skyrocketed as Kai and Theo locked eyes with Archer, a silent understanding passing between them.
The officiant's voice cut through the charged atmosphere, his words resonating with a spiritual power that sent shivers down my spine. “In the presence of The Brotherhood, we bear witness to this union of souls,” he intoned, his eyes glinting with desire. “Let the bonds of brotherhood forged this night be unbreakable, let the love between these two be eternal, and may their souls be forever intertwined.”
Kai and Theo knelt beside us, their gazes steady and unwavering. I searched Archer’s eyes and found nothing, but desire reflected back at me. As I lay there, vulnerable and exposed, I felt a surge of conflicting emotions. Archer’s touch on my skin sent a jolt of electricity through me. His hands traced patterns of fire and ice, leaving a trail of sensation in their wake. Kai and Theo mirrored his movements, their caresses adding to the dizzying whirl of pleasure and anticipation that enveloped me.
I closed my eyes, letting myself be consumed by the sensations, by the heady mix of desire and uncertainty that coursed through my veins. The touch of three different sets of hands on my body ignited a fire within me, threatening to engulf me in intensity. My breath came in short gasps, my heart pounding as I surrendered to the moment.
Archer’s lips found mine once more, his kiss possessive and urgent. I felt him push himself inside of me, and I clung to him, my nails digging into his back. He continued to kiss me, his lips finding every sensitive spot on my neck and ears. I moaned softly, my body arching against him. His teeth gently grazed my skin, leaving a trail of wetness that made me shiver in the cold air.
Kai and Theo gently moved to my sides, their hands tracing patterns across my body. Their touches were different but just as electrifying as Archer's. I felt their fingers explore every inch of me, from my shoulders to my hips and back again. I knew that Archer wasn’t ready to share me, and I wasn’t prepared either. But both of us had a role to play, and I’d be damned if I let these gray-balled fucks take him from me. I sat up, pushing Archer on his back, and I straddled him, letting him stretch me as he entered me again. I leaned forward and kissed him, hoping to breathe into him the depth of my love for him and only him. I looked into his eyes, seeing the fire that burned in them, matching mine. He understood my message, and I felt his body respond. His hands grip my hips, pulling me closer, deeper.
I looked at Kai first, his eyes dark with unspoken desire, and I touched his face gently, whispering a comforting message of consent. His eyes softened, and he leaned in to kiss me. His lips were soft and tender, but I could feel the passion simmering beneath the surface. I ran my fingers through his hair, feeling the silken strands between my fingers as our tongues danced together.
Next, I turned to Theo, whose eyes were filled with longing and reverence. I touched his cheek, feeling the rough stubble against my skin. His gaze was intense, and I could sense a deep affection within him. I leaned in, pulling him toward me, and our lips met. Theo’s kiss was slow and deliberate, filled with a tenderness that took my breath away. His hands gently cradled my face, and I could feel the warmth of his touch as his lips traced the contours of my lips, my cheeks, and my neck. Archer still moved inside of me, his fingers gripping my hips possessively as if he feared losing me if he loosened his hold.
Theo moved around behind me while Kai took his place in front of me. I leaned forward enough to expose myself to Theo. Theo grabbed onto my hips and gently spread my cheeks apart. The sound of his spit hitting my skin echoed in the room before he thrust himself inside me, causing me to gasp and squirm from the intense sensation of being filled by him.
His thrusts were slow and deep, almost painful, but I knew it was all part of the ritual. I looked over at Kai, who was stroking hiserection, watching the scene in front of him. Archer was still inside me, and his grip on my hips tightened as he felt Theo enter me from behind.
Kai moved closer to me, his erection close to my face. I took him in my hand, stroking him gently as he watched the three of us. A droplet of pre-cum glistened on the tip, and I licked it, tasting his saltiness. Kai groaned, his eyes closing as he watched me pleasure him. I took him in my mouth, savoring his taste as his hands tangled in my hair. The rhythm of his hips matched Theo’s behind me, and I could feel Archer’s growing urgency inside of me. My body was on fire, and I moaned around Kai’s cock as I felt the wave of pleasure building.
Archer couldn't take it anymore. As I moaned around Kai's cock, Archer's grip on my hips tightened, and he thrust himself deeper and emptied himself inside me. My body convulsed as an orgasm tore through me, my walls clamping down on Archer's cock as I cried out. Kai's hips bucked, his cock throbbing in my mouth, and I felt his climax join mine as he spilled his essence onto my tongue and into my throat.
Theo continued to thrust behind me, maintaining a steady rhythm, his hands wrapped around my waist, keeping me steady. As his thrusting intensified, I felt a rush of warm liquid surge into my ass, signaling his climax. With a final cry, I collapsed on Archer, my body spent and wrung out.
The officiant's voice broke the silence again. "In this moment of union, we bear witness to the sacrament of the flesh. May your bond be unbreakable and your love everlasting."
Archer's arms tightened around me, his heart pounding against my chest. Gritting my teeth, I endured the pain and humiliation as men in masks watched as my friends were forced to take advantage of me. But even in that moment of utter degradation, my loyalty to Archer remained unshaken. I would do whatever it took to prove my love for him, even if it meant being reduced to nothing but a vessel for pleasure. As I lay there, battered and broken, hot tears stung my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. I wouldn’t give those bastards thesatisfaction of seeing me break. My only solace was knowing that Archer stood above them all, the true master of my body and soul.
As the men in masks dispersed, satisfied with what they witnessed, I lay there, spent and vulnerable, Archer's arms still wrapped around me as we both struggled to catch our breath.
Archer's voice was barely a whisper as he spoke, "I love you. Nothing will ever come between us, no matter what they have done to you or me."
I looked into his eyes, my own still filled with tears, but I managed a weak smile. "And I love you, Archer. More than life itself. We will face whatever comes our way together."
Kai and Theo, now naked and spent, lay beside us, their eyes filled with a mixture of awe and respect. It was clear that they had never witnessed such a display of love and loyalty before. Archer broke the silence, addressing them both.
"Go and make sure that everything is set for the ball. I’ll get Mila back to the house.”
“Mila, I’m so sorry,” Theo said, kneeling before me.
“You are stronger than anyone I’ve ever met,” Kai followed.
“Don’t be sorry. We all did what had to be done, but let’s leave it here and never speak about it again,” I whispered, my voice shaking with emotion as I wiped away the tears that had finally fallen.
Archer stood up, lifting me in his arms, and together, we walked out of the room, leaving behind the echoes of our love and our pain.
