He’s not wrong, but who am I to judge? I’m currently in a happy relationship with three guys and kept it a secret for as long as I could. Dina is more than entitled to do the same.
We sit around the patio table, talking and eating. Mom asks Theo about his plans now that he’s finished school, and even though I know the answer, I smile every time he talks about it.
“I’ll be back at SCU, actually. But this time I’ll be on the other side of the desk.”
“A teacher?” Dad asks, pride in his voice.
“Eventually. But first I’m helping Cael with the new state-of-the-art library facilities. With the old school housing structure abolished, we’re building one giant library. We’ll have physical books and digital ones. A few of our nerdier friends from campus have already started translating old original copies into digital files. Eventually, we’d like to have an archives room with rare originals, but we’re still fighting for that.” He looks at me, thenup at the sky, and I know what’s coming next. “Once that’s set up, I’ll be taking over Castiel’s class and teaching history.”
“How wonderful,” Mom tells him. “I think he’d approve.”
“I owe it to you both, and Dina, for everything you’ve done to remove the Fallen divide.”
“We’re proud of what we’ve done so far, but there’s still a long way to go,” Dad says. “Mari has been itching to open a cafe, though, so that’s why we were hoping Dina was back. See if she’d be interested in taking over for her.”
“That’s amazing!” I say, and I mean it. Mom would kill with a bakery. Plus, she’d get to see so many angels that it would probably give her some insight into the daily lives of others in the community. She could still help overall.
The topic shifts to demons, souring the mood. Zeke stiffens like he knows they aren’t supposed to discuss this with us non-guild members, but Mira has no such qualms.
“Sightings are low. One, maybe two a month since defeating Auriel. After that epic loss, I doubt they’ll do anything foolish for a while.”
“We can only hope,” Mom adds, then changes the topic to ask Raph and me about our upcoming work with the Archangels. I’ll be assisting with city regulations while Raphael works with their change management and innovation team. It’s not where either of us expected to end up, but it brings us both purpose and that’s what matters.
The next few hours pass without incident. To my surprise, the guys didn’t start up my toy again. Even though it’s not buzzing, I’ve been on edge all afternoon. We play crokinole and a terrifying game of spoons that reveals just how competitive Mira and Zeke are. My parents called a tie before things escalated. He’s come a long way since Mira’s secrets came to light, and I’m just happy they get along again.
When it’s time to head out, I stop in the hallway and stare at the newly framed photos on the wall. After the bonding ceremony, we went back to Esther’s parlor and had more photos taken, this time with the four of us. I think we might have spent an entire eight hours there, but the shots we got were worth it. Some are serious while others are goofy. Even Zeke, my handsome grump, let loose.
Eventually.
“Thank you for this,” I tell my parents as I hug them goodbye.
“Any excuse for your mom to cook,” Dad says.
She laughs, playfully swatting his arm. “See you in a few days for family dinner!”
Mira offers us a little wave, then heads back to the guild. I swear that woman lives there. It can’t be healthy, but she’s been struggling after everything that went down, and this is how she copes.
The moment we’re in the air, I feel Zeke’s presence in my mind.Fair warning, hummingbird, is all he says before the toy in my pussy comes to life. My wings nearly give out, but Theo and Zeke are there to catch me. All I can do is wrap my arms around their necks and hold on while an orgasm barrels through me. It comes on faster than ever, but I guess that’s what happens when you’re on edge all day.
From the corner of my eye, I catch Raphael pocketing the remote with a grin.Smug isn’t a good look on you, I tell him when I catch my breath. The toy hasn’t stopped, but if I hold my legs just right, it takes the pressure off enough for me to think straight.
“We’re just prepping you for when we get home,” Theo whispers in my ear as Raphael approaches.
He grabs my legs and holds them together just long enough to have my body shaking with need, then he spreads them.
“What’s happening when we get home?”
Zeketsksagainst my neck. “That’s a surprise.”
Raphael puts pressure on the toy until I’m on the verge of coming apart once again, but then he pulls it out. Immediately I feel empty. My whimper gets carried away by the wind.
Do you trust me, sunshine?
You know I do.
Good girl, is all he says before I feel the toy, already slick with my arousal, between my ass cheeks. He pushes it in, slowly. There must be a button on it because it no longer pulses like it was before, and all that’s left are soft vibrations.
The guys bunch my dress up, exposing my pussy to anyone who dares to look, but up here in the clouds, it’s only us. As Raphael trails his fingers along my inner thighs, jolts of electricity dance in their wake. “What are—” Then I feel the first drop of water hit my clit.
