The word "together" hung in the air. Astra’s head was a heavy weight on my shoulder, but it was the good kind of heavy, the kind that kept you from floating away into the crazy bullshit your own life had beco.
"Adrian," she whispered, her voice thick with sothing I couldn’t na. "Show what ’together’ feels like."
I leaned in and kissed her. It was slow, not like the frantic ss in the dungeon. Her lips were soft, and they parted, letting in. My hand went to the back of her neck, tangling in her hair. She sighed, a sound that ant she was done fighting it.
"Master?" Reika’s sleepy voice cut through the mont. I looked over. She was awake, watching us with a grin that promised trouble. She crawled over, pressing herself against Astra’s back. "Reika wants to feel ’together’ too," she purred, her hands already sliding around Astra’s waist.
Astra tensed up for a second, then lted as Reika’s lips found her neck. Celeste was next, kneeling beside . She didn’t say a word, just kissed my cheek, her touch a calm anchor in the rising tide of lust. Valka was a shadow behind the couch, her presence a hot, heavy promise of possession.
The air beca thick, as I could feel all of them, their wants and their heat, all flowing into . "Bedroom," I grunted. "Now."
We stumbled into the bedroom, a ss of limbs and half-removed clothes. I pushed Astra onto the bed and followed her down. I kissed her again, tasting her, feeling that ancient, scary power of hers mixing with my own chaotic ss. It felt right.
Reika was on in a flash, her mouth on my neck, her teeth scraping my skin. Celeste’s hands were gentle on my face, her lips soft on my jaw. Valka’s hands gripped my hips from behind, her body a solid wall of heat at my back. I was drowning in them.
I moved over Astra, settling between her legs. Celeste kissed her, swallowing her gasp as Reika latched onto a nipple. Valka’s strong hands held Astra’s thighs open for . I lined myself up. Astra wrapped her legs around my waist and pulled in.
I slid into her, and the world fucking shattered.
It went silver. A wave of raw, draconic power slamd into , rging with the fire, ice, and dark already fighting for space inside .
It was like pouring gasoline on a fire that was already about to burn down the house. I could feel all of them, their pleasure, their lust, but Astra was a fucking supernova in the middle of it all. I could feel her power, her trust, her submission, all of it crashing into .
I started moving, slow at first, then harder. Celeste’s fingers were busy on Astra’s clit, rubbing in ti with my thrusts. Reika was between my legs, her hot mouth on my balls, sucking gently.
Valka leaned down, her voice a low growl in Astra’s ear. "Look at him, little dragon. Look how he claims you." She bit Astra’s nipple, and Astra cried out, a jolt of fire mana shooting through and making my vision flicker.
It was too much. Astra’s body was a live wire. She was tensing, her breath coming in ragged gasps.
"I’m... I’m..." she managed.
"Cum for us, princess," Valka commanded.
That did it. Astra’s back arched off the bed, a silent scream tearing from her throat as her pussy clamped down on like a vise.
The world dissolved into a fucking kaleidoscope of light. I felt her orgasm hit like a physical blow, a wave of pure pleasure that washed through and into the other girls. I couldn’t hold on.
With a hoarse shout, I buried myself as deep as I could and exploded, pouring everything I had into her.
I collapsed onto her, my body shaking, my heart hamring against my ribs like it was trying to escape. For a long mont, the only sound was our combined panting, the air thick with the sll of sex and burnt magic.
I felt Celeste’s gentle hand on my back, a soothing presence that kept grounded. Reika was still between my legs, but she had stopped her playful assault, instead just resting her head on my thigh, her fox ears twitching contentedly. Valka’s heavy arm was draped over my waist, her grip possessive even in sleep.
I pushed myself up, my muscles screaming in protest. Astra was still beneath , her silver hair a wild ss across the pillow, her eyes closed. She just stared at the ceiling, her chest rising and falling with deep, even breaths.
A peaceful smile was on her face, a stark contrast to the terrified, haunted look she’d worn when we first found her.
I looked down at my hands. Faint, shimring silver scales flickered across my knuckles before vanishing, but I could still feel them, a latent power just beneath my skin. It was a constant reminder of the bomb I was now carrying inside .
I carefully shifted off of her, not wanting to break the spell. Celeste helped , her touch gentle and supportive. "Are you okay?" she whispered, her eyes full of concern.
"Yeah," I lied, my voice raspy. "I think so."
Valka’s eyes opened, her golden eyes gleaming in the dim light. "You are a terrible liar, little man," she rumbled, her voice a low vibration that I felt more than heard. "That power took a toll."
"No shit," I muttered, running a hand through my hair. "I feel like I got hit by a lightning bolt. A very sexy, very naked lightning bolt, but still."
Reika finally stirred, lifting her head and blinking sleepily. "Master’s heartbeat is fast," she said, her ears perking up with concern. "And he slls like lightning and... and sadness."
I frowned. "Sadness?"
Celeste nodded, her expression solemn. "It’s Astra. We can all feel it now, can’t we? A faint echo of her loneliness, her centuries of imprisonnt. It’s... bleeding through."
She was right. Now that she ntioned it, I could feel it. A faint, lancholic undercurrent to the post-coital bliss, a ghost of sadness that wasn’t mine. It was a constant, low-level hum of despair that I knew would take so getting used to.
"Great," I said, slumping back against the pillows. "As if I didn’t have enough problems, now I’ve got a dragon’s emotional baggage to deal with."
"It’s not baggage," Astra’s voice was soft, but it cut through the room like a knife. We all turned to look at her. Her silver eyes were open, and they were clear, free of the fear and confusion that had clouded them before. "It’s a part of . A part of us now."
She sat up, the blanket pooling around her waist. She looked at each of us, her gaze lingering on . "You took my power, Adrian. You took my pain. It’s only fair that you share in the joy, too."
And with that, she leaned over and kissed . It wasn’t a passionate, desperate kiss. It was slow, tender, full of a newfound confidence and a deep, abiding affection.
When she pulled away, she smiled, a genuine, radiant smile that made my heart do a stupid little flip-flop.
"See?" she said. "Not all bad."
Reika, ever the opportunist, took that as an invitation. She scrambled up the bed, her tail wagging furiously, and planted a wet, sloppy kiss on Astra’s lips. "Not bad at all!" she declared, before turning to and giving the sa treatnt.
Celeste laughed, a light, musical sound that chased away the lingering shadows in the room. She leaned in and gave a proper kiss, her touch gentle and loving.
Valka just watched, a smug, satisfied smirk on her face. She didn’t need to join in. Her victory was in the fact that we were all here, in her territory, bound to and to each other.
We settled back into the bed, a tangled heap of limbs and contentnt. The exhaustion was still there, a deep, bone-weary weariness that would take days to shake off. But the instability, the chaotic, soul-tearing pressure in my chest, had eased. It was still there, a dormant volcano waiting to erupt, but for now, it was quiet.
The manor’s magic, combined with our shared bond, was keeping it at bay.
I closed my eyes, listening to the soft sounds of their breathing. I was more powerful than ever before, a walking, talking magical weapon with a harem of incredibly powerful, incredibly beautiful won. But I was also a target, a beacon for ancient predators and a ticking ti bomb of unstable mana.
I had the power, but now I knew, with terrifying certainty, that the problems were just getting started.
Without being called upon my systems panels popped into my vision.
