The First Night One

The First Night One
Sophia POV

But from this chaste kiss, a new emotion began to take hold. I felt Perseus's hands on my back, and my skin tingled at the mere touch of his firm, warm fingers, tracing invisible paths on my skin. It was as if electricity pulsed between us. I slightly parted my lips, surrendering to the moment, and my Alpha soon took control of my mouth, as if he had been waiting for this silent invitation.

Our tongues began to intertwine with speed, with force, with a hunger that could no longer be contained, while he made me suck in his air to breathe better. But there was a different fire, something beyond simple lust, something that began to consume me from within, because I wanted much more than just this kiss that burned like embers in my mouth.

I took my hands from the back of his neck and slid them down to his shirt, feeling the muscles beneath the fabric, desperately wanting to remove it, because all I could think about was how his skin would feel against mine. I could already feel how excited he was getting, his body tense, his breathing heavy. But before I could undo the first button, I felt Perseus's hands against mine, gently stopping me.

As he pulled his mouth away, and small threads of saliva stretched between us before breaking, a frustrated moan escaped my lips, involuntary, coming from the depths of my desire. My nipples were hard, painfully sensitive, and the touch against the fabric of his shirt left me even more breathless, as if the friction teased me cruelly.

“Soph…” Perseus called, still holding my hands firmly but gently, and took a step back, fighting against his own impulses. “We can't…” His voice was hoarse, thick with emotion and contained desire, and I could feel him trembling, his self-control hanging by a thread.

I let out another frustrated moan, this time louder, more laden with longing, and before I could do anything to bring him back to me, I heard Nina's voice, coming from somewhere in the room.

“Actually…” Nina let out a low, almost musical laugh. “Now you can, because Sophia's current body is no longer human, and the balance won't make her weaker.” Her words were like a long-awaited revelation.

I turned my face to look at the priestess, and saw her serene expression, almost ethereal, but there was a glint of amusement in her eyes, as if she had known everything that was about to happen, as if she had foreseen every breath of mine.

“You just can't mark each other yet. The balance needs to reach its peak before the mark can happen.” Nina explained, her voice calm but authoritative.

One of the things I noticed, amidst all the sensations overwhelming me, was that Alex had discreetly left the room, almost without me noticing. Now, it was just me, my mates, and Nina, in an intimate circle that seemed to contain the entire world within it.

While I felt a relief coming from Achilles and Perseus, a perceptible relaxation in their auras, I sensed a growing tension in Khalid. After all, Khalid had just entered the circle, but I desired him with the same fierce intensity with which I desired Perseus and Achilles.

Then I heard the steps of my vampire, echoing through the room like a soft melody, and saw him enter my field of vision. His smile was simple and serene, as if he accepted everything with a deep calm, something akin to what I saw in Nina. Perhaps he had learned to be so calm, so centered, from her.

“Don't worry, Shi.” Khalid said, his voice sweet as honey but firm as steel. “This first moment is yours, Perseus's, and Achilles's.”

“Khalid…” I called, my voice laden with emotion, and Perseus released my hands. I extended my arm to take my vampire's hand, feeling the supernatural cold of his skin against my warm one, and something calmed inside me.

“I'm not abandoning you.” Khalid said resolutely, looking into my eyes. “But I understand… I've been here almost from the beginning, I've seen your bond with Perseus and Achilles evolve.” His honesty hit me like an arrow. “I can't say I don't have a little jealousy, but it's not enough for me to deny you.”

The vampire explained his reasoning with a painful calm.

“I would never do that, but I understand that this first time has to be just with the two of them.” Khalid then moved closer to me, and Perseus, respectfully, stepped back by two steps, leaving the space between us free.

My mate touched my face tenderly, his long, cold fingers caressing my warm skin, and then brought his face close to mine, near my ear. “After this… I'll demand my time with you… Just you and me.” Khalid whispered, his voice very close to my ear, his breath tickling my skin, making me shiver from head to toe. A whispered promise that made me tremble with anticipation.

Khalid then gave a delicate kiss on my forehead, like a silent seal, and stepped back. I was speechless, because I had never imagined myself in a situation like this. It was so strange, so intense, so mine.

“Khalid!” Achilles called, and I saw my vampire turn to look at my Beta. “Thank you.” A simple word, but full of meaning.

Khalid smiled, that smile that held millennia of history, and made a brief bow. Then I saw him leave the room with Nina. I believe he would handle the case of Alex and Nina being mates, another unexpected bond.

As the door closed, I felt Perseus's arms around me, under my legs, as he lifted me from the ground with ease, and I let out a low, nervous, and excited laugh.

“Finally, after so long…” Perseus said with a hoarse, desirous voice, and in a few steps, we were in front of the bed.

My Alpha placed me on the bed, kneeling, while Achilles approached. My heart raced, as if it wanted to jump out of my chest, because his aura was as hot as Perseus's, and heavens! Just thinking about finally having them made me wet.

The two of them lifted their heads slightly, while their noses grew, inhaling deeply. They had certainly smelled my excitement, and it only inflamed them more.

“Heavens! Your scent is wonderful!” Perseus said, climbing onto the bed, holding my face with both hands, and starting another kiss, hungry, passionate, necessary.

Without fear, I arched my back, surrendering completely, while I brought my hands to the back of his neck and buried my fingers in his hair, pulling him closer. Our tongues intertwined again, while our heads moved in sync. This intense kiss was leaving me breathless, but I didn't care. The only thing I could think about was wanting more. Much more.

I let out a scream in the middle of the kiss, because I hadn't noticed that Achilles had climbed onto the bed and was behind me. His large, warm hands were on my breasts, his fingers playing with my nipples, and this caught me completely by surprise.

But my body reacted immediately to this new touch, leaving me even wetter, more desperate, more alive. I could feel my muscles contracting, waiting for what was to come.

Perseus pulled his head back for a moment, but I didn't have much time to breathe, because Achilles soon sought my lips with his. I could already feel my lips swelling from all the kisses.

Perseus lowered his head, and I felt him take my left nipple between his lips, sucking and nipping gently. I let out another loud moan in the middle of the kiss, surrendering.

The sensation was wonderful, indescribable. The sparks of destiny spread to every place they touched, and I knew, with absolute certainty, that I wanted to be consumed by this. By them. By us.
