Then she began to buck back into me. Each time I buried myself inside her, Nari's back arched a little more. I could see her breasts sliding over the sheets, and I knew her nipples had to be so hard. When her hips started twitching, I rubbed her clit a little faster, and then slowed my pace. The next time I slid inside her, I made sure she felt every single inch. Then again.
Her face softened. Her breath paused. Her ass kept moving, begging for just a little more, and I gave it. The next thrust was harder, a little deeper, and that was all it took for her to go over the edge. Nari came, her head lifting a little more as her back arched, and I kept going, riding her through it even as the pulses of her release drove me higher than I'd ever been before.
I tried to last. I tried to drag out the pleasure for her the way Ela had explained, but I couldn't. She just felt too good like this, completely giving herself to me. I managed one more thrust, and then I knew nothing but pleasure. A deep grunt fell from my lips and I could feel my entire body throbbing with my release, but it was perfect. It was all she'd wanted, and everything I'd needed.
When the intensity of my orgasm finally subsided, I dropped down over her back, bracing on my forearms to hold my weight off her. "Happy Fresh Start," I whispered before sliding out of her body and dropping down into the space between her and Ela.
Nari murmured in contentment. "Happy Fresh Start." Then she looked at Anver before rolling over to face me. "Morning, Wraythe."
"Good morning, beautiful," I said, aware that my words were still gravelly. Then I lifted my eyes to Anver. "I'm glad you stayed."
He chuckled before throwing off the blankets. "Yeah, and now she needs a shower, and I need some hot water to wake up."
"Sharing?" I asked. "Make sure you wash her hair. She loves that."
"Wraythe," Nari groaned. "Not fair. That's your thing."
"No reason it can't be his too," I told her. "In case you missed it, my thing is spoiling you as much as I can. This counts."
"Then you have five minutes before the water's warm," Anver warned as he headed into the bathroom.
Nari looked over her shoulder to watch him, but when he was out of sight, she turned back to me as she worked her panties back into place. "The hair thing was sexy."
I knew she didn't mean washing it. She was talking about me grabbing her hair and pulling it, and I liked that. Knowing she liked it felt good. It made me feel desirable. She liked to be manhandled, I liked feeling as if I wasn't going to hurt her, and this was something much too gentle for Ela.
"Careful," I teased, "I might start to get some ideas."
"Lots and lots of them," she whispered, leaning in to press a quick and chaste kiss to my lips. "I love you, Wraythe."
"Mm, kinda like you love them," I agreed. "I love you too, Nari. Now go shower. I'll find you something to wear."
Those golden eyes of hers found mine and a soft smile touched her lips. She didn't need to say a single thing. That was enough. My woman had just realized that this was one more way for me to spoil her, and I was pretty sure she liked it.
I knew I did.
Chapter 10
Anver
Itook Wraythe's advice and washed Nari's hair for her. Pressed against her wet, naked body in the shower was nice in a way I hadn't expected. It was as if she was sharing her post-coital bliss with me, and it made me feel even more included - which I missed so much. Because while I'd watched Nari, Ela, and Wraythe play around as kids, we weren't kids anymore.
My duties kept me separated from them still, but that didn't seem to matter. When I was required to be with Tishlie, these four simply accepted it. They treated my absence as no different than one of them being in class, even though I was with another woman. I wanted to say that was because I wasn't sexual, but I knew better. It might be true with anyone else, but not with these four.
They accepted me as I was. They welcomed me back without reservation. They loved me, and I could fuckingfeelit. I couldn't even explain how, but the sensation was there, coursing over my skin in a way that wasn't a part of me, and yet it was. That had to be the bond every guardian talked about, but none of these people were my wards. At least, not officially.
But they all had a part of my heart. They definitely held a piece of my soul. I also couldn't miss the simple fact that those sensations had become a little stronger over the course of the night, and now they were clear and defined this morning. It was as if something had locked into place, and I couldn't help but wonder if that had been my decision to stay last night.
When Wraythe had asked me to crash with them, it had been my final straw. Talin had told me to move in. Ela and Nari made it clear they wanted me around. I no longer cared what Tishlie wanted or liked. Her opinions were nothing more than an annoyance to ignore until we graduated to disciples. Together, it was enough to convince me that I was staying here. The temple might see my room as being in the initiate wing, across the hall from Tishlie, but this? It was my real home.
It was where I belonged, where I truly wanted to be. When I'd crawled into the bed with them last night, I'd decided that I would stop trying to hold myself back. I would no longer expect rejection. They wanted me, I wanted to be with them, and this was where I could actually be happy. I was staying. It might be unofficial, but it still counted.
Thankfully, the day of the Fresh Start always started a little late. The guys took their time about sipping their morning tea. We all dressed in comfortable and casual clothes. When we were finally feeling awake and functional, the five of us headed up the hall to the dining area for Priests of the Body and Protection to get some breakfast.
Nari had taken my arm, all but forcing me to escort her there. Ela and Talin were behind us, walking with their heads together and mumbling about something. Wraythe trailed behind them, a smile on his lips that proved he was in a good mood after his morning fuck session - which was probably what Ela and Talin were talking about.
The whole thing was nice. It felt like old times, in a way. But as we stepped into the dining hall, I realized there was one thing I hadn't thought of. The shriek from across the room reminded me that Tishlie would not be as happy about this as I was. I tried to let Nari go and step away, hoping that would keep my friends from being dragged into my mess, but Nari held fast.
"Isthatwhere you were last night?" Tishlie asked as she stormed into my face. Then, just to make her point, she looked Nari over and huffed in disgust. "You won't even give me the time of day, but you bend over backwards for this bitch?"
