The Almost One Night Stand

Chapter 93

Mature Content Warning: smut, lots of smut

Nimue's POV

Since we had decided to hold the handfasting on Beltaine, the grounds around the lake were dotted with dozens of large pyres that lit the night sky. It reminded me of the night the twins were born. Erica and Jess had joined Brigid and me in the temple pools to prepare me for my wedding night. As the water poured over me and I slipped into the sheer gown, I smiled thinking of the night Gabe, Luke, and I had spent making love in the pools. I'd never felt more complete than that night, and now, I was about to complete my bond to all of them within the fires this time.

"Are you nervous?" Jess whispered in my ear.

I gave her a shy smile, "A little." I shivered as the cool night air touched my skin. Looking up, I saw Nate and Kota near the first fire circle. While I'd never participated in a Beltaine ritual in this life, I had in past lives and seen many more. Both Erica and Brigid placed a kiss on my forehead before I walked through the flames and into the circle.

I watched through the flames as Beltene pounded his staff onto the ground and spoke. "I proclaim my blessing upon this union. May each of them find happiness and fulfillment within each other. Beannachtaí!" He stepped to Kota and whispered something in his ear that made him grin and nod, then the old god stepped closer to Erica and took her hand in his. He whispered in her ear, making her blush then they walked away.

I turned my attention back to Kota and Nate just as they jumped the fire ring, joining me in the middle. They knelt before me as I lifted the ceremonial cup to their lips, then they lifted it to mine. The spiced drink made me feel warm inside as Nate took my hand. "Nimue, mi corazón, I offer myself to you body and soul, as your husband and King. Will you accept me?"

"Nathan, I accept you as my husband and King," I answered him. "I offer myself to you, body and soul as your wife and Queen. Will you accept me?"

"I will," he responded and stood to place a soft kiss upon my lips, then stood to the side as Kota spoke.

"Nimue, my fire, I offer myself to you body and soul as your husband and firebond. Will you accept me?"

I smiled, "Kota I accept you as my husband and firebond. I offer myself to you, body and soul as your wife and firebond. Will you accept me?"

He stood and pulled me into his arms, "I will always accept you, my fire." When his lips met mine, my body burned with need. His hands gently pulled the gown down from my shoulders as Nate came behind me and helped. I don't remember their pants coming off, but soon I found myself being held against their naked bodies as they covered my skin in kisses. Nate scooped me up and placed me on the ceremonial bed - a soft blanket ringed with herbs and flowers - as he knelt behind me. His hands began to massage my thighs and then his thumb brushed across my clit, making me moan softly. Kota knelt in front of me, his lips capturing my nipple and sucking hard.

One hand tangled in Kota's hair, while the other pulled Nate's mouth to mine. I gasped when I felt Nate's cock slip in between my folds. "Mi corazón," he moaned as he began to thrust inside of me. Kota's fingers slid against my wetness and began to rub against my sensitive clit, until I was panting. "Cum, Nimue," Nate whispered and I felt my body tremble as my orgasm broke.

Before I could come down from my release, Kota slid himself inside me. Now they both began to thrust in and out, creating a frantic rhythm that had me crying out their names, begging for more. "You know this is a fertility festival, my fire, don't you?" Kota asked, his lips skimming across my earlobe.

"Yes," I groaned softly.

"Do you accept the will of the Wheel, our beautiful wife? Will you accept the blessings of the line of Beltene within your womb?" Kota asked, his voice strong and confident as he thrust harder. "Will you accept the blessing of your King within your womb?"
