Severing Sanguine: A Companion Book to The Fallocaust Series Book 2 (98 page)

The growl in my throat disappeared, and the words I had heard Silas speak echoed in my head. The threat to all of us that we were not outside of his punishment just because we were immortal. Though I had seen and had loved Silas as the patient and loving king, he was a thousand personalities in one, and I had to be cautious of all of them. Not only for my own safety, I had to take care of Jack now too.

And taking care of Jack and keeping him safe was my top priority. I had to push down my own feelings of betrayal and my own loss of control – and let Silas do what he wants with me.

So I nodded, and with Jack squeezing my shoulder I got down on one knee and held his hand to my lips. I kissed it and looked up at him.

“My apologies, my king,” I said to him. “I was running on emotion over what has just happened. I’m sorry.”

Silas nodded his approval and motioned for me to rise. Then he put an arm around me and turned us towards the crowd. The dozens of chimera eyes stared at us, the smell of blood, burnt flesh, and gasoline heavy in the air.

“Sanguine Sasha Dekker,” Silas said in a proud voice. “Welcome to the family.” Then pulled me to his side and beamed at the crowd. “Let’s eat! But leave room for Jasper.” I felt a kiss on my cheek. “My lovely will get the choice cuts.”

I speared a forkful of meat and looked at Jack. He was dipping his meat in a rich gravy that had been spilling out of his mashed potatoes like an overflowing volcano.

“Okay,” Jack said with a dry laugh. “One… two… three…”

We both popped the meat into our mouths at once and chewed, my pointed teeth shredding the meat easily in my mouth, which was good because barbequed Jasper was kind of tough.

“Not bad, a bit stringy,” I said picking a fiber out of my front teeth. “Jasper would do better in a slow cooker I think.”

My boyfriend laughed and nuzzled my neck. Around us our brothers were enjoying their food, the buzzing talking filling the room and mixing pleasantly with the aroma of cooked meat and alcohol. The stage I had been on was still lit, but instead of me being on display for the masses to drink in, there was only Jasper’s cooked leg on display surrounded by platters of already shredded meat. That on top of the buffet-style metal dishes that were situated beside the sound system. It was quite a feast.

“You’re feeling okay, baby, are you sure?” Jack asked for the fifth time since I had been allowed to sit down with him. King Silas was sitting with Elish, and though I couldn’t hear the conversation he was having with him it was making Silas beam like a bulb. Elish seemed relaxed as well, and Perish who was also sitting at their table.

“I am,” I said with a nod. Though I was only okay because the continuing party around me had been numbing the more traumatizing parts of my welcoming party. If there was one thing I had learned about traumatic experiences it was that you didn’t realize how much they fucked you up until after. At the time your only goal was to push through them.

And though Silas’s implant inside of my mind kept sending shocks of anxiety through me I had resolved myself to the reality that there was little I could do. If he had asked me beforehand I would’ve been okay with it, I think. It was that he had to make a show of it that bothered me. Silas seemed to love entertaining his audience just as much as I had.

As it stood, Silas shouldn’t have reason to turn off the implant that was allowing me to live a normal life, so I should be okay. If he wanted to use it to get obedience out of me, so be it, I didn’t plan on doing anything to make him mad. I loved my king, I was loyal to him, so why should I worry?

Anyways, I had a lot to celebrate – as I said this I speared another piece of Jasper meat and popped it into my mouth – I was eating my captor after force-feeding him gasoline and blowing him up. Not to mention the fact that I was now fully welcomed into this family after almost a year of being in Skyfall. Everything was just fine.

Jack beamed at me. I swallowed my food and kissed him on the lips. With Jack beside me, well, there wasn’t much to be upset about. The door on my past seemed to finally be closed.

Eventually my brothers and I had eaten our fill. The sengils came and took away our plates away and, oddly, the entire tables too. Then to further my confusion Kinny came over to us and handed us a bag.

“Are you staying?” Jack asked in an amused voice, one that made me give him a suspicious look.

Kinny bit his lip but soon a smile appeared on his face. “The dominant chimeras outnumber the submissive ones, Master Jack. Most of the chimera-owned sengils will be joining.”

“Joining what?” I asked confused. Kinny put a hand over his mouth and giggled before scampering away.

I looked at Jack only to find that he was blushing too. He peeked into the bag, the tips of his ears reddening and handed me a small green piece of plastic. I looked at it and saw it was something called Listerine strips.

I cocked an eyebrow at Jack.

“Silas is strict about us having clean mouths for this, especially since we just ate. He hates bad breath; he’s so silly…” Jack took the container from me and cracked it open, inside was a thin strip of green that smelled minty. He took one out and handed it to me and took one for himself. Following his lead I put it on the roof of my mouth.

“Clean mouths for what?” I asked, my mouth filling with an overpowering minty taste.

Jack nodded towards the stage and I looked. Jasper’s remains had been wheeled away and in place the sengils were setting up… a bed?

Then an odd shuffling sound. I looked towards it as Jack giggled and saw more sengils drawing back the black curtain that had been covering the other half of this large room. Behind it was… one giant bed, about five king size beds all pressed up against one another, almost wall to wall. On these blanket-covered beds were sex toys, whips, lots of bottles of lubricant…

“Oh my god, you have to be kidding me?” I exclaimed. “Why didn’t you warn me… is this with all of us? Are you serious?”

Jack seemed to be enjoying this, he was grinning from ear to ear. “This usually happens during our big parties, but you don’t have to join in, hunny. You can just watch or even wait until Silas is distracted and leave. You know how our family is, we’re–” He thought for a moment before smirking. “– reinforcing family bonds.”

“By having an orgy!?” I exclaimed. I heard several laughs coming from different tables, one I recognized as Ceph and one as Garrett. Nosey fucks.

Jack shrugged playfully and kissed me again. “They’re fun, baby. You’ll have a great time, just stick near me. No one is going to make you do anything you don’t want to do and, like I said… we can both leave if you really don’t think you’re ready.”

I groaned and buried my face into my hands. “We haven’t even had proper sex yet since I woke up… why are you okay with this?”

“Because I want you to feel comfortable with our family,” Jack explained He put a hand on mine and rubbed it. Behind him sengils were handing out the bags, I hadn’t even looked to see what else was in them but Nero was taking out a bag of white powder. “Us making love in our own bed is a lot different than a family gathering, you know this by now.”

My lips pursed and I shook my head. I didn’t know how I felt about the casual but electric feeling in the air was starting to get to me. Perhaps this might be something interesting to… watch at least.

This family was strange. They had sex with each other to, as I had been told many times before, reinforce bonds and feel close to each other, and they seemed to be able to completely separate it from their feelings for their partners. In a normal relationship this just wouldn’t happen, or at least what my version of a relationship had always been. Nero having sex with Silas, or any one of us, didn’t seem to affect Ceph at all, it was just something that was accepted without thought.

I looked at Jack who was watching the sengils set up the bed on the stage, he was vibrating with excitement. This was the same boyfriend who got livid when he realized my close bond with King Silas, the same reaction I had gotten from Elish.

Then it hit me.

“You and Elish got jealous of my connection with Silas because it was based on emotion, on something deeper than just sex. It wasn’t about sex, because until recently Silas and I had never slept together,” I said to Jack. “Which is also why Elish was so angry when he caught Silas snuggled up to me, asleep in my arms. He also knew we hadn’t had sex, it was purely our strong emotional attachment to each other.” I scowled as the wool got drawn back from my eyes, suddenly how this family worked was making sense to me. “This right now, is just sex, and sure, we’re reinforcing bonds but it’s family bonds not relationship ones. That’s why you’re okay with this, but yet if Silas and I cuddled on the couch spilling our feelings to each other you and Elish would probably murder each of us, am I right?”

Jack nodded, looking proud that I had finally got it. “That’s right! See, we can have some fun tonight.” He took the paper bag and peeked inside of it. “Wow, we get MDMA tonight and ressin! The MDMA will make us all feel warm and fuzzy, it makes touch feel awesome too. The ressin will make us, well, you’ll see – want to try some?”

I shook my head, though I could see similar bags on the few remaining tables and chimeras already cutting them with their black cards. I recognized all of them, I think Kessler, Apollo, and Artemis had been the only two I hadn’t met yet. I could see the twins sitting next to each other, laughing and talking and touching each other affectionately as well. At the same table was a young man with spiky black hair and a smaller man with blond hair with dyed blue tips dressed in a sengil uniform. I didn’t count them but I’d guess there were about twenty of us, sengils included. This was going to be interesting.

Then, without an announcement or anything like that, Silas walked on stage with Kessler walking behind him. Silas was now wearing nothing but a black silk robe and Kessler too. As soon as they entered the lights on the stage dimmed further.

Kessler sat down on the bed and shifted himself backwards. I looked around at the chimeras to see Garrett was already on the giant bed to the left of me with none other than Kass, both of them making out, their shirts off and their pants unbuttoned. Everyone else was watching Kessler and Silas, some with white powder rimming their nostrils and others having their clothing removed by their brothers.

I looked back to Kessler and Silas and saw Silas’s robe off, his slender body glowing in the warm halogen lights. Kessler laying down on his back with Silas on his hands and knees over him, his dick semi-hard and being played with in Kessler’s hands.

“Kessler just turned fifteen last month,” Jack whispered in my ear. I felt his hand rest on my thigh and start to creep towards my groin. “He had his own initiation party, you missed watching him lose his virginity.”

Wow
. I felt a twitch in my pants at the thought of seeing someone lose their virginity for the first time. “And it… was in front of everyone?”

Silas was now kissing Kessler’s neck, I saw his tongue licking the nape before travelling down to his collarbone. Kessler running his hands through Silas’s wavy blond hair, his legs spreading further with anticipation.

“Yeah,” Jack said. I felt my pants loosen, he had undone one of the buttons. “Though it’s in a different room, a private room for the two of them but there are two-way mirrors for the family to watch. It’s quite… hot.” Jack’s head disappeared. I watched him get down on his hands and knees in front of me. I lifted my backside up off of the chair and let him draw my pants off of me, followed by my underwear. At first I felt shy and self-conscious over being exposed to the entire family, but then I looked to my left and saw Elish. Cold-hearted, impassive Elish. He had his shirt off and his pants down and red-haired Kinny was on his hands and knees with his head bobbing up and down.

Well, fuck it, if Elish could do this in front of our family – I could.

And it looked like I didn’t have a choice. A moment later, with my eyes still on Elish and Kinny, I felt Jack’s warm tongue wrap around the head of my dick. Then when I turned back to Silas and Kessler I saw Silas now flipped backwards on Kessler. Kessler was licking the king’s hole and Silas was going up and down on his dick.

I groaned, feeling my ears burn so hot they physically hurt, my senses were getting overloaded by everything I was seeing and this thing had barely started. I felt like my mind was going to melt.

I watched, in utter ecstasy, as Silas and Kessler worked on each other. Silas’s dick was now rigid, Kessler behind him devouring Silas’s ass as the king stroked and licked Kessler’s dick. I never thought watching other people do stuff like this would be hot but I was already feeling the temperature rise in my body, and the heat that started on my ears start to pool inside of my head.

A chair scraped beside me. I looked towards it and smirked as Nero, completely naked, pulled up a chair, Ceph also naked was beside him. Nero got up and Ceph sat down without a word and he pulled me in for a kiss. I was startled by the abruptness of this, I didn’t know Ceph as well as Nero, but I let him and when he opened his mouth I welcomed his tongue.

Though as we kissed passionately I felt Jack withdraw his mouth, only to put it back onto my cock a moment later. I looked down and my eyes widened when I realized Nero now had my dick half in his mouth, his eyes closed and his hands now gently rubbing my balls.

“Nero!” I said in shock.

They, of course, laughed at me. Nero looked up at me and winked, before the rest of my dick started disappearing into his mouth, until I could feel the head sliding down his throat. The feeling was amazing, there wasn’t a centimetre of my shaft in view, just trimmed pubic hair and Nero’s shit-eater grin.

And as Nero worked me over I saw my dirty little boyfriend with Ceph’s overly large dick in his mouth. And Ceph giving me a smug little grin as if wondering if I was going to make a deal out of it. To prove to him and Jack that I was a game player I grabbed Ceph again and kissed him.

“Ah-hah, there we go!” Nero said after he withdrew his mouth. He grabbed my cock and made it wiggle back and forth, before he gave it a few slaps against my thigh. I put a hand over my forehead and swore at the sensation.

Then Nero got up and slapped his hands together like he was clearing dust. Then he made the ‘get up’ motion to me. I obliged but a moment later I wish I didn’t. Nero picked me up, slung me over his back and started marching me towards the bed.

“Oh, Nero found his prize!” I heard Perish laugh. He came into view with Apollo sitting on his lap. Both of them naked, and yep, Perish’s cock deep into Apollo’s ass. Perish, my college professor, waved at me, his unfocused eyes bright and his smile wide.
