Dreams Come True

"I don't care if this is a dream. I'd do anything to hold you in my arms again... go through anything for just another minute with you." Arei whispered sleepily against her lips as he continued to hold and kiss her.

Overwhelmed by her own desires brought on by her brush with death and all his siblings, Jos embraced him meeting his fevered kisses with just as much need. She pushed all that had happened and all thought of what was to come aside as she shifted positions. She let out a soft moan as she straddled his lap, carving the warmth his hands and lips sent through her body everywhere they touched. "Arei..." She murmured his name as she tangled her fingers in his shoulder-length hair and held his face against her neck where he was currently kissing and nipping.

"I love you." He whispered against her throat as he tugged her nightgown over her hips and trailed his fingers along the band of her underwear. "I love you so much..." He weaved his fingers into her loose hair as he drank hungrily from her lips. His sleep fogged mind could not bother caring whether he was awake or not. All he knew to his very soul was that she was the one thing he couldn't live without, the one thing he needed more than air. He lifted his hips with her still astride and tugged his shorts down with one hand. His thick erection sprang free in anticipation. Jos moaned loudly into his ear as his hot, hard cock pressed against her. He could feel the growing dampness of her center through the thin cotton of her underwear. He let out a husky moan as she shifted her hips, rubbing herself against him more.

Jos smiled down at Arei as she slid her hand between them and gripped his shaft. She watched as his head fell back against the headboard. His eyes were closed, and his mouth hung slightly open in pleasure. She used the tip of his length to push her panties to one side and slid the head of his cock along her wet folds before guiding him to her entrance.

Arei's eyes popped open as his hands gripped her hips. "Are you sure?"

Jos couldn't help the giggle that escaped her. "You're not even sure whether this is real or not... yet you're still concerned for me and asking consent?" She shook her head. "You really are one of a kind." She murmured as she lowered her lips to his and lowered herself onto his shaft gradually. "I love you, too." She said as she wrapped her arms around his neck and began to move. The friction caused the numerous bars lining his shaft to shift and moved freely without the tight hold of a condom holding them snuggly in place.

"Um..." He groaned, his hands guiding her hips as he shifted his own underneath her. "You feel so good..."

"As do you." She purred against his ear as she nibbled his lobe. Before long words failed her as her breathing turned to raged pants and a light shine of sweat coated her once cold body. There was no doubt that every cell of her body was now alive and awake, responding ardently to his every touch and every sensation of his body inside hers. She tossed her head back and dug her nails into the thick muscle of his shoulders as her release pulsed through her body. "Arei!"

He held her tightly against him, waiting patiently as her orgasm subsided and her walls released its tight grip on him. He lowered his head to her breasts which were pressed out proudly and leisurely suckled each before flipping her onto her back, not pulling out of her as he did. His eyes searched her red, swollen lips and passion-glazed eyes. "You're so beautiful, kitten. I could never imagine a world where you were not in it." He could see his words had struck an emotional nerve as tears built behind her sparkling aqua eyes and her teeth sank into her bottom lip. He lowered his lips to hers, showering her lips, cheeks, eyes, and forehead with kisses as he began to move slowly inside her.

"Ummm..." Jos moaned as she bit harder into her bottom lip and tangled her legs around the back of his thighs pulling him deeper inside. "You feel amazing..." She moaned as she let her hands roam his chest, arms, and what she could reach of his back.

"As do you, kitten." He whispered against her lips.

She tangled her arms around his neck and her legs around his waist holding him tightly against her and forcing him down on his forearms. "More..." She moaned against his mouth between fevered kisses.

He slid a hand under her butt and lifted her into him giving himself a better angle to draw deeper inside her. He could feel her pleasure building as she dug her nails into his back and sucked fiercely at his neck. He could feel his own desires rise and his release build with each pump of his body against hers. "Jos..." He whispered her name loving the sweet taste it left in his mouth.

"Arei!" She moaned in reply, wiggling against his tight hold on her wanting more still. "Arei, please!"

Her pleading words were his undoing. He pumped swiftly into her, the piercing through the head of his cock meeting resistance against the hard ring of her cervix. He could feel her tighten around him and her body begin to tremble beneath him. He tangled the fingers of one hand into her hair and pulled her face up to meet his as the fingers of his other hand dug into her firm ass. The second she cried out her release he let himself follow.

With four more rapid pumps, she could feel his hot seed release deeply inside her. Her eyes widened, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she held him tightly and pressed kisses along the tattoo that covered his collar bones from one side to the other. She stayed still under him as he remained buried deep inside her. It wasn't until his breathing slowed and became steady that she began to worry. To her surprise, he pulled out slowly and tightened his hold on her as he rolled to the side. He held her tightly against his body as his breathing fell into a soft snore. Her wide eyes studied his now sleeping face. {Did he really think this was a dream?!} Her mind went instantly to the hot, sticky liquid pooling between her thighs. {Does that mean he didn't mean... didn't realize he just... came inside me???} A smile curved her lips as a happy tear ran down her face at the thought of holding a tiny buddle with his beautiful eyes and auburn hair. She struggled to free her arm before tracing the lines of his peacefully sleeping face. "I do love you... so... so much..." She wiggled against him until she was high enough in the bed to place a light kiss to his slightly parted lips. Then she wiggled back down and nestled snuggly into his arms. Her mind continued playing over wistful thoughts of the future... one that would include this beautiful man...

***

The low rays of the rising sun shined through the window and directly into Arei's face. With a groan, he tried to stretch his stiff body. His brows furrowed as his eyes moved down to Jos's messy hair and rumpled nightgown as she laid against his chest. Thoughts of the wonderful dream he'd had come rushing back. His brows furrowed as he realized he was naked. His attention moved back to Jos, a sucker bite sitting proudly against the soft curve of her neck, and another poked out from the top of her low-cut gown. "Fuck..." He whispered as he ran his hand through his disheveled hair. He berated himself as he carefully slipped from the bed and retried his abandoned gym shorts from the floor. The moment he was decent, he moved back to the bed and began examining Jos's still body. Her light breathing caused a warm flutter of emotions through his chest, and the steady beat of her pulse against his fingers caused a smile to spread across his lips. He straightened her gown, noting the dried cum on her thigh and the bottom hem of her gown. His smile fell, replaced by anger at himself. He bit his bottom lip to hold back a string of profanity as he tugged the blankets up over her body. He forced his feet to move toward the door, but he couldn't help one last glance at her beautiful sleeping face before leaving the room. He closed the door softly behind him and made his way down to the kitchen. "Fuck... fuck... fuck..." He murmured over and over again as he made himself a cup of coffee.

"What's up with you this morning?" Peg asked as he stepped into the room. "Don't usually see you up and about quite this early."

Arei grunted as he watched the steady drip of coffee into the cup. "I... I think I did something fucked up last night... actually... I know I did... one way or the other..."

Peg lifted a brow as he grabbed a coffee cup and walked over to lean against the counter beside his brother. "Care to elaborate?"

Arei turned his attention to his younger brother, searching his face for any sign of contempt. "I... I had sex with Jos last night..." When Peg's brows shot up in shock, Arei stopped his words by adding. "I thought it was a dream... but she woke up last night... She... she's alive..."

Peg let out a sigh of relief. He leaned over and patted Arei's arm. "I'm happy to hear it." He arched a playful brow at his brother. "I would think you'd be more excited about it though."

Arei let out an irritated breath. "I would be had I not ravaged her last night, first thing..." His worried, pain-filled eyes met Peg's. "You saw what all they did to her, what she went through... I should have had better control over myself and my emotions... I... I'm not better than those men..."

Peg pushed away from the counter and clasped a hand over Arei's shoulder. "Let me stop you there. I know you well, brother. There is no way you forced yourself on her." He searched Arei's expression. "You are sure she was... awake, right?"

Arei swallowed down the momentary doubt that popped up in his mind as he nodded. "Yes, I checked her when I woke up. She's warm to the touch and her pulse and respirations are back to normal."

"That's great to hear... And she was alert and responsive last night?" Peg asked, studying Arei closely.

Arei nodded. "More than myself, apparently..." He ran his free hand through his hair as he removed the cup from under the coffee pot and stepped aside.

Peg placed his cup under the coffee maker and changed out the K-cups. "So, what's the problem then?"

Arei let out a heavy sigh as he watched the coffee swirl around the inside of the cup. "What's the problem? I broke the one rule I've always had when it comes to sex... I didn't use protection and I didn't pull out..."

Peg chuckled. "And? I can see having such a rule with one-night stands and passing flings, but it's Jos. Why does it matter?"

Arei's brows knotted. "Because it doesn't change the fact that I don't want to bring another child into this world and have it go through the things we had to... Especially a child of mine and Jos's... could you imagine the hell that child would have to endure?"

"What's going on in here?" Ry asked with a yawn as he stepped into the kitchen. He had the hem of his tee lifted, scratching the hard curves of his abdomen.

Peg's brows lifted with an amused chuckle. "Ah ya know, just watching our brother weigh the options and benefits of crushing some plan b into coffee or orange juice... I advised orange juice, but you know how well Arei takes advice." He shrugged with a wide smile as Ry arched a curious brow at the cup in Arei's hand.

Arei glared at them both as he took a sip of the steaming coffee.

Ry's brow lifted higher. "You know that stuff is meant for the woman... not the man... right?"

Arei shook his head in irritation. "There's no plan b in this coffee. Peg's just being an insensitive ass, as always."

Peg forged hurt. "I'm being the insensitive one? You are the one dead set on holding up some old, outdated self-made pledge..."

Ry snarled his upper lip in distaste. "The no kids bullshit, again?"

Peg nodded. "Yeah, but this time it could be a bit too late since he found the need to give our dear sweet Jos a full-service fill-up last night."

Ry's brows knitted as his eyes widened in shock. "You did what?!"

Peg held up a hand. "Don't worry, she was awake AND alive... She's apparently well once again."

Ry shook his head still in shock. "Damn... that girl has more lives than a cat..." His face slowly morphed into a smile as he walked over and patted Arei on the back. "Congratz on both accounts. I hope your seed takes root and forces you to see how ridiculous that pledge was in the first place."

"What are we celebrating in here, this early?" Poseidon asked as he entered the room, a paper lifted and reading it as he did.

Peg smiled wickedly at Arei as he answered. "Ah ya know just congratulating Arei on the possibility of becoming a daddy sooner versus later... Ya know, after he brought our dear Jos back to life with the power of that big horse cock of his." Peg sent Arei a wink as the man turned various shades of red and grey.

Poseidon lowered the paper in his hand as he studied his sons. He pursed his lips. "I never know whether to believe the three of you or just take it as teasing..." He arched a brow at Arei. "Please tell me, son, you didn't get as desperate as to defile the poor girl's body, did you? And what is this about bringing her back to life and being a daddy?" He walked over and placed the paper on the table, before stepping in front of it and crossing his arms and legs as he leaned against the table waiting for an explanation.

Arei let out a long sigh as he set his coffee down and ran his hand through his hair. "I thought I was dreaming... But Jos is back… and we did make love last night... both parties willing... unfortunately, I wasn't cognitive enough to remember to do so safely..."

Poseidon snickered as he uncrossed his arms and legs and pushed away from the table. He walked over and patted Arei on the shoulder as well. "Congratulations, son. I shall eagerly await news of a new grandchild."
