Chapter Fourteen: Of old and new

To say he'd worn me out was an understatement. He watched as I unravel under, above, and against his body, nothing but love showing in his blazing gold eyes.

When it was over, he carried me to the car, driving us home in Silence. My body tingled, my lips were swollen and bruised from the fervent got kisses, his lips left a trail of love bites on almost every visible part of my body, and his eyes never left mine.

That entire moment spent in the meadow with the ashes of my Adoptive mother, we pledged to each other to never leave again and that if by unfortunate circumstances we were to die, we'd return to each other. It was a promise that the earth witnessed and a promise I was always going to keep; it seemed like I was doing that anyway for the longest

"Can ya move yer body?" He asked as we pulled into the broken-up driveway. I looked at him like he was an idiot. "No, guess who's fault that is?" I snapped, throwing my panties in his face, a hearty chuckle erupting from him. His large hand clutched his stomach as he gasped for breath.

"Ya always were funny." He got out of the car, along his way over to my side, opening the door. I glared up at him fuming only for him to burst into another fit of laughter, holding his stomach again.

"Stop lookin' at me like that; I'll bend yer body over the hood and plow yer fertile twat again." His laughter stopped, and his expression hardened, his eyes blazing in desire. My mouth hung open a bit, and I glared. " you can try, gotta catch me first." In an instant, I leaped out of the car, running bird stark naked to my front door with him on my tail.

My fingers barely curled around the knob when his arm wrapped around my waist. My body was pressed against the door, his other hand wrapped around my throat to pull my head back.

"I've gotten faster over the years, love. Yer gotta be quicker than that." I felt his bare pelvis flush against my rump, his appendage entering my aching space.

His hips bucked as he cages me against the door, out in the open for the neighbors to see him blowing my back out.

"Sweeney---oww!" I growled, turning around shoving him away. I slapped him, his eyes falling wildly as he invaded me again. "My kind of woman." He whispered, covering my mouth with his own, shutting me up.

"You two have no fucking shame. You couldn't even wait until you got into the house." It was Nancy's voice that shattered everything; my nickname for him was going to be cock blocker

Sweeney didn't even bother to pull out; he just hoisted me up against him, glaring over his shoulder. It wasn't just Nancy standing there; it was Wednesday, Bilquis, Shadow, and one other on a motorcycle.

Bilquis had a knowing sultry smile as she watched. Silver-tongue leered at me uncomfortably, all of them getting a full view of my ass.

"Bugger off! Nothin' to see here, just making love with my wife." I blushed darkly, slipping hip upside the head before climbing down, standing before them in my naked glory.

They all stared, their eyes saying it all. "Cockblock Nancy, how long have you all been standing there?" I questioned, folding my arms across my chest. Nancy just smiled, snorting to hide a laugh. Shadow let his eyes linger on me for a moment before clearing his throat. "Since last night. You weren't here, so we waited, ended up falling asleep in the car. We woke up to your bickering." He started up at the dawn-lit sky coughing.

"Not to mention a magnificent view of that luscious behind." Nancy snickered, staring intensely at me, in turn in flipped him a bird. " I like her."

"Didn't expect a front-row seat to a porn flick.." Coughed shadows, and he walked away, getting in the car, watching from the inside.

Lugh lulled his pants up, seething, taking his jacket off to put it around my body, shielding me from prying. I noticed that Silver-tongue hadn't said anything, looking over to see him talking to two ravens that were perched with the trees.

"Heard there was an earthquake; what happened?" Wednesday turned his attention back to the group, looking at the damage before turning his gaze on me. I shrugged, cracking my neck, starting around at the damage that I caused.

Guilt hit me because I was the reason my mother was dead.

Lugh placed his hands on top of my shoulder, massaging them gently

"Why are you here in the first place?" My front set deep, my arm hairs rising, shuddering violently.

"We're going on a road trip, it seems. And wait a minute, did you say, wife?" Wednesday gave us a strange look, squinting up at Lugh, frowning. "Aye, what of it?" Lugh snapped, wrapping his arms around my waist, his chin resting on top of my head.

"I heard that she died... I didn't think you'd marry anyone else." Silver-tongues's eyes snake up and down my body, greedily eating up what he could see.

"So she's taken?" Silver tongue tilted his head at me, a smirk on his lips. This was deliberate; he was trying to see if he could get in between, I wasn't going to let him. Before I could stop myself, a silver spear appeared in my hands, the earth rumbling beneath my feet. I practically smacked Lugh away from me, dragging the double-bladed end across the ground, my lips pulled back over my teeth.

"That will be the last time you speak to me that way. I don't care how old you are; you will show me respect when it's due." My Ethereal aura exploded around me just as the ground seemed to crack. I watched in satisfaction as they all looked at the symbol on my chest, Odin's eyes widening in disbelief.

" That doesn't seem right..." He whispered, his eyes flickering up to see my two-toned eyes. They blazed vibrantly as I took another step towards him.

"Bet yer arse she is." Sweeney shouted; I could hear the amusement clear as day. "Gaea, and Khonsu..." Bilquis whispered, her eyes staring into mine. For a while, I started back, unmoving as silence fell. She bowed slightly, as did Nancy, a slight smirk on his face as his eyes flickered to Odin.

"The others are gonna get a kick out of this shit." Nancy cackled, climbing back in the car right in front of shadow, who was too looking at me in wonder.

"You're all gods, and you're acting as you've never seen one." I stabbed my spear into the ground, feeling Sweeny's Ethereal heat.

"No vibrant one, you're an impossible union brought to light. We've had old and new gods

Pair up. The earth and the moon were never supposed to touch... Neither is the moon and the sun." Bilquis looked behind me to Sweeney, her expression shifting as if it finally just clicked for her.

"She's the wife...." she whispered, not sure if she should smile or stare in disbelief; she chose the mixture between the two, and even with the odd expression, she was beautiful as ever.

Nancy and Silver tongue looked to her then back to me, confused. " She's Suibhne's Na-Nun."

They all stared at me as if I was some anomaly. "Y'all are fucking retarded." Without much as a goodbye, I walked through my front door, Lugh on my tail.
