The ladies all looked fantastic with their hair down, no makeup, and wearing jean shorts, cute skirts, and casual shirts of different types and colors. Of course, I didn’t look directly at them, or say any such thing.

  Lunch that day was pizza, someone had ordered six pizzas for the twelve of us, and we all dug in.

  Maggie said, “The coven setup is finished. I have a good handle on what’s going on with all of you, and where we should put our first efforts. The training this morning tells me we’re very close to doing our first full coven spell. All of you seem to have your work in order, and the wards around the mansion and our well of power is strong. My own business interests are also going very well.

  “So, I’ve decided our first spell will be on behalf of Raina and Talia, I expect that will happen sometime this week.”

  Raina was cute as a button and a black-haired petite beauty. Talia was a dark-haired brunette, just a few shades lighter than my Elena’s, but also straight instead of wavy. She also had an average body, a little over five and a half feet, with a mostly proportional hourglass body, her hips a little bigger than her upper body.

  Everyone was paying attention as Maggie continued.

  “Raina and Talia submitted a prospectus for a joint business venture that I approved. They’re going to open a Java’s location in mid-town right next to a subway entrance and already have a line on the property. The closest Starbucks is over a half a mile away from that spot. As I all told you weeks ago, I’ll front the startup costs and take a twenty five percent interest in the company as their new tithe. Needless perhaps, to say, is our spell will make their business stand out to the humans and feel convenient, though there will be no direct influence or coercion. It will merely direct those already wanting a coffee to consider the place. It will also ensure anyone dishonest in the government won’t seek graft or bribery when they do their inspections and approvals. Does anyone have any questions about any part of this decision?”

  Karen replied, “No questions, it sounds like a good thing to me, and I’m fine where I am now.”

  Meredith asked, “I don’t suppose you two need another business partner. I was a barista through college, and I have a pretty good handle on how a coffee house runs.”

  Meredith was a light blonde, leggy and quite tall, and a solid eight on my personal scale as far as being pretty.

  Raina, who had to be the shyest one in the bunch nodded slightly to Talia, who took it away.

  Talia said, “It’s a lot of work and hours. Twenty five percent interest for all of us is fair, and it will give all three of us more time off once we have staff. But in the beginning, it’ll just be the three of us, from open to close the first few weeks. Six in the morning to nine at night. Once we get some night people in, we’ll work more reasonable hours and take turns opening, the other two come in at nine.”

  Meredith nodded, “That sounds perfect. What about our meal duties?”

  Karen said, “A trade, I’m willing to take over your meal duties if you take my turns at cleaning the bathrooms, dusting, and vacuuming.”

  Angela interjected, “Val and I will do that too, each of you can trade out with each of us, you can clean anytime.”

  Valerie peered at Angela, but she didn’t object.

  Talia said, “Sounds like we worked it out. We’re heading out there tomorrow to work on it, get the machines and all that. By the time we’re ready to open, I imagine we’ll be ready to cast the spell as well.”

  Meredith said, “Great, I just need to turn in my resignation, so I’ll meet you there a little late. My boss won’t want the two weeks.”

  Maggie said, “Perfect, and thanks everyone.”

  It wasn’t too long after that, when Elena and I were back in the living room chatting on the couch, our naughty one off with the coven again. More training, or bonding, or both.

  Elena asked, “How do you feel about earlier, now that’s it done.”

  I tilted my head, “The commitment to following the muses?”

  Elena nodded.

  I replied, “At peace, confident, and… committed. Excited about it too. Even if they don’t make me a champion, I’ll be satisfied in my choice, and I just know it was the right thing to do.”

  Elena wiggled closer, and she smiled when I put an arm around her.

  “You continue to surprise me, love. I’m happy to hear...” she trailed off as Maggie walked in the room.

  Maggie said in tentative excitement, “Bonnie Shenandoah is here. She’ll be with us in a moment I think, we just opened the gate.”

  “Who’s Bonnie?”

  Maggie said, “One of the other demigoddesses I reached out to. She’s sweet as sin, and a lovely person, though I don’t know her all that well. I met her once three months ago. She’s a demigoddess of Hecate, so her grasp and ability with magic is vast, and on a level that I could only dream of.”

  Elena asked, “Where’d you meet her?”

  Maggie replied, “A college party. She’s younger than me, just eighteen. A gorgeous curly golden blonde, looks like a runway model, except for her tits which are way too huge for that, and she has icy blue eyes.”

  “She goes to college?” I asked.

  Maggie bit her lip, “No more than I do. I mean she doesn’t matriculate there. She was just at one of the parties. Umm, you know, frat-house orgy. I hardly know anything about her, but I did have my tongue in her ass while taking two below, while she was blowing one herself. She seemed fun, and nice, otherwise a daughter of Hecate wouldn’t have been my first choice since the goddess of magic isn’t really aligned with Aphrodite at all.”

  I laughed, “Right, should’ve realized.”

  Maggie winked.

  Elena probably would’ve said truth, if she wasn’t cackling in delight.

  “Tantric power?”

  Maggie shook her head, “Doubt it, she’ll have loads of demigoddess power of her own to summon and manipulate mass quantities of magic. I think she’s just a cock-slut.”

  Elena totally lost it then, and she pushed against me hard as she fought to get her breath back through the cackling giggles.

  “Breathe, love.”

  Elena wiped tears out of her eyes, and said to Maggie, “You are precious, love.”

  Maggie grinned, “I love you too. Because I’m such a good girl slutty cum deposit?”

  Elena shook her head, “Although I do like that very much about you, you’re naughty and turn me on a lot. It’s the way you claim it so freely and empower yourself. That it’s chock full of blunt honesty also helps. You don’t exaggerate or diminish, just tell it like it is.”

  The two of them kissed softly, then Elena and I stood as Bonnie came in.

  I understood Maggie’s description immediately. She did look like a runway model, save that one thing. Her legs went on forever, were thin and toned, and I’d find out soon enough she had an amazingly tight pear-shaped ass. Her body was all soft alluring feminine curves and lissomly thin and graceful. Her body was lithe and tall at five feet and ten inches, except for her D cup breasts.

  Her rounded D cup tits were already large by any measure but attached to her otherwise lithe and svelte body they looked almost obscene, and the fact she was dressed in short jean shorts that showed off all of her mouthwatering legs didn’t hurt her sex appeal either. She also had on a skintight black shirt that left nothing to the imagination, and it showed just a sliver of her tight and flat abdomen.

  Her face fit the runway model motif as well. She had a flawless severe beauty with high and prominent cheekbones, a cute nose, and full lips verging on naturally pouty. Her skin was a perfect light tan, but I suspected given her bright curly golden blonde hair down to her ass and from the shade of the light icy blue of her eyes that her natural skin would be several shades lighter. Point being, it was obviously a suntan.

  Her smile was stunning, not that my other mates didn’t have beautiful smiles and teeth, but the young eighteen-year-old nubile and leggy hottie practically glowed with effervescent joy in that smile. Her icy blue eyes were warming, and they twinkled with that smile.

  Bonnie spoke in a sweetly innocent higher pitched voice which I’d shortly learn was her natural tone of voice, as she walked right across the room and hugged Maggie.

  “Oh, goddess. I thought it might be you, but I wasn’t sure. It is so good to see you. You look wonderful, and you have your own coven! Amazing.”

  I thought the hug was because they’d met before, until Bonnie let go and gave me a hug, an honest to goodness full body hug. Though there was an innocence to it as well, a joyful effervescence to it. She didn’t grind her body or anything, but she did freely push her breasts into my chest, and her lower abdomen definitely made contact with my jeans.

  “It is so nice to meet you. You’re perfect,” she said in sweet excitement, and I felt a little confused and overwhelmed by her as she let me go with a wink, and then engulfed my Elena as she said, “You too, you’re all perfect.”

  Maggie was no help. She returned my confused questioning glance with a confused look of her own. I could also tell my saucy nymph was a bit turned on, and in truth so was I. Bonnie was gorgeous, graceful, and sexy, but her exuberance and tone of voice just came across as friendly excitement.

  Elena looked confused as well, when she said, “Truth.”

  Maggie asked, “Perfect?” as Bonnie let Elena go and we all found a seat. To my confusion, she sat right next to me, hips and shoulders touching, as was her silky-smooth leg against mine.

  Then Bonnie looked confused for a brief second, then her eyes widened, “You don’t know do you? Of course not, we never really got a chance to talk that night, did we.”

  Elena asked, “Know what?”

  Bonnie giggled, “Story time? This is too funny. I never imagined you’d call me here, just on what you knew. Umm, my mother is awesome, and I love magic. Like, it’s my second favorite thing in this life. But I’m not my mother’s champion.”

  Elena asked, “Why not, if I can ask?”

  Bonnie beamed at Elena, “You can ask me anything, Elena. So, when I came into my power two years ago now, I learned that to be my mother’s follower and especially her champion, I’d have to embrace my magic above all else, including morals and beliefs. Some magic is yucky, and I never trained myself in it. You know, the evil shit. As her daughter there I have no built-in limits, and magic comes naturally to me. Anyway, that meant I had to find another god or goddess to follow,” she turned back to Maggie, “Which I did, about a month before we met, it took me a couple of years to find the right one. Mom and I still talk, she’s totally awesome and has no problem with my choice.

  “Anyway, I was sucking off some guy when it came to me. I… don’t remember his name, so not important to the story. The important part was I was totally blissed out, sucking cock is like a totally transcendent experience. You know?”

  Elena giggled, “I enjoy it too, but I don’t think I’d go that far.”

  Maggie winked, “I would.”

  Bonnie giggled in delight, “I figured you would get it. Anyway, when I actually came from him blasting his seed into the back of my throat, and I was so… transported into ecstasy while I swallowed and sucked with devotion. I knew then, who it had to be.”

  Maggie gaped, “My grandmother?”

  Bonnie nodded, “I can’t believe you didn’t know. I totally adore her, she’s the best. She taught me a lot too. I’m as fantastic at pussy pleasing now as I am at cock sucking.”

  This whole conversation was surreal, and I was as hard as a rock.

  Elena said, “So by perfect, you meant we’re perfect for you, and for each other?”

  Bonnie squealed and nodded, “I’m so excited.”

  Maggie asked, “Why’d you wait two weeks?”

  Bonnie smiled, “Aphrodite told me to wait. She said the three of you needed to get settled in together first, before I added my complicated life to the mix. I suspected I’d be compatible, hoped, but I wasn’t sure. Most people get tired of me, I can be a bit… high strung, at times. So, I was just partying and having fun until I found the right group of allies and lovers, that was the plan anyway. So anyway, I’ve been gone the last two weeks travelling around for Aphrodite, delivering messages and giving pleasure.”

  We all looked at each other. There seemed to be no reason to involve Levi anymore, not if Bonnie was a surprise champion of Aphrodite and had the same blessing to read compatibility.

  Maggie said, “We have rules for faithfulness. No empty sex, only sex between us as a family. A new member of the family is voted on after figuring out compatibility, but you already just did that. There’s also a proviso on that, those in the coven that choose to help the matriarch with tantric spells can join us for just that purpose alone, not for fun, but only with all of our permission. Is that a problem?”

  Bonnie bounced a little, which made her huge D cups jiggle in a hypnotizing way.

  “Nope. It’s what I want. I love pleasure, but I want the full package. I want intimacy and love, with my pleasure addiction. I want to be cherished and owned by a man, and gently loved and respected by a woman, or women,” she said with a wink at Maggie, “It’s not the quantity, though that can be fun for the duration of it, I want quality. And you’re all perfect for me. I’m sorry, I’m not usually this over the top, but I’m really, really excited right now, though in all honestly I come close to this most of the time.”

  Elena chuckled, “Truth. You’re adorable, Bonnie, and our man here is nothing if not insanely possessively and delightfully attentive to our needs. Want to share those with us, since you have us at a disadvantage?”

  I was glad someone asked that, because I really couldn’t, since it was my job as a man to figure that out and meet her needs.

  Bonnie said, “I already said it. I need him to cherish me, and to take care of me. Not my life really, we’ll watch out for each other that way. I need him to take care of my heart and needs as a woman. You two I need respect and gentle love. Lots of sex, obviously, but if I know Maggie that’s a given.”

  Maggie giggled, and nodded.

  Bonnie continued, after patting my knee, “You can’t do it wrong, Jack. You’re exactly what I need from a man. Giving and generous, yet deliciously commanding and possessive,” she turned to Maggie, “I’m also hoping you can help me with my outside family interest. I really do love magic, and though I know I can’t join your coven officially, I’d love to be a trainer and teacher. I could help you with your magic as well. I’m not a leader either, so there’s no threat to your authority despite my greater power, I don’t want it, suck at it even. I’m… a follower, but very discerning on who I follow, which will be you, my mates, I hope? If I didn’t just terrify you all?”

  Maggie raised a hand, “Turned on.”

  “Me too.”

  Elena cackled, “Truth, and me too. How commanding? This one likes that he dresses her and makes her cook him lunch all week when the coven is gone, but for me it’s just in bed, how independent are you outside bed, because I wouldn’t put up with it.”

  I shrugged, “You don’t need it.”

  Bonnie giggled, and looked at Maggie, “That’s so hot. But no, I can dress myself. I need to be cherished, and I need to be fucked silly, much like Maggie I imagine. I love to just be taken, for either reason. I also need to be listened to and heard, valued. I’ll return that with affection, service of my own choosing, and even obedience to the direction our personal family needs to move in, that’s his decision, right?”

  To my surprise, they both nodded.

  Maggie said, “I think that can be arranged, I know I’d love to work with you.”

  Bonnie smiled, “So, vote?”

  We all laughed, then just exchanged a glance, “You’re in.”

  She squealed again, and there was more bouncing of breasts which lowered my IQ a few points. A few more points, that is. Bonnie had my mind spinning since the moment she walked in the room.

  Elena said, “You mentioned introducing your complicated life, I assume those complications are dangerous?”

  Bonnie bit her lip, “I was dumb. Hot demigod, big dick. Our one-night stand turned into a weekend marathon, about two months ago. He was hot, knew how to fuck, and I shouldn’t have stayed that long. I knew he wasn’t compatible with me. I wasn’t looking for more than that, so figured why not have a crazy weekend and resume the search after. But he got attached to me, and I found out he was an even bigger jackass than my blessing told me, or at least that I’d guessed.

  “I figured he’d be a cheating asshole, and he would easily dump me after we got it out of our systems, I was wrong. Well, he is a cheater, but I was wrong about the second part. He told me he wanted me to come back to his mercenary company and become his true mate so he could breed little warriors, dick. Anyway, he’s been stalking me ever since, which is why I was on the move the last two weeks, because staying in one spot was too dangerous, and I couldn’t not obey Aphrodite and come earlier to ally.”

  Maggie asked, “War?”

  Bonnie said, “Ares? No, I don’t think he’s involved, or angry with me for fucking one of his men. No, it’s just one of his sons that has it in his mind to break me and breed me for the next hundred years. Unfortunately, I picked the asshole in charge of the whole damned company, so I’ve been dodging two of their eight person teams for two months now. A son and daughter of Ares, and each with a seven-person team half witches and all of them with guns and rifles. My magic is strong, but a few clips of bullets and a sword wielded by a powerfully strong son of Ares is too much for me.”

  “Save to say his name?”

  Bonnie smiled, “Yes, like I said, I haven’t pissed off Ares. I’m not afraid of him hearing this at all. That means his son is on his own. Ares has no trouble with the idea of me being kidnapped, broken, and bred. But only if his son is strong enough to conquer me. If I kill his son and escape, well then that’s fine too, his son was weak and deserved his fate. It’s very Ares.”
