Two sat in the back of the cab of the Graeae. Siblings, one a year older than the other, though at first glance the boy appeared older than the female; it wasnt just his height, he was near six feet, while she was a full foot shorter, but the way he held himself. There was a sort of confidence to Alexander that Briar lacked. Camp half blood, that was where the cab, driven by the Graeae was taking them. Curled on her side of the cab, Briar allowed her eyes to close, thinking about the last few hours and how theyd come to this.
Wake up my Rose Her mothers perfume more than her words drew Briar from sleep. Whimpering, thick lashes had fluttered and lifted from her eyes, her mothers face shadowed in darkness, a halo of light from the hallway illuminating her back, and her brothers form to one side. What's wrong momma? Her voice was thick with sleep, a sleep shed just found not a scant half hour ago. You need to get up and pack a bag. Come on honey Blue eyes so pale, they were almost white slipped from her mothers face to Alexander. His form in the doorway offered what appeared to be a shrug, before turning to gather his own bag.
She could pick out the details as theyd hurriedly packed, their mother offering nothing more than theyd been found. Briar and Alexander knew that that meant, they were children of gods and not just any gods, but Zues and Hades. Her own father had been Hades. Shed never met him face to face, but she knew when she whispered her secrets into the dark, he heard her and in the mornings when she woke, shed have a feeling of peace and on the rare occurrence, shed hear a voice, distant; shed known it had been her father.
It was said the year of her birth, winter had never come. Mortals had not known why, but the gods had. Her mother was the one and only human that Hades had ever loved, had ever bore a child with. Persephone was not known for her understanding in such matters, no matter how she tallied with others. Her vengeance had not lasted that year alone either; unusually warm winters had plagued humans for the next few years as well. Briar assumed it was part of why shed never seen her father Or perhaps it was Zeus doing. She didnt know the details, neither child did, but it seemed that Zeus had seduced their mother as some sort of joke. Briar had never really cared to know the facts. What she did know was Alexander was his child and in her eyes, had ruined not only her mothers life, but her fathers as well. This had caused a rift between the siblings from the moment theyd found out.
Opening her eyes, she looked across the cab between them, pale, unusual eyes focused on Alexander. A year younger than her, he was as different from her as he could be. It wasnt that she didnt love her brother She did, but it was hard to forgive the sins of the father and Briar was not perfect. Closing her eyes again, she tried her best to ignore the bickering of the three sisters and the rather sicking way the cab dashed about, avoiding obstacles. When shed tried to look out the window when their trip had first begun, shed almost immediately been sick and only by the grace of someone, had she been able to avoid vomiting in the cab. A sudden lurch had her moaning softly, eyes peeking open.Camp Half BloodThree voices said at once.That will be 70 DrachmaFishing out a handful of golden coins, she pushed them at Alexander and scrambled from the car.
Outside the air was cool, a fine mist brushing her pale face. Inhaling deeply, she could smell the forest; the sweet scent of grasses, the richness of earth, the smell of leaves decaying and of the life budding around them; it was pleasant at least. Moving to the trunk of the cab, she pulled out their bags as Alexander paid their faire. Setting both on the ground she looked towards him as the cab sped off, much like it had arrived recklessly. Briar pushed back a heavy fall of raven hair, so dark, that blues and blacks were highlighted in the inky depths of her hair, watching Alexander. Was he excited to be here? She wasnt. Shed not had many human friends, she was too shy.. A little too odd But in a place where everyone would know who their fathers were? Hades got a bad rap period, she already knew this and that was from humans. She could only imagine what other demigods would think. Like most times in their short lives, Alexander would once more be the favored of the two and Briar had long ago accepted that.
How could he not be? It wasnt even just who his father was Alexander had a charisma and a draw to him that people flocked to. Lashes lowered, Briar couldnt help but wish that for once, she had that sort of charm. Though, she knew, this would be like every school theyd ever been to. Her voice was like smoke and honey.Do you know where to go? She couldnt see a camp, but their mother had explained it was hidden. Shed also told them that it would be the only place theyd be safe. Briar wasnt even sure what theyd be safe from. Their mother had never said and no matter how she asked, no answer had come from her father.

The cab ride was exausting but Alexander had been determined to stay awake through all of it. He had tried to see landmarks, but like his sister his eyes hadn't really been able cope with the speed of the cab. Nor it's swerving motions. His stomach hurt, but he had been determined to sit and watch through it all, hoping that he could piece together a little of where they were going, and maybe a little of how to get back, but the more he looked the more he felt like he was just torturing himself. Till finally he had to give up trying as it felt like his head was about to explode.
Son of Zeus, he had been the first to find out about the family secret. It wasn't exactly easy to hide in his formative years. Zeus's children all had certain gifts, they were leaders, kings, conquerors, and he held the gift of divine strength like Heracles before him. Like Briar he had never known his father, but it went a step further. Alexander had never heard a voice calling to him like his older sister had, and never had that sensation of being watched like she did. For whatever reason it was be it the complex relationship between Hade and Zeus or that the man simply had never cared about his mortal children Alexander had never felt his half of the family. He had tried to ask their mother once about his father, and the reaction had been one of tears and pain, he had never asked about it again, and so he didn't know the details of why his father had chosen to do what he had done.
and now they were alone, in a cab driven by three mad women, and their mother who had shielded them for the last eighteen years of his life was gone and he didn't know what had found them. Just that the children of the kings were in danger for some reason. Taking the golden coins from his sister, and adding his own to the pile he counted out what they needed and handed the Drachma to the three sisters offering a quick"thank you."As he ditched the cab and got out into the fresh air of the forest. Fresh air he desperately needed and drank in for a moment as he tried to collect his head. Hearing his sisters voice he was still a little woozy at the moment but was able to collect himself and start looking around. It only took a few moments to gather himself enough to point to the marble pillars as the mist started to fade in the early morning light, and he read the words atop them. It was nice not having to translate everything into ancient greek for once and actually be able to just read the words. 'Camp Half-Blood'. He found that title rather amusing.
"I think that's the way."He said softly, he reached out for his older sisters hand now standing back up at his full height of 6'2" he wasn't exactly a beast of a man all things considered. He was more tall and lanky. Slightly awkward with long grey hair a perfect contrast to his sisters raven black. His eyes a shade of blue, with a handsome face. He wouldn't exactly deny that he was popular and handsome. He had always seemingly been surrounded by people, assumed it was part of the physical gifts that his father had left behind. He took his sisters hand and walked towards the pillers, and upon stepping through them, it was like the world transformed. One step back and they were in the woods with not a sound.
One step in and they were suddenly in a more open field a hill that overlooked the rest of the camp, a stone worked road that seemingly led the way down the hill and to a frankly massive camp ground. When he had heard the words 'going to camp' he had envisioned a small simple affair this was honestly a lot more than he was expecting. Even from the opening of the camp ground he could see the thirteen buildings arranged out, at the head of which was a massive marble building with a domed roof. The word 'cabin' barely fit it's description it was far more sterile and large like the walls of a bank."Okay... I was not expecting this."He said blinking his eyes for a moment and trying to be reasonable they hadn't exactly been hidden from the fact that their fathers were gods, so this shouldn't be a shock... and yet he was shocked.
The soft brick road followed it's way down the hill towards the camp, which now was shining in the early morning light the fog still clung to the ground, but it was fading away with the warmth of the morning and the promise of the coming day. Down the hill they could see people getting ready for their day greeting the sun and moving about. At first he thought one of them was riding a horse to come greet them, only to realize that the man wasn't riding the horse but rather attached at the waist to it."Toto I have a feeling we aren't in Kansas anymore."He muttered it more under his breath than directed it towards his sister. Though if he was being honest with himself, his sister did often have puppy like qualities she often seemed to follow him around or need his protection. It was a thought never voiced as he was sure his sister would have taken offense to that thought. Even so he put himself between his sister and the horse man.

Alexanders hand felt warm in hers, he always felt warm. It was something she liked about her younger brother; more often than not though, even being a year older, it felt like he was the elder of the two. It was times like this, her smaller hand in his as he led her towards the pillars. He went through first and Briar was close on his heels, so close that she bumped lightly into his back, her own mouth parted as she gazed out at the scene before them. He wasnt alone, when their mom had said camp, shed pictured the parent traps cabins, not the sprawling landscape of buildings and activity. The softness of her form was still snuggled into his back slightly when he put himself between her and whatever perceived danger he saw coming.
It wasnt untrue, his thoughts though she would have hated being compared to a puppy. It was hard not to follow him though. She never questioned it, the way her brother held himself, the sort of charisma he put off. That instinct to naturally lead. She had never asked, nor had it ever occurred to her to ask or to fight that pull she, like many others, felt to simply follow; being called a puppy however would have hurt her feelings greatly. Peeking from around Alexanders from she frowned as the Centaur neared them.Chiron was a splendid example of his kind, though not what most of human culture would have thought of. Rather than the chestnut brown that most Centaur had, his lower half was that of an Appaloosa, black and white, the colors speckled together. His skin was a warm brown, likely from hours under the sun and his hair was a rich black, though it lacked the luster of her own. Stepping from behind Alexander she watched as he slowed from a gallop, to a canter, then to a trot and as he neared them a walk. Briar and Alexander, I presume?His voice was a rich timber and his smile was friendly.
Briar nodded, her voice soft as she answered him.Yes Perfect! Follow me, I will show you your cabins He started off, and spoke over his shoulder.My name is Chiron and I am the activities director here at Camp Half BloodHis hooves made a soft clipping sound on the brick as he walked, his voice warm as he told them about what to expect from camp. Much of what he said made Briars heart drop. Archery, fighting, team building and she was pretty sure he said lava pit. Trailing behind them for a moment, she looked at her brothers retreating back. Another place for him to shine and for her to fail. Inhaling deeply she sighed and fought back that feeling she got the first time they went to a new school every time. There had been a glimmer of hope that this time might be different. Catching up she heard Chiron say they would head to her cabin first.Your father built it for you overnightHe smiled over his shoulder at her and she paused, blinking. He had?
It was a bit of a hike to get to hercabin, it was set away from the others nestled in the dunes of the beach, edging the woods. It was sleak, modern and even though shed never met him, reminded her of the voice she sometimes heard. The structure had been built into the dunes, the seagrass rustling in the morning air gently, the walls of either side of her cabin were made of dark glass, and a sharp jutting pool pointed into the woods, made of dark stone. Stepping away from her brother and Chiron, her finger tips ran along the edge of the pool, but not before she caught sight of something black within.What... What is that?She pointed to the moving blackness, frowning. Ah Your father, despite the camp rules wanted you to have a dog.Coming up behind her he laid his hand on her shoulder, speaking softly to her.He is not to leave the cabin, he may look like a normal dog, but I am almost certain he is a hellhoundAt her worried look he chuckled. I doubt he will hurt you, as he was sent to keep you safe. But hellhounds are fiercely loyal and ferociously protectiveHis hand tightened on her shoulder gently and even from where they stood, the dog growled. Chiron released her immediately, but kept his eyes on her.Your word Briar, that it will stay here. She nodded and spoke, her voice smokey"I promise"and he let out a breath hed been holding.
Chiron understood the reason Hades had insisted, she was likely going to be his only childEver. Much like the hound waiting for her inside, he was protective of his little girl. Looking to Alexander, he smiled and motioned them onward.Now for your cabin
gpt
Hearing about the camp he was enamoured with everything, other half gods, Pegasus flying, rock climbing, war games. He could actually see himself enjoying his stay at this camp, at least for the activities, and he was excited to meet new people, but first they had to go see where they would be staying.
Cabins? He swallowed for a moment not really sure why he didn't like that. Growing up their family had never really been rich the god of wealth didn't exactly pay child support nor had his father to be fair. For most of their lives they had lived in close quarters, sometimes sharing a room separated only by a makeshift curtain as they moved from house to house. Walking the path it was tucked away from the rest of the cabins, and that made his heart sink a little further. The pool was a pleasant surprise though, so at least they would get to relax here. He paused for a moment at the introduction of the dog, for some reason it made him nervous."Wait, why can't I stay with Briar?"He asked almost naively.
"Well you two do share a mortal parent, and I suppose such a transition is a difficult time for you so some leniency could be allowed, but well... try to walk up to it."Chiron's voice was actually a touch curious about what would happen. Alexander shrugged off the curiosity and stepped up to his sisters Cabin, and the moment he crossed the line into cabin 13's property line the hell hound went ballistic. Far more than a growl the dog charged at the window teeth bared and howling in rage and anger, stepping back quickly the dog immediately sat down and it's tail wagged happily."I'm afraid the blood of Zeus has never been very welcome in the underworld. The hound doesn't seem to like you at all."
"Yeah..." Alexander's voice became more quiet. It wouldn't be so bad right, Zeus had prepared his cabin. He took a deep breath and the two of them walked back to the head of the camp site,cabin onewas ostentatious, it stood a full story taller than the other Cabins, it's grounds were marble white pristine. He chuckled for a moment seeing it's size."What, is this where you tell me I have like six more half brothers, this place is massive." Thinking that he would at least have a few other campers to be around and not stay isolated.
"Oh no, Zeus has not produced a mortal child for over a hundred years, but I was assured he prepared it for your arrival." Alexander's smile faded as it all started to sink in. He stepped up to the large temple. Pushing the large doors open, he looked inside the interior and felt his heart truly sink. The only thing inside the massive structure was a statue of his 'father' standing tall in all his glory holding a golden shield and his lightening bolt aloft and proud the only part of the room not covered in a thick layer of dust. The ceiling far above had paintings of storm clouds above him, but it was cold, drafty, and empty."Um... there's no bed in here?"
Chiron seemed surprised for a moment. "Ah sorry, I'll make sure one is brought in for you. I really should have checked but with an entire cabin over night we... I'm sorry."
Alexander shivered for a moment and tossed his bag inside the large marble structure. watching as dust rose up from the ancient undisturbed ground."This is fine."He said for a moment feeling a dark chill. Hades had given his sister a dog that would make sure wouldn't be able to step a foot into her cabin, his own father hadn't even bothered to fetch him a sleeping bag. This is fine, this was how it always was."It's pretty drafty in here, could you make sure I have some extra blankets?" He asked softly, Chiron simply nodded.

Trailing behind them, Briar felt the same sort of unease. While she and Alexander didnt always get along and at first glance, they didnt seem close, she did love her brother. The dogs reaction to him had tugged a frown to her lips and her pale almost blind colored eyes shifted from it to him. Shed have little in the way of friends here; she wasnt trying to be pessimistic, just realistic. Briar was aware she lacked the confidence that Alexander did, the strength they both had, but she rarely used her own. A small voice whispered to her. If she wanted to, shed burn brighter than all of them. She was unsure if that was her father or her own knowledge, either way, it wasnt something she desired. She wanted to be liked, who didnt? But Briar knew who she was and she wanted to be liked for who she was, not who she could make herself become.
Following behind them, Briar stopped short of the rather large building. She bit back a snort and slipped her hand back into Alexanders. He likely didnt need the comfort as she did, but she offered it to him without thought. The building, was honestly exactly what she expected from Zeus, but she didnt say that. Instead, she gave his hand a small squeeze as he tossed his bag in. You can stay with me, Alex.. I will put the dog in the other half.Tipping her face up towards him she offered a shy smile. Or we can camp in here for the night?
She could see the difference between the two homes and couldnt help but wonder why. Was it some sort of test for her brother? A way to show him he could stand on his own, without the aid of his father? It was a quirk of Briars personality. To see the good in others or their motives. Even Alexander received this, it was in part why they were not so far distant. She knew it was his fault, the gifts that he seemed to naturally exude but she couldnt completely hide her jealousy no matter how she tried. Briar shifted her hand in his, fingers lacing together.
It would only be a matter of time before Alexander was the center of attention. It was his way. A smile curled on her lips, soft, and a touch sad. She didnt think Alex did it on purpose It was just part of who he was, part of his fathers legacy desired or not, though she never once hear him complain. It might be the last night they could be together without a horde of people chasing after him, assuming that the span of the day didnt change things. Who wouldnt want to be friends with him? Shifting closer to him, Briar laid her head on his shoulder. Jealousy aside, she got it, even if she hated it at the same time. Chiron excused himself, with the promise of finding more blankets and then continuing the tour.
Briar smiled up at him, a true smile. Remember, when we were little and mom yelled at us cause we wanted smores? We tried toasting the marshmallows over the stove It made a huge mess and then the fire?They had been eleven or twelve and in one of their better periods together, something that had been missing the last few years.And we tried to put it out with the towelShe giggled softly and bit her lower lip.Alex, dont leave me behindThere was a smallness behind her voice. They both knew what would come. When theyd lived with humans, they had always had each other but now they were with others like them.

Looking into the cold room of cabin 1, he hated it. He wasn't sure why but the longer he looked at it the more painful it was, maybe it was the fact that the statue was so pristine that it had clearly been dusted, or perhaps enchanted so that dust never fell upon it in the first place. When he felt his sisters hand enclose in hers, he tried to hide the shuddering in his body. The gesture meant everything in the moment because there was genuine care, but he couldn't allow himself to show the anger, or the fear that she would leave him. In his mind he had to be the protector the leader, the confident steady hand that was always there for her to lean on, and everyone else would expect the same. The son of Zeus couldn't afford to be insecure or allow himself fears of being alone. He looked at his sister a steady smile across his face after he had repressed all the other emotions and focused on just being that charismatic leader that everyone needed him to be.
"Thank you."He said softly looking to his sister and then back to Chiron."That's okay with you if I stick with cabin 13 for now while we adjust?"In truth he wasn't asking a question.
Chiron sighed, leave it to the son and daughter of the kings to change the rules around on their first day."If your okay with the dog being around than honestly I can't stop you from entering one another cabins, your maternal lineage gives you a freedom few others have. Normally those who are claimed can only enter their own cabin, and the rest go to cabin 11 Hermes, but."He pointed to the property line both of them had passed, and it wasn't like she had been struck by lightening the moment she had stepped into his cabin, and he hadn't been pushed away from hers."Leave it to the prince and princess to change the rules." he sounded a touch amused, but shook his head and moved on.
"We didn't turn off the burner before we tried to smother the flames with the towel, so the towel just caught fire and made everything worse." He said remembering the event for a moment as she brought out a peaceful memory of the past. He smiled for a moment dumb kids, being dumb, no gods no expectations, just trying their best in an ensuing panic. "Mom grounded us, but she also took us to a campsite for a day, and taught us both how to make a campfire."He was a bit more bemused at that point and closed his eyes he could recall the sweet smell of smores for a moment.
"I do hope mom is okay, she was so panic'd."He knew she wasn't, but in the end... that only meant she was in the underworld really. She was back with her first love in some form or another. He could only hope Hades cared for her. He turned towards his sister a soft smile gracing his face."Stay close to me Briar."

Offering the support cost her nothing and she shifted in closer to him, eyes moving to Chrion. A smile tugged at her lips at the comment. Prince and Princess. The titles were not wrong, but shed never thought of it like that, had Alexander? There were times that Briar didnt think highly of Alex, thought it was never malicious; in this case, she didnt think that it had gotten to his head just yet, but in a camp full of people who knew who their fathers were? Something made her feel like it was only a matter of time.
The giggle that left her was sweet and she bit her lower lip, head resting against his shoulder as she recalled their first camping trip. It was a good memory, though that smile faded and she nodded some.Me tooShe had similar thoughts as Alex, if the worst had happened she might be with her father Though Persephone was still there. Briar couldnt help and wonder howd that work. She knew her father had loved her mother, she was proof of that. Hades love for her mother was a complicated bag of worms, one that her mother had been less willing to share. Briar had always just assumed it was too painful. Hades had never once looked at another, Persephone had been his everything; how her mother had caught his eye was a mystery.
Letting the thoughts dance away, she looked up to Alexander and returned the smile. Her baby brother always looked after her Rising on her tip toes she brushed a kiss to the corner of his mouth.AlwaysHand still in his she looked around. The kids, though that didnt seem like the right word, for everyone was their age or older, looked at the siblings as they passed them on their way to breakfast.Are we meant to wait here?Chiron had said hed come back
I wish I was more like you. Her pale eyes had come to rest on Alexander again. You always look after me, but shouldnt I be the one looking after you?Briar smiled when he looked at her, shy from being caught staring, her thoughts prompting her to question him.Alex?Her mouth opened and she paused before closing it again, a shake of her head given, dark locks reflecting the morning light with the movement.Never mindChirons return saved her from any prying into what she might have asked him, which she gave thanks to silently.
gpt
The kiss was a gentle reminder that even though things often got tense between them they were never fully against one another. He loved his older sister, hence his need to protect her, but honestly, he wanted her to stand on her own. Being called a princess only made him think that she could do better, be stronger, but the truth was they still weren't sure what her godly gift was. While his strength was the obvious thing that made their family noticed, she had always seemed average in his shadow. He wished that one day she could maybe stand on her own feet but for now this was enough.
He shrugged unsure he saw others heading towards the pavilion for breakfast and Chiron soon returned, but not before an awkward moment where his sister was about to speak something"yeah?"He said curious about what was on her mind, only to be told it was nothing. everything he knew that 'never mind' was something that girl's used to deflect when something was wrong.Just tell me what your thinking, why does it always need to be a mind game?He sighed and shook his head. Chiron's arival made it easy to deflect the moment.
"Breakfast is being called for, I had to set somethings up so you two could be properly announced." He said walking them over to the pavilion where people were waiting a small fire in the pit that never seemed to really go out. Chiron was quick to walk center stage."A few announcements and a seating change."He said."First announcement we have two new members at camp. Which brings us to our seating change, Cabin 1 take your seat."Chiron jestured to the center table.
Immediately surrounding them other campers started to whisper about what was going on. Cabin one had been abandoned for a very long time, hushed tones and rumors abound as Alexander raised his hand signifying who was the son of Zeus. He turned to look to his sister,"I'll wait for you to sit before I eat."He said stepping forward and letting out an awkward breath as he was the first to be called on. He was going to have to get used to that he supposed it was a privilege considering who his father was. He pulled out his chair at the center table and sat down.
The plates provided him with pancakes, suryup, and a feast of fruit much to his surprise along with a glass of Orange juice basically everything he could have wanted. Chiron gestured to Alexanders right. "Cabin four if you will take your seat, and then we will continue in our usual cabin order till we get to cabin 13." At that another set of much louder rumors came among them, with many staring and pointing at This strange girl from a cabin of a god that hadn't been at camp yesterday.

There had been no mind games, it was hard to ask questions that could possibly change everything between them. If shed asked and the answer had been yes, she was unsure of how to even start doing that and if it was no Briar saw the look and sighed softly in turn, looking to Chiron. Listening to Chrion speak, Briar blanched a nifty trick for someone who was already pale, her skin becoming nearly alabaster. Chiron seemed pleased with his idea and Briar gripped Alexanders hand tighter.
The pair followed him to the pavilion and Briar wanted to do nothing else but disappear. Crowds normally were not her thing, but a crowd of demigods? The hands shed been holding was gently pulled from her grasp as Alex lifted his hand. Nodding some, she watched as he sat, the room abuzz with whispers and curious eyes. When it came to her turn, she was the only person still standing and the whispers started again. Breathing in, Briar held her breath as she took her seat to the left of Alexander.
Shifting in her seat, Briar lowered her head looking at the food. She wasnt hungry She could hear the whispers and she knew she could have tried to stare them down, been a bad bitch rather than what she was, if it was in her The simple fact was it wasnt. Briar normally liked who she was, when she wasnt being stared at and talked about. Some were more subtle, others less so.
I heard Hades cheated on Persephone its why the winters have been all fucky Humans think its because of global warming, when its really all because of her
Looking to Alex out of the corner of her eye, she smiled softly. She could tell he was a little uneasy with all of the attention, but she doubted anyone else could see it. To others, he likely seemed to be handling this all very well and she found herself feeling envious of his ability to do so. But, she could try.. Couldnt she? Lifting her head, Briar tucked a lock of dark hair behind her ear and smiled, the curl of her lips shy.
Somewhere from across the table she heard a girl sayOh my god, look at her eyes! They are so freaky...
gpt
The gossip wasn't really anything new. Everywhere they went they had been faced with this kind of rumor spreading. He had long accepted it as a fact o life for them, but at the same time hearing someone say his sisters eyes were freaky made him glance up from his food. He quickly sought out the face of who had called his sister's eyes freaky, and once he had her, a woman from the Athena cabin, he made a note of her face so whenever they had a war game he could smash it in. At the same time he also wasn't raising his voice to defend her in the moment as he was still assessing the other campers.
He knew that some found it a little off putting looking at his sisters eyes, some people have asked her if she was blind. He personally liked the shade of lavender that her eyes held, he found them unique and pretty. He thought for sure that this place would have been a little more empathetic. They were all the children of demigods they all had to know they didn't choose their parents, and she was the daughter of a King, so it annoyed him that they didn't have the same respect for her as they did for him.
"I bet he shoots lightning."One of another cabin a male spoke for a moment, judging from his seat the ares cabin?"I want him on our side come the war games, Son of Zeus? No way he doesn't have some serious fire power."
That actually got a chuckle out of Alexander people wanted to recruit him, he just looked out into the pavilion."Sure you can join my team, but it would be me calling the shots."Coming from any other camper on his first day that may have been a touch too boastful, but considering this was the son of Zeus a few campers gave off calls and whistles. The smile Alexander had after that moment as he sat back and pulled a grape from his plate said one thing.Yes I am your god, long may I reign.

Alexander wasnt the only one to hear the comment about her eyes. Briars lashes lowered and she could feel the tears that threatened as her eyes grew hot. She wanted to flee.. But to what? Her cabin? It wasnt home and it had none of the familiar trappings of her room, so the comfort to be found within the cabin was seclusion and distance from the people that surrounded her.
There were others talking about Alex, and so rather than flee she tried to listen to what people were saying about him. Bitterness settled in her chest, as she listened to them. Of course they all loved him, all wanted to be his friend or at the very least the strengths he could provide. Things never changed, even in a new place, new people. She looked to Alexander as he spoke and bit back a sigh; there was the cockiness shed come to expect.
Rising from the table, she ignored eyes as she left the pavilion. There was likely more they were meant to be shown, she knew that.. But this camp was not for her. She didnt have the strength Alexander had She didnt possess the sort of other gifts the others did. She was a demihuman, that was more human than demi. She couldnt help but wonder why she didnt, but accepted it as just what was, at least for now.
Briar wandered without much of a destination in mind, following a pathway at random. It felt better now, not being around the others. Not feeling their eyes, their hurtful comments And to a point to be away from Alexander. He hadnt even stood up for her, she had expected him to but why should he? Being her little brother didnt mean he had to. She should have stood up for herself. The little flash of anger shed felt for him fading. The jealousy and bitter feelings didnt, but she was more accustomed to those than she should be.
Looking up, Briar found herself within the boundaries of the wood, the path having ended. Slipping further into the trees, Briar closed her eyes. This was something shed done since she had been little, though it served no real purpose and was doubtlessly not one of her gifts, more just an unusual skill. She could sense things before brushing into them. As she wandered, she began tosing, the sweet clarity of her voice echoing in the woods.

Watching Brair walk away from the pavilion Alexander stayed, a desire to learn more about how the camp functioned made him stay away from his sister. He also recognized when she needed a bit of space. It was far too exhausting having to fight every single one of her battles for her. He had a second goal however his eyes kept wandering over the crowd, learning faces, and names. Talking to people getting a first impression of the other campers."Y'all mentioned war games, when does that take place?"
Alexander spent a bit of time gathering more information, and then after a few conversations he found the girl from the Athena cabin who had called his sister a freak."Athena was Zeus's favorite daughter right? Tactics, strength and war. Wanna show me what you got?"That single question sparked a flurry of motions, and before he knew it the entire camp was suddenly a rush with activity, as the two were basically escorted to the camp's arena everyone wanted to know what the Son of Zeus could do on his first day, and apparently the girl from Athena's cabin was a big deal celebrity in duels.
Offered a sword and shield, spear or bear hands the girl boasted that he could take whatever he pleased. So he grabbed the shield. "Never used a sword before don't wanna put my eye out, but this should do." The bronze shield was almost 20 pounds, to him it was like holding a grape. He was a little worried about breaking the woman in this bout. While he didn't say he was doing it for his sister he knew full well why he was about to destroy this woman. Chiron officiated the start of the match, as she took a spear.

As Briar's song echoed through the woods, a beautiful and slightly haunting melody she would find akidamong the woods. Bright blond hair, and a rather cute set of yellow eyes, he was a few years younger than her, maybe about 16, but his face hadn't fully fleshed out. His face hadn't been immediately familiar among the crowd at breakfast, but wearing one of the orange camp half blood shirts. He was sitting up in the trees for the moment, but when she noticed him he swung so he was hanging by his knees."Don't feel too bad about being a freak. A lot of us have eyes or some weird thing that don't really line up."He said pointing at his own bright yellow eyes."By the way your brother started a fight with that girl. they are going to the arena, thought you might want to know. Shame he missed your song."

Looking up she caught sight of something golden in the trees, frowning she walked closer to him. As she neared, he fell, dangling by his knees, the mop of blond hair falling slightly."I am what I am, I don't feel bad about that"Her voice was soft but she offered the boy a shy smile"I wouldn't change even if I could". He was younger than she was, by a few years at least. Her eyes shifted away from him, looking out into the woods. Oh Alexander... He was standing up for her and a small part of her was comforted by it. "How do you know that he started a fight?" Her head tilted to the side, tucking her hair behind her ear to keep it from falling into her face. A soft blush colored her cheeks, not many heard her sing. She wasn't even sure Alexander had before, she often sought solitude before doing so. Her songs were a way to release the feelings she was afraid to share, normally with Alexander.
Looking back up to him she offered a small smile."Would you show me the way to the arena? I am afraid I ran off without getting the full tour" her smile grew softly, husky sweet tones adding"Please"Briar did better one on one and it showed."I am Briar, by the way. What's your name?"Her smile blossomed, and a small dimple winked at him.
Her eyes shifted back out into the woods and she couldn't help but wonder why he decided to defend her like this. She loved Alexander, but this was more than just for her. She didn't mind, in fact the fact he might gain something from defending her made her feel a little better that he was. Alexander. His name was whispered through her mind, reaching for him, calling to him. Briar had done this for as long as she could remember; she didn't expect that he had ever once heard her, but it made her oddly enough feel closer to him. Something that in their darkest times, when they were not on speaking terms, gave her solace.
Their spats had started for many reasons on both ends, though it often seemed silly after, neither able to understand how it started. Those times though, Briar felt her most lonely. She loved him though and a small part of her knew it wasn't just love for her brother. It was something she often dismissed, the other feelings she felt. It was crazy, but even as she was jealous, envious of him, she was one of the ones who flocked to his glow. Desired and needed to be near him.

The kid nodded when asked to take her back to the arena, and when she asked how he knew that the fight was going on he just shrugged. "I can see it." He said slightly amused. He pushed himself off the branch flipping down and landing on his feet."Hello Briar I am Zavior, Cabin eleven. The Hermis Cabin takes in all the demi-gods who's parents have never claimed them."He gave a slight nod as he walked her through the woods.
When the two arrived at the edge of the woods Zavior stopped, and pointed towards the small coliseum. It stood apart from the cabin, directly south from the woods where they stood, a three story complex, about the size of a small baseball stadium."I can see just fine from here, I don't really like crowds so this is as close to that place as I'm willing to get. I'm sure I'll see you around though."He gave her a slight wink. "I'm sure you will do great things here if you get the chance." When he stepped behind her to go back to the woods he seemed to vanish without a trace other then the soft breeze his body had blocked moments before.
~~~
It had been a long time since Alexander had gotten into a fight. He had never really gotten the chance to join physical sports due to his strength raising questions outside of camp. His reflexes were rusty, and his sense of distance wasn't as sharp as his opponents. Only having taken a shield he had chosen to be at a disadvantage but he hadn't realized just how great that disadvantage would end up being when he was fighting against a daughter of Athena, one who had spent more time in the camp, had more experience in combat. Even so, with no training and no sense for combat Alexander had no physical wounds yet, he was fast and strong enough to block the blows that came towards him though his movements were clumsy his strength made him move with an ease that made up for it.
He kept watching the movements of this girl, trying to learn and anticipate the next strike and so far it was keeping him safe. There was a moment his concentration was broken, the hairs on the back of his neck stood up, a shiver ran through his body as the wind seemed to carry his name just for a moment he could have sworn he had heard Briar speaking to him. His focus lost in the moment his eyes scanned the crowd trying to find his raven haired sister for a moment wondering if she was watching him. It was in that moment he felt his legs get kicked out from under him, his entire body knocked sideways as he hit the ground the audience giving an 'oof' sound as commentary for the solid hit against him.
human
He could see it? That seemed a bit odd, but even so Briar didn't mind. She didn't have any gifts yet, if ever, but she Knew Alexander had the gift of strength. It really was no different. "That's pretty neat"here was an almost sweetness as she commented on his gift, her voice honest. It was neat."It's nice to meet you Zavior. Is it common for gods not to claim their kids?" For a moment, she wondered if her father had considered not claiming her. Claiming her had brought a host of issues, but she did feel loved by him, having never met Hades. Had he not, she wondered what her life might be like. Would Persephone have known? ... Would Zeus? Her heart sank for a moment, a deep ache settling around it. Would Alexander have still been born? They had their differences, but never once had she wished he didn't exist.
Looking towards where he pointed she nodded."I see. Thank you Zavior."She paused as she stepped away from him and looked back. Her smile was shy, but warm as she nodded."Thanks again! I hope to see you around" She lifted a hand and strolled down the sloping lawn to the Coliseum. Her spirits still felt high after her wonder through the woods and her meeting with Zavior. She had no idea that she'd distracted Alexander and as she pushed through the crowd some, she came to stand near the edge watching the fight.
The oof had happened well before she'd reached them and her pale, lavender tinged eyes sought out her brother. Alex was still in the pit and she breathed a soft sigh of relief. Her eyes took in the girl who had said her eyes were freaky. Hands linked before her as she watched the two of them circle, and her eyes rose to meet Alexander's as the girl's back was to her. She smiled at him softly, before letting her eyes fall back to the girl.
Do you see how her position shifted?Her mind asked curiously. She wants you to think she will attack. Her words were meant for no one else. She wasn't trying to reach out as she had before. How do I even know this? A frown tugged at her lips and wrinkled her brow. She'd never fought before in her life, such nuances should have been out of her reach. A figure stepped up beside her and she turned to look at her. She was a pretty blonde girl, her eyes tracking the fighters with rapt attention. Briar was about to look back to the fight when the girl turned to her, eyes wide."Were you looking at me?"
A frown settled on Briar's face once more and she offered a small nod."Yeah"The girl's face seemed as puzzled."Like me? And you can hear me? No freaking way!" Her voice had been near yell with excitement, but no one turned to look at her and Briar tilted her head some, confused. The thought ghost did cross her mind, but she wasn't see-through or shimmery, nothing. The girl looked back to the fight."He's yours? He has good footing. You can see some of his strength too, but unless he catches her off guard, she will likely win"
gpt
Zavior shrugged."Drop by cabin eleven sometimes see for yourself."He said inviting her to find the answer about the gods unclaimed children on her own. But either way he vanished all the same.
Alexander took a breath before he got back to his feet, pushing off the ground using his shield to bounce himself upright and steady himself bringing his arms up as he shook off the stun from the attack. He blinked again hearing his sisters voice in his head. He watched her footing now a little less surprised as he heard the connection and words between them, her advice made sense. She's trying to keep me back, she knows if I get in past the reach of her weapon it's over for her.She wants to stay on the offensive. He thought back but wasn't even sure if this strange connection went both ways or if he had just hit his head a little harder than he thought when he had hit the ground the first time.good idea, I'll bait her in and knock her off guard.
If his sisters assessment was right then the best thing he could do for himself would be to rush in. Take away the advantage of her reach, and push an attack. He shifted his footing and pushed in with a burst of strength of speed. As she brought her spear up to brace against his charge. Alexander was essentially playing chicken with a deadly weapon charging directly at the woman's spear hoping the more experienced warrior would take the bait as he left himself open. As she thrust forward he planted his feet quickly skidding to a stop as he grabbed the spear at the neck.
For a moment it almost looked like he had been stabbed, their movements covered by the dust they had kicked up in the dirt. But as it settled She was trying to pull the spear away from Alexanders grip. Putting all of her strength to try and retrieve the weapon, Alexander's arm barely even moved as she tugged at the pole arm. He pulled her in closer. Bringing the bronze shield down on the wood he smashed the spear to splinters, and smashed the splintered wood against her face. It was the first time his fist had ever impacted against another human's and the feeling wasn't as satisfying as he had expected it to be, feeling her nose break on impact she was sent backwards her hands going to her face to clutch her bloody and broken nose.
Alexander looked at his fist clutching her broken weapon, hearing the cheer of the crowd, her blood dripping from his fist. She may not hear his voice, or hear his words in the moment, but she would feel the rush of adrenaline as the crowd gave their adulation, the feeling of power as he got to live out the victory of his first battle. The pride that ran through him for his first gladiatorial match. The brutality of the act was lost in gains of the crowd. But his eyes did seek out her as he spread his arms out wide towards her basking in the cheer of the crowd, but showing that this was actually in some way for her.

Zavior's suggestion she drop by cabin eleven sometime as given a nod to. It seemed odd, and perhaps to the parents understandable... Though Briar was more inclined to disagree that the reason would be worth it. They were not just normal kids whose parents didn't want to claim them, they were demigods. She held any parent to a higher standard, but a God? Perhaps it was the idea of divinity brought with it certain responsibilities, much like a monarch bore. The movie Ever After came back to her mind with the quote 'I born to privilege and with that come certain obligations.' She felt that applied to thegods; unfair perhaps, but no more so than not claiming a child as yours.
Too much was happening... The odd girl beside her and then the thoughts of Alexander, for she'd know that voice anywhere. She hadn't answered his thoughts, her face schooling into blankness as she watched her brother in action. The thoughts she'd picked up? How would she have known that. Her eyes cut to the girl beside her, who turned to her and smiled brightly. Had she heard her thoughts? She was staring at the girl when Alexander ended the fight. Turning back she saw him look at the remnants of the spear in his hand. She could feel what he felt, that adrenaline pouring through his system, the elation that the cries of the crowd produced.; the pride he felt as he stretched his arms wide, turning towards her.
Briar felt conflicted. Yes, he would acknowledge her, but would he tell others why he'd won? She offered him a small smile, congratulations Alexander, and as people began to pour from the sides, she used their momentum to slip away. She was proud of Alexander, more likely than not, he'd not have needed her help and she was still unsure how he could hear her, or how she'd known what was happening... Not to mention what for all intensive purposes she believed to be a ghost, had been the one to offer the suggestions. Biting her lower lip she didn't run away this time, which for Briar was a small win in itself. She waited near the exits, unsure what would happen next. Would their tour continue?
gpt
Alexander decided quickly that he wouldn't talk about the strange occurrence. Briar's thoughts in his mind had been a strange development, but it was also too useful to give up that kind of information. If the two could work out how their communication worked they could act as one another's eyes and ears in almost any situation. Since this camp seemed to rely heavily on it's war games, and battles having a tactical boon like their new found telepathic gift between one another was way more valuable when kept secret for as long as possible. When he did speak it was too the looser of this match as he helped her onto her feet, and started walking her towards the medical tent on the side of the arena he whispered to her."Never insult my sister around me again, or it won't just be your nose next time."He gave her a sturdy pat on the back as he handed her over to the other campers who could look after her and treat the injuries she had sustained."Better luck next time." He was much louder with that waving her good bye.
Walking out of the arena and away from the still rambunctious crowd, though more than a few tried to talk to them, he pushed through them, giving only a polite 'next time' or 'We will talk later' As he was still interested in the other campers, but felt he needed to get back to Briar. When he found her it wasn't actually hard. He put a hand on her shoulder giving her a proud pat on her shoulder."What was that?"He was energetic smiling at his older sister ear to ear. He quickly walked with her away from the arena not wanting others to overhear the everything that he was going to say to her."Telepathy? when did that start happening?" He felt like he wanted to pick her up, he was actually very proud of her with this new gift.
"And since when were you able to read someones movements like that? Briar you are surprising me today. Your finding your gift!"He was excited, and still a bit energized from the fight, letting his legs carry him as he walked with his sister around the camp, deciding that the rest of their tour could be a little more self directed, he wanted to speak with her more now that the two of them were alone together.
human
Looking up as Alexander joined her she smiled softly and gave a small shrug. His smile was infectious and she felt her own growing in return. The slight hurt that might have been there fading for the moment. Allowing him to guide her away she tipped her head and shrugged again."Today I guess" She bit her lower lip, worrying at the tender flesh as she thought. "It's not the first time I have sort of reached out to you. It is the first time you've ever heard me though"Casting her gaze up at him as they wandered aimlessly. "What was the first thing you heard?"Had he heard his name whispered through her mind?
The next question he asked however gave her pause."I.. I am not sure that was me. Did you see a blonde girl with short hair next to me? She was taller than me?"If he hadn't, then she'd seen a ghost? No one else had responded or looked at her when she'd excitedly shouted which already led her to that conclusion. Could she hear ghost thoughts? Even hearing Alexander's thoughts was a stretch towards the odd. Seeing ghosts as the daughter of Hades made sense, the thought projection though made a little less.
Shaking her head some she reached up and touched his face, fingers a gentle caress."Thank you for standing up for me Alex, but you know you don't have to right?"She smiled softly and let her hand fall. "That was sort of what I wanted to say before. When I said never mind" She stuck her tongue out at him playfully."And you got all huffy." She was still teasing him, Briar's voice sweet."The gist of it at least. I do appreciate it though" Briar was unsure if this was the time to bring up her protecting him. He didn't need that, she knew... She did still wonder if it bothered him to be the protector though.
But Alexander seemed happy. She didn't want to take that from him for the sake of her own curiosity.
gpt
Alexander considered everything that she was saying, and thought back to the arena when he had searched for her in the crowd. A tall blond would have stuck out like a sore thumb across from his shorter raven haired sister, but he couldn't recall her standing with anyone."The first thing I heard was you calling my name, and I don't remember a blond, when I saw you from the grounds of the arena you were alone."He gave a shrug, the thought of ghosts wasn't the first thing he would have jumped too, but his sister was the daughter of the warden of the dead so really anything was possible.
He rolled his eyes when his sister started teasing him. It was natural to want to protect her. He was stronger than her, his gifts had come more naturally to him. She was finally starting to get hers, but they still weren't very physical. As thrilled as he was to see her start to blossom, she was still a rose, a beautiful but delicate flower. He looked at her for a moment, they were both adults."I know I don't have to stand up for you, but your my sister. I don't ever want you to feel like your alone." He reached out and gently poked his sisters nose."It's easier for me to do the heavy lifting for you."

A ghost then. Briar wondered if she should tell Alexander this gift as well. He knew who she was, who her father was. On one hand, he was thrilled for this gift and seemed happy for her, he shouldn't be shocked if she told him of her other new gift, right? She was the daughter of Hades, it would make sense. On the other hand however, she didn't know what it would do to her if he looked at her the way the others might. Death scared most people, it was an unknown even to those who knew of the existence of the underworld. Demigods were not immune to that fear. Nodding some she smiled softly. She would tell him tonight she decided, she didn't want to hide this, but it was reasonable to be scared, wasn't it?
Chuckling she wrinkled her nose at him."Well when you have herculean like strength, I suppose that's true"His words touched her more than her quip let on. This is why, no matter her jealousy, her bitterness that rose against any desires she had personally, that she still loved him. Alexander could sometimes be so sweet. It also might explain why her feelings shifted occasionally to things they likely shouldn't. It had become a habit when such thoughts strayed that way to simply brush them aside and like then she did the same now.
"Anyway, I was in the woods when I thought your name. I met someone there who told me what was going on"Briar lifted a hand and pointed towards where she'd come from before turning back to him."I have done that sort of thing a lot though, odd that here suddenly you can hear, don't you think?"It was true, for as long as she could remember she would think things to him. She'd never expected him to hear her. It was like watching a horror movie and telling the main female lead to not go into the basement where there was blood trailing down the stairs. It wouldn't save them, but you did it for your own peace of mind. She could remember a few occasions where she'd seen what would happen before he did. One winter rushing outside to put the bins out like their mother had asked them too, she'd seen the patch of ice on the ground before he had. Briar could remember thinksAlex, the ice! And the next thing they had known he'd been flat on his ass.
Chuckling at the memory she shook her head some, a smile lingering on her lips. Looking up at him she rose on her tiptoes to boop him back."I still think it's unfair your so tall"A small playful pout on her lips as she lowered back to her heels. "So what now? If the tour was meant to continue I think we derailed it."Looking around she noticed an obstacle course with kids running through. Biting her lower lip she sighed softly."I never wanted to go to summer camp as a kid because I knew I was no good at this kinda thing"Her voice was soft, but it didn't hold any sadness or bitterness just acceptance."You will excel here, I am less sure I will."Making a soft hmmm in her throat she smiled at him."They can't all be physical activities right?"Briar was trying to find a bright side of Camp beyond Alexander.
gpt
When she mentioned that she had reached out before he thought back over a few things but could never recall any particular event where he had heard her like had today. He could recall a few times where he wished she had warned him about certain things or thought she needed to speak up before he did something stupid or painful, but not once had he heard her voice like he had today."A lot has changed since yesterday."He was trying to be calm about it but the truth was yesterday they had a comfortable life with their mother it hadn't been perfect, but he had friends he would never see again, people he would miss, and they still had no idea if their mother was safe or not. What had found them, or what the damage had been before they had been basically thrown into the cab and wound up here where they had to restart alone."Maybe I can hear you now because there is less noise than there was before. Or maybe your gifts are just starting to wake up, no way to know what's going on for sure."
He chuckled at the comment about his height and smiled when she booped his nose. She always seemed so beautiful when she smiled, in these softer moments of their relationship thoughts would pop up from time to time, small curiosities, like what it would feel like to kiss her. He had one particular fantasy that came and went in passing dreams, ripping off clothes, and other dumb ideas. He had learned to ignore those thoughts and dreams. He chalked it up to the fact that he was son of Zeus, a god that didn't exactly ask permission of beautiful women, and his sister well... she was beautiful to him. He almost missed the commentary about the camp or the obstacle course. His attention had been on her eyes."They are training."
"I spoke to some of the other campers at breakfast. The reason they have war games here, the reason why so much of it is physical is because the gods think a war is coming. Apparently an oracle gave a prophecy about the return of the titans, and a rise of the monsters. This is a safe place, but it's made so that the children of the gods can be ready to fight for their parents."They both knew that monsters were attracted to them, they were the children of kings, there had been various run ins from time to time with the odd creature that wanted to eat them, but he had usually dealt with those things."Not everything is so physical though, brawn alone would not slay a titan."A creature that could heft a mountain would not go down easily.
"You heard what Chiron called us right? The Prince and Princess, we are children of kings. I'm sure you will find your place here."Speaking of which as they stood their was a familiar fall of hooves on dirt that distinctly stood out.
"Ah this is where the two of you have gotten too. I still have much to show you, if your done hitting other campers, and disappearing into the woods I'd like to show you two around a bit more."
human
The reassurance Alexander offered her was appreciated, though she wasn't sure what all she could bring. Her talents for the moment were being able to speak to him telepathically and seeing dead people. She wasn't sure how well that would work should titans rise once more. There was hopefully time before such a thing would occur though. If no other talents presented themselves, perhaps she'd know how to use the two she had to help them. Briar wasn't fond of the idea of offering nothing to such an event."I suppose that makes sense. I will try my best to find a way to fit in"Briar offered him a shy smile, tucking a lock of ebony behind her ear she looked toward Chiron as he approached. His words rankled her slightly but rather responded verbally, Briar nodded.
Chrion's tour brought to light that war wasn't the only thing they prepared for. There was arts and crafts, canoeing and volleyball. True there were more physical based activities than not, like the wall climb, the armory and forage. There would be no shortage of things to do, the strawberry fields and amphitheater intriguing to her. More and more however it felt like the camp had once been meant to be more of just that. A camp, likely a summer camp, like the ones Briar had never been eager to attend. As the tour drew to a close, she decided to ask."Chiron?"Her voice held a curious lilt to the end, indicating a question.
Turning around, Chiron smiled slightly."Yes?"Her eyes held his as she considered how to ask the question."We were sent here because our mom said we'd been found."He nodded, waiting for the question."Yet, it's the middle of a school year. From the way you've talked about the camp, it was meant to be just that."Chiron shuffled slightly to the side as Briar continued."Alexander said the Gods think a war is coming and that's why we are all here?"There was another option than the one she was implying, that the war wasn't too far off. It could have been all these kids whose mothers or fathers didn't want the hassle of dealing with a half blood god. Their mother had always called Alexander and Briar her treasures. She had never seemed to regret having them, even if it meant living in the worst parts of town or moving every few years.
This brought another question to her mind."Is.. Is our mom okay?"She didn't know how Chrion would know, but was there any harm in asking? She looked to Alexander and slipped her hands into his, cuddling into his side slightly. They were both worried, things... had not seemed good. In the past Alexander had been able to keep them safe with his strength, but that hadn't been an option this time? Like Alexander, Briar couldn't help but wonder if her mother was with her father. The mere idea brought tears to her eyes and she turned her face against his arm, tears brushing against his arm as she fought the feeling of crying.
gpt
Chiron took a moment to look at the two children, his face one of somber contemplation as he tried to think of how best to tell the two what was going on. Alexander's hand went to his sister's back offering a gentle hand that pulled her closer to him. He hadn't wanted to ask that question personally, but now that his sister had voiced those fears he had felt since they were shoved into the taxi he had to keep strong for her and be that pillar of support that she needed.
Chiron's shoulders slumped he had never been great with bad news."The truth is, we don't know yet."Chiron gave a sigh."Hermes is leading the investigation about what happened, but it's been less then a day."His eyes looked at Briar."Your father wanted you here a long time ago, he wanted you protected and cared for, but your mother ever the stubborn one, wouldn't allow it. She doesn't have the blood of a god, so she wouldn't have been able to stay with you. She knew that protecting the two of you would be difficult, and we tried to give her every resource we could, but the camp is rather small, and the gods are often busy. We don't know what happened exactly, but your mother is missing. We believe that she was kidnapped in an attempt to get to the two of you."
Alexander noticed that Chiron was only really talking about Hades, and his sister, the unvoiced question on his lips was plane for the centaur to see. Chiron looked away sheepishly for a moment. For now Chiron avoided the question."We believe that she still lives Charon, your fathers Ferrymen, has not reported her to be among any voyaged dead."He looked at them both more seriously now."For now, you two are here and you are both safe, which is what your mother wanted. As I said Hermes was asked to personally lead this investigation, if he requires help he will reach out to us, but until then let the gods handle this your mother was a very important person Hades will not let her stay missing for long." Alexander snapped, his voice was louder and more brunt as he spoke out this time."And what about Zeus, what is my dad doing in all of this?"
Chiron looked away."I don't know, no one has seen Zeus in sixteen years. It's a secret, but at this point hiding anything from you two might cause you to do something stupid like run away. Zeus has been missing for a very long time, Hera has filled in as leader of the pantheon in his absence."

Shifting some, Briar leaned into Alexander more. She knew he would be her rock in this storm, but this was one he couldn't weather for them both. Her hand gave his a squeeze. Everything would be okay right? Even.. even if she was dead, she'd be with her father. She waited as Chiron tried to think of how to tell them, though the initial news wasn't bad. Missing didn't mean dead right? The focus of Chiron, as he told her her father had wanted her here long ago had Briar freezing. He.. had? Their mother had never said anything to the effect. Turning her face into Alexander's arm she took a slow deep breath and nodded once, nose nuzzling along his arm slightly before she looked back to Chiron.
The change was plain for them both to see and she looked to Alexander frowning softly. She could read the question too and gave his hand another squeeze, laying her head to his arm, giving all the comfort she could. Briar had begun to open her mouth, to ask a question when Alexander snapped. Shivering softly she ran her thumb across his palm, a small, soothing touch as they waited for Chiron to answer.
She didn't speak aloud, but offered a small piece of solace that she knew was unlikely to help him. It explains a few things Alexander. Like why he never spoke to you or your cabin isn't ready. I don't know why no one thought to tell you. I don't think keeping it from you was right.And Briar didn't. Frowning softly she looked to Chiron once more."Did our mother know Zeus was missing?" Silently she prayed no one had told her, that it would give Alexander a reason to be upset with their mother. Chiron looked uneasy once more before shaking his head no."No. Hera commanded no one tell her"There was an emphasis on the word her.
Persephone had not been the only jilted wife, the major difference was Zeus was known for such things. She could list off several stories and even children that were known to be his offspring without much thought. However what had happened to the king of the Gods? Had he vanished of his own accord? And it seemed like the knowledge wasn't well known. While she had him there, it prompted one final question."Sorry, one more question?"Chrion nodded once, waiting."Why would a god not claim a child?"
gpt
Alexander thanked her for the feeling of her hand, the soothing touch helping him to stay sane in the midst of all the new information or not wanting to lash out. When Briar thought to him, she gave Zeus the benifit of the doubt, and that didn't sit well with him. He didn't think it was so simple. Hearing that Hera had commanded no one tell their mother at least made it so that his family handn't held this secret from him.Don't give him the benefit of the doubt, You have heard the story Leda and the Swan he was never gonna take home father of the year.
Chiron hadn't expected that question, but his look was still that reflective sad as he thought to it. He sighed for a moment as he looked at Briar."The gods can be... difficult. They are often childish. In some cases a god may not want to be tied to a mortal family, their life span is infinite while a mortals life span can often be fleeting, wonderful, but mortal."He walked with the two siblings."the life of a demigod can be rife with dangers, and troubles for those that a god does claim it can be made even worse, so sometimes it is out of a sense of protection, other times a god may not know they are a parent at all. We have been around for hundreds of years and the reasons I have heard, the justifications can be as varied as a mortal parent who chooses to leave their child at an orphanage. Our camp is a safe place designed to care for any child of the gods, regardless how their parent may feel about them..."Chiron had one more thing to say on the matter. "There have also been times when a god may revoke their Childs, denouncing them and removing them from their family. The gods can not remove their natural born gifts, but they can revoke their blessing and protection, it has only happened a few times in our history."
Chiron was leading them back towards cabin thirteen at this point he figured that the two siblings should take a few hours for themselves."The gods may not be physically with us at all times, but they do send their signs, they offer quests to their children, and gifts on occasion."Chiron pointed at the dog in her cabin as an example of a gift."They work in many ways to protect their claimed children, and both of you were claimed. Even if Zeus is not present, and has not been seen for a long time, Alexander you are his child, and his protections will be with you for as long as you live. I'm going to let you both unpack, this has been a long morning."
Alexander stepped over the property line and the dog immediately started to growl and bark like a mad beast, he just slumped down outside of the glass of the cabin and sat down for a moment. Looking at her place it was at last far more modern than any of the other cabins, which meant it would be much more comfortable."That's a lot to take in."He said softly looking to his sister."Can you lock your hell hound up so I can go inside?"

He wasn't wrong, she knew that. She also knew the story of their own mother, at least... what was widely assumed. Briar didn't like thinking badly of anyone, it was something they had to earn. Zeus was the OG playboy, that was to be sure, but she honestly thought if he could have been helping, he would. If nothing else for his own personal image. It would look bad if he didn't put in as much effort as Hades, just as it looked bad that he didn't prepare Alexander's cabin. None of this was shared, rather, instead she turned her head and brushed his arm with a kiss.
The feel of her lips didn't linger but were replaced with the softness of her cheek as she turned to Chiron, though even then she lingered for only for a moment as he began to walk, explaining why a god might not claim their children. Much of it was along the lines she had guessed, but Briar was still unsure if she agreed. Being a God came with responsibilities, whether they liked that or not. The latter gave her pause though, revoking the protection? She wondered what one would have to do in order to have such a measure taken against you.
She looked at the gift her father had left her, the dog lay sunbathing for the moment near the glass. She wondered if Zeus had been present, if he too would have given Alexander a gift. Briar held no love for the king of the gods, but she did feel, somewhere deep down, that he cared for Alexander."Thank you Chiron''The siblings watched him leave before Alexander stepped away, setting the dog off. She nodded and bent to kiss his hair softly."Yeah, I will move him. Give me a moment"
Leaving him outside she went inside, the moment she stepped within the dog quieted and came to her, tail wagging."Who is a good boy?"Kneeling Briar stroked the dog's flank before she cupped his face, kissing his nose."I will need to think of a good name for you, but until then we need to have a talk"She rose and walked away from the main room, the dog following. "Alexander is my brother, you can't hurt him"The dog gave a small whine of protest, looking back towards Alexander. "No, I am serious. If you hurt him I will be cross"
Briar was treating the dog like it was intelligent, honestly feeling that he was. "Stay on this side for a little bit and if you feel like you can behave you can come say hi later"The dog sat with a grumpy look on its face, before flopping onto its side dramatically. Moving to the other side of her cabin, she knocked on the glass gently. before kicking her shoes off and collapsing on the couch. It had been a day and it wasn't even noon yet.

Feeling the way that Briar showed her affections, cuddling up to him, kissing his arm he felt much more calm just from the touch of his sister. He knew he shouldn't have gotten as much comfort from the touch as he did. When she eventually pulled away to put the dog in his place he sat outside thinking over that strange pull he had towards her. The way she calmed him down so easily, and the strange feeling of his sisters lips against him and how he wanted more of that feeling. A few different fantasies scrolled through his mind, but once the dog was calm enough that he was certain it wouldn't try to harm him, he walked into the cabin.
Taking off his shoes he dropped onto the sofa beside Briar, before he flopped sideways. His head landed softly in his sisters lap as he let out a long tired sigh that evolved into a yawn as he stretched out and made himself comfortable. Just resting on her lap for the moment. He closed his eyes and felt like he could honestly just fall asleep on her. The two of them had spent the entire night in the back of the cab run by the fates, it was a bit much to be honest to come to grips with everything. He opened his eyes and looked up at his sister for the moment, that pale skin, with her lavender eyes he smiled at her.
"Okay that's a lot to take in right now."Their lives had completely changed over night and even this preliminary tour of the camp ground had made him so tired that he honestly did want to sleep and just use his sister as a pillow, or cuddle up to her if they went to an actual bed. That thought seemed both invitingly warm, completely impossible. "Zeus is missing, our mom is missing, we can telepathically speak to one another now."His tone on the last one was more warm and teasing."Did I miss anything?"
His bag was still over in cabin one where he had thrown it, but she had her stuff, and the cabin was comfortable. Far more modern than perhaps any of the other cabins which all seemed rustic and more in keeping with a summer camp. This felt more like a home Hades had prepared for her, knowing that her dad had wanted her here a long time ago that made more sense."Your dad gave you a pool."He said with a slightly amused look towards her."How are you feeling with all of this? I kinda... just want to take a nap right now."
human
Hands slid through his soft white locks, the silvery strands falling through her fingers like water. Briar smiled at him softly as he shifted to look up at her, fingers still playing with his hair while her freehand came to rest on his chest. It never occurred to her that most siblings might not touch quite like they did, the head in her lap was innocent enough, but her touches perhaps pushed the boundaries of what was normal. One or the other might have been overlooked but both? To her this was normal though, they had always been like this. The statement made her sigh softly and lean back, eyes closing for a moment."It really is"A lot was an understatement she felt, but Briar knew what he meant. Zeus, their mother... she bit her lower lip and leaned over him, wincing slightly. "Maybe one thing"
Taking a deep breath, Briar tried to play it off like a joke."I see dead people" her fingers in his hair stilled for a moment."The tip.. I gave you. I don't know how I knew what was happening, but there was a girl next to me who seemed shocked I could see her. I think.. It was from her."She frowned softly, watching his face for his reaction. When he didn't freak out, she let out a breath and leaned back."I know it's silly, you have never made me feel like a freak, but telling you that was scary. I knew you'd be well.. you..."She smiled and leaned down, rubbing her nose to his in a little Eskimo kiss.
Her head turned towards the pool and she nodded."Yeah, I noticed that this is less like a cabin and more like a home." She bit her lower lip and looked down at him."Did you wanna stay here with me? I think I'd miss you if you stayed in your own cabin"She smiled softly, knowing she would, but also knowing he might not want to be stuck with her either."A nap actually sounds amazing. I feel.. sort of numb I guess. Like this isn't quite real. We will wake up to mom and the smell of her cooking" Gently she pushed his head off her lap, rising she held her hand to him."Let me introduce you Cerberus"She saw no need to not name the puppy after the guardian of the underworld."Even if you don't stay here, it will be best if he doesn't freak when you come in. And then we can nap. I saw stairs leading below to what I assume is the bedroom"
Her fingers laced with his own and she led him toward Cerberus, who gave a halfhearted growl before wagging his tail. Rising to his haunches he watched the two come closer."Cerberus, this is Alexander" Releasing his hands she gave him a small push towards the dog. As she did she gave Cerberus a warning."Bite him and you sleep outside" Slipping past them both, she peeked down the stairs. She couldn't see much beyond deep what seemed like black carpeting."Yeah it looks like a bedroom.. I think"

When she quoted a horror movie he actually chuckled a little, that seemed so much like Briar to try and sugar coat the news of this new somewhat alarming power with a joking reference that made everything feel normal. He shook his head no he wouldn't have made his sister feel like a freak over this. He felt the way she touched him, and relaxed deeper for a moment."Your dad is the warden of the dead, I mean I was hoping for something like manifesting cash Hades is the god of wealth and having a sister that prints money would basically set us up for life."He countered with his own little joke, but honestly this was a good thing."The ghosts advice was helpful honestly, and if you can see and speak with the dead that just gives us one more way to get information over anyone else."
He groaned as he was pushed off her lap and had to get up, but he also agreed none of this camp felt real to him just yet. Holding his sisters hand however made him feel more grounded. When she mentioned the dogs name, he blinked."You know this dog could very well be one of Cerberus's puppies right?"It wasn't impossible for hades to have given his daughter one such great beast. But at the same time he didn't even know if there was more than one Cerberus. He walked up to the black hound and looked at him for a moment, a small tension and trepidation towards the animal as he held out his hand towards the beast keeping his hands clenched tight for the moment before the dog finally seemed to just accept that Alexander would be a perminant fixture in this cabin. As Alexander pet the dog he chuckled a little. "I'm personally more of a cat person, but I'd much rather stay here than that train wreck of a cabin that Zeus left behind for his kids. there isn't even a bed in that one, just a large statue holding a lightning bolt."He shook his head.
Leaving the dog he walked back towards his sister, and saw the bedroom. "Hades certainly has elaborate taste."He said bemused as he walked down the stairs to the basement bedroom. The carpet was plush, and the bed was large, but honestly it was a bit creepy, it did have the added benefit of being rather cool since it was away from the sun and dark for being away from outside light sources. Honestly if he wanted to say anything it was that this place was kind of comparable to a kink dungeon with it's elaborate layout chandalere the mirror over the bed. It was like something out of a novel so elaborate and rich with contrasts of black and white all around. Alexander sighed he wasn't about to tell his sister that his first thought was a kink dungeon, but when he picked up the camera on the night stand he chuckled."I think your dad thinks you'd make a good model... I don't disagree."He said holding up the camera and pointing it towards his sister for a moment, putting it down after.
"You're okay with sharing the bed right?"Alexander pulled off his shirt a bit teasing if he was being honest. He pulled it over his head slowly making sure to show his abdomin as he faced his sister. He dropped his shirt on the floor, before undoing his belt. He was a bit sweaty from the battle against the daughter of Athena, and maybe he was taking this a bit too far, but he still undid his belt, couldn't very well sleep in jeans after all. He wasn't exactly trying to strip for his sister, but that was the result as his pants slowly slipped down his long legs, revealing white body hair that seemed to match with his actual body fuz."I can never really sleep with clothing on, do you mind? I'll stay in my boxers."

"That would have been awesome" She agreed with a smile, feeling more relaxed; Briar had known Alexander wouldn't make her feel like that girl. He never had, not even once... But there was still some fear that couldn't be erased when she had decided to tell him, the fear that one that, the only other person in her life that she truly cared about would look at her with disgust or fear. her mother never had, nor had Alexander... The only two who mattered to her. She could face a lifetime of others doing that, but either one of them doing it would break her. Nodding she agreed. "It was oddly perfect timing" her tone slipping to playful as well once more"She was kickin your ass"Giggling they headed towards her new puppy and she looked to him."Okay I know might not like that, but that would be awesome"
Briar had always loved the stories of Cerberus and to have a puppy with three heads? Would be freaking awesome. Chuckling she petted Cerberus as Alexander slipped down the stairs past her. His words caused her to blink. Kissing the wet nose of Cerberus she headed down the stairs. She blinked at the darkness of the room, and the clear elegance. Shaking her head she shrugged some. "I mean it's really nice.. But a bit much"She did like the room, but it was a bit too ornate for her. Laughing she held up a hand blushing."No one wants pictures of me Alexander" Shaking her head she giggled again.Her a model? Nah... The thought was not shared as she nodded."Well I wasn't gonna make you sleep on the couch. The bed is big enough for both of us"
Though the suggestion made her squirm a little. She always seemed embarrassed when Alexander wasn't fully dressed... a lot of that dealing from her own feelings. Biting her lower lip she looked away averting her eyes, cheeks flushed."That's fine"Briar shifted in place, she didn't actually want to look away but staring at your brother almost naked wasn't okay.. She often slept the same way he did.. Briar also knew she couldn't sleep in her clothing, not if she actually wanted to sleep. Slipping her shoes and socks off Briar turned away fully. She lifted her shirt over her head and let it fall to the floor, thanking whoever had been watching over them that she was wearing a bra, she didn't always. She even was wearing a matching pair ofpanties. They were both pale pink, with strawberries over them here and there and ruffles along the edges. A little red bow was nestled between her breasts and just below her belly button. The last item was her pants, which revealed the matching undies, wiggling her jeans down over her ass and off her legs she stepped out of them. Briar had a slender body, with soft curves where a girl should have them, her limbs shapely and free of hair. The pale pink fabric stretched over her body like a second skin and formed against her breasts.
Turning to him she blushed deeper and climbed into bed. They had once upon a time, slept in the same bed a lot more. That had changed as they had grown older and this was the first time in forever."I don't like sleeping in clothes either"Her voice was almost flustered and she turned away from him. A small thought wormed into her mind. What would it feel like to fall asleep in his arms, their body cuddled close. Safe she bet... and for a moment, she was jealous of any girl who would get that pleasure, and the security of Alexander holding them.

He disagreed with her because he wanted photo's of her. He couldn't voice that thought of course. It was one of those selfish thoughts that a brother really shouldn't have about their sibling. When she turned away from him, he had to suppress a shiver that ran through his entire body watching as her shirt was pulled up, and her pants pulled down. He saw those feminine curves, and had a difficult time averting his eyes. He chewed his lower lip for a moment. He was still tired, still exhausted he wanted sleep, but there was another want and desire now. And it got stronger when he saw her face him. Her eyes averted from him, but he could not give her the same curtesy he wanted to drink in the sight of her. The bra and panties the way they hugged her breasts and hips, the way her figure swayed when she got into the bed.
It took him a little longer to crawl into bed with her. moving under the covers he laid on his back for a moment. He was having weird thoughts run through his head now. He was focused on the dark cieling up above him for the moment laying down and wanting to sleep but sleep wouldn't come to him so easily when there was something he wanted that was within his reach. His mind was delving into thoughts and desires that he couldn't articulate, he glanced over at his sister's form wanting little more than to find her lips in the darkness, to kiss her and press her into the bed. He closed his eyes for the moment trying to deny those thoughts a little longer. There was a growing silence between the two of them now, and he wasn't sure if it was because she was asleep or not.
In the end he knew he couldn't continue to lay on his back and do nothing, something had to change now. He tried to be gentle of course. pulling himself closer to her, then moving her, grabbing her with steady, reassuring hands that he wanted this. Pulling her gently towards him rolling her over without a word, so that her head could use his shoulder and chest as a pillow her body pressed to his torso, His arm wrapped gently around her, cuddling up to her. He kissed her forehead. reassuring her. He wanted more, but this was the most he was willing to take at the moment, besides he was also exhausted, and at the moment he needed her."Snuggle up with me."He said softly into her ear, his hand tickling her side affectionately. If anyone were to walk in on them they would have looked less like siblings in this moment and more like lovers tangled up.
I want you briar.The thought rolled across his mind, and into her like thunder across the planes, and what's more in the moment he didn't even realize his mind had touched into hers and broadcasted that thought. His mind had always been his sanctuary where such thoughts could be safe and never spoken. The new connection that was open between them exposed him, made his mental fortress vulnerable. And that thought rolled with all the desires he had, the want to feel her naked body embraced with his own, the desire to hear her cries of lust, and passion. He wanted to feel her, and of course he felt guilty for all of those desires."Have a good rest."He said trying to be content with what they have in the moment, not yet realizing that in the moment he had already unleashed the storm.

A swirl of emotions played though her as she'd climbed into bed. She had missed the way Alexander's eyes had lingered on her body. Briar felt, rather than saw Alexander climb into bed; the mattress shifted with his weight and the covers pulled towards him. Closing her eyes she willed sleep to come, but it did not obey her demands. Instead her thought moved to a place she tried to keep them far from, knowing that while the gods were insestual, there was little doubt the mortals would be quite so understanding. That was all that had ever kept her from even daring to consider such a thing. The taboo, that humanity instilled to love in such a way. Briar was pretty sure it applied to half siblings as well, even if they hadn't shared a mother, they would have been cousins.
She felt him shift, the bed dipping as he moved closer and then she felt his hands. For a moment, Briar forgot how to breathe. She allowed him to roll her so she faced him, her head pillowed on the crook of his shoulder and chest, her warm breath playing across his skin. Heart racing, it took her a moment to relax against him, her form slowly softening. Briar closed her eyes as his lips brushed her forehead, and she shifted a little, getting comfortable. His words were soft, and the words she spoke echoed them."Okay"Her arm stretched across his chest, and her form shifted slightly so more of her soft form pressed against him. Briar felt guilty for taking advantage of his innocent desire to snuggle, for finding a different comfort in his arms than Alexander intended. And then, across the barrier of her mind she heard his voice.
I want you Briar. There was no doubt whose voice it was as it thundered across her mind and it was not alone, there was no way for her to think those four words were anything else. Desires Alexander felt hitting her like an electric shock. Her mouth opened in shock and for a second time, Briar stiffened and tried to relearn how to breathe. It.. wasn't one sided? She nodded some and snuggled closer, less afraid of crossing some boundary, but now very unsure how to handle the shocking revelation that Alexander wanted her the same way she wanted him. She was older, the thought came as she had let her mind wonder to what it might be like, to give Alexander his desires."Sleep sweet"She shouldn't allow them to do something she knew was wrong.
It had been clear he hadn't meant to share the thought and so she decided, no matter how they both felt to ignore the desires. Neither of them felt them alone, but they should.. Shouldn't they? They'd be around others their own age, perhaps develop feelings for others... Somehow Briar knew she wouldn't and even as sleep slowly claimed her she hoped, even knowing it would hurt, that Alexander found someone else to have those desires for... Jealousy spiked though her and she knew she wanted it to be her, so badly.. But it was wrong...
As they slept, she curled into him further, limbs tangling together. While they were awake, they had both been more or less careful with how they'd laid. However, in sleep, nothing barred their bodies from acting on how they felt.

Waking in a tangle of bodies and bed sheets. Alexander felt more rested now than he had in years. It didn't hurt that the sight he woke up with was his sister's body warm and pressed to him. A tangle of messy sheets. Her breath against his neck for a moment he considered pressing his lips to hers. A hand brushed her long black hair, but in truth he didn't want to wake her up. He did everything he could to be gentle with her body, letting her sleep for as long as she needed as he pulled himself away from the entangled sheets and his sisters body. As much as it pained him to do it he knew it was the right thing to do to leave her as comfortable as she could be.
Walking upstairs still in his underwear Cerberus growled softly as he checked the time by looking outside for a moment. It was dark outside, but he could see the faint orange of twilight, if he had to guess probably around 5 or six in the morning, counting off his head that meant the two of them had slept for.... a long while it had only been mid afternoon when they had gone for a nap and it was now the next day. Cerberus's growl got a little louder a reminder that he wasn't completely trusted."Hush dog, if you bark you'll wake her."It was the honest truth and he didn't want anything to disturb Briar before she was ready and well rested. It did take him a bit of time to find the cabins private bathroom. Walking in he finally dropped his last piece of clothing.
Stepping into the private bath he took a hot morning shower. Letting the steam run off his body for a bit. He felt more rested than he had in days, he kind of wished that all of his mornings could be like this, that somehow he could continue waking up beside Briar, but that was just a dumb fantasy. He knew eventually he would have to go to his own cabin, and give her privacy. He was her guest as long as he was here, but the Hades cabin was warm, inviting it felt more like a home than anything Zeus could have prepared. He stretched washing the sleep and weariness as well as sweat away from his body, when he emerged wrapped in a towel he looked out at the glass window, seeing his bag had actually been transported from cabin 1 where he had thrown it. There was also a note on it so despite only being in a towel and the warmth of the sun being more than an hour away he opened the door of the cabin stepping outside to grab it and pull it inside as quickly as he could.
Opening the note it was an explanation of the days schedule. breakfast, archery, swordplay(beginners), lunch, arts and crafts (he let out an audible snicker at that one) Pegasai riding lesions(beginners class), and dinner. All in all it was a pretty big day, and it wasn't like yesterday where he could just break a girls nose and say peace out for the rest of the day, he was pretty sure this schedule was mandatory for the two of them. So with nothing else to do but wait till breakfast was called he started to get dressed, made a small cup of coffee, and sat down on the sofa to wait for his sister to rise from the dead like a zombie and watch the sunrise.

Dreams rarely stayed away from Briar's sleep; often fantastical, colorful and clearly nothing of this world, the memories of such dreams faded before she woke. When Alexander gently extracted himself from her arms and even one of her legs Briar had made a small whimper, eyes still closed as she rolled over. Now effectively in the middle of the bed, her dark hair blending into the black sheets. The dream slipped away, though a feeling lingered within it. Asleep her defenses were down and his name, like a whisper echoed through their minds. She wasn't awake, but even now, she felt the loss of her brother from her bed.
Perhaps fifteen more minutes passed before Briar slowly climbed her way from the darkness of sleep and back into the waking world. Yawning she turned, looking for Alexander. A small frown on her lips. Sitting up, the sheets pooled around her waist and a hand rose to her hair pushing it away from her face. Awake, those walls were firmly back in place as she considered what she'd heard last night. It had been the last thing she'd been thinking about when sleep had claimed her, it was only natural it was one of the first upon waking. Briar was sure her idea to act like she'd heard nothing was for the best, though some guilt came with her decision. She had always felt guilty for her feelings for her brother, knowing them to be wrong and doubting that he felt the same. Now, she knew, but Alexander was in the same boat she had been in; before they had shared that boat unknowingly. Was it wrong to allow him to perhaps feel the same guilt alone?
Sighing Briar climbed from the bed and headed up the stairs, a blanket pulled around her torso before leaving the bedroom. Her hair was normally pin straight, but in the mornings, it liked to go this way and that way."Morning"Her voice was warm as she came up behind him. Her breasts pressed against his shoulder and she snagged the cup of coffee, taking a small sip, sighing. Blushing she pulled back, having fallen into habits from before knowing. Fuck. This wasn't going to be easy. "I'm going to go shower" her voice sounded off but she left before Alexander could question.
In the shower she wondered what she was meant to do. If she stopped doing what she always did, it would be obvious. They had always been a bit closer than they should, she knew that. If she didn't change, could she deny the desires to see exactly how far she could push things? Her entire shower was filled with these confusing thoughts and even as she was drying off, she was no closer to an answer. Briar felt further in the muck than she had been. Because if she constantly just began to blush, Alexander was likely to notice. Double fuck. Wrapped in a towel, she hurried back through the two main rooms and down the stairs.
Dressing quickly in a pair of pale tealpanties and bra, a pair of comfortablefaded jeansand one of the orange tee-shirts of camp. Heading back up the stairs toward him, Briar was french braiding her hair away from her face, the raven locks falling down her back in a single plait."What were you looking at before?"She flopped on the couch, a hand across her stomach as she laid along the plush cushions.

As soon as his sister had come up to him, it felt like something was slightly odd about it. There was absolutely no way he could pin it down, and perhaps it was his imagination but the feeling of how she pulled back so suddenly made him feel like something was up. But when he looked at her he realized she was still only wearing underwear at the moment which made him quickly avert his eyes. He told himself that was why she had pulled away from him. Because it had been her breast so very close to his head, and not because of anything he had or hadn't done."Okay have a good shower." He tried to be dismissive, because for a moment his sisters breast had been pressed up against him and he found it all much more appealing than a brother should.
When she came back he was still sitting where she had left him, looking out at the morning sky as it turned blue. He turned towards her, and smiled, he couldn't help but think about how the simple look worked for her. She asked him what he was transfixed on, and he sighed."There are no computers, no T.V.'s the only thing you can see from this direction is the beach, the horizon, and a bit of the forest. If we had grown up here we would have died of boredom." He was trying to joke, but in truth the view was relaxing, and he didn't exactly need the modern comforts of daily life to survive, he hadn't been addicted to his phone at least not that much, and since they had always been on the move before friendship with people other than Briar were fleeting things, that he had gotten used to leaving behind."truth is... I'm looking at the sky."
He pointed out at the horizon. "There isn't a cloud in the sky. I keep wondering about what we were told yesterday."He sighed for a moment it because it was dumb to think about Zeus a god who as far as he had been concerned had never given him a second thought. But now knowing that Zeus had been gone since he was literally two years old, he was left thinking and now he kind of wanted some kind of sign, to know exactly why that had happened. "Every time there was a lightning storm I'd walk outside in it. I thought maybe in the rain, and wind I'd hear something like you did."
"Or did you mean the paper." He realized that she had probably meant the schedule and he was going completely introspective at the moment. He passed her the schedule and passed it to her."Honestly having a schedule like this really does kinda make this feel like a summer camp, they even have an arts and crafts center. It's past dawn so it's probably time to go get some breakfast."

Turning her head, Briar's eyes opened and she smiled softly. It hadn't been what she meant, but she enjoyed listening to his point of view. Part of being a good listen was sometimes he told her things he might not otherwise. Her eyes closed and she bit her lower lip, thinking about what he said about his father."Alexander, what if he isn't as bad as you think?"The question was soft. She loved her brother, she found it hard to believe that Zeus wouldn't love him too. He was prolific, that was to be sure, but wouldn't Alexander hold a special place, like any child should? Briar sighed softly. She knew that just because she wanted Zeus to love Alexander the way her own father seemingly loved her."I could be wrong,"She admitted softly."But I can't help but hope, that he isn't quite the asshole he seems to be"
Sitting up she chuckled and nodded, reaching for it. Her eyes skimmed over it and she bit back another sigh. Looking to Alexander she rose, shifting to sit in his lap. There was a small thrill doing it, knowing how they both felt, but she wanted to extract a promise from him."You know I am going to be bad at most of the things... Right?"She shook her head and smiled."I will be Alexander. It's... a fact. I would ask two things of you."She waited for a moment before continuing."Leave me behind during the day, don't let anyone see the weakness I give you"Her hand brushed his hair back from his face."I am, I know it."She also knew if he really thought she needed it, he'd help her."But at night, try and help me catch up?"Her smile was shy."I promise to not be too much of a brat"
Briar wanted to linger in his lap but also knew she shouldn't. Pressing her lips to his brow she slipped away."But you're right we should head out for breakfast. Side note.. I hate meals here"It wasn't the food she hated, it was the fact that she was the last standing, all eyes on her. She smiled at him and stepped back further, allowing him to rise."Think I can nick an apple for the Pegasus?" Briar had a fondness for animals, Alexander would know. She'd always wanted to learn to ride too. It was clear from the tone of her voice that there was at least on thing she was looking forward to. That and the arts and crafts were going to be her highlights of the day.
Heading for the door, she waited for him to join her before continuing. The walk from her cabin was a bit further than his naturally and soon they joined others heading to the mess hall. Once more they were subjected to the sitting process and when it came to her turn she slipped into her seat. This time, her eyes scanned for her new friend, Zavior. He'd said he didn't like crowds, and looking at the mass of demigods assembled, she wouldn't have been surprised if he was not in the crowd.

For some reason Alexander didn't really want his sister to be right about Zeus, it felt like it would let him off the hook far too easily. He didn't want that. He didn't want the years of isolation to be suddenly explained away with some godly good intentions. It felt like it would invalidate his feelings about the many years that had passed without him being around. Then it was his turn to listen to her about the events on their camp grounds. He didn't like the idea of ignoring her during the day, but he would nod slowly at her request."I am not so sure."He said more plainly.
"All of this is new territory. I've never picked up a bow, or ridden a horse before let alone a flying one. Horses terrify me, I've never been good with animals. Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses and it would be a little foolish to assume that either of us will be good at everything here before the day is over." He reached out and gave his sister's head a gentle pat for a moment."Don't deny yourself the chance to try."Part of a leaders charisma was always trying to inspire others to greater feats. Alexander liked to think it was at least one area of leadership where he was good, but his words would only carry her so far. "come nightfall I promise I will help you as much as I can." he said softly.
Going to the breakfast it was the same as it would always be a long line up of cabins, and true to his promise for the day before Alexander did not start eating until after she had sat down next to him. He spotted the woman whose nose he had broken from the Athena cabin before. He still felt a little proud of that even if her face had most certainly been healed from the day before. Camp administration was also with them to day. Chiron didn't so much sit as stand at a table, and another slightly haggardman. Alexander pointed him out."That's the camp's main councelor and benefactor, Dionysus the god of wine." After pointing him out Alexander started to eat.
While she scanned the crowd, she did find Zavior his bright golden eyes stood out in the early morning light almost like they were glowing, sitting comfortably in the Hermis cabin area. Surrounded by several others. clearly talking to other campers having an uncomfortable appearance though he gave a wave. Alexander noticed her looking around and traced her eyesight and blinked for a moment."You looking at another ghost?"He said lightly joking, from his perspective she was looking at an empty chair.

It was understandable, Alexander's reluctance to think about his father in a positive manner. He had been missing, no one had bothered to tell him... It had allowed a lot of animosity towards his father to grow. "Yeah..."It wasn't even like Briar was his biggest fan either, but without Zeus, would there have been Alexander? She smiled softly as he tried to give her confidence, it was sweet and quite litter all Alexander. He liked to build people up, provide encouragement; it was what marked him as a leader, at least in part. However, Briar was almost positive that while the Pegasus might scare him, the rest would somehow come a bit more naturally."I bet you do way better than you expect. Don't forget, horses can smell fear" she teased him with a wink.
Settling into breakfast, she looked towards the man Alexander mentioned. Nodding some, she began to eat as well. While she did, she had sought out Zavior; her eyes finding him, she had smiled, only for Alexander to lean in and joke about her seeing ghosts. Looking at him she looked back to Zavior, frowning slightly as she ate. Rather than asking aloud...You can't see a bright blonde hair boy with bright golden eyes? Maybe 16? If he couldn't, then that meant he was a ghost right? One more peg for her being freaky.
Sighing, she went back to her food. Seeing dead campers wasn't going to win her any friends, but she didn't want to ignore those she could see either. How often did they have a chance to talk to anyone, while stuck on earth? It made her wonder how one got stuck, rather than heading to the underworld. She'd seen shows on TV that have dealt with such things, movies too... But she wondered exactly how much was correct. Like ducking a reaper or unfinished business. Vengeful spirit seemed out
It dawned on her then that he had been talking to others... Were they all dead or could they hide from view? The sun wasn't even high in the sky and Briar's head gave a painful throb. As breakfast drew to a close she promised to meet up with Alexander in a minute before heading to Zavior, snagging an apple on her way. Smiling, Briar tilted her head to one side"Can I ask you something that might sound crazy?"She smiled shyly, hand rising to the back of her head.Are you a ghost? her voice was lower, trying to avoid stares if she was indeed just talking to thin air.
gpt
Alexander shook his head no, he didn't see the boy she was pointing too. Even when he had the description of the boy in his head he couldn't see it. Who you gonna call?He thought back to her slightly amused before going back to his meal. Seeing a ghost was one of those things that was a little to expected of his big sister, and not something he was going to stress about. If she had made a friend it didn't really matter if the boy was alive or dead. Alexander may have been making a bit of light of the situation but he was observant. He could see the other people at the table who seemed to talk to the space she had indicated, and there was a plate of food left out for someone at the seat, but the person was invisible.
When it came down to it he was a little worried for his sister, he wanted to see her flourish here but the new power wasn't something that he could help with exactly. He couldn't even see the kid. For now he would just go on ahead to the archery range and leave her too the investigation of her mysterious friend.
When Briar approached Zavior gave a wave. Acknowledging her, when she asked the question quietly he chuckled a little."Nope, not a ghost why do you ask?" He looked confused for a moment, and a few people at the table looked at Blair with equal amounts of confusion as well."Zavior's not a ghost."One of the girls said with an amused chuckle, but for the most part they settled down, and Zavior got up to walk away from the table with Briar.
"I don't usually come to meals, I usually wait till there are less people and eat during mid day, but um yeah, I'm not a ghost. So what brought up that question."He looked at Briar with genuine confusion written across his face unsure what was going on.
human
Snorting softly as she rose from her seat she shot him a look, playful annoyance on her face.Shut up! Though, the joke had been funny.. She had the same fears that Alexander had. Coming into her power was good, but it wasn't what anyone would call normal. True all demigods at some point should inherit a gift or two from their parents, most of them were common. Others would have had them, or have had them in the past. As far as Briar knew, there was no other god than Poseidon with her father's penchant for not bearing children. There had only been Percy in recent history, that being the last god only knew how long. But he was the son of one of the not terrifying big three. Hades was well scary to most.
When she asked Zavior if he was a ghost, her blush deepened at his response and the answer of the other girl. Biting back a sigh, she followed him away from the table."Well, it seems I can see ghosts and well, Alexander couldn't see you..."She frowned some and reached up to toy with the end of her braid."So, well, if he couldn't see you, it was my first guess." She smiled shyly."I just sorta started being able to see ghosts yesterday, so I am not sure when people I see are or are not ghosts"
It would have been easier if it was clear that ghosts were ghosts. They didn't seem to shimmer, they were not transparent, they were not cold. At least, not from her one experience thus far. Perhaps in time she'd be able to distinguish them from the living... Or she'd just seem crazy as she talked to nothingness."I gotta run, I have archery"She sounded about as thrilled as she was."For what it's worth, I am really glad you're not a ghost!"She smiled at him brightly and turned to leave.
Jogging off, she looked behind her once to wave at him before rounding a corner. Slowing as she neared the gathered group she moved to Alexander's side. Here, even now, she wanted to lay her head on his arm... She liked the comfort the closeness offered.Not a ghost whispered softly as she listened to one of the older campers, a daughter of Apollo."Hi my name is Eldora" Her voice was rich and it called for attention as the chattering around them fell off."I am a daughter of Apollo, which means I guess I know how to shoot" The warmth in her voice softened her features.Eldora's long, golden hair rippled in the breeze as her green eyes took in the motley crew before her. "Those who are familiar, grab a bow and move to the second set of targets. Those new to me this rotation, stay here and we will get you a bow and start teaching you the basics!"
More than half of the group sectioned off to start their practice with perhaps five or so staying with Alexander and Briar."Alright, so this isn't the easiest thing to learn, but I know you guys will learn fast!"A smile was offered and she motioned to everyone to grab a bow.

"Oh he couldn't see me..." Zavior didn't seem all that perplexed or confused by that confession. He chewed a lip for a moment."Well that's really cool about your powers."Clearly he knew more about this than he was letting on but also quickly darted away from that subject."Have fun at Archery, If you need me I'll be at the crafts area."He said quickly ducking away from the conversation. He quickly darted away from the table as well. One of the girls who had spoken about Zavior. walked up to her before she could fully retreat to Archery.
"Zavior is an... Oddity around the camp. He should be the Hermis cabin's counselor but he passed over the position he has been here the longest of any current half blood. He was raised here a little after he was born, no human or godly parent he's become a bit of a permanent resident in the Hermis cabin, but the mysteries around him never seem to end. He's an honest kid, but well... being raised in a camp year round isn't exactly easy." She sighed."Still he seems to have taken a liking to you. So if you need anything just ask. I'm Kylie the Hermis Cabin counselor."The only people who had been here longer or would know about him would have been the staff, or people like Percy who had already left the camp.
Alexander was already working on stringing up the bow when she arrived, and confirmed that Zavior wasn't a ghost. Alexander was just a bit confused thinking about it. He could see the table had been set out for the person, but he couldn't see anyone in the chair he had looked right at the spot she had indicated. 'Questions upon questions in this place'
There was a definite difference in the starting group and the others who had wondered off. New campers arrived to this place all the time, but there really was no common age range around who could participate. The youngest in their group was around the same age as Zavior 15-16, with Briar on the other hand being the oldest in the group, even though Alexander was the tallest. Once Alexander had taken a bow he walked to a white line drawn along the grass the shooting line for the targets that had been put about 20 feet away. Alexander lifted the bow, knocked the arrow to the string and pulled back."Okay lets see how this goes."
The wood creaked and groaned at the tension, as Alexander pulled on it. taking a wide stance as he did and continued to pull back he didn't realize that the bow was a light fifteen pound bow. The wired string that held it together couldn't cope with Alexander's pulling strength, and instead of releasing the arrow the entire thing snapped and exploded in Alexanders hands a piece of wood smacking Alexander across the face cutting him just under the eye."Um... Do you have a stronger bow?"
human
Briar came up short as Kylie approached her, the girl who had chuckled at her. It hadn't been malicious and Briar offered a shy smile. Her mind was puzzling over the fact that he didn't seem...surprised in the slightest. She would have to ask him about it later, but she didn't want to chase her first friend away in... goddess only knew how long. Just listening she learned a bit more about Zavior and in turn about Kylie. She was sweet it seemed and Briar smiled nodding."It's nice to meet you Kylie"Her voice was warm "I know I can't likely offer much yet in return, but if you ever need me for anything?"The offer was shy, to be sure, but it was clear Briar was being honest. Despite her scary parentage, Briar was quite sweet. Alexander knew this and now, perhaps Kylie got the same feeling."I gotta run. It was really nice meeting you!"
When she came up besides Alexander, Briar was still smiling. Picking up her own bow, the task of stringing was not so easy for her as it had appeared to be for Alexander. She was still trying when she heard the bow in her little brother's hand snap. Gasping she looked up and as if in slow motion saw it hit him just under his eye. Dropping her bow, Briar grabbed her bandanna that she'd shoved into her back pocket this morning holding it up to the cut on his face.
Eldora was there just as quickly, shaking her head with a smile on her face."Should have known. Yeah.. I can grab you one of the advanced bows"Looking to Briar she winked. "Hold that there, face wounds bleed like a sonofabitch" Nodding Briar stood on tippy toe holding it. Others turned to look at them and she blushed.Maybe you should hold it.Before she wouldn't have thought twice, but now that she knew, Briar was unable but to wonder if others could see it. She was being stupid... No one else could see it. Right?
When Alexander took over for her, she pulled back and looked to her bow. It was... strung. Blinking, she looked around. No one had been near it. Okay, so.. I know you were like bleeding and everything.. but did you see anyone near my bow?Something told her it was a helpful ghost. The action had been sweet, but if she never learned on her own, she'd never be able to do it herself. It would be like having Alexander do everything for her. It was why Briar had learned to scale counters at a young age. It had not been unusual to see her jumping from the island in the middle of the kitchen to the counter near the fridge to reach things out of her short arm range rather than ask Alexander.
Coming back, Eldora held several bows in her hands.Try one of these.She seemed chipper despite it all.
gpt
Alexander let out a low groan of pain for a moment as Briar pressed the bandana to his face. He kept blinking trying to make absolutely certain that the splintered wood of his bow had completely missed his eye and that his vision wouldn't be affected. The sting to his face told him that the cut was light, that it hadn't been too deep, but even a scratch could scar. When Briar asked him to hold it, he did so, but sent back a message of his own.How bad is it? Do you think it will scar?
He didn't really want his face to be fucked up for the rest of his life, but the morning air stung so he kept his hand clutched to the bandana. At the question about Briar's bow he shook his head."No I've been a little preoccupied."He said checking over himself one more time dabbing away at his face as Eldora came back with a new set of bows."Thanks for the first aid."He said adding his appreciation to the mix. It was a bit embarrassing really.
The entire event made him blush a little, not just from the initial touch or seeing Briar having to get so close to him to touch his face, but rather he had promised that he wouldn't allow her to be a weakness, that he would accel wherever he could and yet the first thing he does is shatter camp equipment and basically make himself look like an overly strong idiot. So no he hadn't been focused on whom ever had strung up Briar's bow rather he had been more focused on trying to play off the pain he was in from the cut, as well as making sure that he was actually okay.
taking the bows he was a lot more careful in trying each one this time, trying to find one that didn't feel like it would break in his hands. In the end he went with one of the heavier oaken bows, a 70lbs draw weight, usually it would take an experienced marksman to hold onto that, but for Alexander it was entirely because it was the only bow that didn't feel like a plastic toy, pulling on the string actually gave him a feeling of resistance. It wasn't perfect, he would have preferred something perhaps a little heavier, but this was the heaviest the camp had on hand.
When he stepped to the line for the second time, he made sure to be at least six feet away from everyone else, including Briar not because he wanted space but because if anything went wrong with this bow he wanted to be the only one at risk of being hurt. I seriously have no idea how to aim this thing, and I don't want to risk shooting you Briar so could you put one of the other kids between you and me.It was perhaps a little cruel of a joke, but it was also a sincere truth, he would much rather accidentally shoot a complete stranger than take a risk at accidentally harming her. Knocking an arrow and pulling back the tension for a second time he felt more stable this time with a wide stance, but when he loosed the arrow it sailed clear over the target and into the woods beyond. There was a sharp chirp from the woods, and alexander looked mortified at his own hands.Shit I think I hit a bird.
human
Can't tell, too much blood. Though, Briar thought he might look handsome with a scar. Smiling some she nodded, stepping back. The fears or worry that Alexander felt, she didn't. She took the breaking of the bow as just something he didn't know. But he was learning, right? He knew he was strong and didn't break most things normally. When in his eighteen years would Alexander have had a chance to pick up a bow before now? It wasn't like outside of a summer camp that was a normal activity and they had never been to one. Briar was still just as proud of him. It also distracted her from the fact that her bow had strung itself. She'd need to learn how to later tonight and Briar added it to the first of likely many things she'd need to know.
She took some practice shots though, while he looked over the bows that Eldora brought back. She hit the dirt, the hay and was aiming for a third time when he spoke through her mind. Releasing the tension she looked around; for the most part, no one was doing much better than she was. That was a relief at least. Her laughter trailed down the line, bright and loving, but she moved back with the guise of getting more arrows. It put several bodies between her and him, keeping her safe. She had known it to be a joke, but Briar knew hurting her wasn't something he would want to do. If she could help take that off his plate of worries, what harm was there? That and she didn't think he'd hurt anyone else either, she had far more faith.
The thought and the look on his face made her heart ache.I will go look, okay? She didn't wait for him to respond. Vanishing past the targets and into the woods. He had indeed hit a bird and she shut him out firmly from hearing her thoughts.Touch the bird, . Little death, it was the name her father used... There was no doubt who was speaking to her, the rich, sighing words reverberated with power in her skull. Pulling the arrow free she tossed it deeper into the woods and picked up the bird. She didn't know what kind it was, but it's raven feathers held rainbows within.
Cradling it's prone body she gasped as the wound healed before her eyes and it sat up in her hands, a sweet little chip coming from its beak. Saying a silent thank you to the gift her father had allowed her to borrow for Alexander she opened the path between them and let him see through her eyes, the little bird in her hands. It was hard to hold the image in her mind, so she let it fade.He seems alive to me. Perhaps you just scared it? It was a lie, but one meant to protect her little brother. He had killed it, but it was no longer dead, so at beast it was a half truth.
Letting the bird go she rose and headed back to the archery shooting gallery. Carefully arching away from where others might be shooting for her own safety. Coming back up she picked her bow up again.How is your face?
gpt
Alexander thought it was a little weird when she went radio silent, those moments where she shut him out made him a bit confused and scared that he had really harmed something. Unlike breaking a woman's nose because they had insulted his sister; the thought of killing a bird made him fairly nauseated. So there was a sense of relief when she told him the bird was alive, he had to close his eyes for a moment to properly see what she was trying to show him. But seeing the bird in perfect working order within her hands made him visibly relax.I'm not a murderer.
Now that he knew his shots could over reach the limits of the range he would have an easier time adjusting his aim lower so that he could avoid making the same mistake again. When his sister came back to view he smiled at her grateful that she had gone and found the bird for him. She asked about his face and he shrugged. It stings but it's not painful if that makes sense. He had tied the bandana over the lower portion of his face to make a mask that hid the cut, and also kept some amount of pressure on it.Hasn't stopped bleeding yet I don't think.
Drawing his bow back a second time and keeping his focus much lower than he had the first time he kept his stance wide like they had been shown and when he loosed the arrow this time it hit the target, well the white board of the target at least, with a crack of splintering wood. When he was able to go retrieve his arrow it was broken, the strength of his shot had caused the arrow head to drive past the barrel of hay and shatter against the hard wood board on the other side of the target."I don't think I'm well suited for archery."
"Either that or I am extremely well suited to be an anti tank archer." He said with a sarcastic roll of his eyes. "When working with this equipment it all feels like plastic to me, like I'm handling a nerf toy, but then I see how much damage I can inflict... and I'm kinda scared."He was talking to his sister, openly about this, because he wasn't just looking at his sister he wanted Eldora's opinion on it too. "How about you have you taken a shot yet?"He asked her curious for a moment, and gesturing for her to take the range."I'm curious to see what you will do."
human
And that thought alone as it traveled between them was why she was so thankful she'd been able to hide the truth from him. The death of the bird would serve nothing other than to hurt Alexander. The small white lie would save him that pain for a while at least... If a war really did come there might be no saving him from that forever.Not even a little. He could have that small gift of her lie for a little while longer.
That made sense, the fact was it was still bleeding. She wasn't worried, though she thought it would be unlikely that it wouldn't scar. Briar listened as Alexander spoke, but she had nothing to offer. With practice and the strength he wielded, he could be deadly with a bow. More so than others, depending on the strength. The force of his arrow could perhaps pierce armor, which would be valuable for war."Like I said, you might need a custom bow. Not many here have your strength. Though, in battle that strength would likely aid your rather than hinder you" Eldora's voice was matter of fact. "Though you will need more practice. I will also see if I can find a better target for you too"They'd need one.
Blushing she looked to Alexander and sighed. She didn't want him watching, or Eldora. She would have been okay being horrible at archery forever. "Okay" Lifting her bow, she inhaled and held her breath as she released the arrow, exhaling as she did. How did she know that this was at least the proper way to shoot? Movies mostly. They all said the same thing. She missed still, but had come a little closer. She was at least now making it to the target rather than her arrows hitting the dirt."That's not bad. How did you know about controlling your breathing?"Eldora was curious and Briar flushed once more."Brave?"Her answer was clearly embarrassing.
Eldora looked confused."The movie? Princess Merida"Briar prompted and Eldora shook her head."It's in a lot of movies"Briar shrugged, explaining. "I figured if a lot of them say the same thing it might be true.""Ah, well that makes sense I suppose"She came up and helped Briar find the correct pose, something Alexander had seemed to know without being told like she knew the breath technique. After a few moments, she helped Alexander and then after a while she moved on to the others. All they needed to do to be free was hit the target. Alexander was free to go technically, though they had a bit of time before switching areas.
gpt
Alexander laughed a little when she said the reason she knew how to shoot was because they watched Brave. It was a small innocent chuckle but honestly her shots were improving. He knew he was free to go, she had told him not to show weakness, to leave her behind when he was ready to go. He certainly didn't want to continue breaking things, and being clumsy with the bow, but at the same time letting go of his sister after she had gone and found the bird he had startled, it felt wrong. When she said that she had learned to breath by watching Brave he cracked for a moment he couldn't help but laugh at his sisters explanation and how it hinged around one of the movies they had watched growing up.
Will you be shootin for your own hand?His voice echoed into her mind, but he made no effort to leave the field even though by all accounts he had been dismissed at this point. He was however still giggling a little bit."I don't think the people around here get too see a lot of movies." Even in the cabin they had been sharing that was constructed to be the most modern and livable their was no T.V. and no computers, the two of them had their cell phones but they had no cell tower to connect to, which meant no wifi or data so they couldn't even watch youtube.
It actually brought up a few thoughts he had been worrying about like news from the outside world, or finding out exactly where they were. Eldora actually helped confirm one of his worst fears by saying something to his comment."There is a VHS player in the big house with a few movies."
Video Home System, seriously we are going to live in a place that doesn't even have a DVD player, we are going to die without ever seeing another blu ray.It was a sort of strange idle panic when he realized that this camp existed in a time and space out of synch with the rest of the world. Not just because it was warm in the midst of October and they were only wearing T shirts and pants. So many infinite questions raised in the matter of seconds. He breathed out a heavy breath as he came back to control himself tone down his surprised reaction. "I guess Hades is the only one who keeps up with the current trends."
Your breathing is good, and you have an eye for the target, you need to draw the bow back to the tip of your smile when your shooting that will help you line your shots better. As he thought about it he was trying to give her advice, but he wasn't really sure how he knew the physical aspects of archery so easily. He always seemed to have a natural attunement when it came to athletics.
human
Her giggle trailed down their link and she answered, the warmth of her sweet voice palpable. Maybe if I am going to be forced into marriage, I can ask for the right? Though there was a strangeness that followed, an almost longing the though that she cut off. She didn't want just anyone and the man she'd want she couldn't have. Who exactly in the world could live up to Alexander? It was more than his physical prowess, kindness or even his leadership. She could likely find one or aspects of both in another, but it was other small things. Like when he was working on a problem, the way he concentrated on it. Or the shyness he had when he wasn't great at something.. even his smile and the way his eyes seemed to light up. No one could even be all of that and it would be unfair to compare them to him.Lucky that's some way off, huh?
The idea of no real technology made her heart ache. She could live without TV, but there was something about curling up with a good movie or hell, a good e-book. Their cellphones work if they didn't want to connect to anything, making them as useful as a paperweight in actuality. "That sounds horrid" She wasn't addicted, but technology made life a bit easier or provided entertainment."What.. kind of movies?" Briar was even unsure what some of the last movies were on VHS... When did they stop making them? Had she been alive in the land of VHS?This is a tech black hole. You'd think they'd want to keep in contact or something...
When he mentioned her father she nodded."Seems so."She understood it to a point, but Briar felt like they were handicapping their demigods to a point. They could have built something truly amazing with the technology they were turning their back on, which could be an upper hand in a battle with a freaking Titian. Easily shared data at the tips of your fingers. What did she know though?
Listening to Alexander, Briar tried what he suggested, feeling the tickle of the feather against her skin before letting her arrow fly. The shaft of the air wobbled slightly but hit the edge of the outer ring. Gasping she jumped up and down, far too excited for barely hitting the target. It had been more his tip than anything else.Were you doing the breathing too? She looked up at him and smiled, brightly.You really helped me out. It was then the idea hit her, she would ask Kylie about connecting her with someone to make a bow for him. It would help him feel more stable when shooting, that it wouldn't just break.
"Where next?" Though the moment she asked, her eyes lit up."Pegasus right?!"The real highlight of her day.
gpt
Eldora shrugged."I think the last one I watched was... who framed roger rabbit?" She said with a shrug. "The T.V. is mostly used when people are recovering from injuries in the big house so there is a small collection, but I don't recall them off the top of my head."It made sense in a way, this camp was all about the physical training, and yet everything here was so out dated. They were learning how to shoot bows and arrows, rather than riffles or the guns of a modern military, they had swords and shields. They were preparing for a Spartan War, not a modern one.
Alexander actually shook his head when she asked if he was using the same breathing technique. I completely forgot about that kind of thing, controlling my breathing and all. I just brute forced it.Like most solutions in his life alexander had just put more strength into it till something worked. Probably why his arrows had all been so over powered and traveled so far in distance. He would do better to remember the breathing and too calm himself the next time he was at the archery range, maybe it would help him get closer to the center of the target.
When she asked what came next, and saw her face light up his own body seemed to shiver in fear. She was right."What's the plural of Pegasus, Pegasai? or is it like moose where the plural is just moose."He tried to deflect his fear of horses and larger animals with a bit of light banter. However he did reach out and quietly pull back his sister who was about to abandon the archery field."Not so quick there Briar, your forgetting. we got to take this stuff back to the Armory."
It was a walk past the armory unstringing the bows and returning them along with the used arrows to the armory storage, looking over everything he paused for a moment as he looked at the wrack after all was said and done."That's weird."He pointed at the wrack."We're missing a bow."There were two empty slots among the wrack. One would have held the bow that Alexander had shattered into a dozen or so pieces, but the other was a much heavier type of bow a seventy pounder like the one Alexander had been using."Our group was the only ones who checked out bows, and this was a beginner class, no one else should have been using a heavy bow like that."He gave a concerned look to Eldora who just gave a shrug.
"You two should go on to your next lession, I'll look into the missing bow, it's my responsibility." She reminded the other two campers. Alexander looked a little concerned, but the next stop for the two would be the stables, and not even a mystery could apparently stop the horrible fate of having to deal with the dumb bird horses.
human
It made sense, but Briar knew she would miss the luxury that was the internet and other small creature comforts that they had grown up with. It was odd that they seemed so set in their ways. Perhaps the advancements of humanity wouldn't benefit them in a war with the Titans? Surely they were not the first, nor the last to question such. Was it even their place to question such things? Unlikely.
Silly, we can both practice it. I still think you did a good job, for what it is worth. Her hand found his for a moment and she teased him mentally, unable to help it.Remember, horses can smell fear! Was she being a bit of a buttface? Yes. "Pegasi, I think." A form seemed to appear from nothingness, a youngerboy, perhaps sixteen with jet black hair and shocking blue eyes. Pushing his glasses up, he nodded.Indeed. The plural form of Pegasus is Pegasi. The word Pegasus comes from the Greek origin word Pgasos. Briar had watched this boy appear, so she knew him for what he was.Thank you. What's your name? At her question he looked shocked and vanished.Ghosts are a bit odd... This was whispered across her link to Alexander.
When he pointed out they needed to return their gear Briar honest to goodness pouted. She had been ready to run off, but sighed and nodded walking back with him to return their gear. Blushing, Briar struggled to unstring her bow, the blush deepening under Eldora's gaze. It seemed puzzling she'd strung it, but could reverse the task. How did one explain a ghost had strung it? She looked to the racks and frowned."Odd.. You're right"
When Eldora told the pair that it was her responsibility, Briar was more than happy to be off. Her hand found Alexander's and she tugged him away as she waved to Eldora "Thanks for the lesson!" Come on, I snuck a sugar cube for you. Feed it to your Pegasus and I bet they will love you. Briar produced the sugar cube from her pocket and bumped her hip into his. More or less alone, they could talk normally."It's really not going to be that bad, I know horses scare you, but are you not excited to fly?" Surely that appealed to him? Her fingers laced with his, the touch meant to comfort... but also it made her heart skip a beat.

Hearing that his sister had seen yet another ghost Alexander blinked for a moment. He looked around the camp for a moment. It was a warm day, bright and sunny, it wasn't the kind of weather he associated with ghosts or creepy stuff. He knew his sister didn't want to be thought of as weird and he wasn't really thinking about her connection to the afterlife, he was just curious.You know I think I have to say it, why are their so many ghosts of dead campers around?
It was a little chilling of a thought. Maybe they were the spirits of those campers who had embarked on quests given to them by their godly parents and never returned? Maybe there had been an incident that had left many campers for dead. They were training for a war against titans after all he wasn't a fool some people would end up dead in a war like that. But why were they all here? The camp was supposed to be the safe place for half bloods so where did all these spirits come from. Were they drawn to Briar? The thought that she could see them after all would mean that she can give them attention that no other living person could. With stories of possession and darker aspects of spirits he wondered for a moment if the spirits of the dead were drawn to his sister so they could find someone to help them move on. So far they seemed to be strictly helpful, but would that last?Sorry I know you don't know the answer to that, it just makes me worry that your seeing so many dead people in a place that doesn't even seem to have a graveyard.
Of course the thought of dead campers was creepy, the thought of living bird horses was much more terrifying. He looked at his sister incredulously for a moment when she asked him if he was excited to fly."If horses were meant to fly they would have wings." He looked at his sister for a moment his voice had been genuine stern, but he quickly realized that yes these horses had wings."You know what I mean."
Still he took the sugar cube, and walked with her to the stables where the rest of their class was starting to gather for the next lesson. Again they were on the beginners circuit but this one seemed to have a lot more people than just the archery range. The camper in charge here was a familiar woman, a woman who's nose was ever so crooked now after Alexander had broken it the day before. She even still had a few bandages. The counselor of the Athena cabin. Samara gathered them around. She had one steed already out of the stables, it's white body and gold main mixed well with the bird like feathers it displayed."Welcome everyone I am Samara of the Athena cabin. This is Rio she will be my assistant for the first lesson."Her voice was slightly more nasily and when she saw Alexander and Briar approach she sputtered her face going white for a moment.
human
Blinking, Briar's eyes slanted toward her brother with a smirk on her lips."Do I?"She said innocently. "I mean, a god... gave them wings. Seems meant to be to me"Her voice had somehow become more innocent, as she batted her lashes at him."If you wanna tell Poseidon that you don't like his winged horse, you might be on your own" Giggling brightly as Alexander took the cube from her. Standing closer to him, Briar decided to give a flying fuck about her closeness and laid her head on his arm. There was nothing sexual in the touch, just comfort. Her eyes were focused on the Pegasus before shifting to their instructor.
Her eyes widened and Briar blushed, looking away as Samara's eyes found her and then Alexander's. Shifting closer to him, there was now more of a reason to be closer to him. She'd been feeling okay, but the comment about her eyes stung. It was one stupid girl's opinion of her but it wasn't hard to shake. It wasn't like Samara was the first to have picked on Briar for her eyes; she wouldn't be the last. She wasn't looking up, her eyes on the floor.Of course...
Figures the class she'd been looking forward to the most was led byher.She loved horses, the idea of a flying one had been thrilling. Gritting her jaw she was determined to not let Samara ruin this for her. She wanted nothing more than to slip her hand into his, fingers linked... But that might seem odd. She still leaned into him but her eyes were on the beauty beside Samara, who was slowly regaining her composure. Clearing her throat she drug her eyes away from the siblings.
"The first thing to know is you need to always be alert. Riding can be a lot of fun, but the moment you stop paying attention, an accident will happen." She looked around and with a nod, she began explaining about tack, important things to watch out for with each steed, basic care and safety tips. The whole intro took nearly half an hour."I know you're likely excited to get started, but for the remainder of the time, I want you to get to know your Pegasus." It seemed there was enough for each camper to have their own for the class. She called out names, and assigned them to one of the magnificent beasts behind her in the stables.
When she called Alexander's name maybe fourth or fifth, her eyes flickered to him, then to his sister."Alexander, you will have Kataigda"A few more names later, she called out Briar's name. "Briar, Kak"Their horses were close together, his a lovely dappled grey mare, her coat flecked with white and her wigs almost like a falcons in coloring. Briar's mount was pure black, his coat so deep, like her own hair it reflected colors back, though rather than the purple that her hair gave off, his was blue. He was also a monster of a horse. Alexander's mare was large, but compared to his height, she wasn't too bad. Briar's demure figure was dwarfed by Kak.
Briar didn't seem to mind as she held her hand out to Kak, palm up, letting his nose brush against her palm. Snuffling her hand, he knickered and nudged her hand. He could smell both the sugar cube and the apple. "Ahhh you can smell your treat, can't you handsome boy?"Pulling the apple out, she held it palm up to him. Kak greedily snapped up his apple, munching on it. While he was busy, she began to inspect him, as Samara had instructed.

Alexander walked up too Kataigda walking up to the stable that contained the large imposing beast. Unlike his sister who seemed to connect to hers almost immidiately his nervousness around the bird-horse seemed to agitate Kataigda, and so the mare was skittish around her new rider who honestly just kind of lacked the confidence to handle a horse. He held out the sugar cube keeping his hand open, but trembling."easy right, your not gonna bite my hand are you?"
As if too answer the question the Pegasus just slurped it's treat up, licking his hand while she was at it, which of course made him recoil but the offering was made, and the horse seemed fine with it. Samara walked about with the authority of a drill instructor as she looked around at the other students, but she always seemed a bit pale when she looked towards Alexander. When she saw Briar bonding with her pegasus she walked up to Briar's stable an approving look on her face."Very good Briar, you are already making a connection with Kako. I can tell you're going to be natural with him."
She moved on to check the others as well."Okay, so today we aren't going to be riding." A few of the students groaned Alexander felt a wave of relief over him."You will get to ride soon, but before you do, you need to learn how to care for your pegasus. The ones you have each been assigned will be your friend, and ally for a very long time. They will be in your care for most of their lives. Cabins take turns cleaning the stables. feeding the animals." Samara looked at the two members of her class that were alone in their cabins."The two of you will join the Hermis cabin when they are on cleaning duty, it's not a job one or two people could do alone."
"Today you won't be riding them, today you will be washing and caring for them it helps build a relationship between rider and pegasus. You will need that relationship to be one of trust as your life will be on their back a lot. Plus these guys all kind of stink. When I call for you, you will take your pegasus by the reigns open your stable and bring them to the washing area."Naturally Alexander was one of the first people she called on, which lead to him opening the door and the pegasus walking after him, as he held the reigns. Honestly it was hard to tell who was more nervous, Alexander or Kataigda. Samara was amused for a moment."Your brother... is not nearly as good with animals as you are."

Smiling softly as she pet Kako's nose as he munched on her treat she reached out to Alexander.Remember when we were little, maybe... six and seven and there was that dog? You stood your ground protecting me? It had been a dog that had been abused and had managed to break free. Feral and unwilling to trust humans he'd back the pair into a corner and Alexander had put himself in front of his sister.Kataigda is far less scary. You fear is spooking her. She is unlikely to bite you. Try petting her nose or rubbing her neck. Let her get used to your smell and get used to being close to her. There was no laughter or teasing in her voice, she was doing her best to soothe him.
She blushed when Samara gave her praise a shy smile offered. "I always wanted to ride when I was younger" The admission was also shy but she met her eyes. Perhaps she wasn't so bad? That or she was terrified of Alexander. She was stroking Kako's neck, the large stallion happy with the affection. It was made clear as he turned to look at her, eyes and ears pointed in her direction. While she had never been on a horse, she'd read about them a lot through middle school and it seemed the information had stuck. When Samara turned towards them, she nodded. It made sense, as they were alone in their cabin."Okay"
She watched Alexander walk from the pen and she couldn't help but feel he was walking as if he was about to die. Relax silly. You're scaring her. Briar was unsure for a moment how to help him when the idea came to her. Smiling as watched him, she let her feelings pour into her voice, as she began tosing to him over their bond. It held her longing and love for him, in the only place she felt she could share it... Her voice was rich as she poured everything she was to help calm her brother.
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smoky room
A smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Looking to Samara she shook her head. "He is nervous, he will get the hang of it before we know it."Her voice was very confident, so sure in his abilities. Though her singing trailed off, she hummed the song down the bond, hoping to help him relax. She knew he could do this, she just needed Alexander to know he could too. Once he did, everything would be fine. Briar knew Alexander well, she liked to think, knew his strengths and weaknesses even better than himself sometimes...
gpt
The memory of the dog came back to him, and was uncomfortable for a moment. The feral angry dog had been confused, but viscous. Alexander had managed to put himself between his sister and the animal, but it had felt cornered and attacked. Alexander had managed to hold it off using his strength dragging the dog away from the two of them. The sad part of the memory was that there was nothing they could really do for the dog. When animal control came, it was too aggressive and violent to be helped. He looked at the horse who by comparison was just kind of big. Kataigda was indeed less scary than the dog from before.
He blinked for a moment when his sister started singing into his mind. He relaxed more visibly, as he brought the horse to the hygienic area. He smiled softly, his hand outstretched towards the Pegasus's neck brushing her gently for a moment. It helped to calm her, as she seemed to relax. The musical voice of his sister helped. Relaxing him as he looked over to her. A smile soft on his face, she always helped him be more brave. He had only gotten between her and the dog because of how much she had meant to him.Thank you Briar.
It hadn't completely removed his fear, but the distraction had been good enough for him to get his nerves back."Okay, I'll stop spooking you." he said brushing her neck and main for a moment. He was still nervous, still uncomfortable, but he could at least stop seeing Kataigda as a beast."You are kind of pretty I guess. From a certain point of view." He said towards the Pegasus.
Samara nodded at being told that Briar had always wanted to ride. A lot of girls had that same reaction when they came here."You'll get your chance to ride, but it's important that everyone goes through the safety orientation. You can take Kako to the hygiene area as well."She went on her way to go help some of the others."When you use the shower heads on them, spray from the hooves up, and do not spray the Pegasus in the face, that is one way to get on their bad side."
Alexander nodded and started to work with the warm water. starting the process of washing Kataigda.
human
She hadn't meant to bring up a bad memory, she had wanted to show him there had been a scarier time than this for the siblings. The memory of the dog was likely a sad one for them both. The dog had been mistreated to the point it didn't trust humans anymore. People like it's owner, the scum of the earth... Shaking the feeling from her mind she had focused on calming him and was in the end rewarded with a smile from him. Her smile was shy as he thanked her through the bond. There was a feeling of joy that followed down the line, happy she could help him.
Turning to Samara she nodded."I understand, I am not in any rush." She wasn't. She was happy to just be near such a beautiful beast."Okay" There was a clear smile in her voice as she led Kako out of his stall, unlike Alexander Briar was clearly at ease and by extension Kako was as well. Kako didn't need her to lead him, content to follow her from the pen on his own, the reins between them in her hand slack.
Once in the same area with Alexander, Briar began to start the cleaning process, her middle school knowledge coming in handy once more.Do as I do Alexander, the brushing process will help get us antiquated... Help them see us as friends. Briar moved slowly, but meticulously. Using a blackrubber curry, she began to brush Kako's coat in small circular motions, cleaning it of any debris and dirt. Careful to avoid the bony area's she kept the brush to his neck, chest, belly and hindquarters. Next she brushed him down with adandy brush, followed by combing out his mane. Then she began the process of actually bathing Kako. Starting at his legs she began to hose him down carefully, Kako danced a bit but still as she whispered to him. Not all horses would like the hose and some riders would need to wet their horses with a sponge.
The process was slow, making sure not to scare the Pegasus and to clean them thoroughly. Briar finished and was wearing as much water as she sprayed on Kako and smelling particularly like the stables. Sniffing herself she grimaced."I need another shower..."Looking to Alexander she smiled softly. "Wasn't so bad, yeah?" He had seemed to relax more and more as time went on, which made her proud of him. Rather than say it out loud she whispered it down their bond.You did well when you relaxed. I am proud of you. From anyone else it might have seemed condescending, but she knew his fear of horses, let alone ones that could fly.
gpt
Alexander spent a few moments brushing Kataigda watching Briar he took notes on the tools she was using and tried his best to follow her lead, however this was when he learned that his Pegasus was more or less a total deva. She disliked the hose and forced Alexander to use a sponge to wet and bathe her. She smacked him with a wing at one point when he tried to touch her with the shampoo, and repeated the process several times till he finally went and grabbed a different shampoo. By the end of it, he was soaked, he was embarrassed, he reaked of stables, and between this and archery he just wanted to kind of go back home and sleep. Once Kataigda was dried off with a towel and returned to the stable he was annoyed visibly twitching.
Why is mine a total diva?He muttered through their link. It's like she thinks the regular shampoo isn't good enough for her, or that she demands special attention.He was a little salty about the way he had been smacked back by her wing, landing and getting soaked by the hose.It's like she thinks she is a kings steed or something.
When his sister suggested a shower he sniffed himself."I'd join you for that."He meant it more innocently than it sounded, and in the moment he didn't correct her."For you maybe, I don't think I'm going to enjoy riding lessons for a while."Next time they would actually be forced to ride the creatures which was a prospect he was actually a bit afraid of, but hearing her voice he smiled. For some reason his sister saying that she was proud of him had him glowing changing his mood from the soureness he felt to more light on his feet. It didn't completely remove the wound of the stables, but it helped."Hey we found something your going to be better at than me."
They had some time before the mid day meal, and with the promise of the shower he was actually turned and intent to return to their cabin. He wanted to scrub the smell of horse off of his body. He supposed he could have gone to the more public showers, but why bother with those when their cabin had private bath, and a pool."We have a bit of time where we can relax for an hour or so before lunch, and I am tired of smelling like stables."
"After lunch the schedule literally said arts and crafts."He recalled their schedule."That honestly sounds a little demeaning don't you think?"
Arriving back at the Cabin, Alexander let out a sigh. "Dibs on the first shower." He gave his sister a smile and pulled off his shirt, giving her a look of his well defined chest, it was something she had already seen after last night as he tossed it in the laundry hamper and walked into the bathroom closing the door behind him, tossing off the rest of his clothes on the bathroom floor as he walked into the standing shower. He let out a groan as he turned the hot water on and felt it run down his body, closing his eyes for a moment as he let it soak in his body and ease some of the pain of the day. Filling the room with steam.

Laughing down their bond she smiledMaybe she is preparing you for a girlfriend? Blinking she looked to Alexander.You're the son of Zeus... She is a king's steed. When Alexander said he'd join her, Briar knew he didn't mean it in the way it sounded, but she knew how he felt about her. Her cheeks flushed and she looked away. Letting him change the subject she cleared her throat and nodded. "Perhaps, I think you might like it more once you try it"She smiled and bumped her hip into his playfully."Just the one though"Her voice was still bright, clearly having fun.
Following him to their cabin she laughed softly."Demeaning?"She tilted her head to one side."I don't think so, but I am willing to bet you see it like paper mache and bird houses?" She doubted that is what they'd be making. She'd be willing to bet it was smiting, pottery making perhaps... fetching. She didn't know what all it could be, but she didn't think they'd have them building bird houses. Most likely it would be practical based for their lives and the war that they were preparing for.
Heading into the cool air conditioning of the cabin she let out a soft sound, eyes closed. Briar stretched and sighed."I am glad my dad at least got us AC... I don't think summer would be much fun without it"Briar bit her lower lip, mind moving back to what she'd heard before they had slept. It was a taboo that wasn't meant to be crossed... She knew that. They both felt it, while Alexander didn't know her feelings, they didn't differ from his.
Watching him pull his shirt off, Briar said nothing to his dibs and just watched him leave. She knew if she said nothing, he'd never know she knew. Perhaps they'd learn to love others. It would be for the best, she knew it and had she posed the question to him, he'd have known it as well. His voice echoed in her mind as had the images that Alexander had unknowingly shared. The problem was... she wanted him just bad. She wondered what it would feel like in his arms, to have him lover her not as his sister, but as his lover.
Biting on her thumb she closed her eyes, fighting with herself before deciding to say fuck it to everything. Following him she shed her clothing silently, letting it fall into the hamper over his. The bathroom was a wall of steam when she finally worked up the courage to push further. Naked, she slipped into the shower. She didn't know why, but she couldn't move past her own desires and his. Her voice came from just behind him. She was naked, the steam from the shower making her pale skin shimmer. It accented her curves, the intake of her waist...
"Alexander" His name whispered as her arms slipped around his waist and she pressed herself against his back. The softness of her breasts pushing against the middle of his back, her cheek pressed against his shoulder blades."I heard what you last night... while we lay in bed... "Her voice held shyness so palpable, it was like the steam surrounding them.
gpt
His eyes closed his back had been to the door washing his hair he had never noticed the door open or the sudden presence of another person. He was considering the thought of playing with himself considering he finally had a chance to be away, the image of his sister in her underwear the closest he thought he would ever get to such a fantasy until he felt arms wrap around his waist, a very familiar voice whispering his name. His eyes shot open as he had this fantasy a few times before, but this wasn't the fantasy. Not when his sisters plush breasts were pressing into his back. His legs trembled for a moment at her touch. She had heard him last night.
"I never meant for you to hear that."His voice was nervous, but this was a strange experience. The two of the naked, her body pressed against his. He was excited, but at the same time he was a deer stuck in headlights for a moment. Alexander.exe had failed to respond and his mind took a few breaths to really respond to his sister. He did however sink further back to arms, feeling her support him he let out a tension he didn't realize he had been holding back for a long time.Is it really all that surprising?
He finally got the nerve to turn around, his arms landing on Briar's shoulders as he invited her into the water. His eyes soaking in the sight of her face as hot water poured over them. with the two of them so close and entwined she would feel his hips brushing against her, his body excited by her presence had reacted physically and enthusiastically, with the tip of his penis now brushing against her stomach as he held her thanks in part to their height difference."The greek gods invented degeneracy. Rheia and Kronos, Zeus and Hera. Everyone in this camp is our cousin in some way."He moved closer his lips taking his sisters as he pulled her close. Holding her supporting her. His strong arms holding her gently and protectively his fingers playing with her raven hair. When the kiss broke he smiled.
"I'd treat you better than any king does their queen."He brushed her hair a moment longer. looking into those pale lavender eyes for a moment longer, before he finally pulled back from her, just for a moment so he could take in the sight of her entire body. He was trying his best to savor the beautiful image in front of him. She on the other hand would get to see his full lithe figure, as water trailed down his sides helping to showcase the flow of his muscles, and hips. His tall posture meant that despite the fact that he was younger than Briar he stood well over a head taller than her. With well maintained muscles that only hinted at the godly strength he could deploy. Along with his hips she would get to see what his boxers had kept hidden before, and like the rest of him, it stood tall and proud in front of her.

Slipping into the steam had been something that Briar knew she could never take back. There was a fear that even desiring her, Alexander could turn her away. When she slipped her arms around him, she'd felt his body stiffen and her eyes had closed tight. She wasn't sure what all she expected him to say and when he spoke aloud, Briar nodded."I know"She knew he hadn't meant to share it with her, but she had been unsure what to do with that detail then and was still unsure. Though, something shifted and he suddenly leaned back into her and her arms tightened a fraction in a hug. His question had her opening her eyes as she considered it, his voice in her mind.
Before she could answer, Alexander turned in her arms and Briar let him. Pulled into the hot fall of water, the clear rivulets of water streaming down along her body. First her dark hair, then along her shoulders, to the swell of her breasts. While Briar was not leggy, her soft form had been molded to perfection for her size. Her breasts were smaller perhaps, but the pair would find just a little less than a handful for Alexander, her pale pink nipples already hardening despite the warmth in the shower. Her stomach was flat and tucked in at the sides, giving her a slight hourglass. Hips blossomed out from that gentle intake and her rear was perfectly heart shaped. Blush rested in her cheeks as she watched his eyes, feeling how his body reacted."They are gods.." Any further argument was silenced as his mouth found hers. Leaning up into him, Briar kissed him back, hands resting on his chest.
The feel of his fingers in her hair made her feel almost weak kneed as the kiss had and she bit her lower lip, looking up at him. She blushed, as he pulled back and took in her form, all supple curves and pale skin. Though while her blush would intensify, her eyes did not remain on his long however, as she looked over her brother. Her thighs brushed together as she took in all of him, her own desires spiking. His words played in her mind and she shifted, pulling him closer once more. He would, she had no doubt, treat her better than any king would treat their queen... though most of their peers would not take kindly to their love of one another. The Gods could do as they wished, but they were all half human. The camp and others might be willing to overlook the cousin aspect, but siblings?
Rising on her tiptoes, Briar pressed her smaller, softer form against his, fingers threading into his hair as she pulled him back down for another kiss. He'd shared his desires with her, though unintentionally. Now, Briar offered up her own. Though, tailored for where they were... His arms slipping under her as he lifted her. Alexander pressing her back firmly against that wall, his mouth moving down her neck, to her breasts. Her wonder at what it would feel like to have him suck a nipple into his mouth, or have him gently push himself into her. Her voice whimpering his name. Other flashes danced through her mind. Her laying on her bed, in their most recent house, fingers inside herself as she thought of him."Alexander"His name was whispered again, as she broke the kiss, lips brushing his own.No one else can know, the Gods are Gods Alexander.... The others here wouldn't see it the same.. But I would be your queen, I would treat you better than any other could. His words offered back, her love and desire clear.
gpt
She was right of course no one else among the camp would accept this kind of relationship, there were a lot of risks between the two of them, and the gods well she wasn't wrong the gods were gods. They didn't have to worry about the risks that came with this sort of union. Yet the rewards, the taste of Briar's soft lips on his, the feeling of her breasts squishing against his body the fantasies that Briar laid out involving this very shower they were all sweet rewards that came with the risks the two were taking. He brushed down Briar's hair for a moment, and his hands trailed onward down her body, feeling her curves, and when they got to her ass, he squeezed her butt cheeks feeling just how smooth her skin was. Her voice through his mind telling him that she would treat him well, that she would be his queen it was all he had wanted to hear.
His lips touched her neck, softly nibbling away at her kissing her, playing like he would go lower, teasing her with the fantasy that she had just sent him, but dragging it out for his own amusement. When the others look at us they They will see only the illusion of two siblings adjusting to camp life. We live together because we don't want to be alone, we have separate beds set up in both our cabins, no one would guess that we will only use one.He made it sound easy, but it was also partly the truth no one would naturally suspect a set of siblings to be sleeping with one another."Besides." His voice was low almost a whisper as he spoke.
He kissed her shoulder and went lower, his lips touched her breast, sucking on her nipple, his tongue running over the sweet flesh of her areola for a moment, but he didn't linger too long. He had his own plan. He lifted her with ease spreading her legs as he went onto his knees, kissing her stomach, his lips trailing down her skin softly watching as the water poured over them. Spreading her open, putting her thighs atop his broad shoulders as her back was pressed to the warm tile. He was on his knees a place he didn't mind when it came to her, his body making an eased seat for her as he kept her legs spread apart. His golden eyes looking up at her lavender ones with mischief in his smile."The golden apple of chaos is right in front of me, I would be a fool not to have a taste."
His lips touched her pink center, before an untrained tongue touched her, giving soft exploratory licks prodding her, his eyes closed and he focused on the task of trying to pleasure a woman for the first time he didn't exactly know what he was doing, but his body was eager and willing to learn. His tongue found her clit, circling the small nub, and even sucking on it. Learning about her, at the same time warm breaths escaped him pelting her skin, as well the water that poured over both of them. Though honestly it felt like her body was a bit of an umbrella for him to take shelter with. she also seemed to weigh nothing for him to lift and carry. He hadn't even grunted when he had picked her up, and to hold her up his arms didn't tremble. There was an ease to all of this, that despite it being dangerous it felt so natural to hold her.
He moaned against her skin, finding pleasure in the taste. His body trembled not from effort, but from the pleasure he gained from finally having a taste of Briar.
human
She had no doubt that her words were correct... But Briar had opened the door that neither desired to close now that she had thrown the doors wide open. Biting her lower lip, her eyes closed as his hands moved along the softness of her body, before his hands to her ass, his grasp tightening. Briar had never had a boyfriend but she knew Alexander had just about the same experience that she had, so she didn't feel at a disadvantage. His lips trailed down along her neck, her head tipping to one side, giving him better access to the slender column of her throat. His words whispered through her mind. No one would know... He was right.
Lashes lifted almost lazily as his mouth moved across her shoulder before the softness of his lips brushed her breast. Briar's breath caught in her throat as his mouth slipped over her nipple. Gasping she whimpered softly, the sound almost drowned out by the sound of the shower. There was no doubt he'd heard that sweet sound as it had left her though. A giggle left her as he lifted her, her back pressed against the warmed tiles, his mouth trailing lower. Her teeth captured her lower lip as she gazed down at her brother. Her thigh pressing against his shoulders, her back firmly pressed to the tiles. Heart hammering she blushed as his eyes met hers, the mischief there clear. Blinking she opened her mouth, to question him, but any words were lost as his tongue touched her.
Dark locks rolled against the tile as gasped. He might not have known what to do, any more than she knew how it would feel. However her own eagerness matched his. When his tongue brushed her clit, Briar arched against him."Alexander"His name moaned, a hand slipping into his pale hair, curling there until she whimpered pulling away from the attention he paid it. There was a difference from touching herself and feeling his mouth on her, his tongue brushing against her. Briar had always found herself quick to become slick, but it was nothing like now. Her own darkest fantasy come to life and her body eagerly welcoming his touch.
She had known Alexander was strong, that hadn't been lost as he pressed her against the shower's wall, supporting her weight. She didn't weigh much, but it was still near one hundred pounds easily held aloft without strain. Blushing her mind brushed his. I liked that.... I know from... touching myself.. that too much attention there will be almost painful as it is pleasurable. I can cum.. just from it.. Her voice was shy as she admitted this to him, trying to help him. She knew her own body, much like he'd know what felt good to him, like everything else, she was more than willing to help her brother learn... Though this is likely her favorite subject she'd shared with him.

Hearing her voice moan his name sent a shiver up and down his tall frame. His hands supporting and holding her up on a pedestal even shook for a moment. When she confessed that she liked what he was doing he smiled as he looked up at her. He was worried about his performance as any first time virgin would be. He was worried that he might cum too early, one reason he had currently left his cock twitching and wanting for attention was exactly that. He had a fear that he could do something wrong, climax too early and leave Briar thinking he wasn't worth the trouble or that he was somehow a disappointing lover, none of those fears were shared they were hidden behind his smile well away from the surface, but in the pit of his stomach.
When she told him that she could climax with only the attention graced onto this small bundle of nerves and pink skin, he resumed his focus upon it with new vigor, his tongue washing over her pink bean lapping at her. Her thighs on his shoulders felt good. Wherever her skin seemed to press against his own felt warm and he couldn't help but be excited. His lithe athletic frame kept shivering from the enjoyment of it all, and his own voice escaped him in moaning breaths as he worked on her.I wanna see that.His voice over the link was more confident, excited and hungry for her.
There are very few things that would give me more pleasure than watching you squirm and cum. He supposed it was a bit weird, the link they had allowed him to tease her mentally as he continued to tease her physically as well. He was having a lot of fun with this new position of power he had over her. He kissed and sucked on her pink slit making a few exaggerated noises as he worked her over with his mouth trying to throw her into that mix of pleasure and pain, trying to get her to climax just to see if he could provoke it with just his tongue and mouth. Flicking her clit around as much as his tongue could.Cum for me Nee-chan. His voice had just a tint of playfulness as he acted a bit dirty, tossing in some hentai language just for fun.
Is it weird that I thought about watching you before?His question over the link a little more genuine than he thought it would be, this entire relationship was weird, but now came the microcosm of questions.We had really thin walls in our old place, I could hear you once or twice and well.His own mind wondered over the link showing a memory, Laying back on his bed, trying his best to stop the spring frame from squeaking while at the same time he had laid himself out naked, in a mess of covers and clothes, his hand running up and down in a quick rhythem at the same time biting his lip and trying to cover up the sound of flesh beating flesh. The heat of that room and the task at hand made him pant, his athletic frame glistening with sweat. The thick head of his member that swollen red the beating of pleasure escaping, showing her a memory of his own climax, how it had splashed out along his abdomen, dripping down the happy trail of pubic hair to his crotch, before his mind turned back to the moment at hand.
Before what had been fantasies were now the strange reality of opportunity. He had no shame when it came to his own body or desires.

The tremor through his body as she had moaned his name was felt by Briar. Pale lavender eyes met his, blush in her cheeks as she encouraged him. Shedid like what he was doing. It only deepened when he answered her through their link. She could cum, at least by her own hand by her clit alone... And when he redoubled his attention to that little bead of pleasure, she knew without question he could bring her like that. The hand in his hair tightened and her sweet moans left her a little quicker. Her back pressing to the tile, forcing her hips into him with a bite firmer pressure. The teasing of his voice made her gaps, her free hand slipping along the slick tiles. It was something about the way he teased her, what Alexander said that made her so desperate.
Her cheeks flushed even brighter as he told her to cum for him. More playfulness as he demanded she cum for him. It was followed up by him returning her sharing. She'd never known that he could hear her. She'd always tried to be quiet... But she couldn't completely muffle her whimpers or her moans as she played with herself. Fingers slick as she drove herself to that cliff and to know that he had played to the sounds she'd made. It was that memory that he had shared that pushed her over the edge. Her mind across the link whisperedfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck Alexander...Her lips echoing his name"Alexander!"Her hips ground into him, eagerly as she came.
It was different, cumming from the attention of someone else. Sweeter, perhaps? Or maybe it was the taboo nature of their coming together. His tongue, mouth on her. Her juices soaking his face. Panting softly she blushed and relaxed against the wall. She wanted nothing more than to push them further, but they wouldn't have time. "Alexander" His name was breathless on her lips."Put me down.."There was still desire in her voice. He'd brought her to her climax, she wanted to give him the same pleasure. They'd have enough time for that at least wouldn't they? She had no idea how much time had passed.
Briar had never considered herself... dirty... If you took out the whole desire for her little brother aspect out. But even now an almost cruel idea formed. No matter if they had time or not, she wanted to tease him. It was likely the closest she'd ever come to "top" energy. But there was something delicious about slowly driving him insane while they were in public. The link she'd thought could be good for battles, strategy.. but now?

Hearing that sweet tones of his sister's moans, her slight panic and repeated cursing. Alexander couldn't help but eagerly anticipate her climax, and when it arrived he was over joyed, getting to not only hear her thrown over the cliff of pleasure, but getting to see it, feel the way she clung to him, he winced slightly at his hair being pulled, but the feeling of her thighs straddling him made it very worth while. He enjoyed this moment feeling her shiver and shake in his hands as she reached a climax his name on her lips, it was the sight he had always secretly wanted to have.
Her climax also ended up upon his lips, and his face, the unique taste was salty, but wonderful to him, and even as he nodded and did as he was bid to put her down he was still licking his lips. Putting her down also meant that he finally had the chance to stand up again, and kneeling down on the shower floor was not exactly a pleasant experience. His knees hurt, and he let out a small groan of pain as he got up to his feet. "We really should have done this on a bed." He said a little regretful they had chosen the shower, that nether of them wanted or could wait till they were dry for a more comfortable place to do this."I recommend you sit not kneel."
But that was also part of the fun in a way. If they waited then they would have had even less time. As he left her sitting on the ground now, he got up and stretched, and incidentally his cock thick, erect desiring so much attention, slapped his sister's face lightly. The feeling of the sensitive red tip against her smooth, warm skin actually made him shiver for a moment, before he realized what had happened, and couldn't help but laugh for just a second. He hadn't meant to slap his dick against her like that, but there really wasn't a lot of room in the shower to maneuver.
Actually, her climax had been across his face, and they could clean it up.. the thought of his seed across his sisters breasts, and face was... a bit warming, it made him blush actually. Either way the two of them were on the same page, he had brought her to a climax, and now his body ached for attention.Be careful with it, when you touch it, don't yank, be gentle with your hands.He wanted to say for her to lick it, or use her mouth to suck on him, but at the same time those things had been his choice to perform on her He didn't want to influince her in this moment. He just had a need to be touched.
human
Slowly set on her feet, she let our a breathless chuckle when he said they should have done this on the bed. "Likely... but there is always next time"Her body still felt like it was glowing, the pleasure still deeply settled in her body. Slowly sitting herself on the floor she looked up at him, she was much shorter than him, sitting as she was it was made more obvious. She would have little choice.. Shifting she knelt on the as his cock bounced against her cheek. Laughing she looked up at him as she bit her lower lip. I mean, that wasn't bad, but not sure it's my kink Briar teased him, her eyes dancing with that laughter.
The tips he offered were helpful, but she had something else in mind. Her hand slid down the length of his cock slowly, eyes on him as she touched him for the first time. She waited until his eyes found hers before her mouth opened and the tip of her pink tongue brushed the head of his cock. She had never thought she'd be doing this to Alexander. Someone else, some day, sure. She'd seen both a little bit of porn and hentai and knew the bare bones of what she wanted to do. Briar had actually read more about sex in her cheap silly romance books than she'd seen preformed.
Her hand stroked along Alexander's shaft, her head leaning forward as her eyes closed. Slowly her mouth closed around the mushroom tip, sucking gently before pulling back. She saw this as a time to explore, see what he liked and to slowly learn what she liked. She could taste the cleanness of his skin, salty that was a little tangy. It was pleasant, the taste of him. Lips trailed down along his shaft the tips of her fingers exploring the velvety softness of his tip. Tracing along his skin, her eyes focused on what she was doing. She loved the way his body reacted. The small little jerk of his cock when his body liked something. Her mouth moved back to the head. Tell me if something feels good or doesn't? Briar was sure he would.. Her head bobbed gently and her hand moved to meet her lips.
It was amazing what read, watching porn could do for one's initial skill set. She wasn't very good, but she had the basic idea down and like Alexander, Briar was eager to learn.

I'm not sure what my kinks are, I'm keeping an open mind. Alexander was truthful through the link. This was all about experimentation for the two of them. Finding out what kinks they shared would be half the fun of this new level to their relationship. Just the feeling of someone else's smooth hand on his member was a rather intense feeling, but then his sister actually went ahead and licked him, and his entire body trembled for a long moment, his breath hitched as he realized what Briar was going to do to him. She told him to be honest and let her know when she did something that made him feel good, and he just nodded closing his eyes.
It was more than just his cock that twitched when she sucked on the swollen tip of his member his breath hitched and his entire body seemed to twitch when her tongue touched certain parts of his member. the edge of the tip was especially sensitive as he moaned verbally when she passed over it. I don't even know where to begin with this. He was trying to think and organize his thoughts as he went with through the pleasure of her motions. He breathed heavily for a moment looking down at her, meeting her eyes on occasion.
"Briar."Her name left his lips as his body shivered his knees weak. from the motion. "Your mouth feels so, good. your lips and tongue." He couldn't really contain his voice it came in panting breaths. Finally he was getting all the attention his body had craved since all of this had started. His hands moved down to her head, tangling in her soft black hair as she worked on him. He wasn't however dictating the pace or stopping her from moving. Rather he just found him brushing her hair praising her.
Don't just spoil the tip, you can drive me crazy with it sure, and I would cum if you do it long enough, but it's also painful after a bit. Play with my balls to, they are sensitive as well. It was so much easier to form thoughts and words over the link than it was to say words like balls out loud. He wasn't sure why, but it sounded dirty telling his sister how to play with him, it made him blush perhaps more than the actual acts they were doing.
human
To be fair, Briar was just as in the dark as he was. Her joke held truth though, while it had been fine, it had done nothing for her. Briar loved his reactions, the only drove her to see what else her brother might react to her touches. The praise was encouraging, but it was the tip that helped her know how to make this better for Alexander. Her free hand, that hadn't been doing much other than resting against his though moved. It moved between his thighs, cupping his balls gently, rolling them in her palm before she shifted closer.
His hand in her hair was a comfort even as her head dipped and her tongue brushed against his sack. She'd read once in a book about something like this. Gently, for she was unsure if it would feel good, she sucked on his balls.Does this feel good?her voice was clearly shy, but she wanted nothing more than to make Alexander feel good. Her other hand worked at his cock, her hand circled around the shaft with a gentle yet firm pressure... Occasionally heading to the tip, picking up precum to lubricate her actions.
Pulling back her hands shifted position, mouth moving back over his head, and down the length of him, curious how much she could take, while one hand cupped his balls. There felt like so much to do for him, the possibilities and combinations endless. Her head went further down his shaft, tongue brushing along Alexander's hard length while she sucked. That was at least until she felt the tip of him brush her gag reflex.
Pulling back, the tip of him left her mouth with a soft pop and her hand moved to take over, if but for a moment, her tongue flicking at the tip of him before starting again. Briar found she loved the way he felt in her mouth, in her hands; the taste of him.. all of it. She made a pleased sound, the vibrations of her little hmmmn of pleasure running along him.
While she was enjoying herself, Briar did feel a touch unsure, even with his reactions, touches if she was doing a good job. New to it all she was just as nervous as he had been.
gpt
The question of did this feel good or not, was met with a rather loud. "Oh fuck yes!"As Alexander couldn't really contain himself or his excitement at all that was happening in the moment. He was shivering yes, but it was more than that, the way her tongue flicked him, or the way her hands stroked him, it was like it set off this fire inside of him, or more accurately shocked his body, like every time her hand stroked over a certain position a push of lightning went through his body, when her mouth kissed him or sucked on his sack it was like a hot fire was being set on him, and he was enthralled by these new warm sensations.
"Briar..."He moaned as her tongue flicked over the head of his cock. She would feel the thing twitch, and expand more in her mouth and hands. He was panting a little heavier and it was clear that something was about to happen."I'm gonna... I'm gonna cum Briar."He was panting trying to warn her, but even so it wasn't like he wanted her to stop, his hand was still wrapped in her long dark hair. His entire body was shivering with pleasure."Don't stop, please suck me dry."
God it sounded embarrassing to say this kind of stuff out loud. But he wasn't able to really focus on the link at the moment, not when his entire body was going through the throws of a powerful climax, the first one not made by his own hands. He closed his eyes and felt his cock twitch and pulse releasing thick strands of semen into his older sister's mouth, and he could only enjoy the sight through half lidded eyes watching her take him in her mouth."Try to swallow it."
human
Briar didn't speak down the bond, but her pleasure at his exclamation was glowing. Thrilled, elated, he could have taken his pick of emotions that rolled down the line to him as his exclamation out loud at her actions. It made her feel bold and encouraged her further. When Alexander all bur moaned her name she shivered and doubled her efforts. She wanted to bring her brother to climax, share the pleasure he had given her..
The hand in her hair tightened and she gasped. The warning didn't slow her down, it only made her head move faster. His words made her giggle and even as her eyes closed, the tip of him brushing that sensitive spot at the back of her throat she whispered to him.I know I laughed, but that was pretty sexy... Her words were honest, and there was a deep desire in her voice as he began to cum. Her head boobed slowly as the salty strands hit her tongue and at his command she tried to swallow. Her throat convulsing, the demand enough for her to want to make him happy.
Only when she felt the twitching stop did she pull back. A line of spit and semen connecting her mouth to the head of his cock. Looking up at him from her knees, she blushed, her long hair still fisted in his hand. The strand broke with a snap and she smiled shyly. Leaning forward she licked at him once more before gently pulling back. Rising slowly she leaned into him, her mouth brushing his, her arms slipping around his neck, pulling him closer.
They didn't have much time... Briar knew this.. But"Kiss me"Her demand was sweet, though her body felt sated, she still wanted more. It would have to wait, but this one thing, this kiss... She could have, couldn't she? There was no coming back from this, Briar knew it in the depth of her soul. There would be no other for either of them. Damned in their passions, their love... But together. She would be his queen and he'd be her King. Nothing, not even the gods would separate them.
gpt
There was this odd intensity to the way that Briar got up to her feet, the way her arms circled around him, he felt so warm all of the sudden. The fact that she she had called his orgasm, and his requesting sexy, it all made his face turn this brighter shade of red as he looked at his older sister. His own hands on her hips almost like the two of them were dancing leaning into her as she pressed against him. She asked him to kiss her, and he obliged more than happy to press his lips against hers. He could smell his seed still on her breath, but he honestly didn't care it was more fun to hold her plush body against his own enjoying the feeling of how they seemed to fit together for a moment. One kiss melted into two, three or more making out with Briar tasting her lips trying to learn how to actually kiss a girl as this was still new to him and he was learning how they fit together like pieces of a puzzle, but it would take practice to actually learn how to kiss and not be sloppy with it.
When those kisses broke he smiled and rested his forehead against hers for a moment."You wanna talk about sexy? Just the way you stood up had me wanting another round."His tone was playful, but he knew they didn't have any time. His body wouldn't recover in time if they were going to make their next camp appointment. His hands on her thighs caressed down her legs for a moment then around to her ass. The tempting thought to pick her up and put her against the wall was there once more, but he had to break away, he had to turn off the water, they couldn't stay in this shower forever no matter if he wanted too. But a door had been opened between them.
"Indulge me for a fantasy?"He said softly brushing her hair, before he broke away finally stepping out of the shower, he felt a bit like a prune, this entire thing between them, he had lost track of all time. He handed her a towel and took one for himself working to dry himself off as best as he could."When you get dressed, put on clothes you don't mind getting ruined, stuff that is worn, or already has holes in them, because tonight when we come back to our room."He blushed for a moment giving a small chuckle."I want to rip them off your body."
It wasn't like the two of them had a lot of wardrobe to spare, they only had so much time to pack before they got here, and he still had no idea where exactly 'here' was. So the thought that they could go into town and pick up any new clothes was wrong because they didn't even have a store. What they had was all they had for the moment, but it was a request he wanted for a long time. To use his savage strength to rip open her clothes like a present on Christmas to get at what he had desired for a long time, it was a little rough, and his blush made it apparent that he still wasn't completely over that first awkward stage of this new relationship. But he was excited, energetic. He could see every part of his sister, and wanted her. He was going to be giddy with anticipation for a long time to come.

They both learned from one another, it was a slower process for neither had the experience the other could lean on. Briar honestly didn't care.. This was her biggest fantasy as a whole, not broken down like the one she'd shared of him pinning her to the wall and just fucking her... This was them, together. He hadn't rejected her, which had been a large part of her fear before she had known how he felt. Breathy she giggled as they parted for breath, his forehead resting to hers. One hand had moved between them, her palm flat over his heart. She could feel it's erratic beat as if his mind and body were still accepting everything. His first time, but more than just a first, it was with her.
His words made her smile and her face tilted to rub her nose to his, a sweet Eskimo kiss."Truly?"She hadn't felt sexy per say, but it made her blush and feel shy. there was a deep sort of pleasure to know he had thought so. In truth, she would have been happy skipping the rest of the day, but their absence would be noticed... What they didn't need was someone walking in on them. She'd been debating asking him to stay when he asked her for a fantasy. looking up at him, her eyes closed for a moment as his fingers brushed her hair back from her face."Possibly" Her tone was playful, though Briar was likely to give her little brother any wish he had. The water came to an end and he left the shower with her close behind. Taking the offered towel, Briar was unable to stop her amorous actions, or rather, had no desire to. Her mouth brushed his in a chaste kiss as she began to dry herself off. The towel buffing away the moisture that clung to her body.
Listening to him she had tilted her head and when he explained her cheeks turned bright pink and she nodded, wordlessly for a moment. How had she never thought of that before? Her eyes met his and she smiled."I can't believe I hadn't thought of that..." Her thighs moved closer together, as she thought about what he'd asked."Holy fucking hell..."Her voice trembled softly and she couldn't help but laugh."Yes, please?"Her tone was hopeful and eager. She didn't have the clothing she once had... Their rush to leave had left her with what she'd thrown in her suitcase. Biting her lower lip she hung her towel up and looked over her shoulder at him as she left the room. Alexander would have the perfect view of her heart shaped ass as she climbed the stairs.
No one would be around, so she felt no need to be shy, now that everything was out on the table. She headed for their room naked.. for it was now theirs, not just hers. Pulling her suitcase to the bed she frowned, looking down at it. What wouldn't she miss? Finally she settled on a pair of simple white panties. Not sexy, but they wouldn't be missed. Next she settled on a pair of old black denim shorts, they were a little... short and would hug her ass. Again, a win over all and she wouldn't mind him ripping them off her. Next she found her oldest bra, it was pale and had a wire that liked to poke her. Good riddance to it."I don't have any shirts I want you to rip... Do you have an old tank top I could borrow?"
She had already begun to dress, pulling on each item of clothing one after another. Her hair was pulled into a ponytail and she turned to him in her short little black shorts and bra, a smile on her lips. "Shame it will not smell like you" She had actually been really bad about stealing his hoodies and jackets and now, he knew why. Her smile was shy and fished out a pair of socks and sat on the bed, legs crossed as she began to slip them on."Do.. you have any other fantasies?"
gpt
Alexander certianly didn't seem to mind the seductive ways she moved about him, the kisses, the Eskimo affection. He didn't shirk away from any of it. Watching his sister take in and process his fantasy, the way her thighs tightened the look upon her face, he breathed out more relieved for a moment. Chuckling a little when she said she hadn't thought about that, it was something he had thought about once or twice. Usually in the winter when the cold caused them to wear more layers. He happily followed her out of the bathroom wearing nothing as well, his eyes watching the soft bounce of her ass. His thought again accediantly audible though at this point it wasn't like he was hiding them.God Her ass is perfect.
As they passed the main hall there was one creature able to see them, and Alexander swore he saw Kerberos give him a sideways glance, not so much imagined judgement or support more like the dog was visibly confused by this sudden revelation. Alexander's focus returned to his sister as she got dressed he wouldn't exactly miss those panties or shorts either. He himself worked on finding his own clothes in his bag, trying to find stuff he could wear. Tossing on a fresh pair of blue boxers, he needed pants he could move in considering they had Sword fighting and other classes so he went with comfortable track pants he had gotten as part of his P.E. uniform from school. She asked him for a shirt, and he went through a few of his own to choose from.
He settled on an T-shirt, black with a Metallica logo. It was old, a bit worn, and was a little too short on him, but it would fit Briar fine. She was a bit shorter than him, even if he accounted for the fact that it was a men's T-shirt. "It might be a bit tight around the... honestly it will look good on you." He said with a smirk. Knowing that a bit of tightness around her chest would only make it more fun to watch her through the day. Then she asked him that question did he have other fantasies. He bit his lip for a moment thinking about it. They had already gone into a very taboo relationship, he had always been open and honest with Briar so he didn't think he could directly lie to her without giving it away, but even if she was okay with one fantasy didn't mean she would share all of them. He didn't exactly know where to begin with that question."Yes I have a few other fantasies."
He put on a longer sleeved grey shirt, and thought for a moment about what to say about it."I mean I'm willing to talk about them but... You can't laugh."Alexander's face said it was rather serious as he looked at his sister, the blush, and small trembles through his body told just how embarrassed he was. This was a topic he had intended to take to his grave never having her find out about how he felt, but that door was wide open now, they both knew how the other felt, and it felt amazing. Still he wasn't sure what was safe to talk about they were already fairly taboo did that immediately put everything on the table or if he said something like'hey put on the dogs collar and let me walk you around the cabin'would he just get slapped.
He sat next to her on the bed as he put on his own socks, and then fully dressed he laid back down so his head was resting in his sisters lap for a moment."Okay so, I have a confession if we are talking about this. I'm a little afraid of some of my fantasies. I think about sex from time to time, but my thoughts tend to stray down... aggressive paths. I spoke with my counselor about it, I even had a therapist visit once or twice. So I think... I've always worried that I take after my dad. I don't really want to hurt you, but I've had thoughts about being rough, or spanking you. tying you up, I guess it falls into sort of bondage stuff? I mean we have the internet and if you look at my history it has shit like 'fake taxi' or 'shoplifter punishment' those dumb channels that are kind of a mix of blackmail and forced sex when you know everyone is a paid actor."
He really didn't want this confession to change the way she viewed him. "I'm still trying to sort out my mind, I'm not asking you to call me master or anything like that... well maybe a little, it would sound cute coming from you, but well I just asked if I could literally rip the clothing off your body, and that is the tip of my iceberg. It's fairly easy to say I enjoy the rough side of porn, but I've only ever had my own thoughts on the matter. I never thought we would get this far."

When Alexander's thought slid through her mind she couldn't but blush and smile. And to think, it's all yours. Her voice held humor and something else, far more sensual. She missed Cerberus' look at the pair, far more focused on how giddy Alexander made her feel. Before he'd shared his feelings, she'd felt alone in her desires, like a freak for wanting something she shouldn't by society's standards. But... she wasn't alone in her desires. Alexander felt them too and that was... amazing. When he handed her the shirt she pulled it over her head. He wasn't wrong, it emphasized her breasts, stretching across them and leaving very little to the imagination.
When he sat beside her, she leaned into him, savoring the closeness. Blinking, she shook her head."Alexander, I am not going to laugh"Tilting her head she peered into his face, a hand rising to brush his cheek. "I promise" Shifting closer she hugged him, head resting on his shoulder. When he laid back, head on her lap, her fingers ran through his hair. She listened while he spoke without interrupting him. A smile curled on her lips and she leaned down, her mouth brushing his."Alexander, you asked to rip my clothing off... Think of how I reacted" She'd been visibly excited at the idea. Closing her eyes Briar thought about what Alexander had told her."I have to admit, I haven't thought about it much or seen much about bondage" She'd been pretty shy in her own searches, but thinking about some of what he said aroused her.
"I would be willing to try with you though. I might not have thought a lot about it but... the idea of being over your lap and being spanked sounds kinda sexy" Briar kissed him again, this time, lingering as she nipped his lower lip, deepening their kiss for a moment. The contact was simple, but it sent her blood boiling as she slowly pulled back. "And I wouldn't mind trying to call you Master" Sitting back up, she played with his hair a bit more, thinking once again. "I would be open to trying things out that you're interested in." Smiling at him she tugged on his hair gently to get him to look at her. "There was one thing that I liked, when I was exploring such things."Blushing she bit her lower lip."I kinda always wanted to be a neko"Shrugging some she blushed more."I don't know if I'd like pet play, I think that's what it's called... But I like the idea of a tail and ears.."
Her face turned more serious for a moment as she gazed down at him."I don't think you hurt me though, Alexander and you're not Zeus. You are you. I love you..."Placing a kiss to his nose she smiled again."And I trust you. We will learn how we both feel about it together, okay?"
gpt
Alexander couldn't help but giggle a little as her words about her ass belonging to him touched his mind. Her reply gave Alexander the chance to relax. He had always been a little afraid of his own mind, the dreams he had, the fascination with seeing his older sister vulnerable, and submissive to him. He had been a little afraid that she would have judged him harshly for those wanton desires, but considering her reactions he was learning a lot more about his sister, and the way she reacted to such ideas. He enjoyed her kiss, it helped to calm him, and he held her close for a moment. His arms wrapped around her shoulders and he made a soft 'mm' noise. When she confessed her own desire he didn't laugh at her, he didn't make fun of her for it. He got up from her lap and hugged her close for a moment. Kissing his sister's neck before softly whispering into her ear."My kitten."
"That is certainly something I would want to see. You in only a cute set of cat ears, and a tail."He chuckled. "If we were in a city, I'd already be out shopping."He said with a small chuckle. It was true though he would have jumped for the chance to take her out to look at the various items, of course the two of them were trapped in camp. A camp that they needed to get back too. So giving Briar one more, deep passionate kiss, tasting her one more time on his lips. "But we have a camp to get back too, arts and crafts await, as well learning to swing a sword."
While it would have been so tempting to lounge around, they were now dressed, they had probably missed lunch, and the two of them had to get back to the classes they had been assigned for the day. Walking back into the main cabin, he smiled for a moment."You know, without this camp... I never would have thought this possible."He said softly. Their new home wasn't the best, they still had no internet, but this place had brought them closer together than ever before. Walking back out into the daylight he shivered for a moment, it wasn't exactly cold, but the air in the cabin was warmer.
When they arrived at the 'arts and crafts' location it was more a large pavillion, and it wasn't exactly paper mashe that Alexander had expected from the name. True enough Briar had been far more accurate, it was a bit chaotic, people running around forges, a group of younger campers were learning how to fletch arrows, but it wasn't all weapons of war being made here. There were some working on sculptures, paintings, it was a walk through the arts of all kinds."Okay... I take it back, Arts and crafts is not lame."
"Finally the prince and princess grace us with their presence. I thought you two were going to skip out again after we didn't see you at lunch."a youngmanwearing welding goggles among other protective equipment extended his hand to shake theirs."I'm Jacob, the senior camper of the Hephaestus cabin, this is my playground of sorts." He gestured around. "It's chaotic and more free form then other activities, we want to encourage people to have their own personal projects, find what interests them, and learn to create. But the first day is safety orientation for everyone who walks through here. Some of these activities, handling a forge, learning how to use a millstone to maintain equipment, learning how to sculpt, they all carry with them risks, and safety is a priority. But we have the tools to do everything from woodworking to steel work, a veritable open door shop class."

She could feel the tension leave him as they kissed. Briar nibbled on his lower lip gently before sitting up once more, Alexander following suit. Pulled into his arms, she sank into his warmth, eyes closing as his lips brushed her neck. "Mmmn" Her cheeks brightened at the nickname, a shy smile on her lips. She had liked it and it clearly showed with how shy she had become for the moment. Her laughter was sweet and she touched his cheek gently. "I'd have really liked that" The idea of shopping for such things together made her smile again. When he kissed her again, she leaned into him and it before slowly pulling away, her reluctance clear. "I suppose you're right" Her tone slightly pouty. She wanted to stay in with him... Though a devious thought popped into her mind.
Following him up the stairs she bumped into him, arms slipping around his waist, cheek nestled against his back as he spoke. "It's really the only bright side"Briar admitted. A kiss was placed to his back and she let him go. The walk to the pavilion that held arts and craft was a short one, though the pair was definitely late. Her cheeks brightened once more."Sorry lost track of time" She shook his hand when it was offered."It's nice to meet you Jacob" Listening to him she nodded once, her long hair still loose, swaying around her body.
She could feel eyes on her and for once, she wasn't sure why. Was it because she was the daughter of Hades or was it because of her outfit? Short shorts, clingy band top and her dark raven hair reflecting the light outwards in blues and purple. For the first time in her life, Briar felt sexy. It had nothing to do with the others looking at her, if that was even why. It was all Alexander's feeling for her. Biting her lower lip her eyes shifted towards Alexander for a moment. While she wasn't able to perfectly picture it, she sent down the line to Alexander an image of her on her knees, a pair of cat ears on her head and a tail curling around her side. After a moment, Alexander gave her a command, in this little fantasy of hers.Yes Master came her sweet reply before she began giving him head.
The image was a double edge sword, while teasing him, it wouldn't just make him horny. It would make her horny too. Though she turned back to focus on Jacob as he began laying out safety rules. Making a mental note to talk to him about a bow for Alexander she nodded when he paused and looked at them. After a moment they moved on to another section and another set of rules. While he spoke, she wondered what she would do. The idea of making weapons sounded fun, but perhaps she should stick with something less dangerous, she was rather clumsy after all. Maybe pottery... or painting.

Her fantasy touched his mind, and alexander shivered for a moment as he was trying to pay attention to Jacob. He looked at his sister for a moment, discreetly biting his tongue so that he didn't get drawn into her fantasy.Bad Kitty, do that again and I will find a spray bottle.He thought back, his voice confident as he tried to hide just tight his pants were suddenly feeling, or the way his body shivered at the knees. He took a deep breath and then tried his best to relax as he went about walking through the areas available to them. There was so much to learn, so much to work with.
Jacob didn't really seem to notice that both siblings seemed distracted as they walked them through the various tools they had available the safety requirements for them. Alexander wasn't really paying the man much attention, he had a misbehaving kitten that was linked up to his mind, and she was playing literal mind games with him. While he would have loved to hear the safety requirements for working the forge or anything else that Jacob was prattling on about, Alexander had lost his focus and was simply trying to not be aroused by the thought of his sister with cute cat ears and a tail.
"Oh, and sometimes, very rarely we will come across some enchanted metal, adamantine or some other magic that the gods have left behind to be forged into weapons. There are a few family recopies for working them, so in most cases me or my siblings will happily assist, making a magic weapon is kind of a big deal to us. So, any questions?" Jacob had clearly concluded his tour of the grounds while neither of them had been paying attention. Alexander sighed for a moment trying to think.
"No questions for now, It's just gonna take some time to figure out what projects to work on." Alexander said as he moved around the more safe areas away from the forges and closer to those who were sculpting. He wasn't that much of a creator in this regard, but he did have respect for the arts."Honestly... it's a lot to take in at the moment."
human
The revelation of their feelings and their fantasies was making Briar feel bold. It wasn't completely out of character for her, but it was on the odder side.I think we found out not too long ago I am perfectly fine if you get me wet, Master. Her bright giggle followed down the line. She had been trying her best to pay attention to Jacob and his lesson, but she had not had much more luck than Alexander and it was all her own fault. When asked if they had questions Briar's cheeks brightened a touch and she shook her head."No, I think not right now." Hands locked behind her back, Briar was unaware of how his shirt was stretching across her breasts. After a moment she tilted her head. "Actually I do. I have two."
When Jacob shifted his focus to her she smiled and nodded toward the campers hard at work. "How long do we have to decide?"He smiled and nodded. "I know, it's a lot. Some of us are sort of drawn to things, like my siblings and I. Clearly we have an affinity. Others don't. You are allowed to really do anything you want, as long as it's a craft or art of some kind. You could build bird houses if that was really the only thing that appealed to you. Though... you might get made fun of"It was clear he was joking and Briar smiled and nodded."But really, long as you're trying, feel free to dabble until something clicks"
"Okay. Um.. My other question. Can I talk to just you for a moment?" She avoided looking at Alexander and Jacob glanced at him before nodding."Sure" The pair wandered off to the edge of the huge workspace. "So, I know you said there were enchanted metal and things like that and you and your siblings could help. I don't have anything like that, but I would like to get Alexander a bow made that didn't feel like a toy?"She wanted him to feel confident. Something that wouldn't be easy if he was worried about it snapping in his hands. "He is strong, like really strong. The bows at archery just didn't seem to be a great fit." Her hand brushed her hair from her face while she waited, wondering what could be done. Was there like bartering or something similar? It would make sense... Someone would be giving up their time.
gpt
Alexander blinked when Briar asked to talk to another man alone. After all they had just revealed he had complete confidence that she wasn't plotting to ask the man out, they had if anything barely paid attention to him at all. He had never felt jealous of Briar talking to another man before, but oh man did curiosity burn at him and he felt a slight sliver of annoyance. He blinked for a moment, thinking about how to get her back for this, and the previous image she had sent to him.
Jacob listened to Briar's request for a moment and nodded."I heard a rumor he had Herculean strength, it's a fairly rare gift."He stroked his chin for a moment as he thought about it. He supposed there were a few ways he could make such a bow, he knew he had a few materials he could use."I can make such a bow, but I'll need something to make it with. I don't think I could hand him a bow made of earthly materials that would work. So, if you go back, through the gate, outside of camp, about a 3 hour hike from the entrance you'll find a river." He pulled out a smooth blue and yellow river stone."This is what Adamantine looks like before it's been cracked down and melted. For some reason the area around that river is loaded with the stuff. If you could bring me back a few of these stones, I can get you that bow what do you say?"
At the same moment she got an image from his perspective, Briar's hands bound by cuffs, a blind fold over her face, the cat ears, and tail present to the fantasy, as he held a lead in his hand, walking her through the cabin they shared. Alexander ordered the kitty to roll over, at which point he lowered himself down, and gave the kitty a reward for her good behavior, his tongue flicking against her soft clit, as his hands spread her legs wide open.
Alexander leaned back swaying slightly on his feet with an amused look on his face. However he also had to discretely move his pants up a bit so that he didn't show off to the world what he was thinking about.
human
Jealousy was not something she would have thought of as she asked to speak to Jacob in private. Alexander was the only male who had held her attention in any romantic sort of way and now, that barrier was gone? Curiosity she would have expected, but a gift wasn't as much fun if it wasn't a surprise. She nodded and smiled softly."Indeed, though I didn't know it was rarer."She watched as Jacob contemplated the request. Giving Alexander the bow would be perfect, allowing him to use one without fear. While Jacob thought, she wondered if she should also commission a sword? In truth she didn't know what her brother might need to contend with when it came to his strength. Looking at the stone, a hand reached out to touch it before nodding."I could do that."Anything else she might have said faded for a moment and Briar bit her lower lip as the image came across.
Blushing she wondered if she should provoke him further. Unable to resist the image continued of her writhing beneath him, moaning as her back arched. She had started this war, but in truth, she was more than willing to lose the battle if he proved up to the task. Clearing her throat she looked to Alexander, eyes narrowing for a moment. "You know more about this sort of thing" Her head turned back to Jacob "Would he need more than a bow? I don't know much about weapons. Would he need a sword or anything else of that nature?" If she was going to make the trip, if he needed more than just the bow, she could gather more, if she could find it.
Briar was well known in their small family for buying gifts just because she was thinking about them. Both their mother and he had seen this many times. It made her happy to give gifts to others. This would be a practical gift, one to be used time and time again. Briar doubted they'd be leaving the camp for a long time... Something about the camp while safe, made it feel like a prison too. In truth it was a mix of both in her eyes. A gilded cage meant to keep them safe while they trained, but could they leave any time they wished? She was less sure about that. Did they want to leave? It was dangerous out there, it's why their mom had sent them here."Are we allowed to just leave for things like this ore?"
gpt
Jacob winced slightly at the request for a sword, she wasn't the first that had asked about such a possibility but the answer was always difficult."We simply don't find enough of this stuff in a year to make a sword. As much as I'd love to craft one out of this stuff, it's just not something we can do."He sounded slightly disappointed as he looked at the forges. When she asked if they could leave he gave a small nod."It's not exactly encouraged, but there are three reasons why a camper can leave the grounds."
"The first is the big one, a quest handed down from an oracle's prophecy, they are the big missions or legends, like Percy Jackson trying to find and retrieve Zeus's master bolt. They are a bit of a big deal, and are some of the few times we ever get to really see our godly parent. The second is stuff like this, the camp doesn't just run on magic, there are plenty of things we need from the outside world. You can fill out some paperwork at the big house and get a day or two off camp grounds. Just know that leaving the camp for an extended period of time is a bit dangerous. And the third is choosing to go out and live in the mortal world. Some demigods don't want to stay here for the rest of their lives they choose to go to school, work and grow old in the mortal world. The camp is safe, but safe can often mean boring. Camp life can become slow if you stay here too long."
Hey so everyone in our group is packing up their art supplies, are you done chatting with your new friend, I think we have one last class before dinner. Alexander's voice echoed in her head, sounding hungry, and well he was a bit impatient too. He was clearly still in the phase of wanting her, and he seemed to be counting every second before they finally got to go back to their cabin, and be alone together.
human
She couldn't help her frown when Jacob said no, but it made sense. Nodding she sighed softly."Was worth a shot" Asking him about leaving at least provided an upside. Briar smiled softly, thinking of what Alexander earlier. Biting her lower lip she looked over to him for a moment before, her eyes lingering on him before she looked back to Jacob."Do they grant the requests easily? I'd really like to get that as soon as possible. I think it would give him a lot of confidence" Jacob smiled, finding the care she had for her brother endearing. "Normally no, but the area is reasonably safe, I can vouch for you and Alexander both to go." Smiling, she nodded as Alexander's voice came through her mind.
I am, I will be just a moment longerNodding at Jacob she lifted a hand in a wave"That would be great, thanks! I should get going though.. Don't want to be late.. again"He nodded and began returning and gathering his own tools and such as she headed towards Alexander. Hugging him briefly she tilted her head towards him."Ready to go?" Are we skipping dinner? I really hope not. We didn't have lunch after all Pale eyes shifted to him That and I hear having sex makes you hungry... And I mean... You're not just going to rip my clothes off right? You plan to ravish me as well?
The fact that she could tease him, even so subtly was enjoyable. What little she knew, the act would be considered bratty. Something that would likely lead to some form of "punishment". Would she like being punished? Briar didn't think she'd enjoy pain for no reason, but perhaps with Alexander? As they walked to their next lesson she decided to question him.I know you're a little unsure, but can you tell me some of the other things you liked the idea of? I can't help being curious as to what we might try together There was a clear blush in her mental voice as she asked.
gpt
Alexander had been trying really hard not to think about the fact that they had skipped lunch, so his answer to dinner came in the form of a loud stomach growl. No we are definitely going to dinner I need food.He didn't regret the choices they made when they skipped lunch it was the highlight of his day but it had come at a cost and she was probably right.I read somewhere that Sex can count towards a days cardio, something like 100 calories per 30 minutes or something like that.
He supposed that answered her question but her use of the word ravish made him blush and chuckle for a moment. She wanted to know more about his fantasies. He sighed for a moment trying to catagorize his thoughts a little better but nodded still he was a little more willing to talk about it considering she hadn't rejected any of his advances as they walked towards their last activity today.Haven't you ever heard curiosity killed the kitty? Man I had no idea you were so naughty, I kind of love it.
So diving into another fantasy to indulge her interest he conjured the image of him bending her naked body across the bed, a hand firmly holding her down by her neck, not chocking her but preventing her from getting up, his other hand helped to rub his ridged hard cock along Briar's ass for a moment, his voice came in like a sweet purr. You did say your ass was all mine earlier.He leaned over her kissing her cheek, as the tip of his cock found her backside entrance, slowly but not exactly gently penetrating into her ass before the fantasy faded from his mind.
Alexander gave a light smile towards her.You sure you want me to keep sending you these ideas while we are in public? isn't it a little distracting? Or do you want to take a few risks. How much do you really like wearing clothing anyway? If I asked you to take a walk into those woods with me, asked you to leave your stuff behind would you?
human
The news that they would in fact be having dinner made Briar happy. While her stomach did not growl like his, she could feel the pangs of hunger deepening.Good, I am starving! Missing lunch had been well worth it. Her risk had paid off in unexpected ways and thrilled her even now. They were more than she ever had thought they would be to one another now... though she had dreamed of what they were now. So had he, it seemed.Oh? A smile came across the bond, her next words playful and teasing.And how many do you plan to burn, Master?
As they walked and she asked her question she could see and hear some visual clues to her questions or statements. It was honestly a bit sweet. Like that blush in his cheeks, or the sigh as he tried to organize his thoughts to answer her question. Ah, but cats have nine lives and I am the daughter of the king of hell.. I think I might get a pass. Her teasing answer made her smile, though she didn't actually think that her lineage would provide her any actual such reprieve when her time came. That was not how life and death worked.
Her thoughts were sidetracked however, when the mental image came down the line. Biting her lower lip, Briar fought back the feelings that rose in her at the image. She'd never been opposed to the idea of anal. She had no idea how such a thing would feel, so teasing him back was a bit out of her depth, though she did let him get a glimpse of her feelings. Eager willingness, the way it turned her on, before whispering to himI almost moaned out loud... a clear blush in her voice. She glanced up at him and lifted a brow.
Why would you seem to think I wouldn't? There was a thrill to be had in such a request. Though, explaining her lack of clothing would be interesting to anyone who came upon her. Besides, dear brother... I don't show it like you do when I am horny. I don't see any reason to stop. I will not be the one with a tent in my pants. Her voice was the picture of innocence. She smiled up at him as they arrived at their last class.And I don't need clothing... I do think someone I know salivated at my naked body... Who was that again?
gpt
He smiled at the confession that she had nearly moaned, the feeling of eager anticipation it filled him with a small sense of power. Not to mention every time she called him master even playfully or jokingly made him smile. He wondered if anyone around them could tell that the two siblings could have conversations without talking considering how often they blushed, giggled or smiled he was sure that someone would notice they had a weird mental connection, but for now he put that thought away and just enjoyed his time. When she mentioned that he was the one walking around with a tent he tried to keep his face relatively calm even though he just wanted to laugh a little.
My dear sister, you have never noticed it before, why do you think anyone else would?He didn't gesture but thought she might notice that he didn't exactly have a bulge for two reasons. He had chosen track pants because they were looser, and allowed him to rather easily hide any erection baggy pants, mixed with a pair of good boxers meant that he could keep his erection tucked away and not showing. I mean I've been drooling over you for a while and I like to think that I was at least okay at hiding it before.
Yes he would fully admit that he had salivated over his sisters body. Every girl he had ever met had been more or less mentally compared to Briar maybe one of the reasons he had never really had a girlfriend for any amount of time or never really showed interest in girls was because of that comparison always came up short. He was about to work on another tease or image he could send to her, but was interrupted when they arrived at the arena where he had fought yesterday.
"Can you two pick up the pace we want to start up the lesson some time today." a cute if smallblondgirl stood impatiently at the center once again the two of them were put with the group of youngest campers, with another cabin master as their teacher."I am Sophia, Senior daughter of Ares. Now get a training sword, and we can get started."
human
Pale eyes cut towards him underneath dark, thick lashes and a dark brow rose lazily. Is that why you started wearing baggy jeans? It was a curious thought, that it had been affecting Alexander for so long. She had been in the same boat, she was sure, desiring the forbidden... But she was a girl. her desire didn't affect her physically. She was also likely a little less horny? Honestly she didn't know if that was true or not. Briar had masturbated nearly daily. One way to find out, was there not?Alexander, can I ask you something personal? You don't have to answer He might say no, but she asked just seconds after.How often did you masturbate? She blushed and decided to share first.I did almost daily and well.. I was curious.. There was no mistaking that shyness in her voice.
Blinking she looked to the girl almost her height and hurried with Alexander into the group. Why did they always seem to be late? Since lunch at least, was it all the talking they seemed to be doing? The group shuffled to get swords. They were all pretty simple, though not what Briar had expected. For some reason she had expected wooden swords. Instead there were sleek black steelswords with no edge to them. It was heavy and she frowned softly. Alexander would have no issue wielding the sword, but the weight of the sword would cause problems if he were to hit someone. He could easily break a bone. She on the other hand would have quite the opposite issue. Briar was unsure if she could hold the sword aloft for any period of time.
It felt like a real sword, or rather what Briar assumed a real sword would feel like. Looking around she was relieved to know she wasn't the only one struggling. Sure, it only weighed maybe two or three pounds, but holding a sword upright and fighting with it would quickly become tiring to those inexperienced or those who were not Alexander who had easily held her on his shoulders... There was a flashback of his tongue inside her and she blushed. What Briar was unaware of was she'd shared the vivid memory with her brother... It was the first real time she'd slipped.
gpt
The personal question didn't really catch him off guard, masturbation had been something he had been curious about as well, not knowing his sisters body as well as she did, he had honestly been thinking of maybe asking her to play with herself at one point so he could watch how she touched her body. Her confession that she had done so almost daily made him nod a bit.Twice a day easily. Once in the morning when I wake up, and again before I went to sleep. Honestly in the morning it's invigorating and gets the heart beating, plus it takes care of a bodily need in the morning, and at night it helps set the mind at ease.Unlike her Alexander didn't exactly have any shyness in his tone when he talked about masturbation, for him it was more a part of the daily ritual at this point so he didn't mind talking about it as much, plus they had already done a lot more together. A fact she was quick to remind him of as the image of their shower together came through his mind. A soft tone in her mind like an 'ahh' or moan came through the link, his voice followed.Can I just say that was the best 'lunch' i've ever had. It wasn't filling but 10/10 will taste again.
Taking the training sword it felt sturdy, and yet frail at the same time, it felt awkward in his hands like if he was careless with it he could throw it or break it."Um, I don't really want to repeat what happened in Archery so how durable is this training blade, and do you maybe have something... heavier?"He asked with a genuine tone but the instructor just gave him a roll of her eyes, she didn't seem to care about his question.
"Listen up class, just because these aren't sharp doesn't mean they can't hurt you or get you injured. Some of you probably think it's similar to swinging around a stick, please don't treat these things with respect, now everyone spread out a bit. We are gonna get warmed up before we start learning the basic movements."setting everyone up a safe distance from each other, where they could practice her movements, the first thing she did was actually start to lead the class in stretching. Getting them all to limber up and actually engage their muscles first. It was no incident that Alexander had actually set himself up behind and too the left of Briar, keeping to the back of the class. He wanted to give this class his full attention.
For now at least Alexander set aside their mental link, and closed it off for a moment, or at least he thought he did, he wasn't exactly sure how it worked if he could completely turn it off or if it was Briar's gift so she had more control over it than him.
human
The contradiction aside in her mind, she found it interesting that he did it as much if not more than her and then giggled to herself mentally. Wasn't there some trope about boys and masturbation? Briar couldn't help but admire Alexander's lack of shyness, it was something she had never quite achieved, save for a single time. Though.. It had paid off in spades and she blushed as he teased her back down the line. They really needed to focus.
Briar had no idea that the link had been set aside nor that Alexander had set himself up so he could focus. Had she, she might have pouted but understood. This was important, right? If they ever left the camp, the things that attacked them wouldn't be human or at least.. not really human. They would need to be able to defend themselves. Slowly the group was put through stretches, which had sounded easy but seemed less so as they moved. Her movements felt sluggish and by the time the stretching was over she felt a light sheen of sweat along her skin.
She wasn't alone at least. Looking to her left and right she could see others in the same predicament. It made her feel better at least. She'd been afraid they would both be so far behind, but it seemed that just wasn't the case. Next they were shown basic movements as Sophia went between them and corrected grips, posture and the like. She was quick, efficient and seemed to tolerate little. As she came to Briar she corrected her like the others before with clipped words and when she took too long, moving her on her own to show her. Nodding she walked away. After their posture and grip had been corrected she paired people off to practice sparring, doing the same as she had before correcting the mistakes she saw and there were a lot, from the way her voice never seemed to fade.
To her credit, while Sophia was not warm and fuzzy, she didn't seem to pick on any one person. They all needed the help and she moved from person to person like a golden hurricane barking out her orders.
gpt
When it came time to pair up for sparing practice Alexander was singled out, the class had an odd number, so when she was done helping others Sophia chose to spar with him directly. Singling him out exactly because of his strength."Even though you are a beginner you are actually far more dangerous because of your strength. A slip up from them and maybe a hand gets smacked or a person gets knocked over. If you make a mistake you could seriously injure your opponent so I'll be your sparing partner."
Alexander took no offense to that claim, in fact if anything he was more at peace with it. the last thing he ever wanted was to incidentally harm someone else or have a repeat of the bow and arrow incident where his weapon exploded in his own hands."You may swing as hard as you wish, do not hold back your strength."
That however again made him uneasy. But he knew she wouldn't have said it if she wasn't serious. So he took the first swing, and as their blades impacted he felt his arm go numb for a moment. Her stance didn't budge but he felt like he had just hit cement. Alexander's eyes went wide and in that moment as he lost his focus he was suddenly hit in the chest with an open palm the strike literally sent him skidding across the floor for a moment as he regarded the small little blond girl who had struck him.
"Get up, do it again."
"You have~?"
"Get up and do it again."She said more firmly and gestured for him to go back through the motions of the basic sparing match. Each strike it was like hitting a brick wall with his arm, and he felt himself getting tired out rather quickly especially after he was knocked down two or four more times.
"I thought that gift was rare?" He said panting for breath, he wished he had put on some deodorant after his shower earlier as is armpits had noticeable dark wet spots to them.
"It is, out of the entire camp you are the fourth to have the blessing of strength. But what you don't realize is that your strength is as much a weakness as it is a blessing. It makes you underestimate the world around you, you're sluggish, you hold back, and your leaving yourself open. You're treating the world like it's made of cardboard. But that hesitation, that restraint will get you killed it's a bad habit one all four of us have had to break. So do it again! We go until I am satisfied that you are using all of your strength."
human
The first time Alexander went skidding across the floor the group paused, Briar among them to watch. None, not even her though desired to linger and bear her wrath. While she sparred with her partner, she listened to what Sophia was saying, feeling respect for the smaller female. She'd had of course respected her to begin with, but what she sought to teach her brother was a lesson he needed to learn, for Sophia was not wrong. He did treat the world like he could break it.
It seemed sparing was all that was allotted for the afternoon's lesson. For once Alexander was being truly tested and the others were already in agony as the lesson came to an end. Limbs burning, bruises and a general tiredness lingered over the group. Personally Briar's arms felt like rubber and her skirt clung to her torso much like the other's clothes clung. They had more than worked up a sweat and Briar would need another shower. Making a face she placed her sword back where she'd gotten it from and cast her gaze toward Alexander, who was being cornered by Sophie once more.See you at dinner. She had no idea he'd set the bond aside and that her words wouldn't reach him as she headed out with the group.
"I have been informed that you and your sister will be allowed to leave the ground the two weeks after next. You are Prince and Princess... Highly sought after. Chiron has heard back from your other instructors and I will spend extra evenings with you, while your sister will learn the bow. If you both don't pass our trials before then... You will not go." Sophia looked up at Alexander, cool composure, she'd barely seemed to get winded unlike everyone else. "Every other night you will both report for further training... It's not negotiable." And with that she walked away, for it wasn't and he, the Prince of their kind was dismissed easily by the small female.
With Alexander missing, they had started anyway, the group of them already sitting when he would arrive. Briar had already begun to eat. A salad before her and a bowl of fruit. She was not a vegetarian, but Briar had always tended to prefer what one might call rabbit food. Taking a sip of icy water she sighed softly, still feeling hot from the workout they had gotten. The press of bodies didn't help that feeling.
gpt
With the link on pause her words never reached his ears, and it took ten minutes before Alexander would eventually show up to the dinner table, bruised, sore, and tired he stood beside his seat at the head of table one, beside his sister, his arms felt like noodles in the moment, and he was also tired. It was rare for him to get a proper work out, he had never really done any weight lifting because of his strength, and today he now had someone who would actually put him to task. He grabbed his cup and pulled back a drink feeling cold fresh water hit his lips and help with some of the pains he was dealing with. But it was a lot to take in that he was now being taken to task.
He looked to his sister who also seemed tired."I can see why they put sword fighting at the end of the day."He said before he picked up his plate, and walked over to the fire tossing in some of the meat as his offering to the gods, something which felt awkward now that he wasn't the first one to do it in the line up. When he got back to his seat he was finally able to collapse for a moment and then start working on the meatloaf, potato's and vegtables he had sat down with. One good thing about the enchantments it provided a well rounded meal. Even if his sister seemed to want to eat like a rabbit.
"You're going to be getting extra bow and arrow lessons, every other day after dinner for a couple of hours. Apparently we are going to be leaving the camp for two weeks after next."He didn't exactly know the full story there, he assumed they would get more information on what that meant when the time came.
He looked over at her plate. He wasn't exactly disturbed by her choices in food he knew her well enough to know her apatite but it worried him, and when he spoke out of concern. "We are actually doing a lot of physical work now, if you don't start eating a more expansive diet your going to end up hurting your body down the line. You need more protein."A thought crossed his mind and he quickly picked back up the link, as he sent her a mental image.
Putting Briar under the table, the cloth hiding her from any onlookers as she sucked him quietly off under the table. His rock hard cock twitching inside of her warm mouth giving her a small taste of a different kind of dinner though one she had earlier today. Giving her a bit of seasoning of dessert because after dinner if they wanted too they would be free to return to their cabin, and he was most assuredly tired and didn't really desire to stay out with other campers.

Pale eyes followed Alexander as he moved, watching as he made his offering to the gods. Briar wondered if they even cared. She had done it as well, they all did, but she couldn't help but be curious. As she ate, Briar listened to Alexander tell her about the extra lessons, a brow lifting. It made sense and she nodded and went back to her food, working through it methodically when his voice distracted her again. The image he posed to her made her squirm in her seat. They both knew how that felt, the pleasure and joy. She added in a kitty tail and ears as well as another device that he might have killed to have. A remote controlled egg, so he could tease her even as she gave him head. In the picture, she was dripping with her need even as she swallowed his seed.
Leaning into him she stole a bite of his meatloaf with a smile."I suppose you are right. I can start tomorrow?"Briar was getting full, but she knew Alexander was right. She would need to eat a more balanced meal if this was, and it certainly seemed like it would keep up. A few more bites were stolen from his plate and she pushed some of her salad to his."Well balanced, yeah?"Her smile was sweet as she rose from the table. Snagging a peach she crossed her legs and leaned back some, eating the sweet fruit. She could taste it's honeyed sweetness as it ran down her throat and pooled in her stomach. The food grown at the camp was fit for the descendants of gods, no one could argue that.
Briar lingered until he too was ready to go before rising. Before he'd gotten to the table she'd talked with some people who were not scared to talk to the daughter of Hades. She'd learned there was cooking and cleaning details, much like the pegasus, they would rotate with the Hermes cabin for their turns. Dropping their plates off she walked away from the roaring fire in the direction of their cabin.Not even one complement of how I looked. She was playing with him, but she was acutely aware of how she looked in the clothing he planned to ruin. Too small shorts that clung to her ass, the shirt that pulled tight across her breasts, her short legs made to look miles long in the short shorts.Shame and here I thought someone wanted to rip my clothes from me.Briar couldn't help but poke at him playfully. She wanted the compliments and she also perhaps wanted to goad him into not showing restraint when he did rip them from her body.
Entering the cabin, she left the door open, knowing he wasn't but a few feet behind her. The air-conditioning made her sigh with delight, eyes closing. But.. Something had been on the coffee table. A elegant lacquered blackbox rested on the table, inside was a small assortment of things and she gasped. What almost looked like a beginnersset for BDSM, candles, lubricants, condoms and more buried underneath. Groaning, she covered her face with her hands. This was mortifying... A simple white card lay on top, scrolling letters clearly hand written.
"Bright side... we don't need to go to a store?"Her eyes lingering on what she could only assume was a pair ofears and beneath that a tail."On the seriously disturbing side... just... Fuck" Turning to look at Alexander, she stepped out of the way so he could see the goody box her father had left them.It's kinda.. creepy isn't it? Her father was hades though and very much showing his support. He likely didn't even find it creepy, he was just a loving father, providing what his daughter and nephew needed.
gpt
They had to stick around and mingle for a little while, but honestly after all they had done he was happy to blame fatigue and retire to their cabin on the edge of camp away from the rest of the onlookers where the two could rest in private. Her comment about how no one had complemented her looks made him feel kinda annoyed at everyone else in camp.Well if they can't see that you look amazing that's their loss, more for me I suppose. Oh and don't remind me, I'm looking forward to seeing those clothes in tatters on our floor.
Walking back into the air conditioned building he let out a sigh feeling more relaxed as he closed the door, the glass wall meant there was always a risk that they could be caught in some act, it worried him now that they were more intimate with one another, at the same time it faced away from the actual camp and towards the ocean giving them a frankly amazing view of the horizon. However his view like hers was shifted towards the box. When Briar opened it his eyes went wide for a moment, he felt kind of uncomfortable as he looked around the cabin. On the one hand yeah this was great, it helped a lot, the condoms especially were something he had been kind of worried about and now they had some form of security that they could really go at one another.
the plug tail was another thing that he was excited about. He actually picked up the soft tail and looked it over."Is that how you imagined one being attached?"He said somewhat curiously for a moment. She had told him that her ass had belonged to him, and he had felt her excitement, but the plug was... well it wasn't small in his hand. He looked at the box a thrill, and yet he looked around for a moment. When he had envisioned her with a tail he had usually thought of something that would clip onto her panties, or just an anime image, he hadn't really thought of the real world butt physics that went into the toy he was now holding.
"You know I kinda expected this more from my dad then yours."He said softly."But... at least it means he doesn't hate me." No father would give a gift like this to their daughter if they didn't at least approve of their partner on some level. He picked up the whip next looking it over. "this is actually the one time i really wish I had google, because I have no idea how to actually use some of this stuff." But then his eyes caught it, the leash, and fuzzy collar and his knees shook his body shivered with excitement. He blinked looking it over. So many fantasies just became a reality in a moment.
"Well... it's creepy, but you've seen my cabin. I feel like a bit of voyeurism... is a bit o a price to pay for comfort." He looked around."I still kind of wish my cabin was an option."Then again his cabin had an actual marble statue of Zeus directly staring at it."Well... Lets take this stuff down stairs."He picked up the box and walked to the bedroom down the comfortable stairs. To their bedroom, and put the box down on the table as he turned back to look at Briar.
"Before we go about, ripping and tearing your clothes off, and playing with toys that I don't know how to use... should we come up with a safe word? Or like... talk about this at all?"He said softly unsure how exactly to start this conversation.
human
I meant you, sillyBriar's voice held laughter as they walked. She'd wanted him to comment on her appearance and while it might have been fun to see if Alexander would be jealous, it wasn't something she needed by any means. The only opinion she cared about was her brother's. By the time they'd reached the house, she was glad to see it. Her body ached and before or after, she'd talk him into a bath. Along with the expansive shower, she recalled the large bathtub. Relaxing in it sounded heavenly. All those thoughts vanished when she came upon the box.
Looking at Alexander as he lifted the tail she blinked and nodded."Yes.." her voice seemed hesitant, she'd seen a few porn videos with the tail. it was why she was in part curious about it all. Shifting her weight from foot to foot, Briar's eyes moved back to the box. A frown forming on her lips as she looked back to Alexander."Why would he?"A hand rose to touch his forearm."That would be like me hating you. I am not your dad's biggest fan, sure and I am sure my dad likes him even less... But you?"She shook her head."I don't think my dad would hate you, you did nothing wrong"
His next words made her smile and she pushed him gently."I am sure we can figure it out together"Laughing she shook her head."No thank you. I get wanting to look out for us, but either of our dads or mom watching us fuck isn't on my list of things desired."She looked upwards and raised her voice"Ya hear that?" Watching him pick the box up she nodded and followed him down the stairs. The box was placed down on the bed and she met his gaze with a nervous smile.
Her eyes softened and she nodded, closing the distance between them. Rising on her toes, her lips brushed his. The hiss was more of less chaste and as she lowered to her feet once more, a hand found his. "I think that would be a good idea." Her thumb rubbed over the back of his hand and Briar smiled softly."Let's tackle the safe word first" Tipping her head to the side"Maybe.. Medusa?"A shy but altogether dorky smile came to her lips."Cause she turns you into stone. Stone would stop things" Pale eyes met his and her smile softening. "I think maybe tonight, we can pick a few things to try? Sex being one.. Clothing ripping second and maybe one more?"
gpt
Ah.He could have sworn he had complemented her, but instead he just decided that since he could literally show her what he saw, he would just do that, going through his memories of all the times during the day that he had quietly looked at her cute butt, the outfit definitely did a lot for her, but he may not have voiced exactly how much he had appreciated it.I will make sure my opinion is more vocal next time.
She asked why the gods would hate him, and he shrugged. "Their gods, they do wrathful, vengeful things all the time. It's not like I've ever met your father, or mine for that matter."He supposed he could chalk up a few things to 'daddy issues' but he wanted to pass on the rest of this conversation now was not the time. He nodded at the suggestion of medusa. "I like it." He said with a nod of appreciation. He regarded the box, she was right they had to pace themselves so only working on three options at the moment kept the scope pretty narrow and focused he took a few breaths trying to calm down. Her kiss, and her hands upon him helped, and he just pressed her a little closer, his hand on her waist pulling her into him a bit more. While his other hand held hers, it was almost like all the dancing lessons the two had taken as kids.
"The pool?" he said softly. He looked to Briar."I'd like to go skinny dipping after, I feel like it would be a good way to unwind and relax for the night, We have that pool out front. It's a bit risky, but no one is gonna come out here at night, and it's not like it's illuminated if they did. We could hide pretty easy."It wasn't really a S&M, thing, nor was it something from the box, but honestly the box would be with them for a long time, and maybe it was best to pace themselves first and foremost. They wanted to take this slowly, so why not just end this night with relaxing naked in a pool under the moonlit night? It was a calming image to be sure.
"now, about my little fantasy, clothes ripping." His hand left her waist and he pressed it gently to her cheek admiring her smooth face for a moment, drawing her in for another soft chaste kiss. Though he pulled away from her after her giving her a grin. "I want you to run from me." He said looking at his wrist like he was wearing a watch. "I'll give you a five second head start."

Her smile was soft, growing as he showed her what he'd witnessed and even adding he'd compliment her more. Thank you. Briar had never had a boyfriend before and Alexander was somehow that and more.Sorry, it just feels nice.. knowing. There was a shyness to her voice that seemed to linger as she spoke, though, there was a warmth. Alexander made her feel good, with even the simplest of things. As they walked, she wiggled the butt in question for him, a playful tease.
"That's fair. I wonder how many of us have never met them."Frowning she couldn't help but wonder why they kept their distance. In the modern world, such a thing was honestly frowned on. Briar recalled her words earlier. They were basically deadbeat parents. She'd at least heard from her father, even if she'd never met him. How many were like Alexander? His words pulled her from her thoughts and she chuckled."I think it's only because you seem to have an ass fixation"She teased him. He did seem to favor her ass, not that she minded. Snuggled into his side she looked up at him.
"Hmmm. While I like the idea of the pool.. could I offer an alternative?"Her lips pressed to his chest."Let's take a hot bath and then maybe trade massages? I saw some oil in the box for massages"She smiled and hugged him closer to her. "But I will let your decide, Master" The word felt odd in her mouth, unused to it as she was, but she still enjoyed saying it."I will happily do either"When his hand cupped her cheek, Briar pressed it into his palm. The kiss sweet."Mmm yes?"Her eyes widened and she giggled."Okay!"She didn't hesitate, turning on her heel she ran up the stairs, taking them as quickly as she could. For a moment she lamented his longer legs.
Her laughter trailed behind her as she moved, she wanted to put a good amount of distance between them, though five seconds wasn't much. She'd made it to the living room when she heard him behind her. Putting the couch between them, she prepared to circle it. Her breath was coming quicker now and her eyes danced when he came into view. Maybe next time they could play this outside... Being caught by Alexander in the woods, taken against a tree or on the soft bed of pine needles with the stars above them sounded lovely and it would allow for more of a chase before he won his prize.
gpt
The suggestion of a hot bath, and a massage, her suggestion was far more personal than his, it was a great idea, and he nodded, feeling that same shiver of pleasure as she called him master. Though one comment he couldn't exactly let slide was when she said he had an ass fixation, that got a bit of a glare before he simply clarified. "I am a man of culture, I appreciate the entirety of the female body, but it is a lot easier to get away with glancing at someone's booty than it is their chest."He said with a playful huff.
He waited for a few seconds while she scrambled up the stairs, he had a similar thought, that this place simply didn't allow for a wide range of motion. That doing this in a forest or in his mind field of tall grass, would be far more playful than running around their home. When he chased and followed after her he almost tripped on the stairs for a moment, but hit his stride quickly. The dog didn't seem to fully understand or appreciate this particular game mind you. Cerberus growled at Alexander as he watched the man chase his sister around. But aside from that the dog gave no further reaction than verbal disapproval.
Alexander was already tired from the training, he felt sluggish, but his longer stride helped him, as the two circled around the sofa and short living room once or twice, before Alexander jumped her by hopping over the sofa, and in one clean motion his hand grabbed her and pushed her not so gently onto the soft plush sofa. His hand caught the collar of the shirt he had lent her, and as he he pulled there was a satisfying sound of fabric ripping as he pulled that shirt apart. Exposing the old bra underneath. As his fingers pulled along the fabric it was like claw marks ripping apart a present and exposing the sweet rewards under the wrappings.
"mmm, finally mine."His tone was playful, and also aggressive his previous workout had him already sweaty and now he was kind of panting as he held her down. his arms could easily lock her into place, his strength made it easy to hold her down to the sofa as he towered over her.
human
A smile curled on her lips."My apologies. That is a fair point." Briar stuck her tongue out playfully."Not that there was anything wrong even if it was true"He had a valid point, it had been more than looking at her ass. It had been the tail and the other comments that had led her to that assumption. Her lips pressed to his shoulder, a sort of apology for her assumption while he explained what he wanted. The idea thrilled her and she had taken off quickly.
Cerberus didn't understand their game, but beyond growling at Alexander, made no move to interfere. Round and round the furniture the siblings raced until he jumped over the sofa. A squeal of laughter left her as she found herself pinned to the couch, breath coming quickly as she looked up at him. She watched with eager eyes as his hands moved the collar of her shirt, the wet sound of fabric tearing making her shiver. Shifting along the couch, she found herself well and truly pinned, which Briar found... she liked.
Pale lavender eyes darkened a fraction and she nodded."Yours"The words echoing his own. Being his was something briar had always wanted. This fantasy come to life? Good god she was horny and even with the fatigue that lingered in her limbs, she felt alive with energy. Playfully, she fought back against his pinning, struggling just enough to make him tighten his hold on her, but clearly not hard enough to make him actually think she wished to be free.I never thought about you chasing me, or pinning me down before Her voice was warm. But.. I like thisBriar smiled and turned her head to gently nip at his arm.
gpt
The affirmation that she belonged to him, the playful nature of her struggle making him hold her down a little tighter. The feeling of her body squirming under him turned him on. He smiled when she admitted that she liked the feeling of the chase. He grabbed her wrists putting them firmly above her head trapping them with one hand his other hand was able to grip her jaw for a moment, allowing him to lean in, and kiss her passionately and deeply. When the kiss broke he smiled enjoying the strange feeling of power and joy at the playfulness of it all. It gave him a pleasant feeling.
"It's a lot better than what I imagined."He said with a small grin, keeping her wrists secured he was able to move himself straddling her stomach as he kept her pinned down, but he had to let go of her wrists for the next part as his hands grabbed on her bra, Ripping apart the bra from the front was a difficult move, but his unyeilding strength meant not even the wire could resist him for more than a few seconds as he broke open her old bra and revealed his sisters breasts."and I'm glad you were willing to indulge me in this."
Looking down at her bare breasts he couldn't help but smile he was so hot at this point his own shirt was starting to feel hot against his skin. "Course now I'm curious dear sister."He leaned over her for a moment. His eyes going up from her chest to look her in the eyes for a moment. "Are you ticklish?"The way he grinned was almost malevolent keeping her pinned to the sofa, her body exposed for a moment, he couldn't help but want to torture her just a little. His fingers working on exploring her body to find those sensitive weak points.
human
Alexander held her down firmly and briar couldn't help but wonder if he liked her token struggles. She liked it. The way he pinned her down further, arms raising above her head. Her face lifted into the kiss, hungrily returning it. He only held her wrists in his one hand and she pulled at them, unable to help herself, to see if she could get free. Her hands however did not move and she couldn't help but giggle."Worth a try, even if I knew I wouldn't get free" Like the people in movies who tested their restraints, it was almost human nature to try even if you knew it was futile.
Alexander seemed to be enjoying it though and Briar smiled as he said it was better."Yeah? How so?"Wrists released, she left them above her head. She felt his fingers press against the softness of her breasts and Briar inhaled, heart racing as she felt her bra give way underneath his strength. Moaning softly as he exposed her breasts. "Mmmn, it's not just for you Master" smiling softly."I might not have thought of this before now, but it's definitely making me horny" Her cheeks blushed with the admission, but how else would they learn if they didn't tell the other they were enjoying it.
Blinking, she looked up at him, her eyes going wide."No! Alexander!!!"The tone of her voice was a warning that she couldn't follow through with. Gasping she tried to wiggle away from his fingers, laughing, as she thrashed against him and the couch. Briar was indeed quite ticklish, and almost everywhere his fingers landed made her squeal and giggle until she was left panting beneath him, her breasts rising and falling quickly."Please" she gasped between breaths "No more!" Her sides aching slightly form his sweet torture.
gpt
She wasn't the only one who was feeling aroused, watching her squirm, struggle against him, especially with the sweet torture and the feel of her soft skin. The feel of her body under his. He was very hard in the moment. As she asked him to stop tickling, he smiled, seeing his sisters weaknesses exposed made him shiver for a moment. He lifted himself up grabbing his own shirt he tore it off his own body with relative ease, throwing the tattered remains onto the ground."Okay no more torment, or games. I want you now."He said with a soft purr to his voice as he got up from the couch. He picked up his sister bridal style."The truth is, I like this more than my fantasy because now it's all real, and I don't have to wake up feeling alone. I can live in this happy dream."
"Back to the bed now." Carrying her was an interesting feeling. It called up an illusion of them being newly weds going to consummate a marriage. A thought which was both amusing, and a little sad, because there would never really be a wedding for either of them, there couldn't be with the relationship they had chosen to be apart of. It wasn't a realistic option. Throwing her onto the bed, he was able to grab onto her shorts, tearing them apart with the excitement and fervor of unwrapping gift. the way his strength allowed him to rip through the fabric, the clothes tight to her body may as well have been cheap wrapping paper as well.
The moment the last few shreds of cloth left her body, and she was left in mere tatters to cover her he couldn't help but gaze at her for a moment. "You are so sexy."
human
Pinned beneath Alexander, she could feel how hard he was, it did nothing to help her own arousal. A whimper left Briar and she looked up at him, panting softly from her tickle torture. Watching Alexander rip his shirt in two, Briar felt her mouth go dry. Alexander was her ideal, he had been.. for as long as she could remember. "Fuck," Her voice was strained and she giggled after a moment, a smile slowly spready across her features, unable to help herself, Briar said"I know, I can feel it,"Her pale eyes glittering in the lights of the cabin. Laughter filled the space as he pulled her into his arms.
The thoughts he had, didn't plague Briar, she was his... for as long as he'd want her. She'd be his queen, his lover, his toy eagerly."Yes Sir"Her arms slipped around his neck, leaning in, nibbling at his ear. Had she thought about it, it might have saddened her a little. Every little girl at some point or another imagined their wedding, at least, she had. She was far too happy though to let the realities of what they did took from them both.
Airborne for a moment, a squeal of laughter left her. Briar felt her body bounce once, before Alexander was on her. Her shorts shredded under his strength, her panties having been caught at the same time, both falling to either side of her hips. Shifting along the bed, she pulled the remnants of her clothes away, pushing them off the bed before her fingers hooked into his belt loops, pulling him down onto herself. Kissing him, Briar nipped his lower lip."No, you,"In her eyes, his strength, his desires and who he was all made him far sexier. Biased, no doubt.
Leaning up into the kiss, her hands played with the button of his pants, one of her slender legs slipping between his own. Briar might have been a willing submissive, but she wasn't without her bratty side, however playful it was. Briar was finding herself falling into the role, into his own fantasies, willingly. She wanted him to take her. Before today, she might have had images of her first time being sweet, but tonight? She couldn't help but want for some rougher attention, spurred on by his own desires. "I'm yours,"the words whispered against his mouth,"I will not break,"They both knew that was a lie, but more than the lie, she trusted him to not break her.
gpt
As she pulled him onto the bed with her, he returned those kisses with eagerness. He felt such a thrill as she started to pull down his pants. He moaned as she kissed and nibbled on him, and was all too eager to return those eager kisses. She said that she was his, and that she wouldn't break he couldn't contain the shiver that went through his body traveling down his spine and shaking his hips and knees. He slipped out of his jeans and boxers leaving him as nude as her as he just dropped the clothing to the floor, their bed was going to be a mess by the end of this day."Mmm, I love you Briar."
She said she wouldn't break and his heart pounded in his hears for a moment, he was so thrilled, and couldn't be calm about this. He didn't want to pause, but a glance to the box told him that he had to be responsible with this. So he did regrettably have to pull himself from his sister, holding up a hand to tell her to wait for a moment as he got to the box, and retrieved a condom. Her father had told them to be safe after all, and he didn't want to piss off the god of the underworld, or have any accidental pregnancy happenings. So he opened the small package and pulled out the rubber. It took him a moment to figure out how exactly to apply the thing to his cock. More because it was first time really using one, and he was a bit clumsy as he rolled it up along his shaft. He couldn't help but chuckle a little as a thought crossed his mind turning back to his sister he giggled again."Sorry it's an immature thought."
"But it's not every day one gets to deflower a Rose." He couldn't help but chuckle a little more. but as he approached the bed, he reached out and grabbed Briar by the ankle and in one quick pull was able to bring her entire body to the edge of the bed. He leaned over her as he stood at the edge of the bed, and his hips touched hers. A smile on his lips, as he looked down at his older sister. Leaning a little closer to her as he looked her in those beautiful lavender eyes, his cock rubbing her pussy for a moment."But you are wrong."
"I am going to break you, by the end of the night you won't be able to think." His voice had a taunting tone to it. He lifted her hips, his cock finally finding the entrance to her pussy, he didn't really need much more foreplay she was already so wet that he felt like he could slide in, plus the condom had it's own lubrication to aid in Alexander pushing his thick cock inside of her. Even so he felt like he had to actually push his hips against hers for a moment because it was definitely a tight fit.
human
The words may not have been needed, but they sent a thrill through her body as they kissed.I love you. He had offered them without hesitation and her heart sang, for it didn't know or care about the taboo nature of their love,"I love you too, Alexander," She might have called him master, but in this instance, she wanted to call him by his name, driving her point home. It wasn't the idea of a master that made her love him. No, that was all him, it had always been him... would always be him.
His pants had hit the floor, Briar had promised not to break and then he had paused. Rolling to her side, she watched him, her pale eyes hungry as he moved to the basket of goodies her father had left them,"Ah, probably smart,"a smile curled on her lips as she watched him open it and then figure out how to slip it on. Briar's mind was completely focused on what would be happening and as he rolled it along his shaft, she gave him a playful pout,"Next time let me do that?"The reason was simple, she wanted even more excuses to touch him. His laughter made her smile, a brow lifting in question, "Uh huh, well what was it?" His answer made her giggle and shake her head at him.
Alexander's hand curled around her ankle and with ease he turned her back to her back and pulled her to the edge. A squeal followed by laughter as she slid along the bed. Her hands rested above her head, watching him as he leaned closer,"Oh?"Her head tilted to one side and she lifted a brow. The next words made her swallow, hard, "Alexander.."His name whispered. The threat didn't scare her and Briar was unsure if that was good or bad. It wasn't that she didn't believe him, oh no, if he said he'd break her, she trusted he would; the confusion came from exactlyhowmuch it aroused her. Surely she shouldn't have been so horny at the thought of being broken...
Lips parted as he began to push into her, gasping. It didn't hurt, it felt amazing.. She could feel as her body slowly accommodated his cock. He felt so big as inch by inch he slid further into her. Her hands curled in the bedding, and she leaned up watching as her brother took her virginity and she his.. The feeling was unlike anything she'd felt before and rather than go slow, Briar wanted more of the feeling and her hips lifted some, moaning softly, her head falling against the bed,"Holy fucking hell,"the words moaned.
gpt
He hadn't expected it to be returned. He thought maybe he had said it too early, but the truth is in their unique situation he had been telling Briar that he loved her for years, as a brother, as a friend, and now as a lover. It felt easy to say those words, and hearing them back just confirmed that no matter what the two of them were doing even if society thought it was wrong he knew it felt right. He smiled when she said that next time she should be the one to put the condom on his dick. He liked her touch, he hadn't thought to ask her to do it the first time, but he would remember that."You can do the next one, I don't plan to just use one tonight."
Then of course was the reality that he was in the moment thrusting his hips into hers, his cock molding her pussy around him, shaping her to fit him perfectly, and she was in the moment tight. It was their first time, it was clumsy and awkward to get going. But it was also bliss, he didn't want to take his cock out of her, even with the rubber wrapped around him as a protective barrier it felt silk smooth and honestly if it wasn't for when he looked down he probably would have forgotten it was there. The wet sound of their flesh slapping together, along with moans and cries filled the air.
"Oh, fuck!"He was definitely glad that their cabin was far away from the others, he honestly wasn't sure if the room was able to contain all the noise of them fucking. The bed squealed under them, every time he thrust the entire bed shook against her. Maybe he was pressing too hard, but the bed springs let out a groan every time. Fucking was the right word for it, it was a lot hotter, and messier then say making love.
He pulled out of her cunt for a moment needing a second to breath, but as he took those breaths, he grabbed Briar and threw her onto her stomach, rolling her over. He dragged her back towards him, lifting her ass into the air, and took her pussy again like a beast thrusting back inside of her after only a few moments barely even catching his breath as he grabbed her long raven black hair.
human
The love had always been there, it had just evolved. They were as far from strangers as they could be and though their relationship had changed, it wasn't new, just different. It didn't even feel wrong, unless he thought about what others would think, to her, being with Alexander was, right, perfect and her destiny. She would be his queen, his pet, his everything. Her smile grew at his words, unable to help shivering at the implication of these words, unable to help that playful side that only Alexander brought out in her,"Promises, promises Master,"Her words almost a taunt, as if daring him. Would he? Yes, did that mean she didn't want to goad him into doing it? Not in the slightest.
Alexander pushed into her further and it was his name she moaned, happy that they were not near anyone else... Briar might have been able to keep quiet, but she didn't want to. She wanted Alexander to know how good it felt to her.. She could feel as her body slowly accepted him, molding around him like a velvet sheath. When he began to thrust in truth, Brair's mind felt like it splintered. She had known her own fingers, his tongue, but nothing else and goddess, nothing could truly compare. The other things had felt good, his tongue her second favorite. Between their combined moans of pleasure she could hear each time he thrust into her, a wet sound of flesh on flesh.
As he fell into the motions, grew comfortable and confident, he started to thrust harder, her small body bouncing with the bed after each powerful thrust, her hands fisting in the sheets, as if it would keep her grounded to this world somehow. As she grew confident, her hips rose to meet his and for a moment a thought popped into her head. She'd read something one time about after a girl's first time she had trouble walking. Briar had always thought it was more an analogy, but as she lifted her hips to meet a powerful thrust, she wondered if she'd be able to stand in the morning and then she wondered if she'd care. The idea of indeed being fucked senseless adding to her pleasure.
When Alexander pulled out suddenly, Briar whimpered, her body feeling the absence of her brother. Gasping as he manhandled her, flipping her to her stomach and then pulled back into him. Briar moved as he clearly wanted. When he thrust into her her moan was a near shout of pleasure. Hair in his hands, her head pulled back slightly. Whimpering she pushed back against him, best she could, eyes closing."Fuck, fuck fuck" Whispered between breathy intakes of air..

In the new position Alexander had the ability to hold Briar's hair, to bend her upwards and watch how each thrust of his hips caused her breasts to bounce or her body to shiver. It was an amazing sight. It was also empowering and pleasing to him, not to mention the way his cock was still hammering into Briar. From his perspective he was being careful, he wasn't being gentle with her, but he knew he could break her if he did the wrong thing especially with her hair in his fist, but at the same time it was fun, it got out a lot of the tension he had felt about all of this out of his system. Now that the two were fucking like animals it actually let him relax more get into the flow of the motion as his balls slapped against her with each thrust he let out his own moans.
Along with the power to set the pace at which his cock tore into her pussy. He could touch and grab any part of her. One of his hands had her hair, but the other was free to leave her hip and grab one of her soft breasts squeezing on the soft pale flesh, feeling how his fingers could squeeze her, or how he could pinch and pull on her nipple. He was rough with her, mostly because he needed to make sure that she wouldn't break if he was rough. Her cries, her moans they were so pleasureful to him, and he added a few of his own."Yes, oh gods yes."He muttered for a moment it all felt so good, but it wasn't going to last.
The tightness at the base of his spine told him when he was getting close, when the climax was bound to happen, and while he could bite his lip and try to stall it out, he knew he was about to reach the edge for him. It was all still so new to him."I'm gonna cum." Of course he had protection, he was wearing a condom it wouldn't matter if he came inside of her or not, he knew that. Still there was a more tempting option, he pulled himself closer to his kitten for a moment. HIs cock burrowing deep as he leaned over her kissing her neck before he spoke into her ear.
"Your choice, inside you, or on you. Where do you want my first climax."
human
Her body was arched against Alexander, with his hand fisted in her hair. It exaggerated the movements of her body, the ways her breasts and body bounced with each thrust. Briar didn't mind the angle he had her bent at or the small flashes of pain. Briar was also more than happy to be vocal for her brother, Her moans both a display of her pleasure, but encouragement. They were both so new to this, Briar wanted Alexander to know she was enjoying herself. His free hand moved to her breast and she whimpered at the pinching of her nipple, eyes closing.
Briar wouldn't break but she might hurt after, though in her mind it would just be a reminder of this night. Each thrust from her brother brought her closer to that edge. When Alexander told her he was close, gasped. The knowledge that he was close adding to her own pleasure. She loved her brother, but there was something behind how wrong it was that they were together. Pulled against his chest, Briar whimpered, head tilting to give her Master better access to her neck.
His question made her blush and her head turned, nipping at his earlobe,"Master picks"She had no issue with either. She knew he was wearing a condom, so even if he came inside her, they were safe. She could also look into getting onto the pill. There was more than one reason to be on birth control. The still in their moment was driving her crazy though and she lifted her hips some, pushing back onto him,"Please don't stop, not yet.. Please.. I'm close too"There was a desperate quality to her voice, a need for them both to cum. One hand moved to cover the one on her breast, her nails dragging down his arm,"Please Alexander"
gpt
The desperate tone of her voice was one thing that fueled him on farther. Even after she had given him the choice of what to do when he came it was far more interesting to feel her hand scratching upon him, pleading for him not to stop. He supposed it wasn't really a choice at all, the two of them would have to cum together. His hips slapping hard and fast against her wet and hot thighs as he held her, tugged her, and felt her own hips backing against him showing just how eager she was for him to fuck her brains out."Oh gods!"
His breaths were coming in quick but loud panting moans as he held her tight against him. Feeling himself loosing his mind for a moment. His back was actually starting to hurt from the effort, but it was a good kind of pain, something he enjoyed, he was certain he could be loosing his mind for a bit. His body moved on instinct against her. Before finally he hit that last thrust his cock deep inside of her, for a moment feeling himself cumming hard inside of her. He finally let go of her hair, and breasts, letting her drop for a moment as his hips still rubbed against hers grinding his cock inside her to make sure he got out every last pleasing drop."Briar!"
When he finally pulled out it was a strange feeling, lonely almost as he was suddenly disconnected from her, but at the same time amused as he could see how much of a wet mess his older sister was. He playfully gave her rear a smack. He pulled the condom off, the feeling was a bit weird like removing a second skin with how the pressure had pressed it too him, not to mention it left his cock gooey for lack of a better word covered with his own trapped semen. He didn't mind that it was a little messy it only proved that it had been the 'safe' option, but as he laid down next to his sister his breath and heart rate started to settle for a moment. He panted as he felt the world spinning for a moment."Oh, Fuck wow. That... that was amazing."
"Kitten, I am covered in milk." He actually couldn't help but laugh at that joke a little, his cheeks a bit red, though that could have been from how hard his heart was beating.
human
She had indeed been needy, so close to her own orgasm. It might have broken her had he stopped, her pleasure just moments away. He hadn't though, her pulled her tighter to him, thrust into her harder. Oh, Briar would be sore later, but it couldn't have been said she didn't enjoy the act that would later on be the cause. She tried to help, with her limited mobility, their hips slapping together wetly. Briar did not hide her pleasure from him, her moans loud enough to wake the dead.
Briar almost forgot he held her aloft, her nails biting into his skin as they came, within seconds of one another. His name was cried out, eyes closing as she fell from that ledge with him. Falling forwards she gave a small squeak, though not far from the bed's surface it had startled her. Laughing she pushed her hips back against him, her torso almost flat on the bed. Panting softly, she felt Alexander pull out of her. That loss he felt shared... Though they had both orgasmed, he fit, her brother as if they had been meant to be.
Gasping she opened her eyes and rolled to her back after the smack to her ass. Panting her eyes stared up at her dark ceiling. Shifting closer, she laid her head on his arm. Letting her eyes drift close, she could feel her heart racing beneath her breast. One eye opened and she rolled to lean over him, her dark hair falling to the side as she gazed down at him. A soft purr vibrated in her mouth, it felt perhaps a little silly, but who else other than Alexander could she be silly with?"Is that so Master?"Watching him with lazy eyes she wondered if he would ask her to lick him. Kittens and milk was meant to be a thing, after all.
Her body still felt amazing, even with her high slowly dropping. Her body didn't hurt yet."You know, Master, when I can't walk tomorrow, it will be all your fault." There was no anger, just teasing in her voice. Leaning down she nipped at his chest, hair splaying along his stomach some, as she trailed sweet kisses along his skin. Briar had loved just how her brother had used her. She was happily submissive for him, but she didn't think she could allow anyone else to use her as he did. It was more than it didn't sit well with her or even trust... It was something else. She wasn't sure she'd be as willing to submit to a stranger."I love you"The words whispered against his heart.
gpt
The feeling that came with his older sister cuddling up to him, her resting head on his arm. he found it all so wonderful. More so when she teased him, and called him master. A hand casually brushed down the sides of her framed body. Enjoying the sight of her, but more so cuddling her as he felt her kiss his skin. He moved his lips down and pressed them gently down onto her forehead."I love you too, being with you like this is a dream come true."He spoke with a soft tone as he snuggled up with her.
"But you know we aren't done yet. That was just a warm up, the night is still young my queen."His hand ran over her softness for a moment. She had already probably guessed his next command, after what he had said about being covered in milk he probably didn't even need to explain what he wanted. But he wanted to say it anyway. "Lick me clean, and we can go for round two." It somehow felt unsatisfying though to just send her off with out any reward so he did pause for a moment before looking down at her naked body, and her thighs.
"What's more, if you lay on top of me, I should be able to clean you in the same way. I'll lick my kitten's pussy while she laps up her masters milk."Gods just saying this stuff outloud made him want to laugh for a moment, it was a lot. It made him blush but it felt somehow more fair, even if it didn't need to be fair, even if his sister probably would have enjoyed doing so without any interaction from him, it was a night where he wanted to be giving with her, where he wanted to play with her body and explore her just as much as she probably wanted to play with him and explore him.
"I want to go till I'm tapped out, do you think you can hold up to that?"He was a little worried that his strength and endurance could outlast her, but then he had never really had sex either so he had no idea how many times he could actually go before he became exhausted.
human
The trail of his hand along her skin made Briar smile, eyes closing for a moment, savoring the petting. Her smile grew as Alexander admitted this was like a dream come true, he wasn't wrong. Briar had thought about him a lot, in those darkest hours while she'd pleasured herself. It had indeed seemed like something that was just not meant to be. Yet here they were, laying together naked and happy. When Alexander informed her they were not done, she chuckled softly. "Stamina of a god, my king?"His title changed for a moment and she nuzzled her cheek against his chest.
Smiling, Briar shifted, getting ready to do as she was asked. His next words made her pause and look at him, her cheeks flushing softly. Chuckling she leaned over him, stealing a kiss. "That was dorky," she couldn't help but tease them. Just because they had become closer, didn't make them any less than who they had been."I loved it though." And she had, she loved all aspects of her brother, even that dorkiness. Shifting, she crawled over his body, exposing herself to him, as her hand curled around his shaft.
"We will find out, won't we. I promise, I will not hesitate to let you know if I need a break." It was on both of them to be able to tell the other if they needed that. Briar could help but still be playful as she wiggled her hips above him, her tongue lapping at the head of his cock. She took care as she licked him clean, long slow licks as she cleaned her brother's seed from his cock. Like before, she didn't mind the taste of him, though she didn't care for the slightly latex smell that lingered. Shifting she slipped the head of him into her mouth, a small echo of the blowjob from that morning. Moaning, the vibrations travelling down his shaft.
gpt
Alexander chuckled a little he could admit that his lines were all a little cheesy, it was fun to play around and be a dork, and he knew his sister enjoyed it. He was glad that she enjoyed his sense of humor that he could say these kinds of things without worry, and not be seen as strange. He knew she would tell him if she needed a break, and he would make sure to do the same, but in the moment he was enjoying this all too much. His tongue touched her pussy tasting her sensitive flesh softly and slowly.
He still enjoyed the taste, but now everything that the strange taste of latex mixed in, which wasn't nearly as enjoyable. He couldn't help but think of a particular image in his mind of what this would be like if they hadn't used a condom. Would he be so comfortable if instead of the latex he was instead lapping up the mix of raw sex? Would he hesitate to eat his seed out of his sisters pussy? It was a strange thought, and the mental image of her with some dripping cum soaked pussy was oddly tempting. As he sent her the image it was almost like he was bidding the question of what she would think. Of course the two had promised to be safe, and such a thought while tempting he doubted either of them were anywhere near ready for what could end up happening because of it.
There was also the growing pleasure of her sucking on his cock, it sent shivers through his body. His hands ran along her thighs for a moment as he looked up along her. The taste of Latex was oddly off putting, but he knew of one place where he wouldn't have to put up with such a taste. with her ass too him he really had to ask himself how brave was he to explore her body? His hands gripped the cheeks of her ass spreading it open. She had showered with him, she was hygienic, it was as tempting as her pussy if he was honest. His thumb gave her anus an explorative poke just to see how she would react. Before he leaned and kissed tentatively, his tongue at that point just worked with the memory of how he teased her pussy, but working on her backside entrance.
human
As she licked along the long line of his cock, an image hit Briar. It was the same, though rather than the taste if his seed alone and the rubber taste of silicone, she imagined tasting herself along his cock. Gasping she lowered her head, nipping at his thigh in response. The idea did arouse her, but they would need to take precautions before trying anything like that. She'd need to be on birth control to start."Naughty,"The word was whispered against his thigh before she shifted again, mouth sliding down over his cock once more.
Briar couldn't help it, she loved the feel of him in her mouth. The taste, even now. Alexander had been clean for a while now, but she was enjoying herself. Both with her mouth around him and his tongue inside her. Her moans had said as much, Briar was very vocal. Licking at the tip of him, she made soft pleased noises at the bead of precum that gathered at his tip. She was excited that he wasn't spent, that there would be more.
Her almost kitten like licks paused as Alexander spread her ass. Shifting she looked over her shoulder at him. The gentle touch of his thumb made her eyes closed. She hadn't really considered what it might feel like to be touched there, but it hadn't felt bad. It was the press of his lips and then the touch of his tongue that made her moan, her head falling forward to his thigh. Her hands curled on either side of his thighs, as she moaned again."Alexander"His name was whispered, breathed out, a sigh of pleasure.
Turning her head, she wrapped a hand around him, gently beginning to stroke him. Watching as he hardened further in her hand. A smile on her lips. This would be a night neither of them was likely to forget. Not as they explored one another. Leaning in she licked along his shaft again, biting her lower lip."Mmmn~ I like this."There had been no doubt, but she wanted to tell him too. To let him know that she liked what he was doing.
gpt
Playing with Briar's ass wouldn't have been nearly so satisfying if it wasn't for the sounds she made as she started to squirm or the feeling of her pause. For some reason it felt like he was winning something when he could inflict so much pleasure that she had to stop from her own tasks, the sound of his name, and the confession that she liked it all made it so much more sweet. He smiled for a moment savoring the fact that she liked what he was doing that he could make his big sister squirm around with pleasure under his touch.
"Can't argue with the result."He said softly to himself, happy that she squirmed about under his touch He took a moment to stop and suck on his middle finger making sure it was soaking wet for what came next. His finger pressed to that soft asshole entrance, his tongue had made it softer and wet, letting him softly and slowly push in to her warm insides. Testing the waters with playing with her asshole."We gotta get you ready for that tail of yours right? train you up to get to that plug."He couldn't hide the amusement from his voice as he pressed into her."It's tight, hot, and it kinda feels like it's sucking on my finger."He said softly.
He started to gently massage her insides with his finger pumping in and out flexing his finger a little to widen her hole, but he could only get past the second knuckle of his middle finger. He paused everything else he was doing, watching her, and testing her reactions from this new activity."I don't think my cock would fit tonight. My finger barely goes inside."He said softly.
human
Her cheeks burned with his response to her noises and her admission she enjoyed what he was doing. Briar should have wondered why the sweet stimulation stopped, but rather than question it she moved back to licking Alexander's cock. The taste of the latex had faded and it was just his skin and the lingering salt of his seed. Sucking on the head, Briar's eyes had closed when he pushed the tip of her rear entrance. Her entire body stilled and she had to fight the urge to bite down as his finger wormed inside of her. Moaning around his head, she whimpered softly.
His words were almost playful and made her whine softly, around his cock. Slowly pulling back she lapped at the head of him to answer him. "Do you need to train?"She honestly didn't know, but she trusted Alexander, if he thought it best. If she was being honest, his words, his teasing did make it hard for her to focus. She wanted to give him pleasure too. Her hand stroked him, slowly working him up again, feeling his body react to her touch. Whimpering she looked over her shoulder at him when he mentioned her ass and his cock.
She couldn't help but pout. "I think you could.. But you couldn't take me like you did before." People had anal sex all the time, far as she knew there hadn't been training."Master would need to control his strength and be gentle." At least to start, then again, what did she know. Gently she pushed back against his finger, biting her lower lip, eyes still on him."But I was looking forward to that, after all our teasing about my ass.. It is yours, after all."
gpt
There was a satisfied shiver that ran up and down Alexander's spine as he saw the way she pouted and looked at him. He considered what she was saying, and felt the way her rear pressed against his finger. It was a sight to see as she pouted because he knew she wanted. Hell he wanted it too he had teased her all afternoon about her ass. So slowly he pulled his finger out of her and paused to think on what he should say or do about this. Of course now the idea was pretty firmly in his head that they would have to continue, to play with her, and give anal a try.
"Your dad gave us lube right?"He said softly thinking it over. He knew she would be tight, and well that was what Lube was for. He pushed her gently off of him so he could stand up for a moment. Only for a moment though as he remembered what Briar had asked the last time he had went for a condom."Okay, We will give this a try, but there is a good chance it might not work tonight."He said softly. He wasn't exactly sure what 'not work' meant. In his mind she could be too tight and perhaps that came with the risk of injury, but either way he took a wash cloth and cleaned his hands looking at briar.
"Okay, get a condom and some lube, get me ready for you."He said giving her a smile."We will give it a try, but I expect to hear the safe word if you feel like it hurts too much okay? I'll do my best to be gentle and control my strength, but only you know if something will really hurt you."
human
Briar could see the way her words appealed to him, and made him consider what she said. Biting her lower lip, she let the wheels of Alexander's mind turn. She had hoped that he would at least want to try with her, that her temptation had been enough to entice him. Her smile grew at his question and she nodded."Yeah, he gave us pretty much everything but birth control."her voice was bright. Pushed off of him, she rolled to her side, watching Alexander as he stood.
"Yay!" She beamed at him from where she laid."I know it might not, but I want to try. You did tease me about it all day..."She offered him another playful pout. If it didn't work, then they could say they tried and start training her to be able to take him. Not as much fun, to be sure, but it would perhaps be a fun lead up to the first time. A thought came to her mind and she smiled wickedly as she sent it down the bond. She was bent over his lap, naked as he slowly worked the cute stainless steel plug into her ass, the gemstone catching the light as it slid home. Rising from his lap, she got dressed for the day, her ass full and only the two of them aware.
"Just a thought, either way."She chirped. As Alexander told her to get a condom, Briar rolled off the bed and moved to the little basket of goodies. Tearing one off she smiled back at him, tearing the edge of the foil with her teeth. "I promise, Alexander."Rising on her tiptoes she kissed him, lingering before pulling away."I know that you don't want to hurt me unintentionally or to harm me. I will let you know if it hurts too much, if I need you to slow down.. If I need it I will use my safe word, okay?"
Kneeling before him she pulled the condom free, slowly rolling it along his cock. Her mouth pressed to his hip as she slid the rubber along his shaft. Fully sheathed, she stood up."I don't know why, but I did like doing that."Perhaps it was the intimacy of the act, or perhaps it made her feel submissive. Either way the simple act had pleased her. Turning she found the lube from the basket and handed it to him."Where would you like me to lay, Master?"
gpt
It felt a little like he was being worshiped, it was a strangely invigorating experience. Feeling Briar rest her lips against his hips as she began to roll the condom along him. He brushed his older sister's hair gently for a moment. It felt a bit more like a ritual of some sort. It felt very different from the way he had put it on earlier and in truth he kind of liked this feeling. He smiled watching her, and when she said she had no idea why she liked that he chuckled."You aren't the only one that enjoyed that."He said with a sigh. He let her get up and she handed him the lube.
That part he wasn't entirely sure how to work, so he put it on his hand first. feeling the strange coldness of the silica gel. He rubbed his cock for a moment getting the condom slippery and wet as he looked at Briar. The view definitely helped keep Alexander hard as he did this. Her body was definitely something he could admire. She asked him where she should lay and his smile had a bit of a devilish quality too it."Who said anything about laying down?" He grabbed her by the back of the neck. It didn't take a lot of strength to guide Briar pushing her up against the nearest wall.
He bent her forward, chest and face pressing against the wall. "If we were upstairs this would put you on display, up against the glass for all too admire, but only mine to touch." He said softly. His other hand was still wet with the lubricant, and he stood pressing her against the wall, making sure she couldn't struggle away from him, his other hand slowly slipped a finger into her ass, feeling how different it would be with the lube, as well as helping the hole get even more wet, his tongue probably didn't do enough on it's own to make this possible."I want you to spread your ass cheeks for me kitten."
human
That image of her worshiping him would have been very appealing to Briar. It wasn't far from the truth even. In her new role in his life, she wanted to make Alexander feel like the god he was. Humanity might not worship him like they once might have, but she could.. with her mouth, hands, body and soul. The smile that curled on her lips was almost shy and she pressed a kiss to his cheek as she rose. Watching him lube himself up, she got distracted for a moment... and when she came to her senses and asked him where he wanted her to lay. His answer made her blush and giggle."I am glad then."
The hand at her neck made Briar's eyes close as he led her to the nearest wall. She let him move her, adjust her just as he wanted and a low whimper left her as he teased her. The idea of others knowing was scary, but in the light he painted it? Arousing as hell. "Such a tease,"Briar quipped unable to help herself. She felt his finger slip against her ass and she bit her lower lip, the pleasure she felt from just a single digit making Briar's body react.
His order had her hands moving behind her back, hands gripping her ass. Biting her lower lip as she exposed herself to him. The position felt vulnerable, submissive. She had encouraged Alexander, thinking it was possible. Wanting it to be possible. As long as she was well lubed and he went slow, she couldn't see any issue. "Like this, Master?"she could feel the cooler air play against the lube that had pooled around his fingers as it pushed into her.
gpt
"Oh if I had a camera."There was some truth to the old saying 'take a picture it will last longer' In the moment Alexander really wanted to take a snapshot of the way she was splayed out for him. It was a sight right out of some kind of porn video, only instead of watching it he was an active participant and Briar looked far better than any actress he had ever seen in a porn. Stepping up behind her Alexander gripped her waist with a hand. He knew that he would have to be gentle with this one, but she was lubricated, and ready. There was only one more step to this.
He rubbed his cock along her ass for a moment, before the thick head of his cock pressed against her anus, he bit his lip for a moment feeling tense, but knowing he couldn't do this as roughly as he had done before, this was a more delicate operation than before. He breathed out a deep sigh feeling the resistance as he was pushing his cock into her tight hole he let out a breath and tried to relax.
The lube helped as his cock head slid inside her, and he felt just how warm her insides were, and how tight, Alexander let out a whimper as he breathed out a quiet"oh fuck." He said softly. He had so far only managed to push the head of his cock in, barely a quarter into her ass, and he stopped to breath. Just the tip inside of her now testing the waters slowly and with purpose.
human
The words made her face burn, not that Briar was against her brother keeping pictures of her. In fact the idea only served to arouse her. Not to mention her position, her pose, left her vulnerable, exposed. All for him, her brother.. her Master.. her lover. His hand slid around her waist and Briar's eyes closed as she waited for the press of him against her rear. She knew Alexander wouldn't hurt her and in the worst case, she could use her safe word. She felt him rub himself against her rear, before he began to push. The little Briar knew about anal sex told her to relax and she did her best, feeling as her ass slowly let him push himself in.
The lube certainly helped, though even with it, the process was slow going. A moan left her as he pushed the head of his cock into her.. Nails bit into her own skin, her breathing picking up as she felt Alexander pause. His whimper and the quite"Oh fuck"made her whimper in response. She had never thought much about anal sex, but just the tip of him felt amazing and she waisted as her body slowly adjusted around him.
Moments passed and Briar became restless, "Alexander,"his name a demand, a plea... She didn't know the best course of action, but she gently pushed herself back into him. Just for a moment, half an inch more of his cock sliding into her and then she pushed herself back against the wall, that half inch sliding back out. It drew a throaty moan from her."Gentle, but I won't break.. Please"
gpt
Clearly Alexander was taking too long. He let out a hefty moan when Briar pushed back against him. His body shivering and his cock twitching inside of her. He knew she was right, she wasn't going to break as long as he went gently. He shook himself a little, and eased himself closer to her. His chest pressing gently into her back, as his arms went from her hips to wrap gently around her stomach. Holding her closer helped him to slow the beating of his heart that felt like it was up in his throat with how fast it was going. He kissed Briar's neck for a moment, enjoying the feeling of getting to be close to her naked body.
that's when his hips sank slowly against hers, pressing more of his cock into her asshole. He didn't try to push hard against her, in truth he didn't have too. It felt warm, and intense, if he was going to be honest with himself it was actually a lot better than the feeling he got from her pussy, it was tighter, less accepting, and yet the attraction between their bodies made it feel like her body was sucking him in. He breathed slowly as his cock sank between the soft cheeks of her ass, not stopping till his shaft was fully inserted inside of her.
When his balls finally sat against her warm body, his eyes were half lidded for a moment. His arms around her."mm, Briar."he breathed her name with pleasure for a moment. He kissed her neck softly."It's in, how do you like the feel of your brothers cock splitting your ass."His smile carried such a mischievous look to it in the moment.
human
Her impatience had shown a little, with her pushing back against him and Alexander seemed to take the hint. Arms slipped around her waist, pulling himself closer to Briar. The embrace made her moan, savoring his closeness to her. She could feel as more of him slipped into her ass. The process was slower, but more consistent and she could feel as she filled with her brother's cock. It felt like an eternity, his hard length pushing into her tight ass, though it was likely only minutes before his hips cradled her ass.
The fullness wasn't something she could articulate. They'd both been virgins and she'd been tight, yet it hadn't been like this. There had been a building tightness in her throat as he'd slid into her, agonizingly slow. Lips brushed her neck and she whimpered softly, her head turning slightly, her head nuzzling against his gently. His question was fair and she nodded, trying to explain how she felt."I like it,"that was the easier part, "I feel so full.." It felt good, but she wondered if she could orgasm from this alone. There was only one way to find out.."How do you feel, in your sister's ass?"
A hand rose and pulled one of his arms lower, his fingers pressed against her clit, a silent demand. He was her Master, she'd agreed to it, but she wanted to feel him touching her there. As he fucked her ass. Though her demand came first, she moaned,"Please.." Nuzzling her head against his, she wondered what it would feel like when he moved inside her, how good it would feel.

Having now gotten a taste for his sister's body, and tried all three of her holes it was strange to articulate just how it felt inside of her. Each hole was different. In her mouth he had felt her tongue be an active welcome participant. Inside her pussy it was kind of like his cock was melting, It was warm, and accepting if a bit tight. This though, not only was it tight, but there was a pressure to it. It made his entire body shiver. Now that he was fully inside of her he kind of had to admit that this one was probably his favorite out of the three options, at least from what he had played with so far. Having only been a virgin till earlier today sex was still very new to him.
His question was echoed back at him. along with her giving him an affectionate nuzzle. Alexander's hand was guided down by Briar he kissed her neck, and softly nuzzled back into her for a moment as his fingers started to brush the pink sensitive nub of her clit. He breathed for a moment trying to think of the best way he could tell Briar how he was feeling."It feels so good." He said softly. "It's like your body is trying to crush me, but it's so soft and warm. It's rougher than the others. Feels great."
Course now he was inside of her, and that meant that he could start moving. The first thrust, pulling back and pushing forward again caused their hips to slap together enough that it actually echoed lightly through the room. His hand on clit was like a wall pinning her down and keeping her locked in place as his hips moved. He let out a slow moan for a moment as he started to thrust his hips against her, his cock starting to move inside of her ass. He didn't mean to be rough with her, but he did notice there was a building pressure every time he thrust against her. At the same time he slipped his middle finger inside of her pussy, as his thumb continued to press against her clit. Using both her holes in a rhythm.

She felt so full, Briar could feel the difference between when he'd been in her pussy and now.. So full and it felt good. When he'd suggested it's been worried she'd not like it. It didn't seem like it could do much for her, though, how would she have known. She'd touched herself, but Briar couldn't say she'd ever explored messing with her own ass. Yet, her brother filled her up and she found herself panting softly, wanting more.. There was a slight shame to it, yet that too aroused her. There was no shame in wanting Alexander sexually, or wanting to be his plaything. It was the fact that anything he wanted, she'd try... That she liked everything he did to her.
His cheek rubbed back along her own as she nuzzled him and it made her smile, bright.. happy. Briar loved that he loved it.. loved that she'd talked him into it. His fingers had already started to rub her clit and she'd been able to stay quiet for a moment, but soon she was moaning for him, eyes closing at the sensation. It made her want to squirm.. made her want to push back into him again.. So she did just that. Pushing herself into his fingers for a moment, she pushed herself back on his cock, gasping at the twin sensations."Fuck"
Alexander seemed to understand her need, her want and he pulled back this time and she whimpered at the feel of him sliding backwards. A pleasure soaked cry left her when he thrust back in, their hips slamming together. Eyes closed as his fingers assaulted her clit, thumb moving to take their place, his fingers dipping into her as he fucked her ass. Briar's hands scrambled at the wall, she'd have killed for something to hold onto, something to ground her as he baby brother slowly drove her insane. A hand reached back and Briar gently tugged Alexander's head closer to her neck..
There was one thing to be said about his kitten, she was a demanding, horny little thing.

Turns out his little sister was a demanding lover, as he felt her pull his head towards her neck, he kissed and nibbled against the soft skin. He wasn't complaining moaning as his hips slapped against her. Enjoying the feeling of his fingers exploring her pussy, and the way their hips fit together when his cock explored her ass. He was just as horny as she was and enjoying every second of it all. He bit down on her shoulder lightly. A place where any bruise would be hidden by a shirt, sucking on her soft skin and leaving a visible hicky to claim his territory. A small mark she would have to hide tomorrow, but that he would know was there on her skin.
"Trust me, I have an idea." His fingers fed her greedy pussy, his thumb rubbed hard against her clit, but he stopped, pulling his hand back for a moment, his cock suddenly slipping out of her ass. He needed a moment to change things up. His hands grabbed his sister under her knees and lifted her entire body up off the ground awkwardly. It pushed his chest into her back as he carried her able to better support her. He sat down on the bed, and basically put her on his lap.
It took a few too many seconds to set things up. for him to put his cock back inside her as she sat now on his lap. But he had now positioned them in front of the mirror stand. It set up the perfect view. His hands under her knees raised and separated her legs. "You'll need to play with your own pussy for a moment, but." He gave her an experimental bounce, and she would feel the difference as his entire cock was pushed inside her ass pushing her all the way back down on his lap, only to lift her back up, and repeat literally bouncing her up and down on his lap in plain view of the mirror. The mirror showing off every private detail of the two's passionate lovemaking.

There had been perhaps a moment of worry that Alexander wouldn't like that she was so demanding with what she wanted, needed as well.. Then his mouth pressed to skin and she moaned. Kisses and nibbled offered in response to her demand. Briar was in heaven, blissful, sinful heaven as her brother's fingers toyed with her pussy, his cock filling her ass. Whimpering she bit her lower lip, as pleasure arced through her body. "F-u-c-k,"the word moaned, the syllables stretched out as Alexander bit down on her shoulder, sucking on her skin. He'd leave a mark and Briar found it incredibly hot. No one would see it, she knew it, but being marked, beinghis?
"Hmm?"She blinked, lips parting as he pushed his fingers into her, thumb on her clit and suddenly they were gone. A whimper left Briar, but she bit her lower lip, trusting him. Then his cock left her and she gasped, moaning. The feelings vanished, if but for a second as he lifted her into the air, giggling she turned slightly, careful to not off balance Alexander. Placed in his lap she blinked.. And then he started to slide himself into her ass again. Moaning, Briar rested her cheek against his as his cock slid home. Knees lifted, her legs spread. Alexander said she'd have to play with herself, before she could answer though, he bounced her on his cock and she moaned, the sound low, ragged.
Her eyes opened and she watched as he bounced her on his cock. Briar watched in the mirror as he bounced her, his cock filling her so fully with the movement.. she could see her breasts bounce. Her pale eyes were hungry as she watched in her mirror, before she found his own eyes. Watching him she slipped fingers into herself. Eyes holding his, she fingered her pussy, on full display for them both to see. She could only keep her eyes on his for so long, before they drifted back down, watching his cock vanish into her tight little ass.
"So close.. Alexander.."His name was whispered and she turned her head, catching his mouth. Briar kissed him, her desire, hunger evident. Pulling back, her eyes moved back to their bodies."Cum, Alexander.. please.. cum in me.." Her voice desperate, her fingers moving faster, clearly ready to orgasm with him.

He never would have imagined that his older sister could be so lewd, but here they were locked eyes through a mirror, watching as she openly fingered herself for their enjoyment watching as her ass bounced up and down on his cock, he was in heaven in this moment. To him it was something he wouldn't have imagined, but it was also something he embraced and welcomed. Knowing that this energy would carry them forward and give them a lot of ground to explore going forward, it wasn't one night of pleasures it was the rest of their lives they had to look forward too, and it all started here. He watched as she was getting close, his own body was getting there as well he could feel a tremble through his body, as his cock quivered, everything was hot at this point.
In all honesty it wasn't hard to bounce Briar up and down like this, but he was starting to feel exhausted, his body, their bodies had a healthy sheen of sweat. What had started with no effort now had Alexander shaking with each and every thrust up and down into her ass. His entire body was in bliss, but he agreed he was close. He closed his eyes and breathed heavily."Together."He said under a small moan, before pushing her down, all the way down onto his cock and letting go of her knees so he could wrap his arms around her stomach embracing her in the moment when he finally hit his climax deep inside her ass.
His eyes opened and he let out a loud sigh, watching and feeling the final throws of pleasure go through their body, his hips made soft squeaks against the bed as he grinded his cock against her insides filling the condom with his cum. When he pulled out it was slow, not really wanting to exit her body at all, but knowing that they needed too, also his body felt like it was over heating, his heart was still pounding in his chest, and his sister's weight on him was oddly crushing him, it felt like his entire body was being baked by a very warm, very comfortable oven. He kissed Briar's cheek, but needed a few moments to let the cool air of the underground Cabin. Breathing came in quick, but soft pants as he tried to cool down. This was one reason why he had originally suggested a dip in the water outside, he had heard how humid, and sticky sex was, and now well he was more or less covered in it.
He let out a small chuckle for a moment a thought hitting him as he breathed, one that came voiced a moment later."Our bed smells like incest."He honestly wouldn't have it any other way."You... are a goddess."He said softly.

Her need had come with her begging and when Alexander decided when they would come and how... It made something inside Briar fracture. A demanding, needy pet, she seemed more than willing to allow him to call the shots. More than that, she craved it. The elder of the pair, if just barely, she'd never been the more dominant. When the situation called for it, she often followed in his wake. It took away the fear of making the wrong call, of failure. It seemed though, that submissive tendency was more than appreciated by her younger brother.
"Together."
The command had been all she needed, and she fought to keep her eyes open even as Alexander sunk his cock deep into her ass, her fingers working frantically for her own release. When she shattered, the goal of watching their climax vanished, her eyes closing tightly. Panting she rode her orgasm, glistening fingers falling from herself, back pressed firmly to his chest as she slowly opened her eyes. In the mirror, Briar met his gaze. She could feel him still moving a little within her and she gave an exhausted chuckle. Their bodies glistened in the low light of her room. Much like Alexander, Briar felt hot. Shifting she gave a small whimper. Pulling herself up she could feel him help her, and his cock slid from her ass. Lips brushed her cheek and she closed her eyes for a moment.
Her laugh was shocked, bright and unadulterated. That sort of laugh when one caught someone by surprise. Eyes dancing she shifted, falling to the side, sprawling across their bed. Gazing at his back, she blushed and stroked a hand across his back. "Only half, but I will take the compliment,"her voice was warm with love and laughter."Besides, the son of a king deserves the best." Her breathing was slowing and after a moment she pushed herself to sit."Fuck, it's hot down here now..." Briar pushed herself to her feet and after a wobbly moment, she walked past her brother. Her hand brushed against his chest, her finger crooked at him. It said follow me. It was late, no one would see them.
Briar walked up the stairs slowly, giving her brother.. master.. lover.. the view of her hips swaying. Up the stairs and out into the pool. Moonlight danced along the surface of the water, disrupted by the ripples her body made. Moaning softly she dove beneath the dark surface. Like a fish, Briar slithered through the water, it's surface distorting her naked form. Coming up for air, she looked up at him, a smile on her lips.

Alexander savored the sweet sound of her laughter. At the end of the day whatever they were siblings, lovers, half gods, and more the only thing that really mattered to him was if he could make his sister smile and happy. Which it seemed in this moment he could not only please her physically, but emtoinally as well and he let out some laughter of his own. When she mentioned the temperature he couldn't help but agree It was rather uncomfortable down in the basement. It didn't really seem to air out, which was odd. It seemed like it should have been the coolest room in this house. Yet he was sweating, and feeling his heart beat as he recovered.
The feeling of her hand on his back made him groan for a moment still sensitive. Feeling her shift and get up he wondered if she was about to get dressed. Instead her motion to follow her was something different an entrancing offer to follow. He nodded and followed without question almost drawn to her. He watched her hips bounce, her perfect ass go up the stairs and followed her with a smile on his face, when she walked across the open air glass of the cabin at first he was curious what she was doing so late at night, but when she arrived at the pool in the crisp night air, feeling the slow summer wind on this perfect star filled night, the moon looking down over them.
He followed a few moments later, falling into the water, and enjoying the refreshing feeling of the cold refreshing dark waters, before he floated back up to the surface to take a breath. Swimming with her, following her in the small pool of water hidden away from the rest of the camp under starlight."See I knew this would be a good, refreshing feeling."He had been the one to suggest a swim back when they had first talked about doing two things. The water and open air. Helping to refresh, revitalize but also to ease his body. He was sore after all he had done today, and while he could easily lift his sister the repetitive ups and downs and holding her up while he had eaten her out, it had all been a solid work out for his arms which could now take a break.
Now that the two of them had sex, and had agreed to this strange new relationship, it would take time to get used to certain things. He trusted Briar to tell him if he had hurt her, so his mind wasn't really on that when he swam with her, instead it was this strange feeling he was going through in his mind. The question of what came next? did the two of them have or need to have a plan? Was he supposed to be content? what came after you had sex with a person this was his first time in a serious relationship, and it was likely the same for her. He swam with her, but was more trying to relax."Okay, is it just me or is it a lot more difficult to be naked out in the open then I thought it would be?"He said softly. The sounds of the night around them crickets chirping, and an owl hooting off in the distance. It all made him feel kind of exposed.
"I keep wanting to cover myself as I swim, or turn away, or keep looking around." He said looking up watching a bird, not an Owl or some kind of nocturnal bird but a Cuckoo rather land on the top of the cabin, and watch the two twins. Alexander tried to dismiss the feeling as just post sex paranoia. Turning his gaze to only focus on his sister for now."But I guess if I am expecting my pet to be comfortable I should try to show the same amount of bravery."He said with a soft chuckle and smile, but he honestly couldn't shake that feeling.

He'd followed her into the water, much like he'd followed her up the stairs. Briar didn't have a dominant bone in her body so the fact that he'd followed didn't make her feel powerful, but sexy. Laughing, she nodded. "I didn't know we'd get so hot,"she said softly into the night air. The idea behind the bath had been a good one, to help work the kinks from their bodies, but after what had transpired between them the idea of getting into a hot bath had been so unappealing to Briar that it had been dismissed almost immediately."But you were right, Master."The title gave her pleasure to say as he swam closer to her.
She was exhausted so even if his naked body close to hers made her arousal stir lazily, she pushed it to the side. While she wasn't really up for another round, the idea of kissing him again though? That was appealing. Floating in the water, Briar felt less concerned with her nudity than he did and she smiled some. "Want a kitten shield?"she purred playfully at his comment. She swam closer and pressed a kiss to his cheek, lips lingering."Even if someone saw us, I doubt they would question it much. They'd have to get close to see we are naked and even then we could just say we don't have bathing suits but wanted to swim."it might be a touch odd, but it was doubtful anyone would poke at it too much.
Sitting on a ledge within the water she pressed her back to the cool tiles."Come here, Master?"She pointed between her spread legs."I wanted to take a hot bath to help us relax our muscles.. After all the lifting you did though, you must be sore. Let me give you a massage?"Briar had always been thoughtful like this, it was nothing new. However, she'd never been quite so personal with how she'd tended to her brother before. There was a desire to care for him, to be sure, but Briar wanted to touch Alexander more. It didn't need to be sexual, but she found herself wanting to be closer to him, feeling more submissive and needy than she ever had in the past.

She was right of course no one would really question the two of them swimming around like this, the dark made it difficult to tell if they were wearing clothes, and she was right again that skinny dipping even with a sibling wasn't exactly weird when you had a pool and no clothes that could go into water. He sighed trying to relax, and then his kitten offered herself as both a shield and a Masseuse, He didn't shy away from the way she kissed him either making him more relaxed in the water, she wasn't wrong the day had left him kind of sore. He swam his way to the edge of the water and sat between her open legs. "By all means Kitten, massage away."He said relaxing a bit more.
"Honestly, I thought it would be easy to lift you around like that, but I don't think I could do that every day. It's more like a rare treat, because it's exhausting."He said honestly. He hoped his actions hadn't set the bar for their sex life so high that he could never live up to it after their first time, but it had been a lot of fun. He sighed for a moment feeling her hands on him as she rubbed his muscles. "The cool water helps a bit with the heat, and sweat, and even with my muscles being weightless for a moment, and of course I have my kitten's hands helping me through it all."He leaned back and placed a kiss on her cheek.
Even with the feeling of her naked body directly behind him, her breasts floating and touching his back, his arousal stayed purely emotional because his physical body was starting to want sleep, because it had been a long day."I actually feel like I got a work out in today."He said with a soft sigh for a moment, closing his eyes and feeling his body melt against hers for a long moment finally his body was able to relax.

Her fingers began to massage the knots from his shoulders, slowly working each one out before they moved to the next. Her movements were not practice, but the intent was clear. She just wanted to help him feel better. She chuckled softly from behind him and pressed her breasts to his back, her tongue licking the shell of his ear."I will take special occasions."In truth she had doubted it would be a daily thing and then she paused in her motions, blushing. Already so normal to her, she was picturing the events of the day as being daily.. Shaking her head, her eyes lowered to her 'task' at hand, leaning back so she could work.
A kiss was placed to her cheek and she purred gently. Hugging him to her as he leaned back into her. Her head laid on his shoulder and she closed her eyes as they both relaxed in the cool pool. It wasn't until her skin actually felt chilled that she gently kissed his neck with a lazy sigh."We should go to bed.. We have a full day ahead." Gently she pulled herself free, water running down her body in shimmering rivulets. She waited until he joined her before turning to head inside. A hand brushed Cerberus' head and Briar smiled at the dog before heading down the stairs to the bedroom. Her skin was slowly drying and she didn't mind falling into bed slightly wet.. Drying off would take too much effort.
Flopping onto the bed, she stretched along the sheets, looking at him through half lidded eyes."Will you hold me while we sleep, Master?"
gpt
"Yeah, a full day." The day had been long, but the two had agreed to many things around this camp. He felt the day's weight start to melt away with her attention on his body. He felt his muscles loosen and relax as he felt far safer in her arms. It was their second day at this place, and camp tomorrow would probably be just as traumatic tomorrow as it was today. Heck, tomorrow they would actually be going out of camp for a bit, just a trail hike to get some rocks, but still a long way out. He watched as she left the pool his eyes tracking her but softly for a moment as she walked. He slowly got out as well, honestly seeing her walk naked through their shared quarters, if it weren't for the fact that fatigue was catching up with him he would have turned around and probably demanded more from his kitten. instead, he collapsed not so softly onto the bed beside her, sprawling out for a moment.
"Mhmm." He gave a small reply as she asked him to hold her, and he turned slowly. His body was still damp, and a little cold from the night air, but it warmed quickly against her own as he pressed into her and wrapped his arm around her.
"Of course Kitten."He said softly as he closed his eyes and slept with her, damp, naked, and now entangled with his sister and pet. He slowly took deep breaths as he was drawn into a comfortable sleep.
When morning broke he was glad that their bedroom was underground, and that the cabin's glass windows faced away from the sun. He was the first to awaken, and slowly, gently untangled himself from her. While the dining pavilion would provide breakfast he still wanted to get up a little early and use the kitchen that Hades had supplied for them. Alexander kissed Briar's head softly again in the morning, and soon he would be in the kitchen wearing shorts, but nothing else only because the glass wall would not hide the incest while he was on the first floor. Soon the smell of morning eggs and coffee filled the air. While gods could provide for them at breakfast, he would rather provide for his Briar. Despite knowing that Hades supplied her with the groceries. He cooked an extra egg and put it into his dog bowl as an offering to his host. "Mom never let us have pets, and I'm a cat person... growl all you want, but Hercules wrestled you down when you were the size of a building, now you are a house pet."
The entire time he walked through the kitchen Cerberus watched him with a dark intensity that the dog wanted to rip him apart he was certain of it. Alexander just kept his distance as he brought the plate downstairs for his sister."Hey kitten, I got you a little something to tide you over till breakfast."

She had felt his eyes on her as she'd left the pool. As she'd entered the house and to say it made her feel sexy was an understatement. It was easy to remember how girls had looked at him back home and she'd seen the girls watching him even here. To know that he was hers? That was a power she'd savor. It wasn't over him, not truly, but it still made her feel powerful to know that while they watched him, he'd only have eyes for her. As the bed shifted beneath her, his weight joining her own. Chuckling softly she had poked him."Don't go breaking the bed, that would be hard to explain.."
Her request was answered as he pulled her into his arms. Both of them were still wet from the pool, but it wasn't unpleasant as they warmed one another. She let out a soft, throaty purr. A happy sound as she closed her eyes. That pleasing power was also felt when she called him Master, when he called her kitten. In his arms, she found sleep easily. Her dreams, if they existed, were gone before she woke. Safe in his embrace, she slept soundly. Even when he rose from the bed in the morning, she continued to sleep, the only sign that she knew he'd left her was a soft whimper before she rolled into the space he'd vacated, his warmth and scent enveloping her, pulling her back under.
Cerberus gave him a low growl in greeting as he came upstairs, though he didn't bother to get off the plush couch. He watched Alexander as he moved about the kitchen, lazily flicking his tail side to side. While Alexander would never be his favorite, he could tell that the care he had for his mistress was genuine. Rising he padded into the kitchen as he tilted the egg into his bowl. Another soft growl, though he made no move to attack Alexander. He smelled like Zeus and he hated him for it. He might have been a house pet, but he wasn't some dumb animal. Watching him head downstairs, Cerberus huffed before starting to eat.
It was her brother's voice that woke her and she gave a small groan before opening her eyes. Rubbing at them, she pushed herself to sit, a smile on her lips as he handed her the plate."It smells good,"she shifted, careful of her plate to kiss him. Unlike him, Briar was still naked. Sitting cross-legged she began to eat her eggs, wiggling in place."Mmmmn, so good."she held a forkful of eggs to him, a smile on her face."Thank you, Master."

Returning to the bedroom he got to see his sister in all of the morning glory, messy hair check, still undressed, double check, the smile and a kiss from her were really just dressings that made his morning feel all the more special. And this would only be their first morning together, each and every morning after would be just like this one, he took a deep breath and savored the moment as she made an offering to him. He smiled and took the bite she offered. He chuckled a little when she called him master, everything from yesterday still felt like a dream, and yet the smile and the way she looked at him all but confirmed it was real.
He moved to sit next to her. "It's a shame we can't stay down here all day." He said softly, his hand brushing her back gently. The two of them would be needed to properly start breakfast at the Messhall, plus they had their own mission to carry out, which meant that they had to get ready and go through another day of training to get their teachers to sign off on it. But, one glance at the clock told him they had time, this place was cloaked in the veil of summer, the sun rose early, and it was only 6am. In the real world where seasons existed, it would be pitch black for another three hours.
"We have a bit of time though before we have to join the others." he glanced at the box her father had left them. He glanced at the tail and ears. He wasn't hiding where his eyes would wander. He was a bit like a kid on Christmas morning, wanting to unwrap a present. "Do you think you could put it in?" He asked out loud, he had no idea how such a thing would fit, or how it would feel for her, it looked rather big. Then of course he returned to the fact that she was eating, having just woken, and he was thinking about a butt plug. "After you are done eating, of course, Kitten."
His face flushed red in a soft warm blush for a moment.
