Daughter of oblivion: Claimed by four alpha(s)-Chapter 103 - 102: Eryx is being judged.
Chapter 103: Chapter 102: Eryx is being judged.
A whimper slipped out of her as she reached for her shoulder, fingertips brushing the thin strap of her dress. She tugged it down, letting it slide down, leaving her boobs on display in front of him. The cool air touched her for only a second before she shivered again, voice cracking in frustration. Her entire body felt too hot... too tight... too desperate.
Eryx’s breathe caught as his gaze landed on full curved perfect boobs in front of him. And his body reacted instantly. His cock twitched badly in his pant and he hissed in pain. A low, instinctive sound left him before he could stop it, his jaw clenching as he fought every natural impulse screaming inside him.
" Athena... " he said, voice rough but it also came out almost as a plead.
She didn’t listen to him, instead she rubbed her boobs on his chest as she moved her hips against him again, seeking relief she didn’t understand, relief she couldn’t possibly get this way.
His hand shot to her waist, holding her still, firm but not hurting.
He groaned through his teeth, head dropping for a moment as he fought for control. His hand itch so badly, to grab her boobs and fold the fuck out of it until her pink nipple hardened.
"Fuck..." It was barely a whisper. "Athena..."
She only trembled harder, leaning into him, her fingers fumbling for the buttons of his shirt. She wasn’t trying to be seductive, she was just lost and overwhelmed. Tears burned her eyes as she pressed her breast closer, struggling to breathe through the crushing heat.
"Eryx..." she whispered, voice breaking, "please... it hurts... I’m in so much pain..."
Her tears nearly destroyed him.
Eryx stilled. Something cold and sharp cut through the fire inside. Guilt. He brought his hand to her cheek, wiping the tears gently, forcing himself to ignore the way her hips unconsciously pressed into him, the way her body shook against his. And the way her nipple continued to tease him.
He studied her carefully. Her flushed skin.
Her unfocused eyes. The way she couldn’t hold her balance.
The drug... hells, it was hitting her harder than expected.
He wants to give her what she wants but he couldn’t, she wasn’t in her mind.
And she would hate him, hate herself, if he took advantage of this moment, even though she was the one reaching for him.
He swallowed hard, forcing air into his lungs.
"Athena," he whispered, brushing the damp strands of hair from her face, "I know it hurts. I know you feel like you’re burning. But I can’t... I won’t do this with you like this."
She whimpered, shaking her head, fingers still clutching at his shirt weakly.
He caught her hands gently but firmly, lowering them from his buttons even as she leaned into his chest, seeking any comfort she could find.
"I need to get the doctor," he said, thumb brushing her cheek again. "This isn’t something I can fix. If I touch you Athena...no if I fuck you...you’re going to like it and going to hate it," he couldn’t help but smile. "You’re going to like it because, I’ll fuck you to the point of insanity and you’ll end up wanting more and you’re going to hate it, because you’ll feel guilty about Oliver."
Her breath hitched, and she buried her face in his neck, trembling violently, whispering his name like a broken prayer.
Eryx shut his eyes, fighting everything inside him, his instincts, the attraction, the raw ache in his body.
He would burn before he let her regret him.
He slipped an arm around her to keep her steady, the other cupping the back of her head gently.
"I’m here," he murmured, voice low but steady. "I’m not leaving you. But I’m not taking advantage of you either. You’re not thinking clearly, Athena... the drug is pulling you apart from the inside. Your body’s begging for relief because it’s overwhelmed, not because you truly want this."
She sobbed softly, gripping him harder.
" I’ll go get the doctor now okay," he whispered into her hair. "Even if you hate me for it right now."
He shift her and make her look at him. Her face was swollen and red. Her lips pulling into a pout. If she wasn’t suffering right now...he would have teased her for being cute.
He let his eyes trailed down her body stopping directly on her boobs and he swallowed hard. He ignored every single unholy thought and slides her hand in the straps of her dress.
After making sure she was fine, Eryx left the room, he didn’t walk...he bolted, storming down the hallway like every second was oxygen slipping through his fingers.
Back in the ballroom, Felicia was still dancing, tipsy but still she kept glancing around to see if Athena, but nothing.
What’s taking Athena so long?
She scanned the room, then looked toward the exit Athena had disappeared through. She frowned.
Before she could even step forward, a hand clamped around her wrist, firm, urgent.
Felicia jerked, startled. Heads snapped in their direction immediately. Even Levi and Leo stilled mid-dance, watching with raised brows.
"Eryx... what?"
"It’s Athena," he said, low, only for her. The look in his eyes punched the breath from her chest. "Someone drugged her. I need you with her now."
The words hit Felicia like ice water.
Levi and Leo didn’t hear what he said because of the loud music, but they saw the shift...the sudden tension that crackled in the room like electricity. Azrael, Theodore, and Rhydric sensed it too; their eyes followed Eryx and Felicia with growing suspicion.
Felicia’s eyes widened. No hesitating, no questions. "Take me."
He dragged her out quickly.
The moment Felicia stepped into the room and saw Athena flushed, trembling, breath uneven, body shifting restlessly across the sheets, her heart dropped.
"Oh my God... Athena"
"Stay with her," Eryx snapped, frustration grinding through his voice. "Don’t let anyone in."
And then he was gone again, practically sprinting.
He wasn’t moving like a supernatural being but like a man whose fear was keeping pace with him, shoving him faster.
He didn’t make it far.
When he burst back into the main party, he ran straight into Rhydric, Theo, Azrael, Levi, and Leo all staring at him as if he’d dragged a storm behind him.
Rhydric’s brows crashed together.
"What happened?"
Theo stepped forward sharply.
"Where’s Athena?"
Eryx didn’t answer.
Azrael’s eyes narrowed, voice dropping into something cold, dangerous.
"Where. Is. She."
Eryx growled back, "Someone drugged her."
That was enough. The party music kept thumping, but the tension around them thickened until even nearby students started glancing over.
Azrael’s jaw flexed, his teeth baring just slightly. "And you slept with her," he snarled, grabbing Eryx by the collar.
Eryx shoved him off immediately.
"Don’t be a fool."
Azrael stepped closer, fury rolling off him.
"I can smell her release on you. So you better start talking."
Theo groaned, dragging a hand over his face."God, here we go..."
Eryx scoffed, bitter and sharp.
"Not my fault if Athena wants me and not you."
He said it directly into Azrael’s face.
Azrael’s control snapped, he swung and punched Eryx clean across the jaw.
Thanks to the pounding music, the growl rumbling from him barely registered to anyone else.
