Octavia

Explain everything. I whisper to shadows in exhaustion.

We could show you...

I pause. Thinking through if I can be bothered as I flop back on my bed having left Sky and Riven in my kitchen. Riven is apparently stress cooking something for us to reheat tomorrow. I say stress, I'm pretty sure he's livid that he didn't get to join Sky on his little crusade.

Tell me what we need to do first.

Lykos was at the sparring ground, observing training and decided to take some of the better specialists out of the cordoned off area and into the festival. He had them doing public spars.

Because adding not just public pressure but their parents' pressure as well was going to end well.

Long story short, a fair amount of specialists got injured with the first blood rule he implemented. Well, Andreas implemented. You know how he feels about Saul babying the specialists.

And then Sky came over for a distraction from the little tiff his dad and father-figure were having and well-

Let me guess, I rub at my forehead in annoyance. Lykos said a mocking offhand comment and Sky snapped, making Sky look like the overreacting bad guy. Except it was intentional because Lykos wants an excuse to demand a trial by battle against Sky.

The Shadow's silence is answer enough and I sigh. Quickly making my way back into the kitchen I give my Sky a soft glare while kissing Riv on the cheek and poking at whatever he's making.

"I'm going to get a shower." I murmur to him.

"Can I join?" Riv whispers but I see the look in Sky's eyes, the frustration and rage at Lykos and his own actions. I softly shake my head, gesturing silently to the male next to us. Riven rolls his eyes when he gets my message to keep Sky from building himself into an even bigger rage.

Especially now that he's had time to replay the event over and over in his head.

I smile at Riven in thanks and make my way back into my room and to the bathroom. Once I'm in the bathroom I decide on a bath instead. I've had to deal with far too many dick measuring males today and I deserve the opportunity to relax.

Once I'm soaking in the tub I take in the silence and realise I'm not going to be able to relax until I know what Lykos said to Sky, my controlled, fairly calm Sky, to make him snap.

And now Lykos is no doubt out for blood, although if my conversation with Stella is anything to go by he was out for blood from the start.

Unless I accept the trial on Sky's behalf.

But if I'm doing that then I want to know why.

Show me then...

Riven

I watch Sky silently as the tension in him builds.

"I know... we don't always talk about things." I slowly begin, moving to sit opposite him on the coffee table in front of the sofa. "But I am here for you."

I'm going to ignore the small bubble of hurt that he didn't come to me first. I can imagine how panicked and overwhelmed he was.

"I think I'm just processing it now to be honest." Sky's voice is hoarse and I wince at the sound. "I was running on pure instinct when Lykos found me. Well, when I ran into him at the sparring pits."

"You were looking for a fight." I comment absently, knowing Sky's need to forget about his problems by punching them out.

I wait, letting Sky collect himself.

"He called Silva my father. Andreas, I mean" Sky states with a frown. "And it hurts, yet it makes me proud and happy to have someone consider me Silva's son and not Andreas. My whole life, everyone has referred to me as Andreas' son and all I ever wanted was to be Sky Silva. Just another boy in the crowd, not the son of a famous war hero whose name I would have to live up to."

He drops his head into his hands, running his fingers through his hair as he takes a shaky breath.

"And the way they would treat Silva. As though he wasn't good enough to be a father, as though he shouldn't have taken me in. When they would say how lucky I was for him to care for me." Sky's hands tremble slightly and I reach forward to clasp them. "I hated it, that feeling like I was just charity to Silva. I wanted him to want me. I wanted him to say he was going to be my father now."

"And the first time someone says 'Silva is your father' it's from my fucking dad." He lets out a disbelieving laugh and just breaks down in my arms.

I don't know how long I hold him. Just letting him get out the broken sobs until they silence and Sky is left trembling in my arms. I just hold him, whispering nonsensical words of comfort as I bring him into a hug.

He takes a moment and then pulls away from me, clearing his throat as he straightens up. Sky stares at me, some unknown emotion in his eyes.

"And this stuff with Farrah." He whispers, "It has to stop. Irene can't take it and Silva."

Sky shakes his head.

"It's because of me that Silva won't push Dowling away. She was the only mother figure I had for years, she and Silva weren't close romantically - he was waiting for Irene to return to him." Sky bites his lower lip in thought and my heart races. "They got closer because of me. I overheard them once, Irene and Saul, it was the only time I had ever heard them at odds. They never shouted, never raised their voices, all they did was whisper harshly at each other and somehow that was worse."

"Irene wanted Farrah out of my life, even I had to agree. Irene had been stable mentally for years but Farrah still came round to the house almost everyday, dropping off food, books, gifts, anything to keep an eye on Irene. It was driving her straight back to insanity if I'm being honest."

"Silva agreed but- but he said that Farrah was the only mother figure I had had for the past 10 years and I needed stability. It broke Irene's heart. Except Dowling didn't come the next day, or the next and her visits lessened and we spent the whole week up in Silva's cottage with him doting on Irene in apology."

"So what changed." I ask, because that sounds like a pretty good solution.

"I joined Alfea, Silva took over as Headmaster full time and Irene took a teacher role. They were all brought together again." He mumbles and I reach forward to tilt his chin up, to make him look at me as I give him a soft smile.

"It's not your fault."

"I know." Sky sighs. "Doesn't stop the guilt."

I give him a soft smile, scanning his face as I lean in till our foreheads rest together. There's something different in Sky's eyes now, a brightness in the blue that wasn't there before and I swear I could drown in the emotions consuming him. I trace the planes of his face, following the sharp edge of his jaw, his cheekbones. Mapping each freckle and ridge like I can escape from where we are now, to find somewhere different and safe in his arms.

Warmth at the back of my neck has me registering Sky tugging at the nape of my neck. Tugging me back till he can scan my face, taking in the desire in my eyes. I lean forward, slowly getting closer as my gaze flicks between Sky's eyes and his lips. Waiting for him to pull away, to change his mind.

I gasp in shock when Sky presses forward, capturing my mouth in a searing kiss. It's over in seconds and I can't help but move after him when he pulls back with a sultry laugh. Sky leans forward to press his lips to mine, kissing the corner of my mouth, my jaw, tilting my head back to nip at the place on my neck that has me gasping and whimpering in seconds.

I clamp my mouth closed in shock, bringing a hand up to cover my mouth in embarrassment at how quickly I lost control. Fearfully glancing at the door to Tavi's bedroom as Sky continues to press kisses down the side of my neck.

"Sky." I whisper and he mumbles against my throat, the sound reverberating along my skin. "What about Tavi?"

"Tavi will be fine with us." Sky mumbles, pressing a kiss to my lips before pulling back and cradling my face, thumbs stroking across my cheeks as he wipes away tears that hadn't realised had fallen. "What's wrong, my love."

"I-" I don't know what to say, I know exactly what to say but there's so much of it. "You know I don't- not serious- and after calum-"

"I am not him." Sky snarls, before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. "Sorry, I just... after you told me."

"You think I don't know it was you who beat him black and blue?" I grin when his eyes snap open in surprise, a flicker of guilt at being caught and he opens his mouth to no doubt apologise but I cut him off with a messy kiss, laughing through it. Sky reluctantly smiles but chuckles a little.

"You can't blame me, you're my best friend. I was defending your honour." Sky shoots me a grin and a sultry look. "Unless you want me to take said hon-"

"Oh fuck off, Sky!" We burst into laughter, sharing a look as we quietened down. Something calmer and more honest passed between us.

"Tavi would never judge us, she wouldn't be against this either." Sky murmurs, giving me a reassuring look.

"How can you know that?" I whisper, old fears resurfacing. "How can you know she will be okay with it?"

"Because I know our mate, the same way you do." Sky murmurs, eyes flickering across my face. "And you know that these fears aren't born of Tavi's actions."

I swallow heavily.

"Don't let them control you, Riven. Your father, Calum-"

"You?" I whisper and Sky's eyes brim with tears that he hastily swallows.

"Me." He whispers. "I was a dick, and I grew up. But that doesn't change what I did and said. Please don't let my mistakes hold you back."

"No, Sky. It wasn't you. I just- are you sure about this- us. After Davos." Sky tenses, eyes flickering with sadness at my words. Silence holds me for a moment.

"I'm sure." Sky whispers after some time. "I have been for a while, just wasn't ready to fully admit it."

I nod shakily and smile. A real smile as elation fills me. With a foreign giddiness I lean forward and kiss Sky. It's by no means an elegant kiss, it's sloppy and messy, fuelled by our desperation. Helios, how long have we been waiting to do this? How long have we been holding back?

Sky claws at my shirt, tugging me closer as I gasp for breath. Sky pulls back and whimper, glaring slightly when he huffs out a soft laugh before leaning back in and crashing their lips together. I can't help but whimper softly, unable to hold back the noise. "One day, Riven." Sky whispers before pushing his lips against mine again until a noise of need breaks free from me. "We are going to have that life, all three of us." He tugs at my bottom lip gently with his thumb. "The one you crave so badly." He mumbles against my lips before his tongue darts careful into my mouth and I gasp, heat thrumming through me when the tip of his tongue brushes against mine. Again. And again. Inviting me to do the same. "The wrap-around porch, the picket fence. We will have that life, I promise you." Sky whispers to me and somehow it's the most attractive thing anyone has ever said to me.

I drag my hands down the side of his body, reaching up again to tangle them into Sky's hair as he grabs my waist. I let out a noise of surprise as Sky drags me forward, turning us till he can straddle me on the sofa. "You really are a sensitive thing." Sky murmurs, pushing against me harder until a sink into the cushions behind me. "I've barely touched you and you're already rock hard."

"You are touching me." I exclaim indignantly the urge to groan as Sky grinds down against me.

"If you think this is me touching you then I've got something to tell you." Sky's smile is something of dark and devilish beauty.

"Oh hush." I snap as I mouth the words against the side of Sky's throat. "It's not like this is my first time."

"How many times have you had sex with a boy?" Sky asks curiously as his hand trails slowly down my chest to brush over my hard on and I gasp in delight when he rubs against me. I pull back slightly, lips hovering over Sky's collar bone as I try to think of an answer. There was Nick, Dean, that one guy from the party and of course Callum but I don't like to count him. Although I don't really remember having sex with any of them, I was smashed drunk so I'm not entirely sure what we did. A startled moan leaves my lips when Sky grips me through my trousers. "I asked a question, Riven. I would like an answer."

"Why does it matter?" I gasp out defensively, eyes fluttering shut as he strokes up and down my length.

"Because I want to know how rough I can be, I want to know what you like, how you like it." Sky drawls, voice low as he nuzzles into the side of my neck to murmur against the shell of my ear. "No wonder you're so frazzled all the time Riv, you've been depriving yourself if the sounds of your moans are anything to go by."

I should not have found that attractive.

Sky bites down on the lower part of my neck and I jerk forward into his hand.

"Fuck-" I curse at the sharp sting, but there is something thrilling at the pain.

"What do you want Riven?" Sky asks between bites and kisses. I get the impression that if Sky had his way he would break me down into a shaking and moaning mess - but only if I was okay with that. He would never push me to do anything I don't want to and there's something comforting in that thought. I trust him.

"I- " I bite down on my lip, trying to muffle another moan as Sky squeezes my erection, embarrassment thrumming through me now that Sky's point out wound up and sensitive I am. "I need to cum, Sky, please."

Sky laughs mirthlessly, "You're so polite now Riv, no mouthing off here. How can I say no?"

Sky starts to undo my belt and reality starts to kick in.

"W-wait, stop." Sky looks up to me curiously, meeting my gaze. "I'm not sure I'm ready.. For you to, uh- and with Pixie in the other room."

"Hey, don't feel bad if you're not ready for something."

"No, I do- I do want to- " I break off with a frustrated sigh. "I don't want to have sex with you."

"Yet." I quickly add, "But I know you were waiting to be with Tavi until we were sorted and I'm fine with that I just... don't want to rush into things between us."

"Of course, whatever your ready for." Sky murmurs as he lazily kisses down my throat, "I can think of some other things we could do together."

"I think this is good for now." I shakily say as Sky readjusts himself in my lap, putting his legs on either side of me, grinding into my groin. "Oh fuck-"

Helios I didn't know such a small move could bring so much pleasure.

I lean forward, resting my head against Sky's shoulder, soft noises pouring from my mouth at each roll of his body grinding against mine. I grin as curses steadily fall from Sky's lips as he clutches at my arms, moving faster and faster.

A horrifically pornographic moan is ripped from Sky's throat when I reach up and tug at his hair, dragging him down into a bruising kiss. "Fuck that was hot." I gasp against his mouth. "Make that noise again."

Sky laughs but indulgently grinds down in a drawn out move, moans echoing from both of us and I can feel my stomach tighten as I'm pushed closer and closer to my orgasm. Sky bites at the bottom of my lips and my eyes flutter shut as I moan at the pressure building. Sky pulls back with a moan of his own and pushes more of his weight down onto me.

I gasp into Sky's mouth as the move suddenly has my senses overwhelmed. Sky's dragging his hands up and down my chest, brushing over my nipples, scratching at my abs while kissing and sucking just behind my ear. And it feels so fucking good that I'm starting to think thats a new sweet spot. Moans are steadily falling from Sky's lips, mixing with my cries as I completely abandon any thoughts of being quiet as Sky grinds into me so mercilessly that I know I won't last much longer.

"That's it." Sky gasps out as he cups my face, breathing heavily as he pulls away from me and then tilts my head up so he can kiss and suck at the base of my neck. Helios he must have left so many hickies. The noise spilling from me get louder and louder now Sky's mouth is no longer covering mine and I can't practically feel his smug delight at the sounds. "Keep moaning for me, Riven. You sound so pretty."

Never been called pretty before. It's an absolute turn on apparently.

"It's too much." I squeeze my eyes shut, I can't think straight. Can't think past Sky pressing down on me, the friction and heat between our body and the instinct to claim him as mine despite all my previous rational thoughts. "I'm gonna - I think I'm gonna cum."

Helios, I need to calm down.

"Go ahead," Sky whispers against the shell of my ear and my eyes slam open in surprise at his words. "Tonight is just starting if the noises Tavi is making are any indication."

"What-"

"C'mon Riven, I know your moans are loud but surely you can hear hers over ours?" Sky chuckles against my lips as I struggle to think, to understand- "I think she's enjoying this as much as I am."

I gasp as images of Tavi flicker through my mind, the thought of her enjoying this as well. Sky reaches his hand down between us, rubbing at the tip of my erection still covered by my trousers, continuing his rough grinds and humping. That did it, as soon as Sky touched me, my hips lifted and I try to bury my face in Sky's chest.

"No- No." Sky begs and a hand forces my head to stay pointing up as I cum, desperately crying out Sky and Tavi's name as I hear her moans echo from the bathroom. "Look at me, Helios, Riven, look at me please. I need to see you."

Sky is still rolling his hips into me and I quiver at the attention, easily overstimulated now that I've cum. "Plese, please." Sky sounds so desperate, maybe even more than I had been.

I slowly open my eyes, just enough to see the male panting above me. Sky looks down at me and groans, I can see his pupils large and dilated. I feel myself shaking, overcome with too many sensations on top of the emotional side of tonight as Sky refuses to stop his movements.

"Sky please." I beg, unwilling to stop him until he'd cum as well but I can't take much more. If Sky doesn't cum soon I'm seriously going to have to ask him to stop and it's bad enough that I've already cum in pants like some greenie first year, I don't need to be tapping out from the one thing I have been anticipating for months.

Even if I am perking up thanks to that Dumaris blood, I completely plan on saving that energy for round two with our mate.

"Riven." Sky gasps out, body shaking as his head drops down onto my shoulder. He slows down and I take over, delighting in Sky's moans as I work him through his orgasm. "Helios above."

I laugh at Sky's curse, stroking a hand through his hair as he comes down from his high, settling against me as his breathing steadies.

"That was so hot."

Octavia. Fuck.

A/N: Are you all happy now?!?!?!?! I gave you the Riven/Sky stuff, and yes there is more to come with the three of them.
