Chapter 140 part 3
**Cassius**
The exchanges continue, each one more intense than the last. Clint steps forward, his hands moving to Avery’s waist as he speaks. “You are my everything, Avery,” he says, his voice low and passionate. “Submit to me, and I will cherish you. Trust me, and I will protect you. Love me, and I will give you everything.”
Avery’s heart races as she nods, her voice steady. “I submit, Clint. I trust you. I love you.”
Clint’s hands move to her hips, his touch sending shivers down her spine. “Show it,” he commands, his voice laced with desire. She leans forward, pressing her lips to his, her hands gripping his jacket as she surrenders to him. The kiss is fierce, hungry, their tongues tangling as they devour each other. Clint’s hands move to her waist, pulling her closer, his body pressing against hers as he deepens the kiss. She surrenders to him completely, her body arching into his as she moans into his mouth.
Conner steps forward, his hands moving to Avery’s shoulders as he speaks. “You are my strength, Avery,” he says, his voice low and steady. “Submit to me, and I will support you. Trust me, and I will protect you. Love me, and I will give you everything.”
Avery’s heart swells as she nods, her voice steady. “I submit, Conner. I trust you. I love you.”
Conner’s hands move to her waist, his touch sending sparks of desire through her body. He grins as a blush coats his cheeks. “Prove it,” he commands, his voice laced with hunger. She leans into him, and he worships her. His touch is firm but gentle, his mouth leaving a trail of kisses along her skin as he teases and pleases her. Avery moans, her body arching into his touch as she surrenders to him. She trusts him completely, her body responding to his every touch as she loses herself in the pleasure. I smile because my shy brother is finally coming out of his shell. I also see how much Avery and he are alike. I see how we all fit now. I see everything. Avery so effortlessly molds herself to fit each of us and brings out the best in us, too. I am thankful to James for using this ritual to show us that. Avery loves all of us and would never choose, and now we have no reason to ever ask her to.
As the final exchange comes to an end, James steps forward, his hands moving to Avery’s shoulders as he speaks. “You’ve done well, my queen,” he says, his voice low and proud. “You’ve surrendered to us, trusted us, loved us. Now, it’s time for the final test.”
Avery’s heart races as she looks up at him, her voice steady. “What is it?”
James’s eyes lock on hers, his expression intense. “We’ll face the Ancient One together. We’ll barter for the time we need to hunt down and kill Cora. But first, we must be one. We must be indivisible.”
Avery nods, her voice firm. “We are one, James. We are indivisible.”
James smiles, his hands moving to her waist as he pulls her close. “Then let’s show the Ancient One what we’re capable of,” he says, his voice low and dangerous.
Our group steps forward, our hands joining together as we form a circle around Avery. The air in the room grows heavier, charged with our combined energy as we prepare for the final test.
James raises his hands, and the candles on the pedestals flare to life, their flames dancing in unison. “We are one,” he declares, his voice resonating through the chamber. “We are indivisible. And together, we will face whatever comes next.” The ritual ends, but the bond remains, a tangible force that binds us together. Avery feels it in her heart, in her soul, as she looks at us. She knows that we’re ready. She knows that we’re strong. Now, thanks to James, she knows that we are all united. We will get Cora and a short break from the Ancient One, but there is that thought that lingers in the back of my mind and Avery’s: What will he ask of us in return?
