Chapter 25: Heat

AN: Warning for this chapter: slight sexual activity between men and women. If you don't want to read about it, you shouldn't read this chapter!

Sirius looked at them with a satisfied grin until he felt his lovers' hands on his chest. "Are you looking for something?"

"Do you also have and 'inscription'?" Remus asked him.

Looking down Sirius saw the moving words and nodded, "Yep, what do they say, Moony?"

Remus watched the moving picture and words before answering, "They speak of 'Purus' and 'Fortitudo'. Meaning purity and strength or courage. But Siri, did Sev give you the potion?"

Shaking his head Siri answered, "No, that is still weeks away. Why, Moony? You would have been the first to know..."

Severus looked at Remus in askance before focussing his sharp gaze on Sirius. Gasping he rushed forward and manhandled Sirius, "I think Remus asked because every single scar is gone, and you aren't looking emaciated any more." Slowly and gently Severus let his hands glide over the unblemished skin, taking in the unhurt and healthy tone that quickly turned pink under his touch and expert eye.

"Sev!" Sirius gasped when the potions master's fingers brushed his right nipple. The gasp brought Severus back to his senses, or it could be the growl sounding from Remus as the werewolf watched his mates touch and caress the flawless skin he longed to explore for himself.

Backing away as if burnt Severus took deep steadying breathes to reign in his desire for his mates. It had felt so good to touch Sirius without the reminder of the hurt the man had went through. To feel him react in desire to such a simple touch made Severus own desire rise and pulse between his legs. Knowing that Remus would be able to scent his arousal Severus squeezed his eyes shut, only to snap them back open when his hand was caught in a tight hold.

Remus couldn't stand it any longer and rushed over to Severus. The pheromones his mates were emitting were so strong that his werewolf felt the mating call and woke fully. Grabbing his one mate's hand he pulled until they were pressing Sirius against the wall and, leading Severus hand, he put their hands on Sirius chest. Playing with the skin, muscles and pectorals as well as plucking at the erect nipples. Kissing Sirius Remus moaned in longing when he felt Sirius reach his climax just from their touch on his chest.

But neither Severus nor Remus would have thought that they would be swept away by Sirius' release as well. When Sirius tore his mouth from Remus and swept his head back, presenting his mates with his flawless neck, Remus felt himself trembling in sexual release without even having been touched as he gently gnawed at Siri's neck. Severus pressed his hips forward just as he bit Sirius' neck on the other side in lust and spent himself in his trousers.

Spent the three tumbled to the ground unmindful of the stares they received from those present.

"Damn it, hotness all around!" Faith exclaimed while fanning herself for real. The show tension had nearly been enough to make her eat Cordy alive. Standing behind her lover she had discreetly grabbed the brunets butt and massaged it in longing. But she knew that anything further would have resulted in Cordy leaving her stranded in a huff.

Tara was blushing so hard she thought there couldn't be any blood left to pulse within her, but the flame of arousal had caught her as well. Looking over she saw Oz grabbing the armchair in desperation, consequently not looking at her in fear of losing control.

Wesley was busily trying to be silent as Gunn massaged his butt, playing along the seams of the jeans and nuzzling his neck. Wanting to have his lover now, Gunn had finally enough and took his lover's hand, pulling him from the room and into the next dark alcove, where he proceeded to make his lover tremble in lust and finally release.

Giles cleaned his glasses for the hundredth times keeping a watchful eye on Ethan, who was watching the proceeding with an admiring eye, while looking at Ripper from time to time.

Harry blushed at seeing his godfather in such a position, but he could admit that the three men together made him rather hot, and Lucius too, judging by the hand stroking his thigh higher and higher.

Xander moaned when he saw Sirius being worshipped by his mates, longing to be in that position with his own mates as well. A hand on his hips, trying to calm him down but further igniting his passion held him fast as he grabbed the hand stroking his stomach and guided it down to his pulsing arousal. One short touch was enough, the tension in the room, Sirius release over their bond too palpable to ignore. Xander moaned but quickly found his mouth occupied by Spike's busy tongue while Angel's hand massaged his cock until he was fully spent.

"Hot, pet. You coming just from watching him come... Our hands on you!" Spike panted, trying but not succeeding in staying in his human disguise. He kissed Xander again and was surprised at the taste of blood. When he started pulling back Xander grabbed his head and forcefully kissed back, feeding Spike his blood.

When Xander finally released the kiss he found himself caught in another one as Angel took his fill, not only of the blood, but Xander's mouth as well.

Clearing his throat while blushing himself Dumbledore's voice interrupted further proceedings, "If you are all finished now, could we please continue?"

Sirius and Xander blushed fiercely and if not for their mates would have fled the room. Quietly mumbling a cleaning spell Severus had them looking as prior to their public make out session. Severus included the other in the room as well, thinking it better to take care of that first before continuing their business.

Harry was still blushing when he stood up and stripped off his shirt, "Can you please look the other way, Luc? Otherwise the whole orgy will start again."

Lucius smirked at his lover and settled more firmly in his seat. "No, I cannot look away, Harry."

Blushing further Harry grumbled but turned around and looked at his own chest. The tattoo was moving like it did with the others, forming the phoenix they knew was his guardian, but also the words 'Fides' and 'Innocentia'.

Lucius looked at the words, "Faith and Innocence... I thought I had taken care of the innocence, Harry. Seems as if I have to do it again and again!" Lucius laughed outright at the Harry's outcry of "Lucius!"

"What about you, Xanpet? What are your words?" Spike asked honestly curious. The words seemed to symbol their bearer's innermost strength.

Xander quickly stripped of his shirt and let his lovers turn him around until the words were found floating on his shoulder blades.

Angel traced the inscription, "'Fortitudo' and 'Fides'. Strength and faith... Is it just me or are there always two of you bearing the same word?" Angel asked.

Dumbledore looked on thoughtful, "You are right, Angel. Sirius shares 'purity' with Seamus and 'strength' with Xander. Xander shares his second 'faith' with Harry, while Harry share 'innocence' with Seamus..."

Suddenly Tara jumped up, "Didn't you say that you received gems from your guardians after you proved yourself?" When the four nodded she asked, "And where are they?"

Shocked and slightly panicked they started searching through their clothes.

"Now stop panicking! Sirius please set your left hand on Xander's 'strength' and your right on Seamus' 'purity. Now Xander, you touch Sirius 'strength' and Harry's 'faith'. Harry, you touch Seamus' 'innocence' and Xander's 'faith'. Seamus, please touch Harry's 'innocence' and Sirius' 'purity."

While there was a bit of a melee they finally managed to follow Tara's instruction.

Just as they connected the last words a bright light shone from each of them.

Sirius' chest, right over his heart was glowing a bright white light and the diamond sparkled where it was connected with his chest.

Xander's left hand shone a bright green as the emerald crystal shone with the vastness of a forest in the sunlight.

Harry's right hand glowed a bright red, flaring and flickering like the flames of an untamed fire.

Seamus forehead ignited and shone with a pale blue that slowly deepened to a clear blue, just like the ocean at the deepest depth.

Smirking at the looks of disbelieve on the men's faces Cordy smirked, "Well, you four won't ever have to worry about finding your jewellery again!"
