Chapter 6 Home And Desires

Raistlin cried out, doing his best to muffle the sound by turning his head and biting the pillow beneath it, mindful of Taz sleeping in the small guest room nearby. His slender hands tightened in Caramon's golden hair, clutching his brother closer where his large head was buried between the Mage's thighs firmly.

The warrior lifted his head in response to the tightening of those beloved fingers, noticing the other man's face buried in the pillow. "Raistlin.. Do not hold back your sounds, please, brother. I love to hear them, because I love you.."

He waited for his twin's shaky nod in reply, then lowered his head back down again, resuming his previous task of licking the small, tight and puckered opening to his lover's body. He was pleased when Raistlin's hips jerked in response and his thighs quivered on either side of Caramon's face, a shudder traveling through his whole body as he moaned loudly, throwing his head back quickly as his fingers tightened further in the strands of Caramon's hair.

"Care, I am going to-"

Caramon smiled inwardly at his younger brother's cry, slipping two oil-slick fingers inside his damp opening just as the Mage's body seized and spasmed as he lost his usual restraint. Raistlin was helpless in the wake of such exquisite sensations flooding his consciousness all at once, a quiet, broken sound escaping Raistlin as he came down from the high metaphorical tower that his release always sent him to. He was shaking as his brother added a third finger before pausing to inquire about the response that had sounded suspiciously like a sob.

"Are you alright, Raist?"

"My.. heart. It hurts, Care. I love you so much that it hurts.. Do not stop, my brother.." "If you are sure?.." "I am. ..Please.."

"Alright," Caramon agreed, grabbing his brother's legs by the ankles suddenly as he rose up now, hooking them over his broad shoulders so that they were spread open wide for him. "I love you, Raist."

Then he was pushing home, sweat beading on his upper lip and forehead as the Mage stiffened and cried out once more, seeming to relish the painful stretching and burning that let him feel that they were one once more. His hands clutched at the air briefly, grasping his larger brother closer as a strangled groan escaped his throat when Caramon began to move. The twins soon came together, Raistlin for the second time.

Caramon stiffened with a loud groan, feeling his brother's fingers tighten in the hair at the nape of his neck as he spilled his burning hot seed inside his shaking, sweat-damp body. Raistlin released against the warm skin of Caramon's left hip, their breathing harsh with exertion and loud in the darkness as they clung to each other intimately. Eventually they drifted off to sleep in their new bed with Raistlin now lying atop Caramon's large body, wrapped in his protective embrace.

Tanis relaxed at the softly spoken words, nodding, a shiver running through his body when Gilthanas reached out with his left hand to draw him closer by the chin and place his lips against his in a gentle kiss. His male cousin's other hand slid up his back slowly 'till his fingers touched the nap of his neck, still kissing him as the hand that had previously been on his chin moved down between the half-Elf's legs. The hand pressed palm down against his half-hard length beneath his pants gently, causing a slightly strangled sound to escape Tanis against his lips.

"Gilthas!" Tanis gasped, moaning helplessly and opening his legs wider as his cousin bore him down to the pillows on his back again. "Oh, gods.."

"Is this alright, cousin? Are you really comfortable with this arrangement?"

"Gods of Krynn, yes.. Please.. Do not stop.."

Laurana moved forward then to kiss Tanis with a smile, the brother and sister both enjoying the desperate, almost pleading sounds that he made as Gilthas continued to stroke him through the fabric of his pants. The gentle touch made him moan and shake with every minor adjustment of Gilthanas's slender Elven fingers on his now fully hard, over-excited shaft.

Tanis was partially distracted then when Laurana's previously chaste kiss deepened suddenly, so he nearly came undone when he felt Gilthas's warm hand slip inside his pants now to touch and caress his cock lightly.

"Gil!" Tanis screamed, shocked by the force of his own response when his hips jerked, canting upward sharply to push into the strokes.

He was trembling hard as the male Elf stroked him faster now and Laurana slipped her tongue into his mouth again, the damp muscle lapping at Tanis's own.

Gilthanas's lips twitched into a slight smirk, the hand that was on the back of Tanis's neck moving down so that he could tug down his cousin's pants. He tossed them aside as Laurana started on Tanis's shirt while she continued to kiss him. Gilthas slid the other male's undergarments down and out of the way to place them with the pants.

He pushed Tanis's legs up and back then, Laurana finishing removing his shirt just as two of Gilthanas's fingers, wet with oil, moved between his legs to caress his shaft and sack. The touch caused him to moan and cry out, before the fingers drifted down between the rounded swells of his backside.

Tanis's eyes went wide as he stared up at the ceiling, shuddering hard when the damp fingertips brushed over his hole lightly and with obvious tenderness. His leg muscles felt limp, weak, like most ale that was not brewed and sold at the Inn of the Last Home.

"Gilthas!" Tanis groaned softly, panting as he quivered and shook with physical need. "Please.. Please, cousins.. No more play. I cannot stand it. I need you.."

Gilthanas nodded, causing a startled gasp to escape Tanis when Laurana suddenly moved back so the other male could flip Tanis over onto his belly now. He pulled the half-Elf up onto his hands and knees so that a now completely naked Laurana could slip beneath Tanis's equally bare body. Laurana reached up to twine her arms around Tanis's neck, drawing him down for a kiss to try to soothe and relax him, knowing what her brother was about to do.

Tanis shuddered hard, kissing her back gently, and she could feel him shaking where their bodies were pressed intimately together. Tanis shivered as their bodies met, hearing Gilthas removing his own clothing before his male cousin moved up behind him. He placed warm, tender kisses from the nape of Tanis's neck down to his shoulder blades, then down his spine to the small of his back, only then slipping a single oil-slick finger inside him carefully and slowly.

Tanis jerked in reaction, crying out involuntarily at Gilthanas's intimate touch. Laurana pulled Tanis back into their kiss as her brother thrust the finger in and out of his entrance, getting him used to the feel of it before carefully adding a second finger. Tanis was shuddering and clutching Laurana tightly for balance in a world suddenly full of stars when Gilthas's fingers hit something deep inside him.

"Gil!" Tanis moaned softly, burying his face against Laurana's neck, feeling her left hand rubbing his shoulders soothingly. "Oh, Gods, Gilthas.. Please!"

Gilthanas nodded to his sister over their cousin's shoulder, so she nodded back with a slight smile, reaching with her right hand down between her and Tanis's bodies. He gasped softly when she positioned him at the entrance to her body just as Gilthas moved into position above Tanis, the golden haired man kissing the back of his neck as he pushed forward inside him, the movement pushing his cousin's hips down so that he was now buried inside Laurana's body.

Tanis and Laurana gasped together, panting as they stared at each other, their eyes dilating with pain and pleasure both. The pain slowly receded as none of them moved, just adjusting to the new relationship between them and their bodies.

Then, as Gilthanas started to move, pleasure flooded them in a wave as their bare skin tingled where they brushed against each other. The intensity increased quickly until the three of them all found release together, the silence comforting as they lay entwined together afterwards and drifted slowly into dreams.

Raistlin opened his Mage shop the next day directly after breakfast, grateful that Caramon kept Taz busy and out of the shop. By the end of the workday he was exhausted, though, as practically the entire town had stopped by just to poke around and be nosy. He'd had two customers. Mages both, though white-robed, not red.

But they had been impressed with his wide selection and had purchased many things, so he was relieved as he stepped through the door that led from the workroom to the house, pushing back his hood and sighing tiredly when he heard Tasselholf call out to him excitedly.

"Raist, Raist!" the Kender said, bouncing up and down as he reached for his hand, not perturbed in the least when the Mage instantly pulled that hand out of his reach. "Guess what I found! Come see! Come see!" Raistlin followed the Kender into the visiting room as he prattled on still. "Caramon wouldn't let me talk to you, because you were working, but now you're done! Isn't he beautiful?"

Raistlin froze as he saw Caramon sitting in one of their two chairs that his older twin had made himself, his golden-hourglass eyes staring at the sight. Caramon was awkwardly holding a tiny baby, feeding it from a makeshift bottle.

"Caramon said we could keep it!" Taz continued with a wide grin. "Isn't that awesome? He said-"

"Taz," Raistlin said, cutting him off in a low voice. "Go upstairs."

"But, Raist-"

"Now!" the red-robed Mage snapped, his eyes blazing with an indefinable emotion.

Taz sighed, but he obeyed him, seeming to sense not to push the man despite his unfearing Kender blood, going upstairs to his room with a mischievous smile on his small face.

"Caramon, we cannot keep that baby. We do not even know who it belongs to. Why, by the red moon, did you encourage him?"

"I didn't, Raist," Caramon said quietly as he lifted his head to look up at his brother now. "I said that we'd keep him overnight and I would go look for his mother in the morning. Taz said that he found him on the front steps, though."

"Oh," Raistlin said, visibly deflating as his tiredness returned now that his will wasn't being defied by his brother and lover. "Well, that's different. I am going up to bed. You deal with the child."

Tanis smiled lazily, feeling contented where he lay curled between Gilthanas and Laurana. The two Elves were still asleep while he half-dozed beside them both.

Eventually he crawled out from between the brother and sister reluctantly, dressing before leaving them a quick note informing them that he would be returning soon.

Flint looked up from where he sat on a stump whittling at a piece of wood just outside the borders of Qualinost, seeing Tanis slip out of the trees. The half-Elf's walk looked stronger, the Dwarf thought as he studied him closely. His face was more confident as he strode toward his long-time friend, stopping in front of him with a wide smile and bright eyes.

"So. Got yourself sorted, lad?"

"Yes," Tanis answered him, smiling wider. "Yes, I do. I am staying here. At least, for now. Can you go and retrieve Taz and then get back to Solace on your own?"

"Aye, lad. Don't you worry about me. Good luck with.. Whatever it is you're doing."

"Thank you. I will come see you sooner or later, I imagine."

"Tanthalas! Where have you been?" Laurana chided him as he tried to quietly slip back into Gilthas's rooms unnoticed, quickly pulling the door shut behind him before her voice woke anyone.

"Just for a walk. I left a note."

"Which did not answer my sister's question," Gilthanas spoke now from where he stood beside her, continuing when he realized that Tanis was obviously puzzled by their behavior. "We were worried about you."

"Why? I can take care of myself. I have been for years."

"We know that, cousin. It is partly our fault, after all," Gilthas replied softly. "But all the same, it is customary to inform lovers of a departure, and not with a note."

"Really? Well, then.. I am sorry. I have never been in a serious relationship. …Kit never cared when I left, only that I came back. I will tell you both the next time before I go."

"Thank you," Gilthas said, reaching out to slip his arms around Tanis's waist and draw him close.

Laurana slipped her arms around their cousin from behind, snuggling close against his back with a soft and happy sigh.
