Chapter title from "Whenever, Wherever" by Shakira
It was easier this time. More fluid. Nearly four months had passed since Colleen's birthday, their last night together as a true foursome, rather than split off in pairs. After being so long without each other, awkwardness seemed to give way to instinct. And the instincts between the four of them had simmered to the boiling point.
"The baby was born today," Severus announced, stalking into the parlor where the Blacks and Lupins were playing a Muggle board game with Ben. "Rhiannon's emotions are on edge. And she needs us. Now."
Sirius looked to Remus, who nodded quickly and suggested to Ben an adventure in the village involving ice cream and taking the new puppy (Beedle, for Ben's new favorite book) for a long walk.
"We owe you two many nights of babysitting," Colleen told the Lupins warmly, then she and Sirius fell in line behind Severus. When they reached the Snapes' bedroom, the wizards embraced Rhiannon immediately, one in front of her and one behind.
"Hey, you." Sirius tilted Rhiannon's chin up and pressed a playful kiss to the tip of her nose. "No more sadness. We've got you, all right?"
Rhiannon gave him a smile and nodded. Sirius lifted Rhiannon's blouse over her head as Severus lowered her skirt, and the witch's small body seemed to disappear under the wizards' combined magic of powerful hands, decisive lips, and broad muscle. Colleen took a seat on the chaise and curled her knees up to her chest.
"Come here, love," Sirius encouraged, holding a hand out to her.
Colleen shook her head. "I want you both to make love to Rhiannon for now, and I want to watch. She needs you."
Rhiannon broke away to give Colleen a hug. "Thank you. Please come over if you change your mind though, okay?" She then darted to the dresser to prepare a candle.
"What's the rune this time?" Colleen called to her.
"Resolution," Rhiannon answered, looking pointedly at the two wizards, who exchanged glances that were surprisingly calm and indeed resolved. The drive to take care of Rhiannon and give her what she needed seemed to supersede any tension or animosity that remained between the two men, at least in that moment. Colleen felt her stomach leap with anticipation.
Rhiannon moved back to the wizards, an arm coming around each, pulling them into her embrace. Her mouth closed over Severus's lips slowly, then Sirius's, back and forth, as if she were a match transferring flames between two candles and hoping they would burn hotter. Her radiant form was left only in silky black knickers as Sirius's anxious fingers removed her bra. As soon as the witch's supple breasts were exposed, his mouth attacked one and Severus's the other, their lips in perfect synch as they worked together to please her.
"Ohhhh," Colleen moaned, running a hand through her hair. There was nothing quite like watching porn starring three people you happened to love, especially when those three people were superhumanly beautiful. She didn't touch herself, instead allowing her own arousal to build unabated as the wizards sought to increase Rhiannon's. Sirius met her gaze with a grin, which Colleen returned by blowing him a kiss and arching her hips, letting him know she enjoyed the show.
"We'll be getting to you later, my love," Sirius whispered huskily, and Colleen nodded.
Severus took the liberty of removing both wizards' clothes with his wand, a fact which received raised eyebrows and another grin from Sirius.
"Eager to get me naked, huh, Sev?"
"Expediting the necessary measures, Black. Calm yourself."
Colleen did notice Severus's black eyes drift over Sirius's tattooed perfection a bit longer than usual. It had been four months since they'd all been truly together. Perhaps absence really did make the heart grow fonder...and certain appendages grow larger. Sirius noticed Severus's arousal, of course, and he wore a proud smirk.
Severus abandoned their clothes in a pile on the floor, an uncharacteristic move for his normally strict desire for order. They both closed back in on Rhiannon, each placing a hand beneath her arm to lift her and toss her onto the bed in one seamless move. Colleen watched as the two wizards' naked bodies covered the witch's, their mouths coming to each side of her neck and sucking, once again in perfect synch. There was no gap between them, Gryffindor skin meeting Slytherin, hips grinding into their Thunderbird lover's body as they covered her in breathless kisses. Rhiannon cried out in ecstasy, her legs falling open and knees drawing them even closer together.
Severus lowered himself to lick his wife's folds, leaving Sirius to attend to her breasts. Rhiannon's fingers tangled in the wizards' luxurious locks, her eyes remaining open to watch them make love to her. Colleen could feel the presence of the witch's every fantasy in the room there with them— each time she'd dreamed of having the two of them, only to be forced to push her desire aside. Her emerald eyes danced with happiness and fulfillment. Sirius paused in his suckling of her breast to meet her gaze, and he seemed to communicate silently with her about something. He suddenly sat up with a wink in Colleen's direction.
Colleen felt her jaw drop open. Sirius's long hands came to Severus's muscular legs, lifting them to swivel him sideways on the mattress. Severus's head sprang up from between his wife's thighs, eyes sharp.
"What the hell are you doing, Black?"
"Shut up, Snape," Sirius returned. "You're not in charge this time. Your wife is, and she wants me to make you lose your mind. Temporarily, of course."
Sirius didn't waste another minute, lowering his lean, limber body to take what he'd been wanting for months now. His hands were firm on Severus's thighs as his tongue slid up the underside of the Slytherin's erect length. Sirius went right for the most sensitive spot, his tongue as firm as his hand, which grabbed Severus's shaft with a series of skilled strokes.
"Fucking Merlin," Severus muttered. He clutched Sirius's curls tightly and yanked him upward, causing Sirius to yelp.
"All this means is that you're my little bitch, do you understand me?" Severus hissed.
"Clear as crystal," Sirius replied lightly, licking his lips. "But only in the bedroom."
Severus smacked Sirius's face, only half as hard as he had over a month ago when he'd actually meant it. Sirius knelt on the bed facing Severus, their cocks now fully stiff and pointed in the air. Colleen and Rhiannon exchanged smiles as they watched, holding their breaths.
"Well?" Severus demanded. "Get on with it then."
Sirius's confidence extended to everything, even uncharted territory. His mouth closed over Severus's tip, and Sirius groaned hungrily as his lips moved downward, locked in a suction over every inch. Rhiannon's hands returned to both of her lovers' hair, guiding Severus back into position to worship her clit, encouraging Sirius in his attention to Severus. Colleen just stared, enthralled. Her husband's hand ran over Severus's arse and played with his balls, his head bobbing up and down on the man's cock, eager to please him. Sirius was an incredible lover, and clearly Severus was no exception to his rule. He had the wizard moaning and sending curses (the Muggle kind) into his wife's depths as he attempted to concentrate on the task of pleasing her.
"Sirius, you're so amazing," Rhiannon praised him. "Look at you, making my husband come undone."
"Damn it, Rhiannon," Severus groaned in response. The witch raised herself up and spun around, her face now in line with her husband's as she lay on her stomach and kissed him softly. Her tongue traced his lips, moving in and out, teasing him. She moved closer, running one hand over Severus's chest and allowing the other to massage Sirius's back as he continued to work his magic on Severus. Sirius was deep throating his former enemy now, effortlessly and enthusiastically, driving moan after tortured moan from Severus's mouth.
It was finally too much for Colleen, who stood shakily to remove her jeans. She laid back against the lounge and began to finger herself through her soaked knickers, letting out a cry of her own. Sirius raised his eyes to her and gave her a second wink, his tongue lashing all over Severus's cock one last time before coming to his knees.
"You're so hot, over there, baby girl, touching that sweet pussy," Sirius said, tugging at his own straining member now as he watched Colleen for a few moments. Colleen slid two fingers inside of herself and arched with exaggerated moans, spurred on in her own performance by his compliment.
Severus's hands rubbed his forehead, clearly still mentally recovering from Sirius's actions. Colleen's lustful cries attracted his attention as well, and he turned on his side to watch her hand glide in and out. His erection was swollen and wet from Sirius's ravenous mouth, and the sight of Colleen pleasuring herself only made it worse.
"Come here, Colleen Black," he dared her in a low growl.
Colleen grinned seductively and shook her head. "Not yet." Her voyeuristic role was still far too enjoyable to abandon.
Rhiannon rose and immediately crashed into Sirius's arms, kissing him deeply. His hands cupped the gentle swell of her behind, and he sealed her against his throbbing length. As Sirius gyrated against her, Colleen could see each muscle of his arse twitch with his movements. Her husband was so fucking gorgeous. Using his expert wandless magic, Sirius held out a hand and sent his wand flying to him. He then pointed it to Rhiannon's bum and cast a lubrication charm.
"That's one way to do it," Rhiannon laughed against his mouth. Sirius grinned and slid behind her, running his hard cock between the cheeks of her arse, which were now dripping with a thick, magical gel. His head reared back with pleasure.
Severus let out a deep breath before coming to kneeling position himself. He leveled his gaze with Sirius's for a moment before moving closer to the pair, lining his own cock up with his wife's wet slit.
"Yes!" Rhiannon begged. "I need you both to fuck me now. Please."
Severus placed a tender hand on her cheek and kissed her lips, pushing her back onto the center of the pillows. Rhiannon immediately lifted her leg for Severus to slip into her dripping hole, while Sirius laid behind her and found the tight ring of her arse once again. His spell must have been effective, because the witch required very little time to adjust before Sirius's inches disappeared inside her, and she cried out with delight at the fullness. Severus drove forward as well, causing Sirius to grunt.
"Fuck, yeah, Sev— I can feel every ridge of your cock when we're like this," Sirius rasped. His arm came around to embrace both Snapes, bringing their three bodies as close together as their spooning position would allow.
"I never knew I could feel this full," Rhiannon said blissfully, her words dancing on a series of panting breaths as she squirmed between them.
The next few minutes were a blur of lips and hands layered atop raw, passionate fucking. The wizards spent most of their time making love to Rhiannon— teasing, torturing, and worshiping her skin, ravaging her holes, making her scream their names. But every so often the wizards' caresses would find each other, a little bit rougher— pinching, squeezing, groping.
Their eyes met at one point, gazes heated. Sirius gripped Severus's left forearm, his hand splayed over his Death Eater tattoo. Severus tried to wrestle it away, but Sirius's grip tightened. Their eyes battled, their voices silent. Was it some sort of magical exchange? Or just a final farewell to their divisive past?
Rhiannon's eyes shifted between them, and she wiggled her hips a bit, first in Sirius's direction, then Severus's, evidently tightening her muscles around their cocks. They both interrupted their stares to let out small moans. Sirius charged forward in one swift movement, nearly crushing Rhiannon as his mouth found Severus's with determination. Colleen heard Severus grunt in surprise and confusion, but Rhiannon immediately started kissing and tonguing her husband's neck in an effort to relax him.
"It's fine, Severus," she whispered. "Just let us all love you." She maneuvered her hips on his shaft in a circular motion, and Sirius mirrored her movements to ensure her comfort. He plowed Severus's mouth with his tongue again, naturally, as if it were truly the inevitable culmination of their lifelong battle.
Colleen watched, fixated on their strong hands buried in one another's soft, dark hair. She was fascinated by the phenomenon; they were still Severus and Sirius— powerful, masculine— the same men that worshipped their wives. But they now experimented with a similar yet adorably hesitant reverence for one another. It was a euphoric sense of completion, knowing the four of them finally had a chance of being one.
"Fuck, Black," Severus muttered. Colleen wasn't sure if that was a protest or a command. He brought his arm around to grip Sirius for stability, and the two wizards began a coordinated movement in and out of Rhiannon, rubbing their long cocks together through the thin sheath that separated them within her.
"Yes...oh, sweet goddess, yes!" Rhiannon cried. She gripped them both for dear life, and Colleen could see that the witch was literally crying now, tears streaming down her cheeks. The intensity of having her greatest wish come true was nearly too much for her.
The wizards responded by kissing her tenderly—shoulder, back, neck, cheek— whatever they could reach. Their lips would meet each other's again every so often, then they would dive right back in to kissing and cherishing her. Colleen had a perfect view of Sirius's and Severus's huge cocks, thick and swollen and shiny with Rhiannon's juices, thrusting wildly between her legs. Sirius took charge at one point, pushing his two partners backward so he was on top, bucking and grunting. Severus let him have his fun for a bit, then he pushed them both and took his turn on top, directing them into a slower, more controlled pace. Colleen's head dug into the arm of the chaise as she arched against her hand, her mound on fire and her heart alive with love for three of them.
"Join us now, Colleen," Severus commanded, holding an arm out to her. He rolled back onto his side, bringing Rhiannon and Sirius with him as if they were one body now.
Colleen obeyed this time, crawling onto the bed and straddling Severus's thigh, her leg sandwiched between his and Rhiannon's. She threw her shirt off and removed her bra, and Sirius's hand rushed to cup her breast, thumbing her nipple. She was so turned on from the show that every sensation was magnified. She found a quick rhythm in striking her clit against Severus's muscular leg, at the point where it met his tight behind. The wizards matched her in their pummeling of Rhiannon's two holes.
The four of them were moving savagely now, Colleen feeling once again like some greater force was building around them, both fueled by their movements and feelings while also driving them. She continued to bear down on Severus and bent to bury her nose in the herbal-scented heaven of his raven hair. She then kissed the smoothly shaven skin of his cheek and squeezed her nails into the defined turns of his back. Sirius took Colleen's other hand in his and delicately kissed her fingertips, sucking them into his mouth sensuously, his eyes closed.
Rhiannon's moans picked up in their intensity as they filled the air. "Severus...oh yes...right there...please come inside me..."
Severus threw himself toward his wife passionately, locking his mouth to hers, and she became his sole focus. He continued to drive into the spot that had set her off, her sounds escalating until they hit a fevered pitch against his low, guttural groan. Colleen felt Sirius squeeze her hand, and they both continued the pace of their thrusts as the couple between them rode the waves of their peak. Rhiannon's aftershocks around Sirius's cock set him off soon after, his shouts of her name echoing through the room. Tears streamed down Rhiannon's face once again.
"I love you...all of you," she whispered, still convulsing. "I needed you both like this for so long, Severus...Sirius. And Colleen...you just make it all complete. Please tell me it will be like this forever...all of us."
Colleen moved over to kiss the witch, laying her body atop hers. "Yes," she whispered. "We're meant to be together. I think we all understand that now."
Colleen felt Severus's fingers slip between her legs, the attentive wizard aware that she still needed to come. Colleen closed her eyes and basked in the sweet taste of Rhiannon's mouth while Severus pumped his fingers in and out of her wetness, massaging her g-spot, summoning her orgasm masterfully. Her head laid gently against the witch's shoulder as she mewled into the skin of her neck, her climax a series of gentle tremors. Colleen felt Sirius's powerful hand on her back, transmitting the magic of their bond into her, and her mind faded into dreamy oblivion.
"You're not done yet, kitten," Colleen vaguely heard Sirius whisper, his breath hot on her ear. "I promised I'd get to you next, didn't I?"
She was like a rag doll as Sirius lifted her off Rhiannon, depositing her onto the mattress at the witch's side. Severus, ever the clinician, waved his wand in Sirius's direction to clean him off after the latter's backdoor adventure.
"Thanks, lover," Sirius said cheerfully, and he was met with a grimace.
Colleen felt her husband's warmth envelop her as their lips met, and she ran her hands over the thin layer of sweat that covered his body. Sirius connected her beauty marks with a path of kisses along her pale skin, his tongue soft and gentle, his locks of hair equally so, sweeping over the trail left by his mouth.
"God, Sirius, I love you so fucking much," Colleen whispered. And she did. She felt like she would explode with how much she wanted, needed and loved their foursome, but then when Sirius made it just about the two of them again, she shook with the reminder of the power. His mouth reached the junction of her thighs and parted them with his nose, nuzzling gently in the crease of her thigh and breathing in.
"Mmm," he moaned. "How do you always smell so damn perfect?"
"Because I'm yours," Colleen moaned back, arching in a desperate request for a second climax. Sirius granted her request and worked his magical tongue between her legs.
"Gods, you taste perfect too," he declared. "How do all three of you taste so fucking good? I could eat you all day and never do anything else."
"Imagine that, a dog lying around licking bits all day," Severus remarked.
"I didn't hear any complaints from you earlier regarding my 'bit-licking,'" Sirius retorted.
"Yes, you are very, very good at licking bits," Colleen agreed as Sirius returned to drawing designs on her clit. His rhythm sent a feeling of unfurling through her, like she was a flower opening to the sun. Only in reality she was opening to her husband, the brightest of stars, as the most beautiful of orgasms overtook her again.
When her mind cleared, she opened her eyes and moved to snuggle in with Rhiannon in an effort to marry their post-orgasmic energies together. It was one of her favorite feelings — a complete understanding of shared feminine power between them. But she found the witch staring at Severus intently, stroking his hair as he rested his head on her stomach and massaged it with a gentle hand. Colleen suddenly felt like she was intruding on a private moment.
"Did we just make baby?" Sirius sat up, his face ecstatic. Clearly he didn't see it as an intrusion.
"Rhiannon and I likely made a baby, and you were spectators," Severus corrected him.
"Hey, I played a part," Sirius said petulantly.
"Shall I invite you to Hogwarts to sit in on a Practical Magic class, Black? Babies are not made in arseholes."
"No, but I had a role in Rhiannon's orgasm. And yours, I might add," Sirius insisted. "And my wife held her and kissed her and gave her all those feel-good hormones she needs to help it take. We're family, Snape, whether you like it or not."
"Why are you so hell-bent on this?" Severus asked him, his cheek still against Rhiannon's womb as he studied the other wizard incredulously. "You despise me, do you not?"
Sirius heaved a sigh and threw the covers up to settle beneath them, holding Colleen close. He reached a hand over to rub Rhiannon's belly, right next to Severus's face. "I don't know where you've been, Sev, but I haven't despised you for a long time. You still irritate the hell out of me, don't get me wrong, but I like it that way. You do too. This works, if you'll just stop asking questions."
"Wait a minute," Colleen interrupted. "How do you all know we made a baby? It's been fifteen minutes, at most."
Rhiannon smiled serenely. "Intuition, intention, and the unfortunate biological fact of a lifetime of painful ovulation. The chances are very, very good."
"What about the war?" Colleen protested. "You suddenly want this, just because you held a baby today?" She wasn't trying to be argumentative, but her fears were eating away at her. It just didn't seem like a good idea.
Rhiannon shrugged and ran her hands lovingly along her husband's back. "Yes, and no. Yes, it felt amazing to hold a little one that was sort of a part of me, and to know that I could create one that truly was. And Severus and I have been working through some memories of my own mom, and it just got me in a mood, I guess. Severus has wanted this for awhile, and now that he and Sirius have reconciled and connected, it just seems right."
"But we've talked about this, Rhiannon! You said you weren't ready, and you said you..."
Sirius raised his finger to Colleen's lips and silenced her, pressing a tender kiss to her cheek. "You gotta get out of that head, love," he chided her softly. "Sometimes you just have to trust the universe on these things."
Colleen looked to Severus meekly, her last hope. "Severus? You're so practical! How could you want to take a chance like this?"
Severus reached up to stroke Colleen's other cheek. "Not to ruin the sentimentality of the moment, but my reasons are rather morbid, I suppose," he began in a low voice. "I have played a double role for a long time now. And as things come to their conclusion, I'm sure I will be forced to come out of the shadows and declare a final allegiance. No mercy will be shown to me by either side, and I need to be prepared. I need to know I've left something behind."
Colleen's eyes filled with tears, his statement doing nothing to assuage her anxiety. She felt all three of them move in to comfort her, but it did little to help. She was the only one in the bed who knew, at a fundamental, cellular level, what it was like to love a child so much that you would do anything in the universe to keep them alive and safe. And that task seemed so impossible in this current state of the wizarding world that Colleen couldn't fathom taking on such a risk willingly. Rhiannon was so young, so vibrant, and had so much time left for all that. It just didn't make sense.
"It makes sense to me," Rhiannon whispered, her big green eyes already apologetic for stealing Colleen's thoughts.
Colleen half nodded, half shook her head, and bit her lip. "Okay. I know it's your decision to make. And Severus's. I just love you. And I care."
Rhiannon kissed her lips sweetly. "I love you too. And I know you care. We're going to be fine. I can feel it."
"So I guess there's no sense asking if you want to join her?" Sirius inquired of Colleen, grinning as he propped his hands behind his head. "I think I've got another round in me if you want to try."
"For Morgana's sake, Sirius Black, read the room," Severus muttered in annoyance. "That's clearly the last thing your wife wants right now."
Sirius blue-gray eyes lit up. "You used my first name! You're in love with me!"
Severus didn't grace that with a response. "I'm going to start dinner," he told them, pulling on khakis and one of the Muggle button-ups Rhiannon had bought him for Christmas. He looked so handsome in Muggle clothes. Colleen was certain he could have a modeling career if he ever left the wizarding world, with his dark, angsty, mysterious aesthetic.
"I'll help you, Severus," Colleen said, dressing herself quickly.
"And I'll love on our baby," Sirius announced, planting a series of adoring kisses on Rhiannon's flat stomach.
Colleen suppressed a sigh along with the pang of jealousy that had triggered the sigh in the first place. It was one thing for a witch to feel confident enough to bear a child in the midst of war; it was quite another for a helpless Muggle. It served as yet another reminder of her inadequacy. With a frown, she tied a long sweater around herself and took off downstairs to the kitchen. Severus followed and abruptly stopped her before she could open the fridge. He pulled her into his firm embrace, his sturdy hand clutching her head to his chest.
"This changes nothing,"Severus told her. "We love you, and we need you. And the time for your pups will come. I will do everything in my power to make it safe for you and give you peace of mind. Do you understand?"
"Yes," Colleen replied softly. "And I'm sorry. I don't mean to be so petty." She rubbed her cheek along the softness of Severus's shirt and allowed herself to be comforted by the sturdiness of his body.
"It's instinct, darling, you can't help it," he told her with a small smile. His fingers wrapped themselves up in a curl of her hair. "But it's an unfounded worry. No one could ever take your place, with Black or with us."
"Sirius— not 'Black,'" Colleen reminded Severus teasingly, giving his waist a squeeze. "I think you can be on a first name basis with the man who sucked your cock."
"Please don't remind me," he sighed.
"It couldn't have been that bad," she continued to tease. "Having him submit to you like that, after all these years? And it was so unbelievably hot."
"Was it now?" Severus murmured, his faint smile still sly.
"Mmm-hmm. I have so many more ideas for you two that would be just as hot, if you're interested."
"Is this the dirty talk game that you and your husband so love to play, Colleen Black? How long have the two of you been narrating these depraved scenarios as you shag one another?"
"I refuse to self-incriminate," she answered with a grin, and she drew his face to hers, slipping her tongue in to play with his. Severus's large hands toyed with the flesh of her behind, bestowing a couple of delicious smacks upon her.
"We're going to have re-negotiate the terms of this arrangement," Severus mumbled into her mouth. "I'd rather enjoy railing you on this kitchen counter right now."
"Agreed," Colleen murmured back. "But how do we know they aren't up there railing on the bed?"
"Spell," Severus replied with a smirk. "The soul bond is a beautiful thing, to be tweaked at will, and I'm going to be damn sure this child is mine."
Colleen laughed and gave him one last squeeze before starting dinner. "Severus?"
"Yes, Colleen?"
"Let's not go four months without all being together again. Promise me?"
"You have my word."
