“You sure you’re ok with this love?” Liam asked as he got dressed.
“Liam, I’m sure. We had two whole weeks on our honeymoon. Go enjoy your night with Drake.” Athena answered as she straightened his shirt collar and gave him a chaste kiss.
“Ok, then. I’ll you tomorrow then my queen. I love you more than you’ll ever know.” Liam said.
“And I love you my king. See you tomorrow.” Athena said as he left their suite.
As Liam walked down the hall to meet Drake he ran into Savannah.
“Liam!” Savannah said not caring about formal titles, “I need to talk to you!”
“Can this wait Savannah? I’m off to meet Drake.” Liam replied.
“It’s about Drake.” She retorted.
Liam sighed, “fine, let’s head into my study.” He replied, hoping that he could resolve whatever was bothering Savannah quickly.
They entered Liam’s study, and he offered her a seat.
“I don’t need to sit. But you need to listen!” She all but shouted.
“Ok.” He replied, he had a feeling he knew what this was about, Drake had told him about Savannah’s concerns, but they had all thought she had come around, especially since she was at the hand fasting, clearly they were all mistaken. But why hadn’t she come to him sooner? There had been two days between Drake talking to her and the ceremony, why had she waited?
“I know you and Drake used to fool around after he came back from college, fine, but now you’re pulling him into some weird crazy poly life?! Why can’t you just let him be happy? He deserves to get married, have children, not be an accessory to the King and Queen, someone who only matters behind closed doors. He deserves a chance to be happy! He deserves to be loved!” Savannah yelled.
Liam was stunned, he felt like the wind had been knocked out of him. HE loved Drake, Athena loved Drake, THEY made him happy, why couldn’t she see that? The situation was far from ideal, he didn’t want to have to hide his love for Drake, but as king it’s what he had to do. He wished that Athena could have children with both men, but the paternity of the heir to the throne couldn’t be doubted. Liam felt a knot grow in the pit of his stomach, were these feelings coming from Drake or Savannah? Liam pinched the bridge of his nose between his thumb and forefinger.
“Savannah, I love Drake, as does Athena. We want nothing more than to make Drake happy and give him everything he wants. We have talked about it, and he doesn’t want kids, he wants us. Ideally we wouldn’t have to hide, and he could have children of his own, but unfortunately I am king and that dictates part of the relationship. I want nothing more than to be able to be out in the open about my love for Drake, his love for us, Athena’s love for him, but the public wouldn’t understand, it could put his life at risk. Assassins tried to take Athena out, do you think they wouldn’t try the same with your brother? I care deeply about his happiness and safety.” He countered. Tears came to Liam’s eyes at the thought of the next words he had to say. “If he was unhappy, if he wanted more, truly wanted more, I would, we would let him go. All we want is for him to be happy and feel loved, and if we couldn’t give him that… It would hurt to give him up, let him go, but I would do it, for him. I would do anything to keep him from feeling hurt and unloved. Sav, I love him, I’ve loved him for years, we tried to end it when I got engaged, but Athena must have noticed something and she had the same feelings. Sav, we didn’t go into this lightly. Drake knows he can come to us with any concerns. All we want is for him to be happy.” Liam said, silent tears started falling at the thought of losing Drake.
Savannah’s face started to soften. She didn’t know he cared that deeply for her brother.
“I still have my concerns Liam. I don’t know if I’ll ever be okay with this Liam, my brother deserves better. He shouldn’t have to hide, I get you are trying to protect him, and for that I thank you. I just don’t see this working. I see this ending with my brother’s heart shattered. Liam, I don’t care if it’s treason, you break my brother’s heart and you won’t have to worry about being king any longer.” Savannah stated.
Liam was shocked that Savannah had just threatened him, he could understand but he was still shocked.
“Savannah, I promise you, I have no intentions of hurting Drake. Athena and I will do everything we can to make him happy the way he makes us happy. It won’t be easy, but relationships never are, they require work, and I promise you, we all intend to put in the work so our unconventional relationship will last.” Liam countered.
Savannah nodded.
“Now if you’ll excuse me, I was on my way to meet Drake and I’m sure he’s wondering what’s taking me.” Liam stated leaving the study.
************
Drake went to hug Liam as Liam entered the room, stopping when he noticed the dried tears.
“Liam, what’s wrong?” Drake asked.
Liam wiped his face, “Savannah confronted me on the way here….”he started.
“She what?! What did she say? She said she’d work on being okay with this, for me!” Drake said cutting Liam off.
“She seems to think I’m keeping you around as some shameful secret. She doesn’t think you are happy with us or could be happy with us. She thinks we are keeping you from having a family and being happy.” Liam replied.
“What?! Fucking Savi! I told her I was happy! I told her I only wanted all that with you and Athena! Why can’t she just let me be?” Drake roared, pacing the room.
“Savannah is just worried about you Drake. I wasn’t happy to hear her thoughts either, but she’s just trying to look out for you. I told her Athena and I would love nothing more than for our relationship with you to be out in the open, but I can’t risk it, I can’t risk YOU becoming a target. I’m already worried for Athena, someone already came after her once, who’s to say they won’t come after her again and succeed like with my mother? I couldn’t bear to be the reason both of you are at risk….” Liam said trailing off as once again tears appear in his eyes.
Drake turned, seeing the fear and heartbreak written on Liam’s face nearly broke him. “Liam, I understand, it sucks, but I understand.” He replied softly, closing the distance between them, placing a hand on Liam’s cheek.
“I told her….I told her that I only care about your happiness, and if you wanted out, I would, Athena and I would understand. It would…” Liam stated breaking off.
“Liam, I’m happy. I’m not going anywhere. I’ll talk to Sav, she shouldn’t have said anything.” Drake said softly, wiping tears from Liam’s face. Drake leaned in and kissed Liam. “You and Athena are all I need to be happy.” Drake promised.
Drake leaned in and kissed Liam harder, his hand slipping to undo Liam’s shirt buttons. Liam moaned into the kiss as they quickly shed their clothes. Their kisses became more heated, hands groping as Drake backed Liam towards the bed, falling into it. Drake’s hand wrapped around Liam’s cock stroking his thick length.
Liam broke the kiss, “I want you to fuck my tight ass.” He moaned.
Drake grabbed the lube, squirting some on his fingers, pushed Liam’s legs apart and started working him open. He slipped two fingers in Liam’s tight hole, slowly working them in and out. Drake scissored his fingers working Liam’s tight hole open. Drake worked in a third finger, twisting as he pumped his hand.
Drake removed his fingers, and lined the head of his lubed cock up with Liam’s tight hole, slowly pushing his length in, making Liam moan. Drake watched his face, taking in how Liam threw his head back a little, his half closed eyes, the way his lips were parted in a moan, this was the first time we was able to enjoy the site as he claimed Liam’s ass.
“You like that, huh? Like me fucking your ass.” Drake growled as he pounded his length into Liam, hitting his prostate with every thrust.
“Fuck! Yes! Fuck me Drake!” Liam moaned.
Drake wrapped his hand around Liam’s hard length, stroking him as he drove his cock into Liam’s ass. He stroked Liam’s cock in time with every hard thrust.
“Fuck Liam! Your ass feels so good around my cock.” Drake growled.
Drake pounded his cock into Liam’s tight hole, hitting his prostate over and over again.
“Oh fuck Drake!” Liam growled, fists in the sheets, head thrown back, eyes rolled back, mouth parted, glistening in a sheen of sweat. Drake was in awe of the look of Liam coming undone from his cock.
“That’s it, cum for me. Cum all over your stomach.” Drake groaned.
Liam came with a scream of Drake’s name mixed with expletives, streams of hot milky cum streaking his abdomen. Drake pounded into Liam’s prostate as he continued stroking Liam’s length, milking him for all that he was worth. Drake’s thrusts started to falter and his cock started to twitch and he came, throwing his head back spurting thick hot cum into Liam’s ass.
Drake pulled out, cleaned Liam up and collapsed next to him in bed. Drake and Liam laid in a tangle of arms, drifting off to sleep, Drake knowing he had to talk to Savannah.
A/N: I don’t have Savannah, but I really don’t think she would be onboard with the whole poly thing. I really feel she would be making waves thinking she was looking out for Drake. There will be at least one more angsty conversation with Savannah, and it might be a chapter that is strictly angst or at least smut free.
Sorry if the smut is off in this chapter. I owe you guys a PWP.
