With the celebrations regarding Freya and Gideon's Ritual of Marking winding down, most of the guests had already left to return to their respective homes. Xenia and Darius, along with their men and entourage, however, were still in the Everett Mansion to stay the night before they left for their own respective journeys tomorrow morning.
There was still more to be done once they all continued their travels beyond the mansion, and she could only shake her head as she watched Darius's men drag Bartos, and Gilas back into their respective chambers.
Really, didn't they know that they still had to leave tomorrow? Then again, maybe it was just the celebrations getting the best of them.
"I'll be going ahead then, Your Grace," Clara politely nodded as she bid her good night before then following the men carrying Gilas.
"I should go too then," Jayra sighed as she glared at Bartos. "Goodness, I can't believe he knocked himself out like that!"
"Be nice and tend to your man, my friend. He's been through a lot while you were unconscious," Xenia chuckled. "I guess you can say that he's just unwinding at the moment."
"I guess so," Jayra shrugged. "But anyways, we'll be going ahead. Good night, Your Grace... Your Majesty..." Her friend then gave her and Darius a curt bow.
"Rest well," Xenia commented. "I'll send you off tomorrow morning."
As some of her friends left the table, she let out a small smile as she felt Darius and Osman approach her table from the side.
"Those two... I still can't believe how our discussion ended up with them talking about our mates and their beauty," Darius snorted with a grin.
"Including Osman? He has no mate..." Bella, who was on the sidelines with Aurelia, commented.
"But I have you," Osman shamelessly replied, making Bella blush fiercely.
Xenia couldn't believe what she was witnessing. There was no doubt how Osman fell into Bella. He was head over heels for how he was looking at Bella. Not to mention how shameless he was in declaring his love vocally in front of others. It was the first time she witnessed her friend like this and she couldn't help but be happy for him. Her eyes lingered on Lady Bella who was still blushing.
'Those two indeed look good together,' she mused, agreeing with what Jayra told her. The two were like love birds already with how they exchanged looks with one another with those sparkling eyes of theirs.
"I'll go ahead and escort Lord Calypso into getting settled in his assigned bedchamber, Your Majesty," Aurelia casually interrupted, standing up and quickly leaving with the men carrying Calypso next as soon as Darius gave her permission.
And with that, Xenia was left with Bella, Osman, and Darius for company.
"Looks like you and Osman were the last men standing, my love," Xenia proudly remarked. "I'm proud that you have good alcohol tolerance."
"Well, Osman here honestly has the most tolerance for alcoholic drinks out of all of us," Darius chuckled. "I'm sure that if we didn't stop, I'll probably be knocked out as well while he remains standing."
He then turned to pull her closer to him. "We'll be going ahead," he said as he turned to Osman. "You should also rest soon. You have an early journey to lead tomorrow."
"I understand, Your Majesty," Osman politely bowed together with Bella. "Good night to you and Her Majesty..."
With a polite nod, Xenia and Darius went towards the hall's exit. Gideon's mother then approached them to personally walk them to the bedchamber they'd prepared for them. They reached their room and the two thanked Lady Rosa for the great hospitality.
As soon as the few servants around them left, Xenia quickly dipped into the warm bath already prepared for them in the tub.
"Hmm, this feels good. The Everett Manor is a huge place," she murmured as she waited for Darius to join her. "Freya will surely get busy managing it while also being busy with the pack as their new Luna..."
"Indeed, my love, but not as busy as you are. Have you seen your schedule? It's so full," Darius remarked as he joined her.
"After sending Jayra and the rest away tomorrow, we'll be going straight to the Moonlight Pack Territory. My pack members are dying to meet their Luna. Well, some already saw you when they watched you from the shrines and the arena, but not all were able to get a proper look at you..." he absently added. "Do you know that they're already demanding that I bring you there?"
Instead of the usual reply, Xenia moaned when she felt Darius's lips go up her bare shoulders all the way up to her neck. She opened her eyes to meet his, her excitement to visit her mate's territory and meet his pack shining through her eyes.
"Should I show them my wings too?" she jested.
"No! Don't flaunt it often, my love!" Darius quickly denied it with a pout. "You haven't even let me see it up close for a long time now."
Seeing his expression made Xenia chuckle. "I'll show it to you later in full view after getting cleaned up, my love," she murmured before pushing him onto the edge of the tub and straddling him. She then showered his face with light kisses before she asked, "Are you sober enough?"
"Can't you feel how sober I am right now?" Darius hummed before letting a groan when she intentionally brushed herself against his hard length. She could feel his overflowing desire for her already, in the same way that its intensity was always so high.
"I do feel it... That's why I'll quickly ease your tension before showing you my wings," she whispered into his lips before engulfing his erectness into her slit. Both of them moaned into each other's mouths as she began her movements, rocking and riding him as she made herself comfortable.
[My love... How can you always drive me insane like this?] Darius hummed through their Mate Bond.
Xenia simply smirked. How she hoped she could mark him in the same way that werewolves did, but she couldn't...
"Why are you thinking like that? You had marked me already, and no symbol could ever be a better proof of that," Darius hummed as he played with one of her peaks with his mouth. "You're all over me, my love... An invisible symbol that had marked every part and inch of my body and soul..."
Xenia moaned as she flexed her body forward to give him more access to her mounds. He was not the only one going insane because the feelings were very mutual.
Making love like this with someone you so loved was so pleasurable, and her gentle movements soon sped up until both of them reached the highest peak of their climax together. Their bodies shuddered in extreme ecstasy, their passion bleeding off them in spades.
They both looked at each other in want, but they knew that they still had something else to do. After cleaning up, Xenia didn't bother putting on her clothes as she revealed her white wings to her husband. It was only a good thing that the bedchamber assigned to them was so spacious for them to do this.
Xenia waited patiently, and she held her moan as Darius lovingly touched and caressed her wings the moment she spread them. She could feel his warm palms against her feathers, and the feelings she was getting from them were exquisite...

"Hmm... At first, it does, but it gradually just felt better," Xenia explained as she slowly moved her wings. "It honestly fascinates me... Before, I felt like all the bones on my back were breaking, and it feels like hell with an indescribable pain constantly shooting up my spine. But now, it still feels the same, but without any of the pain associated with it."
"I honestly need more practice," she humorously added. "I guess I'll be staying on our castle roofs a lot more in the future to spread my wings without getting too much attention..."
She held a smile, but her sweet chuckles were soon replaced with moaning as soon as Darius's hands started touching her naked and sensitive parts instead.
He was simply insatiable and she was the same... The cravings between them simply grew with each passing day. She could feel how her wings were reacting wildly with how her husband was teasing her with his touches. She could only bite her lower lip as she tried to suppress her moans.
"I wonder how it would feel to make love to you with you with your wings out like this, my love..." he hummed, and she could feel his excitement through their Bond.
"Shall we see then? But you have to prepare yourself for any damage that may occur inside this bedchamber," she timidly warned. "I'm not sure how my wings would react during the intense climax, after all..."
