HERMES
W as it possible for a god to be as nervous as a sophomore getting to go to senior prom?
The answer was yes.
My knees buckled as I pushed through Eros’s back gate.
My heart raced as I walked up the cobblestone pathway.
My skin perspired as I opened the back door.
How was this possible after all these years of feeling alone? Something had shifted beyond the pull I felt to him. Something else was happening. Apollo and Horus were first, then Eros, and now me. Three gods, all connected, had found their mates.
There were others. The last few years had been good to our kind. So many of us had stopped walking alone. Eternity was a lonely place when only lust had been your companion. Now, he was here. How many years of close encounters had we missed? How long had he been here? If I had walked down a different block or gotten sushi at a different restaurant, we might have found each other sooner.
One more flight of stairs.
He was up there waiting for me. Was he as confused as I was? Was he as sure of what we were to each other as I was? He had felt it. The connecting of two souls was not something that you could miss. It stops you in your tracks and slaps you across the face. It was the most magnificent and scary feeling in all the world.
It had finally happened to me.
The gift of Eros. The divine love of finding your other half – torn in two for too long – is now made whole.
I took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
It flew open, and there stood my love. Zeus, he was gorgeous. So tall – well built – with the most beautiful earth eyes – green like the moss that grew up the side of the tree. His blonde hair – messy curls so much like mine and Apollo’s. He truly belonged with the gods. He belonged to a god, and I belonged to him.
“Hi.” The air was knocked out of me as I stared at him.
“Hi.” His voice cracked.
“Can I…” I gestured to his room.
“Yes… No… I… Yes,” He nodded and stepped aside. “It’s so weird to… I feel like I know you, but…”
“You don’t. I feel the same way. I want to know everything.”
“I want to kiss you so badly.”
“I want to hold you so much that I ache.”
“I’m… Sam. I’m from Oklahoma, and I’m an elemental.”
“Earth, yes.”
“I’m not a good one, but yes. I can barely grow a… daisy.”
“I’m Hermes. I’ve existed for longer than I know in human years. I’m…”
“How long is that?” He looked at me so quizzically that I laughed.
“Thousands of your years. I was born after humans. But time is… I have yet to find a reason to think about it.” Standing here in front of my mate, it hit me – hard. He would have a human life. “I think about it now,” I sighed.
“Because of me? I wondered how that… I mean…”
“I don’t know what the future holds, Sam. But yes, because of you.” I nodded and reached my hand out.
“I have so many questions.” He placed his in mine and. It was so warm.
“As do I. I want to know every part of you. Everything about you is something I crave.”
“But we only have tonight. I mean, it’s very possible that the world will end in what… two days?”
“I will make sure that doesn’t happen.”
“I think it will, though. The prophecy is mine, and I am… broken.” He lowered his head and stared at the floor. I reached up and lifted his chin to stare into his eyes.
“I am a god, and there is nothing broken about you.”
“I think we’ve talked enough. If we only have tonight… There’s other things I’d rather do.”
“I thought you’d never ask.” I pulled him into me and tilted my head down to kiss him. He was tall, but I was taller. Our lips touched, and explosions happened throughout my body.
His hands reached up and wrapped around my neck. I wrapped mine around his torso and pulled him in tightly as our lips smashed into each other over and over. Our tongues slid over the others, and we breathed together in the dance that lovers around the world shared in. The passion of the kiss. The feeling of being one.
My hand slid down his back and I cupped his round ass cheek in my hand and squeezed. I could smell him… He was of the Earth – florals and greenery overcame my senses as I reveled in the heat of him. He threw his leg up against me and moaned into our kiss.
I picked him up and carried him over to the bed. Our lips never parting as I laid him down and carefully positioned myself on top of him. His hands raised the hem of my Kesha concert t- shirt, and he slid his fingers over my torso. I shuddered at the power of his touch.
I needed him. I had to feel his skin against mine.
“Clothes,” I sighed the word. “These have to come off.”
I broke the contact of our lips and felt so alone as I rolled off him and started taking my clothes off. He began to disrobe as quickly as I did. Shirt, pants, and undergarments until we were as we had originally come into this world.
He stretched his body out on the bed, and I growled at the sight of him. He had a tight muscular body and the smallest pink nipples. His smooth, alabaster chest was a thing of beauty, but nothing could compare to his face. So beautiful, so…
I ran my hand over his body, and he shivered. I let my fingers run across his hard cock and he shuddered as I touched it. It was as perfect as the rest of him. He took care of himself. His pubes were trimmed, and I could smell the soap from the shower he had taken not long ago.
He reached out and cupped my heavy balls in his hand. “It’s… wow. I…”
He was in shock over my godhood. It happened. I was a fertility god – the first of the phallic Greek gods. The fates had blessed me. It was a lot to take in, and I pushed my pelvis into his hand. My cock bounced against his skin.
It was hard to be a god, but someone had to do it.
“Is this real? This is… like… mega porn star dick… I… That might actually kill me before the end of the world,” he chuckled. “But I bet I die with a smile on my face.”
“I’ll make sure you survive.” I kissed him and ran my hands over his hard body. I nipped at his bottom lip and gently bit it.
“I just want to…” He pushed against my shoulders and rotated his body. “God, you’re so fucking hard.”
“Thousands of years in the gym and the metabolism of a god.” I chuckled.
His breath hit the tip of my cock and I moaned as his tongue flicked out and brushed against my helmet. He reached up and pulled my foreskin back and sucked on the tip. I ran my fingers through his blond curls as he slowly stroked my shaft.
“God, it’s thick… You taste like… honey?” He looked up at me and grinned.
“I…”
His mouth slid down my cock and I thrust forward with my hips as I stared at my beautiful man pleasuring me.
“God, that’s so…” I moaned.
He slid down further on my pole and began to bob up and down – sliding his mouth tightly. His tongue flicked around my glans, and I had to stop myself from throwing him down and having him right there. I needed him. I wanted to slide inside him so badly and watch as he writhed under my prowess.
Instead, I moaned with the pleasure he gave me. Time was fleeting before the sun would rise. But there was enough time to take time – to explore the depths of each other in every way before I had to leave.
He knew how to give pleasure. He was an expert – sliding down my shaft and pulling gently on my balls as he tasted my essence. I could see my golden precum on his lips. I was a fountain at the mercy of the Earth. He was in control, and I was his in every way.
Minutes slid by as I listened to the sound of him sucking my shaft. I slowly began to thrust inside his mouth and he shuddered as I took control – holding his head in place and gently feeding him inch by inch of my cock. His mouth spread widely as my shaft sunk into him. He gagged as I hit the back of his throat.
I had to be more careful. What was he into? What did he like? I needed, no I wanted to know everything., I How to please him the way he craved. Time… I needed more time.
I slowly pulled my shaft from his mouth, and it rested against his lips.
“I could worship that cock forever. Is there a temple I could leave an offering at?” he snickered.
“I’m going to leave an offering right now. Consider your prayers answered,” I laughed loudly. “Turn over.”
I wanted to taste him – the very essence of him.
I placed my hands against his globes and gently pried them apart. He had an exquisite ass, a thing of beauty that sculptures took decades to learn how to make. I ran my fingers over his crack. He was wet with slick. His body prepared itself for the natural order of the world. Alpha – Beta – Omega, and as a god… We were almost always Alpha. The fates always provided the correct mate. The natural order of the world rarely went sideways.
I bent down and pulled my legs off the bed and pressed my tongue against his hole. So tight and pink – so ready to be filled with me. He tasted so sweet – like inhaling the scent of a flower. It made my head spin with an intoxication I had never experienced before.
The mightiness of the bond. The touch and feel of your mate. The binding of two souls as they became one. Magic – the oldest magic in the universe. Love.
My tongue pressed slowly inside my mate, and he writhed under me – pressing his hole against my face forcefully. His hand reached around and wound itself in my hair, and he gently pressed me harder against him. My tongue flicked in and out, and my head swam with him.
I licked up his crack and tasted his slick, reveling in him and losing myself in his smell.
He moaned loudly, and I pressed my tongue as deeply as it would go. He was so tight.
I added a finger. Then two. With every digit, I stretched his hole for what we had to do.
“God… Please… Just… I want you. I don’t think I can breathe if you don’t…”
I pulled away and stared down at his face, which was contorted with passion. His needful glance strengthened my spine with my desire for him.
“You sure?”
“More than anything,” he sighed and stretched his body once again.
I crawled on top of him and pulled his legs over my shoulders. He scooted down and smiled at me.
“It feels so weird to love someone you just met.”
“But I think our souls have always known each other.”
“Gods have souls?”
“I hope so. Yes. I'm sure we do.”
“Then let our souls combine.”
I pressed my large head against his hole and ran it up and down his crack. My cock became wet with his slick – natures lubricant. I bent down and kissed his clavicle – licking up his chin until my lips met his. Our kiss was deeper than the oceans as I pressed my hard cock at his hole.
“God,” he moaned into me.
“Which god?” I laughed.
“There’s only you.”
I pressed forward and sunk into him slowly. I was thick, and he would need time to get used to my girth. He gasped as my cock spread him open. One inch – then two. I wiggled my hips, slowly pressing against his walls as my cock stretched him – preparing him for the one act all beings were created for.
I pressed myself in further. He was so wet – so hot like a furnace – so tight as his ass clenched around my godhood. Another inch.
“Oh, fuck…” He moaned loudly.
“Is it… Are you ok?”
“I have never felt so perfect – so whole in my entire life. I’m filled with… you.”
“Oh, you’re not filled yet. I’m… I mean, I'm barely in.” Another inch.
“I’m built for this, Hermes. I know it. I was made for you.”
I pushed another couple inches in, and he arched his back. “God, you feel so… perfect.”
“Perfect…” He threw his head to the side as he writhed. “You feel so… big and… God, it feels so good.”
Another inch.
“Please, just… Do it!” He reached up and grabbed me by the back of the head, wrapping his fingers in my hair. “Please…”
I pushed my pelvis forward and slowly sunk into his depths. He was so tight it felt like a vice around my shaft. A velvet tunnel that I could lose myself in. I moaned as I sunk deeper into him. My cock throbbed and my body shook. He writhed underneath me as I filled him with my godhood.
“Fuck… I…” He panted hard as I thrust myself fully into him. My pubes brushed up against his ass cheeks. I left myself there and rotated my hips. His groans told me the pleasure he was feeling.
This was more than I could have ever wished for myself. This feeling of completeness as I sat inside him was overwhelming. It blurred my realities and gave me a sense of meaning – something I had been lost adrift about for almost a thousand years.
I was whole. I was complete because I had found him.
I slowly pulled back and thrust into him again. Slowly at first, but then my pace quickened. I couldn’t control the passion that rocked through my body with the force of the first sun forming. It was changing everything – every thought – every moment was only for him.
“You’re so beautiful,” I watched him writhe underneath me as I started fucking him harder. The sounds of my hips against his cheeks were like cannon fire as I buried myself in him over and over. His moans spurred me on as his hands clawed at my back.
I reached down and grabbed his cock and stroked it rapidly. Minutes flew by in a flash as I stared at the man I loved. The man I barely knew, but also knew with every fiber of my being. Time – we had to have more time. I wanted to know everything about him.
He shot his load onto my fingers, and it splashed against his chest.
I buried myself deeply in him and grunted as I let loose with the force of a volcano inside him. My cock throbbed with the power as my seed splashed his insides. Spurt after spurt of golden liquid shot into him and leaked from his hole.
“That was… I can die now.” He grinned as our mouths found each other again. I left myself inside him, and he wiggled his hips against me. “One day… We will do that and have a child.”
“If the fates see fit, my love.”
“Don’t leave. I wish you could stay here like this forever.”
“I have to go soon. Night is beginning to fade. I have to get back.”
“Just a little while longer,” he pleaded.
“I don’t think I could say no to you if I had to.”
I held him as he fell asleep. I, too, wished I could stay here forever.
But I had to get back. The end of the world was coming.
