Stern Men Always Finish Last

Chapter 23

A/N:  <Brace Yourself - Smut Ahead>

Silas POV  

I was going to have Aggele with me the whole week. She was going to stay in my home and in my bed for 5 nights. This past family weekend had been at Nathan's and while the rest were mucking around by the pool, North and I had discussed his week. Aggele was becoming more brazen with touching us. Imaging her soft, tiny, deft fingers on the god of love was enough to have him standing at attention. I was no stranger to sex and a woman's body, but the idea of having Sang writing below me as I make her come is enough to send me over the edge.

My brothers and I have always know that she was beautiful, smart, and capable of far more than her family ever told her, but you can tell she still doesn't fully believe us. It's been growing, that sense of self-confidence, you can see it in her eye s and how she carries herself around us. Since Uncle instituted the demonstration of her skills at the end of the week, she's been more open with us. It's like every time she proves to us that she can keep up, she's proving it to herself. I'm not gay, but I could kiss the Doc for coming up with this plan. If it works like it should, we will get to keep Aggele for the rest of our lives and that's all I want.

I drove myself to school on Monday so that I could take Aggele to the aquarium as soon as we were done. Axel was set to meet us there and all I heard from him last week was that he had something special planned for Sang to blow us all away with. The Toma team had gone all out for Sang and even though they were still get favors from the Academy for this, I knew that the favors they received were nowhere near equivalent to the amount of effort they had put in. We were going to have to thank them properly for this.

As soon as school was over Aggele and I raced out to the car to head to the aquarium. "Aggele, you'll be fine with Axel this week. He says that he as something special planned for you. But, you call me if you need anything." I gave her a stern look at that last part. I wanted her to know that I was serious. I would come for her wherever she was, all she had to do was call.

"Superman, I know. Even if it's stubbed toe, I'll call." She giggled and my world was right again. I had forgotten that I told her I wanted her to call me for everything, even when she stubs her perfect little Gabriel painted toe. Fuck were he toes cute; just like the rest of her.

She was bouncing in her seat with excitement and I couldn't contain the smile. I just hope that whatever Axel had planned for her she would excel at. She didn't need to be perfect, no one expected her to be proficient in something with a week of training. Rather, we wanted her to be confident enough that if she chooses to pursue further training in something, she has a solid foundation to build on. Building things...I wonder if I could teach Aggele plumbing and woodworking. When she took out the cabinet at the diner with a sledgehammer, she was breathtakingly beautiful. Shocked the hell out of me, but I loved seeing the sense of pride an accomplishment on her angle face.

Axel was waiting by the welcome desk at the aquarium for us. The expansive lobby lead to a large atrium that had smaller hallways jetting off of it leading to other exhibits. The floors were always shiny despite the heavy foot traffic, the walls were painted in bright colors with graphics and factoids of the animals posted throughout. The celing in this area was mostly glass and the sun was shining through; catching Sang's golden hair and giving her an other worldly glow like the Greek goddess I knew she was. Athena, Aprodite, and all the others had nothing on Aggele mou.

Sang bounced over to Axel and he opened his arms wide for a hug which she readily returned. "Little bird, are you ready to play with the creatures of the sea?"
