"We're here."

 

Orion pointed out the steamy spring to his two companions. Nico, youngest and smallest of the three, squinted against the afternoon sun. Damien, oldest of the three, jabbed Nico with his elbow, nearly knocking the poor boy over.

 

"And there's the grotto where you're gonna become a man," Damien teased. "Ready to get some sexy naiad action, recruit?"

 

"Knock it off Damien," Orion scolded. "He's already a man, or he wouldn't be doing this stunt. You know he's shy about this."

 

Nico spoke up. "Um, do you really think she'll be okay with this?"

 

"She's a nymph, she's probably sitting in her cave as we speak thinking about dicks or whatever," Damien shot back.

 

"Nesaia's the sacred guardian of this spring. It's disrespectful to talk about her like that, and dangerous to do it within earshot of her." Orion scolded Damien again. "But she is a nymph, and nymphs are especially promiscuous fey. I know doing something this... douchey, " he said, shooting Damien a look, "is pretty foreign to you, but frankly I'm more worried about what she'll do to you. We'll be outside the grotto in case things get weird."

 

"Okay, thanks... I uh, mean it," Nico said with a blush.

 

The three continued in quiet until they reached the edge of the spring. It was shallow. The clear, hot water barely came up to the waist at the apparent center. On the other side from where the three stood was a small entrance into the grotto, bordered on either side by braziers, set against a hillside, into which the spring continued.

 

Nico removed his clothes as his initiation ritual demanded, as the other two turned to look away and make camp. He removed his flint and steel from his bag, and waded through the spring to the grotto entrance.

 

Orion turned to look when he heard the splash from Nico entering the water, then immediately turned back, embarrassed. Damien hadn't noticed anything, thank the gods. This wasn't the first time he'd looked at Nico like that, but he didn't need Damien making a big deal of it. Orion preferred preferred women, but something about the Nico stirred something in him that he couldn't excuse away. Nico was definitely a man, and Orion wanted him. He pushed the thought down and concentrated on making camp.

 

Nico reached the grotto entrance, then fiddled with the flint and steel and lit both braziers, offering a small prayer and setting the implement down on a rock when finished. He looked back at the others, then proceeded in. He noticed an instant change in atmosphere. It wasn't just the dark; the stone walls also muted the noise coming in from outside. It was far from quiet though, as the splashing of the water that followed his every step as he waded deeper in danced and reverberated off the stone walls in a symphony. The light, both from the setting sun and from the braziers, streamed in through the grotto's entrance, playing off of the clear water and crystalline walls.

 

Suddenly, several other braziers lining the walls flickered to life, casting their own warm light against the many reflective surfaces and lighting the entire space. Nico heard a soft giggle bounce around the grotto, and he looked to his right. The nymph, Nesaia, rose from the slab of crystal she'd been seated on and slowly strode toward him. She was gorgeous. Her pale, gray-blue skin bore swirling blue patterns, fractaling and spiraling down her extremities as they entwined with the gentle fire light reflected off the cave walls. Her hair was a deep sapphire, as were the parts of her body one might expect to be darker in color. Her eyes were a piercing icy white-blue, with flecks and streaks of brilliant sapphire dotting her otherwise pale irises. The nymph approached him, then placed a finger to his chest and let it trail as she walked to his side, placing him between her and the entrance.

 

"I- uhh- I mean- Um-" Nico stammered, too awestruck to verbalize anything. Nesaia placed her finger to his lip, then replaced it with a gentle kiss. Nico immediately turned red as she pulled away, and his attempts at verbal communication dissolved entirely. Nesaia peeked around him to observe the two men who'd accompanied him, then looked back at Nico. She seemed to put something together mentally and rolled her eyes, then crashed her lips against his more forcefully. Nico closed his eyes and leaned back, accepting the nymph's advance, and then... felt her step forward, into him.

 

His eyes shot open to confirm what he felt. There was nothing of her presence but wisps of white mist where she had been. Then he felt it.

 

His arousal doubled, doubled, and doubled again. Desire, lust, need surged within him, so strong that his legs gave and he fell to his hands and knees. Nesaia was in him, and not in the way he'd imagined Orion being befor- he cut that thought off, but like a hydra's head it spawned more thoughts in its place. Fantasies of him and his friend swirled in his head, giving direction to the firestorm of want that surged across his body. He heard himself let out a loud noise, like a chimera of moaning and crying and screaming, and then arched his back as the need surged through him again.

 

Orion heard the sound of Nico's distress come from the grotto. He dropped what he was doing and sprang to his feet, running along the side of the spring to the grotto's entrance, with Damien half-heartedly following after.  When he reached the braziers, he saw Nico on his hands and knees doubled over in agony. When Nico turned to face him, Orion realized with a blush that his misery wasn't born of pain. Nico gazed longingly into Orion's eyes, his own eyes turned icy with flecks of blue and warped into an expression of all-consuming need.

 

Damien caught up and took one look at Nico. "Nope, I want no part of whatever the fuck this is," he said, and he darted back to the camp. Nico's eyes fluttered, then a hand lifted and waved up in an arcane gesture. Orion heard Damien fall to the ground. He turned back, but was cut off from saying anything by "Nico's" dreamy reassurance.

 

"...he is.. sleeping..."

 

Nico's eyes fluttered again and returned to their state of desperate need. Damien could wait.

 

"Nico are you okay? You're acting strange," Orion said. He had a feeling about where this was heading, and his feelings on the matter were very mixed.

 

"I- I want you, Orion... please, I want... can- please let me suck your cock!" begged Nico, desperation seeming to build until the words tumbled out seemingly of their own volition. Orion wanted this too, wanted Nico, to take him, to fuck him, but how could he know whether this was Nico begging him so desperately, or Nesaia? And how would it be right for Orion to use Nico's body like that if Nico wasn't the one driving. Instinct began to overtake reason, however, and he weakly nodded at Nico before his brain even registered it. Nico hastily undid Orion's pants and slid his cock between his lips, moaning as he did. Orion shuddered at the sensation. It felt incredible.

 

Nico began to eagerly bob up and down on Orion's shaft. It tasted better than he'd expected, not that he had any experience with the subject. He was grateful for the nymph hijacking his body like this. It was nearly impossible to tell where her control ended and his began, but Nesaia provided the technique to satisfy their shared need. And gods, he needed this. He'd needed it before Nesaia possessed him, and he needed it a thousand times more after.

 

He felt Orion place a hand at the back of his head, running a finger through his hair. Orion's breathing was picking up rapidly, and quiet moans were starting to escape his lips, lighting a fire in Nico's belly. He doubled his efforts and started working bit by bit toward the base of his cock. Nico was moaning too, savoring every moment and every sensation.

 

Nico felt the prelude to an orgasm from his lover, and went for broke, diving all the way down to the base. Orion came, leaning against Nico as he filled Nico's mouth. When the orgasm began to settle, Nico slowly pulled himself off the cock he'd been choking on, and lost in the heat of the moment, he swallowed. It felt amazing, but it wasn't enough. It only made him needier, and he realized what he was needy for. He turned around and dropped down to his hands and knees, pressing his ass against Orion's member. It was still hard.

 

Nico begged for the thing that would truly satisfy his desire, though he was still too shy to get it all out. "Please... I need you in here..."

 

Orion seemed to catch his breath, looking as though he was torn in two. After a moment, he spoke, "I need to know... Do you want this, or does Nesaia want this?"

 

Nico knew he wanted it and tried desperately to force the words out, but they wouldn't come. Then he felt Nesaia exit his body, appearing in the spring on her back, looking at him expectantly. Orion seemed surprised.

 

Nico finally mustered the courage he needed. "I want this. I've wanted it for a long time, actually... And I can tell you want it too, so please..." he slid back and rubbed his ass up and down Orion's shaft.  "Please fuck me!"

 

Orion seemed to find that answer acceptable, and he slid his cock inside. Nico gasped. It felt so much bigger in his ass than it did in his mouth. Nico thanked the gods Nesaia had the foresight to give Orion a sloppy blowjob too, because he realized that would have felt much worse otherwise.

 

Orion started moving, he found Nico's weak spot almost immediately. He gasped and lost his balance, falling on top of Nesaia. Orion followed him down and laid atop him, sliding back in and eliciting a desperate moan. Nesaia chuckled and took the opportunity to slid Nico inside her.

 

Right, that's what I was here for, Nico thought to himself, and that would be the last coherent thought Nico would have that night.

 

The raw sensation from both ends was too much, and Nico melted.

 

Nesaia let the two men fuck like that until they couldn't anymore. It was admittedly not as good for her as it was for either of them, but that was okay; she was after something else.

 

Nico passed out nearly the moment Orion slid out of him, and Orion looked not far behind. She carried Nico in her arms and led Orion out of the grotto and back to their campsite, where Orion took Nico into his arms and into his bedroll. Nesaia pulled the blanket over the two of them, and Orion managed to mumble a "thank you..." before sleep came for him too.

 

She picked a nice rock to sit on and admired the two, asleep and basking in the afterglow in the light of their campfire. She decided to guard them until morning. She wouldn't let anything happen to such a cute couple.
