Chapter 81
Aria’s POV
The cool air in the room felt like a balm to my skin as the intensity of everything began to fade, leaving me feeling soft and vulnerable. Dante Enzo, and Matteo didn’t immediately leave me to breathe on my own, though–they hovered around me, their hands gentle now, their eyes soft with a mixture of pride and something deeper I couldn’t quite place.
Dante’s fingers brushed the strands of hair
thick with satisfaction. “You were perfect foy from my face, his touch light

Matteo’s fingers ran down my spine slowly, soothing the tingling sensations leftover from everything that had just happened. “You’re incredible, you know that? We’ve wanted this, wanted you, for so long. And now…” He sighed, a small, content sound. “We can’t believe we finally have you.”
I felt my cheeks warm under their gazes, my body sore but completely satiated in a way I’d never experienced. I didn’t need to say anything they all knew the feelings swirling inside me–the gratitude, the surrender, the trust I’d given them and the way they had cared for me, even in the darkest parts of the night.
But then i had to ask, my voice soft and curious, asked the question that had been on my Don’t you-” i hesitated, my words trailing off when i saw the way they all looked at me.
and. “Don’t you want to release yourselves too?
Dante’s gaze darkened, and he shook his head, the edge of a grin playing on his lips. “When the time’s right, Aria. When you’re ready.” His fingers trailed over my skin once more, gentle but possessive. “For now, this…this is enough. Seeing you come undone, feeling your trust in us, that’s more than enough.”
Enzo placed a kiss on the top of my head, his voice soothing as he added, “It’s not about us right now. It’s about you, Aria. And we’re going to take care of you, make sure you’re okay. We’re not in a rush.”
I leaned into their touch, feeling the warmth of their affection wash over me, and let out a soft sigh. “Thank you… for everything.”
Their response was immediate. Dante’s lips brushed over mine, soft and lingering, before he pulled away and whispered, “Rest, sweetheart. Let- us take care of you now.”
The aftercare was slow, deliberate–soothing. They lifted me gently, helping me to stand, guiding me toward a nearby room where they had a warm bath waiting for me. The water was comforting, its warmth enveloping me like a blanket as I sank into the tub with a sigh.
Enzo and Matteo worked together, carefully removing the remnants of the night’s events, washing my skin tenderly. They didn’t rush, their hands gentle as they scrubbed away the marks of our intensity, their words low and comforting as they spoke to me. “You’re perfect,” Enzo said, his fingers massaging soothing balm into the whip marks on my back. “So strong, so beautiful.”
I sank deeper into the warm water, letting it envelop me, the hear my
aching body. Their hands followed the curve of my skin with
such care, like they were tracing every inch of me, making sure to ease the tension in my muscles. Dante’s hands were gentle but firm as he rubbed soothing balm over the whip marks on my back, his touch sending shivers through me, not from pain, but from the tenderness he was offering me. Enzo’s fingers trailed along my legs, caressing the sore spots and massaging the stress out of my limbs. Matteo’s presence was like a constant, grounding me, his hand resting lightly on my shoulder as if to remind me that I wasn’t alone, that they were all here with me.
They spoke in soft tones, words of reassurance, of praise, of how proud they were of me. Their voices were low, like a soft hum beneath the water’s surface, their words melting into my skin. “You did so well, sweetheart,” Enzo murmured, his fingers gently skimming over my arm. “You’re ours, and we’ll take care of you, always.”
