Bitter Sweet

Joxer mentally thanked every deity he knew for Ares impatience,
taking off clothes was part of the fun but when the clothes came
off the sweaty sex could start.

The two reappeared on the bed in a tangle of limbs. Ares hurriedly
flipped Joxer on top so they didn't squash the baby, something his
lover fully appreciated given the gleam in his eyes and the way he
claimed Ares lips. Ares couldn't help but moan at his lovers'
forwardness but he batted Joxers hands gently aside as he reached for
Ares cock. "Wait you turn." Ares murmured huskily enjoying the moment
of surprise in his lovers' eyes and the blush that covered his face.

Ares sat up slightly settling Joxer across his lap, enjoying the
other mans wriggles as impatience took over. His own cock was already
hard and wanting to pound into Joxer but he wanted take it slower, to
please Joxer. Mentally extending the bed all around he levered Joxer
downward onto his back and began kissing him gently. Joxer responded
enthusiastically, still trying to grope Ares every time he got the
chance. Ares grinned a wicked gleam coming to his eyes as he opened
them and stopped kissing Joxer long enough to murmur "You wouldn't
want me to tie you down would you?"

He felt slight surprise and a great stirring in his cock, as Joxer
appeared to consider it, blushing deeply as he did. Ares took
advantage of the moment and lay over of Joxer, making sure he didn't
lie directly on him. He began nipping Joxers earlobe enjoying the
soft moan it elicited, and slowly moved downwards to kiss his neck
softly, teasing it gently with the tip of his tongue. He kept his
eyes on Joxers face suppressing a smile as he lover moaned softly,
closing his eyes as he did. He moved downward to flick his tongue
across Joxers collar bone, he smirked again as he felt his lovers
cock twitching against his stomach, and moved slightly upwards so the
only part of him touching Joxer was his tongue. He almost laughed at
Joxers frustrated groan, and moved downwards across one nipple to the
other.

Joxer was all but mewing as Ares licked and nipped at his overly
sensitive nipples, it wasn't quite pain but it was almost there, it
felt too good to be stopped and he sighed in disappointment as Ares
moved on licking down his belly and blowing gently into his navel.

Ares grinned. He'd barely touched Joxer but his clenched fists and
closed eyes showed that the man was enjoying himself. He blew again
into Joxers belly button and slowly with an extremely light touch,
ran two fingers down his ribs to his rounded belly. He grinned again
as Joxer took in a deep breath, his body slightly arching off the
bed. He kissed the small round bulge of their baby as he repeated the
finger strokes knowing that she was the cause for Joxers sensitivity.
For a brief moment he regretted not seeing it before but the moment
passed and he resolved to make up for it in bulk.

He trailed his fingertips over Joxers hips, taking the time to admire
the other mans beauty. He wasn't sure why he hadn't seen it long
before, taken the time?He shook himself mentally and with a wicked
grin, moved down lower, running his fingers gently over Joxers hips
and, avoiding his cock completely, along the top of his legs and up
in between them.

Joxer moaned in frustration, not wanting the sensations to stop but
desperately wanting to touch Ares and have him touch him properly.
The thrust his hips up very slightly and tried to pout but Ares only
grinned and traced the path his fingers had took with his tongue.
Ares could feel Joxers frustration but he knew it would be worth it.
Softy he flicked his tongue over the end of Joxers penis, feeling his
own cock pulsing at his lovers' cry. Softly he traced his tongue up
and down Joxers penis, from top to bottom and the around the end. He
blew gently on the tip before taking Joxers cock into his mouth.

Joxer mentally screamed `finally' as he felt Ares mouth descending,
not realising he scared half the pantheon almost into an early grave.
He tried hard not to thrust in frustration as Ares took his time
taking him in and drawing him out. Ares smirked around Joxers cock,
having heard his mental cry; carefully his hands massaged Joxers
balls, not enough to take him to orgasm but enough to take him to the
edge. Ares smirked again, now came the truly evil part. Ignoring
Joxers frustrated groan and his hands slamming into the bed, Ares
slowly let go of his cock. Using a small amount of godly power and
his hands he rolled Joxer over on to his back, ignoring the softly
muttered threats.

Swiftly he moved up Joxers body, straddling his back, and licked the
back of Joxers ear, ignoring the more colourful mental threats.
Slowly he teased his hands down Joxers body massaging his shoulders
and back.

Courtesy of the babys link between them he could feel Joxers growing
frustration and knew of the slight stinging pleasure that came
whenever his sensitive nipples and cock brushed the bedspread, hence
why he continued the massage allowing Joxer to wriggle beneath him.

Joxers responses and threats were getting the war god more and more
turned on and he wasn't sure how much longer he could continue
teasing his lover. His hands softly began massaging Joxers buttocks,
becoming firmer as Joxer wriggled. Joxer was trying subtly to lever
himself up, which gave Ares not only a nice view but also an
incentive to get onto the sex. Pulling back a bit Ares licked up the
inside of Joxers legs, one at a time, before tracing the outline and
crack of his buttocks with his tongue. Parting Joxers cheeks He
slowly traced his tongue down to rest on Joxers opening. At Joxers
sharp intake of breath he licked gently at it, tracing around and
over as he lover wriggled beneath him.

Had Joxer realised how, he would have tried to lube himself up ready
and willing for Ares, Ares was glad his lover was wearing the power
restricting bracelet. With a thought he coated his fingers and cock,
and briefly drawing back from Joxer, slowly worked his finger in. He
was slightly surprised when his frustrated lover made a complex
manoeuvre of wriggles to force Ares finger in further.

Ares ginned and slowly moved his finger in and out, rotating it
around a little as he prepared Joxer. As Joxers moans increased and
his body relaxed, Ares added another finger working them together,
brushing them gently over Joxers prostate. As he withdrew them he
heard Joxers groans and slowly pulled him up onto all fours as he
slid in, his lover completely relaxed.

Joan moaned as soon as he felt Ares entering him, he relaxed as much
as could allowing Ares to slide completely in before he started to
thrust back against him. He felt Ares surprise and smiled as he
wriggled again.

It was Ares turn to suppress a moan as he felt his lovers inspired
movements. He forced himself sternly to stop before sliding slowly
out and thrusting hard back inside Joxer. Joxer gasped slightly at
the change but Ares had a firm grip on his hips so he didn't loose
his balance. Joxer pushed back eagerly as Ares began thrusting into
him, almost stabbing at Joxers prostate. After the long lick and
tease session he knew he couldn't hold on for long and hearing Joxers
pants he reached under Joxers belly and began stroking his cock as he
thrust in.

He felt Joxer clenching hard at his cock as he thrust, building up a
furious rhythm; he milked his lovers cock as they came together. Ares
thrusts died down to slow gentle moves as they slowly wound down.
Panting the two stayed in position for a minute before Ares, still
inside Joxer rolled them down onto the bed. With a thought Ares
guilty cleared up the wet patch he'd rolled Joxer onto and cuddled
against his back, one hand possessively resting on the baby-bulge. As
their breathing returned too normal Ares murmured drowsily "I'm
hearing you loud and clear Joxer" as he caught his lovers thought. He
cuddled up deeper "And I do too." He murmured resting his head
against Joxers back and withdrawing gently from him.

Joxer lay tiredly in Ares arms, he was enjoying just doing nothing so
much he nearly missed Ares words *Have you thought of any names yet?*
Ares asked mentally, caressing Joxers bump, he was too tired to talk
and he wanted to see how Joxer would react. He had done little to no
lessons on mental communication.

Joxer didn't even click, it took him a second to work out what Ares
meant before he answered *A few* he admitted *When I found out she
was a girl* He snuggled into Ares grip *How about Atlantis?*

Ares tried not to laugh *A bit of a sore point* he answered.

Joxer frowned *Okay then, tell me yours.* he said, calmly planning to
veto half if not all of them, his lover had great taste in clothes
but he'd already been warned his taste in names left much to be
desired. Hence Aphrodite had named most of theirs.

Ares thought for a minute, he hadn't considered it and those he had
considered had been boys' name. Considering most of the symbols were
male he'd assumed his and Joxers child would be.

*Kineta?* he suggested gaining a mental snort from Joxer.

*She's hardly active, dreams too much.*

*Kaethe?*

*You got that from your sister and she's using it.* Joxer tried not
to laugh.

*Evanthe? Isaura?*

*Maybe Isaura?* Joxer sounded unsure

Ares sighed mentally *Electra?*

*All in leather, complete with a whip and need to hurt men*

Ares sighed thinking for a moment; he looked at his lover. He could
sense something at the back of his mind that Joxer was unsure to
voice *I'm all out, why don't you try?* he coaxed.

Joxer hesitated "I like Leonie." He spoke softly "It means lioness.
But there's lots of good names out there, not just the old fashioned
ones, newer ones, I mean we could even think some up." he continued
quickly.

Ares shuffled Joxer around so they faced each other, he could see the
hope on his lovers face "I like Leonie." He answered "It's a good
name." He looked at Joxer who flushed slightly "Who was she?"

Joxer flushed a little deeper caressing his bulge slightly "My
grandmother" he answered softly "I only remember bits about her. She
died when I was seven, but I always remember how much she tried to
protect my brothers and me and look out for us. She tried to keep us
together and she had a lot of ideas." he said shyly.

Ares smiled resting his hand on Joxer stomach slightly "Maybe you can
tell the baby about her namesake." He spoke quietly smiling more as
he saw the joy in Joxers eyes. Joxer laid his hands ontop of Aress'
feeling the baby moving and kicking slightly beneath them. It was the
perfect moment until both of them winced and the baby kicked hard.

Ares glanced up, out of habit and rubbed his head "Guess the storms
over." He said his eyes unfocusing slightly. He sighed "Aphrodite's
in labour, the surges pushed her over the edge." He looked at Joxer
uncertainly who smiled. "Go and see them." He said simply.

He still felt a little uneasy with the situation but after everything
that had happened he knew Ares wouldn't abandon them, he just wanted
to see his youngest son born. He sat up slightly and smiled
again "Besides Strife's waiting outside with Cupid, they were staying
with Aphrodite?" he cocked his head to one side and grinned
mischievously "Apparently Aphrodite's not in the best mood and she's
thrown them out."

Ares looked more then a little worried and slightly green so Joxer
gave him a small shove "Go, you don't want to miss this. "

Ares nodded sighing, then a thought occurred to him and an evil grin
spread over his face, he smirked at Joxer "I'll take Aphrodite any
day over the company we're going to get." He smirked again at Joxers
look "Did I forget to mention it? Cupids going to pick up dear dads
demi-hero's and their friends." He ran a hand through his
hair "Aphrodite in labour or the preachy-ness of them," he mused,
smirked and disappeared leaving Joxer to find his clothes and go
after Strife.

He felt like some light conversation before all Tartarus broke loose.
