The winter solstice came quickly. On December twentieth, Alex and his four ladies went to his grandparents' house for the celebration. The weather wasn't cooperating, and they expected few other family members. It was also mid-week, and many would have to stay in hotels, which would further reduce attendance. Alex liked the idea of a smaller group. For the first time in his experience, the women only outnumbered the men by about two to one, which would work out well with his new hope for using the elixir of vitality.
The proceedings began as usual with the 'royal' family in front of the group. Alex was in the middle, his mother and Ariana seated on his right. Demi and Alexandra, his E'mamas, were seated on the left. Aphrodite stood and faced the family then dropped her robe. Seeing his mother do that, gave Alex an instant erection every time.
"Welcome to the winter solstice celebration. You might have noticed that Xander isn't with us. He's gone to Greece to act as Papas for our family there. The weather hasn't favored us for this celebration, and there aren't many of us here, but I'm sure we'll have a great time. The only big event we have planned is the fertilization rite with Mamas Ariana tomorrow afternoon. We'll do that after the feast."
"Mamas, what's with the hair?" Danae asked.
"That was a gift from Gaia. It wasn't something any of us chose. For now, that's about all I can say about it."
Aphrodite walked to Alex and knelt. She pulled up his robe to reveal his cock, then leaned forward and kissed the head. She stood, then took her seat, with her legs spread. Ariana stood and dropped her robe then knelt in front of her brother.
"Papas, may I have your treasure?" she asked.
"I would be honored," Alex replied.
His sister took his cock in her mouth and began sucking him as she caressed his balls. Alex lovingly ran his fingers through her hair as he watched her. As he neared his climax, his sister went deeper, and as soon as he filled her mouth, she let the cum spill from it into the cup her mother was holding. Ariana came seconds later. A sudden breeze came through the room causing everyone but Ariana to look around for its source.
"Thank you, Papas," she said, then stood and returned to her seat.
Demi stood next, dropping her robe, and kneeling before her brother. "Papas," she said. She also took his cock in her mouth, then stood and knelt in front of her mother. "Mamas," she said, then licked from the bottom of the labia to her clit and kissed her mons. Aphrodite grinned at her, then shook her head smiling. Demi moved to her sister and repeated the same thing, then after dipping her finger into the cum, returned to her chair.
Alexandra stood, and repeated the steps with Alex, Aphrodite, and Ariana, then returned to her seat. Aphrodite offered the cup to Ariana who dipped her finger in it then dipped her own. All four women touched their fingers to their tongues. They all came moments later, and the breeze was felt again. The group began snapping their fingers until all four had recovered.
The remainder of the family went through their customary greetings in a similar manner but kissed the mons of all four women rather than lick. Danae and Selene were the exceptions, they took Alex into their mouths before moving on, and licking, then kissing the pussies of the women. Astrae, to the surprise of both Alex and Aphrodite, kissed both. Every woman in the group dipped a finger into the cum before returning to their seats. Cletus also dipped his finger. When the greetings were complete, Aphrodite nodded to the group and the women touched the cum to their tongues. In a few seconds, the group of women came at the same time.
Aphrodite stood to address the group. "Papas, Mamas Ariana, and I, have discussed a couple of items that we'd like your opinions on. The first is our customary opening greeting. There's nothing in any of the texts that require the kneeling and kissing of the genitals. I'd like your opinions on possibly changing that to something, well...a more traditional greeting."
There was immediate stirring in the room.
"Why would we want to change that?" Phoebe asked. "It's our way of showing respect to Mamas, E'mamas, and Papas."
The rest of the group seemed to agree.
Hera stood. "Mamas, the traditions we follow have been done the way we do them for probably more years than all our ages combined. I, for one, enjoy that particular tradition. I say we leave it as is."
Everyone murmured in agreement.
"Thank you for your input. We'll continue it then. Papas would like to discuss our second item?"
She sat back in her seat and Alex stood. "I met with most of the men at the equinox and told them that I had no plans on changing our traditions. We give the men the elixir of vitality only on the second day of our celebrations. As you know, that's the one that enhances their abilities. I noticed that by about eight, on our first night, all the men are spent, and only the women are continuing with each other. The men are all sitting around. I'd like to hear your thoughts on making the elixir available on the first night too. It could be optional. No one would be required to take it. Can we get your input on that idea?" Alex asked.
Everyone seemed to approve.
Aphrodite stood again. "Can I get a show of hands from those who would like to make that change?" Every hand went up. "Those opposed." No one raised their hand. "I'd say that's an approval. We'll put the elixir on the dining room table for those of you interested. Let's break for dinner and let the celebration begin."
Aphrodite went to Demi and Alexandra. "I'm not complaining, but what's up with the licks rather than just the kiss?"
Both grinned at her. "We thought it would be a fun thing to do. Hopefully, it'll catch on," Alexandra said.
"With a big group, we'll all be cumming from getting licked that many times," Aphrodite replied.
"And the downside of that is what?" Demi asked, smiling.
A few minutes later, Astrae came to Alex. "You looked surprised when I greeted you today," she said.
"I was. I thought you were limiting yourself to Jason."
"Jason wasn't particularly good about limiting himself to me. I dumped him."
"Our family isn't much for limitations within itself."
"I knew that and had no problem with it. Jason isn't limiting himself to family. He's screwing everyone that'll have him. I've decided to keep mine in the family."
"Me too," Alex replied.
"Does that include me?" Astrae asked.
"You're family."
"Tonight, or tomorrow, maybe?"
"We can do that," Alex replied.
Astrae kissed him and left. Alex watched her walk away. "Nice ass," he thought.
When Alex finished dinner, he decided to mingle. People had already paired up to the extent that walking through the room took some careful navigation. His mother, who was a hot commodity amongst the women, was on the couch, being eaten and eating her sister. Ariana was riding the face of Selene, while Nicholas, Cathy's father, screwed Selene. Demi was being eaten by Cathy with his aunt Hera coaching her. Alexandria and Cathy's mother, Cora, were eating each other. There were naked people everywhere. Tamara and Maeve were sitting together next to Alexandra and Cora watching. Alex walked up behind them and put a hand on each of their shoulders.
"I understand congratulations are in order to both of you," he said.
Both looked at him with surprised looks. "How could you know that? We just got the tests today," Maeve asked.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," he replied, smiling.
"Try us," Tamara said.
"Gaia told me."
"You're right. We don't believe you. Thank you for helping us," Maeve said.
"I'm really glad I could. When are you due?"
