Ceremonial Duties (Eris Vanserra x Reader)

Summary// Annona is the celebration of Autumn and the harvest, reaping the benefits of Spring’s blessings while also giving back to the Mother and nature in hopes of another successful year. You had attended these parties before, enjoying the wildness and energy that was created but never going too deep into the rituals. However, as the new High Lord of Autumn’s mate, certain ceremonial duties were now yours to perform.

(The first of probably many fics of Predator!Eris is here. With tonight being the first day of fall, I only felt it right to write about him much like how Calanmai affected Tamlin. This will be rough, dirty, and primal. Annona is the roman goddess of the harvest and her name sounded perfect for this! I wrote this in like two hours and I hope you guys like it cause I don't know how I feel about it lol, I hope I did him justice)

WARNINGS: 18+, primal play, rough sex, dirty talk, bondage, marking, biting, bruising, hair pulling, multiple orgasms, overstimulation, spanking

You hadn’t seen your mate since this morning, the two of you having to be separated to follow the old customs down to the letter. It was Annona, the celebration of the coming of Autumn and blessings of the harvest, and you had no idea just how much went into the ceremony side of things.

Eris had ruled this court for the last year and thrown out most of the old ways. He claimed them to be outdated and unfair but for some reason chose to keep this. You assumed it was to not mess with the old magic that still whispered and flowed throughout the land, knowing that despite everything the Mother and nature would always collect their take in the end.

It was why there were so many priestesses running around like chickens with their heads cut off, fretting over every detail as the sun started to descend in the sky slowly. You were in your shared bedroom while three of them bathed you with special soaps and salts, scrubbing every part of your body until it was practically raw.

They would whisper prayers as they worked diligently, taking great care of you as if you were a newborn babe. You had so many questions about what exactly tonight entailed if this much work went into it but you didn’t want to disrupt their rhythm.

Last night Eris had tried to give you as much knowledge as he could, recalling what his mother went through during this time of year. He compared it to the night of Calanmai in the Spring Court, where the High Lord would change inexplicably to give magic back to the Earth and spread it throughout the land to encourage bountiful harvest and feed the magic.

He had pulled you close to his chest and whispered to you how the Maiden, which is either the mate of the High Lord or, if unmated, a random fae, would be presented to the entire court surrounded by fire and in a ceremonial gown. Eris recalled how he watched as his father stepped through a grove of trees and when a horn sounded out, the fire would go out and he would chase his mother through the trees and deeper into the forest.

You had turned to look up at him as he looked up, taking a deep breath before explaining that when the Maiden was finally caught, the fires around the ceremony would light up once more and that is when everyone else could join in on the fun. Some would have their own chases, others would drink, but it was a night where most every fae gave into their primal instincts.

One of the priestesses tapped your shoulder and you blinked a few times to bring yourself back to the present, stepping out of the tub gingerly as they dried your body and hair. They led you back into the bedroom where you saw your dress, laying neatly out for you to adorn.

“Wow…” You whispered while running your hands down the seams. It was a deep shade of red, darker than blood, and had two clasps of emerald branches between the bottom of your breasts and the top of your stomach. The gown left very little to the imagination as the top barely covered your boobs, as well as leaving your sides exposed and two long slits on either side of your legs.

“Is this the one the Maiden always wears?” You ask one of the girls, still mesmerized by the fabric as she shook her head.

“No, it is made each year anew as they tend to get torn or shredded after the night's events.” She explained smoothly as your cheeks heated up at the innuendo. “Is it to your liking?”

You nodded enthusiastically, turning to look out the window just as the sun gave out its last rays of light. The fires by the forest were already being lit and you could feel the beat of the music as if it were your own pulse.

But you still couldn’t shake the nerves that had been plaguing you since last night. Eris had told you that he would not be himself and while your sex life was already plenty spicy and exciting, tonight would be a whole new level.

A level you didn’t know if you could handle.

Two of the girls went to fetch their combs and tools while the third one turned you to face her, reaching for the dress before stopping midstep. “Are you alright, my lady?” She asked softly, eyebrows knitted in concern.

“I’ve never done something like this before.” You began, the confession of fear spilling out before you could think. “I do not know what to expect, what to do. I must go before my people and my mate…but what if I do something wrong?”

She smiled and stroked your arm like a mother would do to a frightened child, tilting your face so that you were eye to eye. You had no idea if it was her or whatever magic that priestesses held but a calmness went through you immediately, your shoulders dropping in ease.

“It is natural for you to feel this way, my lady.” She stated while reaching for the dress once more and helping you step in. You noted in the back of your mind that you were given no underwear or bra. “You could not do anything wrong tonight. The Mother fated you as mates and she knows what you can do, what you can give.”

The fabric was silky and cool against your skin, complementing your features wonderfully. The other ladies returned and began to fix your hair and makeup, painting your lips as red as your dress and placing a crown around your head that you had never seen before.

Once you were ready, they all stepped back so you could admire yourself in the mirror, shocked at the woman staring back. You looked ethereal, and as the night drew closer, you could feel that magic starting to buzz underneath your skin.

The priestess from before raised her head in pride as she watched you start to take the first steps into your role for the night, whispering a blessing and prayer before stepping behind you to fix your crown.

You watched her in the mirror and smiled when she grasped your shoulder. “Follow your instincts, High Lady.”

A path was cleared before you as you stepped into the forest, leaves crunching underneath your bare feet. The drums had started to beat their heavy toll while a chorus of angelic voices hummed to the same tune, the two contrasting beautifully.

It was the song of the Fox and the Maiden.

You could feel the eyes of everyone watching you while you made your way to a large stage that was surrounded by flames and branches. The platform had runes painted all over it, most of which you couldn’t make out, but somehow knew they were for you. The music grew louder as a priestess helped you up, your dress flowing behind you gracefully as you took your place in the center.

It was here that you could finally take in everything and everyone. Your nerves were still high as you saw familiar faces mixed with strangers, all of them whispering about you while the priestesses began to start their ritual. You glanced up into the night sky, some of the trees blocking your view, and breathed deep.

This was it. This was your first Annona and there was no turning back.

The wind picked up as their chanting increased with the drums and voices, fire whipping around you in response to their calls to blessings from the Mother. You began to feel that buzzing again only this time it started in your feet, slowly rising through your veins in the most intoxicating way.

You compared it to the feeling of wine finally lowering your inhibitions, the runes below you glowing as you felt wave after wave of calmness and pleasure rush through you. It had you closing your eyes and biting down on your lip to contain the moans that wanted to spill out, your mind forgetting where you were.

Suddenly their chanting and the voices stopped, the wind coming to a halt though the drums continued. You felt that tranquility vanish as everyone turned to look at the clearing of trees, two columns of fire suddenly bursting to life as a large creature stood in between them.

No, not a creature. A man. Your mate.

“Eris.” You breathed, voice tight as he stared at you with hunger you had never seen. He was bare, and his muscles taunt as if he were about to take off after something. You noticed he had on a crown similar to yours though his went down to his face and was shaped more like a fox.

His fists were clenched by his side and you took a step back without realizing it, fear taking over as you tried to control your breathing. The fires around you went out and you heard a voice whisper in your head, as soft as velvet.

Run.

You had no hesitation as you turned your back on him and booked it through the first row of trees, a loud horn echoing all around you as well as cheers from your fellow court members.

Adrenaline was controlling your body as you follow your instincts, weaving in and out while the sound of heavy footsteps was not far behind. It was exactly like he had described. You felt like you were at your most primal form…which was prey.

Eris’s grunts had you sweating in fear and excitement as you rounded a bend and leaped over a stream, sliding underneath a trunk as you tried to catch your breath. You knew he was close, could feel the bond as he searched for you, and as you peeked out from your hiding spot, you caught his eyes.

The pupils were so wide that you could barely see any amber, a thrill running down your spine as he lunged for you but you dodged. You began your trek once more until a large hand wrapped around your throat and pulled you backward, crying out when you hit the hard bark of a tree.

You felt the wind knock out of your lungs as you scratched and clawed at the hand, your heart fluttering as your mate growled. He licked his lips, his red hair sticking to his forehead as he bent down to your neck and inhaled your scent.

“Got you.” Eris snarled, tilting his head to take you all in.

Without warning, he grasped the front of your dress and ripped it off with ease, his cock already hard and dripping. You felt the air caress your skin as you continued to struggle despite the fact you were practically dripping for him.

“Let me go.” You gasped as he lined himself with your entrance, not even acknowledging your words as he thrust his entire length into you at once. “Fuck!”

Eris moved his hand from your throat to your hips, keeping a bruising hold as he fucked you like an animal. You felt the magic between the two of you combine as everything became heightened, your cunt squeezing him in just the right way as he grunted and groaned into your neck.

A sharp, burning pain lit up your shoulder as he bit down, blood dripping down your chest as he roared and spilled his seed inside you. The mixture of pain and pleasure had you following just behind him, your nails digging into his neck as you cried out his name.

He suddenly dropped you without warning and you hit the soft ground with a thud, that urge to run rising quickly as you started to scurry away. You didn’t make it far before Eris grabbed a fistful of your hair, pulling you up to your knees so that you were staring up at him.

“I’m not done with you yet, mouse.” He taunted while tugging at his dick, both of your juices glistening as he pushed it forcefully against your mouth. You moaned as you opened for him, almost gagging when he shoved it all the way back and held you there.

“So, fuck-” Eris growled as you choked around him, your eyes watering as you struggled to breathe. “Good.”

As he pulled away your hands hit the dirt underneath you, drool and spit covering your mouth and chin before you looked back up at him. You could feel the need for him burning your core, your clit throbbing as he yanked you up to him.

The urge to run was dying down inside of you while the urge to mate, to fuck, was rising. Why were you running from him? He was what you needed, what you craved. He owned you and you wanted him to.

Eris, through his haze, noticed the switch in you which only made this animalistic side of him grow. A prey accepting their fate was natural, instinctual, and he needed more.

You didn’t push him away as he pulled your lips to his, his teeth immediately capturing your lower lip and drawing blood once more. His cock was rutting into your thigh and you took it in your hand, stroking him as he moved from your mouth to your neck.

“You’re mine.” He claimed while sucking on your pulse point, feeling his balls tighten as you drew him closer to his release. You grunted when he suddenly shoved you back onto your knees, pinching your cheeks together until you opened your mouth so he could shove himself back inside.

The taste of his cock was intoxicating as he thrust in and out, your own hand falling between your thighs to make quick work of your clit. Eris threw his head back and roared as his cum spurted out and into your throat, the trees themselves shaking at the ferocity as you took everything he gave you.

After a moment he pulled out, slapping it on your tongue a few times, before noticing what you were doing. Both of your legs were swiftly wrapped in fire and yanked out from underneath you, spreading you open as Eris went straight for your cunt.

“Eris, fuck, please!” You screamed as he lapped at your juices, his tongue dipping inside your hole to collect your mixture while keeping your legs bound and spread. The fire didn’t burn but it was tight and when he let his teeth graze and nibble your clit, another orgasm crashed through you like a shooting star.

Your back arched completely off the ground as he drank it down, his own cock stirring back to life as the magic of the night drowned out everything else. It was a few seconds later you felt yourself starting to become overstimulated, his lips still wrapped around your clit.

However when you went to push him away those same bonds that held your legs now wrapped around your wrists, pinning them to the forest floor as a ring of fire surrounded the two of you.

“I can’t, Eris. It’s too much!” You pleaded while he ignored your cries, two of his fingers entering you without warning which had you sobbing in pain and pleasure. “Eris!”

He removed himself from your sex just long enough to bite down harshly on your inner thigh, his canines puncturing the skin as he growled out a warning, “You’re going to take what I fucking give you.” Before going right back down to devour you.

Your third orgasm of the night began to make its way forward, your pussy clenching around his fingers as Eris watched you with a feral grin. Those fingers suddenly curled inside you, hitting that spot, and you came and came and came. Your voice was raw from the screams of pleasure you were letting out, soaking his face and chest with your wetness as the fire around you rose to new heights.

Eris removed himself and his hand from your cunt, licking his fingers clean as you gasped for air and sanity. Your mind was no more than a puddle at this point and when he flipped you over and put your ass in the air, you followed his lead blindly.

“Not yet. Not done yet.” He stated while staring at your ass, grabbing it with his hands before slapping it to watch it bounce. Your face was pressed into the ground as you moaned out, your mouth hanging open as he lined himself up with your pussy.

This position had his cock going much deeper, brushing against your cervix with each thrust as you took it like the good mate you were. Your eyes were blurry as you looked around, the fire dancing in your vision as Eris bred you like a whore.

Small moans and pants were all the noises you could make though they were drowned out by his own grunts. One of his hands wrapped around your hair once more and tugged you backward until your back was pressed against his chest.

His hand wrapped around your throat while filling you up to the brim, the sound of his balls slapping filling your ears as he nuzzled the nape of your neck. You weakly reached for his face, turning to look at him in the eyes as he lost himself in your touch.

Eris kissed you passionately, stealing your breath away as he picked up the pace. He was close and when you let your head fall back in mind-numbing pleasure, your fourth orgasm shuddering through you like a wave on the shore, he bit down into your neck and came with a loud moan of your name.

The fire that had surrounded you slowly died down until it was nothing but cooling embers and that’s when your exhaustion finally settled in. The magic that had been fueling you was now deep into the Earth, leaving the both of you aching as you slumped forward.

Your mate caught you easily, the rational side of him returning as he took in the damage of your first night of Annona. He slowly slid his cock out of your abused hole, shushing your whines as he stood and cradled you to his chest. The walk back to the ceremony was full of kind words and praises as he stroked your hair and kissed your forehead, nodding at some of the court members as he stepped inside your home.

Servants were waiting patiently for the two of you but Eris brushed them off, laying you gingerly on the bed before turning on the water to the tub. You took the opportunity to nuzzle into the warmth of the furs, smiling when you felt the gentle hands of Eris lift you up and into the tub.

“Are you alright?” He whispered while gingerly wiping away the dirt and grime of the night, the bruises and bite marks still fresh on your skin. “Are you hurt?”

You shook your head and laid it against his chest, curling into him. “M’fine, my love.” You assured, kissing the hollow of his throat. Eris smiled at the sweet gesture, not knowing what he had done in life to deserve you.

“If I did anything tonight-” He began but you shushed him, using all of your strength to lift your head back up to look at him.

“I’m fine, Eris. Tired and sore, but fine.” You smiled, giving him a peck on the lips. “I love you.”

Eris nuzzled your nose and closed his eyes, rubbing up and down your back soothingly as he whispered back, “I love you too.”
