Pretty much from the moment they met, Thalia Grace and Zoë Nightshade had been at odds. Zoë tried to recruit her to join the Hunters of Artemis, but Thalia hadn’t wanted to be apart from Luke and Annabeth, who she’d been traveling with at the time. Her refusal had angered Zoë, starting an argument between the two of them, and those arguments had colored their relationship going forward. Any time they ran into each other or fought on the same side, Thalia and Zoë argued with each other constantly. Whether the topic was battle tactics, leadership, Thalia’s decision to reject a place with the Hunters, or even the dated way that Zoë spoke, the two girls clashed constantly. Even if Thalia’s life hadn’t gone anywhere close to how she’d hoped it would, between Luke’s betrayal and that whole getting turned into a tree for years thing, all the fighting with Zoë had never given her any reason to regret her decision to refuse the Hunters.

She had to admit that Zoë was making a much more persuasive argument this time around, though. Zoë’s tongue licking her pussy certainly was bringing Thalia more happiness than being around Camp Half-Blood had been lately.

Thalia still didn’t know how Zoë found out that today was her birthday. It wasn’t like they sat around sharing personal details with each other in between all of their fighting, and there wasn’t anyone else around to celebrate her birthday with. When their shared efforts to aid Annabeth happened to leave her and Zoë alone through December 22nd, Thalia had been prepared to spend her birthday bickering with the girl who constantly managed to get on her nerves, making it identical to the last three days they’d been alone.

Instead, Zoë stunned her by taking a deep breath and wishing her a happy birthday and continued to stun her by taking her into her arms and planting a kiss on her. It had been the first kiss of several, and Zoë’s lips were the softest she’d ever felt, not that she had many to compare them against. She definitely didn’t have any experience having a woman plant kisses all over her body while she undressed her, but Thalia warmed up to the feeling quickly. Zoë so often had criticisms or complaints to make about Thalia, but right now, her mouth was being used to worship her body instead. It was a very welcome change.

She’d kissed down her body as she got her naked, and when she settled in on her belly between Thalia’s legs, Zoë spent a great deal of time licking and kissing her inner thighs. She’d lingered there so long that it had driven Thalia to the point of being so frustrated that she rolled her hips and even grabbed at her long dark hair, but Zoë refused to be hurried along. She licked and kissed Thalia at her own pace, and she didn’t start licking and kissing her pussy until she decided that the time was right.

Her judgment was impeccable, though, because Thalia had never felt anything like the jolt of pleasure that shot through her when Zoë’s tongue took its first lick along her labia. Every lick and kiss that followed only built Thalia’s pleasure, making her writhe and moan helplessly under the amazing oral attention. Zoë’s mouth was skilled, and Thalia had no doubt as she licked her pussy that this was not the first time Zoë’s head had been between another woman’s legs. She was too good at this to be new to it, unlike Thalia, who threw her head back and moaned as her body was struck by the pleasure of having a woman’s mouth on her sex for the first time.

Artemis’ lieutenant seemed to be watching Thalia closely, apparently very interested in observing her face as she gave her pleasure. Those brown eyes peered up at Thalia from between her legs throughout her oral worship, and Thalia was surprised by how much she enjoyed that look. Seeing this woman’s face usually soured her mood, knowing that she was about to be frustrated by all the arguing they would do until they were no longer in each other’s presence. But she had a new appreciation for it now that she got to look down her body and watch Zoë’s admittedly beautiful face at work between her legs.

Zoë was giving her great head to begin with, but it only got better once she started paying attention to Thalia’s clit. She teased it with gentle licks and some heavy breathing at first, but once she seemed to realize that Thalia welcomed the direct contact and wouldn’t mind something with a bit more heat behind it, Zoë went for the proverbial kill. She had Thalia groaning and bucking when she took her clit between her lips and suckled it, and her fingers joined in as well, pressing firmly against her labia and stroking up and down quickly.

“Fuck!” Thalia grunted, humping and bucking as she held onto Zoë’s head, feeling the pleasure about to hit its peak. It obviously wasn’t going to be the first orgasm of her life, but Zoë’s mouth and her fingers were about to push Thalia to new heights never before glimpsed, and she was impatient to get there. After the frustration of everything that had happened with Luke, not to mention that whole business of being turned into a pine tree for like six years, Thalia had waited long enough for a moment like this. It was coming courtesy of the mouth and the fingers of one of the last people she would ever have expected, but Thalia didn’t give a fuck about that right now. She would have moaned and humped the face of her worst enemy if they’d been able to make her feel like this.

"Yes!" she shouted, pulling hard on Zoë’s hair as she came. Her butt rose from the ground and stayed in the air during her orgasm, and Zoë’s fingers left her sex so she could reach beneath her and grab her ass with both hands. She didn't know if she grabbed her butt for support or simply because she wanted to get a grope in. It didn't matter either way. Zoë could have squeezed her ass for the rest of the day, and Thalia wouldn’t have knocked her hands away. It was the least she deserved after bringing Thalia so much pleasure.

Zoë finally let go of her ass when Thalia’s body relaxed after her orgasm. Thalia wasn’t sure what to expect next; would they talk about what had just happened? Was Zoë going to explain why she’d decided to give her such an unexpected birthday gift during their travels, or were they going to ignore this, pretend it didn’t happen, and go back to bickering again as soon as Thalia put her clothes back on?

“Happy birthday, Thalia,” Zoë said. She planted a kiss on Thalia’s thigh before pulling her head out from between her legs.

“When’s your birthday?” Thalia asked suddenly, sitting up to look at Zoë as she sat back on her knees. Zoë blinked, seeming to consider the question before eventually shrugging her shoulders.

“I’m not sure,” the Hunter admitted. “Twas over two millennia ago. The days dost blur together with the passage of time.”

“That didn’t stop you from remembering mine,” Thalia pointed out. Zoë just shrugged again, saying nothing and betraying no emotion on her face. Finally, Thalia sighed. “Fine, then. Christmas is in three days. Expect a similar gift from me.” Zoë looked at her in silence for a few seconds before nodding.

“I shall mark the date,” Zoë said seriously.
