"Stay, it's late." Kannan insisted. "I'll take you home in the morning." Eric caught his gaze and held it for several seconds. Kannan remained silent, knowing that he had something to say and trying to find the words to say it.

“Would you lay down with me.” He asked and then looked suddenly shy and started backtracking the request. “You don’t have to. I shouldn’t have asked.”

"There isn't anything I'd enjoy more than to lay down with you," Kannan said very clearly and didn't allow Eric time to renege. He hit the lights and kicked off his shoes in record time. He was wearing light jeans and a henley top and would have liked to remove those as well, but I figured it might look a little presumptuous.

He pulled back the covers and was about to get in when Eric stopped him. "Take off your shirt and pants. You won't be comfortable with your clothing on." That was music to Kannan's ears, and he quickly stripped down to his briefs and got into bed with his beloved. "That's better," Eric said in that sweet, soft way he had of speaking.

Eric got close, and Kannan put his arm around him, pulling up closer so he could snuggle and lay his head on Kannan's chest. It was heaven, absolute heaven, and Kannan never wanted to move. The beat of his heart against him and the soft brush of his breath as it fanned his chest put his heart and mind into a feeling of pure ecstasy. Kannan closed his eyes and just experienced the moment in all its glory.

“I love your warmth and the way you make me feel like everything is going to be okay. Tell me if I’m getting too familiar and I’ll back off, but you make me feel so many things.” Eric held him and pressed himself close slipping his leg across Kannan’s. The skin on skin was luxurious and Kannan’s entire body was reacting.

"You can touch me any time you wish. I love feeling your hands on me." Kannan pulled him closer and dropped a kiss to his forehead. "You make me feel so many things as well, my love. In my arms is exactly where I want you to be." He kissed him again, and Eric moaned sweetly and placed a soft kiss on Kannan's shoulder. Kannan felt his teeth elongating as the desire for his beloved burned in his soul. Eric's leg moved, and he felt his feet rubbing the length of his calf, and the sensations began to explode. His vampire instincts were pushing to the surface, and the need to bite and bond was becoming real.

Perhaps getting into bed with him was the best idea, but there was no way he could deny him. Kannan pushed the raging need down and tried to focus on simple control. It was going good until Eric slid his hand across Kannan's hard cock. That was not an accident.

“I want you, Kannan. Do you want me?"

“Yes, I want you.” He responded. “Are you well enough for what you want?”

"Yes, most definitely." Eric moved and shifted his weight, climbing on top of Kannan, straddling his waist, and pushing himself up to a seated position with his palms pressed against Kannan's chest. Kannan noticed his briefs were gone, and his cock was hard and leaking. It was a lovely picture. Eric looked down at him with eyes that spoke of eagerness and excitement. His blonde hair hung in soft tendrils around his face. He was simply gorgeous.

Eric hardly knew himself right now; he had never behaved this way with anyone. The wanton desire was making him sweat, and every minute spent with Kannan was amazing. He wanted this guy so badly that he was ready to beg, but thankfully, that was not necessary. Kannan was feeling it, too. His body trembled when Eric palmed his cock, and he moaned when Eric straddled him. He was not immune to the need that was filling the air around them.

Everything about this guy turned him on. The sweep of his black hair across his brow, the dark steady gaze that silently said so much, the voice sure and measured and perfect. It all, every part made Eric shiver with delight and ache for more.

Kannan gripped his ass with both hands, kneading the flesh while pulling the cheeks apart and grinding his impressive hard against his tight hole. The sensations were delicious, and Eric began to press himself harder, wanting that hot, hardness inside of him. He dropped down and placed a wet kiss on Kannan's shoulder, reveling in the scent and taste of his lover.

He felt Kannan’s lube-soaked fingers pressing and stretching him. The pressure was fantastic, and soon enough, his fingers began to penetrate. Eric pushed down onto them, forcing them further inside. "That feels so good, Kannan." He moaned and dropped his head down on Kannan's shoulder for a few seconds. "Again, more." He was just mumbling words now and hoping that Kannan understood his need, which he did. The fingers thrust harder and deeper, and his flesh sensitized and tingled with each touch.

"You're so beautiful, my love," Kannan stated in a hushed tone as he captured Eric's gaze with his. The thrusting fell into rhythm with Eric's movements, and the speed increased, each of them needing more and racing to the climax.

The moment was breathless, and Eric felt his heart racing in his chest as his body opened for this man's heart, mind, and body, wanting and welcoming. Kannan, a security specialist, a soldier, a man he met yesterday, was everything he ever desired, and the heat of their union was burning everything down.

CHAPTER SIX

Kannan was losing himself in the surrender of his beloved the beautiful offering of all he possessed. Eric was not holding back there was no pretense or deception it was all real all Eric. He was everything Kannan had hoped for and so much more.

"I need you now, Kannan." His breathless plea was impossible to resist, not that Kannan even tried. He wanted this more than he wanted anything in this life, and Eric was giving it to him freely, openly, and lovingly. Life was perfect. Kannan removed his fingers and immediately replaced them with his hard cock plunging inside in one swift thrust that drove in deep and hard.

Eric gasped and smiled and then slammed his ass down, taking Kannan as deep as possible, and, with a salacious moan, did it again and again. Kannan thrust upward with each downward plunge, building the heat and sharpening the sensation to a razor edge. The desire to feed and to complete the bond was flooding his mind and body. He should wait. They needed to talk, but the rush was taking over. Eric's willingness gave him all he needed to finish their bond.

He fought it for a few minutes and then lost it when Eric slammed down on his cock and then dropped and bit Kannan's shoulder. Kannan made a final thrust and held him tight in his arms as he came, filling him with his warm essence, and then he struck, sinking his teeth into the base of Eric's throat, and he drank deeply, locked together with his beloved.

Eric panted and trembled but did not attempt to move; rather, he dug his fingers into Kannan's sides and held on. He felt the shiver and the warmth seeping between them and knew Eric had climaxed. The scent of sex, love, and eternity filled the room.

Kannan buried his fingers in Eric’s soft hair and drank filling his mind and his soul with the essence of his Fated love. The feelings rushing through him were powerful and profound opening his mind and energizing his being the bond was taking form and their connection was snapping into place.

He finished and licked the wound closed before placing a proprietary kiss to the newly minted scar. Wrapping Eric in his arms he continued to hold him soothing him and giving him time to calm and catch his breath. Kannan remained inside his beloved for a while longer not wanting to lose the warmth of his tight embrace.

Eric sat up and pressed himself firmly against Kannan, seating himself on his now softening cock. He squirmed around and lifted slightly just to come down hard once again. Kannan felt himself begin to thicken once again. "That was quite good." He said, and Kannan smiled at his choice of words.

"Quite good, you say," Kannan responded and then ran his index finger through the seed spilled on his chest, gathering a substantial amount, and then stuck it into his mouth. The flavor was amazing, sharp yet sweet, and fully tasted like his beloved, just wonderful. "Delicious." He said, and Eric giggled. The sound was magical and softened everything inside of Kannan his heart belonged to this man now and forever.

“That was wicked, and I loved it.” Eric dropped and took Kannan’s lips in a kiss that branded and claimed. “You are all mine.” He declared.

"And you are mine," Kannan answered.

"What the fuck are you playing at, Ron? Stop running. I'm not going to hurt you . . . much." Cal laughed, but it was not a humorous laugh. "I paid you good money to have a night with an attractive and willing human, and you set me up with that bitch."
