Protected.

Loved.

Before I met him, thoughts like that would’ve made me question what was wrong with me. I didn’t think that level of sentiment could exist with the physical act of sex. Now, I can’t imagine it any other way.

Kier breaks our kiss with a grunt, eyes drifting to the mirror, where he’s got the perfect view of my dick bobbing freely. My gaze follows his, and I have to admit it’s a heady sight. Seeing myself so flushed and hard, and the near feral expression it puts on his face, makes me even more desperate for release.

“More.” I plead breathlessly.

Kier’s right hand makes its way to my cock while the left finds my balls. Using his forearms to hold me to him, his hips start to punch forward at a pace that has his fist meeting the base of my dick each time he bottoms out, all the while that left hand massages my sac. The mix of prodding and pulling and rubbing is so overwhelming my body doesn’t know what to focus on, and I can do little more than hold on as he has his way with me.

Near feral moans erupt from my throat as my body climbs higher and higher into the clouds. My vision goes hazy as my muscles cramp from the effort of trying to hold myself upright long enough to realize the nirvana he’s taking me to.

“Yes, Kier. Yes.”

“Oh, God, Leanbh. Oh God.” His grip tightens around my cock, turning the head a dark purple.

The pleasure becomes so intense I can’t fight it anymore, and my ass contracts around Kier’s cock as ropes of cum spurt from my slit, coating the mirror in front of me.

Kier thrust a final time and holds still, biting down on my shoulder as his fist continues to slide over my dick, milking me for everything I have to give. My whole body twitches and shakes as the orgasm blasts through me, the euphoria so all-consuming my vision goes white, and I have the sensation of being weightless.

When my vision returns my cock is still pulsing in Kier’s fist as his twitches inside me, our mutual release so strong the aftershocks come for what feels like minutes instead of seconds. As they finally recede my body is so sated I’m not entirely sure how it’s still upright, but since it’s still joined to Kier’s I’m determined to stay that way.

“Leanbh.” His deep whisper rumbles against my ear.

I don’t have the strength to do anything but nod my agreement. Fortunately, Kier seems to have strength enough for the both of us, cupping my chin and turning my face to his for a gentle kiss.

It rejuvenates me enough to bring my eyes to his lovely blue ones, which shine with a mixture of affection and awe. And even though words aren’t necessary given what I see in his expression, I say them anyway. “I love you, Maoin.”

“I love you too.”

After a quick shower to clean up, we finally make our way to the kitchen for some breakfast, which takes far longer to make than it should since we keep stealing kisses. It’s odd, this is far from the first time we’ve made a meal after I’ve stayed over, but it somehow feels more poignant. Maybe because the school year is almost over, and we’re nearly done having to hide. That reminds me…

“I want you at the graduation ceremony,” I blurt as we set our plates on the table. “I know you’ll be part of my future regardless, but you’re part of my present, too. A major part. And I want to share that with you, even if it means I’ll have to work a little harder to prove myself in the field.”

“You’re sure? You’ve worked so hard to get where you are, I don’t want our relationship to take away from your accomplishments.”

“It doesn’t. Not to me. I don’t care what anyone else thinks. Besides, eventually I’ll prove them wrong.”

Kier wraps his hand around the back of my head and tugs me to him, so our foreheads are resting together. “Yes, you will, Leanbh. And I have a feeling that won’t take as long as you think.”

I pull back so I can see his face. “What do you mean?”

“My dad called me this week. The initial test of his new prosthetic was the most promising yet. He hasn’t tried to run but feels like he can walk normally. And the doctors who oversaw the test are raving about how well the leg functioned. They’re calling it a game changer.”

“We did it?” My heartbeat accelerates at the thought of giving Kier’s dad a piece of his life he thought was lost.

“It looks that way. And both our names are going on the article we’ll publish about our findings, which is an accolade you don’t share with people who haven’t earned it. Once that’s available, it’ll speak volumes about your legitimacy in the field. Between that and being my business partner, it won’t take long for people to see how brilliant you are.” Kier brushes a stubborn lock of hair off my forehead and gives me a lingering kiss. “My dad’s already singing your praises.”

“Your…What?! Why would he be singing my praises?”

“Because I told him my boyfriend is the one who helped me with the research.”

It’s impossible to keep the giddy smile off my face. “You told your parents about me?”

“Why do you seem surprised?”

“I didn’t think you were doing that until after I graduated.”
