Page 33 of The White Dragon's Dilemma

“Need you,” Caden breathed and snow swirled around both their bodies.

It instantly evaporated when it touched Valerius’ skin, but the snow-kiss helped cool him down enough that his hands only shook a little as he slicked himself with the remaining shower gel.

He positioned the head of his cock--almost purple with the swell of blood--against that still tight opening.But neither of them could wait any longer.

Make us one.

He wasn’t sure who said that.Was it him?Raziel?Caden?Iolaire?All of them?

Valerius plunged inside Caden’s body with a reckless abandon.Caden’s hiss of pleasured-pain though had him holding himself exquisitely still.

“Did I--”

“No, it’s good.Need this,” Caden assured him.

But still Valerius did not move.Instead, he peppered Caden’s shoulders, the back of his neck and the top of his spine with kisses and licks.He tasted snow on his tongue.Frost melted away under his lips.His teeth made drag marks in ice.

He allowed his hands to move from Caden’s hips all the way up his back, melting away the frozen covering that encased Caden in a protective sheet of frost.Caden groaned and arched his back into Valerius’ hands as huge slabs of ice fell from his bare skin and crashed to the floor where they shattered into a million pieces and swirled down the drain.

Valerius sank another inch.He was fully seated inside of Caden now.His cock tingled as he felt his own heat mix with Caden’s coolness.There was a prickling sensation on that tender skin that had him curling forward as his orgasm threatened to surge within him and overcome all his self control.He rested his forehead against Caden’s spine and just breathed to let this moment pass.

Caden reached back with one hand to grasp one of his.They threaded their fingers together and he put those joined hands over Caden’s heart.He could feel the thump of it like a bird beating at the bars of a cage.He pressed another long kiss on the very top of Caden’s spine.Caden’s heart stopped galloping and took on the rhythm of his own, which while fast, was not so violent.

Valerius then began to move inside of Caden’s body.The young man’s back passage clung to his cock like a second skin. Even with all of the slickness of the gel and the stretching, Caden was still so very tight.But he was also large.He knew that there would be pain so he distracted Caden by lightly biting his shoulder.Caden let out a moan as his tongue bathed the hurt even as his hips pulled back and then pistoned forward.

Caden’s heart rate began to speed up again as the rhythm of their lovemaking took on that primal beat.The thrust.The slap of skin against skin.The withdrawal that left only the tip of his cock inside before it hurtled forward once more.Heat built up between them until it was impossible to know where he ended and Caden began.They were one.A being of pure pleasure.

The young man looked for him and Valerius was there.They were kissing.Tongues and teeth meeting and breaking apart.Lips clinging to one another.Fire and ice.Plumes of steam surrounded them, acting as another lover to caress their skin.

The beat of their hearts joined the slap of his balls against Caden’s ass.Their staccato breathing joined the band.Moans interspersed that and grunts and mewls and indescribable sounds of lovemaking that no one would mistake.

Valerius was practically breathing in Caden’s skin as he leaned over the young man’s bowed form and rocked their bodies together.He could no longer bear to draw almost all the way out of Caden.To be separate was simplywrong.Instead, he shifted in and out by inches and then pushed deeper.He ground his front against Caden’s ass, needing to be deeper, more fully seated.

Caden pushed back with equal ferocity.He wanted them to be as close as possible for when their orgasms came.Those were not far away.Valerius could feel the thin crust over the lake of fire inside of him cracking.Caden glittered like an ice fairy.A vision that would lead men into the wastes of the frozen north.A vision to drive men mad.But this vision he had caught.It was his.No one else’s.And the fire inside of him would burn away all this ice and Caden would be tender and exposed andhis.

The steam boiled around them as the crust of control shattered.Valerius held Caden tightly to him.Their mouths searched for each other for a kiss.Their bodies were fused together.

The orgasms--when they came--seemed to pull out every ounce of cum from within both of them.They wrung them dry.Valerius let out a shout as his seed was spilled inside Caden’s silken insides.Caden’s cum splashed their joined hands and painted the wall with pearlescent streams.Steam and snow swirled around their joined bodies as Caden bore down on Valerius’ cock to get that last spurt inside of him.To capture that last trace of essence.

Hands still joined, bodies still connected, they sank down to the floor of the shower as the water poured over their heads and they kissed.Slow, long kisses as the aftermath of their lovemaking pounded through their veins.

Valerius’ eyelids had fallen shut at some point, but he could see both Raziel and Iolaire.The two dragons had their foreheads pressed together.Their eyes were closed too.They were purring.Raziel’s black wings curled around Iolaire, protecting the White Dragon from everyone and everything.

Later, after they had recovered, dried themselves off and dressed, Valerius and Caden had gone down to the dining room, hand in hand.They had said nothing though Caden had been humming happily.Valerius found himself smiling like a fool, except he felt anything but foolish.

When they opened the doors to the formal dining room with its three-tiered chandeliers and fabulous golden chairs with rich red upholstery, they had expected to find the other Dragon Shifters shouting at one another over the first course.

But there was barely any discussion. The room was mostly silent.

In fact, the other Dragon Shifters were staring out the doors that were open to another protected square and the night outside.They were all staring at a beautiful sight.Across the starry sky was what looked like a curling strand of ice crystals and wrapped around it was what looked like an equal strand of red ones.Not only could everyone in this room see them, but everyone in Reach could and maybe farther than that.

Caden squeezed Valerius’ hand in his.Valerius looked down into Caden’s face.He could still see Iolaire’s as well.He pressed a kiss to Caden’s forehead before turning back to the other Dragon Shifters.

Valerius’ voice was clear and certain as he asked, “So are we ready to save the world?”

ALONE OR TOGETHER, SEPARATE OR ONE

“If I had to say what they are doing, it looks like Raziel is showing off while Iolaire is the cheerleading section,” Caden said as he watched the Black and White Dragons in the magic mirror in the throne room.
