Ieduin was there, pressing kisses into her cheek and neck, murmuring something she couldn’t quite make out. His hips shifted, his arousal pressing against her leg. Gods, she still had done nothing for him.

“It’s all right,” he whispered into her skin. “You don’t have to.”

Rixxis flushed. She hadn’t realized she’d said anything aloud. “I should. After that… No one has ever… I’ve never…” She bit her tongue, unsure of what to say or how to say it. “I don’t want you to feel like I used you.”

He grinned up at her. “It’s fine if you do. I don’t care. That’s what I’m here for.”

“I don’t want it to be like that.”

She didn’t dare tell him he was the first person to ever touch her like that, to pleasure her with his mouth. Nobody had ever wanted to. If she’d known what it was like, she might have asked, might have given in to Ieduin months ago. Even what she did with her own fingers paled in comparison. She didn’t know how anything could top that.

He rolled onto his back with a sigh. “Trust me, there’s nothing you can do to me that would be even close to my limits.” He was still hard, the slit at the tip of his cock glistening. He stroked himself mindlessly, groaning as a clear teardrop of moisture spilled over.

She reached down to trace her fingers over it, and he immediately took his hands away to let her. The skin there felt different from the rest of him, velvety soft. He let out an appreciative groan.

Curiosity nagged at her, and she shifted her grip on him to better examine the piercing he had. She had initially thought it was two piercings, one metal ball on either side of the head of his cock, but she rolled the pad of her thumb over the head and felt a bar inside connecting them.

He moaned and thrust his hips against her probing fingers.

“That doesn’t hurt?” she asked.

“Hell no, it doesn’t. It feels amazing. Play with it all you want, goddess. That’s what it’s there for.” He grinned, teeth white in the dark. “That’s whatI’mhere for. Use me how you like.”

She repeated the same action as before, drawing her thumb over the slit in his cock. He squirmed, letting out another encouraging moan.

Rixxis wrapped a hand around him and stroked once, ending with the same move as before. More liquid appeared that only grew with the second pump. A third and it spilled over him in a heavy drop that raced over her fingers.

Under her touch, Ieduin bucked and writhed. She wasn’t sure if he was trying to squirm away or get her to move faster. Either way, it made her laugh to see.

“You’re cruel,” he gasped and then smiled, pulling her mouth back to his. “I love it.”

He let out a disappointed groan when she took her hand away, but there were other parts of him she wanted to play with instead, and her hand was getting tired. He clearly still wanted attention, though. Maybe they could both get what they wanted.

She leaned overtop of him and nuzzled her chin against his ear, her body straddling him. He smelled like burnt leaves and wet earth, like the rain on a summer day surrendering to autumn. “I want you inside of me.”

He shuddered beneath her. “You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to hear you say that.”

Ieduin shifted until she felt him pressed against her opening. Her eyes widened. She hadn’t meant now, like that, but there wasn’t any time to object before he was pressing up inside of her. He was bigger than her fingers, and it’d been years since she’d had anything but that. It felt like being split apart.

He grunted, hands moving to her hips to push her down while he thrust up. “Fuck, you’re tight,” he murmured into her skin, panting.

Some of her earlier embarrassment returned. “I’ve never done it this way before.”

He groaned and tipped his head back. “Don’t tell me that. Don’t tell me I’m the first to have you this way.”

“Sorry.”

“Don’t be.” He closed his eyes, swallowed, and tried to collect himself. He gripped her hips and rocked her on top of him. “Like that. Just like that. Oh, gods.Yes.”

He ceded control to her, letting her do all the work. He didn’t thrust into her, but gave her all the power and control over how fast they moved, and how deep he went inside of her. Every movement had him sinking his fingers deeper into where he held her hips, or coaxed out a quiet pant of, “Yes, just like that. Oh, gods, you feel so good.”

It built slower the second time, pleasure coiling low in her stomach like a spring pressed tight. But when it released, it was even more intense. She arched her back and cried out so loud, someone in the castle must’ve heard them. Rixxis braced herself against his chest, her fingers accidentally brushing over the piercings in Ieduin’s nipples.

Ieudin cursed and drove her down harder on him, squeezing her hips and thighs with his fingers so tight, there might be bruises later. He came with a pant and a moan, every muscle in his body tightening even as she went limp.

He was still muttering curses when she collapsed against him, resting her head in the space between his shoulder and his neck. “Shouldn’t have done that,” he panted. “Shouldn’t have… But gods you were so tight. I couldn’t stop it.”

It took her a minute to clear her head enough to realize he meant he shouldn’t have finished inside of her, and she blushed. “It’s okay,” she whispered and rolled onto her side.
