After a minute the air cooled around them, and they caught their breath. Micah pulled out of Lucy, making her feel empty. He laid down next to her and pulled her to him.

He nuzzled her neck and kissed her gently.

Micah

Micah laid next to Lucy holding her. Making love to her had felt so right. He enjoyed feeling her cuddled up in his arms. He had suspected that she hadn’t been with another man and felt honored and happy that he was the one she gave her innocence to. He just hoped that he could find a way to convince her to go through the mating ceremony with him.

There was no way that Micah would even come close to admitting that he was in love with her, but he did acknowledge that he cared deeply for her, and he couldn’t imagine seeing her with someone else. He wasn’t sure why the thought of seeing her with someone else bothered him so much, but it really did.

They snuggled next to each other quietly for several minutes, then she said, “You know, this was great, but it doesn’t change anything.”

Chuckling, Micah said, “I didn’t expect it to. To be honest, I didn’t expect the kiss to be that intense or to go that far.”

“It was a nice kiss,” Lucy said. “The best kiss that I’ve ever had, in fact.”

“I know, right?” Micah teased. “I am the best. Maybe I should set up a kissing booth when we get back home and raise money for charity.”

Lucy laughed and said, “I didn’t think that we would go that far tonight, but I can honestly say that I’m not sorry. You made me feel things that I didn’t know were possible. I had read about it in books and magazines, but I thought they were exaggerated.”

“You are welcome, ma’am,” Micah said. “I’m here to serve.”

“As much as I loved it, I don’t think that I’m up for another round, so I need you to haul your naked carcass out of my bed and go back to your room,” Lucy said.

“Ouch. I think I just got my feelings hurt. How could you call this work of art a carcass?” Micah replied, gesturing to his body.

“Because it’s all used up for now.” Lucy laughed.

“Oh, you think so, do you? You’re the one who said that round two wasn’t in the works,” Micah replied.

“Would you be able to go again?”

“I don’t know, but I could stick around and find out,” Micah teased. “I’m sure that I wouldn’t disappoint you.”

“I don’t think so. I need to get some sleep. I will admit that after our run today and the exercise from tonight, I’m about ready to pass out.”

“Fine, be that way. But don’t say that I didn’t offer,” Micah joked as he hoisted himself out of bed.

He noticed that Lucy was eyeing his body, so he dressed slowly.

“Do you like what you see?”

“It’s alright,” Lucy replied.

“Alright?” Micah asked, in mock hurt. “I can’t believe you would say something so awful to me.”

Lucy shook her head and laughed at him. She faked a huge yawn, tapping her mouth with her hand.

“Get thee gone, creature,” she said.

Micah grabbed his socks and shoes and leaned over the bed to brush a kiss across Lucy’s lips.

“Sleep well,” he said.

Micah hopped in the shower, enjoying the feeling of the hot water cascading over his body. He closed his eyes and felt Lucy’s hands tentatively touching him. The thought of her shyly exploring his body ignited a couple of embers inside of him and he felt his cock twitching a little bit. He groaned when he thought of how good it felt to be inside of her, with her hot, tight, wet walls caressing him. It had taken him a little effort to hold back his orgasm until she had experienced hers. Micah was starting to ache again. He could definitely go back over there and show her that he was up for a second round.

“Down, boy. I think I need to make this a cold shower,” he said to himself. “Or at least stop thinking about Lucy touching me.”
