Fourteen

Lux

When our date came to an end, I cleaned up while Archer stayed with Gunner, who'd woken up just as we'd finished eating. We'd left our dirty dishes on the table and spent the last hour or so playing with Gunner on the floor, but now it was bedtime for him, which meant we had to get moving.

After I'd finished cleaning, I changed Gunner, and then we read him some stories until he fell asleep. Archer set up the baby monitors once he was snoozing peacefully, and then we left the room.

We paused outside Gunner's room, unsure of the next move.

"I had fun tonight," I said, and Archer smiled, his dark eyes sparkling brightly.

"So did I. I'd never been on a date as effortless as ours before."

I didn't want to think or talk about Archer's dates with other people, so I quickly blew past.

"What do we do now?"

Archer stepped closer to me, and I sucked in a breath, my back thumping against the door.

"Maybe I could kiss you good night?" Archer suggested, and I swallowed hard before nodding.

Smiling, Archer placed his hands on my hips, then leaned close, his lips brushing the corner of my mouth before slowly wrapping around mine.

Archer kissed me slowly, like he wanted to treasure every movement of his lips against mine, and I kissed him back in kind, memorizing the way his soft lips brushed with mine, how his fingers tightened reflexively with the movement of his lips.

Humming softly, I wrapped my arms around his back, tugging him close. He was so solid against me, warm and hard and soft in all the right places.

Pulling away with a soft gasp, Archer rested his forehead against mine, his soft, panted breaths brushing against my skin. Humans needed to breathe, I remembered suddenly, and made a mental note to keep better track of that in the future.

"Fuck, Lux." Archer's voice was rough, his cheeks flushed and eyes dark as he gazed down at me. "I want to do this right, but I also want to drag you back to my room and make you come."

I swore under my breath as my cock ached insistently, demanding I say yes. It wasn't like we hadn't spent the past month getting to know each other. This may have been our first date, but we weren't strangers.

We were mates, and right now, I really really wanted to go to bed with my mate. I'd managed to bury my desire when I thought of him as just my boss, or when I was worried he'd fire me once he knew the truth. But now? Nothing could stop me from wanting him now.

"I don't think they have to be mutually exclusive," I murmured, and Archer smirked, then lowered his head to kiss me again.

I hummed as he started tugging me toward his room across the hall without breaking our kiss. He ran his tongue over my lower lip, and I opened my mouth for him, moaning when his tongue tangled with mine.

Spice and honey from our meal mixed on his tongue, and hidden beneath that was Archer's own sweet flavor, and I danced my tongue around his, searching for more of that sweetness.

Removing one hand from my hip, he opened his room's door, and we tumbled inside.

Turning me around, he led me backward until the backs of my knees pressed against his bed. Falling backward, I took him with me, gasping softly when his weight pressed me into the mattress, his hard cock grinding against mine through the many layers between us.

Groaning, I thrust upward, rubbing our groins together again as sparks of pleasure raced up my spine.

"Shhh, don't be impatient," Archer murmured against my lips, his hand clamping tight on my hips. We both knew I could easily arch up again if I wanted to, that his human strength was nothing compared to mine, and yet I let him hold me down and guide me.

Pulling up, he gave me a pleased smile, then sat back on my thighs, most of his weight balanced on his knees.

Reaching down, he started unbuttoning my shirt, and I used my magic to do his, making him chuckle. So I couldn't be as patient as him. Could he blame me? When he looked so hot straddling me with his dark hair falling into his lust-drunk eyes, his lips all pink and wet...

Shaking my head, I helped him remove my shirt, and then watched as he slid his off, throwing them both to the edge of the bed.

He glanced down at my pants, then his pants, and frowned. Impatient, I snapped my fingers, removing our pants and underwear and making them join the shirts.

Archer chuckled as he met my eyes, then leaned down and pulled me into another kiss, his palm running down my chest, his skin hot against mine. He left a blazing path of pleasure in his wake, and I arched up into his touch, not wanting it to stop.

"Fuck, you're so beautiful," he murmured, and the reverence in his voice made me moan. "I have no idea how I managed to hold back for so long."

"You did that because you're a good guy," I said, then gasped as he leaned down and latched onto my nipple, his lips sucking the nub into his mouth. Nipple play had never felt as good as it did just then, and I almost shot off the bed when he bit lightly.

"Maybe I'll be a little bad then," he said, gazing up at me with eyes dark with hunger. The look sent a shiver of pure pleasure washing through me, and I tangled my fingers in his hair, holding on as he targeted my other nipple.

My cock was leaking onto my abdomen, the curved head glistening with precum as Archer continued his ministrations, his own cock rubbing against my thigh. I wanted to feel him against me, to feel his cock against mine, to feel him inside me. I wanted Archer all around me, and I didn't think this hunger I felt would ever be satiated.

Archer pulled up and pressed his lips to mine once more, and that was when he heard it: a soft cry through the baby monitor.

Our eyes met, and mirroring sighs slipped past our lips, Archer's eyes falling shut as he rested his forehead against mine.

"Um," I mumbled, unsure what to say. I knew Gunner couldn't hear or see us, but hearing his voice felt like he was suddenly here in this moment between us, and it felt all kinds of wrong.

"Yeah," Archer mumbled, snorting. "It's like he's right here."

Archer

My cock was still hard and aching, but my mind was warring with my body.

I knew there wasn't actually anything wrong with having sex while Gunner was awake in the other room. It wasn't like he could see or hear us, but it still felt weird.

"I can use my magic to alert me if Gunner actually needs us, and we can mute the monitors," Lux suggested, and I nodded quickly, liking that idea very much.

Then I remembered something Lux had mentioned the other day. "But won't you be able to hear him anyway?" Lux's hearing was far superior to mine, and he'd told me he could hear all the way to the main street if he wanted to.

"I'll put up a silencing ward that'll keep me from hearing him and him from hearing us."

Yeah, that sounded like a good idea.

Lux closed his eyes, and then opened them again after a few seconds. "There. Done."

Lux gazed up at me, a hint of nerves in his eyes as if he wasn't sure how to get back to where we'd been.

Taking control, I leaned down and pressed my lips to his once more, pulling him into a deep kiss as I slid my hand down his body until I reached his leaking cock.

Wrapping my palm around his length, I gave him a few pulls before deciding I needed to taste him.

Pulling back with a parting bite on his lower lip, I dropped kisses down his body, giving his nipples some extra attention since he'd seemed to like it.

Before sliding further down, I put my hands under his arms and moved him higher on the bed, then crawled lower until my face was right up against his groin.

Breathing in his scent, I licked my lips, and Lux moaned, his blue eyes heavy with desire as he gazed down at me.

Pressing a kiss against his inner thigh, I took his cock in my palm, rubbing up and down his length for a few times before leaning forward and licking off the precum from his tip.

I hummed at the salty taste with just a hint of sweet, and then wrapped my lips around his head, sucking on it the way I'd sucked on his nipples.

Lux groaned, and I held him down with my free hand when he tried to push up into my mouth. While I wanted to give him a blowjob, this was only my second one, and I wasn't really confident in my ability to make it good for him. I probably should've started off with something easy like a handjob, but I'd always been the type to tackle every challenge I came across.

"Wait," Lux said, and I paused, wondering if I'd done something wrong or hurt him somehow.

"What is it?"

Lux glanced down at me, the blue in his eyes nothing more than a ring around his dark pupils. "I want to taste you too."

"Oh," I murmured, sitting upright as my cock twitched at the thought of having Lux's lips wrapped around me.

Swallowing hard, I nodded, then knee-walked over to Lux's head before lying down on my side. I had to bend a little to make it work since I was taller, but then my face was against his groin while his was against mine.

Lux hummed as he nosed along my length, and I groaned softly, letting the pleasure drive me as I leaned forward and took his cock in my hands again, licking up the precum before sliding him into my mouth.

Jacking him off with my hands, I teased at his hole with the tip of my tongue, licking off the precum as it shot out.

I moaned against his length when he swallowed mine, which made him groan in turn, sending vibrations down the length of my cock.

I'd never done anything like this before, and the infinite loop of pleasure we seemed to be stuck in pushed us closer and closer to the edge with every lick, every touch, and every groan.

Using one hand to jerk him off, I used the other to play with his balls the way I enjoyed mine being played with, and he pulled me deeper into his mouth, his throat convulsing around me as he swallowed, determined to make me come.

I could feel my orgasm closing in, but I wanted to make Lux come first. Picking up the pace as I jerked him off, I sucked on his cockhead some more, teasing his balls and massaging them as I hummed around him.

Lux groaned, and it took everything in me not to come right then, but I pushed through, and then his body went stiff, and he spilled into my mouth, thick ropes of cum that I had a hard time keeping up with as I tried to swallow it all. A lot of it ended up dribbling out of my mouth, and when he swallowed around my cock once more, I couldn't stop myself from spilling down his throat as pleasure shot through me, making everything look brighter for a few moments.

As I caught my breath, Lux sat up, then tugged me upright. His eyes widened as he looked at me, and then he leaned forward and...licked his cum off my lips, humming happily. Somehow, that felt more intimate than everything we had done up to that point, and I found myself wrapping my hand around his neck and pulling him into a messy kiss, the taste of his cum on both our tongues.

We made out for a few minutes before I had to pull away to breathe, and I glanced over at the bathroom, trying to will myself to get up and go get us something to clean up with.

Lux squeezed my hand, and I glanced over at him just as he snapped his fingers, and suddenly we were both pristine as we'd been when we first came into the room.

"That's handy," I commented, and Lux chuckled softly. Then an unsure look slid into his eyes, and he chewed on his lower lip.

"What is it?"

"Um, do you want me to go back to my room?"

My eyes widened, and I shook my head quickly. "Oh hell no. I need some post-sex cuddling, and then we're going to sleep right here. Together."

Lux smiled brightly, and I returned his smile as we lay down, quickly pulling him into my arms. He tucked his head under my chin, and I sighed softly as I wrapped him tight, covering us both with the blanket.

Lux turned the monitor back on, though he left the protective ward around Gunner's nursery, and then we quickly fell asleep. Together.
