Danon

A fter the early breakfast, I took a short shower. When I came out, Akai was wrapped up in the blanket fast asleep. Looking at him twisted me up inside. He was everything I could ever fantasize the perfect omega to be. Mating him had been like a dream. And when he had allowed me to kiss him, my entire body burst with pleasure.

If only he could feel that, too. In his heat, he was allowing himself to be open. The hormones caused a light in his eyes I'd never seen. But after his heat receded, I had expectations that his resentment would return.

I turned off the overhead light. The faint golden hue of dawn shone through the curtains. We'd made it through the night.

I undid my robe and sat on the side of the bed. My hard cock bobbed up from between my legs. In a rut, I would be ready for my omega at any moment. The erections might subside, but only halfway.

I lifted the blanket and crawled beneath it. The bed shifted. Akai let out a tiny moan, then turned to face me. He pressed up against my body, then went still. His breath was like fire against my chest.

I put one arm around his shoulders and curled around him, making sure his breathing was even and steady. Only then did I allow myself to sleep.

About four hours later, Akai awoke, needy and demanding.

I entered him with ease. His muscles gave way, then squeezed me as if to ensure my arousal. I'd never been so hard with anyone before. If I got any harder, I was positive my cock would break.

He was so hot and receptive to me, I could fuck fast and hard without any complaints from him. It didn't take long for me to come and form a knot.

He took my knots with accelerated desire, coming on them two or three times during the hour it took each one to recede.

The third time I knotted him, he began to beg for my kisses.

"Danon. Put your mouth on mine again."

I was floating. His voice sounded like bells. Irresistible. I was behind him, spooning. He turned his head and I leaned up on his upper body and lowered my head until I could reach him.

He opened his mouth to me like his hole, fully submissive. When my lips touched his, a strong surge went through my cock. The spasms sent me reeling. Semen gushed from me.

See how much he's ours?

Dani interrupted again. Right at the most vulnerable moment. I could only nod as my orgasm swept through me and I kissed Akai deeper.

Our mate. Our mate.

My little dragon chanted over and over.

For the next three days, I prepared our meals. I wouldn't say I cooked. Breakfast was easy, and for other meals I heated up canned soup or made sandwiches. Once, I ordered pizza delivery, getting fully dressed before answering the door to take the pie.

On the third day, Akai slept longer. The bouts of heat went from six in twenty-four hours, to four.

I'd checked him for chafing and injury every time before we had sex. He insisted he was fine.

The pizza box sat open on the floor, empty. Akai lay on his stomach, ass up, legs spread. My knot had gone down, but as he liked, I withdrew slowly so he could feel every inch. When the tip popped out, liquid flooded from his gaping hole.

Without warning, I knew I wanted to taste him. I grabbed his legs before he could move and held them open, then bent and licked from his balls to his hole, lapping around the edges.

"Danon, what?" He gasped, then choked.

I cleaned and sucked at his hole, tasting the combination of him and myself, surprised by the sweetness.

When I pulled back and looked over Akai's back, I saw he had his face planted firmly in the pillow. He was growling. His ass moved up and down. Begging.

I continued to lick and suck at his hole until I heard him cry out. "I'm coming."

I reached between his legs and grabbed his cock. It was already pulsing. My thumb caught some of his cum as I rubbed his over the head.

When he was done, I cleaned him with a towel. Slowly, he rolled over, uninhibited by his nudity.

"That was incredible. I didn't think I had the energy to come again."

I looked at his now depleted cock, pink and pretty where it curved against his groin. "I'm sorry I didn't warn you. I needed that," I said.

"Needed?"

"I had to taste you. It's a feeling like dying of thirst. And you're so beautiful. I wanted to do it."

"I never thought anyone would do that. It was wonderful."

I rubbed absently at his thigh with the towel. I couldn't take my eyes off him. He watched me, the blue of his irises brighter than I'd ever seen them.

"But now I feel sticky," I continued.

"A bath, maybe?"

"Yeah, okay."

It was the first time he acquiesced to anything but a quick shower alone.

"I'll draw one for you."

I jumped up, my cock still dripping, and practically ran to the bathroom. I started the faucet going, then searched for scented bath oils. I had one that was old. Strawberry. I opened the cap. It smelled good. He would like it. I poured some in the hot water, then got out soap and shampoo.

I wished I had more time to make a real bath for him with candles and wine. Maybe even a few flowers. But this would have to do.

I never knew myself as the romantic sort. I hadn't had a lover long enough to do things for him. But Akai changed all that. I wanted to give him comfort and safety. And pleasure.

When I went back into the bedroom, Akai lay naked with his legs splayed, on display for my viewing pleasure. His eyes were closed, his mouth partially open. He had dozed off. I didn't blame him. This was an exhausting time.

I leaned down and kissed him gently. His mouth opened. His arms came up. "Danon."

I kissed deeper, then lifted him into my arms.

He sputtered. "What are you doing?"

"Bath time."

"I forgot. I can walk."

"Why walk when you don't have to?"

He didn't answer. I brought him to the tub and lowered him into the deep, scented water. I'd tested the temperature, so it was perfect.

Akai sighed as I set him down. "That feels so great. So great."

I had a bath pillow and put it behind his head. Then I knelt and got to work washing him.

"I can wash myself," he said. But he didn't budge. His arms floated limply beside him.

"Let me do it. My alpha instinct demands it."

He sighed, eyes closing.

I started with his feet. There were lots of suds and slippery skin for me to take my time with and enjoy. And I did take my time. Getting between every toe and other crevices.

When I got between his legs, I gently bathed his cock and balls, then took the cloth lower between the crack of his ass.

His eyelids fluttered. He bent his knees.

"Okay?" It was our usual ritual now to exchange that word.

"Okay."

I rubbed gently as he lifted his hips. When I was done, I got more suds and washed his cock again because, well, I itched to touch him there, play with him.

I made a sheath of the cloth and gently moved it up and down. Then I held him with my hand and washed the tip with the cloth. When I let go, it bobbed in the water half hard, the pink tip seeking more touch.

I moved up to wash his stomach and chest. Then his hair. We rinsed it under the faucet, Akai cooperating with every command I gave.

When he was done, I kissed him.

His eyes opened wide.

I pretended it was nothing, but I had to do it. The waves of emotion rising up within me had all sorts of unusual instinctive behaviors surfacing.

I helped him out of the tub and dried him off.

Naked, he walked by himself back to the bed. Once he got under the covers, he said, "Thank you."

"Whatever you need. I told you that."

"I'm feeling better. Different now."

"The heat is less?"

He nodded. "But I can still feel the need. Is your rut ending?"

"It usually lasts three days. But as long as an omega is in heat in my bed, it will stay in my blood."

"Good. I need a nap."

With that, Akai rolled onto his side and fell asleep.
