“Yes,” Holi said, feeling stupid for thinking everything Xaine did was a show of dominance. Holi walked to the bed and sat down a few paces away. But Xaine moved closer, bringing his warmth with him.
Fuck, he was hot.
“Here.” He handed Holi a plate of food. They ate in silence. The food was delicious, but Holi could barely taste it with Xaine sitting so close to him.
The alpha won’t even give him room to eat in peace. Holi sighed, tired of everything. The fighting, the running, the worrying…everything. As if Xaine heard his thoughts, he took his plate from him.
“You’re not eating,” he said. He picked up a piece of meat and held it to Holi’s lips.
“I can feed myself,” Holi said, trying to take the plate back.
“No.” Xaine said in his alpha voice.
Holi shivered, responding to it even though he didn’t want to. Fuck, he hated him.
“Don’t use your alpha voice on me,” Holi snapped.
“I’m not,” Xaine said. “This is the second time you accuse me of doing something when I’m not. Do you want me to give you another lesson?”
“No!” Holi shouted. Xaine laughed. “You like tormenting me.”
“Open up,” Xaine said.
Holi found himself doing just that, in spite of himself. He opened his mouth and Xaine fed him the piece of meat.
“Good,” Xaine praised him. The simple word rolled down Holi’s spine in the sweetest way. Surprised he liked it, Holi jolted, almost falling off the bed. Xaine easily caught him and dragged him over his lap.
He gripped Holi’s thighs and wrapped them around his waist. Holi gasped as his cock brushed against Xaine’s very hard one.
Fuck, he was big and thick. Holi clenched his jaw, trying very hard not to react.
“Must you make everything uncomfortable?” he said, trying to get off Xaine.
“This is uncomfortable?” Xaine asked, holding on to him. “I’m going to be inside you by the end of the night. What’s so uncomfortable about this?” Xaine leaned closer, their foreheads almost touching.
Was it hot in here? Holi asked himself, suddenly feeling too hot.
“I’m going to touch, fuck and kiss you, Holi. Sitting in my lap shouldn’t faze you.”
“I know. I…just. I didn’t think we'd be like this when we’re not...having sex,” Holi said. “It feels too intimate.”
“You said I can do whatever I want, remember?” Xaine asked.
Holi nodded. “Is this what you want, feeding me and having me in your lap?”
“Some of it,” Xaine said. He placed his free hand on Holi's ass and rocked his pelvis against his. Holi’s jaw dropped open as heat pooled
in his groin. His cock jerked, growing hard in seconds. Pleasure sizzled along the length of his cock as Xaine continued to rock his hips, creating the sweetest friction. “Is this too much for you?”
“Yes,” Holi said. It was terrible. He hated him. He shouldn’t be reacting to him like this.
Xaine stared at him, the gold in his eyes intensifying. “Am I too much?”
“Yes.” Xaine was overwhelming. He was everywhere. Holi couldn't breathe without taking a part of him into his lungs. Or go a minute without feeling his presence.
Xaine went still for a while before he resumed feeding him. The awkward silence continued until they finished eating. It was a miracle Holi didn’t choke.
“I’m going to wash my hands.” Holi slid off Xaine’s lap and ran to the washroom. He stayed there for a while. When he finally mastered the courage to walk back into the room, he found Xaine gone.
