Cassius inhaled shakily. “Don’t what?”

“Don’t pull away from me. Don’t hide your feelings. It breaks my heart when you do that.”

Cassius swallowed and opened his eyes. The fierce light blazing in Morgan’s pupils threatened to scorch him.

“I love you, Cassius. I will love you in this life and every life that may come after this one, in whatever form we may be reborn. So, be with me. Be mine, in every way possible. Let us make a child together, as we both wish.”

The tears Cassius had been holding back finally sprang to his eyes. But they were of joy, not sorrow.

Morgan wiped them away gently before taking his mouth in a kiss full of promise.

Desire stirred Cassius’s blood, slow and smoldering. Morgan deepened their kiss, passion painting red flags on his cheekbones. He guided Cassius to the bed and pushed him down. Cassius welcomed his weight with a moan as he climbed on the mattress.

Morgan stripped him of his clothes at a leisurely pace, his hands skimming Cassius’s exposed skin with light touches that ignited his flesh, his mouth raining sweet kisses in the wake of his fingers.

Cassius trembled when Morgan pulled back so he could get undressed, the layers falling away to expose his powerful figure. A gasp left him as Morgan trailed a lazy knuckle along the length of his weeping cock. His ass twitched in anticipation of all that was to come.

He hadn’t welcomed Morgan inside his body for days and his passage ached from his absence.

“You’re so beautiful,” Morgan murmured hotly. “Every inch of you is exquisite.”

In the hour that followed, he showed Cassius exactly what he meant. Cassius shivered and moaned and writhed as Morgan worshipped his body with his lips and his tongue and his fingers, the slow burn between their soul cores making him dizzy with pleasure.

He relished everything about the way Morgan had sex with him.

But this?Thisright here?

When Morgan slowed it all down and took his time driving him out of his mind?

It wrecked Cassius in ways that seared his very soul.

“Ah!”

Cassius arched his back off the bed and bit his lip to muffle his cry. Morgan had just rubbed his hole with a lube-slicked finger.

He shuddered as Morgan parted his knees and settled in the cradle of his thighs. Cassius wrapped his legs around Morgan’s waist and hugged his shoulders, Morgan’s heart thrumming strongly against his cheek where he buried his face in the demigod’s chest.

Instead of taking him, Morgan started a lazy dance, his hips rolling to stroke his erection against Cassius’s turgid shaft while he played with the taut folds protecting his passage.

“Enter me!” Cassius begged brokenly, too far gone to bear this sweet torture.

He dropped a hand to his cock, eager for some kind of release.

“No.” Morgan took his hand and kissed his palm before locking his wrists above his head with a firm grip. His eyes blazed as he nipped at Cassius’s lip with his teeth. “Not yet.”

It wasn’t until he’d brought Cassius to a protracted orgasm that left him a hot, sweaty, breathless mess that Morgan finally guided his cock to Cassius’s entrance.

Cassius shuddered as Morgan pushed inside him, so eager for this act that the sting and burn of penetration was but a fleeting ache. Morgan filled him to the brim inch by steady inch, hips rocking in steady nudges that threatened Cassius’s very sanity. Morgan stilled when he was in to the hilt, his breaths coming heavily, sweat dripping from his chin into the crook of Cassius’s neck.

Cassius clung on for dear life when Morgan started to move.

“Oh!” He whimpered, his hole spasming hungrily around Morgan’s dick. “More! Harder!”

Morgan swallowed his cries with his lips and ignored his pleas. He swayed his hips at a measured pace as he thrust in and out, as if he had all the time in the world. And all the while he held Cassius’s hands prisoner and fixed him with a torrid gaze full of passion and tenderness.

Cassius lost himself in their lovemaking, welcoming everything Morgan gave him, his body pliant and eager as he accepted the man who had chosen not to forsake him. Dizzying waves of ecstasy swelled from his sparking core as Morgan brought him to one devastating climax after another, his moans and soft cries lost in the space between their bodies before Morgan devoured them with his mouth.

His orgasms blinded him, just as the bond that linked their souls burned with a light that threatened to sear his body.
