Evan narrowed his eyes before dropping their bags next to the desk along the wall. “Keep it up, boy. We still need to have a discussion about limits. You don’t want to push yours.”
Nix gave Evan a saucy wink. “I already told you that I don’t have any limits. I am yours to command.”
Evan’s gaze was locked on his as he stalked to the bed.
Nix did begin to grow a little nervous. He had only seen that look on Evan’s face once, right after he’d blown Nix the first time, when he’d declared Nix as his.
It took everything in him to keep grinning. Playing the brat. That was what fun he wanted to have.
Evan placed a knee on the mattress beside Nix’s leg. “Turn over.”
Rolling onto his back, Nix gazed up at Evan as his goalie straddled his thighs.
“You pushing for a reason? If it’s the Daddy thing—”
“I already told you that I was one-hundred-percent on board with you being my Daddy,” Nix said. “Not just calling you Daddy but letting you Daddy all over me.”
Evan cupped his face. “No joking, boy. I want real answers.”
“I am giving you a real answer. I want you to be my Daddy. I want you to have control over me. I need your dominance. I like being a brat sometimes. I know that you won’t get mad at me. Not really. That I can push and it’s okay.”
“It’s okay,” Evan assured him. “That doesn’t mean there won’t be consequences.”
Nix swallowed hard. “I’m not scared of the consequences.”
“Is that right? I can hear your heart racing,” Evan told him.
“I don’t want you to get tired of me. I’m not new to kink or even BDSM. I’ve played in clubs before.”
Evan’s fingers tightened on Nix’s chin. “Why didn’t you tell me this sooner?”
“Do you really want to hear about every man I’ve fucked?” Nix asked crudely. Still pushing. Still needing.
Evan’s gold eyes flashed bright.
“See! You don’t. And I don’t really want to talk about them. None of them mattered. Not like you do. I just know that after I play with someone, they usually lose interest in me. I don’t want that to happen this time,” Nix confessed.
Evan smiled. “The difference is that we’re not playing around, boy. I told you that you were mine. I meant that. A dragon is very possessive of what they consider theirs. I’ve shared the stories of when a dragon chooses their human partner. Does that give you any idea how serious I am taking this?”
“You say that now—” Nix began.
“I don’t change my mind about things like this,” Evan said. “It might seem fast but that is only because I’d already thought about us together, the consequences, and all the ways I want to claim you.”
“You promise?” Nix’s voice shook but he couldn’t help it. It was fast but Nix was sure this time. He could be himself. He’d shared glimpses of himself with Evan even before they were intimate.
“Baby, I would give you the world if you wanted it,” Evan declared.
“I don’t want the world,” Nix said. “I just want you.”
Lowering his head, Evan kissed Nix gently. “You want me even if I come with lots of rules? That I’ll let you brat then tie you up and spank that sweet ass of yours?”
“Yes!” Nix hissed.
“I think you’re concentrating on the parts you like. We both know you’re not a fan of rules.”
“I like your rules.” Nix frowned. “Okay, that’s a lie. You right, I don’t like the rule of no sex before a game. But I do like that you care enough to make the rules. You’ll enforce them too?”
“I will,” Evan confirmed.
