Onyx nodded, giving in and trusting Nico yet again.
Not intending to torture his mate, Nico bent down and quickly sorted through the cuffs, selecting leather ones for Onyx’s wrists and ankles, along with attachable chains, and brought them to the bed.
Onyx watched him with avid attention. “You can anchor those to the posts or the bedframe.”
Nico inspected the bedframe and found the perfect place to attach the chains on either side, leaving Onyx on his knees at the center. The chains turned out to be the perfect length to prevent him from closing his legs.
Climbing onto the bed, Nico attached the leather cuffs to Onyx’s ankles, tightening the buckles, then secured them to the chains, making sure nothing was too tight.
He came to rest behind Onyx. His mate held his body still, his feathers ruffling slightly and that pretty tail twitching back and forth. Nico caressed Onyx’s legs, kissing his calf muscles and inner thighs. Onyx’s tail flicked vigorously, flushing lavender, as he let out soft panting breaths.
Nico ran a hand along Onyx’s arched spine to caress his shoulders, exploring the place where Onyx’s wings sprouted from his back, the feathers almost as pale as his skin.
“My pretty little butterfly.”
Onyx dropped his head forward and moaned, horns hitting the mattress.
If he’d have survived the prolonged anticipation, Nico might have drawn this out. However, they had the rest of time to tease. Being with Onyx felt so right, he couldn’t deny either of them.
Their growing connection begged to be nurtured.
Climbing off the bed, Nico moved around Onyx’s wingsto the head. He knelt in front of Onyx and dropped a pair of leather handcuffs.
Onyx inspected the restraints hungrily. “Please, Nico.” He tipped his head back and hit Nico with a brilliant stare.
As if Nico was being pulled into the sun’s orbit, he leaned down and kissed his demon’s pouty lips.
Onyx responded like he was starved. “My mate.Nico. It doesn’t seem real that you’re mine.”
Nico hummed. “But it is. I’m all yours. Forever. You’re stuck with me.”
He pulled back, finding pure happiness lighting Onyx’s lavender flushed face. Nico stroked his cheek and positioned the cuffs around Onyx’s wrists, not that leather or even the chains were any match for a demon, but that wasn’t the point.
Onyx’s eyes fluttered closed as Nico secured his wrists together. He seemed relaxed, almost blissful.
Nico caressed his face and ran gentle fingers up one of his horns. They were more similar to leather than skin, yet looked so delicate, a spiderweb of veins peeking from beneath the surface. A bloom of crimson followed Nico’s touch, fading to lavender.
“I’m enchanted by you, Onyx. I wasn’t lying about wanting to see all of you. I want you so stripped bare that there’s nothing between us. I want you angry and petty and spiteful, and I want you soft and pliant. All of it.”
Onyx spoke so quietly, it was hard to hear. “I want that too. All of you, Nico.”
Nico kissed Onyx, unable to pull away.
“Your lips are my new addiction,” Onyx murmured, seeming dazed.
“Likewise.” Nico forced their mouths apart. He’d planned to retrieve one of the leather paddles from the trunk, but thesight of Onyx, open-mouthed and at his mercy, wasn’t one he could turn away from.
Nico grasped one of Onyx’s horns, stroking it, and guided Onyx from his elbows higher, onto his cuffed hands. Inching forward on his knees, Nico pushed his cock into Onyx’s mouth.
Onyx moaned around him and sucked eagerly.
“Mmm. That’s it. Your mouth belongs around my cock.” Nico thrust his hips. “Suck me so the next time I kiss those pretty lips, they taste like my cum.”
Onyx hollowed his cheeks obediently, and Nico thrust deep.
“You feel like you’re mine yet?” Nico groaned as he hit the back of Onyx’s throat. “You’re trapped. I’ll never let you slip away now. You’re my mate and I’m keeping you right here, where you belong.”
Onyx whined and shuddered, his lashes fluttering.
