As I rolled to my left, pulling him to me, he caught me as well, putting his arms under me and pulling me into a full body embrace. His cock pressed against my hip. He nearly lifted me off the bed and just held me like a child curled in his arms. My cum had smeared between us, but he didn’t seem to notice.
“Too close?” he whispered in my ear.
Too close? He’d kissed me. He’d touched my cock. “No. Just right. You sensed what I wanted before I could ask.”
“I am a good reader of body language.”
How long had I been wanting this, wanting to be held? Wanting someone to show me how this could be good, without pain?
I whispered into his chest, “I want you to teach me what you know.”
“My pleasure.” Lev kissed the side of my head.
I tightened my arms around him. Itwouldbe pleasure with him. He would stop if I told him to. He would never push me. I was sure of that. It only took me a whole day to understand I could have him even if I was upset, even after I’d told him to leave.
“Would you like a cool bath?” Lev asked.
Lev giving me a bath seemed like too much, almost more intimate than sex. “I couldn’t ask that.”
“Of course you can. Pre-care, during-care, aftercare are all important parts of therapy. We—I teach how to give it and receive it.
“I’ve already had a shower.”
“This is not a shower.”
I grinned though he couldn’t see it. “I’m already wet.”
“Hmm.”
“Oh! I didn’t mean it that way. I mean I did, but also I’ve been submerged in water a lot today, swimming and two showers. I just had a shower before you came here.”
“Later then.” He rubbed at my naked back.
Currents of longing and need surged through my body. I wasn’t sure if I was better being held or not touched. So many feelings awoke in me. I was so alive.
A huge wave of arousal flooded me again and I couldn’t help but arch in Lev’s arms.
“That is called the omega heat agitation,” he said.
My whole body tensed. My throat closed for a few seconds, then opened so I could catch my breath.
Softly, “It’s when the cells of the locus coeruleus in the brain become overly active in heat, maintaining arousal beyond just being, uh, horny.”
He made me smile again, right in the middle of what felt like a contraction of sexual pleasure.
“I want to—I want to—”
“It can cause omega bodies to squirm,” Lev said. “They wish to assume the position best for breeding.”
I had been in one of the breeding positions earlier. Not that I could make use of that position. Ever.
“Do you want to move and stretch?” he asked.
“Yes.”
He loosened his arms and let me go.
I crawled partly away from him, though his legs and mine still touched. I rolled onto my stomach and stretched and for a moment everything felt right. My skin, bones, muscles—my whole body—seemed to take a breath.
