“A very frisky mood,” he said hoarsely, getting his elbows beneath him so he could watch as Tighe poured a small amount onto the palm of his hand.
Tighe grinned, feeling “frisky” as well. Helovedbeing taken and used, especially the way Silas did it. But Tighe had enjoyed being the one on top the few times he had tried.
“Good.” Tighe coated his fingers, incredibly aroused and fascinated as they swirled around Silas’s hole, getting him slick and causing the puckered flesh to flinch and quiver.
There had been no tender exploration with his pack mates so Tighe was even more grateful to Silas for showing him a different way to find release. Pleasure had always come later and was fleeting, lasting just until Tighe’s partner was finished and withdrew. Sometimes, there were two and the pleasure wasprolonged, but more often than not, Tighe would have to finish alone.
But Silas never rushed and hewantedTighe’s pleasure as much as his own. He took his time and used his lips and fingers to make Tighe frantic before filling him. Then, Silas would be relentless, driving them both to feral ecstasy before claiming every last drop of Tighe’s essence.
That was what Tighe wanted to do so he slowly pressed past the hot, tight ring of Silas’s ass, giving him just a little at a time, twisting and carefully stretching his fingers. He listened to the hitches in Silas’s breathing and his stifled moans, using them as a guide until Tighe was sure he was ready.
With shaking hands, Tighe rubbed the lube onto his cock and scooted forward on his knees. He guided the head to Silas’s hole and they both held their breath as he slid forward. Instead of jumping and gasping in discomfort, Silas gasped Tighe’s name in delight and urged him on.
“You’re so tight!” Tighe had to bite his lip to keep from moaning too loud as his shaft was gripped in heavenly heat. Every slide drew him closer and closer to the glorious frenzy Tighe only found with Silas. He could feel his body growing hotter and his nerves flickering as he fell deeper and deeper into Silas.
“Fuck, that’s so good, Tighe!” Silas whimpered through clenched teeth, then pulled one of the pillows over his face. “Oh, fuck yes!” he cried into it, grabbing Tighe’s thigh with his other hand. “More! Don’t stop!”
The muffled pleas were like dry tinder and Tighe’s control went up in flames. He fell forward, bracing his hands outside Silas’s shoulder and dug in with his knees. His hips pumped faster and faster, creating sharp clapping sounds as they slapped against Silas’s ass.
“Tighe!” Silas jumped, his back arching, and Tighe watched in wonder as cum spilled from his cock, flicking onto his stomach and the bedding.
“I did that!” Tighe laughed as he quickly scooped the puddles off of Silas’s skin and greedily stuck his fingers in his mouth. It only took a few more strokes before he shattered. He came deep in Silas’s ass, the taste of his cum coating Tighe’s tongue, and it was bliss. For Tighe, it was the warmth of a hundred suns on his face and the magical relief of jumping into a cool lake on a sizzling hot day. “Oh, Silas! I love you so much!” he said, falling forward and into Silas’s arms.
They wrapped around him and Silas captured Tighe’s lips for a grateful, sated kiss. “I love you too.”
Neither felt the need to speak after that, content to bask in the peaceful glow as their breathing settled. Tighe didn’t care about where he fell asleep anymore, whether it was in a bed or on the floor. It didn’t matter as long as he could rest his cheek on Silas’s chest and listen to the strong, steady beat of his heart as they drifted off and found each other in their dreams.
Chapter Fifteen
Afew mornings later, drastic measures were taken to keep Tighe entertained while a sensitive discussion took place in the study. He was in the kitchen, helping Everly and Niall supervise a basket of kittens. They were “on loan” from a veterinarian friend but Silas suspected that the four adorable fur balls would be adopted before they left the townhouse.
“I’m rather partial to the black one,” Nox said as they convened in the study and Nelson closed the doors.
Merlin chuckled. “It’s been too long since we’ve had a cat around here. We should keep the little tabby as well, he’ll be a good mouser.”
“Good thinking,” Nox said, smiling at Silas, Arawn, Bryn, and Fletcher before glancing up at the ceiling. “I would appreciate your input as well, Lord Smoak,” he called, then looked toward the corner when a curl of smoke appeared.
“At your service,” he said flatly.
“Thank you,” Nox replied and gestured for him to take a seat but Smoak propped his shoulder against the bookshelf and crossed his arms.
“This is far enough. The guest room isn’t as bad but the rest of the house is intolerable.”
“What doesn’t kill you…” Merlin said sweetly, then turned to Nox. “That reminds me, more rosemary in our smudge sticks!”
Nox tapped his brow and grinned. “Later. Right now, we’re appreciative of Smoak’s cooperation,” he said before holding up his hands. “What’s Dùbhghlas’s next move?” he asked everyone. “I’m concerned about Eoin Ossor but wanted to see if there was more we could be doing to trip Dùbhghlas up or slow him down. I’d like to avoid a confrontation and convince him to forget about Tighe.”
“That’s why you didn’t want him here,” Silas realized and was glad Nox had exercised caution. There was no telling how Tighe would respond if he thought Eoin might be in danger.
“Ahem,” Smoak said as he held up a hand. “Take the fight to him now before he has time to grow any stronger,” he suggested but Nox shook his head.
“That’s what he wants,” he said and Merlin hummed.
“And what Smoak wants. The sooner one of you is out of the way…” he said as he cut his eyes at Smoak but the demon just smiled and shrugged.
“I’mcooperatingbecause it pleases Niall and because it’s the right thing to do, in this instance,” he added with a pained grimace.
“The right thing?” Merlin said with a laugh. “That’s a laugh, coming from you.”
