Gods, he looked incredible in this position. The sunlight cut in through the windows and coated his bronze skin, making him glow the same way he did when we took our Elementals out the other day. He was literally glittering, like a kaleidoscope, and his eyes illuminated the room with their intense and rich gold. Every curve in his muscles held sweat he had worked up, so they glistened brightly. I ran my fingertips over them, memorizing every ident in his body as if I’d never touch it again.

He laid across me, pulling my legs closed behind his back, before moving back to my ear. “Gods, you’re so fucking beautiful.”

“Odysseus, I-…?” I gasped out, unable to find the words.

“Don’t tell me you’re at your limit?” he chuckled, though his hand still moved to pleasure me. I spasmed, as I was too close for that kind of touching, but he didn’t seem to care. “Make a mess all over me. Then we can take this to the showers.”

“Please stop talking…!” I groaned out, though in reality, I could listen to his dirty talk all day and night.

“Then do as you’re told,” he growled with a lustful nip to my bottom lip.

And I sure as fuck did.

I came so hard that I was basically convulsing, my body locked in a tightly wound arch as I rocked through the orgasm. Odysseus leaned back so he could watch and help me through it, and once I was finally finished, I fell into the sheets, completely spent. “Fuck… me…” I choked out, “that was amazing.”

“Fuck you? I can do that.”

“Wait, wait!”

“Nope, too late.” He truly didn’t give a damn about the mess I had made of us both and instead went back to thrusting into me as deeply as he could. I threw my head back and clamped both hands on my mouth, letting out much-deserved screams into them that I simply could not hold back anymore. This made him crack that stupid smile again and move even faster.

Chapter sixteen

Seeing the Other Side

Nicodemus

The room perfumed with cigarette smoke. After that incredibly intense sex, I simply could not go without one and smoked it slow under the now setting sun. Odysseus had worn himself out good and was passed out against my chest. We had luckily showered before he crashed, so the sheets survived our afternoon escapade. I was glad he was asleep, as he didn’t approve of the bad habits I’d picked up on Earth, but that was neither here nor there. I listened to the sounds of birds singing just beyond our open window, as they were settling down for the night as well. Their songs filled me with a peace I hadn’t felt in quite some time, and I found myself lost in the sound.

As I finished the cigarette and went for another, an odd sight caught my eye. Just beyond the main courtyard, Dad was shuffling up the walkway with his hands in his pockets. He wore a button up, black fitted pants, and dress shoes, an outfit usually only worn to class. Outside of his teacher-attire, I expected himin long-sleeved shirts and sweatpants or jeans, so this was very outside his norm. His eyes were glued to the pavement he raced down, though when he reached the fountain, he brought them up to check his watch.

“What are you up to, old man?” I whispered to myself, sitting up a little to watch him better.

Claude whisked into the room, jumping backwards in shame. “Whoa! I did not mean to interrupt!”

“You already missed the fun,” I chuckled, thankful we had the blanket over our waists. He whacked the side of my head for the comment before following my gaze. I nodded to Dad through the window Claude knelt beside. “There seems to be something even more entertaining happening outside.”

“What the heck is he up to at this hour?” he breathed, mostly to himself.

“You should go find out,” I whistled, though he knew this was meant as a command.

He slapped his hands to his face and spoke into them, “It’s always Claude! Claude this, Claude that. Go get caught by your boss and get sent to Gehenna, Claude! Nicodemus doesn’t care, because he can summon ten more Shadow Walkers to replace you with!” he pouted with a heavy frown.

I rolled my eyes heavily. “Har, har, moron. Would you just go investigate?”

“Yeah, yeah.” He dissipated and reappeared behind the fountain as I flashed black eyes, so our consciousness would become one. I told him to position himself better so we wouldn’t be caught, and once he was curled up in a ball, our stealth mission began. “Is this good?”

“Yes. Keep your head down while I get changed and I’ll join you.” I changed one eye back to my normal sight so I could die out my cigarette and slide out from under Odysseus.

He let out a moan and clung to my chest, burying his face into my skin. “Where are you going...?” he mumbled out.

“I need to check on something with my dad. I'll be back before you know it.”

“Stay with me...” he adorably commanded, peering at me with one eye.

I tsked and slid his face up to plant delicate kisses across the corner of his mouth. “I promise, I'm yours tonight. Just give me a few to figure out what’s going on.”

“Is it serious? Should I come, too?” he asked, more awake now.
