I sighed. “In the drawer.”

“The nightstand drawer?”

“Yes.”

“Which one?”

“To the left.”

“Whose left?”

“They are the same.” I cocked my head in the correct direction. “It’s in that one.”

He got up and fetched the bottle of lubricant from the drawer, returning to his place behind me immediately. I was pleased he’d remembered lubricant, at least, although I would have stopped him before he got too far had he not.

“Oh, what about a condom? I suppose you don’t need to use one when there’s no worry of pregnancy.”

“Ryan, my dear boy,” I said, resigning myself to giving a lecture about safe sex in the middle of our once-hot encounter, “One is still advised to use condoms even when pregnancy is not a consideration if there’s any concern about sexually transmitted infections.”

“Well, that does make sense.” Based on his tone, I could tell that he was embarrassed at his lapse of judgment.

“But you do not need to use one with me,” I continued.

“Why not?”

I smirked. “Well, dear boy, I’m an angel. Do you really think that an angel could contract a mere human’s disease, or even transmit it between species?”

“I don’t know, and I don’t appreciate your being cute with me. Can they or can’t they?”

“They most certainly cannot. You’re free to use protection if you would like, but trust me, it won’t matter when it comes to safety.”

He took a deep breath, opened the ugly purple tube of lubricant, and got back into the space he’d been in before he remembered the all too unsexy logistics of sex.

It took him only a few more seconds to get situated, and then he was ready. The energy changed the moment he touched me, as if a new sense of confidence had bolstered him. I sucked air sharply into my lungs. The pressure was immediate and immense.

This was an entirely new world for both of us. I hoped that we would have many more long, happy days together like this, but even if we didn’t, I was content to get whatever I got now and enjoy it while it lasted.

RYAN

Ciel’s ass was tight and warm and an entirely different sensation than anything I’d felt before. I reveled in being so close to him. The mere fact that he allowed me to be this intimate was something that I would cherish forever. He made me trust him, but that trust was a two-way street, and he trusted me just as much.

In inserted myself deeper, taking a shaky breath as a shiver ran down my spine. Goosebumps appeared on my arms and I closed my eyes, listening to my heartbeat in the otherwise calming silence of the room.

Ciel wanted me to fuck him until he begged me to stop, but I wasn’t sure if I could do that. Even if a woman had told me that, I didn’t think I was capable of it. But Ciel had so much confidence in me. I couldn’t let him down now.

I allowed myself to pick up my pace, settling into a rhythm that felt good to me. Ciel’s breath, sharp and deliberate, was audible to me now, and it was all I could focus on. Even when he relinquished control, he still found a way to get a modicum of it back.

I thrust a little harder, eliciting a moan from him. That was it. That was what I was looking for. I did it again, though he was more prepared for it this time and barely let out a soft whimper.

I never expected to like it as much as I did. I’d enjoyed my time with Ciel before, but this was different. This was me fucking another man — and enjoying every second of it.

Ciel was enjoying himself, too. I had power over him. Hegaveme that power, sure, but I felt like I’d earned it.

I ran my hands along his back and down the curve of his ass. His skin was smoother than any human’s. He was beautiful, really. I hadn’t thought a man could be beautiful. I hadn’t even thought anyone in the world could bethisbeautiful, but then again, Ciel was always exceeding my expectations.

I didn’t have as much stamina with him as I would have liked, and I could already feel myself approaching climax. I had to slow down if I wanted to extend our night together, but Ciel’s demands had been clear, so I didn’t.
