after the fight ;
The night air was thick with the scent of pine and magic. Kai stood, heart pounding, sweat cooling on his skin. The fight had been intense, and his magic still buzzed at his fingertips. But it wasn't fear that made his hands shake—it was Lucien.
The Alpha stood across the clearing, chest rising and falling. His eyes glowed gold, lips parted, looking like a predator ready to pounce. "I didn't mean to lose control," Kai said, his voice barely a whisper.
Lucien stepped forward, slow and steady. "You think that's what I'm worried about?" His voice was low, rough. "I saw your power. It was beautiful."
Kai's back hit a tree, his body too warm, too sensitive. "I almost hurt you."
"You didn't," Lucien replied, closing the distance between them. "You called me. Every spark of your magic pulled me in like gravity."
Kai's breath caught as Lucien's heat engulfed him. "I can feel your heat," Lucien whispered, eyes dark. "You're flushed. Shaking. Do you even know what you're doing to me?"
Kai tried to speak, but his throat was dry. His body knew what it wanted before his mind did—he wanted Lucien. Needed him.
"Tell me to stop," Lucien growled, voice strained.
Kai didn't say anything.
That was enough.
Lucien crashed into him, lips fierce and claiming. The kiss was all teeth, tongue, and desperation. Kai's hands clawed at Lucien's shirt, gripping his shoulders, holding tight.
Lucien groaned into his mouth. "You taste like fire."
He kissed down Kai's throat, biting gently, dragging his mouth over the skin. Kai's head fell back against the tree, a moan slipping free. Lucien's hands moved under his shirt, fingers tracing the lines of his stomach.
"You're burning up," Lucien muttered, pulling the shirt over Kai's head. "Let me cool you down... or heat you up more."
His lips found Kai's chest—licking across skin, teasing one nipple with his tongue, then biting lightly until Kai gasped and arched into him.
"More," Kai whispered, shameless.
Lucien lifted him up, Kai wrapping his legs around the Alpha's waist. He walked them a few feet before laying him down on the soft grass, under the trees, the stars above them burning just as hot.
He undressed him slowly, like he was savoring every inch. Kai's breath quickened with every touch—his chest, his thighs, his hips.
Lucien leaned over him, eyes molten. "You're perfect," he whispered. "You don't even know what you do to me."
Kai reached for him, fingers tracing Lucien's chest, dragging down his stomach. "Then show me."
Lucien didn't need to be told twice.
He kissed down Kai's body, worshipping every inch. His mouth was hot and teasing—pressing into the softest spots, licking over his chest again, swirling his tongue until Kai cried out. He nipped at his sides, then moved lower, trailing heat along his skin.
Kai was writhing now, his hands in Lucien's hair, his body trembling with want. The bond between them was humming, wrapping around them like threads of gold. Every touch sent sparks across his skin.
"Lucien," he breathed.
Lucien looked up, his lips shiny, his eyes full of fire. "You're not just mine," he whispered. "I'm yours too."
And then he kissed him again, slow and deep, like he wanted to memorize every sound Kai made.
Their bodies moved together, tangled in heat and hunger. Lucien flipped Kai over, positioning him on all fours. He spread Kai's legs, licking his way up his inner thighs.
"You taste like sin," Lucien growled, his tongue darting out to tease Kai's asshole.
Kai moaned, pushing back against him. "Fuck, Lucien, don't tease."
Lucien chuckled, low and dangerous. He spit on his fingers, rubbing them against Kai's entrance before pushing one in. "Relax, I'm going to make you feel so good."
Kai groaned, his body adjusting to the intrusion. Lucien added another finger, scissoring them inside him. Kai's breath hitched, his body clenching around Lucien's fingers.
"You ready for me?" Lucien asked, his voice a growl.
"Yes," Kai panted. "Please, Lucien."
Lucien removed his fingers, replacing them with the head of his cock. He pushed in slowly, giving Kai time to adjust. Kai's breath came in short gasps, his body burning with need.
Lucien started to move, his hips thrusting in a rhythm that had Kai seeing stars. "You feel so fucking good," Lucien groaned. "Your ass is gripping my cock so tight."
Kai pushed back against him, meeting his thrusts. "Harder, Lucien. Fuck me harder."
Lucien complied, his thrusts becoming rougher, deeper. Kai moaned with every thrust, his body on fire with pleasure.
Lucien leaned over him, his hands gripping Kai's hips. He bit down on Kai's earlobe, sending a jolt of pleasure through him. "You're mine, Kai. All mine."
Kai nodded, his breath coming in short gasps. "Yes, Lucien. Only yours."
Lucien's thrusts became faster, his breathing ragged. Kai could feel his orgasm building, his body tightening with anticipation.
"Cum inside me," Kai begged. "Fill me up, Lucien."
Lucien groaned, his body shuddering. "Fuck, Kai. You're going to make me cum."
Kai's body tensed as his orgasm hit, his back arching as pleasure rolled through him. Lucien followed him over the edge, his cock pulsing as he came inside Kai.
They collapsed together, their bodies slick with sweat. Lucien pulled Kai into his arms, their bodies still tangled. He kissed his temple, breathing hard.
"I've never felt anything like that," he whispered. "You've ruined me."
Kai smiled weakly, curling into his chest. "Good."
And under the stars, with his heartbeat slowing, Kai let himself believe in something tender, something true.
