Because in the front of his underwear was a thick ridge. I pulled, he lifted the waistband over his penis, and helped me slide them down far enough he could kick them off - but my eyes hung on what I'd just revealed.
Penis. Dick. Cock. Member. I'd heard a dozen phrases for the thing, but I'd only ever had one drunken view of one, and not this one. Kanik was a Dragon, and his flesh was covered in scales, but not this part. The colors were similar to his body, but the texture was soft, smooth, and different than I'd expected.
"I won't stop you from touching it," he said, sounding a little amused.
"Am I going to hurt you?"
"No," he said around a chuckle. "Might make me moan. It feels a lot like having a mouth between your legs."
So, timidly I trailed the tips of my fingers down the length of him. The size of it was shocking, although I wasn't sure if that was normal or not. It just seemed like more than I'd expected. I also couldn't pull my eyes away from it, and when the thing bounced in response to my touch, I wanted to make it do that again.
"Like this," he said, curling my fingers around his shaft and guiding them lower. "That feels..." He paused for a second, then let out a breath. "Very good."
So I did it again, and this time Kanik caught the back of my head, dragging my mouth to his so he could kiss me hard. I kept touching him, moving my hand against the silky skin I'd been too scared to enjoy before - until he caught my wrist.
"My turn," he breathed, moving me higher so he could put his mouth on my breast. One hand clasped my waist harder than he ever had before. The other tormented my other nipple until I couldn't think. I wanted more. I wanted him lower, and yet he refused to lift his back from the blankets we were on, so I tried to tug him to me again.
He chuckled, letting go of my breast in the process - and then tugged me over him instead. "You say you know how this works," he taunted. "Now you're the one in control, Ayla. Do with me as you will."
"I don't know..."
"You don't have to," he assured me.
"No!" I hissed, settling my knees around his hips. "Kanik, I don't know how."
So he reached down to clasp himself. "This goes inside you. It will feel big. You can take your time. You do not have to do any of this."
But I could see his chest moving with his breaths. He wasn't quite panting, but he was breathing harder. My pulse was pounding, but there was no fear. This? It was excitement.
"What if I do it wrong?" I asked.
His hand shifted, cupping me, and two fingers slid lower. "Oh, I don't think there's a 'wrong' here, Ayla." His hand pausedthere. "If you want sex, then you want that in here." And he pushed his fingers gently into my body.
My head leaned back, my eyes slipped closed, and I felt this man inside me. Not the part I'd expected, and I couldn't feel his nails at all, but the fullness was alluring. The pressure made me want more, but before I could even find words to explain it, he slid his hand back out.
But I wanted it. I needed to know where that sensation led me. I was done with being scared of this, and Kanik had provenhimself so many times, which meant I had no reason to hold back now.
Shifting my hips, I leaned forward, trying to line myself up by feel, but Kanik's hand was there, helping. When the tip of his penis touched me in the right spot, I bent my knees - and felt resistance.
"Slow," he breathed. "You do not have to power through everything, Ayla." Then he sat up.
I had to clasp his shoulders to keep from being knocked over, but he wrapped an arm around my back. Chest to chest, this amazing man met my eyes, then closed the distance to kiss me again.
That was all I needed. His mouth devoured mine, and my knees relaxed. Slowly, I felt him filling me, stretching me. When it pinched, I stopped, and Kanik never tried to rush me. Again, then again, I lifted up and took a little more, sliding further down him each time until I found myself sitting on him completely.
"Does it hurt?" he asked before kissing me again.
"No," I breathed.
His mouth moved to the spot under my ear. "Good, because that was the hard part. This? This is the part that feels good."
And he shifted his hips, driving himself higher into me. I could feel him moving inside me. I knew this meant I was no longer a virgin, but where was the pain? Everyone said the first time hurt!
"Ayla," Kanik said, snapping my thoughts back to the present. "We can stop here."
"No," I begged. "It... it didn't hurt."
"Itshouldn'thurt," he reminded me. "And you're allowed to move too."
