A frustrated little sound escaped from the back of Kefir’s throat, but that seemed to make no difference to Ellery.
Years turned into decades before Ellery finally began to move.He pushed forward slowly.Kefir gasped as he felt Ellery’s cock stretch him open.He whimpered at the unfamiliar sensation, even as he tried to squirm back and get more of it.
“Hush.”Ellery stroked his hand against Kefir’s side as he whispered the words into his ear.
“I—”
“You will do as you’re told,” Ellery cut in.The words were still whispered, but there was no arguing with the strength behind them.
Kefir let his eyes drop closed.All that existed was Ellery.All he wanted was his pet.And, as he felt their bodies come together for the first time, he could barely breathe for the sheer bliss that flooded through his veins.
He reached back, desperate to feel Ellery’s skin under his hands, but Ellery caught his wrist and pinned it to the bed in front of him instead.
Kefir nibbled at his bottom lip as he realised that Ellery must have seen his claws creep out after all.He knew he should explain, that he should try to reassure his pet that he was safe.But, then, it didn’t matter why Ellery thought that Kefir’s hand needed to be held down, because he rolled both their bodies forward so Ellery was half on top of him.His weight pressed Kefir down against the blankets as his cock settled even more deeply inside him.
Kefir purred.That was even better, and when Ellery rolled him completely onto his stomach and he found himself entirely trapped beneath Ellery’s much larger frame, it became perfect.
Ellery rocked his hips, slowly at first, as if determined to ensure Kefir felt every single inch of his cock.Then faster, making Kefir desperate for more friction, more speed, more everything.The bedding rubbed against Kefir’s dick as he rocked in time with Ellery’s thrusts.
Kefir pushed back against Ellery, trying to complement his movements, eager to offer his pet anything and everything he could think of as instincts he hadn’t been aware that he possessed started to take hold of him.
Every moment stretched out for a lifetime, but they all still rushed by far too quickly, until Kefir found himself helpless to stop himself falling headlong into more pleasure than he’d ever known to be able to exist inside one small lion.
Ellery thrust harder as Kefir mewed his pleasure against the blanket.He tightened his grip around Kefir’s wrists, until Kefir was sure he’d have left bruises on a human’s skin.Another thrust, another, and Ellery came, thrusting as deep inside Kefir as any man would ever be able to get before gradually letting more and more of his bodyweight rest against Kefir as he finally stilled against him.
Snuggled between Ellery and the mattress with all that strength and weight of pinning him down, and his pet’s cock slowly softening inside him, Kefir purred his delight at this amazing new world he’d stumbled into.
Ellery pulled away as he caught his breath, and Kefir quickly followed him across the bed.Dispensing with the condom, Ellery lay back against the pillows.Kefir immediately moved nearer still, desperate to stay close to his pet.
Reaching out to him, Kefir rested his fingertips gently on Ellery’s arm, showing him that his claws were carefully hidden away now.Ellery seemed a little surprised, but perhaps the sight of entirely human looking nails reassured him, because he welcomed Kefir close.
Kefir smiled as he snuggled against Ellery’s larger frame and quickly felt sleep creep into the corners of his mind.Suddenly, all the fuss the other lions made over their pets made so much more sense.
Chapter Five
Kefir hesitated just outside the kitchen as he heard the sounds of other lions already in there.He loved his pride, he really did, every one of them—even the very annoying ones.But, in that moment, he wasn’t at all inclined to be surrounded by lions.
Stepping in amongst the other members of his pride would have felt far too much like taking a step back to a reality he wasn’t in any way ready to return to.He rocked back on his heels as the temptation to rush back up the stairs, snuggle against his pet and hide under the covers almost got the better of him.
But the coffee was in the kitchen, and he’d promised Ellery that he’d fetch him a mug of it.A lion couldn’t break a promise to his pet.Kefir took a step closer to the kitchen and nudged the door open a little further.The voices morphed from a muted hum into something that could be easily heard and understood.
“Something has to be done!”
Kefir frowned as he peeked past the door.Blaine and Luther stood on the far side of the kitchen.A few of the other members of the pride were there, too, lounging against the wooden cabinets and sitting up on the marble countertops.
One didn’t look too sure.“Maybe we should just let Arslan—”
“Maybe you should grow up and stop expecting Arslan to do everything for you,” Blaine snapped, in a fair imitation of the way Marrick so often spoke to his mates.“The man needs to learn how things have to be between lions and humans.”
“Surely—”
“You know what Kefir’s like!”Luther cut in.
Kefir tilted his head to the side, wondering what it was that his friends thought he was like.
Blaine sighed.“You know Ellery will walk all over him if we let him.There’s no way in hell Kefir can turn him from a sacrifice into a real pet, or a sub or whatever the hell humans want to call them.”
“Arslan will freak,” one of the other members of the pride muttered, shuffling trainer clad feet against the tile floor.
