Hesitantly, Cullen nodded, still gasping softly against his throat.

“Did you like it?”

He nodded again, grinning like an idiot.

“Good.” Leviathan purred, turning his face to kiss his neck. When Cullen gasped softly, Leviathan chuckled andshifted forward, turning to lower him to an invisible ledge under the surface of the pool. Cullen let go of him with a small frown, his eyes widening as Leviathan moved to stand in front of him.

“The fear in your eyes is lovely.” The demon lord in front of him murmured, his hand coming up to brush his cheek. “But don’t worry, pet. I won’t push you too far tonight.” He shifted as he spoke, his body morphing back into that smaller, more human form. Cullen exhaled shakily, both relieved and disappointed as he stepped closer. Leviathan smiled, his thumb tracing over Cullen’s lower lip before he lowered himself, moving to kneel in front of him. Cullen started, his eyes widening as Leviathan sank lower in the pool, the blood coming up to his collarbone. He gave him a small, wicked smile, and then sank under the surface, his hands coming down on Cullen’s hips to draw him closer.

Cullen drew in a shaky breath, his throat giving a hard bob as Leviathan trailed slow kisses up his thigh, lingering there until he squirmed–

His head tipped back with a soft moan when Leviathan finally took him into his mouth, his hands hovering shakily over the surface of the pool.

Leviathan circled his tongue around his tip, the blood making him slip along his skin in a way that had Cullen darting his hands forward, finding his hair under the surface to tug at it. A soft vibration shot down his cock, making him gasp and moan, his hands tightening in Leviathan’s hair. He moaned around him again and took him in deep, his hands clenching down hard on his thighs. Cullen drew in a sharp breath and raised his hips, pumping slowly into his mouth.

When Leviathan made no objection, he did it again, pushing his head down at the same time to bury himself deep. A weak, strangled groan left him. His throat ached asthe sound tore free, as if Leviathan’s grip had been imprinted there. He hoped it had. Hoped he would always feel that delicious ache and taste the blood that flowed in this bath–

He shuddered, coming undone without warning. He felt Leviathan freeze in surprise and felt his face begin to burn before he even came up out of the pool. He might have lost himself in that embarrassment, might have run away and hid himself in that giant gossamer-shrouded bed for the night, but the sight of Leviathan emerging, covered in red blood that gleamed as it ran in shiny rivulets down his body had him frozen, his eyes wide and embarrassment forgotten.

A dark god.A quiet voice whispered in his head.A dark god in all his glory.

“Hell,” Leviathan chuckled as he pushed his wet hair back from his face with one smooth move. “Who knew you were such a quick–”

Cullen tackled him, his mouth coming down on his as they stumbled back and fell into the dark pool.

Blood flowed over them, drenching them both and flooding their mouths as they kissed. Cullen moaned, shivering as he was plunged into that heavy darkness, and Leviathan’s soft grip turned hard, his hands tugging him closer and closer, his nails sharpening to claws and raking down his back.

Vicious heat tore through him in response, his hands moving from Leviathan’s hair down to his waist. He squeezed him there and felt Leviathan cock throb in response. That soul link between them flared brighter, letting him see that Leviathan liked being touched that way, liked beinghandled. It made him brave.

Brave enough to slip his hands down and grab his thighs as he pushed them back up to the surface.

They were still kissing when they broke it, Leviathan’s tongue hot in his mouth, iron and salt mixing with the taste of him. Cullen moaned and spun them around, pressing Leviathan back against the jagged ledge of the pool before he lifted him and set him on it. Leviathan poured a moan into his mouth and laid back, his hand curling up into his hair to draw him down with him.

Cullen nudged his thighs apart, groaning when their erections rubbed together. Leviathan’s hand ran down his back, pressing him down against him, and Cullen gasped, his hips giving a slow pump forward that made them rub together again. He did it once more, dragging another moan from Leviathan, and then they were lost in each other again, kissing and clawing until Cullen shifted and gave a hard thrust, forcing his way inside of him.

Leviathan broke away with a cry, his eyes popping wide, but Cullen didn’t pause. Couldn’t have if he’d wanted to. He was already moving, his cock wrapped in delicious warmth, and his mouth against Leviathan’s throat, swallowing his racing heartbeat. Leviathan began to tremble under him, his hands moving in his hair and down his back, leaving deep scratches that had Cullen’s teeth coming down on his throat. His thrusts grew faster and deeper with each painful grasp of Leviathan’s fingers, the pain spurring him on until he had Leviathan gasping and moaning under him, his body arching up against him and his legs hooking over his waist to pull him deeper.

His ass squeezed around him and Cullen groaned, his hand dropping to his thigh to lift his leg higher, his grip clenching on him as pleasure shot down his spine. Leviathan whimpered in an astonishingly needy way, his head falling back as his breaths cut off and his ass clenched around him. Cullen watched him with wide eyes, his jaw clenching as heshuddered apart with him, his hips stuttering with a hard jerk before he began to move again, his movements slow and gentle now.

Leviathan was gasping under him, shock and pleasure spread across his face. Cullen could sense the embarrassment in him–and the desire that still rocked his body and had his mind a mess.

If Cullen didn’t know better, he might have thought…

“Was that your first time?” He demanded, shock shooting through him. “Doing it like that?”

Leviathan hesitated, his throat giving a slow bob. “Possibly.” He whispered finally, his eyes falling away from his face.

Cullen stared at him for a long moment and then pressed his face to his throat, hiding the snicker that popped free of him.

“Shut up, brat.” He hissed, wriggling under him. Cullen pressed closer, not letting him move away. “I threw you a boon because we had a fight, that’s all.”

“So every time we fight you’re going to let me do this?” He murmured, giving his hips another slow pump. Leviathan flinched.

“No.”

“I think yes.” He started to move again. “We disagree. So that means we’re fighting, right?”

“Cullen…” He trailed off with a soft moan, his legs tightening around his hips. “Stop…”
