They shook their head, a soft smile tilting their lips. “You’re too genuine for this world, sunshine.”
“Is that so bad?” I asked, leaning into their touch. Their tentacles wrapped idly around my legs, offering lazy caresses. A shiver ran through me at how much I loved the possessive touches. I’d been starved for so long that I soaked up every ounce of what they gave.
“Not at all,” they said, their voice low. “You’re rare, Elrich.” They heaved a breath. “Are you serious about wanting this for as long as we can?”
“Yes,” I said at once. “I…fuck, there’s nothing between Arielle and me. Not like this. And I don’t even want to get married to her.”
Something complicated crossed Ursuline’s features, but they smoothed out. “I have a request.”
“Anything,” I said, desperate for whatever they’d give me.
They shook their head and brushed their thumb over my lower lip. “None of that, sunshine. You need to listen to the request before you agree. You’re allowed your own wants, your own dislikes, your own desires. You can always say no with me.”
My eyes burned, and a few tears slipped down my cheeks.
They shook their head, their expression pained. “Your family never gave you options, did they?”
I hadn’t realized how much their mandates had destroyed me over the years until Ursuline offered me choice. Until I started to claim what I wanted in turn.
They brushed away the tears on my cheeks, the touch firm and a balm to my battered soul.
“While I have you, I want you to be mine, and mine alone,” they said. I opened my mouth, but they slipped their thumb inside, and I sucked automatically. A shiver raced through me at how even that made my mind fuzz over. “I want you knowing every second of the day who this belongs to.” They reached down and cupped my cock, and lust pulsed through me fast and fierce. “I want to lock you up.”
My brows drew together, even as I continued to suck their thumb, not wanting to let go of the comfort.
“With a cock cage, sunshine. So the only person who decides when you get to use it, when you get to come, is me.”
Oh fuck.
Heat roared through me in such a blinding torrent I almost buckled. Thankfully their tentacles coiled around my legs, keeping me upright. I sucked even harder on their thumb, as if it could communicate how badly I wanted that. My cock stiffened, the length tenting the fabric of my pants.
They caressed it with their hand, and I continued to suck on their thumb, loving the way they teased me. How they instinctively seemed to understand what I needed most. One of their tentacles around my leg inched farther up, until it slid between my cheeks, the thin fabric of my pants the only barrier.
“Someone likes that idea, don’t they?” Ursuline purred as they continued to rub their tentacle between my cheeks, the brush against my hole making me whimper. Saliva gushed into my mouth, and all too fast I vaulted back to yesterday, to being overtaken by them. And the idea of my cock being caged during that? Of being helpless to do anything while they penetrated me over and over again? I incinerated at the mere thought.
They withdrew their thumb and stopped stroking my cock. A second later, their tentacle slid back down around my thigh again. I sagged forward, my forehead resting on their chest. They carded their fingers through my hair, and another shiver coursed down my spine.
“Words, sunshine,” they said.
“Yes, please.” My words were muffled from where my face pressed against their chest, but I didn’t care. “I want you to lock me up.”
“How are you so perfect?” they wondered aloud. The praise filtered through me, like effervescent bubbles.
“When will you do it?” I asked, pulling my head up to face them.
A wicked grin transformed their features, and the breath snagged in my throat. “I brought a cage with me. I want you reminded every second of the day who you truly belong to.”
My heart lodged in my throat. That was what I longed for. The idea of marrying Arielle at this point made me sick, but I wasn’t sure how to get out of my predicament. Yet Ursuline was willing to be with me regardless. Was willing to make me theirs for whatever time we had.
They reached down and tugged at my cock. “This will be an issue, though. You need to be soft to fit into the cage.” They brought out the cage they’d tucked in their pocket, a metal contraption that looked like it would be a tight fit. If anything, the sight made my cock harder. “Need some help, sunshine?”
I bobbed my head and wet my lower lip.
“Ditch the pants,” they said, taking a step back. “And hands by your sides after.”
I obeyed at once, tugging my pants down and kicking them off. My cock jutted out, hard, flushed, and red, a drop of pre-cum beading on the tip. My insides simmered with excitement at what was to come. I’d never even thought of anyone locking my cock away, but having a steady reminder it belonged to Ursuline? Heat roared through me.
One of their tentacles wrapped around my length, smooth and thick. Their mating tentacle hovered over it and squirted a bit of that slick. It twined around me, enveloping my cock entirely. They tugged at my cock with their tentacle, the suckers rubbing along the skin sending shivers through me. The slick started to disperse along my length, making the glide so delicious I was delirious. There was no way I’d last long, not with their tentacle strangling my cock like this. I was going to come, but after? I’d be locked away until they decided upon the next time.
