She kissed me.
She really kissed me on the cheek.
And… my cock was going to uncoil, and I would have a bulge the rest of the day.
Maybe that would keep me from falling down, just fall on my dick, and it would keep me upright.
Kassie inhaled deeply, and a scent like honey and warm spice, along with that natural orange scent she had, filled the space between us. My muscles tensed as if struck by lightning, and something primal vibrated in my throat—a steady, involuntary drone that I couldn't silence.
Something had shifted in Kassie. Her gaze grew heavy-lidded, her chest rising with each breath as she leaned in close enough that the heat from her skin radiated against mine. The space between us seemed to vanish, and I wished this moment would stretch into eternity.
Kassie nuzzled her face into the crook of my neck, inhaling deeply. "There's something about your scent," she murmured against my skin. "It smells so good."
I felt my eyes grow wide as I dragged my palm nervously down the front of my shirt. Meanwhile, Kassie's fingers inched their way up my leg, sending a violent tremor through me when they brushed against the straining fabric at my crotch.
Her eyes widened as her fingers traced circles on my inner thigh. "My goodness, Atlas," she whispered, her voice husky. "Is this shyness just for show?" I couldn't stop the ragged breath that escaped my lips as I curved my arm around her waist, drawing her body against mine.
Night, she felt so good against me.
I wanted to rut her into the bed, take her smaller form and insert my cock, let her feel every coil until it took hold of her womb.
Breed her.
Something wasn't adding up. Last night she'd been careful, considerate—keeping to her side of the bed, making sure I felt safe. Her hands were everywhere, her breath hot against my neck, her body pressing against mine like she couldn't get close enough. This wasn't just flirting. This was something else entirely.
Not that I minded, but…
Pheromones.
Moths can have pheromones, so why not Mothmen?
My chest tightened with alarm as her scent overwhelmed my senses. Every instinct screamed at me to drop to my knees, toexplore the sweetness between her thighs with slow, deliberate strokes of my tongue.
I had to leave.
I had to get this under control.
“Kassie?” I breathed. “I must go.” Her hand was on my thigh, so I grabbed it and pulled it off. I tried to hold back the whining cry, as my moth instincts told me to take her.
My scent was driving her to the brink, where she couldn’t think for herself. It wasn’t fair to her, no matter how much I wanted her.
I wasn’t sure if she even wanted me that much… truly.
I mean, look at me?
Kassie pouted. Her thighs rubbed together to bring more of that sweet scent to my nose. My tongue fell out of my mouth and licked my lips.
“Don’t you want to stay a little longer?” She panted. “I’ll miss you today.”
Moon, you punish me.
“I want that more than anything.” I held her hand to my chest. “But there are things I must do. I need to prepare.”
Kassie tilted her head. “If you are worried about trimming up the garden, I don’t mind. I was a Peonie Girl Scout in middle school.” Her free hand squeezed my chest muscle.
What?
“I got my Explorer badge.”
