“Have sex. Obviously you want to.”
“Obviously not.”
Apollo only laughed. “You are a terrible liar, Temperance.”
That was not Tem’s concern right now. Right now, she was fighting to stay upright-even leaning against Apollo took too much effort. She was so, so turned on. All her mind could think about was sex. Sex with Apollo, sex with Leo-it didn’t matter who. The air around her seemed to vibrate with anticipation. It was unbearable.
“It is customary, you know.” Apollo’s voice came to her through the haze.
“What is?”
“To have sex after petrification.”
She could barely hear him.
“Required, in fact.”
“Required?”
“Well, not technically. But you must climax.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, can you not feel the urge?”
Tem could feel the urge, all right. It was tearing her apart. “Yes,” she said through gritted teeth. “I feel it.”
“You must satisfy it.”
“What will happen if I don’t?”
He shrugged. “You may find it difficult to come in the future.”
“Difficult?”
“Yes.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“It means that if you do not come now, it will cause a…barrier for all future climaxes.”
“All future climaxes?”
“Yes.”
“As in, I won’t be able to come ever again?”
“That is correct.”
“Why didn’t you tell me this before?”
“I thought you knew.”
“How would I know that?”
Apollo was only becoming more amused as this conversation went on. “Surely, my brother told you.”
“He didn’t even want to teach me how to petrify in the first place. You think he told me the details of what happens after you do it?”
“Clearly he did not.”
“Clearly.”
Apollo leaned in, and Tem nearly blacked out at his scent. “And here I was thinking you had propositioned our little outing because you knew what would happen after.”
“You think I asked you to teach me how to petrify because I wanted to have sex with you?”
“I had rather hoped.”
“Kora.”
It was all she could say. It took supreme effort to speak.
Tem had no idea whether what Apollo said was true. The thought of never coming again seemed impossible, especially for a basilisk. But at this point, it was irrelevant. The throbbing between her legs was beyond what she could bear. She felt like water on the brink of boil. If she didn’t come soon, she was going to cry.
“Shall I assist?” Apollo asked. She hated how happy he sounded.
“No.”
“Are you sure? I can bring you to climax.”
Tem snorted. “I can do that myself.”
“I have no doubt you can. But I can do it better. And faster.”
“I don’t need your help.”
“I see. In that case”-he stepped back, extracting his body from hers-“proceed.”
Anger joined her arousal. Apollo knew how Tem was feeling right now-he knew how cruel it was to taunt her.
“You’re going to watch?”
“Do not pretend you would not like that.”
Tem would like that. There was no way around it. The thought of touching herself in front of Apollo was thrilling. She’d done it before, after all, and she’d certainly liked it then. But they’d been in the banquet hall, surrounded by people, with Caspen overseeing it all. Anything could happen here in this field, alone.
“Don’t you need to do it too?” Tem said through gritted teeth.
“Are you asking me to join?”
“No. I’m asking you to explain why you aren’t feeling the way I am right now.”
“I am feeling the way you are right now. But I am much older than you. I have petrified a thousand times, and I know how to handle the urge.”
Tem ignored him. He was teasing her, but there was no time to be embarrassed. All that mattered was relieving the sensation in her center. Yet despite the all-encompassing urge to climax, she couldn’t seem to do it. Her mind was foggy, her vision blurred. She couldn’t form a coherent thought, much less move her fingers between her legs to touch herself. It was almost as if the more she needed it, the less her body retained the ability to accomplish it.
“Let me help, Temperance.”
“No.”
