Tell me to.
A muscle twitched in Apollo’s jaw. Make it tighter, Temperance.
She made it tighter.
It wasn’t difficult to do; all it took was a simple intention in her mind and Tem watched as the ring drew taut around the base of his cock. Apollo’s hands gripped her hips so hard that it hurt.
Why not take it one step further?
Tem knew there was one more thing she could do to push him over the edge. She concentrated on the ring, focusing on her connection to it before sending Apollo a pulse just like the ones Caspen sent her. Apollo’s reaction was immediate. A shudder passed through him, and he groaned.
Where did you learn to do that?
Caspen taught me.
Kora.
Almost against his will, Apollo leaned forward and kissed her neck. The moment he made contact, Tem bit her lip in order to hold back a moan. Immediately, he berated her.
Stop that.
Stop what?
Hiding your pleasure.
But it was her instinct to hide from Apollo. She didn’t want him to see her pleasure. Perhaps she thought he didn’t deserve to see her that way-or perhaps she was embarrassed, somehow, that he was capable of calling such pleasure forth. Whatever the reason, Tem hid from him.
I can’t help it.
Yes, you can. You are resisting me.
That, at least, was true. Tem was resisting him, although resistance was rapidly proving futile.
Let me take care of you.
Tem couldn’t imagine Apollo taking care of her in any way, shape, or form. I doubt you’re capable of that.
I assure you, I am.
Still, she resisted.
Your reservation is endearing.
And your arrogance is infuriating.
Do not pretend you do not like it.
I don’t like it. She could barely think the words, the lie giving her discomfort.
Lying is a sin, Temperance.
Don’t talk to me about sins.
Would you rather I perform them instead?
The answer was yes, of course. But she didn’t dare say it.
Apollo’s hand reached for Tem’s. Out of instinct, she jerked away, and he raised his eyebrows in concern. Tem hadn’t meant to do that-it was simply her natural reaction to someone trying to grab her. She couldn’t even justify it; they’d just obliterated every barrier between them, and she had nothing more to hide. But for some reason, it felt like what they were about to do was more intimate than what they’d just done, like they were about to cross an unspoken line. Tem wasn’t sure if she was truly ready for that.
Apollo didn’t say a word-didn’t try to coerce her. Instead, he leaned in slowly and pressed a single, tender kiss to her cheek. At the gesture, something inside Tem unwound. It was a reminder: Apollo was telling her that she was safe with him. It was a sentiment she knew but had trouble believing. His lips skimmed gently along her jaw and down her neck. Tem could feel his mind, open and unguarded, filled with attentive care. She wondered briefly if it was all for show. Did Apollo only lower his defenses when he wanted something from her? Tem decided it didn’t matter. He had earned her trust tonight.
Then his lips were on hers.
After that, time ceased to exist. Apollo’s hands were on Tem’s hips, guiding her over the length of his cock. He didn’t penetrate her-she wasn’t ready for that yet. Instead she pleasured herself on his shaft, rubbing her most-sensitive area along his, teasing herself while she teased him. It was primal and it was simple and it felt good. Every time she reached the base, the claw and the ring pressed together, creating an unimaginable sensation. Tem thrust her hips, desperate to feel as much of it as possible.
Apollo was even more turned on than Tem. His presence engulfed her mind, surrounding her from all angles, holding her in place both physically and mentally. He pressed his lips once more to her throat.
How can you feel this good when I am not even inside you?
You feel good too.
Apollo’s teeth found her earlobe, and he bit it.
She squirmed, and he only held her tighter.
Come for me.
She would. But not yet. Tem slowed her motions, sliding herself tantalizingly along his shaft before stopping at the tip, the full length of his cock between them. Her eyes flicked to his.
Say please.
An order. Tem wasn’t used to giving those to Apollo-wasn’t used to making him beg her for anything. But she was in the mood to test his limits tonight.
Please.
Tem smiled.
His reward was a single flick of her hips. Then she stopped again. Apollo growled with displeasure at her delay. But Tem would not be rushed. She was building to it, enjoying the feel of him between her legs, unwilling to let this be over so quickly.
I want to take my time.
Is that so?
Yes. And you want to let me.
Do I? And why is that?
Because you like this. And you like me. And you want to watch me get there on my own. Don’t you?
They stared at each other in the darkness, their breathing uneven.
Yes. I do.
Apollo’s chest was dappled with sweat, and Tem leaned forward, placing her tongue between his pectorals and sliding it up to his neck. His hands cupped her ass as she did it, pulling her completely against him. The moment her clitoris pressed against the ring, she sent a pulse, stimulating them both.
My brother does not know how lucky he is. You are unbelievable.
Trust me. He knows.
Apollo groaned, pulled her face up to his, and kissed her.
