By now, the smell of blood was thick around them. Kuval had lost track of the amount of bleeding wounds on his own skin, much less the ones he’d caused. The smell of it rose in the air, a completely new sensation to him. It wasn’t dulled by the water, wasn’t just faded taste. No, this was an aroma of wanting battle. Sweat and blood, intermingling.
He felt the wrap of Dorian’s leg first and arched his back as if to encourage it. It felt like a lock, a command of compliance, and part of him loved it. In this moment, in this action, neither one of them were ‘human’. They were animals, lost to primal need, entirely focused on physical desire, and Kuval hadn’t felt so at home on land as he did right now. This, this felt like home. There was no need for clothes, or the foreign language he’d learned, or propriety. This was what he’d missed about home and it was given back to him here, now, by the witch.
A groan left him as nails bit into his back, but he found himself tilting into the much softer sensation against his hair. Lifting his head, Kuval panted against the wounds he’d created. It occurred to him that Dorian enjoyed the dominance, the pain. It was a darkness that they both felt in the moment, and he was more than willing to comply.
Kuval moved his hand from Dorian’s hair and instead quickly gripped around his neck, pressing him more into the floorboard. He didn’t want him to move, needed him to stay here. The pressure was building and the need of it only made him more desperate for Dorian to remain.
With fingers around his neck, a portion of his weight was left there and the rest spread to his burning abdomen, unwilling to let go of his length. No, this he worked more as he grew closer still. He was almost growing light from the anticipation and, to ground himself as much as he could, he turned his head further down the man’s shoulder and sunk his teeth in hard again.
He could feel the heart under his hand, feel the struggle for breath, feel the sounds trying to escape. As the blood pooled around his lips again, Kuval felt himself at the brink. With a final slam, forcing himself as deeply as his body would allow, he released into the witch with a deep pleasure moan.
His shoulders shook down from his release and, finally, his fingers eased again on the man’s throat to allow him breath as he struggled to find his own. The syreni lifted his head slightly, halved eyes watching the blood roll along the nearly mangled shoulder, but he didn’t move further than that… He wasn’t entirely sure that he could.
