"Relax, you stubborn demon," Luke laughed as he grasped Asme's hips. Asme growled in response. He didn't try to relax. Luke kneaded his hips gently.
"I am a
Prince
, Princes do not submit," Asme growled.
Luke leaned forward and kissed Asme's shoulder. He was beautiful like this. On his hands and knees in front of Luke. The muscles in his back were taut with tension, his back ramrod straight. He had grown out his short blonde locks, and they were cascading down his back. The demon shivered at Luke's touch, but he did not relax. Luke leaned forward until his face was by Asme's ear.
"Demon, we have been together for almost 300 years, and I am still human. If you
really
didn't want this, you can get out of my grasp," Luke let the humor into his voice. In reality, his demon was just being difficult. He tightened his grip on Asme's hip to make a point, "Go on, you are free to leave if you wish. It's not like I can
stop
you."
Luke leaned back as Asme turned his head around. Laughter roared out of Luke's mouth as he saw the fire in Asme's eyes. Perfect pits of black with just a hint of red in them. What a sight they were.
"Bite your tongue,
human.
" He spat, "I wouldn't want to rip your arms off."
"You would do no such thing," Luke teased as he started kneading Asme's hips again, "Now just relax. It will be over before you know it."
"I have been alive for millennia..."
"Yeah, yeah, you're an old ass demon. I get it. But it's your turn to take me for a change. We agreed on this," Luke said tenderly. He wasn't blind to his lover's reservations; he knew they would come up. He was prepared for this. He moved one of his hands from Asme's hip to the center of his back and dragged it down slowly. The demon shuddered under his touch. "I promise I'm not going to hurt you. Besides, it's taken me
three hundred years
to get you to agree to this. I'm not letting you out of it now."
Asme sighed and let his head drop. Luke released his grip on the demon's hips and went to his side, placing a hand on his shoulder. Asme leaned into his touch, seemingly okay now that Luke wasn't poised behind him. Luke understood his fear all too well. With his other hand, Luke reached over and brought Asme's head towards him. The demon's hair fell in his face, errant as always, maybe even more so since it was longer now, and Luke used his other hand to sweep it back. It had taken years for the demon to be okay with shows of emotion like this. He had been open with his feelings, but they never crossed his face. The look in his eyes was pleading. Luke leaned forward and kissed him softly. Asme moaned into his mouth. Reluctantly, Luke broke the kiss, but he held his lover firmly in his hands.
"Asme, I know you're scared, but I am not going to hurt you," Luke said gently.
"I am a demon, I do not get scared," Asme said defiantly. Luke laughed.
"Even so, we can make this more comfortable for you. Would you rather be on your back so you can see me?" Luke caressed his cheek softly. Asme closed his eyes and leaned his face into Luke's hand and nodded.
"I think so, Luke," he conceded, "But it's going to hurt. You can't say that it's not. I've seen your face for 300 years."
"Only for a moment, and only if you don't relax, but then it's the best feeling," Luke smiled as he spoke, "Having you is the best feeling in the world, Asme."
The demon sighed and rolled over onto his back, "How did I get myself into this mess?"
Luke positioned himself on top of Asme, "By accepting this," he said as he leaned down to kiss the mark on Asme's chest. The demon arched his back and moaned at Luke's touch. "Now just settle down and relax. I'll make this worth your while."
"You better," Asme grumbled.
