#######Author's Note#######
If you're new to this, this is part of a series of assorted affairs involving Ketna and Xerxes. Takes place shortly after the Sharing fic, it's not required reading but that is the context.
#########################
After the ruckus caused by Ketna's rather unexpected action had settled, there was a bit more social mingling and boasting before the guests were separated from the main room so that the persons of interest could address the reason for their being summoned, an element none of them had been told beforehand as the matter was one of both urgency and secrecy.
Unbeknownst to Ketna, the meeting they had all gathered for, had been about her. While she was making careful, calculated conversations with the other guests and occasional staff, they discussed how they were going to entrap and kill the vigilante that had been causing them problems both directly and indirectly. Unfortunately for Ketna, it was a sort of planning Xerxes was all too eager to participate in. Much of what he had learned from their private 'encounters', he offered up freely, giving them insight to her more inhuman attributes she had managed to keep obscured to the rest of them otherwise. In the time that passed, a group of people that most wanted her to suffer were closer to knowing exactly how to cause more real harm to her than they had just moments ago and in the weeks to come, she would learn of just how much danger she was about to be in.
After a few hours of thorough planning the meeting dispersed, satisfied in their goal of setting into motion a far better mousetrap than they had anticipated. There was no fanfare about their dispersal, the initial socializing was just a formality but at its core this was never intended to be a social affair. Now that business had been concluded, it was time to leave.
Ketna noted something off about Xerxes' demeanor when he returned. There was a certain detachment to the way he looked, how he moved, and the terse way he spoke. But she didn't ask about it, it was really none of her business, anyway. Beyond some few acknowledgments of the other guests, Xerxes said very little until they made it back to the car.
"Y'get what you need?"
"And then some." Ketna confirmed, making notes in the phone she retrieved from the car. "A little social engineering goes a long way."
"Good." Xerxes' response seemed a little flat, something to acknowledge the statement but no real investment in the response either way.
The drive back had been more or less silent, and the feeling Ketna was getting from Xerxes hadn't faded. None of what she had in mind that could potentially explain his listlessness clued in her to what they had actually discussed. It wasn't until they had found themselves sitting at a light for a bit too long that Xerxes finally spoke up.
"Gonna take a detour," It was direct, leaving no room for negotiation. "Gotta place nearby, wanna return the favor."
Return the favor? Ketna went over in her mind what he could have possibly meant by that seeing as technically this whole performance was him doing her a favor, then it hit her.
Oh. Oh.
She felt her face grow hot at the realization but kept her response cool, giving a casual laugh to start. "I'm certainly not going to turn that down."
"No, you're not." There was a firmness to his delivery that made it sound like an order.
It only served to make her more aroused at the thought than she already was, this was already off to a very interesting start, to say the least.
The drive was still quiet but this time she was occupied by the thought of how exactly Xerxes planned on 'returning the favor' and if it really was going to be what she suspected. Luckily she didn't have to stew in anticipation for long, as the destination really was close. It was a property she had been aware of but never had cause to investigate, a smaller place in a more unassuming but not inexpensive housing complex.
Upon entering the threshold, Xerxes hoisted Ketna off the ground by the waist in a swift swoop of his arm, an act she was not at all expecting but was not entirely unwelcome. Striding into the bedroom, Xerxes tossed her onto the bed, which she landed on as intended. Loosening his tie and the top few buttons of his shirt, Xerxes began to give orders.
"Get those pants down."
Flustered, Ketna fumbled for the fasten at the side of her pants, even taking a moment to kick off her dress shoes at the same time. She had barely slid it over her hips when Xerxes kneeled down at the edge of the bed to take over.
"Good Girl." Xerxes practically cood as he finished sliding her pants over her hips and down her thighs.
His praise hit her like a truck, everything felt hot, heavy, and tense. He hadn't even done anything and she already felt like a mess. This was going to be bad, probably great, but bad.
Even if she was expecting it, it was still somehow a shock to feel Xerxes tongue against her lips. She whimpered with a gasp at the contact, but it was the deliberate grazing against her clit that caused her back to arch and moan.
Xerxes took hold of her thighs, pressing them down against her to hold her in place. Using thumbs to keep her lips spread open, Xerxes slid his tongue through them, teasing back and forth a few times before reaching back up again to swirl against her clit. Again she gasped and lurched, but his hold kept her hips in place, leaving her open to what he wanted.
His tongue held its spot, working against the sensitive organ. Already heightened by the mood that had been set, Ketna found herself closer to the edge than she anticipated. Then, the tongue lifted. She expected maybe that was all he intended, to work her up before he got his, but he remained between her legs. Glancing down to see what was happening she caught his gaze only for a moment, an error on her part if she had any hope of keeping her senses. There was something so possessive about the way he looked at her from between her legs, making her feel more submissive than she already was. The corners of his mouth drew up just before opening wider to over take her hips. Shortly after she could feel his tongue press it's way in. Ketna let her head fall back onto the bed.
Xerxes had eaten her out before, but it had been while she was doming him and every time she had to stop him before it got too far in order for her to maintain any semblance of control. But this time he was fully in control of the situation, he could keep her pinned, draw it out if he so chose to, and she wouldn't have to snap herself back at the end. And even as worrying as that prospect was and the risk it put her at, it was exactly what she wanted.
His teeth grazed the flesh of her hips but stopped short of breaking skin, a deliberate act, just enough to remind her they were there as his tongue did a good job of stirring her up from the inside. For the first few passes, it lightly pulled back and forth inside her passage, teasing her more than stimulating her. With the appropriate angle figured out, one hand let go of her thigh to slide over it making way to her hip, resting on the mons.
Now his tongue dug into her walls, dragging itself with some force against it. The hand at her mons pressed into the flesh, fingers tracing down the top of her lips, then pulling back upward, avoiding direct contact with her apex but resting gently above it. Some massaging of his hand against her mons made it clear his goal was not to make direct contact, but instead indirectly. Finding the right placement of the nerves that lay hidden beneath was met with a subtle intake of breath from Ketna. Possessing the tools he needed Xerxes picked up the pace, tongue inside applying aggressive pressure adding to the sharp sensation of the pressure against the root of her clit.
Not wanting to leave dents on him as she had before, disrupt his actions, or worse, direct his teeth into her skin, Ketna gripped at the sheets of the bed. The pressure from both points in unison were driving her closer to the edge, each few passes of the firm tongue inside her had her moaning just a little louder. Xerxes kept his pace steady, adding what pressure he could without closing his jaw any further, and her body responded in kind.
Ketna both heard and felt something like a throaty growl emit from Xerxes while he worked his tongue on her. She couldn't tell if it was supposed to be irritation or a threat, but some part of her couldn't help but be urged on by the animalistic behavior. Already primed by both his actions and his words, Ketna permitted herself to succumb to the plateau Xerxes was guiding her towards. It started with the relief of a deep ache within finally reaching the peak. She shuddered in place, clenching against the invading force that drove her to this point, but it didn't last for long, as Xerxes pulled his tongue out from inside her shortly after.
It was a disappointment to feel his tongue leave her empty in the midst of her climax, but the return of the brush of his tongue against her clit was a welcome surprise. Xerxes had been prepared for her response, a strong grip kept her hips steady even as she startled, sensitive to the touch. His tongue continued to swirl over it drawing out the aftershocks of her climax, which were met with her desperate vocalizations and an arching back that threatened to test the hold he did have.
While his tongue continued to tease her above, fingers explored where his tongue had left, tracing gently around the threshold before sliding their way in. Instinctually, she jerked her hips, trying to get away from his grasp and the potential danger of his claws. Xerxes lifted his tongue in response.
"Relaaax sweetheart, ain't gonna hurt'cha." He chided in a way that seemed to indicate he was entertained by her apprehension. He lapped once more between her lips before he spoke again. "Said I was gonna return the favor."
Upon hearing this, Ketna cautiously settled her hips, permitting his fingers to continue their way inside. True to his claim, Xerxes was careful enough to ensure nothing hurt or scraped. The fingers carefully massaged inside her, tips tilted back enough to provide clearance even as he applied pressure, and in feeling this, Ketna fully relented to his ministrations, again.
