Elide kissed him again and whispered, "Show me everything."
So Lorcan did.
He locked eyes with her, carefully assessing her face as if trying to decide whether she was truly ready for what they were about to do. Though he could easily scent her arousal, as soon as those thoughts entered her mind, he knew he would have to hold back. She wasn't ready yet for all he wanted to do to her. He would have to take it slow and be gentle with her.
Something he hadn't had to do for a very long time.
His eyes shifted away from hers as his lips continued their ministrations on her neck. He felt her shiver as his canines grazed her skin. Elide tipped her head back farther as a quiet breath left her lips, exposing more of her neck to him. Lorcan settled his weight between her legs, gently nudging at her thighs while he worked to create more room for himself.
Even though their bottom halves were still clothed, Lorcan had to resist the urge to push himself against her, to create that friction he so desperately craved. He knew Elide could feel him trembling, with anticipation, restraint, or excitement – he couldn't tell which. Probably all of the above. Even though he had expected her to be nervous, he hoped she knew there was no need to be afraid. Lorcan made sure his careful touches were all the evidence she needed that he would go to extremes to make sure she felt comfortable and safe.
His lips continued their path down her neck, sighs and quiet moans leaving her lips on their own accord. He felt her body finally begin to relax, as he coaxed her into a world of lust and bliss. His mouth dragged down her throat, coming to rest between her breasts.
When he paused, her eyes fluttered open to find him looking up at her through his lashes. Though she didn't have a fae’s sense of smell, he decided she could probably scent the arousal melting off of him. He watched her face as he dragged his lips to the left, his mouth closing around the hard peak of her breast. Her brows lowered as he flicked his skilled tongue over it. His cock twitched at the thought of himself giving her pleasure in all the ways he planned.
Elides eyes closed again as she dropped her head back to the pillow, her hands fastening her fingers in his hair. His hand found her other breast, kneading the supple flesh there while he sucked lightly on her nipple. He almost felt bad for the soldiers in tents around them as his name left her lips for the first time. It tugged at something deep within him, made him need to be even closer to her. He purred low in his chest when her fingers gave a light tug. She locked her eyes with his and he nearly jumped when she ground her hips forward into his bare chest.
“Please,” she breathed.
That was all he needed to hear as the hand that worked her breast dragged down her soft stomach, fingers tracing the plane of her torso, his deft fingers immediately getting her pants button undone. He scooted his body down as he worked, pressing lazy kisses down her stomach while he moved. He looked up to find her watching him again, her face flushed and dark hair already looking disheveled from her head moving on the pillow. His large hands moved to either side of her hips to slide her pants down, Elide lifting her hips slightly so he could get them past her butt. His eyes studied every inch of skin revealed as she was bared to him. Lorcan couldn't remember the last time he felt this way. The last time he genuinely wanted to take his time with a woman, especially one so fragile. Hell, he could barely remember his name.
“This is okay?” He asked her quietly as he slid her injured ankle out of her pants.
“Yes,” she whispered back, “I trust you.” His heart lurched at her admission, even though he already knew. He felt a tick of rage as his thoughts wandered to her past, what she had gone through under her uncle's watch. The thought of any other men being able to see her how he was. He discarded her pants beside the cot and caught Elides eyes again, any negative emotions instantly dissipating as he focused back on the task at hand. The sides of his mouth twitched up in a sensual smile as he breathed in her arousal, having to stop his eyes from rolling to the back of his.
He slid his hands under her thighs and onto her lower belly, her knees coming to rest on his shoulders as he lay flat on his front. His stomach tightened as she watched while he lowered his mouth to her core, pressing a kiss there. Her eyelids fluttered and her mouth opened slightly at the new sensation, another sigh leaving her lips. His tongue licked a bold line up her center and her head fell back again, breath rushing out of her. Lorcan closed his eyes and went to work, groaning at the taste of her. She was everything he’d dreamed.
Elide’s breaths came faster and faster as he worked his mouth on her, circling his tongue around her clit. Her hands, which had come to rest on his arms, tangled blindly in his hair, tugging at the strands in order to keep herself grounded. He flattened out his tongue and applied pressure to all of her, a growl rumbling from his chest as her fingers tugged, harder now. She let out a moan, the loudest yet, as he turned his head side to side between her thighs. Lorcans cock pulsed again at the thought of burying himself deep inside the wetness there. He ground his hips into the cot below and barely concealed the groan that passed his lips.
Elide bucked her hips forward, begging for more. While some part of him wanted to tease her, tell her to be patient, the more impatient part of him wasn't having it. His right hand slowly dragged off of her stomach, trailing around her hips as he felt her still in anticipation. He dipped his tongue down to her entrance, pressing it into her as far as he could a few times, prepping her for his large fingers. Elide moaned again, his name and a string of curses tumbling from her lips. This time his eyes did roll back as he tasted her sweetness directly from the source.
He watched her face as he rose back up, his lips suctioning around her clit as he, very slowly, pressed his middle finger into her, groaning at the tightness there. Her eyebrows pressed together, her mouth dropping open again. A much higher sound than he expected left her lips, like she was surprised by the feeling, the pressure. Lorcan was truly suffering now, as he could feel the tip of his cock beginning to leak into his undershorts at the thought of replacing his finger with something much larger.
Lorcan slowly pumped one finger in and out of her a few times, allowing her to get used to the sensation before adding another and stilling them inside her, giving her a few seconds to stretch around them. His name fell from her mouth like a chant as he carefully began to work her closer to her climax. He cherished every second of his job, his tongue flicking against her as he felt her body relax even more, accepting the intrusion, begging for even more.
He pulled his head back, “I’m going to make you come now,” he ground out, the gruffness of his voice surprising him. Elide blinked at him, her breath heaving from her chest. He didn't give her time to doubt that fact as he dipped his head back down and began curling his fingers up inside her, teasing that spongy piece of flesh that he knew would drive her over the edge. He switched between closing his lips around her clit and licking her with the flat of his tongue as he worked her.
Elides' breath came increasingly faster, as Lorcan caressed the spot inside her he knew would make her fall apart under his fingers.. He felt her walls begin to push in on him, and he knew it wouldn't be but a few more seconds.
“Lorcan!” she moaned, almost in warning as her fingers gripped his hair, pulling him back. He looked up at her as he continued his ministrations, her eyes held slight panic and he knew it was because of the very new sensation of coming on a male’s tongue. He just continued what he was doing as she gave up and her head fell back again, moaning his name over and over. Elide came, her hands tightening even more as her climax crashed into her. Lorcan still didn't stop, though he slowed as he felt her walls pulse around him. He lovingly worked her through her first orgasm, cherishing the song of his name on her lips.
~
Elide panted heavily, coming down from the very intense high he had just coaxed her to. Her body was signing, already begging for more as Lorcan withdrew his fingers, and kissed his way back up her body, pausing to nip at her nipple. She huffed a breath at his playfulness and tugged at his hair again, pulling his face up to meet hers. She tasted herself on his lips, and hummed in appreciation of the sweetness she found there. She wondered what he tasted like.
Lorcan pulled back, a lazy smile on his lips. She interrupted him before he could say the words on his lips, “I want to try.” Lorcan blinked, his brows twitching down in surprise, then his smile grew mischievous.
“Try what, Lady?” He asked quietly, eyes flicking to her lips then back up.
Elide cleared her throat, mentally cursing him for making her say what she wanted when he damn well knew. She decided to play into his game, use words that she was sure would make him press his groin into the nearest object. “I want to taste you, too.”
His smile faltered slightly at her sudden confidence, but his eyelids drooped lower, and sure enough he shifted, trying to relieve the ache he was surely feeling. Elide decided to oblige him. She boldly reached down and grabbed him through his pants, fear and pride coursing through her at the size of what he pushed into her palm. “Please?” she asked him, fluttering her lashes. His smile disappeared completely as he stood up and started removing his pants, his midnight eyes watching her the whole time. His brows pulled down as she sat up and hooked her fingers into his waistband while he unbuttoned them. She slowly pulled down, jumping back slightly as his erection sprang forward. She knew he would be large, but she wondered how he would fit all of that inside her, he was much larger than his fingers.
Elide wrapped her hand around him and he groaned, his chest rumbling. His skin was velvet. Hard as rock but so, so soft.
“I don't know how long I can let you do this,” Lorcan admitted gruffly. At her look of confusion, he practically growled, “Your mouth is lovely, but I need to feel you.”
She pulled in a gasp at the heat that began to pool in her stomach again at the thought. She let her eyes dip down to the challenge in front of her. She pumped the length of him twice, noting how her fingers couldn't wrap around the whole of him. She knew he was watching her, but she took her time anyway. Lorcan put his hands behind his back, and she knew it was to keep himself under control, from being too rough with her when he knew she wasn’t ready. She appreciated the restraint, but was shocked at the thought that maybe she wouldn't mind. Him fucking her throat as she struggled to breathe. The thought had her pressing her thighs together again, a flash of embarrassment at how wet she was, even though it was Lorcans fault. Elide told herself to focus on what was in front of her.
Lorcan must've smelled her rapidly changing emotions, “Are you alri- ahhh” he trailed off, his head tipping back as Elide shoved those feelings down and went for it, interrupting him by wrapping her lips around the tip of his cock. The bead of liquid at the tip was salty, but the rest of him just tasted like Lorcan. She licked at the tip while keeping her lips sealed around him.
“Shit, Elide.” Lorcan muttered, his head still tipped back. She wished she could kiss his neck and his cock at the same time as she slowly began to explore more of him. She felt him shudder at the feeling. Her hand stayed wrapped around the base of his cock while she slid him farther into her mouth. Running her tongue around the tip, she pulled back, her lips making a popping sound. Lorcan finally looked back at her, eyes dark with desire as he watched her spit on him, finally moving her hand to spread it around, wetting the length of him.
He sucked in a breath through his teeth, hissing as she wrapped her lips around him again. She pushed him in a little farther than last time, and pulled back out. Repeated the motion a few times, and went just a little further each time. She could feel him restraining himself, and decided she didn't want him to. She pulled back again.
“Touch me. Please.” Lorcans dark eyes scanned her as she watched him. Slowly, so slowly, he released his wrist from behind his back, and brought his hands to his sides.
“I don't want to hu-”
“You won't.” she interrupted his thought, never more sure of anything. He could never hurt her, “Please,” she begged again.
Lorcan moved his hands to her hair, pulling it back from her face in one fist, and groaned deeply as she pulled him into her mouth again. He didn’t put any pressure on her head, but the feeling of his hands gripping her hair had Elide squirming. She was only able to work him for a couple seconds before he muttered something about not being able to wait and pulled her up, kissing her fervently as he wrapped his hands around her waist and picked her up. Her legs instinctually locked around his waist as he moved them both back to their starting position on the cot. Kicking his pants the rest of the way off as he did it.
Elide’s hands wandered his body as he moved them, exploring every inch of his heated skin, the hard muscle beneath it. As he laid her down, she ran her hands down his chest, feeling his heartbeat underneath the hair there. He groaned into her mouth as he came to rest between her thighs, the tip of his cock pressing lightly against her as her legs let go of him. Lorcan pulled away, looking into her eyes for confirmation that this was alright. She just gave him a little nod, never feeling more sure.
Elide calmed the anxiety coursing through her veins as Lorcan’s eyes left hers and traveled down her body to where she so desperately needed to feel him. Her body trembled slightly in anticipation of what was to come. She watched as he brought his large hand up to his mouth, spit into it and gripped his cock, spreading the wetness around to make everything easier. Her stomach tightened as he angled himself to enter her, lightly pushing against her entrance before he looked up at her again.
Lorcan held eye contact as he slowly slid into her, monitoring her face for any hint of pain. Elide’s eyebrows pressed together as she waited for the pain that never came. Only a lovely, filling pressure. It was a tight fit, and was slightly uncomfortable for the first few seconds, but the work Lorcan had done had paid off. Her body was ready for him, and he was able to push almost all of himself inside her. Lorcan buried his face in her neck, stilling while he purred at the pressure that relieved both of them.
She felt his teeth graze her neck as he started to move, and she whispered his name as he rocked back into her slowly, carefully. He lightly bit down where her neck met her shoulder, and she moaned louder, relishing the dull pain of his canines digging into her. Not hard enough to break the skin, but hard enough for her to feel claimed by the beautiful male above her.
Lorcan pulled back enough to watch her writhe beneath him as he continued to move inside her, and his eyes glazed over when Elide moved her hands to her breasts, pinching and manipulating the flesh there for him to watch. She held eye contact with him as she cursed and moaned his name. A low growl emanated from his chest in answer as his eyes devoured every inch of her, starting to move a little faster.
Elide just moaned again as his eyes slid down to where they met, and he bit his lip. She could've come from that sight alone. He held himself up with one arm while he reached the other hand down in between them and began lightly circling her clit with his thumb. Elides eyes screwed shut as pleasure shot through her. She was so sensitive, and from the pressure building in her gut she knew it wouldn't take long before she came again. Her moans became more frequent, higher as he fucked her toward her climax.
Lorcan moved his hand from her clit, and she didn't even have time to miss the pressure before he began pressing on her lower stomach, right above where she could feel his cock fucking into her. Elide arched her back at the new feeling, his hand pressing into the tip of his cock with every stroke. He only rocked back and forth a few more times before he stilled inside her as she came.
Elide thought she might have been screaming, but she wasn't sure. She could only focus on his cock moving slowly in and out of her while she came around it, her walls clenching and unclenching uncontrollably. Lorcan’s chest vibrated as he growled at the sensation. He slowly moved himself in and out of her while she rode through her second orgasm of the night; kissed her neck as she caught her breath.
Elide’s whole body was shaking as Lorcan wrapped his arm around her waist again and flipped them so he was sitting up with her on his lap. She trembled as she just let her forehead rest on his shoulder. Her body twitched and Lorcan let out a chuckle, giving her another few seconds to catch her breath.
“I don't know how to do this,” she admitted nervously, still panting.
“I know, don't worry. I'll help you,” Lorcan declared, kissing her neck, “I just want to watch you.” Elide finally picked her head up off his shoulder to look in his eyes.
“You’re beautiful,” he whispered to her, his brows lowered as his eyes roamed over her face.
“So are you,” she said with a chuckle of her own, all nerves dissipating as she observed the male in front of her. She had never felt so safe.

Lorcan watched Elide as she slowly, awkwardly started to grind into him, shifting her hips in his lap. He groaned at the feeling of his cock still inside her. Little did Elide know, she didn't need to know what she was doing. She could make him fall apart just sitting there if she looked at him the right way. He knew she would feel uncomfortable though, so he moved one of his hands to her hips, showing her how to glide herself up and down his shaft. She watched with darkened eyes where they connected as she practiced the movement, small moans tumbling from her mouth.
Lorcan never took his eyes off her, and when she came a little farther forward than usual, he closed his mouth around her nipple again. He felt her head tip back at the sensation, her hands finding his shoulders as she kept slowly moving, his cock sheathing in all the way to the hilt. He purred as her nails dug into his shoulders. The pain of it, exhilarating. He wished she would bite him back, harder than he had bit her, but that would come later. Even though she seemed to notice he enjoyed the pain, this first pairing was about showing her the ropes. His other hand came to cup her backside as she rode him, and he slowly laid back flat on the cot.
Elide paused, unsure, but when he lightly squeezed her butt, she began to move again. Her hands came to rest on his chest as she leaned forward, letting her hips move more freely than before. The feeling of the extra movement had Lorcan struggling to breathe, the soft warmth of her reaching all the way to his bones. He decided he would never get enough of this.
“Like that?” she asked, seemingly noticing the changes in his face.
“Yes.” he ground out. “That's perfect, Elide.”
Her mouth dropped open at the sound of her name on his lips, and she leaned forward to kiss his throat. One of his hands dragged up her back to twine in her hair, the other tracking her movements as he could no longer watch.
Elide rode him, sliding up and down a little faster now as she began to suck on his neck. He felt her teeth graze him and sucked in a breath. She paused for a second, and he knew she was calculating what to do with that information. She whispered in his ear, her voice sultry, deeper than he had ever heard it, “Does that feel good?” A chill ran down his spine as he began to feel his climax building at her words, her panting.
“Fuck. Yes.” he whispered back. “You’re perfect,” He groaned as she licked a line from his collar bone to his ear, very clearly enjoying the power she held over him.
She rode him faster, her name tumbled from his lips again and again, his hands running all over her as he came closer to his climax. Elide moaned in his ear, chasing her own orgasm. He could feel her beginning to tighten again as she panted.
“Oh, my gods,” she whispered, her voice, her words thick with need.
“Are you going to come for me again?” he asked, the question coming out louder than he had intended. He was losing control.
“Yes. Fuck, Lorcan,” she whispered, more curses tumbling from her lips as she continued to ride. “You feel so good.”
He moaned again, dangerously close to the edge. Elide’s lips dragged over his shoulder, to his neck. He shivered, his toes curling at the sensation. His moans became more urgent, “I’m going to come soon,” he ground out. A warning to give her the choice to decide where that would happen. She just continued to ride.
“I want to feel it,” Elide panted, continuing to lick his neck as she dug her nails into him again. Lorcan cursed again, louder this time. His hands circled her waist, holding her up as he began to fuck up into her. She let out a small scream as he fucked her harder. “Oh, gods!”
“Come for me, Elide,” he growled into her ear as she let out a string of curses, his cock hitting that perfect spot inside her. He felt her walls begin to release just as she sank her teeth into his neck. He couldn't hold back his moans of utter pleasure as he instantly came deep inside her. Her walls pulsing around his cock and her teeth inside him. She moaned into his shoulder, shaking as he cursed. He repeated her name like a prayer as his cock twitched inside her.
They remained like that until they both stopped trembling. Lorcans arms wrapped around her back while she came down from her high, holding her to him. She finally released his neck, and he caught the scent of his own blood as she pulled away, kissing his cheek, then the corner of his mouth, then his lips as she found his eyes. She chucked, her cheeks flushing as she continued to press lazy kisses all around his face. Words were not necessary. They both knew that was the best either of them had ever had.
Once Elide had recovered, Lorcan flexed his abs as he sat them both up, him still inside her. He turned his head, looking to the still steaming bath that Aelin had kept heated. He knew her muscles would be sore, and he couldn't have that. So, Lorcan picked her up, finally pulling out of her as she just watched him. He turned her sideways on his lap, then stood, carrying her over to the warm tub and depositing her carefully inside it. He wished it was big enough to fit them both, but time for that would come later. He felt the flesh on his shoulder begin to knit back together as she settled in the bath. She turned to look at the closing wound.
“I wish I had something to set the scar with,” Lorcan admitted, “I would have the world know I've been claimed,” His eyes met hers again, she gave him a sheepish grin.
“Well, the soldiers in the tents around us definitely know,” she said under her breath. Lorcan chuckled, still feeling sorry for those around them. Maybe they’d gotten off to the sounds of their joining. More power to them, though he didn't like the thought of anyone listening to the sounds he’d had her making.
“And I can recreate that scar any time you want,” Elide said bravely, still looking shy about the woman she’d become minutes ago. The woman he’d coaxed out of her. He wished she wouldn't feel that way, but knew it would take her a while to feel comfortable with that side of herself. He would help her get there.
“Thank you,” Elide said, meeting his eyes when he didn't answer
“I love you,” Lorcan said in answer, more sure of it than ever, watching her flush even more. His blood rushed in his veins at the sight. He would have to be careful with her around the rest of the cadre for the foreseeable future. He had never felt so possessive over another individual before. He would have to reign in his behavior, lest he hurt one of his brothers.
“I know,” she said, and she did. “I love you too.”
