CHAPTER 35: _SO DAMN IRRESISTIBLE

(Warning: Mature Content and Empire level spice coming in hot!)

Elian’s POV

*****

"Argh!"

"Sorry. I told you to relax and not move too much."

[And I thought by now you two would be cutting to the chase and fucking each other senseless. Speaking of which, am I the only one who thinks Beta Axel low-key gives sub vibes?]

Elian rolled his eyes.

Currently, he and Axel were in the latter’s chambers, on his bed. The Beta had taken off his clothes, leaving only a pair of ash trunks, lying on his chest.

Elian held a rag soaked in warm water and applied it on the surface of the burn mark etched on the Beta’s back like some cursed tattoo.

But at the same time... He swallowed repeatedly, trying hard to focus without staring too long at the Beta’s well-defined back muscles.

Elian adjusted his sitting position on the bed, trying to hide his already prominent erection.

"This isn’t... Necessary, Elian. Really." Axel said amid pants and grunts, a dry chuckle escaping his lips. "When I said I needed company I imagined something more... Promising."

Elian parted his lips as Axel grabbed his wrist suddenly, his golden eyes glinting with an intense light. He slowly sat up, the water dripping down his back making him seem even hotter.

The Beta’s chest seemed to call to Elian whose gaze trailed on his biceps and then his nipples.

Gosh, he felt like burying his face on that chest.

"Are you nervous?" Axel suddenly asked, stretching his right hand forward and caressing Elian’s cheek tenderly. "It’s just me and you here, Elian. Not the people of the capital. Not Estella. Not anyone who might judge... Just us."

Elian’s breathing hitched as the Beta’s gaze went from his lips to his eyes and then to his lips again in a repeated manner that placed him in a trance.

[Trance or horniness wrapped in good old denial? Also, need I remind you you have a side mission to get laid by one of your mates before tonight?]

Elian subconsciously frowned, his mind drifting to the system. ’Before tonight? I thought the deadline was BY tonight?’

[Well, the stakes have changed, and your emotional constipation is getting boring really quickly.]

Elian pouted his lips. ’It’s not my fault I almost got killed twice and found out one of my mates is cheating behind my back. Wait, how does having three mates work? Can’t I let him do stuff with other people? Gosh, I—’

"I... Guess you’re still recovering from the nerves of the assassination attempt." Axel chuckled, nodding with an understanding look.

Elian’s eyes widened when the Beta suddenly got on his feet, his dick print literally pointing at him through the ash trunks.

The trunks emphasised his glutes, and the most mouth-watering part? He was hard too!

Fuck...

"Alpha King Arian directed me to create a committee for your protection and to investigate that first assassin. With this new one, it’s long overdue." Axel remarked, grabbing his shirt on the bed.

When he turned, Elian’s eyes landed on his ass and he felt like he was about to explode.

He didn’t even know when he stretched his hands forward and touched Axel’s back, causing the latter to stiffen.

The Beta turned to face Elian, raising an eyebrow. But Elian ignored that, getting on his feet slowly while his eyes trailed the Beta’s body.

"You’re so... Hot." Elian blurted before he could get a hold of himself.

His face heated up with a blush but just when he was about to look away, Axel dropped his shirt and wrapped his right arm around his waist, causing a gasp to escape his lips.

His body pressed against the Beta’s warm chest muscles, his hands tightening on his shoulders as he stared into his silver eyes. Breathing seemed like a chore as the Beta’s own breath hit his face.

And his dick...

Goddess, the Beta’s erection was so full now that it felt like a rock pressing against Elian’s stomach, pulsing with every slight movement underneath the ash trunks.

"And you’re so damn irresistible," Axel said with a growl so primal, as if every last thread of self-control had dissolved like sugar in water.

Elian felt the same way and more.

Instantly, their lips collided in a sensual kiss far steamier than their first. This kiss wasn’t a vulnerable moment.

No, this kiss burned with enough need and urgency to incinerate them both and then the whole damn room while they’re at it.

Elian held on to Axel’s shoulders as if his life depended on it but that became more of a problem as the Beta’s left hand went underneath his shirt, tracing lines on his back.

Elian’s hands never left the Beta’s shoulders... Not even when the latter finally trailed his left hand to his ass, squeezing it.

A moan left Elian’s lips as he arched backwards, raising his head to the ceiling. He closed his eyes, pulling away from the kiss but Axel didn’t mind, immediately continuing by trailing kisses on his neck.

[Host #2 Seduction meter rising... 60%!]

Elian frowned a bit at the system’s unwanted input.

’Not now!’ Elian growled mentally, his hands trailing the Beta’s chest and then wrapping around his body.

[Ooop... Someone’s finally serious with losing his V card. I’ll leave you to it...]

Elian smirked, gasping and moaning when Axel’s soft kisses on his neck turned into soft bites. It started with soft nibbles at first, teasing and sensual... But then it soon started stinging.

"Ouch..." Elian rasped, his eyes rolling to the back of his head.

Fuck, it felt so good!

Suddenly, Axel shoved him to the bed, causing him to let out a gasp first and then a chuckle. His gaze was locked on the Beta’s dick which throbbed like it was pleading to be free of the ash trunks.

Axel lowered himself, kneeling in front of Elian while maintaining eye contact. His hands caressed his legs with the same tenderness one used when moulding clay pots.

"Beautiful..." Axel said hoarsely, starting by pressing a kiss on Elian’s right leg.

But he didn’t end there, slowly taking it up and trailing more kisses until he got to his pants.

Elian’s eyes were on the ceiling as he moaned, gasped, arched and got soaked with sweat.

He thought this was already pushing the limits of spice he could handle.

But alas, he found out it barely scratched the surface when the Beta pulled off his pants and his underwear in one fluid motion...
