Just Got Started Loving You
Written as a Birthday gift for @jediserenity82! Happy birthday darling!
Thane isn’t ready to let Taye leave their bed for a Council meeting and charms her back into bed, wanting to spend the whole day with her in his arms. Inspired by the song Just Got Started Loving You by James Otto. AO3 if you prefer.
“Do you really have to go?”
It wasn’t like she wanted to leave, but prior commitments had her out of bed early, pulling clothes on quickly, and running a brush through her hair, a ponytail the easiest hairstyle given her time frame. She glanced at her lover, and bit her lip. The sheet had slipped down, barely draped over his hips, morning sunlight glinting off his scales; it was a view she didn’t think she could ever get tired of. She had to force herself to tear her eyes away from his body…if she gave in and let him take her back to bed she would be indisposed for a couple hours until the amplexus wore off, and she was already running late as it was. There was a mischievous twinkle in his black eyes, as he caught her hand as she went to set the brush back down.
“Siha, you owe me a goodbye kiss.” He smiled innocently at her, almost making her forget about the smirk.
As her lips met his, he pulled her down on top of him, his hand brushing across her breasts over her top; if she didn’t know any better, she’d say it was an accident. But her body knew better with the way it heated up, her blood simmering at a low boil…his hand hadn’t needed to be anywhere in the vicinity of her chest, and yet, she couldn’t bring herself to escape his embrace. A gentle hand stroked down the skin of her arm. His hips rolled against hers, a strangled gasp running past her lips, his hand wrapping around her waist, hauling her tighter against him. He didn’t like that she had to go, not when he was on bedrest, even if he did have his son here.
“Is the Council more important than me?”
Taye laughed. “Not a chance. With all the times they said I was wrong or crazy, I’m only giving them the time of day because there’s no need to burn bridges…I may not be their biggest fan, but I am a Spectre.”
“I could assassinate them…”
