Summary: A wet dream you had about Aiden is all you can think about. You end up revealing too much after a few glasses of wine, crossing a line you've never crossed with him before, and Aiden is thrilled to indulge you in making your dream come true, and his after that.
Warnings/Mentions: Unprotected sex, drinking, wet dreams, mutual pining, pinned down/hand over mouth muffling
You tried to enjoy the night out. You really did. You drank, made merry, and mingled with your friends in the Fish Eye canteen.
Then Aiden showed up and you couldn't stop thinking about the dream you had the night before.
Aiden was in it. You were in the bar, just like tonight. And just like tonight, Aiden was drinking with you. He bought you drinks and chatted you up, just like tonight.
But unlike tonight, it didn't end at that. The young Pilgrim grabbed your hand and pulled you upstairs. He picked you up, sat you down on the table in front of the couch, and pulled your pants down your legs. He took you right there on that second floor table, fast and hard, while the party raged below. He kept his hand over your mouth and whispered praise into your ear while he fucked you stupid.
Aiden didn't do that tonight. He was the real version of himself tonight. Polite, a little nervous, reserved. He still bought you drinks and talked with you, but it didn't go any further than that.
You couldn't stop thinking about it. The way the doting boy who'd been bringing you little gifts after every supply run had fucked you with the confidence and swagger of a man you didn't recognize.
“Hey, wait-” he called after you as you walked down the steps, "-you're not leaving already, are you?”
You turned to see Aiden jogging down the wooden staircase behind you, slipping the straps of his paraglider back over his shoulders. His cheeks were flushed from the alcohol he'd been spending endless money on all evening.
You couldn't exactly tell him you were too turned on because of a dream you had of him to be in that establishment anymore.
“I'm gonna go home, yeah.” You murmured. You winced at the look of unhidden disappointment on his face.
“Want me to walk you home?” The offer came so fast you didn't have time to hide your pleasure.
You nodded quickly, a big smile of relief spreading on your vodka numb lips. “Please.”
Your place was a cozy little apartment near the Fish Eye. You were able to get there before the sun fully set, the UV lights above your door flicking on as soon as you unlocked it.
When you invited him in, that nervous look of hesitation left his features and he nodded immediately.
You pulled out a bottle of wine you'd been saving from under your counter and poured him a glass. You handed it to him as you passed by, not missing the way his eyes flashed with surprise when he took a sip.
“Wow.” He exhaled, watching you sit down on the opposite side of your couch. “This is… this is amazing.”
You smiled behind the rim of your glass and swallowed your first sip. It was amazing. “It was my moms. She gave it to me a few months ago for my birthday. She bought it herself, back before the Fall.”
His eyes widened.
Pre-fall wine was rare.
“I… shit.” He rasped, his voice dropping into something more serious. “People around here would kill for a single drop of this. It's like holding a piece of history. And you're… you're opening it for me?”
The sudden gravity of it felt too heavy all at once. You shrugged, trying to play it off as nothing, but it was already out there.
“It felt like a good night for it.” You smiled, trying to keep your voice steady. “Would rather share it with you tonight than die tomorrow without knowing what it's like.”
He didn't laugh or nod like you expected. He still looked breathlessly serious.
“I'm honored.” He murmured softly, his voice a velvety register. “Out of everyone in Villedor… you're sharing this with me.”
“Aiden.” You managed a playful smirk, taking another shaky sip. “It's just-” you couldn't finish the sentence.
That would be a lie. It wasn't just wine.
He gave a small, knowing smile anyway, giving you a little mercy from the intensity. “Just wine. Right, my apologies.”
You returned his smile with one that was grateful.
Half of a bottle later, and you had moved to your bannister. The two of you cradled your glasses as you watched the infected wander aimlessly in the streets below, enjoying the feeling of the cool night breeze against your flushed skin.
You were pleasantly drunk. Not wasted, but just tipsy enough to actually be yourself around him.
“You can sleep here.” You forced your voice to sound casual, swirling your wine. “If you want. I didn't realize how late it was...”
He looked over at you, swallowing hard, but he managed a smile. He didn't argue. “Yeah? You sure?”
You nodded and returned the smile, yours a little shakier. “Of course. The couch is all yours. It's a lil’ lumpy, though.”
“Thanks. I'm gonna sleep like a baby on that lumpy couch.” He grinned as he brought his glass to his lips. “Slept like shit last night.”
You glanced at him, watching him lick his bottom lip. It was a shade darker from the deep red liquid he'd been sipping on for the last hour. “Why?”
He shrugged. “Tossing and turning. Bad dreams. You know, the usual.”
You nodded, but your heart started racing at the mention of dreams. “What happened in it?”
He finished the last sip of his second glass and set the empty cup on the bannister railing before leaning against it to look at you. “Frank got drunk and strung me up like a pinata. Lawan beat me with a bat until inhibitors came out.”
You couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Aiden's lips split into a wide grin, and then he joined you, chuckles turning to laughter until he had to take a deep breath to steady himself.
“What about you?” He exhaled, his cheeks red from the laughter and alcohol in his system. “Any cool dreams lately?”
Your smile faltered before it slipped away entirely. You shrugged and downed the rest of your wine. You were tipsy enough to consider telling him, which was a dangerous state to be in.
You knew Aiden liked you. It was obvious. He was always bringing you all sorts of things, from useless trinkets to valuable supplies. He made constant offers of protection when you needed to make a run. He always walked you home from the Fish Eye, even when it was still daylight and you hadn't even drank.
So you didn't know why it felt so serious admitting you had a hot dream about him.
“Yeah.” Your voice came out quieter than you anticipated. “One about you, actually.”
His eyes lit up immediately. He stood up straighter, the flush on his face creeping to his ears and his neck. “Yeah? Good dream, I hope?” His own voice came out far huskier than he anticipated, and he cleared his throat.
You bit back a smile. He had no idea how good it was. You nodded. “Uh-huh. It was good.”
He raised a brow and licked his lips. “Well, now I'm definitely listening.” He tried to chuckle, but it sounded flat. “Tell me?”
“It was a lot like tonight. In the Canteen.” You started, still debating on if you were actually about to tell him the truth or make something up on the spot.
Aiden was watching you with his full attention.
You told him the truth.
“But we didn't come back here. You took me upstairs.” You didn't realize you were whispering until he stepped closer to hear you better. “Oh, God, Aiden. I can't-”
“Oh, come on. Tell me!” He breathed and stepped even closer, a small, excited grin on his lips.
You mirrored his grin with one of embarrassment and rubbed your forehead idly. “You picked me up and put me on that table up there.”
He inhaled. “I did?” His pupils were so dilated. You couldn't help but notice.
You nodded, breaking eye contact to look at the glowing lights of the Fish Eye down the road. “You did.”
“What happened after that?”
God. You were really about to tell him, weren't you?
You tried to calm your racing heart into slowing, forcing yourself to look back at him in front of you. “We… we did it. Right there.” You didn't wait for a reaction, you kept going, not wanting to give him time to speak. “You were all cocky and confident and it was all like- like fast and rough and you had to keep your hand over my mouth the whole time.”
For a moment, Aiden didn't react. He just stared at you like you'd sprouted wings and flown away.
Then, he reacted.
He ran a shaky hand through his short hair. “Jesus Christ.” He choked on the words, a breathless laugh leaving his lips. “You can't just… you can't just drop something like that on me.”
Your eyes widened and you shook your head. “Sorry- I'm sorry- I shouldn't have-”
“No.” He cut you off quickly and shook his head as well. “No- I didn't mean it like that. I just- shit… You shouldn't have told me something like that when I'm like… stupidly bold from this wine.”
You let out a short, airy laugh, your cheeks burning. “Why?”
“Because-” He managed a breathless laugh out his own, shaking his head and looking at you like it was obvious- which it was. “Because I'm like, ten seconds away from doing something stupid.”
You spoke before you could stop yourself. “Do it.”
Aiden let out a shaky breath and stepped forward. You thought he was about to kiss you, so you closed your eyes. They snapped back open when you felt his arms loop around your body and lift you clean off the floor. You gasped, barely holding onto your glass as he carried you back inside, shutting the door behind him with a foot.
He set you down right on your dining room table. You set your glass down with trembling fingers, your eyes wide and locked on the eager Pilgrim in front of you.
“Why'd I have to cover your mouth the whole time?” He rasped, his eyes scanning over you for signs that you might be joking. “Cause you were being too loud?”
You nodded quickly.
He let out a ragged breath, eyelids growing momentarily heavy as the idea shook him. Even though it was just a dream, knowing he was able to make you so loud he had to muffle your noises sent a boost of confidence through him. Or, maybe it was the alcohol emboldening him further.
Either way, he was kissing you before you could react.
Aiden kissed like he was on speed. His lips moved against yours quick and harsh, no regard for taking it slow and easy. You melted into him and wrapped your arms around his neck, tilting your head to immediately deepen the kiss.
His fingers trembled as they traveled down your waist. They stopped at the button to your pants and his tongue ran over your bottom lip.
You opened your mouth and let him slip his tongue inside you while he groaned, the sound caught in the back of his throat as he unbuttoned your pants.
He pulled back for air. His eyes were wild. “Did I… did I say anything to you?” He breathed against your wet lips as he pulled your zipper down. “In the dream. Was I- was I talking to you while I did it?”
You nodded again and braced yourself on your palms to lift your hips while he tugged your pants down. “Uh-huh. You kept telling me to be quiet.”
Aiden made a low, shuddering sound in the back of his throat. He moved aside to pull the fabric off your legs and let it fall to the floor at his feet before he stepped back between your knees. A hot, shaky hand traveled up the inside of your thighs, and equally hot fingers shook as they made contact with your core.
“Jesus…” He whispered, pushing the tips of his fingers between your slick folds. He watched your face, mesmerized by the expression on it as he traced up and down your slit. “You… you want it like that? Like the dream?”
Again, you nodded, biting your bottom lip to keep from making an embarrassing sound from something as simple as his fingertips.
He let out a harsh breath and nodded, circling your clit once before his impatience ran out and he fumbled to free himself from his pants. He unbuckled the needlessly complicated belt and shoved the fabric down just enough to pull his cock out, thick and flushed and glistening at the tip as he gave himself a desperate set of strokes.
You barely had time to admire it before he was shifting forward and pressing the tip against you. You had to angle your hips up to help him notch at your entrance, your weight awkwardly balanced on your hands on the table behind you.
He pulled you forward until you sat directly on the edge. You sucked in a gasp. He lined himself up, frantic and rushed, his breath coming out in short heaves of excitement, and pushed in.
A sharp cry left your lips before he cut it off with his palm pressed over your mouth.
You saw stars. He was so thick, so much thicker than you imagined, and he couldn't bottom out immediately. He groaned loudly, his mouth hanging open and eyes half lidded with pleasure. His weight came forward until he had you lying on your back, one hand pressed tight against your mouth, the other gripping your thigh to hoist up around his waist.
You got the hint and wrapped your legs around him, scooting down slightly to better the angle. Another sharp moan was muffled behind his hand as he rocked his hips forward and buried himself to the hilt.
So far, it was exactly like your dream. A hand over your mouth, him pressing you flat against the table with his chest over yours, his dick buried deep inside you. The only thing that was missing was the cocky finesse your unconscious mind gave him.
Aiden wasn't cocky. He was on top of the world. He'd only ever hoped to have you like this. For weeks he'd dreamed he'd win you over and find his way into your arms and between your legs. So he wasn't able to be slick and confident.
What he gave you was so much better, though.
At first, he held onto his control enough to give you a few slow, easy thrusts, opening you up for him and making you relax enough to take him deeper. You moaned into his palm, your eyes rolling back, your thighs clenching hard around his waist as your hips subconsciously rocked against him.
The restraint quickly faded into the starving pace of a man who'd been thinking about this for far longer than you have.
He pressed his hand down harder against your mouth and braced his feet wider, using the leverage of his body looking over yours to start fucking his dick into you fast and harsh. You squeezed your eyes shut tighter and cried out, the sound muffled.
“Oh… oh my God.” He panted against your jaw, his breath hot as he huffed. “Mmm’oh- f-fuuuck.”
You held onto his shoulders, your fingers clamping down hard on the sweaty fabric of his shirt. It was a miracle you were able to actually hold onto him with how frantically he was moving inside you.
“This how I did it?” His breath came out choppy from the force of his thrusts.
You nodded, looking up at him through half lidded eyes, moaning helplessly behind his hand.
Aiden groaned, his eyes rolling back at the idea of you dreaming about him like this. He forced his eyes back open and licked his bottom lip, giving you a particularly hard thrust. He groaned again when your yelp vibrated against his palm.
“What'd you do when you woke up?” He panted, his air hot against your skin as he leaned down to whisper in your ear. “Did you touch yourself?”
You nodded, whimpering as his thrusts slowed into more deeper movements.
He shuddered, his hips rolling nice and slow as you caught your breath. “F-fuck, you did…? You pretend it was my dick inside you while you did it?”
You nodded again.
“Jesus. Laid there in the dark… wishing it was me holding you down just like this.” He tightened his hold over your mouth, his other hand sliding up your hip to wrap around your wrists and pin them against your chest. “Am I right? Is that how you spent your morning…? Thinking about me?”
He needed to hear you say it. Even though you nodded, he moved his hand off your mouth and braced his weight on his elbow instead.
You licked your lips and swallowed. “I did.”
He gave an open mouthed grin of disbelief, shaking his head slightly, and rewarded your honesty with another deep grind.
“Aiden?” You exhaled, your voice trembling. “Have you…? Thinking about me?”
He let out a low, breathless laugh, shaking his head again. “You have no idea.”
“Tell me. Please?”
Aiden let out a little groan and flexed deep inside you, making you whimper as he pinned your wrists tighter against your chest. “Haven't slept a full night in weeks without waking up with my dick in my hand. I'd keep my eyes closed and pretend it was your mouth on me. Or-” he choked on another groan when he pulled out almost all the way and drove back in. “-fuck. I'd pretend you were under me, taking all of it, just like this.”
The revelation that Aiden had actually touched himself to the thought of you- more than once- had you suddenly clenching down around him, his words sending you over the edge.
Your jaw dropped and you sucked in a sharp cry, squeezing your eyes shut as your orgasm rippled through you.
Aiden buckled on top of you, pulling his hands away from your wrists to brace himself up on his elbows. His forehead dropped into the crook of your neck and he gasped, his hips jerking forward to bury himself as deep as possible while you came.
“Oh, God, Beautiful.” He choked out before planting sloppy kisses against the side of your throat, grinding you through your climax. “You coming? Fuck, are you coming?”
All you could do was moan out a slurred, “uh-huh!”, and wrap your arms around his neck.
He groaned low and ragged against your skin, nuzzling his nose under the curve of your jaw as he moved his hips in deep, grinding circles.
You were seeing stars.
Before you even had time to catch your breath, though, Aiden was pulling his head back to look down at you. His face was flushed and his eyes were so dilated you could barely tell they were blue.
“Beautiful, look at me.” He panted, his chest heaving against yours. “I'm right there. I'm so fucking close… can I show you?”
You were too much of a mess from the devastating orgasm that just rocked your entire world to immediately understand what he meant.
“Can I?” He rushed, his voice as much of a wreck as he looked. “Can I fuck you the way I've been losing my mind wanting to?”
A deep thrill went through your abdomen and you immediately nodded. “Uh-huh- please, show me-”
You didn't have a chance to finish before he was wrapping his arms around you and lifting you from the table. You were barely able to wrap your legs around him tight enough to keep yourself from falling, holding on tight, his cock still speared deep inside you as he carried you to your couch and laid you down.
The room was still spinning when he reached down and hooked his arms under your knees. He slid them over his shoulders, pinning your thighs tight against your chest in a deep, brutal press that folded you in half and exposed every inch of you to his thick cock.
It was so deep, too deep-
“Oh-” you gasped for air, your body jerking beneath him as the thick head of him hit the deepest part inside you.
He let out a guttural, shattered groan and slammed his hips forward again, burying himself so deep your vision went fuzzy around the edges. His upper half pressed you open tighter, his weight overwhelming, his body rock solid as he moved with a frantic, primal rhythm.
“F-fuck- Jesus, Beautiful.” His voice was wrecked. It broke into breathless hitches against your cheek. “Just like this.”
“Aiden-” you cried out, your nails digging into the skin of his biceps as he hammered his dick into you. “Oh my God.”
“I know, baby, I know…” he whined in response, his breath hot against your ear.
His whole body shook as he slammed into you again and again. He wasn't really keeping a steady pace anymore. He just drove himself in as far as his hips would go, over and over, desperate to get closer than physically possible. Each thrust had him buried balls deep, his pubic bone completely flush against yours, and he'd draw back until only the tip was stretching you before slamming it all back in.
You were crying at this point. Real tears of pleasure that stung and blurred your vision.
“A-Aiden- Aiden, fuck, please, please!” You sobbed out. You didn't know what you were even begging for. You wanted him to stop, slow down, keep going, and never stop, all at once. Your brain was short circuiting.
“I've got you…” he panted ragged and hot right over your ear, his hands sliding down your thighs to grab your hips and press them down hard against the cushions. “I've got you, baby, just take it for me.”
You nodded, turning your head to the side to give his mouth more access to your neck. He eagerly jumped at the opportunity to kiss and lick and suck on more of your skin, teeth grazing, his shaky breath fanning over the wet, purple marks he left.
His thrusts were wild and frenzied, his thick length dragging against your walls with every slam of his hips. You could tell by the way they had no rhythm whatsoever that he was close.
His skin was burning up, and he barely managed to pull back long enough to rip his shirt up over his head. You raked your eyes over his toned torso before he was back on you again, his hot chest smothering your already sweaty body.
It was getting harder not to let out every single sound he fucked out of you.
“Oh, oh- oh God-” you whined, a tear trailing down your cheek in a jerky pattern from the force of his thrusts.
“Yeah… cry for me, baby.” He rasped, planting open-mouthed kisses along the salty wet line from your jaw to the edge of your eye. “Let me hear you. F-fuck!”
Another harsh snap of his hips had moans spilling from both of you.
“Beautiful… fuck… I'm right there.” Aiden choked on a sharp whine, planting his hands on the cushion on either side of your head. He pushed himself up just enough to look down at your face, taking in your wrecked expression.
The sight made him shake.
“Please-” the word tumbled from his lips before he could realize what he was saying. “Please let me come inside you.”
The request had your second climax building before you could even process it. Your jaw dropped and you let out a ragged moan, your eyes fluttering shut again, your legs over his shoulders trying to pull him deeper.
“Please let me.” Aiden let out a pathetic whimper and fucked you faster, his hips driving into you with loud, sharp slaps like he could fuck the answer out of you quicker that way. “...anything you want, Beautiful- you can have anything, wh-whatever you want, just let me.”
The idea of him pulling out was almost heartbreaking to think about. You were going to ask him to come inside you anyway, but hearing him beg for it like that, like he was begging for his life, sent you over the edge easier than anything ever had before.
“Yes, oh my God-” you keened, arching under him as your body tensed up, overwhelming pleasure turning you into a weak, wild animal. “Fuck- A-Aiden-”
A broken gasp of disbelief tore from his throat at your words and the feeling of you coming around his cock again.
“Yeah? Yeah, baby?!” He rasped, his voice excited and trembling, barely holding himself back the few extra seconds he wanted to take to savor the sight and feel of you coming undone again. His chest shuddered against yours as your walls gripped him like a vice, and when he spoke again, the breathless encouragement made you squeeze him tighter. “Oh, good girl- fuck- thank you.”
You bit back a wail and nodded, squeezing your eyes shut as the frantic thrusting jerked your body an inch up the couch with each one.
Aiden was right behind you. You barely started coming down when he suddenly dropped his weight onto you again, his torso pressing your thighs flat against your chest, and he buried his face under your jaw.
“Fuck- Jesus, baby-” the moan broke as his rhythm turned feral. He fucked his dick into you at a rapid pace, the force behind his thrusts squeezing the air from your lungs as he pressed his body down as tight as he could on top of you.
He gave you a few more deep drives before he locked up. A long, guttural groan tore from low in his chest, a sound completely stripped of pride, raw and uninhibited.
He slammed his hips forward one last time, forcing his cock so deep to the hilt that you could feel him in your stomach.
“Yes-” was all he could manage, crying out against your jaw, his voice shattering into a breathless sob. He froze right there, staying locked balls deep, and a dramatic shudder ripped through his entire body. “Oh fuck- yes-” he throbbed violently inside you as he came, his cock flexing and twitching, his hips grinding hard and jerking with each spurt of cum.
You wrapped your arms around his neck again and buried your face in his hair. His breath was hot, panting heavily against the side of your face as his orgasm coursed through him. He slipped his arms under your back and pulled you even closer against him, folding you impossibly tighter, driving his dick unfathomably deeper. The action earned raw groans from both of you.
Aiden gave a few more short bucks of his hips, chasing every last pulse of ecstasy before he crumpled completely.
Neither of you made a move to pull away. He did release some of the pressure over you; loosening his arms around your body, letting your legs slide off his shoulders, and he stopped pressing so much of his weight onto you. He didn't pull out though, he didn't dare.
He kept his cock plugged deep while you caught your breaths and let your heart rates slow.
The room was silent aside from the sound of your lungs trying to remember how you work for a long time. Only when you were finally able to breathe through your nose again did he break that silence.
You were stroking his hair. He was kissing your neck up to your lips, where he lingered to taste the inside of your mouth again. You moaned weakly and he swallowed the sound as his tongue slid around yours.
After a long moment he finally pulled back, but not before giving you a quick kiss to the side of your mouth.
His short hair was ruffled from your fingers, his face was flushed down to his chest, and his bright blue eyes were softer than you'd ever seen them before.
“You okay?” He murmured, sliding his hand up from your waist to push your hair away from your face. His thumb stroked a soothing line over your temple.
You were practically purring. You nodded, your eyes barely managing to stay open to look up at him with slow blinks.
He gave a weak smile and a slow blink of his own.
“Hope you were serious when you said I could stay on your couch tonight.” He whispered, his smile turning into something more playful as he rubbed a gentle hand over your thigh. “Cause I don't even know if I can walk to your bathroom. I'm like… ten seconds away from passing out right here.”
You let out an exhausted laugh and nodded again, turning your head to kiss his shoulder. “Yeah, you can have the couch. But I'd like it more if you just slept with me.”
For a second he looked almost surprised at your offer. His expression melted into something achingly soft and a breath that mirrored your exhaustion left his lips.
“I was really hoping you'd say that.” His voice was a warm rumble in his chest and he leaned down to capture your lips again in a long, deep kiss. He finally pulled back and peeled himself off of you, but not completely; he only separated long enough to get his feet on the floor before he was picking you up and carrying you to your bedroom.
After cleaning yourselves up you curled up against each other under your cool, fresh sheets, both of you bare. Clothes felt too constricting after sex like that.
You were lulled into sleep almost immediately by the sound of his slow, deep breathing, each breath warm as they fanned over the back of your neck. His arm stayed locked around you all night, one thick thigh nestled between yours, his chest solid against your back.
Neither of you woke up once that night. You both slept a whole twelve hours just like that. And when you woke up wet the next day, you didn't need to pretend Aiden's cock was inside you when you came.
Summary: Kyle likes it rough when he's stressed out. You quickly find out that you do, too.
Warnings/Mentions: Unprotected sex, rough sex, biting/choking/slapping/spitting that goes both ways, kyle likes being hurt in bed
If someone told you a month ago that Kyle Crane would be coming to you for intimacy?
You would have believed them.
Kyle wasn't exactly subtle about it. He didn't look away when you caught him staring in the Tower. He would just give you a little nod and a half-smirk. He went out of his way to do things for you- bringing you ammunition, snacks he found on his runs, crafting materials for your melee weapons. He'd even offer to put the modifications on for you.
The compliments were pretty funny.
He would try to be subtle about it, but not so subtle you wouldn't understand what he was getting at.
“You've got some steady hands, kid. Bet you'd give a killer massage.” And then a little eyebrow raise like he was trying to see if you were interested.
A few hours later, he brought it up again. “Man, my back is fucking killing me.” A side glance in your direction.
It was only a matter of time before you found yourself here, in Kyle's favorite safe house.
A cute one bedroom apartment on the top floor of a building a few miles north of the Tower. He liked it so much that he'd started spending more and more nights here, away from the Tower.
“You uh, want a drink?” He asked. He had a generator hooked up in the place, keeping his food cold and his water warm. He even had the air conditioner running.
“Sure.” You smiled. You sat down on his couch and took your shoes off.
He got two beers from the fridge and cracked them open on the kitchen counter. He walked into the living room with you and handed you one of them before sitting down on the other side of the couch.
“You did good today.” He took a heavy swig from his bottle. “Real damn good. Might just start you on the payroll, keep you around more.”
You threw him a look.
“I'm serious.” He gave you a sincere expression. “I'm not just saying that. The way you took out that Viral with a coat rack? I fell in love. Got me all chubbed up.”
“Jesus, Kyle!” You laughed, a blush creeping up on your cheeks.
“Not even kidding.” He added. He took another big gulp of beer. “Any man would be lucky to have you fight by his side.”
Your smile softened, but your blush grew. You could feel it spreading down from your cheeks to your neck.
Or maybe it was just the beer.
“Speaking of,” he laid his arm over the back of the couch so casually you almost didn't notice, “-why don't you have a boyfriend? Or, do you, and you're just keeping him a secret?”
You scratched the back of your neck. “I uh… just… really limited options right now. And most of them are total assholes or the kind of guy who would lock me in the Tower to keep me safe.”
Kyle nodded as he listened, his eyes locked on you while he brought his beer to his lips and drank.
“That's a shame. You're a very beautiful woman. Doesn't seem fair that you're not taken care of.”
You glanced at him, studying his expression.
He was being honest, that was for sure. But he was being so forward about it, too. Forward enough without outright saying it.
He was cute. Handsome, really. But the way he acted made him cute. His sarcasm, that quick dry wit, and how he eagerly performed acts of service for you at any given opportunity.
Like a stray cat that desperately craved pets but didn't know how to go about it.
“Kyle?” You asked.
He blinked, swallowing his mouthful of beer. “Mhm?”
“Do you wanna blow off some steam?”
He let out a breath like it had been ripped from him. “Yeah- how do you mean?”
You rolled your eyes, and took a long, deep drink before setting it on the coffee table by his feet. You turned to face him, your eyes running over his face, lingering on his half-parted lips.
God, you hated having to be so direct.
“In bed.”
He let out another breath.
“Is that how your generation asks people out? I'm not complaining-”
You rolled your eyes and leaned forward to grab your beer.
Kyle thought you were trying to leave.
“Wait, don't-” he sighed, “-yes. I do. I really, really fucking do.”
Hooking up with someone like this felt awkward.
You were no sexually repressed woman, but you also weren't as experienced as you'd like to be. You didn't know what to do once it was out there in the open.
Kyle did. He knew exactly what to do.
He scooted closer to you on the couch, setting his empty bottle down on the table beside your half-empty one. His left hand reached for you, fingers grabbing your chin to tilt your head left towards him.
He didn't say anything.
He just leaned in and kissed you.
It took you a few seconds to get the hang of it. Kyle kissed slow and gentle at first, just enough to relax you, and then he built it up to the point where his tongue was sliding against yours and he was swallowing every noise you made.
It was intoxicating. He tasted and smelled the same way he looked. Like a hot, sweaty male at peak performance.
You didn't know what to do with your hands.
Kyle did. He knew exactly what to do.
He interlaced his fingers with yours and tugged, pulling you forward into his lap. His free hand settled on your waist, and then he was kissing you again.
It was easier to find somewhere to touch now. You placed your hands on his shoulders, fingers digging into the thick muscle there as his lips dragged down the line of your jaw.
Tingles spread all over your body as he planted open-mouthed kisses from your jaw to your neck. His lips brushed the front of your throat, his stubble scratching all the way down to your collarbones.
You let out a whimper.
He kissed back up to your mouth, his hand sliding from your waist to the back of your neck to hold you in place.
“Bite me,” he breathed against your mouth, his voice soft and wrecked, “right here.”
He punctuated it with a nip to your bottom lip.
You nodded, your eyelids too heavy to open up and look at him. You found his mouth again, his lips wet and warm from kissing you, and took his bottom lip between your teeth.
You didn't know how hard to bite, so you nipped him the same way he'd done you.
“Harder,” he exhaled.
You bit down harder.
He let out a quiet grunt, as if urging you on, his breath coming out quick and shallow. He squeezed your thigh with his free hand, his other gripping your neck.
The impulsive desire to bite down harder was too strong for you to ignore. Especially when he made that noise. You sank your teeth in again and bit down so hard you could feel the fat beneath the skin of his lips move around between your teeth.
Kyle moaned.
The sound was raw and unrestrained. He grabbed your hip and slid you closer, notching you right on top of his lap. His hips jerked up against you, grinding the outline of his cock against you through his jeans.
A groan caught in your throat. You squeezed his shoulder to steady yourself, trying not to headbutt him when he bucked up against you again.
“Just like that, baby.” He breathed, pulling back to run his tongue over his lip. You hadn't broken the skin, but you could see a deep purple impression of your bottom teeth in the middle of his lip.
“How do you want it?” He asked, leaning up to kiss your jaw again.
“How?” You murmured. Your eyes fell shut as his lips found your pulse point and sucked.
He nodded against your neck. “Yeah. You want me to be gentle?”
You couldn't think with the way he was kissing you. You shuddered, your head tilting to the side to give him more access. “I don't- I don't know-”
He cut you off by threading his fingers in your hair. He wrapped it in his grip at your scalp and pulled.
It wasn't gentle. It was sharp and painful and hard- he pulled your head back and sank his teeth into the crook of your neck.
A cry broke in your throat and you squeezed your eyes shut.
“You like that?” He muttered against the wet spot where he'd bit down. He rolled his hips up against you, dragging his erection against the seam in your jeans. “Tell me.”
“Uh-huh-” you gasped, “yeah-”
He groaned. “Good. That's how I want it too, sweetheart. Think you can do that? Think you can hurt me?”
You'd never hurt someone you liked on purpose before.
Well, you did punch Rahim’s shoulder once when he scared you so badly you dropped your cup noodles. And one time you pulled his ear when he called you an asshole because you wouldn't give him your last chocolate bar.
But you didn't think Kyle was asking you to do that.
“Yeah,” you said anyway. You'd figure it out.
Kyle purred in approval, rewarding you with a hand up your shirt. He slid his palm up your waist, squeezing around your ribs before he found your breast.
He ran a callused thumb over your hard nipple. He kissed the base of your throat as he pinched it between his thumb and forefinger, tugging lightly until you whimpered.
When he pulled back, you whined in protest.
“Let's get this bullshit off.” He grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it up and over his head.
You didn't have time to admire his well-toned chest before he was pulling your own shirt off.
“Take my belt off.” He said, his hands sliding back up your sides to cup your breasts. He played with them while you unbuckled his belt, squeezing and groping the tissue, rolling your nipples around between his fingers.
When you finally got his belt open he pulled back to wrestle his jeans down. He got them about an inch past his hips before he sighed in frustration, shaking his head.
“Fuck am I thinking. Come on. Got a whole queen in there I can fuck you on.” He jerked his head to the door on the other side of the room.
You didn't have time to react before he was picking you up, his arm sliding under your knees, his other supporting your back.
He fast-walked into the bedroom, kicking the door shut behind him.
The bed was messy, blankets rumpled and pillows scattered. It was a man's bed, you weren't surprised. Still, you had to dig a pillow out from under your back after he laid you down on it.
He took your clothes off for you, but he wasn't gentle about it. He dragged your pants down your legs so quickly he almost ripped you off the bed. He took his own pants off with the same regard, shoving them down to his ankles, where he kicked them off.
It was hot how impatient he was. He wanted to fuck you so badly that he was tripping over himself trying to get to you.
He sank onto his knees on the mattress, one between your thighs, the other outside of them. He braced one hand on the bed beside your shoulder, looming over you with a breathless grin on his lips.
“You have no fucking idea how long I've wanted to see you like this.” He whispered, sliding a hand up between your legs. His fingers brushed against the crotch of your panties, finding you damp and warm, and he shuddered in response.
“Fuck, you're so wet. Knew you wanted me just as bad.”
You would have rolled your eyes if you weren’t so caught up in the moment. Of course you wanted him just as badly. Maybe even more. He was Kyle Crane.
“Come here.” He nudged you until you sat up, and pulled you to the headboard. He sat against it and pulled you into his lap again, grinding you against his cock through your panties and his boxers.
You gripped onto his shoulders and rocked forward, dragging yourself along his length, pulling a groan from his lips.
You leaned down and kissed him again.
Not as gentle or tentative as before. You pushed your tongue between his lips, tasting Modelo and the faint trace of gum he'd chewed earlier.
When you bit his lip, you bit harder.
He gasped through clenched teeth, his pelvis bucking up into you.
You pulled back. “Was that too much?”
He shook his head quickly, sucking in a steadying breath. “No, baby.” He slipped his hand between your bodies, his fingers finding the edge of your panties. “I like it rough.”
He pushed them underneath the fabric and dragged his index finger through your folds, pressing down firm against your clit. You choked on a whine.
“Bite me again.” He urged, fingertip circling your clit. He leaned up and nipped at the skin over your pulse. “Right here.”
You obliged him instantly, dipping your head down. He tilted his head, giving you more access, and you sank your teeth down. Your jaw trembled from the feeling of those skilled fingers between your thighs.
He shuddered under you, his finger stroking you quicker. “That's it. Keep going.”
You rocked against his hand and slid your mouth across his throat to the other side of his neck, nudging his head to the side with your face before you bit at the crook of his neck.
His cock throbbed underneath you.
He reached for it with his free hand, moving you back just enough to pull himself out of the confines of his boxers.
You pulled back to look at it.
He was so hard it looked like it hurt. He was surprisingly thick, seeing it made your heart skip a beat. The head was slick with precum, and he smeared it around with the pad of his thumb.
You leaned up and took your panties off without prompting.
By the time you slid back in his lap he had spit in his palm and stroked it across his cock, filling the room with the wet sounds of his hand sliding back and forth over it. It was vulgar and obscene and dirty and it made your heart race.
You gripped his shoulder and hovered over him, watching as he grabbed the base of his dick and held it in place for you.
You sank down.
The head slid between your folds, missing its mark and bumping roughly against your clit.
He let out a sharp breath through his nose and held himself tighter, his other hand squeezing your hip. He pulled you down again, his movements impatient and hurried.
You sucked in a gasp as his tip notched against you.
“Slow,” you warned, digging your nails into the skin of his shoulder, “just for a minute.”
Kyle nodded quickly. He relaxed under you, having not noticed the way his entire body had been tense, every muscle flexed.
You lowered yourself at your own pace. You savored the way his thick tip stretched you, it burned and stung and made you wince, but it was Kyle doing it. He could spit in your face and you'd ask him to do it again.
Your breath caught at the thought. You took him deeper, another burning inch, and clenched around him.
“Jesus Christ-” he choked the words out, digging his fingers into the flesh of your thighs, “-fuck, you feel so good. God.”
You buzzed at the compliment, rewarding him with another inch, bearing the sting for him.
It earned you another low groan in response.
His hips rocked up just barely, pushing himself in half an inch.
You had the thickest of him inside of you now. The rest went smoother, but you still went slow.
When your ass finally met his lap, both of you were past the point of impatient.
“Good?” He asked, lifting his hips slightly, pressing his tip against your cervix.
You nodded, too overwhelmed to speak.
He let out a shaky breath and slid his hands up from your thighs to your hips. He gripped you tight, pushed you up a few inches, and gave a quick, sharp thrust.
You gasped. Your upper body swayed toward him and you had to slap your palms against his chest to keep from colliding with him.
He grunted under you and thrust up again.
“Fuck.” He breathed out. “There it is.”
You moaned and rolled your hips down to meet his thrusts, matching his steady rhythm. It was quick, but it wasn't what you needed.
“More,” you whined, your hand sliding up his chest to wrap around the side of his neck for leverage.
He didn't respond. His eyes were locked on the way his dick disappeared every time he bucked his hips up to meet yours.
You slapped him.
His eyes fell shut, a ragged breath ripping from his lungs. His dick twitched inside you and he pulled you down on it, burying himself to the hilt.
“Again.” He pleaded, looking up at you with half-lidded eyes.
You slapped him again with excessive force, much harder, the sound loud and sharp and jarring.
His head snapped to the side. You could see the imprint of your hand blooming pink on his cheek.
You'd never slapped anyone that hard before. Your palm stung like you'd burned it on something, but it quickly faded to a warm buzz.
Kyle turned his head back, a breathless grin spreading across his parted lips. He looked drunk. Like he'd finished a whole twelve back of beer instead of a single bottle.
His eyes, half-lidded and glassy, met yours. He bucked up hard, making your entire body jolt from the force of it.
“Do it again.” He exhaled, grinding up deep and pulling you down hard to meet it.
You almost hesitated. But then he rolled his hips in a way that had his tip rubbing against that spot inside you, and you had to reward him for that.
You drew your hand back further than the last time, and brought it down with more force.
He grunted when you slapped him. Not after, when the pain and pleasure set in, but during.
An uncontrollable response to being hurt. He'd held it in the last two times you'd hit him.
This time he couldn't stop it.
He groaned after. That same drunk grin came back and he let out a ragged breath through his lips, looking up at you through half-lidded eyes.
“Again.”
You hit him again. Heard that same uncontrollable grunt, louder this time.
“Sorry.” He drawled, thrusting up. “I can't get enough.” He grinned up at you, sliding his hand up from your hip to your hair. He grabbed a handful and tugged, yanking your head back to expose your throat to him.
He sank his teeth into the side of your neck and held onto you, sliding the arm that wasn't choking you around your waist. He flipped you with ease, keeping his cock buried inside.
He sank deeper in this angle, gravity helping him press his full bodyweight against your pelvis.
You choked on a whimper, digging the tips of your nails into his shoulders.
He hummed against your neck in approval. He released his teeth-gritting hold on your skin and pulled back so he could look down at you.
“Wanna see how it feels?” He rocked forward without drawing back, grinding against that same spot.
You hesitated. You didn't know if you would like being slapped.
But again, it was Kyle.
You nodded.
He grinned, rolling his hips once before he braced himself on one hand beside your head.
His hand hovered in the air for a second, like he was savoring the way your eyes squeezed shut instinctively. Or maybe he was hesitating.
And then he brought it down and slapped you.
It wasn't painful, more of a shock to the system than anything.
Still, you whimpered behind your pressed lips, your body jolting out of surprise.
“How's that?” He murmured, palming your cheek with unusually gentle strokes. He pulled back a few inches and drove back in, rocking your body against the mattress.
You moaned and opened your eyes. He was looking down at you with blown eyes, pupils fully dilated, his lips parted as he breathed through them. He wasn't grinning anymore, and his eyes weren't on the verge of closing. He was alert.
“Uh-huh.”
His lips twitched. He rolled his hips. “Yeah? Again?”
You nodded.
He slapped you again, harder, forcing a choked out whimper from your throat. He groaned at the sound and increased his pace, spreading your thighs wider with his hand before he caught you off guard with another slap.
You gasped, clenching around him. “Oh, God-”
“Yeah?” The words rushed out, soft and urging, "You like that?”
You nodded quickly. You braced your feet on the bed and lifted your hips slightly, taking him deeper.
He groaned in response, and slapped you again. Before you had time to react he hooked his thumb over your bottom teeth, and turned your head from where your cheek hit the mattress, guiding you to look up at him.
He leaned down…
…And spit in your mouth.
Your breath caught in your throat. You swore you saw stars.
When he pulled his thumb out of your mouth you swallowed his saliva without even thinking.
“Again.” You whined. You opened your mouth, looking up at his face over yours with blatant heart-eyes.
He grinned, that same wicked grin he gave you the first time you hit him. He inhaled deeply and spit on your waiting tongue, putting more force behind it. It was filthier than the first time. It felt almost like an insult.
Then he hooked his arms under your knees and pushed up, bending your legs and applying pressure to them until your knees met the mattress beside your ribs.
“Fuck-”
The new angle opened you up more for him, made the grip tighter, gave him room to fuck into you without your thighs in the way.
He took full advantage of it.
He leaned up on his knees on the bed and let his upper body fold over you. He held himself up with his elbows braced beside your shoulders and leaned down, pressing a kiss to the side of your forehead.
It was so surprisingly gentle that it made you melt. Your eyes fluttered shut and he kissed your temple.
“So beautiful,” he murmured, rocking forward on top of you. “So pretty, baby.”
You whined, tilting your head to the side as his lips pressed against your cheekbone.
The roughness he kept talking about set in then.
His hand wrapped around your throat and squeezed. His hips drew back until only his tip remained in you, and then he drove it back in, all at once, forcing a yelp from your mouth. He did that again. And again. He set a quick and deep pace, slamming his hips against you so hard and rough that you could barely breathe.
You didn't even need to touch yourself. You came from that alone.
“Kyle!” You groaned, the sound whiny and drawn out.
“Yeah?” He answered, his voice choppy from his ragged pace. “Oh, fuck- you gonna come? F-fuck, baby, are-” He cut off when your hips started grinding against him, an answer on its own to his question.
Kyle moaned- the sound raw and unintentional- at the feeling of you clenching and pulsing around him.
“That's it, baby... There you go... Come on, come on.” He talked you through it in a low and soothing voice, slowing his pace so it wouldn't disrupt your orgasm. He turned so suddenly thoughtful and sweet that it made your heart swell.
“Kyle-” you slurred, digging your nails into the forearm of the hand around your throat. “Oh, Kyle,”
He squeezed your throat harder, cutting off the blood to your head, making your vision turn fuzzy and dark at the edges. “I've got you.”
It made the blunt of your orgasm feel so much more intense. But it made the tail end of it feel muffled. It muted the feeling of him ramming into you.
And then, when he released the pressure, everything came flooding back to you, too fast, too overwhelming.
He was hitting so deep inside of you, pressing your thighs back further until they burned from the stretch, it made it hard to breathe, and he wasn't even choking you anymore.
“Take it.” He groaned through gritted teeth, thrusting faster, chasing his own pleasure now, “-fuck- f-fucking take it.”
He punctuated each word with a thrust, driving his cock in as deep as physically possible, hitting that spot that had you turning into a limp drooling mess.
“Yeah, fuck,” he let out a raw and unrestrained noise, the sound coming up from deep within his gut. “-Oh- h-hah-”
You regained enough of your bearings to remember what he'd been saying all night. He liked it rough.
Wanted it to hurt.
You had to give that to him.
You had to.
He'd just given you the best orgasm of your life and neither of you had even really touched your clit.
You pushed your legs out of his grip, extending your knees to grip his hips and tug them to the side.
He understood what you were trying to do, which was an impressive feat for the state he was in. He grabbed onto your waist and rolled to the side, letting you slide your thigh over him and push him the rest of the way over onto his back.
Your body was jelly. Your legs trembled around him. Your vision went static when you pushed yourself upright.
You let your hips hover a few inches over his waist, barely managing to hold yourself up by your knees on the bed on either side of his waist. You let him set the pace, thrusting up inside you, leaving you focusing instead on making it better.
You slapped him hard.
He keened.
“Nnn-oh, god-” He arched under you, his jaw dropping, his eyes squeezing shut. “Yeah, yeah. M-more, baby, so fucking close-”
You wrapped your left hand around his neck and choked him the way he'd choked you, digging your fingers onto the sides of his throat.
He groaned in approval. “F-fuck- baby, please don't stop. Don't stop- don't stop-”
You leaned down, your eyes locking on the muscle on his shoulder. When your teeth sank into his deltoid, his thrusts faltered. His pace turned sloppy.
He wrapped his arms around you and pulled you down fast, knocking your bare chest against his. He held you flush against him, his hold on you tight and unwavering in its pressure.
You moved your mouth off of him, moving to reach the crook of his neck. You bit him there and rolled your hips in tight circles, drawing it out of him.
Kyle gasped, the sound sharp and dry. His eyes fell shut and his mouth hung open. He held you tighter and ground up into you, bracing his feet on the bed so he could lift his hips in an attempt to get impossibly deeper. His tip pressed flush against your cervix, and then he stilled.
He held you tightly in place as he came.
You released your grip on his throat, letting the blood rush back to his head as his orgasm passed through him.
His hips twitched once.
He made a noise like he was trying to say something- baby, maybe- but it just sounded like slurred letters. His chest stuttered against yours as he sucked in uneven breaths.
You pulled your teeth out of the deep indents they'd left in the meat of his skin, and pressed a kiss there.
He ground his cum up into you with his pelvis in tight rolls like he was trying to make it stick. Keep it in you.
He sighed.
After the peak of his climax hit, he gained a little control back. His palms slid down to your ass, where he grabbed hold with both hands and tugged you down harder. He gave a few slow, lazy grinds, drawing out the last faint pulses from his cock.
When you were starting to catch your breath, he swallowed hard and spoke. “You okay?”
You nuzzled your face against his neck and nodded. “Mmhmm. You?”
He let out a breath and nodded too. “Yeah. Very.”
You would have laughed if you weren’t so worn out. You smiled instead, lips curling up against his sweat-damp skin.
His hands slid up from your ass, his touch gentle now, and traced his fingers up your spine.
You pulled your face out of his neck and looked down at him.
His eyes opened into slits at your movement. His cheeks were still pink, but the print from your hand was red. Little round bite marks covered his neck and shoulders. There was a red ring around his throat from your grip- your eyes lingered there to watch his adams apple bob when he swallowed.
One of the hands on your back moved to reach for your face. He brushed his thumb over your cheek. The rough callus made the burn from his slap noticeable again, and you clenched around him without even meaning to.
He let out a breath at the feeling, his eyes fluttering shut before he forced them open again. He rolled his hips once, earning an equal reaction from you as his half-hard dick ground against your front walls.
“Oh-” You shivered.
He brushed his fingers through your hair, gently pulling out the snags that had formed from you rolling around on the bed with him.
“Thank you.” He muttered, pulling his hand from your hair to stroke your shoulder. “Needed that.”
You gave a weak smile. “Don't thank me. Was just as much for me as it was for you.”
The corner of his mouth tugged into a tiny grin, almost shy. It was strange, in an endearing way, the way he could go from spitting on you and choking you to looking up at you like you were the only girl left in the world.
“I didn't hurt you, did I?” He asked quietly, the grin leaving. His voice came out so worried it made your heart swell. “I didn't- I shouldn't have hit you like that.”
You could see the regret set in his features in real time.
Kyle Crane, slapping a woman.
If anyone had told you that before now, you would've laughed.
You shook your head quickly. “No. Well- yeah, you did, that was kind of the whole point.” You leaned down and kissed the skin between his brows.
He squeezed your bicep.
“Sorry.” He exhaled, the sound ragged. “Just- good way to get it out. Usually do it myself. End up with busted knuckles and a very unfazed wall.”
You managed a soft laugh.
Kyle Crane, punching walls.
Now that, you easily believed.
“It was nice.” You admitted. “I see why you like it. Feels like I just took a valium.”
He chuckled, his brows lifting, impressed, like you just put it into perfect words. “Yeah. That'll do it.”
You didn't speak for a few minutes. You just laid your head down on his shoulder and closed your eyes, focusing on the heavy thudding of his heart under your chest.
He stroked your back with one hand, the other brushing lazy fingers through your hair. He went soft inside you, but he made no move to pull himself out.
You could've fallen asleep like that.
It was like he read your mind.
“You sleepy?” He murmured.
You nodded against his neck.
He hummed. “Me too.”
He waited a few seconds. “You don't have to go home if you don't wanna. Y'know. Can just… stay here tonight.”
You smiled even though he couldn't see it.
“Yeah?”
He nodded a little too quickly. “Yeah. If you want. Showers got hot water. And soap that doesn't make your skin feel like rubber.”
You pushed yourself up on your elbows. He tried, and failed, to meet your gaze.
“Do you want me to stay?”
His nostrils flared, and it looked like he'd just deflect again with a, ‘if you want’, but he just inhaled deep, and nodded.
Summary: You're one of the first people Kyle runs into after escaping the Baron's lab. Instead of treating him like a weapon, a soldier, or something to be feared, you treat his wounds and feed him. He finds himself coming to see you again and again, bringing food, supplies, unable to stay away but unable to let himself get too close in fear of hurting you. You eventually get under his skin and he gives in to his urges, not expecting to lose full control with you in your own bed.
Warnings/Mentions: Unprotected sex, mentions of violence, blood/wounds, a little angsty, Kyle cries at one point, beast mode sex, biting/marking
Notes: First time writing Kyle going into beast mode during sex, was kinda hard tbh I didn't wanna make it too rough but at the same time I wanted to make it realistic. Hope you enjoy either way! (Yes Kyle just pissed on your tree to mark his territory leave him alone)
The last thing you needed right now was this.
The last thing you needed right now was a mountain of a man standing in front of you, shirtless, broad chest heaving, hands covered in blood and twitching at his side. His teeth were bared at you like you were the threat. His eyes were laser focused on every move you made.
You didn't expect to run into him, it just happened. You were out in the woods near the Monastery when he came barreling through the treeline, chasing down a group of the Baron's men. He tore them to shreds and ate their bullets like they were made of cotton. Roared so loud it echoed off the mountainside. Then turned on you when the men were dead and you were the only thing left breathing in a one mile radius.
You'd somehow managed to convey you weren't a threat. Held up your hands and backed away. His posture relaxed and he stopped snarling at you, but he didn't stop that ragged, out of breath panting.
Your caring nature didn't let you leave that man when you saw the injuries covering him. Even though he didn't look in pain, you still stepped forward, slowly drawing out a bandage from your bag.
He calmed down enough to let you bandage the worst wound. He even spoke.
“I'm sorry.” His voice was deep and hoarse, as if he hadn't used it for a while. “I didn't mean to scare you.”
You shook your head and offered a shaky smile as you clipped the bandage into place around his shoulder. “It's okay. You're from the lab, aren't you?”
He nodded. His right eye wasn't glowing red anymore, it was that same silvery blue you'd seen in the eyes of the others the Baron had experimented on.
“I have clean water and food at my place. It's only a few miles from here.” You offered, something that most people would never do after seeing him tear those armed men to shreds.
You thought you would feed and help him and he'd be on his way to get the hell out of Castor Woods. That's what most of the others did after escaping the lab. Took off and never looked back.
He came back a day later with a bag. You didn't see him, you weren't home at the time, but you knew it was him when you got back and saw the contents of the bag laid at your front door. Bandages, bottles of water, and food. Much more than what you'd given him.
He was repaying you, that's all.
That's what you thought, until the next day, when he was back again.
“Hey, listen….” He sighed after you'd stepped outside to join him on your porch.
He sounded like he was still trying to figure out what to say to you.
“I just wanted to thank you for the other day.” He continued, his voice low, looking you straight in the eyes as he spoke. “I was in a bad spot. And you- you really don't know how much I needed that.”
“Of course.” You murmured, looking him over. His wounds were all healed. He barely had a pink scar on the wrist that had that gash you'd nearly considered stitching up.
He nodded once, his eyes drifting downwards as he reached in the pocket of his coat. He pulled out a radio and held it out towards you with that rough, scarred hand. “Take it. If you ever need anything…”
You took it.
“Name's Crane, by the way. Kyle Crane.”
You ended up helping Kyle Crane again soon. It was late, you were almost home after a trip to Town Hall to trade foraged plants for medicine when you heard it- that same deafening roar that echoed in the valley.
He sounded close. You ran towards the sound, and twenty minutes later, you found him.
He was kneeling in the middle of a field with blood all over him again. More of the Baron’s soldiers laid limp around him, arms and legs and heads torn off and strown in different directions. The heels of his palms pressed into his eyes. His chest shuddered with each breath he struggled to take in.
He was hurting. He'd only been free man a few days now, after thirteen long years of torture. Most of that was spent in agony, unconscious, or so drugged up he could barely breathe on his own. His body and mind had been warped into something he barely recognized anymore.
Now that he was out, the sheer gravity of it was hitting him hard.
He heard you running up to him. He smelt that it was you. He didn't bother trying to pretend like he wasn't crying. He was too tired.
“Kyle?” You dropped to your knees in front of him, your voice so heavy with concern it made him choke up. “What happened?” You heard that strangled sound in his throat and reached for his wrists. “Hey, hey… What happened?”
He let you pull his hands away from his face. Just seeing you in front of him, looking at him with that much compassion in your eyes, made him feel better and worse at the same time.
He hadn't had a woman look at him like that since… he couldn't remember.
“I'm gonna kill him.” Kyle's voice came out all wrong. It trembled with fury. He sounded weak. He felt weak. “I'm gonna f-fucking kill him if it's the last motherfucking thing I do.”
You took him back to your place again that night. This time, you didn't let him leave after.
You cleaned the blood off of him with a wet rag. Washed out his wounds with alcohol and bandaged them even though you knew now that they'd be healed by tomorrow. You directed him to your bedroom and let him sleep on your bed even though he protested and insisted he could sleep on the couch.
He was gone before you woke up the next morning. Your back ached from sleeping on the couch.
That evening he brought you more items; bandages, rubbing alcohol, food, water, even new clothes.
You turned the soft sweater over in your hands, running your fingers over the fabric. “You don't need to-”
“I want to.” He cut you off. “Let me. Please.”
It didn't stop at supplies.
He stuck around a few hours after dropping them off and reinforced the fence around your house. The next morning, he came back and added another set of locks to your doors. He came back again at night and installed UV lights over all your windows.
You were starting to feel like this wasn't about paying you back anymore.
One evening you heard over the radio that he killed a Chimera a few miles south of you. He was sharing the channel with someone else, the woman that lived in the Monastery, and she was asking him to deliver a sample to her. A few hours later, at dusk, when a group of survivors from the nearby settlement were at your house, Kyle came back.
He was bloody and tired. He didn't knock- he didn't need to anymore- he just walked inside. The exhaustion left his body when he saw there wasn't just one woman standing inside, there were four people he didn't recognize standing around her.
His nostrils flared and he stood up straighter, not expecting to be around more than just you. His eyes scanned the room and locked on you. You didn't look scared. You looked like you might have been laughing a moment ago.
The room fell silent as all eyes shifted to the large bloody male standing in the doorway.
“Kyle.” You breathed. You glanced around your friends, looking just as caught off guard as he did, then looked back to him. “Hey.”
“Hey.” He managed a curt nod. He studied the two men standing close to you and shut the door behind him without turning around.
“Kyle? Kyle Crane?” The only other woman raised her brows, throwing a look in your direction.
“Holy shit.” The male standing behind her whispered.
“Okay, guys-” you cleared your throat. “It's getting dark. You should get back before it gets too late.”
They were all still looking at Kyle, who stood unmoving. He realized he was standing directly in front of the door with blood all over him and he stepped to the side, grabbing the knob and twisting. He opened the door and held it open.
They filed out one by one, quiet and uneasy from the thick tension in the air, only the woman glancing back to say goodbye to him and you. Kyle gave her a polite nod in return before closing the door behind her. He looked back to you the second the lock clicked.
“Who were they?” He asked.
“A few friends from that settlement in the mountain.” You set down the bag you'd been holding onto the living room table.
He grunted in acknowledgement and took a few steps forward. “...Everything okay?”
You looked up, nodding, and gave him a soft smile like the one you'd given him the day you met. “Mhm. They come every Friday and bring me chicken and eggs and I give them vegetables.”
He nodded. He'd seen your garden when he fixed your fence, it was large and impressive, full of fresh food. You were living on a goldmine, of course you'd be trading it.
You didn't know why Kyle was acting like that. You assumed it had something to do with the way his mind had been altered from the Baron. He wasn't like most men anymore. He was a lot more direct- not verbally, at least, it was more of the way he behaved.
Bringing you supplies, not to repay you but to provide for you. Securing your home, not to repay you but to keep you safe. Kyle was almost instinctually masculine in the way he treated you.
Not traditionally in the chivalrous way some men were- which he was, but that wasn't the point- it went further back than that.
Like leaving signs of him around your place as if to ward something off. A torn shirt that was clearly from a man hung at the corner of your fence, an extra pair of his shoes he ‘forgot’ at your front door, and something else that he didn't know you saw.
Kyle thought he was being discreet when he did it. He went outside, stood behind the tree right at the entrance to your fence, and left another… sign that you doubted humans would pick up on. Maybe animals, if they were still around. Or maybe Volatiles, if they even cared about the smell of male pheromones marking territory.
You'd caught a glimpse of his posture from your window and raised a brow in disbelief and amusement, but you didn't comment on it later. You knew he knew what he was doing, you weren't going to question it.
Even if he did remind you of a dog.
Kyle was still having trouble getting used to his new… everything. He was a lot bigger and stronger than he used to be. Taller, wider, faster. He could smell things he never even knew had a smell before, like how people smell when they're scared, or angry, or happy.
He loved the way you smelled when you were happy. He loved the way you smelled all the time. He came by the next morning to bring you something just to breathe you in when you smiled.
Your eyes lit up when you saw the military grade rifle. He inhaled deeply, watching you turn it over with a neutral expression on his face.
You smelled happy for a moment, and then it shifted into something that made his heart drop.
“Kyle?” You finally spoke, looking up. Your expression made that feeling in his chest worse.
“You don't like it.”
“No- I love it. It's just…” you swallowed, shifting the gun in your grip, “you're not just doing this because you think you owe me or- or feel bad for me, are you?”
For a heartbeat, he was too caught off guard to respond. Then his jaw clenched and his eyes widened. “What? The hell makes you say that?”
“I don't-”
“You think I'm doing this out of fucking charity?” He gaped at you, brows furrowed. “I'm keeping you alive because-” because if something happens to you, he won't have a single reason to stay human.
He forced his voice to lower and soften, taking a deep breath. “I just wanna make sure you're taken care of. Can I do that? Will you let me do that, please?”
You were momentarily taken aback by the intensity. You nodded. “I'm sorry. Thank you. I just-” want to know he's doing this because he feels the same way you feel. You didn't finish the sentence. You just set the gun down and invited him in for breakfast.
He came back that same night covered in blood again.
You'd only known Kyle maybe a week now. It felt like years, at this point. You knew so much about him. You knew even more just from subtext, things he never actually told you verbally but told you with his actions.
You knew for sure he was still more beast than man. You knew he didn't have control of himself yet. He got shocked by your fence once when he was fixing it and the sudden jolt sent him into that Volatile state you'd only ever seen that first day. You were just grateful you'd been inside when it happened.
You were making dinner over the pot in your fireplace when he stumbled in. He barely got the door shut behind him before you were pulling him to sit down in your dining room chair.
“What happened?” You asked as you helped him get his jacket off. “Did you find another Chimera?”
He shrugged the fabric off with a wince. “There was an ambush.”
Your eyes widened. “The Baron?”
He nodded. His eyes wouldn't meet yours.
There was a long stretch of silence as you cleaned the blood off his face and arms.
Kyle broke it.
“A group of survivors heard the gunfire and came to help.” His voice was weak and began to tremble the more he spoke. “They w-were… they were on my side. They were trying to help me.”
He couldn't say the rest, but he didn't need to. Your heart dropped and the rag on his knuckles fell still in your grip. You didn't speak. What could you even say? It's not your fault? That was true, but Kyle didn't believe that.
It was the Baron’s fault he ripped those innocent people to shreds. It was the Baron’s torture that gave Kyle the ability to turn into a blind, feral beast with a single minded lust for blood.
One day he would get a hold of it. A few more Chimeras, more practice, more training. You knew it, he knew it. That didn't make him feel any better now, though.
“He broke everything inside me.” Kyle breathed, his eyes locked on some non specific point on the floor. “My mind. My body. I don't even-” he sucked in a breath, “-I don't even know whose voice is in my head anymore.”
You set the rag aside and placed your hands over his, lowering yourself to kneel on the floor between his spread legs.
Kyle pulled them away, his face twisted in pain that wasn't physical. “Don't.”
“Kyle-”
“Do you know what these hands have done? Today alone?” He gave a humorless scoff, shaking his head. “Can't even fucking call ‘em hands anymore. They're weapons. How am I supposed to hold you with weapons?”
You froze, looking up at him with widening eyes. He seemed to realize what he'd said at the same time and cursed under his breath, his gaze immediately breaking away from you.
“I shouldn't even be here.” He sighed. “I'm putting you in danger just fucking talking to you.” That wasn't debatable. You knew it, he knew it. If those soldiers ever saw Kyle here they'd wait until he left and take you in for leverage. Maybe even worse.
“No.” You shook your head. “Don't leave.”
His eyes dropped back down to you between his knees. They softened. He couldn't leave. Not when you were looking up at him and asking in that sweet, soft voice. He was too selfish to leave. Too greedy.
He hated himself even more at the realization that he'd rather stay here and put you in danger than never see you again.
“I'm not gonna leave.” He murmured, reaching down to brush a piece of hair out of your face. His hand, the same hand he'd ripped that survivors arm off with, caressed your cheek so carefully it made his teeth ache. He rubbed his thumb over your cheekbone and sighed at the way you leaned into his touch like you weren't scared of him at all.
He stayed the night again, sleeping on your couch. He stayed and ate the breakfast you made for him, over easy eggs and potatoes from your garden. He left around lunch and promised he'd be back after he tracked down intel on some scientist.
It happened again.
He'd gone into that beast state three times that evening. He was getting better at controlling it, somewhat. He still went into it involuntarily, but at least now he was learning how to force himself to come out of it.
At least, he thought he was learning.
He found another Chimera. It was massive. He fought until he couldn't fight anymore, and then he turned. Even after the Chimera was nothing more than a bloody pile of flesh he was still turned. He mindlessly tore through everything that so much as twitched, and came to his senses surrounded by bodies.
Biters, Virals, humans. They were just Bandits, but for one heart stopping second he thought he saw your mutilated form lying there at his feet. It shocked him so bad he vomited after realizing it wasn't you.
He ignored Olivia on the radio and went straight to your house behind the Monastery. He shouldn't be going there after that.
That had to have been a sign from a higher power that he wasn't only putting you in danger of the Baron. He was the danger.
He needed to leave while he was ahead. Break two hearts and be done with it.
He opened your door. He didn't even realize he had tears in his eyes until you looked at him with that pained expression.
He didn't object when you came to him with comfort. He let you comfort him on your couch, neither of you caring about the fact he was staining it red. He leaned into your touch and spat venom about himself and the Baron while his hands shook in his lap.
“I'm fucking terrified.” His voice trembled. “I'm fucking terrified one day I'm gonna turn and not turn back.”
“That's not gonna happen.” You murmured.
“It might.”
You shook your head. “It won't. Not if you keep fighting. Keep working with Olivia.” And even softer, you added, “keep coming to me.”
Kyle let out a sharp breath, his eyes closing. He breathed in deep. You smelt like you were hurting, but you didn't smell scared. You didn't smell conflicted or uneasy.
He exhaled and opened his eyes. “You're ridiculous, you know that?” The words came out choked, but the corner of his mouth twitched up.
You smiled softly, raising a brow. “Am I?”
“Anyone else with half a brain would have told me to fuck off the day I ran up on you in the woods. But you…” He gave a shaky breath of a laugh, shaking his head in disbelief. “You tell me to keep coming back.”
You nodded, your smile growing. “I do.”
His own smirk widened, before suddenly fading. His eyes scanned over your face before he spoke again, his voice coming out quieter than he expected. “Why is that?”
Your smile faded, and you shrugged one shoulder. “Because I like you.”
“You like me.” He repeated, giving a gruff, self-deprecating chuckle. “Yeah. You're even stupider than I thought.”
“Maybe.” You grinned. “Maybe I just see more than what you think you are now.”
He watched you for a moment.
“It's been… God.” His breaths came out a little faster now and he swallowed hard, his throat bobbing as he tried to speak without breaking again. “I don't even know how long it's been since I've had someone look at me the way you do.”
You didn't look at him like he was a threat or a weapon or a tool you could use to your advantage. You very well could use him as a tool for your protection and he would absolutely let it happen. You could give him a post outside your house and he'd spend the entire night out there just to see you look at him like this again.
You were the first woman to look at him like a man since before Harran.
“Back then I was a normal guy.” He chuckled then. “Well. As normal as a Green Beret can be.”
You listened carefully as he spoke, not wanting to miss any of it. It was rare that Kyle spoke about anything like this for more than a minute at a time. You knew he had to have a military background, but you didn't know he was an elite soldier.
Kyle continued after a moment. “I don't know how to do it anymore.”
“Do what?” You asked quietly.
He gestured vaguely between you. “This. I'm not a man anymore. I'm one bad day away from turning into one of those things that keeps you scared at night.”
“That's not going to happen.” You repeated.
“But what if it does?” He looked back at you beside him, his gaze suddenly intense. “I don't want to hurt you. I'm- I'm fucking scared to death I'm gonna hurt you, sweetheart.”
You opened your mouth to object, but he cut you off.
“No, listen to me.” His voice dropped to a desperate whisper. His hand trembled near your knee, dying to pull you closer but terrified of what he might do if he did. “I haven't held a woman in so long I forgot what it feels like. I haven't been like this with one since I was human. I'm-” he inhaled, shaking his head, “Jesus Christ. I'm fucked up now. I don't remember how to be gentle.”
You reached for his big hand and wrapped your fingers around it, stroking the inside of his palm with your thumb. “You haven't been anything but gentle with me.”
It had barely been more than a week since you'd met him. Barely over a week since he escaped from the lab. But he had never hurt you, not once, not even by accident. You doubted he would start now.
His eyes followed his hand as you pulled it up to your neck. He didn't pull away when you guided him to caress the side of it, and he didn't pull away when your hand slid down to hold his wrist.
You closed your eyes when you felt his thumb give your neck a gentle stroke, back and forth over your pulse point.
Kyle forced himself to take a steadying breath, terrified that if he moved more than this that he'd snap your neck without meaning to.
Beneath his callused hand, nothing happened.
“Forgot how soft women are.” He murmured, his voice cracking. “You're so soft. Jesus. You feel perfect.”
“Kyle?” You whispered, your fingers traveling up his arm, brushing over the dried blood caught on his hair.
His eyes flicked back up to meet yours. “Yeah?”
“Will you kiss me?”
Instead of answering, he let out a shaky breath and dipped down to bury his face in the crook of your neck. He inhaled deeply, drawing your scent into his lungs and holding it there.
A low, raw groan rumbled deep in his throat and his hand tightened slightly on the other side of your neck. His lips brushed against your skin and he pressed a soft kiss right over where your scent was the strongest.
Another kiss higher up, and then another at the edge of your jaw.
Your breath hitched when his lips pressed against the corner of your mouth. You closed your eyes when they pressed against your lips.
Kyle kissed the same way he held onto you- with great restraint. Feather light pressure, almost chaste in the way his lips moved against yours. His free hand settled on your knee and he squeezed, earning a quiet noise in return that he eagerly swallowed.
You cupped his cheeks, turning your body to directly face him, the movement causing his hand to slide up along your thigh. You tilted your head and deepened the kiss, kissing him back firmly, more heat behind your lips.
Kyle groaned again. His hand slid down from your neck to grab your side and he tugged, pulling you into his lap with no effort. It didn't surprise him, he'd killed ripped Volatiles in half before. Lifting you into his lap with one hand was as difficult as it was for you to lift up a bottle of water.
It did surprise you, though. You'd never felt his strength first hand like this. It made you shockingly aware of just how strong he was. If he could do that without even trying…
Your heart raced as you imagined what else he could do with you as effortlessly as that.
Kyle's breathing grew more excited as he smelt the thick scent of your arousal, hot puffs of air tickling your upper lip as he kissed you with more intensity, his tongue slipping past your lips. He licked into you like a man starved, pulling you in closer until you sat directly on his lap.
Your breath caught in your throat when you felt how hard he was beneath his jeans. Your hands slid down from his neck to plant firmly on his chest, and you pushed yourself back.
Kyle looked up at you through half lidded eyes, breathing through parted lips as he watched you tug at his jacket. He barely pulled himself together long enough to help you take it off of him before he was pulling your shirt over your head. It hit the floor on top of his jacket, and then his own T-shirt followed suit.
Dilated eyes dragged over your bare chest.
“Jesus.” He rasped. The word came out all wrong from the heavy huffing of his breathing.
He didn't touch you with his hands first. They stayed on your hips as he leaned forward and buried his face in the skin between your collarbones. He took in a long, sharp drag of air, his skin feeling feverishly hot against your chest.
His mouth dragged up your throat, his teeth and tongue grazing the skin in the crook of your neck.
When he bit you, it wasn't soft or gentle like he had been so far. It was firm, a deep pressure that held you in place. The tip of his tongue licked over the dark mark his teeth had left right after.
“Mine.” He murmured against the bite, the word slipping out before his brain could catch it. His jaw flexed and he closed his eyes, fighting back the urge to leave more than the one mark.
You shivered, your jaw dropping slightly, your eyes closing. Kyle had just marked you. The same way he marked all around your yard with himself. The thought made your hips shift in his lap.
His hands gripped your waist a little tighter and he lifted his head from your neck, looking up at you through half shut eyes. They were full of hunger as he raked them over your face, pupils blown wide, lids heavy.
“You're driving me fucking crazy.” He choked on the word, his voice dropping into a rasp as his right hand slid down to the button on your jeans.
It was shaking. Not from fear anymore, but from the overwhelming desire to take away all the layers separating your skin from his. He needed to feel all of you, right now, or he was going to lose his fucking mind.
Kyle was efficient with undressing you while continuing to make out with you. It was impressive. You knew he must have had plenty of experience if he could remember how to take a woman's clothes off without even looking after all these years.
He took off his own clothes with less care. He actually ended up tearing his zipper open when he was just trying to pull it down. His pants joined the pile on the floor and then his arms were wrapping around you, not bothering with his boxers. He stood up from the couch, keeping you pressed tightly against him, and walked towards the open doorway of your bedroom.
You wrapped your legs around his waist, and your arms around his neck. You buried your nose in his hair and inhaled, the same way you'd felt him do to you. All you could smell was the faint traces of shampoo and the stronger scent of male sweat.
Kyle could smell every emotion running through you.
He laid you down on your bed and wedged himself between your legs. His waist was wide, nudging your thighs further apart, heat coming off of him in waves as his heavy body hovered inches above yours.
“You're perfect.” He rumbled against your neck as he peppered kisses up to your ear. “I don't deserve this.” He slid his hand down your thigh to hook his fingers in your panties and pull. “Don't deserve you.”
“Yes you do.” You argued, your voice weak as he tugged the fabric down your legs. Your breath caught in your throat when his fingers slid up the inside of your thigh, lingering there before finally making contact with you.
Kyle groaned, the sound loud and raw. His fingers pushed through your slick folds, spreading your wetness around, taking a moment to just feel you.
It had been so long since he'd felt something like you. It took his breath away.
“Wanna do this right.” He whispered, tugging down his boxers just enough to free himself. His cock was heavy and hot as it bumped against your inner thighs, the tip leaving a smear of his own slickness over your skin. “Wanna take my time. Taste you. But- f-fuck- I can't.”
He wrapped his hand around his length and pushed his hips forward, sliding the head of his cock between your folds. The action drew sharp noises of pleasure from both of you.
“I can't.” He repeated, the words butchered by his heavy breathing. “I need you. Now. Tell me I can.”
You nodded breathlessly. “Please.”
A shaky sound left his lips and he glanced down where he was pressing himself against you. He spread your wetness over his length with his fingers, giving your clit a few deep strokes before his impatience won and he notched himself at your entrance.
He braced one hand on the mattress beside your head, the other holding his cock steady as he gave a tiny, gentle push forward. His eyes darted back up to your face, scanning for any signs of pain. When he saw none he gave another tiny push, the tip of him slowly stretching you open, his eyes remaining locked onto you.
It took him a while. Even though he couldn't think, he knew what he needed to do. He knew he needed to take his time to ease you into it.
Every time you gasped or winced he would stop. He'd wait until you relaxed around him to give you more. He would freeze, wait, draw back out slightly, and push in deeper.
You were drenched. The sheer intensity of the emotions coursing through you coupled with being so intimate with a man like him had turned you on to no end. That made it a little easier, but he was still so big.
Every part of Kyle was so strong. Even his restraint, even now, even like this, when his new instincts were roaring at him to hurry.
Kyle was drenched with sweat when he finally bottomed out. His entire body shook with the effort it took to hold himself back from slamming into you.
He pulled his hips back a few inches before slowly pushing back in. You moaned softly, your hands gripping tighter onto his biceps.
Somehow, he found the strength to speak. It came out strained and harsh, but it came out nonetheless. “I need you to be honest with me.” He pleaded. “If I'm too heavy, if I push you too hard, you tell me. Understand?”
You nodded, still dizzy from the feeling of having him inside you.
“Don't let me hurt you.” He rasped. “I don't know my own strength anymore.”
Kyle leaned down, bracing himself on his elbows around you, and kissed you. It was shockingly gentle despite the way his body trembled to hold himself back. “Please. Just… tell me.”
You nodded again, sliding your hands up his biceps to his shoulders. “I promise.”
Kyle let out a shaky breath and nodded, finally allowing himself to move. His eyes squeezed shut and his jaw clenched, the muscles in his thick arms trembling violently as he gave you slow, steady thrusts.
The bed creaked softly beneath you. You wrapped your legs around his waist and he grunted in response, one hand coming to grip your thigh to hold you closer.
“Jesus Christ.” He choked out, sweat beading on his forehead. “God… you feel so fucking good.”
Your heart ached when you realized this is the first time Kyle had felt pleasure and not pain in a very long time.
“So do you.” You whined, tightening your legs around his waist as he pushed even deeper inside you. “Oh-”
He let out a breathy laugh of disbelief, tilting his head back up to look down at you. His eyes were brighter than you'd ever seen them.
Kyle didn't believe something like this could exist anymore. Not when something as cruel and evil as the Baron existed. Yet here he was, so deep inside something so warm and pure. Something that he loved, and something he knew loved him.
“Look at you.” He praised, his voice dropping as a heavy sigh left his lips. “So fucking beautiful for me.”
He shifted his weight and put a little more pressure behind his thrusts, drawing more noises of pleasure from you. He felt on top of the world hearing that. He didn't feel like a monster anymore.
For a while, he wasn't. He was Kyle Crane, the man who would go through hell to protect the people he cared about, worshipping the woman who'd treated him as such. The woman who'd saved him.
He trailed open mouthed kisses along your neck and collarbones. His hands mapped your torso, gently squeezing your breasts, fingers pinching and brushing over your nipples while he licked and sucked on the mark he'd left on you.
The muscles in his back rippled under your hands as he rolled his hips in steady waves, dragging the thick length of him inside of you with each easy movement.
Your sounds of pleasure spurred him on.
“Oh, God- Kyle-” you whimpered, shifting your hips up higher, subtly begging for more. “Please-”
“Yeah?” He breathed, lifting his face from your neck, half-lidded eyes dragging over your face. “What is it, baby?”
“More.” You pleaded. “Please.”
An involuntary groan left his lips and he clenched his jaw. “Fuck. You have no idea what you're asking for.”
You shook your head, using your legs around his waist to pull him deeper. “I do. Please- Kyle, please-”
He let out another groan, squeezing his eyes shut. He adjusted his grip on your waist, pulled his hips back, and slammed into you.
A sharp sound caught in your throat that sounded almost pained. Kyle froze, his eyes snapping open, until he caught the scent of strong arousal coming off you. His breath stuttered in his lungs and he drew back before snapping his hips forward again.
Your nails dug into his back. You were melting beneath him, hips twitching towards him, desperate for more. The tip of him had jabbed right against that spot deep inside you that had your legs shaking around his waist.
Kyle let out a long, shaky breath of relief and repeated the action, drawing out another sharp moan from you.
“That's it, sweetheart…” He whispered, setting a steady pace of quick thrusts. “...take every fucking inch of me.”
Those words coming from the man who never so much as touched you unprompted before had your head spinning. You clenched down around him, a jolt of pleasure shooting through you, and Kyle groaned, giving a particularly rough thrust.
His walls were coming down. No- you were tearing them down with a fucking sledgehammer.
“Fuck, Kyle…” You gasped, struggling to keep your eyes open as he thrusted into you with that quick pace. He was going so deep it was making you stupid.
As if he read your mind, he spoke. “Feel how deep I am?” His voice was a rumble in his chest as he gave an even deeper thrust. “Yeah? Tell me how good it feels.”
You groaned. “So good. So good- can't think. Please don't stop-”
“Stop?” He leaned down, bracing himself on his elbows again, and placed a heavy kiss to your open mouth. “I couldn't stop now if I fucking tried.” He panted between messy kisses. “You don't ever have to ask me that.”
You kissed him back the best you could in your state, which wasn't very well. You gasped and moaned into his mouth as he kept giving you fast, long strokes that made you see stars.
His walls were coming down faster than he realized.
When he turned you over onto your side, he didn't just move you. His hands slid around you and he lifted you, effortlessly manhandling you into the spooning position before you could process it. His body quickly laid down behind you, his rough hand grabbing your thigh to lift it and spread you back open for him.
You moaned into your pillow when he slid back inside. He groaned into the nape of your neck.
If it was possible, he somehow felt deeper like this. He hitched your leg over his thigh and fucked into you with incessant snaps of his hips, one arm sliding under your neck to band over your collarbones, his other hand holding your thigh with a firm grip.
He held you flush against his front as he drove into you, his arms and hands almost acting like a seatbelt to keep you in place against his intense thrusts.
At one point, when the tip of him dragged right against that same spot, you cried out and arched your hips back. The angle had you taking him even deeper and he tightened his grip around you, his hand sliding down from your thigh to grab your waist.
“Yeah, stay just like that.” He panted, his voice choppy from the force of his thrusts. “Don't move. Take my whole fucking dick.”
Your jaw dropped and you keened, squeezing the arm he had banded over your chest. You kept your hips angled back just like he'd wanted, earning a low growl at your ear in approval.
“F-fuck, Kyle,” your voice trembled as he continued giving you deep, quick thrusts. “I'm, h-oh God-”
“Yeah? You gonna come for me?” He panted against your ear, his breath hot as it fanned across your skin. He gripped your hip tighter and gave you a little more, snapping forward in a relentless rhythm. “Do it, come on, baby. Come on.”
You squeezed your eyes shut as that blinding wave of pleasure broke inside you, shooting through your torso, jolts of it making you gasp and clench around him. Your hips moved on their own accord, grinding back against him.
"You're mine now. You hear me? Every fucking inch of you.” He growled in your ear, thrusting harder. His pace was turning aggressive without him even realizing it. He didn't even realize he could hear his blood pumping in his ears, his pulse skyrocketing, his hands tightening their hold on you to the point of bruising.
You were too lost in it to notice it, your own pleasure deafening you to it. All you cared about in that moment was how good you felt, how good he felt inside you.
His breathing had grown heavier, faster, each inhale and exhale rising in octave right at your ear until the air going through alone was louder than the sound of his growling.
The growls on each exhale rumbled against your back. Every rushed exhale came with a deeper, louder rumble, until the arm around your collarbones slid up to lock around your neck.
You whimpered, still trembling as the last pulse of your orgasm rippled through you, and opened your eyes. His arm wasn't holding you against his chest anymore to keep you steady. It was locked around your neck like he was trying to subdue you.
His thrusts had slowed, you only noticed that now, the same way you only now noticed the way he was growling and almost hyperventilating behind you.
“Kyle?” You exhaled, your fingers digging into the thick forearm over your throat. You caught a glimpse of the black veins spiderwebbing across the skin in real time and your heart lurched.
You didn't dare move. You didn't even breathe. You just relaxed your muscles and tried to stay quiet.
Kyle's worst fears ran through your brain as you felt him turn behind you. Was he about to rip you to pieces the way he'd done countless others? He'd killed innocent people yesterday when he turned. Yesterday.
You were mostly scared for Kyle. What if he did hurt you? What would that do to him, when he came to his senses? The image you conjured up in your mind of him coming to and seeing you in pieces on your bed made you nauseated.
It felt like hours before something finally happened, but in reality, it had only been about five seconds.
Kyle buried his face in the crook of your neck and inhaled, dragging your scent deep in his lungs with short, greedy huffs. He growled on each exhale. He smelt the sharp tang of fear, something he was accustomed to smelling in the state.
This time, though, the fear didn't fuel his bloodlust. It dampened it, because through it all he could still smell you. Your scent was familiar. He associated it with something other than anger and hatred.
The arm around your throat tightened, but not to choke you. It didn't cut off your breathing or the flow of blood to your brain. He tightened it enough to keep you very, very still, as the hand on your hip shot back down to your thigh with a quick jerk. He gripped it and hitched it back up over his own thigh, opening you up after you'd squeezed your legs together during your climax.
Kyle gave a sudden, deep thrust that knocked the breath out of you.
The fear started to subside. It didn't fade completely, but the thrill that replaced it was twice as intense.
The hand on your thigh adjusted its grip and he hitched your leg up, lifting it off of him to hold it in the air, opening you up completely before he delivered one long, harsh stroke that sent him balls deep.
You choked on a ragged groan, your eyes rolling back.
Kyle growled in response, giving you another thrust, driving himself deep again before he decided that wasn't enough.
In one smooth motion he used his weight to roll you over on your stomach. You gasped, caught off guard. His body followed you down, burning hot and overwhelmingly heavy on top of yours. He crushed you into the mattress without even meaning to.
He slid his arms under you, one wrapping around your waist to angle your hips up, the other around your ribs to hold you flush against his chest.
The sound he let out when he bottomed out was completely animal. He buried his face in your neck again, taking in short, deep huffs of your scent as he resumed his aggressive thrusting. He let out another growl and nuzzled his nose against your jaw, something that almost felt like signaled satisfaction.
The position was on the line between intimate and claustrophobic. Your entire torso was covered by his large form, his skin hot and slick against yours. Hot flashes washed through you as he rutted into you quick and harsh.
You whimpered beneath him, your heart rate quickening as sweat formed on your face again. His arms tightened around your body and he delivered a sharp snap of his hips, burying himself in as deep as he could go, forcing a choked grunt from your chest.
Somehow, even in this state that usually left him violent and brutish, he was able to comprehend the position wasn't optimal anymore. He couldn't get enough friction. He couldn't pull himself out far enough. He could only give you shallow, quick thrusts, and that wasn't cutting it. It wasn't enough.
So he moved you into something better.
The room spun as he manhandled you onto your back. The cool room of the air hit your chest and you shivered in relief, blinking up at the man settling back in between your thighs.
For a second, he faltered when he saw your face again. He blinked back down at you, his right eye that bright, blood red you'd only seen twice before. All the veins in his arms were visible, black from the change, creeping up his pecs and lightening the closer they got to his neck. His chest heaved with rapid, shallow breaths, his gaze darting over your form like he was assessing you for the first time.
Your hands came to rest on his forearms and he snapped back into it. The moment you touched him, his body reacted with terrifying speed. He jerked your thighs apart and rutted forward, fucking himself back into you so quickly it made you cry out in surprise.
He hooked his thick arms under your knees and slid them over his shoulders. You sucked in a sharp, deep breath as he forced his body down, bending you into a tight press. You groaned, feeling him sink in even deeper, and Kyle let out a similar sound.
In this position he was able to pull out until only the tip of him remained inside you before he slammed back in, buried to the hilt.
You could barely breathe with the pace he set.
He was baring his teeth again, but not to threaten or intimidate. It was from the sheer power he was using to fuck you like a beast without killing you. His hands twitched in their tight grip on your sides, the tips of his fingers digging in hard enough to bruise.
Even in this state he was able to keep you safe. The state that was forced upon him solely to hurt and kill. Something about that sent you over the edge.
Kyle sensed it and growled again, the sound sharp and loud in the room. He pressed his body down harder, forcing you to open up wider, and moved his hands down to your ass to lift it off the bed to take him deeper.
It was too much. Your body felt like it was going to break from the intensity of it. He was driving in so fast and so deep and with so much force that you couldn't even breathe right. Each thrust knocked the air from your lungs.
Your jaw dropped and you came around him, your nails digging into his forearms, your back arching as the second wave of white hot pleasure scorched through you.
Kyle let out a sound that was close to a snarl, raw and thick in his throat, and his thrusts turned desperate. He lifted your hips higher, fucking his cock deeper, faster, desperately chasing down his own release as quickly as possible.
It didn't take him long at all. His body went rigid and he slammed into you four more times before he buried himself balls deep and locked into place over you. His mouth found the crook of your neck again and he bit down hard, clamping his teeth into your skin to hold you still.
Kyle pinned you to the mattress, his hips jerking forward even though he wouldn't pull them back. He gave these tight rolls as he emptied himself inside you, his body moving to push his cum up deeper with every grind.
“Oh- oh God-” your voice was nothing but a trembling whisper as you shivered beneath him.
He groaned around your skin in response, grinding his hips forward again, his cock throbbing violently. His heart rate started to slow from its inhumane pace, and his grip on your hips loosened to let you lay flat on the mattress.
Still, he didn't pull away. He stayed pressed tightly on top of you, your legs still hooked over his shoulders. He relaxed his jaw and panted against the dark red mark his teeth left against your neck, right over the much lighter mark from earlier.
The first mark had almost faded. This second one will stay for a long time. He sighed in satisfaction at the sight of it and rolled his hips again.
You trembled beneath him, clenching down at the feeling of him still so deep. Your neck burned and throbbed from the bite, and your hips ached from his brutal thrusts.
You'd never felt anything so deeply satisfying. This intense feeling of belonging hit you like a train and you wrapped your arms around his neck, nuzzling your face against the side of his head.
A rumble vibrated against your chest in response. He slid your legs off of his shoulders just so he could get closer to you, moving down until his chest laid flush against yours. He was still somehow able to brace his weight in a way that didn't fully crush you.
While he breathing slowed and you relaxed beneath him, he dragged his nose along your throat and breathed you in again. He pressed gentle kisses along your skin.
You closed your eyes and took a steadying breath.
Kyle didn't speak for a while after coming back to you. He had started breathing heavily again, almost terrified, pulling his head up from your neck to look down at you with panic in his eyes. The red in the right one was gone, replaced with that familiar silvery blue.
When he saw you were still breathing and unharmed aside from the bite, he let out a sharp breath of relief. That relief shifted into something devastating.
“Jesus Christ, baby.” He choked out, his voice wrecked with fading heat and panic. His eyes tracked over the deep purple mark on your neck and the first signs of bruises on your hips and thighs. “Oh, God. Look at you.”
You refused to let him go down that route. You refused to let him pull away.
“You were completely out of control, Kyle.” The words came out uneven and hoarse from the intensity of it all. You grabbed onto his biceps and squeezed. “And the worst that came of it was a little bruise.”
His eyes flicked back down to the mark on your neck, the skin around it an angry red. There was no blood. Not even a blood blister. His eyes met yours again, a fraction softer.
“Even out of your mind you took care of me.” You continued, stroking his arms with your thumbs. “You need to start realizing you're not what you think you are.”
He didn't speak for a moment. He just stared down at you, his eyes scanning over your face like he was waiting for the illusion to break. For the last thirteen years- no, longer now- one absolute truth had been pounded into his head. You're not human anymore. You're dangerous. You hurt everyone you care about. The Baron solidified those thoughts until it was the only thing Kyle knew for a fact anymore.
But he had turned. He'd turned into the thing that rips Volatiles apart, the monster that killed those innocent people, right here, in your bed, between your legs, and he hadn't even broken your skin when he bit you.
“How do you do that?” He murmured, his voice thick. “How the fuck do you do that?”
The two of you stayed like that for a while longer, wrapped up in each other's arms, deeply satisfied just holding each other. There was a heavy weight in the air, though not in the heartbreaking sense. It was the weight that came with realizing there was more hope to something someone once thought to be the end of the world.
He got busier after that first week. Things were escalating with the Baron, and more and more of Castor Woods’ people came to him for help. Kyle being Kyle, was never one to turn someone down in need.
On the nights that he wasn't desperately needed, he came back to you the same way he did that first week, minus the blood and shaking hands.
He would come through your door right before sunset and sit on your couch while you tended to wounds you knew would heal in a day. He talked more as the days went by, telling you about the people he met in that cave that were experimented on like him, about the missions he went on and the information he learned. He told you about The Beast and how he and Lydia planned to capture it and use it against the Baron.
He got even busier one week, so busy to the point where the only confirmation that he was still alive was his voice over the radio he gave you. He told you The Beast’s name was Aiden and that you might not hear from him for a while. He promised he'd be okay.
His assumption was wrong.
Instead of not hearing from him for a while, it was the opposite. He came home the next night, exhausted, drained, with a bruise on his side the size of a pillow. He didn't need to tell you the Baron was dead, you could see it in the way he didn't stand so rigid in your doorframe.
The next week was a blur of new people when he brought you to the Exile's cave with him to celebrate the Baron's death. You met Lydia and Aiden, and Starchild and Olivia.
Kyle wasn't so busy after that week. For the first time since after killing Rais, he didn't have anywhere he absolutely needed to be. You could see it made him restless some days. He'd still go out; hunt down the remaining soldiers, track down the Chimeras that had escaped after the Baron's death. He would help people that needed help.
Every evening he'd come home with some funny story or bearing gifts; weapons, food, shiny trinkets he knew you'd enjoy. Sometimes he'd bring Aiden with him for dinner and the younger man would knock out on your couch immediately after finishing his food.
After dinner he'd slip into bed with you like it was that first night all over again and made sure that mark never faded.
Summary: Aiden Caldwell didn't know how to date, but he was sure as hell going to try to give you a good one. He succeeds, of course, and ends up getting much more than he expected in return.
Warnings/Mentions: Unprotected sex, lowkey kinda fluffy as fuck, Aiden accidentally says ily when he comes, drinking
Aiden didn't know how to ‘date’. That wasn't something he'd ever done. In all his life, he'd never even been on a date. Not really. The most he got was maybe some craftmaster’s daughter would flirt with him when he passed through a town. He’d flirt back, and if he was lucky he'd get a little make out session behind the safe house after dark, but that was it.
Safe to say, he wasn't really familiar with how to woo a woman. Which sucked, because Aiden really liked you. Like, a lot. You were beautiful, clever, sweet, and one of the only people he'd met that could actually make him laugh until his stomach hurt. You were the only person he found himself willingly wanting to spend his free time with.
He wanted to… what was it Hakon called it? Woo you?
He wanted to take you on a date like the ones you'd drunkenly admitted you dreamed about someone taking you on. That night you stole a bottle of decent vodka from some Renegades and came over to his place to share it with him.
“I mean- I want a date. A real date.” You'd slurred, your voice somewhat sad, as you sat on the opposite side of the couch. “Do people even do that anymore?”
Aiden wasn't sure. He'd shrugged, not knowing what to say. What he did know was he wanted to give that to you. He wanted to give you the date you deeply wanted.
He just had no fucking idea how to.
Naturally, against Lawan's strong recommendation not to, he went to Hakon for advice. Sure, he may have lost all those wives and girlfriends, but he must have some knowledge on how to make a girl swoon if it got him them in the first place.
“Don't bring her flowers, kiddo. Bring her medkits and provisions, show her you can provide for her. Take her to see the sunset and tell her she's more beautiful than it, right after you say it's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.” Hakon had said.
That sounded relatively easy enough. He could do that. Probably. He had plenty of medical supplies and food. Plus, the idea of providing for you made him feel good just thinking about it.
“And if you really want to seal the deal, bring her some of that special herbal brew they sell at the Fish Eye. The ones in the little blue bottles.”
Also easy.
“Just don't drink alcohol with it unless you don't want her to remember a thing the next morning.” The older man added. “Might be a good plan B though if you fuck up your chance.”
Yeah, no.
He had it all planned out. Meet you at the bar around seven, buy the drinks, then bring you to the rooftop of that high rise apartment building near the VNC tower. The one with the little koi pond and fancy string lights. He even learned some constellations from Lawan to impress you.
You got to the bar a little later than you said you'd be there, but he didn't mind. The extra minutes gave him time to go through the list in his head a billion times to make sure he wasn't forgetting anything.
“Aiden!” Your voice ripped him out of his thoughts, bringing his attention to you as you jogged up to him in the Fish Eye.
He didn't even realize he was smiling.
“Sorry.” You gave him a winded smile as you reached him at the bar like you'd ran the whole way there. “There was a Goon on my route and I had to take a detour.”
Aiden blinked, the carefully rehearsed greeting momentarily vanishing from his head at the sight of you smiling at him like that.
“A Goon? You okay?” He furrowed his brows, checking you over with his eyes. You didn't look hurt. Just a little out of breath.
“Yeah, I'm fine.” You nodded, finally catching your breath. You ran your fingers through your hair, brushing out a wind-swept tangle. “Just had to do a lot of extra climbing.”
He nodded, pursing his lips, and tried to remember Hakon's advice.
Show her you can provide for her.
He unclipped the bag that hung from the side of his and held it out to you. “Here. Got these for you.”
You raised your brows and took it from him, peering in. Your eyes widened, and then you looked up at him, a bemused smile on your lips. “What's this for?”
“For you.” He repeated, trying to lower his voice to what he thought sounded like a dependable register. “Just in case the next detour has two Goons. I-” he cleared his throat, shifting his feet, “-just wanna make sure you're taken care of.”
Your smile grew into something softer. You closed the bag containing those ten military medkits and beamed up at him. “Well… thank you, Aiden.” Your voice came out softer than he'd ever heard it.
Then it turned playful. “Is that why you wanted to meet up tonight? Are we about to do something that requires ten military medkits?”
He laughed, shaking his head, and pushed himself away from the bar. “No. You won't be using those tonight. I wanna show you something.”
The way you instantly perked up made his heart race. That was a good sign, right? You looked interested.
You were definitely interested. The mere sentence ‘I wanna show you something’ had your own heart racing.
You liked Aiden a lot. He was strong, capable, funny as hell, and one of the only people who you trusted with your entire life. The idea of going alone with him somewhere outside of a supply run or a mission sent butterflies fluttering in your chest like fireworks.
“Okay.” You nodded, your smile still growing. “Show me.”
He returned your smile with one of his own, breathless despite having not done anything. “Okay.”
Before tonight, he'd made a few changes to that rooftop. He cleared some of the trash from other survivors, put up new UV lights, he even brought up a few fresh blankets and pillows for the area around the fire pit- the same fire pit he made sure had enough wood to burn all night.
Made a few changes to himself, too. Cleaned up his facial hair a little, put on clothes that weren't just practical but were actually nice to look at, and bathed an hour prior.
Not that bathing was something he didn't normally do, it's just-
“I don't know how you have this sort of stamina.” You groaned as he helped you climb up the last ledge, hauling you over by your biceps like you weighed nothing. “You're not even breathing hard and I feel like I'm about to pass out.”
Aiden grinned, helping you to your feet. He kept one hand on your shoulder to steady you. Right. Steady you. “Don't beat yourself up. If you had as many inhibitors as I have you'd be the same way.”
Not to mention what Waltz's experiments had done to him.
You gave him an appreciative smile and took a deep breath. “Okay. So… what did you wanna show me? The suspense is killing me!”
He racked his brain. What else was it that Hakon had said? Medkits, provisions- right. Provisions.
“C’mon. Sit down for a sec before you actually pass out.” He jerked his chin towards the center of the rooftop where the fire pit and chairs sat.
It used to be a common area for the residents of the high-rise. Patio furniture, tables, a little garden. Now it felt like an arena where he was about to battle himself. What if he screwed it up? What if you weren't into him the same way he was into you? Or worse; what if this ruined everything?
You were already nodding and walking off to sit down on one of the chairs before he could think himself into a deeper hole.
He busied himself, lighting the fire while you went through the rest of the bag he'd given you. Ten military medkits, a bottle of clean water, and a handful of protein bars.
“They taste like dirt, but they've got like… almost fifty grams of protein in them.” He commented after you'd unwrapped one.
You took a bite. Chewed. Swallowed. When he glanced at you over your shoulder you were looking at him with a horrified expression.
He barked out a laugh, not expecting that kind of reaction. “Okay, now. Come on, they're not that bad.”
You grinned, dropping the dramatics. “They're really not, thank you, Aiden.”
Fuck, he loved the way you said his name. His smile softened and he nodded, looking back at the fire he had successfully started. “Mhm.”
You took another bite and watched him poke at the fire with a stick. You still had no idea why he'd brought you up here. “So, you gonna tell me why we're up here now?”
He stood from the floor and sat down on the chair next to yours, sliding his bag off his shoulders and into his lap. “Jeeze. And people tell me I have no patience.”
“You don't.”
He smirked as he dug through the contents. “Maybe I just wanna hang out with you, ever think of that?”
When you didn't immediately respond his heart dropped. He glanced up, seeing you looking at him with an expression that suddenly made him feel exposed. You weren't smiling with your lips, but it still somehow looked like you were smiling at him. Your eyes were softer, almost warm.
“Really?”
He swallowed. “Yeah.” He watched you for a moment before pulling out the small blue bottles from his bag. He rubbed his thumb over the smooth surface before leaning forward, holding one out to you.
Your eyes flicked down to his hand between your chairs and you reached for it. “What's this?”
“Honestly? No idea.” He chuckled. “Never had it. But Hakon said it's like this stuff from the Old World that people used to take at clubs.”
“At clubs?” You repeated, popping the small cork out and raising the bottle to your nose. You sniffed, and looked pleasantly surprised. “Is it alcohol?”
“No. I don't think so. Never tried it.” He admitted. Maybe he should have tried it before giving it to you.
Fuck. He had no idea what this crap was and he was giving it to you-
You were bringing it to your lips before he could second guess himself. He watched you drink it all in one go, not even flinching. He thumbed his own cork out and followed suit, downing the sweet contents. It tasted like honey and apples covering something almost chemically.
You licked your lips. Aiden licked his, still looking at you, and cleared his throat.
“So.” He said. Here it was. He was going to say it.
You looked over at him and the words died in his throat. You were already giving him that warm smile that made his heart ache in longing. The smile you gave him almost every time you saw him.
“So-” he repeated, “how, uh- how was your day?”
You told him about your day, and he told you about his. That took about ten minutes. Then you started talking about a rumor you overheard at a survivor camp concerning Meyer and a Night-runner. That took about ten more minutes.
Twenty minutes had passed since drinking whatever the hell it was that guy brewed and sold at the canteen, and you were both clearly feeling the effects setting in.
You'd forwent the chairs and chose to sit on the pile of blankets Aiden had brought in front of the fire. Your lips were tingling, your face felt warm- not only from the gentle flames- and your skin buzzed all over. Your chest felt light. You felt like you had enough energy to talk all night, but simultaneously you'd never felt more relaxed.
Aiden felt the same. He also couldn't stop staring at you. If it was possible, you somehow looked even more beautiful tonight. The way the warm hues from the fire lit up your features just did something to him. He was sitting close to you now, your crossed knees touching, and he could smell every little scent coming off of you. Homemade soap you made yourself. Jasmine. Honeysuckle. The fading traces of apples and honey on your breath.
You couldn't stop looking at him either. He looked so beautiful. So strong. All you could think about while you looked at him beside you, talking about the time he walked in on Hakon and some redhead having sex, was how incredible he really was.
He was the strongest man you'd ever met. Physically and mentally. Even after the shit with his sister, he still found reasons to keep going, despite how nihilistic he could get sometimes. He still found ways to make you laugh even when he was having a bad day.
And physically? You'd seen him turn and beat a Volatile to death with his bare hands one time when the two of you were cornered in an old dark zone. You'd seen him scale up walls like a spider, and run along the side of them like a monkey. You'd seen him take out ten Renegades like they were pinatas and then come to make sure you were okay.
Aiden was the strongest, fastest, most capable man in Villedor, and he was choosing to spend his time with you, like he had done countless times before.
Maybe it was whatever the hell was in that drink, but you felt like you were about to cry. Your chest welled with emotion and it got hard to swallow.
He noticed you staring and trailed off. The amused look on his face faded into something softer. “Hey.” He murmured, leaning back on his palms. “How're you feelin’?”
“Good.” You hummed, shifting to lay down on your side on the blankets, using an elbow to prop your head up with a hand against your cheek. “Really good. I can see why he sells those drinks for so much.”
Aiden smiled, his eyes following you as you moved. “Yeah. I'm glad you like it.”
You smiled back up at him.
His smile widened a fraction.
Your gaze drifted up from his face to look up at the sky above your head. You shifted again, lowering yourself down onto your back, your head resting on one of those pillows he'd preemptively brought up here.
The night sky was stunning. Inky black and deep blue with millions of stars scattered across it. You could make out a few constellations; the big and little dipper, Orion, and something else you forgot the name of.
“Wow. It's so clear tonight.” You murmured.
Aiden watched you for a few more seconds before following your gaze. He shifted his weight, lying down on the blankets beside you. He tucked his arm behind his head and grunted in acknowledgement and agreement. It was very clear. He could see the constellation Lawan had given him.
“Yeah.” He sighed. “Lawan tried to teach me some of those constellations.”
You giggled, turning your head to look at him beside you. Your giggle faded when you saw how close his face was to yours, his nose pointed towards the stars as he took them in.
“Lawan? Really?” You forced yourself to look back up at the stars. “She doesn't seem the type.”
“Don't tell her I told you. She'd kill me if anyone knew how much of a softie she is under all that… Lawan.” He chuckled, and raised his hand. He dragged his finger across the stars, pointing at the only one he really remembered. “See that cluster right there?”
You followed the trial of his finger and nodded. “Mhm.”
“That's part of Pegasus. Said it reminded her of me because… I don't know. Something about me being a loner.” He found himself smirking at the memory. At the time it had felt so right. Now he couldn't imagine wanting to be alone like that ever again. Not when he was lying beside you up on this rooftop looking at stars, your company and the drink running through his veins making him feel so warm and happy.
“I see.” You followed his finger as it traced the outline again. “A loner, huh?”
He glanced over at you beside him to see you already looking at him. His hand slowly lowered to rest over his chest. “Yeah.”
“You don't seem like that much of a loner to me.” You teased, your voice coming out quieter than you intended. “I think you should ask her for a new one.”
He didn't smile at your teasing. He just looked back at you. “Yeah. Don't really feel that way anymore either.”
The way your lips parted slightly at his words and your breath hitched had his heart racing again. Did he say something wrong? Or right?
Your eyes flicked down to his lips. His breath caught. You swallowed and looked back up at the stars. “Did she teach you anything else?”
He didn't look up at the stars.
“No.” He admitted. “I mean…she tried. But to be honest… I can't really make out the shapes. When I look up there now, they all just kind of blur together.”
You furrowed your brows, but didn't turn to look at him again. “You can't make out the shapes?”
“Not literally.” He said softly, his voice dropping to a lower octave in what was almost a whisper. He was still nervous, but it was starting to be overridden by something with more gravity. “It's just… I look up at them and it feels like they only form one pattern now. Like every single star up there only spells out one thing.”
Now you were looking at him again. Your heart skipped a beat and his felt like it was about to burst from his chest. “What one thing?”
His eyes roamed over your face, flicking between your eyes and your lips. “Your name.” He whispered, eyes meeting yours again. “Every time I look at them, that's all I see.”
He watched your expression morph into something that made it hard for him to swallow as the weight of his words sank in. Your brows pinched together in the middle ever so slightly, your lips parted. You almost looked like his words had hurt you.
You let out a huff of air through your nose, not exactly a laugh. Something similar but without the amusement.
“One time you told me you'd always wanted to go on a date like in that book you read.” He swallowed hard and continued. “I didn't bring you flowers or chocolates or take you to the beach to see the sunset, but- is this… is this right?*
You let out a soft breath through your mouth. “Yes. Yes, this is perfect, Aiden. It's perfect.”
It hit him like a train. He laughed breathlessly, his lips turning into a wide grin of relief.
“Perfect.” He repeated, the word a low rumble in his throat. It felt like the weight of the universe had been lifted off of his shoulders, and in that moment, nothing mattered more than what you'd just said to him.
You nodded, smiling at him with that same smile that made his heart melt.
Aiden shifted again, rolling over from his back until he was hovering over you, his broad form practically covering the entire night sky from your view. All you could see was Aiden Caldwell just a few inches above you, looking down at you like you were the same stars you'd just been admiring together.
He reached out, his hand coming in contact with your cheek, those rough fingers touching your face with a gentleness he'd never used before. His thumb brushed over your cheekbone.
“You have no idea how long I've wanted this.” He murmured, his eyes drifting down to your lips again, but without the nervousness this time.
You closed your eyes as his lips met yours. You grabbed the front of his jacket and held onto him, immediately melting into the kiss, a soft, unintentional noise vibrating against his lips.
You tasted like honey and apples and that fruity protein bar. He tasted like honey and apples and Aiden. He tilted his head slightly, angling his mouth to better fit against yours, and lowered himself down onto his elbows over you. One of your hands came up to cup his cheek as his came down to cup the back of your neck.
You both kissed like you were starving because you were. You let his tongue slip past your parted lips and gasped into his mouth when the tip of it brushed against yours. He groaned quietly, moving until he was fully over you, one heavy knee pressed between your thighs.
He parted just long enough to look down at your expression. Your cheeks were flushed, pupils blown, lips dark and swollen from the kiss. He let out a breath of disbelief, pushing some of your hair back from your neck with trembling fingers.
Your lips curved into a small, winded smile.
“Fuck…” he exhaled, leaning down to press his lips against yours again before they moved down your cheek to your jaw in quick succession. “You're so beautiful.” His voice was hoarse against your neck as he pressed another kiss there.
You moaned quietly, tilting your head as his lips brushed over your pulse point, and slid your hands up the front of his chest. Your fingers caught on the zipper of his jacket and lingered there, waiting for him to either stop you or push you further.
He chose the latter, pulling his hand away from you to place over yours. He gripped your fingers and pulled down, guiding you to unzip his jacket as he pressed another kiss to your jaw.
He let it hang open while he reached for the buttons on your shirt. He undid them slowly, not daring to stop his mission of kissing every inch of you he could get his lips on. He only pulled back when the last button was undone.
You fought to get each other's clothes off. His jacket flew somewhere behind him, then your shirt, then his shirt, and- fuck- finally he's unbuttoning your jeans and tugging them down your legs.
You lifted your legs to help, a laugh bubbling from your chest when you saw the way his upper lip twitched in frustration when your jeans caught on your boots.
You kicked them off. He leaned back on his knees. Your eyes dropped to watch his hands falling to his belt buckle. His eyes were locked on you beneath him, hues of orange fire and purple UV illuminating your mostly nude form.
You were wearing a matching set of bra and panties. He choked on his own breath. He didn't know anything about women's clothing, but something like that must be impossible to find today. You put on your most rare items for him to see. His fingers fumbled on his belt and he cursed under his breath.
You leaned up to help him and he let out a breath of relief. “Thanks.”
“Uh-huh.” Your voice came out airy and needy in a way that made him more frantic. He made your voice sound like that. Him. That alone made him even harder.
Once you finally got it undone he sat back, kicking off his own shoes and pants. His underwear was nowhere near the level of yours, just a simple pair of grey boxer briefs with a hole at the hip, but the way they hugged him made your thighs clench together. He was so hard you could see every inch of him outlined behind the fabric.
He was back between your thighs before you could admire it properly, his lips on yours again, kissing you with renewed hunger.
You shivered when his hands came in contact with your bare waist. You spread your thighs wider for him, your foot moving to subtly nudge the back of his thigh.
Aiden got the hint. He shifted closer, his tongue in your mouth, his hips nestling between your thighs until the outline you'd been admiring pressed tight against your core.
He groaned against your lips, immediately grinding forward. The friction was dizzying. You gasped into the kiss, angling your hips up higher, rolling yourself up along his length.
He could feel how warm and wet you were through those two layers of fabric. It was enough to make his hips jerk forward, which made you gasp again.
He broke the kiss with a ragged breath. His hips continued their slow, heavy grinds, drawing more soft sounds of pleasure from your parted lips.
“This okay, Beautiful?” He rasped, his voice low and rough as he gave another slow roll of his hips.
You nodded quickly, pulling him back down to kiss you again. He kissed you back hard, letting your tongue past his lips this time, and groaned into your mouth when your thighs squeezed his waist.
He pulled back again, panting against your lips, and hooked a finger into the front of your bra. You got the hint and reached behind you, unclasping the strap as quickly as possible.
His eyes darted down between your bodies where he was pressed so intimately against you. The sight took his breath away, and when he glanced back up to see you bare, he felt dizzy.
Your eyes fluttered shut when his lips kissed a trail down your sternum to your chest. He was so painfully gentle, lips barely brushing your nipple before they wrapped around it. You threaded your fingers through his hair as he palmed at your other breast, thumb brushing over your nipple while his tongue swirled around the other.
“Aiden-” you whined, panting heavily as he gave another slow grind between your thighs, pressing the hard length of him firmly against you. “Please-”
He let out a sound that made you clench around nothing before he pulled his mouth off you, looking up with blown pupils.
“Yeah?” The word came out like hot gravel. “You want it? Right now?”
You nodded again even quicker. “Please.”
He cursed under his breath and leaned back again long enough to hook his thumbs in the waistband of his underwear and push down.
The sight of his cock springing free like that, thick and slick at the tip as it slapped against his stomach, had another breathless sound leaving your mouth.
You'd never seen anything you'd wanted so badly before. Again, you didn't get the chance to admire it the way you wanted, because he was back hovering over you again.
He reached between you, grabbing onto your panties and pulling. You lifted your hips again and he slid them down your legs, letting them land in the pile of clothes beside you. He wrapped his hand around himself and gave a few strokes while he ran the tip of his finger through your folds with his free hand.
He choked on a groan. “Holy shit. You're so wet.”
You would have laughed if not for the feeling of his fingertip rolling over your clit. Of course you were wet. It was him.
You bit your lip when he pressed his hips forward and guided his cock with his hand, sliding his tip between your folds, his eyes rapidly flickering between your face and the sight between your legs.
“God. Look at you.” He breathed, still dragging the tip of him up and down your slit, coating him with your slickness.
Your next whimper must've been just needy enough, because he finally notched himself at your entrance and gave a short, testing push.
It was a lot. For both of you. He was so thick, the tip of him stretching you open with a sharp burn that had a whine catching in your throat.
He was too caught up in the feeling of you enveloping him to fully process your reaction. He groaned, his eyes fluttering shut, his hips twitching forward on instinct. “Oh- fuck-”
You shifted under him, angling your hips higher to try and make it easier, clenching your thighs tightly around him to keep yourself in place.
He let go of his cock and grabbed onto your thighs instead, pulling you closer, successfully pushing another inch inside you. Once the tip popped through the rest was a little easier, but the stretch still took your breath away nonetheless.
A deep groan tore itself from his throat. “S-shit-”
“Aiden-”
His eyes slowly opened and he struggled to focus on your face beneath him. He rocked forward, sinking himself the rest of the way.
The pleasure and relief of actually having him inside you was suddenly overwhelming. He filled you in a way you'd never been filled before. You could feel him literally throbbing, his tip grinding against that spot deep inside you that had your toes curling. You moaned, your back arching, your hands on his shoulders pulling to get him closer to you.
“Oh fuck, Aiden…” You whimpered, burying your face in the crook of his neck after he lowered himself down closer to you. “Aiden-”
He was no better off, the feeling of your warm walls squeezing the life out of him had him seeing stars. It felt hard to breathe, his chest tightening, his skin tingling all over. He physically couldn't keep his eyes open anymore and he settled on mirroring your action, letting his forehead nestle in the crook of your neck.
“I know… I know, Beautiful.” He whined, hands pulling you tighter against him by one hand on your thigh and the other under your ass. He sank in even deeper, drawing more moans from both of you.
“Oh my God Aiden-”
“Me too. F-fuck- me too…”
He set a slow and gentle pace at first, holding you tightly in place on his cock as he dragged it in and out of you. He kissed and licked at your neck, whispering nonsensical words against the wet skin there as he fought to keep himself under control.
You were more than happy to have him fuck you like that all night long. Nice and slow and deep in a way where you could appreciate every inch of him.
Aiden, though, was starving. He'd never had anything even remotely close to this and he couldn't help himself.
He kissed back up to your mouth, pressing his lips against yours in a fashion that was much less polished than before. It was messy and so needy it made you whine in his mouth.
“Baby- baby, please.” He begged between kisses, rocking his hips a little deeper. “Can I go faster?”
You moaned against his lips when he gave an experimentally quick thrust. It took your breath away to a point where you struggled to respond. “A-Aiden-”
He whined, kissing your lips more frantically. “Please let me. Just say yes and I'll fuck you so good.” Another set of rushed kisses. “Fuckin’ give you anything.”
He knew he wouldn't be able to last long like this. Not with you this tight and wet around him. Not with finally having you like this after only dreaming about it for so long. It was a miracle he hadn't come already. Maybe it was that drink.
It was definitely that drink.
You opened your mouth to speak but he ripped the words away with another quick snap of his hips.
All you could do was gasp again and nod.
He slammed into you again and set a quick pace, a broken moan immediately tearing from his throat. “Oh my God, yes.”
He made it his sole mission to do well on his promise to make it good for you. For half a second he wished he asked Hakon more, but the sounds you were starting to let out and the way your entire body was tensing up around him let him know he was doing something right.
The way he was holding you perfectly still without even really trying was starting to get to you. At one point you tried shifting your hips just to see if you could. You couldn't, and Aiden didn't even notice you'd tried.
“Aiden.” You gasped when he bit down on the skin under your ear. “Wanna sit in your lap.”
His thrusts slowed as he processed what you'd said, pulling his face out of your neck to blink down at you. “Yeah- yeah. Of course, Beautiful.”
When he moved, he didn't even slide out. He simply snaked his arms under your back to hold you flush against his chest, one hand between your shoulder blades, the other braced around the small of your back, and pulled you back with him.
The world spun as he lifted you into his lap right there on the floor. He leaned back against one of the decorative garden lattices, his head thumping back against the wood as he looked up at you through half shut eyes. He was panting, but it wasn't from exertion.
You didn't even need to explain what you wanted. Aiden grabbed onto your hips with both hands, lifted you up a few inches, and started pounding up into you. He was fucking you like a machine solely with the strength of his core and his arms. Like it was nothing.
You cried out, bracing yourself with your palms against his bare chest to keep from falling forward from the force of his thrusts. Aiden groaned at the sound, thrusting up harder, bracing his feet hard against the ground for more leverage.
“Yeah?” He asked, his voice ragged. “You like this? Huh?”
“Uh-huh!” You barely got it out between your gasps and moans. He was fucking you so deep and fast like this, it made it hard to focus on anything else.
“I can do this all night if you want.” He continued, and if to drive home his point, he snapped his hips up even faster.
“Oh, Aiden, please- please please please-”
He cut you off with a raw moan, yanking you down harshly, burying himself to the hilt and holding you there. “F-fuck. Say my name like that again. I'll give you anything you want, just keep doing that.”
“Aiden, please, I'm so close. Please, Aiden.” You whined as he rolled his hips up into you in tight circles.
His breath caught. “Yeah? You are?”
You nodded, grinding down in a way that matched his rhythm. “Mhm.”
His eyes rolled back and his breath shuddered in his chest. “Shit. Okay. Like this?” He asked and gave a sharp thrust up into you. You choked on a broken moan. “Or- or different?”
Your mind spun. You could barely form a coherent word, let alone form a thought. You blurted out the position you used when you were alone.
“My stomach.” You managed to gasp out, pulling at his shoulders. “Please.”
“Oh, fuck yes- okay. Okay. I've got you.” His voice trembled as he carefully leaned forward and maneuvered you onto the blankets again, on your stomach this time.
While he settled behind you, you slipped one of the pillows under your hips so you wouldn't have to hold yourself up for him. Your legs were like jelly and your body shook without his support.
Aiden stroked himself, his eyes locked on the sight of you arched like that, your folds glistening in only the UV now- the fire had long since gone out. Neither of you had even noticed.
He committed the image to memory and lowered himself over you, planting his knees around your thighs, bracing himself up on his elbows, literally caging you underneath him. He slid back in and you both let out long, helpless moans.
You didn't have time to bask in the relief of having him back inside you before he started fucking back into you with that same relentless pace as before. He drew his hips back until only the tip remained before driving himself back in balls deep, ripping a moan from your lips each time.
It didn't take long at all for your orgasm to build back up. The angle and the force and speed of his thrusts had him slamming against your clit each time he bottomed out, overwhelming you to a point where you could barely speak anymore.
“Aid-Aiden.” You gasped, fisting the blankets beside your head. “Fuck! I'm-”
“Close? Yeah?” He panted against your ear as he draped himself over you, his chest flush against your back, hips slapping against your ass. “Come on, Beautiful. I need it- need to feel it. Let it happen.”
Your jaw dropped and your eyes screwed shut as it hit you, blinding white pleasure jolting through your entire body. Your back arched, forcing your hips up higher, taking Aiden even deeper.
“Oh my God-” his voice broke. The feeling of you clenching and pulsing around him had his rhythm faltering, no matter how hard he tried to stay steady for you.
He could actually feel you coming around him. It was like nothing he'd ever felt before. Hot and tight and wet and everything his own fist had never been. And it was you.
“Fuck... I feel you.” He whimpered, running his fingers down your spine in a soothing gesture. “So good.”
“Aiden. Oh, God.” You reached blindly behind you, and his hand immediately grabbed you, thick fingers intertwining with yours. He squeezed your hand as you came around him.
Aiden buried his face in your neck to stifle another groan, trying to will his body to obey him.
It wouldn't.
“I'm close- I'm so close, Beautiful.” he choked out, thrusting into you with sloppy movements, desperate to reach his own peak now that you'd reached yours. “Wh-where do you want me? Quick.”
You said something that made him almost pause.
He sucked in a sharp breath, his rhythm faltering once again as he struggled to process what he wasn't sure he actually heard. “What?”
“Inside.” Your voice trembled. “Please-”
He let out a sound that had you clenching around him again. His breath hitched sharply. “Y-you're serious? You want me to- fuck, yes.”
You could feel the shift in him, this surge of confidence after not only making you come but being told he was allowed to come inside you. He squeezed your hand tighter on the blanket above your head, his other hand sliding under your chest to pull you even closer to him. He picked up the pace, trying to get there faster now that there was nothing holding him back.
It didn't take him long at all. A few sets of animalistic thrusts that had your body jerking up the blanket beneath you, each one sending the head of his cock grinding against that spot that made you cry out.
Aiden moaned your name. It was the only thing you ever wanted to hear for the rest of your life.
His body locked up on top of yours, his weight crushing you as he slammed in balls deep one last time and stayed there. His hips never stopped moving, tight, quick little grinds to keep himself buried as deep as possible, not wanting to draw out as much as a nanometer.
“Fuck- oh, God-” he choked out with a shaking voice as his body shuddered on top of yours. His hips jerked against your ass in desperate spasms as he emptied himself inside you.
You squeezed his hand and stroked your thumb over the scarred skin.
That simple act made another choked noise sound from his throat. His heart and body melted on top of you as he continued rutting against you, his lips smearing messy kisses along the back of your neck. “Oh, fuck, Beautiful. Oh. I love you.” He practically sobbed the words against your skin as he kept grinding himself through every pulse. He didn't even realize what he'd said, still too lost in the pleasure of his own orgasm.
You realized though, and it brought out a needy, exhausted whimper. You squeezed his hand tighter, the only thing you could do with him pressing you motionless into the blanket.
It was only until the last tremor had long since faded did he come to his senses. He planted his forehead against the back of your skull for a moment, sucking in a slow, steadying breath, before he pushed himself up on his hands. He helped you turn over on your side, his face flushed from his orgasm and a bit of embarrassment.
You reached for him, wrapping your arms around his neck. He laid down on his back, using an actual pillow under his head this time, and slid an arm around your shoulders as you draped yourself over his chest.
His heart thudded rapidly under your ear. You sighed, content, and closed your eyes.
“Are you okay?” He murmured, lazily stroking your hair.
You hummed and nodded. “Are you?”
He let out a breathless little laugh and nodded. “Yeah. Just… trying to process the fact I told you I love you in the middle of the most intense orgasm of my life.”
You didn't move. You didn't even breathe.
“Not exactly when or how I pictured saying it for the first time.” He added quietly. “Kind of just… slipped out.”
Now you couldn't help but smile against his skin. You reached out for the hand he had resting over your shoulder and he lifted it, allowing you to push your fingers between his.
“I love you too.”
The relief was palpable. His body melted under yours, and his chest sank with a deep and shaky exhale. “...Yeah?” His voice cracked a little. “Fuck.”
Your smile grew wider and you pressed a quick kiss to his sternum. “Thank you for tonight, Aiden.”
He stroked the back of your hand with his thumb. “Thanks for comin’ out here with me.” Quieter, he whispered, “I could spend a lifetime up here with you and it wouldn't be enough.”
Kyle Crane x f!Reader Smut: (A little) Superficial
Summary: Decades without a woman will drive a man crazy. Especially a man like Crane. When he meets you and finds out you're into him too but too scared to do anything about it, he does his best to get you comfortable enough to join him in bed.
Warningss/Mentions: unprotected sex, overstimulation, multiple rounds, multiple orgasms, age gap, LOTS of dirty talk
Notes: i have a huge headcanon that Kyle is REALLY good at dirty talk in bed. Like, I fully believe he would talk you through ALL OF IT
Kyle Crane used to know exactly how to talk to beautiful girls.
Most of the time, he didn't even need to talk. All it took was a few lingering looks, a little grin or two, maybe even a cocky one-liner, and said beautiful girl would be coming home with him. He'd give her the best night of her life, their words, not his, and they'd never speak again.
That was a long, long time ago. Before Harran. Before the countryside and the Baron and everything in-between. He hadn't even really thought about pretty girls, or sex, or getting his dick wet, all that much since then. Since the day he dropped into Harran he had bigger problems to spend his time thinking about.
Now the only thing he could think about for longer than ten seconds anymore was you.
You were beautiful. Like, really beautiful. You had the kind of face that made most men stop and stare when you walked into a room. The kind of face that made even Kyle Crane pause when he saw you for the first time. He was mid sentence, and then he wasn't.
You looked like you'd stepped out of an advertisement for a luxury sports car, or one of those commercials for that perfume that women like Natalie Portman used to star in. He remembered the commercial well.
You had this utterly feminine beauty that made his brain short circuit and all the blood in his head travel south. He hadn't had that sort of visceral reaction in longer than he could remember.
He was talking to Lydia when he saw you. You walked into that cave and he swore he felt the change in the air before he even turned to look. You were coming back from gathering intel for Lydia, smiling at her as you approached the two of them. You laughed at something she said, your face lighting up, and even Lydia smiled. Not that Kyle noticed. He was too busy standing across the table with his nostrils flared as he dragged your scent in his lugs like they were fumes getting him high.
When you glanced at him, Kyle's heart beat a little faster. Like a damn teenager. He spent the next short three minutes trying to act normal. He kept his eyes on the map on the table when you looked at him, and when you looked away, his eyes snapped back up to you like magnets he couldn't keep apart.
You handed Lydia something Kyle didn't bother to look at. You said something he didn't really hear. He only processed the fact that you kept glancing at him while you spoke with the older woman.
Even though you made him stupid, you didn't make him brainless. He understood from your body language that you clearly thought he was attractive. You couldn't hold eye contact for more than a second, you'd smile and look down, you angled your body towards him even when you spoke to Lydia. You were interested.
You were a little scared, too. He could smell the fear spiking on you when he took a small step around the table towards you when Lydia gave a quick introduction.
He didn't pay too much attention to it in that moment. All he cared about was the fact that you were interested.
Most women were. He was used to that. It just wasn't really something he cared enough to give thought to anymore. Women were on the back burner, and that burner wasn't even on. Not when his sole reason for breathing was blind, bloodthirsty vengeance.
For those three minutes he breathed solely for you- the Baron, the Beast, the Chimera Lydia had him hunting were all completely devoid from his thoughts.
He later learned just how scared of him you were.
When he wasn't so wrapped up in how to get you to look at him for just a little longer, he noticed it. Every time he moved, your eyes would dart towards his hands like you expected him to reach out and snap your neck. Every time he spoke you would tense up a little, like you expected him to start shouting at you.
That hurt him a little more than he'd ever admit.
Kyle Crane worked hard to get where he was with you now. Countless runs together, which were hard to plan out with just the two of you. Someone else always wanted to go, and it wasn't like Kyle could exactly say out loud that he wanted you alone. Especially considering how wary you were of him. So someone else would always come. Some young runner, either starstruck by the ‘Legend of Castor Woods’, or entranced by the most beautiful woman in the damn country.
After the first few runs, you'd noticeably loosened up. You stopped watching him like you expected him to snap. On days where it was just the two of you, you stopped looking over your shoulder every few minutes to make sure he wasn't… doing whatever the hell you thought he was up to behind your back.
You'd even started making conversation with him. Voluntarily.
It was late when the two of you got back to the exile's cave. Just an hour before dark. Kyle had herded you to the back chamber he'd been recently sleeping in more often than his room in Town Hall. To ‘help Lydia track down the beast in the woods’. A flimsy excuse to spend more time around you, since Lydia had a room for you in the back of the cave near the medbay.
“Why does it hurt so bad?” The sound of your voice directed at him was rare.
Kyle glanced up from the gauze he was unwrapping to see you wincing, trying to reach the shallow cut on your back. The positioning was awful, right below your shoulder blades where you couldn't reach it yourself. The positioning was another perfect excuse for Kyle to spend more time around you. Something he jumped at the chance to take.
You were sitting in the chair in the corner of his room, next to one of the small tables. As far away from him as you could get.
“Sometimes those little ones hurt the most.” He muttered. He opened the bottle of rubbing alcohol he kept on his desk, nearly empty from how often he'd had to use it. Not on himself- his wounds healed overnight thanks to what the Baron turned him into- but from crafting. “Fingernails are more jagged than blades. Gives more localized trauma.”
You nodded, but it didn't look like you were really listening. You had this fuzzy expression, your brows pinched together in the middle, your eyes locked on some nonspecific point behind him. You only looked up when he moved away from the table and approached you.
The way you instinctively widened your eyes at him closing the distance made him pause. He waited until you relaxed again before reaching for you.
When he lifted your tank top, he couldn't help but stop and stare.
Your skin was free from scars. There wasn't a single one on your back. You were soft, he noticed, as he dabbed the damp gauze over the shallow cut. His fingertips brushed across your skin in a move that wasn't entirely accidental and he felt exactly how soft your skin is. He watched the goosebumps rise in a line where his finger had been and tried not to feel disgusted with himself.
Seeing the lack of scars on the surface of your back interrupted by a scratch from a Viral made something ugly twist deep in his gut. He wanted to do more than snap its neck the way he did an hour prior.
He wanted to skin its rotting flesh from its bones and throw it under UVs to burn away into nothing. He wanted to rip its jaw straight out from its skull and tear its throat out for marking you like that.
His top lip twitched at the thought and he felt even more disgusted with himself.
He was plagued with those same foul thoughts the next time the two of you went on a run together.
The run itself went fine. You got some supplies for his mission to lure the beast out of the woods. A few nonperishables for the exiles. The day went by without a hitch.
It was the night that gave you trouble.
His truck had broken down in the forest and he couldn't fix it without another battery. The sun was setting. A tall hunters tower was the closest safe house, the same tower he'd secured a week before meeting you. You barely made it up the ladder before the sun fully dipped down below the horizon.
You were in a good mood that night. You'd found a chocolate bar in the gas station and had taken your first bite when the UV lights suddenly cut off. The tower fell silent, the electrical hum stopping short, making both of you look up from what you were doing.
“It's the wires.” He muttered before you had a chance to ask. “Should have replaced them when I had the chance.”
You were so scared you were trembling. You handed him a bundle of wires from your bag and he got to work while you held the flashlight for him.
He was halfway through splicing the third wire when the screech of a Viral broke through the night time silence. It had seen his light and the lack of UV around it.
“Shit.” He grumbled under his breath. He had no problem taking it out with a perfectly timed throwing knife. It was the next three that started climbing.
He handed you the tools like he was handing you a hot potato and lunged. He worked vigorously, standing right on top of the ladder, swinging his machete into meat and kicking skulls before they could reach the top. Every few seconds he'd glance over his shoulder to make sure none had scaled up the back of the tower, and he'd only look back in front of him when he was sure you were safe.
He hadn't had someone worth protecting like this in a long time.
You were working just as hard as him, replacing wires with trembling fingers while your teeth clattered around the flashlight you'd stuck in your mouth. Every few seconds you'd glance at Kyle to your left to make sure he wasn't being swarmed.
“One more!” You shouted around the light, your words coming out rushed and slurred.
Despite the adrenaline, despite the anger, Kyle forced his voice into a lower tone when he replied. “Don't rush. I've got this. Like swatting down gnats.” He said as he yanked his machete free from a Viral’s skull and kicked the body off the ledge.
The Volatile came next. It tore through the Virals, shoving them aside like they were nothing, and climbed up the ladder so fast he barely had time to counter it.
The sound of you screaming is what sent him into that state he hated. He let out a roar that sounded more Volatile than man, clicking on his UV light to stun it while he kicked it backwards. It stumbled off the ledge but held on. His UV crackled and buzzed as it turned off.
He ran at the beast, planting two hands on its chest, and drove it backwards, pushing himself over the ledge with his boots braced on the wooden paneling.
The two tumbled to the ground. Kyle used the momentum to drive his machete through its chest and twisted, slicing the cavity open. He threw the melee weapon to the ground and stood up, chest heaving, the blue in his right eye replaced with glowing bright red.
He tore through several more Biters and Virals. You threw down a UV flair at some point, which bought him about thirty seconds before the next Volatile came. He handled that one with a bit more difficulty- his adrenaline was fading, the GSB-fueled state wearing thin. He tackled it to the ground, placed both hands in its gaping maw, and ripped the bottom jaw clean off.
He stood up and braced himself for the next wave with a heaving chest. There were dozens more. One grabbed his shoulder, he ripped the arm clean off. Another went for his neck, he tore its head free from its shoulders. Three more came at him-
The UV lights overhead flickered back to life with a strong hum. He looked up, squinting against the bright light, and saw you peering over the edge with wide eyes. The rest of the infected screamed, some stumbling away, most falling to their knees to shield their faces from the light out of human instinct still deeply engrained into their rotting brains.
Kyle climbed the ladder and rolled it up.
You were still shaking when he approached you. He realized he must have been just as terrifying as the Volatile. Bloody, panting like a feral dog, one red eye still glowing as he tried to come back to himself.
“Are you okay?” You managed, the backs of your knees hitting the makeshift bed behind you. You stumbled back and he caught you with a wet hand around your bicep, steadying you before you fell.
Your entire arm tensed. He let you go.
“I'm fine.” His voice didn't entirely sound like his own yet. It was still layered with something darker. “You did good. Real damn good. You alright?”
You nodded slowly, like you weren't sure if you were or not. You glanced down at the red handprint on your white button up.
“Shit.” He cursed under his breath. “Sorry. I'll- I'll get you a new one.”
A ridiculous concern. Most people were still wearing clothes with enough bloodstains to make the cloth a completely different color. Stains didn't matter in this world.
This stain did. To him. You deserved clothes without bloody handprints on them. You were too pretty for that.
You smiled like you weren't. “It's okay. My dad set up our zone near the mall. I've got plenty of these.”
Of course you did. Kyle knew your father well. The big shot Holt, leader of the largest settlement in Castor Woods. Decorated war hero. It only made sense someone like you would have a father like that.
Only when you were patching him up that night did Kyle notice the progress he'd made with you.
On your first run together, the one Logan and Travis came along for, you stuck well behind the two males the entire time. He could feel you staring at the back of his head like a stray cat curious about the human trying to feed it. You didn't speak to him the entire day. When he spoke to you, either giving instructions or commands, you'd just nod your head. You talked to the other men just fine. You even flirted your way into one of them giving you his chocolate granola bar, a rare treat in this day in age.
You'd jump when he got too close. Your eyes would widen if he walked directly towards you. You flinched when he tried to hand you something.
Now you were sitting on the bed behind him, so close he could feel your breath on the back of his neck while you cleaned the wounds on his shoulder.
Two bite marks and a gash from a Volatile claw. Injuries that would put a normal man out for a week at least. Injuries that would be nothing more than scars for Kyle tomorrow. Still, you'd offered to clean him up. He would be a fool to turn down that offer. He didn't need to tell you it wasn't necessary if it meant you'd put your hands on him. He was still a man, afterall. And you were… you.
“This looks really bad.” Your voice was quiet and shaky as you cleaned around the deep gash from the Volatile. “You sure you don't want stitches?”
He waved you off with a comforting tone like he was the one tending to you. “Easy… I've had worse. Much worse.”
You worked in silence for another minute before he spoke again.
“You're good at this.” He murmured as you dabbed an alcohol-soaked gauze pad over his bicep. “Gentle.”
He could feel the air around you lighten at the praise. “Thanks. I used to patch my dad's runners up a lot. They've got a real medic now.”
Kyle snorted. “Real medics got nothing on you, kid.”
He froze.
Kid. He called you fucking kid. He closed his eyes and groaned, resisting the urge to slap his hand onto his face. He was thinking of how to backtrack or change the subject when he smelt it.
This faint, sweet, heady scent coming off of you in waves, the smell instantly sending the blood from his head down south. He thought it might have just been the proximity working you up until he gave it more than a second of thought.
You'd watched him fight like an animal to protect you. Tearing into Infected with his machete like he was cutting butter. Driving a Volatile off the tower twenty feet below where he killed it with his bare hands. Crawling back up that ladder to you, breathing heavy, nostrils flared, right eye red and glowing. All of it to protect you. If he'd been alone he would've just booked it to the closest safe zone. But you were there, and you were nowhere near as fast as him.
He'd gone full beast for you. The best part? You weren't looking at him like he was a monster anymore, like that first week. Your touches on his bare shoulders lingered, unusually gentle, and your fingers were trembling.
Not from fear. Your fear smelt like white lightning. This smelt like molten sweetness. You desired him. The same way plenty of other women had desired him before.
The realization made his jeans feel too small all of a sudden.
He said nothing about it. But he did reach for you. One hand, nice and slow so you could clearly see it, reached behind him. He didn't look. He knew exactly where each part of you was without looking. You were sitting directly behind him on the mattress, your legs folded under you.
His hand settled on your knee.
You froze. Of course you did. Kyle didn't mind. He knew you weren't freezing because you were scared. He kept his hand motionless, big palm cupping your knee while he waited for you to get back to cleaning the bite mark.
When you finally started moving again, he started moving his thumb. He rubbed circles on your knee, stroking over your worn blue jeans. You were still so tense. He wanted to work that tension out of every part of you with his fingers.
He knew he could, if you'd just let him.
The Kyle Crane he was in Harran would have turned around and kissed you now. And you would have let him. This Kyle Crane didn't. He just kept his hand on you, thumb brushing gentle circles while you cleaned the blood and dirt from the bite. After a little while, his hand moved up. Just an inch, until his palm cupped the outside of your thigh.
Then, when you relaxed under his touch, he slid his hand a little higher. He had to turn his body slightly, which turned out fine because you needed to clean a bite on his bicep anyway. He glanced at you and saw how pink your cheeks were. Your eyes flicked to his and held his gaze for a fraction of a second before they darted back down to his bicep.
He saw the way you were looking at more of his arm than just the injuries. Your gaze followed the curve of his taut muscles, the sweat dripping down the lines in his arm, the dark hair covering his forearm. Your eyes lingered there. He brought it up.
“GSB’s got me turning into a fuckin’ werewolf.” He joked, trying for humor.
You let out a little breathy laugh like you were relieved he was making conversation. “Yeah.”
He smirked, just barely. He brushed the inside of your thigh with his thumb, feeling the muscle tense up under his palm for a moment before you relaxed again.
“When I was in the special forces I used to shave my arms.” He admitted. The memory made his smirk widen.
Your brows shot up. “Really? Why?”
He gave a shrug with the shoulder you weren't tending to. “Had a guy tell me girls don't like fur.”
You laughed, the sound real and natural. It made his heart melt in a way he wasn't used to. “That guy was wrong.”
He raised a brow. “Yeah? You into the whole werewolf thing?”
You laughed again. Your cheeks were pinker. “Uhm… kind of.”
He snorted all cool and smooth like he wasn't also grinning like an idiot. He squeezed your thigh absentmindedly, his grin faltering when he heard the way your breath hitched. He fought to think of something to say.
“Kind of, is that right?” He tilted his head slightly, turning his body towards you more until the only injury you could see anymore was the one on his bicep. “Guess that makes one of us. GSB really said ‘go big or go home’ with the hair. Should see my legs.” He watched the way your throat worked at the mental image he gave.
He barely heard the way you inhaled a little more shallow, like the mere idea was getting you all worked up. Judging by the way you smelled, you were.
The new angle he sat in provided you a better view of his chest. You could see the hair on his pecs, curled with sweat, and as your eyes trailed lower, your pupils blew wider.
Kyle watched the way your gaze followed the dark line of hair down the center of his abdomen and stopped where it disappeared under the waistband of his jeans. Your hands weren't even moving on his bicep anymore.
The Hero of Harran would have offered to show you where that trail ended. That Kyle would have stood up, moved to stand in front of you and unbuckle his belt all slow and smooth so he could watch the way your mouth watered.
This Kyle didn't. He didn't push any more after that. He squeezed your thigh when you were done and pulled his shirt back on like a fucking idiot.
This Kyle Crane slept on the floor like a guard dog that night, and he didn't complain about it. Not even when he woke up the next day with his joints aching.
Kyle Crane never used to be the overly possessive type. Sure, in high school maybe. He got into a few fights over girls before- threw a few punches, shoved a few guys. But that was every testosterone-fueled seventeen year old with their first real girlfriend. He grew out of it fast when he realized he could have just about any woman he wanted. No need to be territorial when he could have a better one in a week. Not that he was a douchebag- he never played with women's emotions. He always told them how it was. They never seemed to mind, and neither did he.
Kyle liked those magical nights where he didn't give a shit if they were still hung up on an ex or were talking to other guys.
That was a long, long time ago.
Now the only thing he could think about was the fact that you smelled like Aiden Caldwell and the fact it made him so mad his face burned.
He'd carried the unconscious man back into the cave the night before after beating the everloving fuck out of him. Then you and Lydia cleaned the copious amounts of blood and dirt off of him while he was still knocked out. You even rinsed his hair out, gently running your fingers through his tangled locks while you poured over a stream of warm water.
When you finished and went to get dinner, you sat down across the fire from Kyle and he immediately smelled Caldwell all over you.
He didn't know why he gave a shit. You hadn't even spoken to the kid. Aiden had been unconscious the entire time you'd been around him. He hadn't even spoken to you, he literally didn't even know you existed. But his scent was still all over you. Your fingers, your hands, your wrists up to your elbows where the rag had gotten your arms damp. Your neck, where you'd mindlessly stroked the skin there as you patted his forehead dry. Your hair, where you'd brushed it behind your ear when you were finished.
You glanced up at him from across the fire and your gaze quickly dropped back to your plate.
You were still scared of him. You were scared of him and you smelled like another man. You couldn't look him in the eyes and you had Aiden Caldwell's scent all over you.
Kyle stabbed his fork into some unidentifiable boiled vegetable and chewed so hard he felt his jaw tick.
He couldn't blame you. You'd seen the way he'd taken on Aiden with nothing more than a bat- beating the feral, Volatile beast unconscious while simultaneously trying not to kill him. You had seen the way he ripped through infected like they were made out of clay- ripping the heads off of Virals, punching his fist straight through the chests of Biters.
He was something to be scared of. You were smart to be wary. If you were any smarter you'd get up from the campfire and walk away and never look back. He was dangerous. Not even he knew how dangerous he could be, yet.
Kyle Crane was something to be scared of.
He tried to pretend that wasn't true later that night. He was smoking a cigarette outside- a bad habit he'd picked up recently. The GSB and whatever the hell else the Baron put in him made things like cigarettes and alcohol as harmless as oxygen and water. It would take a lot more than some tobacco smoke to do any damage to his lungs anymore.
He liked the little head buzz it gave him. It felt like his first cigarette all over again.
You had come outside for some reason. Maybe to grab something from your truck. Kyle didn't know. All he knew was he could smell your flowery lotion and shampoo invading his nose, and a minute later you were walking out of the cave entrance beside him.
You froze when you saw him standing there and took an unconscious step back before stopping yourself.
He pretended he didn't see the way you'd backed away from him and offered a small nod before looking back to the trail ahead. In the weeks of knowing you, Kyle had perfected non-intimidating body language. Not making eye contact was something he noticed made your heart rate slow down. Not speaking unless you spoke to him first was another thing he noticed eased your tension.
“Hi.” You said, turning to face him. Your eyes landed on the cigarette hanging loosely between his lips. “I didn't know you smoke.”
He pulled it out and exhaled a lungful of smoke. He shrugged one shoulder. “I didn't.” He watched you for a moment before extending it out towards you.
He didn't want you to take it. The thought of that foul smelling smoke damaging your perfectly healthy lungs and covering your own scent made him upset. He didn't stop you when you reached out and took it from his fingers with your own much thinner fingers. They made his digits look ridiculous in comparison when they brushed against them.
“Thanks.” You offered a smile and took a drag. You immediately frowned and blew the smoke out as fast as possible, making a face that made him almost grin in amusement. Almost. The most you got out of him was a slight twitch of his lips.
His heart ached. You were so beautiful it hurt.
You handed it back to him. “That’s gross.”
He snorted and ashed the cigarette, watching the bits of glowing orange drift down to the ground. You'd left a faint, almost transparent, rose-colored ring around the filter from your tinted lip balm. The lip balm he'd watched you apply several times throughout the day. He stared down at it for a few seconds before he put the cherry out on the stone behind him. He didn't take another hit.
“You're going after the Baron tomorrow?” You asked, drawing his eyes away from the butt back towards you.
He watched you for a second before he nodded.
“Can I ask you something?” You shifted your weight on your feet. You were hugging yourself. The urge to shed his jacket for you was so strong he almost reached down to unzip it.
“You can.” He said instead. “But you might not get an answer.”
An attempt at humor that didn't succeed.
“I heard one of the people at Town Hall call you the Hero of Harran.” The words coming from your mouth felt like a punch in his gut. “Did you really do all that?”
He rolled the cigarette butt between his fingers at his side. “Depends on what, ‘all that' is.”
“Saving and helping all those people. Standing against the GRE. Killing that man… R…. Rais.” You pronounce the name like ‘Rice' and it gives him a fond feeling in his chest. “The Mother.”
He nodded.
Something in your expression changed. Like you just realized what exactly it was you had standing in front of you. Awe, admiration, both stronger than fear. Those stories were all stronger than the stories of him dismembering the Baron’s men and destroying his Chimeras with his bare hands. Stronger than the fact that he was a sentient Volatile who could turn into a monster if pushed. Stronger than the monster standing in front of you.
And he had to go and fucking ruin it. “Doesn't matter anymore. None of it does.” He said.
Your awe faded to sad confusion. “Why?”
He should have just shut up. “Was all for nothing. Harran fell. All those people died anyway.”
The look on your face made him grimace. Five seconds ago you were looking at him like he was a hero. Now you were looking at him with this mix of grief and sympathy. You crossed your arms again and looked down.
He sighed heavily. “Sorry.” He muttered, looking away. “Didn't mean to get all nihilistic on you.”
“It's okay.” You were obviously trying to keep your voice light despite his pessimism. You paused, watching him for the moment his eyes weren't on you. He felt your gaze but didn't meet it, knowing you'd look away the second his eyes shifted towards you.
“I don't think it was for nothing.” You continued. “I know they ended up dying, but you gave them more time. I'm sure most people would kill for longer. Even if it was just… a little longer.”
Your voice had softened even further, it practically sounded like you were trying to soothe an upset child. Somehow, you'd managed to make that sound pleasant, not condescending.
Or maybe Kyle just had it bad for you. “Guess so. Wouldn't really say giving people a few more months makes me the ‘Hero of Harran’, though.” He said the name like it was a joke.
“You did a lot more than that.” You gave him a small, almost endearing smile. “You did a lot here, too. You're like, Superman of Towns in Need.”
Kyle didn't expect that. He chuckled. “Superman? S’that right?”
For the first time, Kyle heard you laugh. It wasn't a full laugh, more of a weak giggle, but it was still something he hadn't heard up until that point. “Yeah! You're Superman.”
He couldn't not look at you now. You were still looking at him with that same endearing smile, but it was softer. He didn't realize he was returning it until he noticed the flush in your cheeks and his smile softened.
He should say something witty. Make a reference to Lois Lane and make you blush harder.
He should do something. Step closer to you and brush your hair behind your ear. Get some of Aiden off of you and replace it with his own scent. You were looking at him like you were waiting for him to do something.
He turned and took a step towards you.
You didn't mean to step back. He knew that, you knew that. It didn't make the pang in his chest any less real. He didn't take any more steps forward.
He walked back inside instead.
Kyle Crane used to know how to sweet talk women.
He could charm a woman out of her better judgement in minutes. Flash her that crooked grin, show off his nice teeth, maybe throw in a wink or push her hair behind her ear and let his thumb brush over her cheek. He could vividly remember the way the girls in Iraq would blush at the bar when the smooth American soldier would flirt with him.
None of those girls were anything compared to you. He felt like the one flushed just handing you a drink in that crowded cave. Prettiest girl he'd seen in decades- maybe his life- and he was too rusty to confidently flirt with you. It didn't help that you were scared of him.
Kyle and Aiden had killed the Baron. Most of his soldiers were dead.
They had reason to celebrate, and they were. Lydia was resting in her quiet part of the cave, but the rest of the exiles and people from Town Hall were drinking and making merry. You were eating a kebab of venison and wild mushroom when Kyle approached you, holding a cup of whatever the hell Starchild had crafted.
“What is it?” You asked, peering into the cup. You wrinkled your nose at the smell and failed to bite back a smile of amusement, looking back up at him.
He smiled despite himself. He'd already downed two of the drinks- the first to ease the ache in his body, the second because the first made him feel so good. It made him feel warm and heavy and it made the self disgust in his chest almost non-existent.
Made it easier to be around you. Made his skin itch and made his eyes heavy. Made him smile at you.
“Good question. Don't even think Starchild really knows the answer.” He took a sip of his third drink. “It doesn't matter. Drink, you deserve it.”
It was obvious you didn't think you'd done much today. Kyle refused to let you come, it was far too dangerous, the risk of something happening to you far too high. Lydia had backed him up without explicitly stating you being there would be too much of a distraction for Kyle. So you stayed behind, and when they got back, you helped patch up the injured.
Which included Aiden. Despite his rapid healing you'd insisted on at least cleaning the wounds. The kid didn't even argue- what man would? A woman who looked like she'd stepped out of a Hollywood movie wanted to clean blood off his chest? Any man would jump at the opportunity, and several men had tonight.
Aiden wasn't as rusty as Kyle. The second he saw you that night he had turned on his charm. He grinned at you with his nice teeth, flexed in a way that wasn't obvious when you cleaned his back, spoke to you in that low voice that gave you goosebumps. Kyle saw it all. He saw himself in the kid. He saw Kyle Crane, about thirty years younger. And in you, he saw the countless girls he used to make swoon.
He forced himself to stop remembering the way your eyes lingered on Aiden's abs. The way you didn't flinch away when Aiden walked towards you. The way you didn't lean away when his hand came up to play with your hair while you cleaned a graze on his bicep.
“The whole thing?” You asked cautiously.
Kyle nodded. Part of him screamed at him to shake his head no- the whole thing might make you sick. But the part that wanted you to loosen up a little around him screamed louder.
It worked well. After your first few sips you'd visibly relaxed; your shoulders lowering, your posture straightening despite how close he was to you. You could look him in the eyes for more than half a second at a time.
And then you finished the drink. You sat a little closer to him on the log. He got you a second drink and then you were so close he could reach out and touch you.
You sat next to him in front of the fire later that night, two drinks in you, an easy smile on your lips as you nursed your third. You'd drifted into that effortless state of being you owned when Kyle wasn't around. The state that knew just how beautiful you were. You made purposeful eye contact with him and held it evenly. You leaned in when he spoke, laughed easily, and spoke in that soft voice he'd heard you use on traders when they had something you didn't want to pay full price for. But Kyle didn't have anything you wanted to pay for.
It wasn't an act. The realization made him a little bolder.
You were smiling after he'd told you a story about the time back in Harran when he crashed through someone's bathroom skylight while they were on the toilet when he was running from a Volatile.
“What did he do?”
Kyle snorted. “Screamed. Grabbed a gun he kept in the cabinet and shot at me.”
“What did you do?’
“Apologized and jumped back out of the skylight.”
You laughed. “Superman.”
He grinned at that.
Your laughter faded as you looked at him. You smiled to yourself before sipping your drink. “Maybe you need to drink this more often.”
“Yeah?” He challenged, his voice lower and softer than it had been in over a decade. “I do, huh?”
“Yeah.” You smiled. It made his stomach flip. You were so beautiful it hurt to look at. “I like your stories. You haven't spoken this much in the… how long has it been? A little over a month?” When he nodded you smiled wider. “In the month I've known you. It's nice.”
He took a large sip of his fifth drink. The bitter taste was practically background noise to him now. “Haven't had a reason to talk this much lately.”
“You should definitely start drinking this more often then.” You teased, your voice playful and light. “You have a nice voice. It's a shame I barely ever hear it.”
The compliment oiled gears that he had forgotten existed. Gears he'd have trouble stopping from turning. His lip twitched in an almost grin.
“Nice voice.” He repeated, bringing his cup to his lips. “Yeah. Alright.”
Your brows shot up and you laughed softly. “I'm serious. It's really nice. I could fall asleep listening to you speak.”
“Sounds like a nice way to say you're bored.” He joked.
Your laugh made his pulse spike again. “No! You know that's not what I mean. It's deep… and rough in a good way.” Kyle noticed the way your own voice had lowered in volume again and turned softer and warmer. Meant for only his ears.
He lowered his voice in response, leaning forward slightly in his seat in the way he knew used to make girls' hearts flutter. “You're really laying it on thick tonight. Starting to think I should be worried. Am I gonna wake up with a missing kidney?”
The proximity and tone of his voice worked on you. He caught the faint flush on your cheeks and the way your eyes flickered between his mouth and his eyes like you couldn't decide what to look at. He felt another small wave of confidence wash over him.
“No.” You responded a little less smoothly, your voice a little breathier. “I'm just being honest. I can stop with the compliments, if you want. Just thought you should know you've got aces you aren't using.”
The corner of his mouth twitched into a small, barely there grin. “I still remember how to run my mouth when a pretty girl gives me an opening. Might not shut up if you don't stop.”
He saw the way your pupils blew wider. His nostrils flared instinctively. His chest slowly rose as he inhaled the spike of warm sweetness in the air.
You licked your lips and forced a playful smile. “What would the Hero of Harran do?”
Kyle gave a real chuckle, slightly surprised at how easy it all felt now. “Back then? I'd already be telling you exactly what I've been thinking about doing to you since you first walked in this cave.” He said. “Would've made it sound a lot prettier than I probably can now.”
Your lips parted as you forced yourself to inhale slowly. His eyes followed the jump in your throat as you swallowed hard. They trailed down to the pulse he could see beating like a hammer in your neck, something he never would have been able to notice before he was turned into the monster he is now.
His eyes lingered on that frantic heartbeat before he dragged them back up to yours.
“What would he tell me?”
He tilted his head slightly, gaze drifting down your form as he thought of a way to word what he was thinking without sounding fucking insane. It didn't take him as long as he expected before he opened his mouth again.
“He'd tell you to stop asking about him and just listen to what I have to say, because I'm not him anymore.” He murmured. “I don't wanna talk about what some dead version of me would do. I want to tell you that I hate smelling other men on you. Every time I smell someone else… Caldwell, Keller. I think about touching you until the only things you smell like anymore are my hands and my mouth.”
His words surprised even him. Still, he continued, leaning closer, so close he could feel the warmth of your breath against his skin as he looked down at you sitting beside him on that uncomfortable log. “That's what I wanna do. Right now, if you let me.”
Kyle watched as the gorgeous, once-so-confident woman in front of him melted away. A softer, warmer, more breathless girl replaced her. You were looking up at Kyle in a way that was similar to the other times you'd looked up at him; eyes wide and darting to every movement he made, lips parted, chest fluttering with quick breaths. Except now, you weren't trembling with fear.
You didn't have any equally smooth words to toss back at him. You didn't smirk or grin, or lean forward and drop your voice the way he had. All you could do was nod and breathe something in return. “Yeah. Please.”
“Yeah?” He murmured. His heart raced just as fast as yours, pounding against his ribs like a sledgehammer despite the intended opposite effect of Starchild's drink.
You nodded again.
He swept his gaze across the main cave chamber. Starchild was standing next to the pot he'd been refilling all night, pouring Florence her first cup. If he hadn't been so preoccupied with what he had in store for you, Kyle would've been shocked at the sight. Jacob was with her, laughing about something Starchild said. Aiden was talking with Keller and a few others Kyle recognized as Town Hall’s people.
No one was watching you. That was rare. There were usually a few sets of eyes on you at any given time.
Kyle looked back to you beside him and inhaled long and deep, raking his eyes over your body. He'd thought about this so many times, so many different ways. He ran through each in his head as he reached out and brushed your hair away from your neck.
The most recurring fantasy rang clear; a view of you from below, your mouth falling open in a shameless moan, your brows pinched tightly together, those beautiful eyes half-lidded and aimed down at him beneath you. You would lean down and kiss him every time he imagined it. Whisper something Kyle knew he'd never be lucky enough to hear come from your lips.
Right here though, right in front of him, you were looking at him like he was the only thing in that cave, leaning into his touch as he brushed his thumb along the line of your jaw. That mattered more than any moonlight fantasy.
The Hero of Harran would have carried you into that room he slept in by now. He probably would have your clothes off already.
The Beast of Castor Woods thought that was a great idea too.
He led you away from the main section of the cave, pushing through the tarp he'd put up over the opening to his smaller chamber. He'd put it up a day after he met you once he realized how often people walk past it to get to the rest of the cave.
The second that tarp fell back into place behind him he was on you. His hands settled on your hips the way they've done only a handful of times before when he had needed to steady you. You reached up, gripping onto the front of his green jacket as he dipped his head down to kiss you.
It went exactly the same as he'd imagined it hundreds of times in his head. Your lips were so soft, sweet from that rose tinted lip balm, and they moved just as soft and sweet against his. He leaned down lower, tilting his head to get a better angle, his lips slotting perfectly against yours.
His head spun. His breath caught in his throat. His heart hadn't beat that fast over a girl since he had his first kiss in eighth grade with Melissa Fox. He wasn't thinking about her, though, or any other woman he'd kissed. The second his lips touched yours, you were the only woman he could remember ever laying eyes on.
Your hands slid up the front of his chest, balling in his layered fabric, fingers trying to pull some of them apart. Kyle let you fumble with them by yourself for a while as he simply enjoyed kissing you, tasting your lips before he parted his.
He felt your breath warm over his mouth when you opened yours in response. He shared your air, inhaling your warm exhales, exhaling into your open mouth as he slipped his tongue past his teeth. He ran it over your bottom lip, then your top, tasting your lip balm directly before he dipped in further.
The very tip of his tongue met the very tip of yours and you sucked in this quiet, shuddery gasp that had something hot twisting low in his gut. He groaned in response and slid his tongue over yours, one hand leaving your waist to slip through that soft hair he'd dreamed of touching for a month. It felt just as soft and smooth as it looked, just as he imagined.
He pressed forward until his chest brushed against yours, the contact making your body sway back slightly. His hand still on your hip gripped a little tighter, steadying you, while his fingers wrapped loosely around a handful of hair.
He kissed you softer than he'd been planning on. In his heated thoughts he'd have you moaning in his mouth, his tongue down your throat, your lips red and puffy from his teeth.
This was better. You weren't moaning, you were gasping and letting out these quiet little whimpers. You were trembling under his touch with need. He could smell it on you. Oh, God. He could smell it.
The hand in your hair tightened at the realization, pulling your head back, opening you up more for his tongue. You gasped again in his mouth, sharper this time, and Kyle barely restrained a growl in response.
“Yeah?” He breathed against your lips slick with his saliva. His eyes scanned down over your face, taking in your disheveled expression of arousal. He tugged again, a little harder, drawing out that same sharp gasp. Your cheeks were flushed red. It made more and more blood leave his head.
You looked like you barely managed to answer him. “Uh-huh.” You exhaled.
He backed you up until your legs bumped against his crafting table. He dropped his head again, planting a kiss on the corner of your mouth, trailing from your cheek to your jaw down to the side of your neck. He kissed that spot your pulse hammered underneath, his lips leaving faint traces of your mixed saliva. You shivered when his breath fanned over the damp spots.
His hand slid under your shirt. Your stomach was warm and soft under his rough palm. It was enough to draw another groan from deep in his throat. He sucked on that sweet spot on your neck while his hand slid up your torso, fingers mapping your tense abdomen up to the edge of your bra. Of course you were wearing a bra. It was you.
You, the stark contrast to everything that made Kyle who he was. Sweet. Pretty. Put together in a way that was foreign these days.
You reached behind you and unclasped it. You unhooked the straps, something Kyle thought was a fantastic mechanism, and let the fabric fall out from under your shirt to land near your feet. Kyle picked it up and set it on his table next to the cigarette butt with rose colored markings.
When he finally touched your breasts he couldn't help but grunt, the sound low and rumbling in his chest. They were perfect. Just as he- better than he imagined them. Just as pretty as the rest of you. He cupped them both with his hands, calloused thumbs brushing over your firm nipples.
“Fuck…” he exhaled against your neck before planting another open-mouthed kiss there. “Forgot how soft a woman could feel.”
You shuddered, arching into his hands. The way you responded so strongly to his touch had him emboldened once again. He pressed forward, his legs grazing yours as he planted a boot between your feet, his right knee gently nudging yours apart. He didn't immediately rush into it- he let you feel his thigh sliding higher up the insides of your thighs before he let his knee settle directly between them.
Your pelvis tilted forward just a fraction. Just enough for him to feel the friction and your heat on his knee through two layers of denim. You gasped again, soft and sweet, and Kyle firmly pressed his knee forward. He was desperate to hear that sound as many times as you'd let him. He pulled back, dragging his thick knee along your core, before he pushed it forward again.
You let out a louder sound at the movement, more of a strained whine than a gasp, and your hips rocked forward unintentionally, seeking more of that same, slow friction.
Kyle groaned in the crook of your neck. His hands pushed your shirt up, exposing your midriff to the cool air of the cave. He felt the goosebumps rise along your skin as he pushed and pushed until you were lifting your arms for him to start pulling. He set your shirt on top of your bra.
He devoured you with his eyes. They roamed over what little he could actually see, since he couldn't bear to take his hands off of your breasts for more than a second at a time. You were too soft and too warm.
He devoured you with his mouth next. He kissed down from your neck to your nipples, kissing delicately around each one before wrapping his lips around the hardened bud. He started with your right; swirling his tongue, drawing out more and more noises from you, tasting your sweat and faint honeysuckle lotion. He rolled your left nipple between his fingers before alternating, showing exactly equal attention to both. His knee continued that slow, heavy drag against your core, adjusting his pace to match your hips uneven grinding.
Your hands were threaded in his hair like you wanted to pull on it but couldn't due to the short length. He hummed around your nipple, his head instinctively leaning into your touch, and let his forehead rest against your collarbone while he sucked and nipped. Each time he grazed his teeth over your skin you would jolt slightly, your nails pressing into his scalp.
It took him forever to pull himself away from your chest. He looked down at you through heavy lids, his vision of you below him hazy, almost dreamlike. His pupils were blown so wide even his silver eye looked black. He let out a heavy sigh and ran his tongue over his bottom lip, shaking his head, eyes flicking over your face.
“God.” He sighed again. He threaded his fingers back through your hair, tilting your head up. He kissed your open mouth, quicker this time, more heat behind it. He licked into you while he rubbed his knee against you, swallowing every noise you made. When he parted you were both panting.
Restraint was something Kyle was never really good at. He could follow orders fine, as long as they came from someone else. He could rarely ever listen to himself. He wanted to go slow. As slow as possible.
He slid his hands down to your pants and unbuttoned them.
There was a flash of something across your features. Your breath stuttered and you froze for a heartbeat, your eyes snapping down to the big scarred hand tugging down the zipper on your jeans. When they met his gaze again, your eyes were wider. Just a fraction. Enough for him to notice.
“S’it okay if I touch you here, sweetheart?” He murmured as his fingers slipped beneath the elastic band of your panties. He could feel how ridiculously high quality they were, the fabric smooth and soft under his rough fingertips.
You inhaled a shaky breath and nodded.
“Yeah?” His fingers pushed over your mound, brushing at the very top of your folds. He was going to say something else, something smooth to coax you further into a mess, but when he felt how wet you were he forgot how to form sentences. All he could get out was a breathy, “Jesus Christ…”
He shouldn't have been surprised. He could tell how aroused you were by your scent. It only made sense for you to be as slick as you were. Still, it knocked something loose in his brain. Something he struggled to tighten.
You shuddered hard and rocked your hips again, grinding yourself against his knee, trying to get more of his fingers on you. You were wrecked. Almost as bad as he was.
He cocked his wrist and pushed his hand down the front of your pants to give you what you wanted. His fingers curved, cupping you fully, and he slid them up and down your slit, spreading your slickness around. It quickly coated the majority of his fingers.
You grabbed onto the waistband of your jeans and pushed them down to your mid thigh for him. He grunted in appreciation and rewarded you by pushing his middle finger inside you.
Your jaw dropped in a silent moan, your hands shooting behind you to grab onto the edge of his table.
Kyle managed a ghost of a grin at your response, and angled his wrist again, pushing his finger in deeper. You were so wet and tight, so hot around his finger, he found it hard to breathe properly. He didn't even realize he was breathing through his mouth until he had to lick his lips. Even then he didn't bother trying to correct it.
“Feel good?” He breathed, eyes flickering over your face to memorize the expression on it. He slowly withdrew his finger before plunging back in knuckle deep just as slowly.
“Uh-huh.” You nodded quickly, your eyes fluttering shut, your head rolling back.
He let out a shaky breath and looked down at his hand. Your panties were white, lace around the elastic band around your hips, a thinner strip around the leg holes. He cursed at the sight, his own hips twitching forward, brushing against your thigh.
It was getting hard to stand. His knees felt weak at the image in front of him, and he could see the way your thighs were already starting to shake around his hand.
“Come here.” He whispered, glancing over his shoulder at the chair behind him. He walked backwards towards it, looking back to you as he guided you back with him, his finger still slowly pumping inside you. You grabbed onto his shoulders to keep yourself upright and followed, taking short little steps, careful not to let his finger slip out.
Kyle thought that was impossible with the way you were squeezing him.
He sat down on the chair and pulled you into his lap. You immediately relaxed into him, your thighs spreading around his waist, allowing his finger to go deeper. You whined when he pulled it out, rocking your hips forward in protest.
“Shh. I've got you.” He shushed you gently as he hooked his fingers in your panties to pull them to the side. He pressed his finger back inside you, sinking in deep, and released his hold on the fabric, letting it hug the side of his hand. He pressed his thumb on your clit over the fabric and rolled a feather-light circle into it, drawing a whimper from you.
“There.” He sighed, resting his back against the back of the chair behind him, legs spread wide. “How's that?”
You nodded and hummed, the sound uneven in your throat. “Mmhmm-”
He nodded with you and curled his finger.
The way you reacted had his hips bucking up against you. Your hands landed on his chest, fingers curling around the fabric of his jacket, to keep yourself from falling flat on top of him. You moaned unabashedly and rocked your hips forwards once, your eyes falling shut again.
“Fuck, yeah?” He panted.
“Mmm-yeah!” You were practically drooling. He curled his finger again, more force behind it, watching you fall apart on top of him from such little movement. Your hips rolled forward on their own, once, twice, and didn't stop. You fucked yourself on his finger, your control lost.
Kyle groaned and curled his finger faster. He kept circling your clit with his thumb, but your movements made it slip more than once. He didn't care. It was the most beautiful thing he'd ever seen.
“That's it, sweetheart.” He rasped. “Use me.”
You choked on a moan and continued doing exactly that, grinding in his lap, each roll of your hips dragging against his painfully hard cock. He failed to bite back a particularly rough groan, his free hand landing on your hip. He gripped you tight and aided your movements, pulling you back and forth along his length beneath his jeans. You were dripping down between the creases of his fingers, dampening the crotch of his pants. The sight made him stop what he was doing to fumble his belt open.
He tried to keep his finger moving while he unbuckled his belt, but when he pushed the metal pin back through the hole in the leather, you whined some nonsensical complaint. Your hips jerked forward impatiently.
“Hold on, baby.” His voice struggled to stay even as he pulled the belt through the buckle. His fingers trembled as he tried to unbutton his jeans. “Goddamnit!” He cursed under his breath, pausing to grab your hip again and continue jerking you over his cock.
Kyle Crane had never been this worked up. Not just over a girl, but in general. He felt like he did the day he escaped the lab, right when he injected himself with adrenaline. His heart was racing so hard he could hear it in his ears. It was deafening. His palms were sweating, his body felt clammy, his mouth dry and watering at the same time.
You reached down and gave mercy, unbuttoning his jeans and pulling down the zipper. You tried to tug them down and failed, the angle too awkward, his body too heavy.
It was enough for him to lift his hips straight off the chair, tugging them down himself with one hand. He sat back down and yanked your body forward until you dragged right over his cock over his boxers.
He groaned loud and long, letting his head roll back against the cave wall. He jerked his hips up hard, grinding his cock against your ass, his pelvis pressing his hand tighter against you, his finger deeper up in you. You moaned with him and clutched onto his jacket again.
You were close, he could feel it in the way your walls clenched impossibly tighter around his finger. He curled it faster, harder, his eyes locked on your face as he focused on making you come as quickly as possible.
For a heartbeat, he felt the words come out of him effortlessly. Like riding a bike. He didn't even need to think, his body just spoke to you, saying exactly what it knew you needed to hear.
“Don’t stop.” He panted, helping you fuck yourself on his finger as he curled it relentlessly. “Don't stop, baby. Let me see it.”
Your jaw dropped again and you trembled hard, your body practically vibrating on top of him, your hands uselessly fisting his jacket as you moved your hips in greedy rolls. You had no coordination anymore. Kyle didn't care. He encouraged it. He wanted to see more of it.
“Come on baby. Give it to me. I know you're right there.” He urged in that low tone he knew you loved. “Come on, girl. Come on.”
Your upper body collapsed against him as you came with a broken moan. Kyle quickly threaded his fingers through your hair and pulled your head to the side on his chest, not wanting to miss the look on your face when you came. He looked down at you, cursing under his breath at the sight of you trying to keep your eyes open long enough to meet his gaze.
“Fuck, yes. Just like that, just like that, baby.” The words tumbled out rushed and breathy. He curled his finger harder, desperately trying to draw it out longer, to draw more pleasure. He wanted to see every second of it.
You choked on a moan, your eyes fluttering shut. You'd tried so hard to keep them open for him. That alone had him throbbing against your ass through his boxers.
“That's my girl.” He breathed, softer as your movements slowed. “Let it all out. Give me every bit of it.”
You gave one last weak roll, grinding his finger deeper before you went limp in his lap. Your hands slipped down his chest, landing with a soft thump on his waist. You were panting hard, damn near concerning Kyle as the last aftershocks pulsed through you.
He was so hard it hurt. When he finally pulled his hand out from between your legs, the back of his hand dragged over his length and he hissed. He brought his fingers to his mouth and inhaled, not giving a shit how perverted he had become. The old Crane would have raised a brow. Smelling pussy on his fingers and getting off on it? When there was a pussy right in his lap he could be fucking instead? A bit much.
Kyle didn't care. You smelled better than anything he'd ever smelled before. He let out a quick, shuddery exhale, running his tongue over his finger and down the back of his hand where you'd dripped down to his wrist.
You were still trembling against his chest when he reached down between you to palm his cock over the fabric. He didn't mind. It was proof he'd done a good job.
He had all night with you. He could wait for you to recover. In the meantime, he wrapped his arms around your waist and stood. You clung to him as he walked himself back to the bed a few feet away, moaning softly when he sat down on the edge of it. He scooted back, one arm wrapped around your waist, the other planting on the mattress as he moved back until he could lean against the cave wall.
You shifted forward and buried your face in his neck, planting a clumsy kiss to his jaw.
“Good girl.” He sighed, giving his cock a gentle squeeze. He groaned. He used his free hand to tug you along his length. You could feel every inch of him now without his hand as a barrier between your core and his cock. He was thick, the heat bleeding through the two layers of fabric. He throbbed against you, his tip dragging under your sensitive clit on each pass. “Fuck. You feel that?”
You moaned weakly against his chest and nodded, rocking your hips forward, applying more pressure. The sound Kyle let out was filthy- it should have embarrassed him. It was loud and raw and completely unfiltered and too much for dry humping.
He finally found his voice again. “You feel what you've been doing to me the last month? Every fucking night. S’all for you.”
His words had an obvious effect on you. You planted your hands on his chest again and pushed yourself up, sitting back fully on his dick. It drew a long grunt from behind clenched teeth and he rocked up to meet you. You had that same look in your eyes you had when he had you pressed up against his crafting bench.
Silently pleading for more. You didn't want to say it. Kyle wanted you to, though, he wanted you to say it badly. He was going to make you.
“Yeah.” He continued, dragging the moment out. “S’what you've been missing. Would've given it to you whenever… wherever. Been ready for you for thirty six fucking days.”
You whimpered, grinding against him in a wordless plea.
He clenched his jaw harder, and forced himself to wait a few more seconds. “You could've had this the day we fucking met. All you had to do was ask, baby. You could've asked me to fuck you in front of the whole goddamn cave and I would've.”
You thought he was exaggerating. He wasn't. It would've taken the Baron's entire army to pull him out of you if you asked him to fuck you that day, or any day since. His words were quickly unraveling you again, your fingers shook as they started unbuttoning and unzipping the layered jackets over his chest, still unconsciously grinding on him.
Kyle leaned up, helping you take his green jacket off. He stopped you before you could go for the second, pressing an open-mouthed kiss to the side of your jaw. “You want me to fuck you now, sweetheart?” He asked, his voice soft and sweet.
You nodded quickly, your cheek brushing against his thick beard.
“Yeah?” He continued, voice rising in pitch, still sickly sweet. “Want me to stick my dick in you?”
“Please.” Your first coherent word in several minutes, even if it trembled. “Yes, please, Kyle.”
Kyle. Not Crane. Kyle. Someone calling him by his first name like that was rare. Not only was it rare, but having a beautiful girl say his name in that needy, completely submissive and feminine tone?
His eyes slammed shut and he groaned again, raw and unfiltered against the side of your throat. He rocked up against you. “Fuck.”
His reaction stirred something in you. Raw desperation you'd never felt before. You'd never surrendered yourself like this to a man before, you'd never put your entire being in a man's hands like you did now.
You leaned forward again and peppered a rushed line of kisses along the side of his neck. “Please, Kyle, I want you so bad. It hurts.”
“Fuck.” He growled, his cock twitching hard. “Want me to take care of that ache you got?”
“Y- yeah.”
“Yeah? S’that right?”
You nodded in the crook of his neck, mouthing at the skin there. “Please- please? Please take care of it, Kyle, pl-please, please-”
“Shh, baby. Don't worry. I've got you.” Kyle crooned, something else he'd never done before meeting you. He nudged your head back with his nose, planting open-mouthed kisses along the column of your throat. He slid you back just enough to reach his cock. “Gonna make it so good for you. Gonna give it to you so good.”
He was slipping his hand under his waistband when Aiden's voice called out from down the hall, clearly thoroughly fucked up from whatever he'd been drinking or taking.
You tensed up and started to slide a leg off of him, automatically reaching for a nearby blanket. Kyle grabbed your thigh with one hand, still stroking himself with the other, and pulled you back down.
“Crane, you in there?” Aiden called again, closer this time. “There's a lady on the radio from the Monastery, says she wants to talk to you, Benson or Benny-” he was slurring.
Your heart dropped.
“Not now.” Kyle called out in a tone so firm it made you flinch. He'd been using that soft, sweet talk on you for the last half hour you had almost forgotten how imposing he could sound.
“She said it was important-” he was right outside the tarp. Kyle could feel your heart racing against his chest as you tried to slink flat like you could will the two of you to disappear. “Wanted you to come see something.”
“No.” You whimpered, your thighs squeezing around his waist like you could make him stay. “Kyle, please don't.”
Both of you knew Olivia saying something was important meant exactly that. Whatever it was had to be time sensitive for her to call in this late and ask for his presence. She'd even called Aiden. Kyle's own radio laid on his table, turned off for this exact reason.
That importance paled in comparison to you on top of him begging him to stay and fuck you. It wasn't even a hard decision to make. He didn't even think about it, didn't need to. Olivia would have to make it wait.
“Handle it yourself or tell her I'll see her in the morning. I'm occupied.” Kyle answered simply, his hand stroking up the side of your thigh, his grip on it loosened now.
“It sounded pretty urgent-”
Kyle sighed, turning his head to press a kiss to the side of your temple. He could feel the way you were practically shaking at the threat of not being able to finish what he'd started. “Caldwell, whatever it is, it can wait until tomorrow. I'm not available.”
Aiden didn't immediately move away, his shadow shifting behind the tarp.
“Don't make me get up.” Kyle added. That was more than enough. The wasted younger man brought the radio back up to his mouth and said something over it you couldn't understand, walking away. Kyle didn't know why Aiden cared so much. He looked like he was seconds away from killing her when he ran into her after Kyle killed the Baron. Lydia had to threaten to lay him out with her abilities when he charged at the scientist. Aiden reacted worse to betrayals than Kyle did.
You immediately melted against him, giving him grateful little kisses along the sharp line of his jaw. You rushed to pull his second jacket off, and he leaned up off the wall to help you.
His cock was still painfully hard beneath you. It hadn't softened so much as a fraction in the uncomfortable thirty seconds Aiden had interrupted, it was still throbbing against you through both of your damp layers. He rocked his hips up before grabbing the hem of his T-shirt, tugging it up and over his head, the washer hanging around his neck thumping against his chest in the process. He tossed the shirt haphazardly onto the floor somewhere, not bothering to look where it landed. He couldn't take his eyes off of you.
You'd sat up on your knees to tug your panties off. Kyle waited before you were done, wanting to witness every move you made, before he started tugging his jeans down further. He watched you help; unlacing his boots for him, pulling them off, letting them thump down onto the floor beside the bed. You even grabbed onto his pants legs and tugged them down while he pulled his legs free.
He didn't bother with his boxers. You were already climbing back in his lap before he had time to take them off. He just hooked his thumbs in the waistband and pushed down until his cock sprang free. It smacked against his stomach, bobbing once before he wrapped his hand around the base and gave himself a few slow strokes.
When his eyes flicked up to your face he inhaled a ragged breath.
Your lips were barely parted again, your pupils blown black, your eyelids heavy and half-lidded as you looked down at his cock. Your expression was inarguably one of molten desire. He stroked himself just looking at your face, putting a little effort into making a show of it for you. He spit in his hand and slid his wet palm down the underside of his length, smearing it over him. He wrapped his hand back around himself at the base and tugged upwards, twisting his wrist at the tip.
His other hand joined in, cupping his balls, pressing them tight against himself as he gave another slow stroke. His hand paused at his tip again and he gripped it in his palm, massaging it for a few seconds before he slid back down to the base.
“Come here.” He murmured, lifting his knee slightly so you had no choice but to scoot further into his lap. “Touch me if you want, sweetheart.”
You reached out and he pulled his hand off of him, grabbing the back of yours. He tilted your palm up and brought it up to his mouth where he spit in it, less aggressive than the way he'd spat into his own hand. He pulled your hand back down and guided you to curl your fingers around his length.
The sight took his breath away.
Kyle Crane knew he was a big man. Even before the virus and the experiments he was a big man. He was a lot bigger now. Not just his physique, but his cock, too. And your hand made it look even bigger, with your thinner, shorter fingers. Your clear coat of nail polish reflected the dim purple glow of UV and the warmer amber hue from the lantern on his desk.
He loved that you took the time to do something as trivial as painting your nails, doing your makeup every morning, repeatedly using lip balm throughout the day. You made looking so beautiful look like art. Even now, staring down at his cock in your hand, you were still the picture of feminine beauty. You weren't even trying.
You gave an experimental stroke, your eyes flicking up to watch him. You let out a shaky breath at the look on his face.
He gave a reassuring nod, motivating you to keep going. You repeated the action, squeezing a little tighter near the base. He groaned and let his head thump back against the wall, lowering his eyes to keep them locked on you.
He couldn't let you go on for too long like this. Ever since you sat in his lap he'd been holding back his orgasm. He would surely come if you kept this up for more than a few strokes.
Still, he didn't want to rush it. He needed to see his cock in your mouth before he died. He might not get another chance with you like this.
“Squeeze right here.” He murmured, guiding your hand back down to the base. When you did as he said he hissed through his teeth, hips bucking up into your fist. “Fuck, yeah. Perfect. Keep going just like that.”
You nodded mostly to yourself and licked your lips, your eyes locked on his dick. You moved your other hand to the tip and massaged it like you'd seen him do, wrapping your fingers around it, rubbing it against your palm.
It felt like the air had been punched from him. He sucked in a breath, rocking up again as you massaged the tip and squeezed the base. His hand slid up your bare shoulder, giving a little squeeze before he moved to caress the back of your head. He pulled, just barely.
“C’mere.” He breathed. “Taste it. Just for a second.”
You glanced up at him for a second and nodded before shifting your hips back, settling against the bottom of his thigh. He grunted when he felt your wet heat sinking down on his leg, and he couldn't help but flex the muscle, earning a quiet whimper from you as you lowered your head.
When he felt your warm breath against his tip he shuddered under you. He threaded his fingers through your hair again and gripped a handful of it, gentle and guiding, mostly just so he could touch some part of you.
“Go on. Give it a little kiss.” He murmured, slowly lifting his hips, bringing the tip closer to your mouth. He choked on a groan when you leaned down and pressed your lips against him, kissing the head, your tongue poking out to drag the tip through his slit. You kissed the side of his head next, then the underside, your tongue stopping to massage that little velvety patch right under the tip.
Kyle cursed under his breath. His fingers unconsciously tightened in your hair. “That's it.”
When you took the tip in your mouth, he had to bite into his fist to keep himself from coming right then and there. He groaned again, louder than the last one, and rocked his hips up, pushing just a centimeter deeper past your lips.
When you swirled your tongue around him he had to pull you off. He gasped, his abdomen tensing hard, and pulled your head back gently but immediately.
“Did I hurt you?” You rushed, your eyes wide and panicked. It broke his heart.
“No, no, baby.” He panted. “You're perfect. Too perfect. Jus’ need a second.”
You looked confused for a moment, and then you processed his words and the confusion faded to pride. You grinned up at him and nodded, straightening up, taking your hands off him.
He slid his hands down to your sides and gave them a squeeze before he moved you, lifting and turning you until your head rested against his pillow. He felt a flash of embarrassment at the shitty quality of it- limp and flat, no better than a folded jacket, before he looked down at your bare body.
He sat up and climbed over you, lowering himself down onto his elbows. You looked so delicate like this, caged under him, your soft skin and gentle curves looking out of place under his jagged, scarred body. Something about that made his cock twitch as he settled between your spread thighs.
He dropped his head and kissed you once, savoring the way you instantly opened your mouth for him before he kissed down to your neck. He lingered on your pulse point, sucking and nipping the skin while you whined, before pulling back to look at it. He hadn't even meant to mark you like that, but a deep purple spot in the shape of his mouth was blooming right where your pulse pounded.
That was a lie. He meant to do that. He just prayed you wouldn't get upset with him about it.
He kissed down your chest, stopping at your nipples to give them a similar treatment. Your thighs clenched around him, your hips rocking up in search of friction they didn't get. You whined in frustration but he took his time, swirling his tongue around your nipple before switching to the other. He pinched one between his fingers as he nipped one, drawing out sharp gasps and mewls that made him groan in the back of his throat.
When he started kissing down your stomach your thighs clenched like you were trying to stop him. He looked up at you, pressing an open-mouthed kiss to your navel, letting the tip of his tongue dip in. The face you made had him grinding his cock into the mattress beneath him.
“Kyle-”
He pressed one more kiss below your belly button before lifting his head. “Yeah?”
“Please, I want you.” Your cheeks burned.
He let out a breath, closing his eyes for a second to recover from what he'd just heard. He opened them and found your face again. “I know. But I wanna taste you. You'll let me, won't you?”
You whimpered, shifting your thighs around his ribs. “I want you.”
“Fuck.” He rutted against the mattress again like an animal before he forced his hips to still. “Shh, relax. Just lemme taste it, baby.”
You swallowed hard before finally nodding.
He gave you a small smirk and continued sinking down your body. He spread your thighs a little wider for him, running his hands up the soft skin of your inner thighs as he drank in the sight of you.
“Jesus.” He breathed. You were beautiful everywhere. Your face, your body, your pussy. Wet, flushed, glistening. His. He leaned down and pressed a slow, open-mouthed kiss to the skin above your clit, burying his nose in your hair and inhaling like he was huffing gasoline.
He groaned, his eyes fluttering shut. The concentrated smell of you made him feel drunk beyond belief. He fucked himself against the mattress and dragged the tip of his tongue down through your folds. The taste of you was indescribable. Sweet, heady, utterly beautiful in a way only a woman could taste. Only you could taste.
A rough sound rumbled deep in his chest and he licked back up, stopping to swirl his tongue around your clit. Your hips twitched up and you gasped, still sensitive from your first orgasm.
“Goddamnit, sweetheart.” He breathed against your slick folds. “You're perfect. Fuckin’ perfect. So fuckin’ perfect.” He didn't hesitate to stick his tongue back out and drag it back through your folds. Up to your clit, swirl around it, down to your entrance for the same treatment. He pushed his tongue as deep as he could manage, nosing your clit as he licked inside you.
You moaned. Loud. Your hips jerked up and he clamped a hand on them, keeping them in place while his other held your thigh spread and open for him.
He didn't rush. He licked into you with exploratory strokes, savoring each inch of your pussy like he had all the time in the world. He held your hips down hard while he worked so he could focus. He wrapped his lips around your clit and sucked, his eyes flicking up to your face to watch every little micro-expression.
He loved everything about you. He loved the way you couldn't keep your eyes open or your hips still. He loved the way you tried so hard to keep quiet. The way you tossed your head side to side when he stuck his finger back inside you and pumped it. The way your back arched off the bed when he curled it. The way you trembled when he sucked your clit harder.
“Kyle, Kyle, oh-!” You cried out, digging your nails into his scalp, drawing a groan from his lips closed around your clit.
“Fuck, yeah. Yeah.” He panted, swirling his tongue. The wet sounds from his mouth and your slick heat made his cock throb under him, pressed tight between his body and the sheets. He rocked his hips as he watched your jaw drop. “Do it. Come on.”
You nodded quickly to nothing in particular as that tight rope inside you snapped. You slapped your hand over your mouth to muffle your cry, the nails of your other hand sinking into his scalp. You rocked your hips and he let you. He stuck his tongue out and kept it flat and tense for you to simply grind your pussy against. You were bucking too hard for him to do anything fancy.
The act of you practically humping against his tongue nearly made him come right then and there. For a second he wished he had let himself come earlier so he could be certain he'd last long enough to fuck you the way you deserved to get fucked.
Only when you had slowed to a lazy grind did Kyle pull his cramped tongue back in his mouth. He pressed a few quick kisses to the mess he'd made of your pussy, grinning against you to himself when you whimpered at the oversensitivity.
He kissed back up your body, rubbing one hand over your breast as he sucked and nipped at your neck. “God.” He breathed against your throat, shifting to the other side of your neck to kiss there. He squeezed your breast with one hand and pushed the other through your hair. “Can't get enough of you.”
He understood it was too much. He knew it was probably incredibly unhealthy, the way he was about you. He knew it was a bad idea, given his history with women after enlisting. He knew he was putting you in danger.
But he also knew he could protect you from that danger if you'd let him. He knew he'd set this whole filthy world ablaze to keep you warm. He knew that didn't make him Superman. Superman wasn't selfish.
In his case. the needs of you outweigh the needs of the many.
And now, you needed him to fuck you.
He wrapped an arm under your back and pulled you up, turning you both until he was leaning against the cave wall with you in his lap again.
You made a noise in the back of your throat, maybe a complaint. You were like jelly in his arms, slumping against his chest. He didn't mind. He could hold you. He kept one arm wrapped around your waist, the other banding up your spine to keep you pressed tight against his chest. His hand cupped the back of your head, keeping your face in the crook of his neck as he started sliding you back and forth on his cock.
You gasped against his neck, the sound sharp. He shuddered and pulled your hair away from your ear to press a quick kiss there.
“So wet.” He murmured under his breath, mostly to himself, as he slid your pussy back and forth over his swollen length. “Lift up a little.”
You obeyed, sitting up on your wobbly knees. He slipped his hand between your bodies and held himself up with a hand around the base, looking down to guide himself to your entrance. He slid the tip from your clit down your slit and back up a few times, gathering your wetness on him before he tapped your ass with his free hand.
“Okay. Slow.” He breathed. His heart was racing so fast and so hard it hurt. He couldn't take his eyes away as he watched you slowly lower your hips down.
His tip immediately slid back up your slit. He grunted, irritated, and gripped himself tighter while you reset your position.
You tried again, even slower, reaching down to try and help hold his tip in place as you pressed down. You hissed through your teeth when he was met with too much resistance.
“Shh, relax for me.” He urged, but he was just as impatient as you. You were soaked, that wasn't the problem. You were just so fucking tight, and he was so fucking thick. He pushed his hips up as you pressed down again. He felt you open up for him just a little, stretching that tight ring of muscles around his tip.
At this point all he had to do was thrust up into you, or pull you down on him. But he looked up and saw the way you were wincing and stopped himself. He didn't move a muscle, freezing under you despite the way his entire body trembled with desire.
You took your time lowering yourself down. You kept sucking in these sharp little breaths as he stretched you more and more, your brows knitted tightly together, your upper lip twitching just slightly from the burn. You choked on a whimper when the tip popped through, your body locking up, freezing you into place.
“Shit… breathe, baby. Just breathe.” He stroked your thigh, his hand shaking from restraint on your skin. His heart ached when you let out a long whine. “I know, I know. I'm sorry.”
“No.” You shook your head and offered a quick, apologetic kiss to his lips, taking in another half inch. “It's okay. S’jus’ been a- a while.”
A while. What did that mean to you? He huffed out a strained breath of amusement. “Yeah? Me fucking too.” A while for him was an understatement. The Baron had him for thirteen years. He hadn't been with a woman since before Harran, and that was…
A really, really long time ago.
Eventually you got down about halfway. At that point your legs were threatening to give out, so Kyle grabbed onto your hips with both hands and held you up, holding your full weight, slowly dragging you down the rest of the way.
“Jesus Christ, sweetheart… you feel… unbelievable.” He choked as he rocked his hips gently, fucking just a little more into you.
He lost his breath just watching your face as you struggled to take him. Part of him felt pained for you, the other part- the part the Baron carved into him- groaned at the sight. It was beyond a confidence boost.
“You okay?” He breathed out as he pulled you down another inch.
You nodded. Barely.
“Yeah?” He continued, glancing between your face and his cock disappearing into you. When you nodded he rocked his hips just slightly, fucking another inch into you before pulling back down.
You rolled your hips in response, signaling for him to keep going. He grunted behind clenched teeth and pulled you down the last bit. He felt his tip press against your cervix as your ass came in contact with his pelvis. He throbbed inside you, grinding up without even meaning to.
The feeling of you wrapped around him, squeezing the life out of him, made his head spin. His fingertips dug into the skin of your thighs as he struggled not to buck up against you like a rabid animal.
You let yourself slump forwards again, your forehead resting against his shoulder as a high whine sounded in your throat. “Fuck.”
He shuddered and let his arm rest vertically up your spine again, his hand cupping the back of your neck. “God, baby. Feel so fucking good.”
You moaned into his neck at the praise, your hips twitching forward in response, grinding his tip against your cervix in a way that had you moaning again.
He longed to hear more of that. Feel more of that. Knowing that something as simple as praising you would get him that made it easier.
“Never felt anything like you.” He murmured, pressing a chaste kiss to your temple. “Never.”
You clenched around him and kissed the crook of his neck. “More.” Another kiss, quicker. “More. Please.”
He let out a breath. “Yeah? You want more?”
You nodded.
He gripped your hips tighter and lifted you about three inches up and held you there. He braced his feet on the mattress and lifted his hips, sliding those three inches back into you before drawing back nice and slow. You gripped onto his biceps as he fucked up into you like that, three inches out, three inches back up, slow and deep and purposeful.
The noises you made in his neck made him move a little quicker. He held you suspended above him and sped up his thrusts, keeping them gentle but intense, drawing out slightly louder moans each time he buried himself to the hilt.
He pulled you back down tight on his lap and held you there, moving his hips in deep circles that ground his tip against a spot inside you that had you trembling on top of him.
“There?” He rasped, repeating the movement with more force behind it. You clenched around him hard in response, rolling your hips forward in search of more of it. He groaned, tilting his head back against the wall and pulled you down harder, circling his hips deeper. “Yeah? Right there?”
You nodded quickly. “Yeah. Uh-huh.”
“Fuck.” He shuddered. He fucked like that for a while, holding you tight in his lap, moving his hips in wide circles, digging his cock around deep inside you in search of every single spot that made you clench.
He pulled you out from his neck to kiss you suddenly, his tongue immediately slipping past your parted lips. He licked inside your mouth, fucking you with his tongue as he started moving his hips in long rolls. You moved against him, easily matching his exact rhythm in a way that had both of you moaning.
One arm wrapped around your back, holding you flush against his chest, while the other stayed wrapped around your hips to guide your body over his.
When he lifted you again and started fucking you harder, you completely lost it. You panted hot and heavy against his neck, a broken whimper sounding deep in your throat each time he thrusted up. You were clenching around him so tight he had to take a second to compose himself before resuming, gripping your waist just as tight as you were gripping him.
“Kyle-” you choked on a moan, “I'm- fuck, please?”
“Please what?” He panted, snapping his hips faster, chasing your tight heat. You just cried out in response, begging again. “What do you need, baby? Tell me. I'll give you anything.”
“The thing- do the thing again.” You pleaded. You pushed down on him, trying to fall flush in his lap again, but he didn't budge until he understood what you meant. He didn't even register the fact you were struggling against him until you cried out another weak ‘please!’.
He pulled you down and held you tightly in place while he circled his hips again. At some point you took over and he fell still, letting you set the pace, watching you grind your hips in quick, jerky circles.
“F-fuck-” he choked on a groan. “There you go. You got it, sweetheart. Use me.”
Something about you taking control like that, using his cock to get yourself off while he just laid there had him fighting off his orgasm again. He pressed the side of his head against your temple and focused on his breathing, gripping onto your thighs like he was scared you'd be ripped away from him if he didn't.
You bit into his neck to stifle your moan when you came around him.
It was blinding. He sucked in a gasp as you clenched down hard, your hips bucking thoughtlessly, chasing your own pleasure. He could feel your walls pulsing around him. Trying to milk him before he even came. The thought had him choking on another gasp and coming inside you before he could stop himself.
He didn't even process doing it. He just rutted up into you with animalistic movements, holding you down as tight as possible, keeping his tip flush with your cervix as he emptied himself deep inside. His hips gave shallow thrusts, fucking his cum as high as it would go before he even finished coming.
Kyle didn't even think about pulling out. It wasn't a possibility. Not now, not before. Your fate was sealed the second you let him lead you into his room. You'd be going to sleep pumped full of him, and not even Lydia with her psychic abilities could change that.
He groaned loud and raw against the side of your head. You were still milking him. When you realized he'd come inside you you'd stiffened, moving to pull your head out of his neck, but he just gripped you tighter and fucked his cum deeper.
He didn't stop. He didn't even soften. The second he was able to think again, Kyle kept one arm around your back and the other under your ass, holding you tightly against him as he sat up. He moved you effortlessly, turning and laying you down on your back with your head on his pillow again.
“Fuck. Sorry, baby.” He muttered under his breath as he shifted between your thighs. He hadn't pulled out in the move, not even an inch, staying buried deep inside you as the last few spurts left his cock.
“S’okay.” Your voice trembled from the intensity of your own orgasm.
He shook his head, but he didn't stop lifting your thighs to wrap around his waist. It wasn't okay. But, fuck… he found it hard to give a shit when you were looking up at him like you loved him. The thought made his cock pulse inside you and he rocked it deeper.
“Never came that hard before.” He admitted breathlessly. “And- I'm still-” he rocked his hips again, making you feel exactly how hard he still was, how hard he was throbbing for you. “Feel it? That's all you. Fuck.”
You mewled helplessly and nodded, clenching around him at his words and the way he was pushing his cum deeper into you.
You gasped, hands flying to his biceps. “Shit-”
He exhaled a rough breath and lowered himself down on his elbows, caging you in again, and kissed you. He swallowed your groan when he rocked harder. He slid his tongue around yours before pulling back to plant a messy kiss on your jaw. “Fuck.”
“Kyle-” you huffed, shifting under him. “It's- a lot-”
“Yeah. I know.” He groaned and kissed the side of your throat. “You're doing so good, though. So good for me. Gonna keep being this good?”
You gave a soft little sigh at his words and nodded, his beard scraping against your neck. “Yeah. Wanna be good for you.”
He growled in approval and rolled his hips again. “You are. So good, baby. Just take it.”
You nodded again.
He kissed the corner of your mouth and lifted himself back onto his elbows. He kept rocking into you like that, slow and heavy and intense, watching the way your tense face slowly melted into something more pleasurable. Only then did he start putting more force into his movements, his tip pushing deep against your cervix again.
You pressed your hand down firm on your stomach. The sight made him huff out a heavy breath. “You feel me all the way up there?”
Your breath hitched and you shivered under him. “Uh-huh…”
He groaned, speeding up, the sound of skin on skin growing louder in the small cave chamber. His eyes darted to the tarp- he could still see the dim glow of the campfire down the tunnel, and distant UV lights. With his sensitive hearing he could pick up the faint sounds of people talking in the main chamber. No one was nearby. Even if they were, Kyle didn't care. Let them hear. He wanted them to hear. Especially Aiden.
The thought of Caldwell made him clench his jaw and look back down at you. He remembered the shameless way the younger man had flirted with you, and the way you'd seemed to be receptive to it. He remembered the way you blushed and smiled when Aiden put his hand on your waist while you cleaned a bullet graze on his bicep.
Fuck. Why was that bothering him now? He was the one balls deep inside you, not Aiden. He was the one you had come three times for. Not Aiden. Kyle was the one you were looking up at like you loved him. Kyle's cock was the one you were clenching your pussy around. It was his cum and his cock filling you.
He pushed his hips flush and circled them the way you liked, drawing out a gasp and a string of incoherent babbling. He stayed there, grinding hard, eyes locked on your face beneath his. His pelvis ground against your clit, his unruly pubes providing you with a texture that was too much. You twisted under him, squeezing your eyes shut tight, your hips instinctively trying to shift away from him.
“Kyle- f-fuck- gentle.” You gasped, your thighs shaking around his waist.
He immediately eased the pressure, relaxing his muscles a bit and putting less force into his grinding. He didn't stop. “Too much?” He asked, his voice rough and strained.
“Little bit.” You panted, your grip on his biceps loosening slightly.
“Okay. I've got you.” He dipped down and pressed an apologetic kiss to your lips before giving one to your jaw. “Still feel good, though?”
You let out a shaky breath and nodded. “Y-yeah. Uh-huh. Don't stop.”
He laughed, the sound rough and airy. “Don't worry about that. Just tell me what you need.”
You swallowed, your eyes fluttering back open to look up at him. “Like this… just for a minute.” He noticed the way you were able to hold his gaze for a solid five seconds before you looked away, a massive improvement that made him thrust a little faster without meaning to.
He nodded.
He fucked you like that for a minute; his thrusts slow, shallow, gentle, barely pulling out an inch before pushing back in and grinding. His stamina was starting to surprise him. He was shaking, but not from exertion. His arms were trembling from the sheer ecstasy coursing through him. It was almost overwhelming. He'd never felt anything like you before.
When your thighs stopped trembling and your body started relaxing more, Kyle started drawing back a little more before pushing back in. He watched your face, memorizing the way your lips trembled and your eyes fluttered when he hit that spot you loved.
He could fuck you like this for hours. It was halfway soothing, even to him. He didn't even realize that he hadn't thought about the Baron or Harran since you nodded at him in front of the fire out there.
Maybe he was wrong.
Maybe he couldn't fuck you like this for hours.
After a while it was getting harder to hold himself back. You were still so tight, so slick around him, his instincts were screaming at him to start really fucking you. He needed to pull all the way out and slam back in balls deep. He needed it. He fucking needed it.
“Can I go a little faster?” He murmured, giving an experimental faster thrust.
Your hips rocked up to meet it, taking him deeper in the process. You didn't even need to open your mouth and answer him after doing that, but you did. “Please.”
A rough breath of relief punched from his lungs and he shifted. He leaned up on his knees and grabbed your thighs, hooking his arms under the bends of your knees, and pushed them down. He nearly folded you in half, letting his body weight slowly press your legs back until his chest came to rest against the backs of your thighs. Your knees brushed against your shoulders, ripping a strained grunt from your lips.
Kyle groaned, the sound raw and animalistic in his chest. “Fuuuck.”
He'd opened you up so deep. You felt impossibly tighter with your body folded like this, your hips tilted up for him, his heavy form pinning you immobile.
You choked on a word he couldn't understand.
“This okay?” His voice shook. He prayed you wouldn't say no, grinding his tip deep inside you as if that would magically make you say yes.
“Uh-huh!” You nodded, cheeks flushed bright pink.
He grinned slightly, glancing down at where his cock had fully disappeared between your legs before he looked back up at your face beneath his. “Uh-huh?” He repeated, almost sounding mocking.
You nodded again, quicker. “F-fuck- s’deep.”
He huffed a rough laugh and kissed your knee. “I know. You're taking it like you were made for it.”
Your whimper caught in your throat and you clenched around him, wiping the grin from his lips and pulling a groan from them instead.
“Yeah? You like hearing that?” He asked as he rocked his hips a little faster.
“Yeah.” You looked almost bashful then, something Kyle never thought he'd see on you. “Can you say it again?”
“You were made for me, baby. Taking my cock so fucking good.” He whispered in a low voice, fully sheathing and grinding hard.
You gasped, reaching up to grab onto his shoulders. He gave a particularly rough thrust, jolting your body and drawing a broken cry from you. It didn't sound pained- the exact opposite. Kyle's restraint started snapping when he heard it.
He tried to hold on for a little longer. Keep fucking you nice and slow like you liked. But, fuck. Each time he buried deep you'd clench around him and tilt your hips up like you wanted more.
He could give you more. He could give you so much more.
He pulled back until only the tip remained, and snapped his hips down, his balls slapping against your ass. You yelped, the sound echoing in his room. He leaned onto one elbow and his hand flew to your mouth, quickly muffling the rest of your noises.
“They're gonna think I'm in here killing you, sweetheart.” He managed a short huff of a laugh, trembling as he pulled his hips back to repeat the action. Your yelp was a lot quieter behind his palm, which killed him. He wanted to hear every noise you made. He wanted them to hear every noise you made. But not if those noises sounded like he was genuinely in here ripping you apart.
You nodded behind his hand, your eyes wide and glassy. You were so overwhelmed a tear trickled out the side of your eye towards your temple. Your brows were knitted together and your nostrils flared hard.
The image shouldn't have excited him so much.
He leaned down and kissed away the tear, running the tip of his tongue up the path back to the corner of your eye, where he pressed another kiss, and slammed his hips forward.
Your entire body rocked against the bed as he repeated the action over and over. You moaned loud behind his palm, your eyes squeezing shut against the overwhelming sensation of all of him.
“Yeah, yeah. That's right. Take it.” He gritted out, gripping your thighs harder as he fucked into you faster. “Take my fucking cock.”
Your eyes rolled back at his vulgar words, a deep moan vibrating against his hand. You reached up and grabbed his wrist, tugging against his iron hold. He pulled his hand away and rested his weight back on two elbows, evenly distributing it in a way that allowed him to pull back further and thrust in faster.
You were unraveling fast. Your eyes rolled back but didn't fully close. Your jaw had dropped but no sound came out, you were barely able to breathe.
Kyle knew he was giving you too much. You were so much smaller than him, so much younger. Fuck, you were so much younger and you were still managing to take it. Something like pride flashed across his face as he fucked you faster.
“Shit, baby… yeah.” He panted, voice choppy from the force of his thrusts. “Just like that. So fucking good for me.”
You groaned deep at the praise and clenched around him, your pelvis angling a little higher, taking him deeper.
Fuck. You were so good it broke his heart. Now he felt like the one on the verge of tears.
“Good girl. God. Goddamnit.” He choked out. “My perfect fucking girl.”
You keened. He didn't bother covering your mouth. That was a clear sound of pleasure. A sound he knew Aiden heard with his matching enhanced hearing. Part of him reveled in it. Part of him hated that Caldwell even had the honor of hearing you like this.
It made him lose his last shred of restraint.
Kyle Crane had always fucked like an animal. Even before he was turned into one. He'd fuck girls until they couldn't walk from how hard they came. He'd last so long his cock felt raw, he could come over and over. You were the first girl he'd fucked since then. That should've scared him. He should've been worried- if not for him then for you.
Although, you were taking it so well. You were gasping in each breath, struggling and trembling, but you were still taking him, still holding onto his biceps and looking up at him with those big eyes, not a single ‘stop’ or ‘i can't’ leaving your lips.
It made his heart swell with something alarmingly similar to devotion.
Kyle leaned down, smashed his lips against your open mouth, and swallowed your cries when he pulled back and started fucking you the way his body screamed at him to; pulling back all the way, slamming back in so hard it knocked the breath from you and scooted your form up the mattress.
He didn't even try to talk. If there was one thing Kyle was good at, it was talking. Especially during sex. He knew girls loved men who would talk them through it. He knew you loved hearing him talk. You loved his voice.
Fucking you like this though, he couldn't talk you through it. The most he could give you were short, animalistic grunts, panting heavily as he jackhammered into you.
“Fuck!” You choked, your head rolling back as your back arched under him. “F-f-fuh-uh-uh-uh- fuck- I-”
Kyle growled, adjusting his grip on your thighs, pressing more of his weight onto you as he fucked you with fervor. “Do it.”
You whined, twisting your hips, trying to change the angle to somehow take less of him and get more friction on your clit at the same time. His pelvis slammed against it repeatedly, acting almost like some sort of brutal vibrator, and you froze in that position.
His heart felt like it was going to burst out of his fucking chest. He was sweating so much it was dripping down onto you from several different parts of him; his nose, his chin, his chest, covering you in more of him in every way possible.
“Breathe-” he tried talking you through it like he previously had done so well, but the feeling of you clenching around him like a vice, the image of you coming undone beneath him was all too much. “Breathe- fuck- I can't- just come, baby, come-”
Your jaw dropped and you let out this strained, almost primal groan, the sound coming from deep within your chest. It sounded like you could barely get it out, your orgasm so strong it reduced your noises to quiet, strangled vocalizations.
Kyle let out a similar groan, burying himself deep and grinding against you. He couldn't come, not yet, he needed just a little longer-
He held there as you pulsed and trembled, grinding deep, carrying you through your orgasm for the fourth time. You were beyond trembling. You were vibrating under him, choking on your own breathing, your teeth chattering so hard he could feel the vibrations.
“Shit.” He exhaled, trying to catch his breath in the moment of calm. “Sweetheart. Shit. You okay? Hey- look at me. You okay?”
You forced your eyes to focus on him and managed a jerky nod, the corners of your lips twitching up into a smile. “Uh-huh!” Your voice shook so bad it made him whine.
“You sure?” He loosened his grip on your thighs and lowered them, letting your legs fall limp on the mattress beside his knees.
You swallowed hard and hiccupped. “Nnmm-yeah.”
He cracked a crooked grin of endearment, shaking his head. “You gonna be okay if I keep going?” He didn't give you time to answer, he grabbed your ankle and lifted it- up over his head, turning your body with his onto your sides, careful to keep his cock buried inside as he moved you both.
The spooning position allowed you to go completely limp in front of him. He slipped his arm under your head, letting you use his bicep as a big pillow, and wrapped his other around your waist to pull you flush against his front.
He kissed your shoulder and swept your hair up and away from your sweaty skin, piling it on the pillow above his arm. He kissed the back of your neck and gave a lazy thrust, stirring his first load that had mixed with your own wetness inside you.
You made a content little moan and he sighed in relief.
Slow, gentle rolls of his hips, not just for your sake. He needed a moment to regain his composure and not have a fucking heart attack. He drew his cock a few inches out, then moved his hips in a mild, wave type motion, dragging his tip along your oversensitive walls.
“How's this?” He whispered, his breath warm over your ear as he pressed a soft kiss to the shell of it. “This better?”
You hummed, sounding almost sleepy, and nodded. Your hands settled on the forearm he had resting over your chest, holding onto him comfortably. “So good.”
He sighed, satisfied, and let his head rest on the pillow under him. He had his hand splayed over your heart, and he could feel your heart rate slowing from its original hummingbird-like pace. He kept up his easy rhythm, sliding his cock in and out like he had all the time in the world.
At some point his movements became less like thrusts and more like he was rocking you to sleep. He even closed his eyes to savor the gentle moment.
“God.” He murmured, kissing the back of your neck. “Been wanting you for so long. Just like this.”
You made a happy humming sound and tilted your head slightly, letting him nuzzle his cheek against yours as he subconsciously rubbed his scent over you. He didn't even know what he was doing. He just knew he wanted to, so he did.
“Kyle?”
He opened his eyes and lifted his head, looking down at the side of your face. “Yeah?”
The way you hesitated admittedly made him anxious. He rocked his hips a little deeper, like he could coax the question out of you instead of the more likely opposite effect.
“Do you really like me?” You asked, your voice quiet and breathy. There was a vulnerability in your tone, along with building heat at his movements. “Not just because I'm pretty?”
Kyle blinked down at you. His hips stilled for a few seconds before his cock throbbed impatiently, then resumed his lazy grinding. “Not just ‘cause you're pretty.” He murmured, kissing your temple. “Though fuck knows you are.”
He felt you push back against him at the compliment and he let out a heavy breath, pressing his hips forward tighter in response.
“I like you.” He continued. “More than I know what to do with.”
Kyle left out the part about him dreaming about your face for weeks after seeing it for the first time. He left out the part about how he saw your smile every time he closed his eyes. He left out how absolutely shallow he was and disgustingly obsessed he was with your beauty. You didn't need to know that. He liked more than just that now. You'd stopped being a pretty face a week after knowing you, and that was all that you needed to know.
His answer seemed to satiate you. You were smiling to yourself, your eyes closed again, your hips tilting to take him deeper.
He grunted in appreciation and gave a long, deep thrust, his hips slapping against your ass from the sudden force. You sucked in a breath of surprise, your fingers tightening around his forearm.
“Alright, sweetheart.” he breathed, his hand sliding down to grip your hip where he pulled you against him firmly. “Hold on to me.” He curled the arm he had under your neck, banding it over your chest so he could grab onto your shoulder facing up. His knee nudged your legs open and he slipped his thick thigh between them.
You tried, gripping onto the forearm over your collarbones, squeezing the leg between yours with your thighs. But when he started fucking you again, you quickly turned back into that dumb mess you were five minutes prior.
God, he could fuck you for hours. If you'd let him, he would. If you could take it, he would. But it had only been fifteen minutes and you were close to breaking. He wanted to make a joke about getting you some GSB so he could fuck you for longer, but you were squeezing him so tight he could barely breathe.
“Fuck.” He cursed under his breath. He reached lower and grabbed your thigh, yanking it up over his, opening you up deeper for him. “Fuck. I've got you.”
You whined, digging your nails deeper into his arm, incapable of speaking. He could feel you getting close again.
“I've got you, baby. Just take it for me.” He groaned, thrusting so hard your body jolted with each slap of his hips against your ass. “F-fuck. You're gonna make me come.” He panted in your ear, planting a breathy kiss to the skin behind it.
You groaned, tilting your head back until it hit his collarbones. “Kyle, oh, God- please don't-” you gasped, “fuck! Don't stop- don't stop please!”
He growled, his breathing coming in quicker and rougher at the sound of your voice like that. You either didn't notice how loud you were being, or you didn't care. Either way Kyle loved it. He loved how loud you were. Saying his name in that voice, in that sentence.
“D-don’t-” you choked on a moan, sounding downright pitiful, “-stop, Kyle, please- don't stop-”
“Sh-sh-sh,” he kissed your temple. “Not stopping. I'm here. Right here, baby. I've got you.” He tightened his grip around your chest and pushed, turning the two of you on the bed, hooking his leg between yours.
He pushed until you rolled onto your stomach. His body followed yours easily, his chest covering your back as he settled on top of you. He pushed your legs wide open and rolled his hips, driving his cock deeper inside you, darting in and out with a force that had you crying out into his pillow.
“That's it.” He gritted out behind your ear, hooking an arm under your waist to pull your hips up just enough. “Gonna keep giving you this cock until you can't take it anymore.”
You moaned into his pillow long and whiny, pushing your hips up against his pelvis in response. You mumbled something he couldn't hear and he grabbed a fistful of your hair, pulling up until he could tilt your head to the side.
It was just more begging. More begging through the gasps. The sweetest sound Kyle had ever heard.
“Fuck.” He groaned. “Listen to you. My good girl. Gonna come for me again?”
You had actual tears running down your cheeks. Kyle dipped his head low and pressed a trail of hot, open-mouthed kisses down your cheek, licking them off his lips. “I- fuck- trying-”
You were severely overstimulated. Your teeth were chattering again. The sight made his cock throb viciously inside you.
“Yeah?” He breathed, slamming his hips down harder. “Don't you wanna make me come, baby?”
You nodded vigorously.
“Then come for me one more time. One more.” He kissed the base of your jaw. “One more time. Then I'll give you everything. Fuuuck, baby. Anything you fucking want.”
Your gasp caught in your throat and your entire body tensed under him, back arching, ass pressing up into his lap, walls clenching around him so hard his vision went white. You came almost violently, your eyes squeezing shut, jaw dropping, toes curling under his shins.
“Oh, fuck-” Kyle choked. A guttural growl tore from his throat, nothing like his normal voice. His vision tunneled, and for a handful of terrifying, blissful seconds, he lost full control of himself.
His hips slammed down into you with erratic thrusts, fucking you through your orgasm like a wild animal. He pushed you down harder into the mattress with a bruising grip, his chest vibrating against your slick back.
“Fuck, baby- mine-” he gasped, practically drooling at the back of your neck. “So fucking- mine-”
You clenched around him even tighter at his words, letting out a broken moan that earned a particularly sharp thrust in return.
He came before you even finished. He yanked your hips up hard with one hand, the other snaking under your neck. He grabbed your throat and squeezed, holding you in place as he pounded ruthlessly into you.
“I'm- fuck-” he sank his teeth into the back of your neck as a shudder rippled through him. He panted around the mouthful of skin, his upper lip curling in a silent snarl, his eyes rolling back as his thrusts grew sloppy. He gasped, releasing your skin, and thrust forward one final time.
His jaw dropped as a groan ripped itself from his throat. “Fuck! Mine- this-” he ground his hips down hard as he came. “My pussy- mine. Mine. Mine.”
If he could have heard himself, he would've been disgusted at the animalistic words. But he couldn't, he was too far gone.
You heard them though. You whimpered, twisting under him as his tip pushed flush against your cervix, his length pulsing as he emptied himself inside you a second time. He came so much, you could almost feel it as it mixed with his first load. He kept grinding his hips in tight, rough circles, stirring his cum and pushing it deeper. He was in so deep it hurt, tip grinding mercilessly against your battered cervix. You choked on another whimper and clawed at the blankets under you, gripping on like Kyle would fuck you straight through the bed if you didn't.
Kyle came back to himself a few moments later. His jaw ached. His hips were so sore he could barely move them. Both thighs were cramped. He gave a weak thrust, pushing his cum deeper, forcing some out around his cock to trickle down your slit to your clit.
He released his hold on your hip to slide his hand under your body. His fingers found you, rough pads beelining for your clit. He smeared his load around it, fingers spreading around the bud, three flat fingertips rubbing it in like lotion. He didn't even know what the fuck he was doing. He just knew he wanted it on you, everywhere. He didn't want a drop spilled on the blanket.
He rocked his hips again as the final weak spurts left him, pooling with the rest against your cervix. He'd never come so much in his entire life. He'd never come so hard. He didn't even realize he had sunk his teeth into the back of your neck again until you gave a weak little whine.
He relaxed his jaw and pulled off, planting a sloppy kiss on the damp indents of his bite mark. He kissed down to the back of your shoulder, then slid his hand off of your throat. He brushed your hair from your sweat-slick face and pressed even more kisses to your jaw, up to your lips.
Kyle kissed the side of your mouth the best he could. You turned your head, giving him a better angle, and he slipped his tongue past your lips to lick into your mouth like he was trying to suck your teeth like candy.
He only parted when he had to breathe. He pulled back and pressed his forehead against the back of your neck, panting hot and heavy against the skin there. He planted another kiss to the purple bite mark.
Usually, Kyle would've felt guilty, seeing something like that. He bit you. He bit you so hard it was already bruised. On purpose. He lost control and hurt you. The ‘Hero of Harran’ would be horrified.
He didn't care. He liked it. It made his cock twitch inside you just from looking at it. That bruise was proof he'd been there. Proof no one could take away but time. And hopefully, you'd let him give you a fresh one before that could happen.
No one spoke for a while. Kyle stayed on top of you for another slow minute, hips still giving soft little rocks as he savored the tender aftershocks coursing through both of you.
Fuck, he had to piss.
He slowly eased off of you, using his hand between your legs to gently guide you on your side, your back still pressed against his sweaty chest, his cock still nestled deep inside you.
Kyle didn't know why, but he couldn't let himself pull out yet. The idea revolted him. He needed to stay inside you, just a little bit longer.
You were purring again. You tilted your head back, resting it against his shoulder as he slipped his arm under your head for you to use his bicep as a pillow again.
He kept his hand between your legs, fingers pressed against you. He didn't move them, he just wanted to touch you down there as long as you'd let him. He liked feeling your racing pulse throbbing in your clit under his fingertips. He did that to you.
He took a second to look at you.
You were so beautiful. Even now, makeup smeared and streaked, lips swollen and red from his mouth, cheeks bright pink. Your hair was a mess. He used his free hand to swipe it away from your face, his bicep flexing under your head before he laid his arm flat again.
He kissed the side of your neck. Softer now, not so heated and wet. Almost chaste. He kissed the corner of your jaw next. Then your tear-streaked cheek. Your temple.
He'd never seen anything prettier than you falling apart on his cock. Never seen anything prettier than you now.
He shifted, just trying to get more comfortable, and your hand wrapped around his forearm across your stomach so fast it almost startled him.
“Stay for another minute.” Your voice was small.
His heart swelled. He buried his face in your hair at the back of your neck and inhaled, slow and deep. “M'not goin’ anywhere.” He murmured, dragging your scent into his lungs. “I've got all the time in the world for you.”
You were glowing. You smiled, he didn't need to see it to know. He could smell it on you- that should've terrified him, the fact he could smell you smiling, but it didn't. He just sighed breathlessly in your hair and nuzzled his face deeper in it.
“Kyle?”
“Mhm?”
“I like you a lot.”
He groaned, low and quiet, and gave a gentle roll of his hips. You let out a broken sound and he repeated the action just to hear it again.
“Like you a lot too, sweetheart.” He breathed. “Thought I was past wanting someone this bad. Thought that part of me died in Harran.”
“Can I tell you something?”
He inhaled a deep, ragged breath, the sound catching in his throat. “Yeah?”
You shifted in front of him, thighs rubbing together absentmindedly, bumping his hand, causing his fingers to press a little more firmly against your clit. You shuddered hard, back arching again. You swallowed hard and tried to compose yourself again.
“You scare me. A lot. Not- not because of the whole… you know, grr thing.” You poorly imitated his Volatile growl, sounding more like a stray cat than anything threatening. “I'm scared because I really, really like you. And you're… you're- you're Kyle Crane. You're Superman. Heroes like you, you don't-”
Kyle pulled his hand out from between your legs to tilt your head up. He pushed himself up on his elbow, pulling his bicep out from under your head. He looked down at you with furrowed brows, eyes flicking over your face. Your eyes were watering.
“Hey- hey, sweetheart.” He crooned, cupping your cheek to keep you looking up at him. “I'm not some tragic fuckin’ hero that's gonna drop dead on you. You said it yourself. I'm Kyle fucking Crane. I've been trying to die for years and the world won't let me.”
You got this worried look on your face before he could finish and he almost laughed.
“I'm not going anywhere. ‘Specially now that I've got a reason to wanna stay on this godforsaken earth.”
He didn't realize how intense that was until your bottom lip wobbled. He didn't have time to feel embarrassed at himself for turning into a pathetic romantic. He leaned down and kissed you, slow and deep, rubbing his thumb over your cheekbone, rocking his hips just as slow and deep, stirring his cum back up inside you with his slowly softening cock.
You melted and kissed him back, reaching up to caress his jaw with trembling fingers.
When you parted for air, you laughed, the sound light and breathless. “I've only known you a month.”
His lips twitched into a half-smile. He looked down at you fondly through half-lidded eyes, still stroking your cheek with his thumb. “I know.”
He leaned down and kissed you again, his hand sliding down your waist to squeeze your upper thigh. He lifted it slightly, parting your legs, and rocked into you again. He felt his cock twitch and throb inside you. He broke away from your lips to suck in a shaky breath. “Fffuck. Push me off you right now or I'm gonna keep you like this all fucking night.”
You leaned up and captured his mouth in another kiss. He groaned low in the back of his throat, letting himself drape halfway over you, his chest resting over your shoulder.
Before he could grow hard inside you again, you pulled back.
“Want you again.” He murmured, kissing down your jaw, rolling his hips. “Can I? You let me?”
You whimpered, momentarily melting before you gently pushed him with a hand on his shoulder. “I need a m-minute. And something to eat. Some water?”
Kyle Crane x f!Reader Smut: The Baron's Aphrodisiac Pt.2
Summary: After realizing just an ordinary handjob wont help his problem, Olivia suggests something more... involved. It helps for a while, until it doesn't. You throw caution to the wind and help Kyle the only way you can anymore.
Warnings: Aphrodisiac, unprotected sex, things get a lil primal near the end 😏
You kept your word.
The second the sun was up enough to send the Volatiles running for their nests you set out for the Monastery. You brought Olivia the sample, gave her a rundown (leaving out the part about you giving Kyle a hand job), and told her to radio you as soon as she found anything out.
It took her all day to find anything.
“It seems the Baron has been experimenting with a new drug for the Chimeras.” She explained over the radio. “There's high amounts of an artificial hormone that triggers breeding behavior. He's amplified it, it looks like. I've also found some files on it, and it doesn't look good.”
You tried not to sigh. “What do they say?”
“They say a lot. I'll shorten it, this won't go away on its own. Or from manual release. The hormone is designed to grow more intense the longer the Chimera goes without reproducing. He was trying to get them to breed. Rapidly, apparently.”
You were silent.
“Kyle won't be able to just ignore this. It will get worse and worse until he does what the drug is designed for. Until then, he's just going to get worse. More aggressive. Tell him what he needs to do. Get it over with so we can continue our work.”
You failed to hold back your sigh. “Okay. Thank you, Olivia. I'll tell him.”
How the hell were you going to tell him that? Hey, Kyle. Just heard from Olivia. She said you need to get laid or you're going to go insane. Good luck!
You called him over that same morning. While you waited for his arrival, you sat in your office and planned. You planned what you were going to say to him, how you were going to say it. You thought of advice, words of comfort or motivation maybe. You tried to think of other ways he could get around this with.
You couldn't think of any alternatives.
He arrived an hour later, stumbling through your door, looking like he just crawled out of hell.
Every practiced sentence you'd planned flew out the window.
“Olivia said the Baron made a drug to force the Chimeras to reproduce more rapidly.” You blurted. “Your condition won't go away unless you-”
“Wait, wait, hold on,” Kyle cut you off, his eyes widening, “-what did you just say? The Baron’s been doing what?”
You had to sit down. Your legs felt like jelly. “I don't know any more than that. I don't know anything about Chimeras, that's kind of your thing. You should talk to her about it.”
He looked at you like you'd just grown wings and started flying.
“What are you telling me, huh?” He stepped closer, his voice rising in volume. There it was. The aggression Olivia spoke about. “That I have to- I have to do what?”
You tried to give him a look of sympathy, but it was hard when he was looking at you like he was seconds away from ripping your throat out.
“I know. I'm sorry.” You sighed. “That's what she said. I mean, maybe we can simulate it somehow? Trick your body into thinking it's having sex?”
His jaw dropped. “Trick my- okay. Okay. Alright.” He took a deep breath, closing his eyes, and took a step back. Neither of you had realized how close he'd been standing in front of you until then. “How can we do that? How can we- simulate that?”
You struggled to find words. “I- I don't know. Maybe it needs more female participation.”
“Female participation, how? Would you just fucking spit it out, Doc?”
Having Kyle shout at you like that made you feel like you were the one about to cry now. You took a breath to steady your voice, not daring to let him hear your voice crack.
“I don't know. I'm just throwing out ideas, Kyle. I don't know how this works.”
He looked down at you for another moment, his eyes scanning over your face. You caught them dip lower before he closed them entirely.
Finally, he spoke again. “I'm going to go talk to her myself.”
He left just as quickly as he came, the door slamming behind him.
You were at a loss. For everything. A loss for words, for thoughts, for actions. You just sat there in your chair and processed the last five minutes for the next few hours.
You had another dream about him that night.
It was the same as the last. He attacked you, begging you to help him. This time though, you did. You touched him again, just like you had in real life, only without a glove. And he wasn't anywhere near as stoic.
It didn't work. He was still in pain.
You were just getting your own pants off when something woke you up, whipping the dream into hot smoke
Someone had knocked on your door.
You sat upright and turned your lamp on. Your watch read eleven thirty-two in glowing green numbers. Who the hell could that be?
When they knocked again, you slid out of bed. “Coming.” You replied, quiet as possible, not wanting to wake anyone else in the building. You grabbed your robe from where it laid on your chair and slid it on, covering your bare arms and legs.
You didn't want anyone from the settlement seeing you in your pajama shorts and tank top. It felt far too revealing, especially when they saw you as a figure of medical authority.
You opened the door a crack.
It was Kyle. He was braced against the frame, his head leaning on it for support. His eyes traced up your form as you came into view, and in the light of the lamp you could see how blown his pupils were.
“Hey.” He breathed, his eyes dropping from yours. He looked miserable. Ashamed. “Listen, I know it's late. And I know I was a fucking asshole earlier.”
You opened your door wider and stood back.
“It's just… this whole thing is fucking humiliating. Didn't mean to take it out on you.” He finished, his tone raw and ragged, like he'd been screaming at the top of his lungs for hours.
He swayed then, his knee wobbling as something seemed to hit him. He squeezed his eyes shut and gripped onto your doorframe for support, clearly overcome by his symptoms again. “Please, let me in. It's back. So much fucking worse, Doc- I can't-”
The way his voice cracked broke your heart.
Seeing patients in pain always upset you. Especially when you couldn't do anything about it to make the pain go away, or to at least ease it.
But you could ease it, and you had. It was just a matter of doing it again, but with a little more effort on your part.
“Come on, sit down.” You murmured, jerking your head to your bed. “Before anyone sees you. I've got enough on my plate without rumors about Kyle Crane sneaking in my room at midnight.”
He nodded, stepping through the threshold into your room. He crossed over to your bed and sat down, a heavy breath leaving him as he took the weight off his legs.
You glanced out into the hallway to make sure no one had seen him before you closed the door.
You turned to look at him.
He looked worse. Sweating bullets, breathing ragged and shallow, his skin flushed and his eyes redrimmed. He just stared at the floor between his feet and did nothing. Refused to look at you.
“I shouldn't have left like that.” He muttered finally. “Stupid fucking pride. You're the only one who gets it.”
You crossed the room and sat down a few feet away from him. His body tensed up, his eyes darting over to you like he was analyzing your movement.
“It's okay. Olivia mentioned increasing aggression would be one of the side effects.” You wanted to reach out and comfort him, maybe rub his back or something, but you didn't know what was too far.
This was crossing the line from professional to intimate very fast. He was in your bedroom now, not your office. You weren't wearing your usual work clothes, you were wearing pajamas and a robe. It was way past dark. Everyone else was asleep, besides the night watch outside in the tower, and the guard at the door.
“Let's try this again, okay?” You broke the silence. “Just like last time. Just to buy us a few minutes of clear headed thinking.”
He visibly relaxed, nodding quickly. “Yeah. Okay.”
You took a deep breath and shifted on the bed, turning to face him directly. He didn't move, his legs still hanging off the side of your bed, boots planted firmly on the floor.
It was a little less awkward than last time, surprisingly. He unbuckled his belt and pulled himself out, quietly groaning at the contact.
You tried not to make a face when you saw how swollen he was. You knew that had to hurt bad. His tip was damn near red, puffy and leaking with precum. His shaft was a darker pink, veins swollen and pulsing with his rapid heartbeat.
You didn't have your pharmaceutical lubricant this time.
You prayed he wouldn't say anything, and got your own personal lubricant from the bottom drawer of your bedside table.
He didn't say anything, but you caught the way his attention seemed locked on it for a second. Eyes a little wider, nostrils flaring, his breathing quickening.
Great. Now he knows you masturbate. Now get over it.
When you wrapped your bare hand around him, warm and slick with lube, he instantly melted. He let out a breath and tilted his head back, his palms planting on the bed beside his hips to keep himself sitting upright.
You watched his face as you stroked him. His eyes were closed, just like last time, so you didn't have to feel bad about staring.
He made really nice faces when you touched him. Faces way too intense for such a bare minimum handjob. His eyes were softly shut, his lips parted open as he sucked in ragged breaths.
He looked like he was in pure bliss.
The closer he got, the more he changed. His breathing grew quicker, more shallow, and his head tilted forward instead of back.
His hips did the thing where they started jerking, but this time he made no attempt to stop them.
“M- m’close-” he shuddered.
You picked up the pace just a fraction and squeezed, curious to see how he'd react. Medical curiosity, you told yourself.
He sucked in a dry gasp and crumbled. His jaw dropped and he choked on a groan, thrusting up into your fist. He did that three times before he spilled over your hand again, his cock pulsing as he came.
“Shhh-shit-” he gasped, his body trembling. He fought to catch his breath, letting out another stained groaning sound.
You realized you were still stroking him and yanked your hand back, eyes wide. Shit. That wasn't right.
You'd tried to tell yourself this was strictly professional. The medic helping her patient with whatever necessary. What was only necessary.
And that? Stroking him even after he came? Was not necessary.
He grunted at the loss of your hand and opened his eyes. He struggled to find you in his haze, and when he did, he seemed to snap back to reality.
You gave him a moment just like the last time, stepping away to wipe your hand off with a random shirt from your clothing rack, your back to him. You could hear him zipping his pants back up, and when you heard the clink of his belt buckle you finally turned back around.
“Okay.” You exhaled. You walked back over and sat next to him again.
He swallowed hard, sitting a little straighter. He looked so out of place on your bed. This big strong man in his tactical clothes sitting on your single bed with pink sheets.
“I talked to Olivia.” He started, his voice low. “Told her what you said. About… female participation.”
You nodded, pulling your legs up under you.
“She said it might work. The hormones you put out when you-” he sighed, irritation creeping back in, “-fuck it. You know what I'm saying.”
“I do.” You whispered.
Here it comes. The big problem.
He knew how to fix it now, or at least how to try to fix it. The problem?
Picking a female.
The only reasonable choice was right in front of him. You knew it, he knew it. You'd already done this much together. It would be hard enough to explain all this to another woman, let alone trust her enough to do something so strangely intimate. She would need to be able to restrain herself. She couldn't do anything more than strictly necessary. If she decided she wanted more than that? If she wanted sex? Kyle wouldn't be in control of himself. He wouldn't be able to not fuck her.
He seemed to be thinking the same thing. His eyes slowly met yours, dark and heavy. His adams apple bobbed. He opened his mouth to speak, closed it.
He couldn't say it. He was too proud, still, even after all this.
“Are you willing to try it with me?” You asked.
He let out a heavy breath and nodded very quickly.
“Okay.” You ran a stressed hand through your hair. You glanced down at his lap- he was already hard again. Better to get on with it now.
You reached forward, unbuckling his belt with shaky fingers. He breathed in sharply through his nose. You were the one taking him out this time, not him.
He watched with baited breath as you freed him from his underwear again. He was just as hard as before, his cock slick with lube and cum.
Your heart sank.
“I didn't give you something to clean yourself with.” You muttered. “I'm sorry.”
He shook his head. “It's fine. Wasn't even thinking about that.”
You went to touch him, but pulled back. “Wait.” You looked up. If he was going to need to touch you, you'd need to be on his left side so your arms wouldn't tangle up together, awkward and in the way.
“Sit here.” You pointed to your headboard.
He nodded and kicked his boots off before pulling himself further back in your bed, legs laid out in front of him. He absent-mindedly touched himself as you climbed over him to sit on his left, his eyes following you, his hand giving himself a few lazy strokes.
That wasn't necessary either. Another non-necessary action to add to the list.
You settled in beside him and reached for him, taking over with your own hand.
You stroked him for a few seconds, your grip more firm than the last two times. Your movements are more focused on amplifying his pleasure, not just bringing on a quick orgasm.
He shuddered under your touch, his head thumping against your headboard. He was much more relaxed this time. He'd grown comfortable around you like this, rather quickly to be honest.
Was he actually enjoying it now? You didn't know. You couldn't read his mind. But it sure as hell looked like it.
After a few strokes, you suddenly remembered the reason you were doing this again right after he'd come.
It was time for your involvement.
“Kyle.” You whispered, your voice unsteady.
His eyes fluttered open and his head rolled to the side, his heavy gaze finding you. You glanced down at your own lap.
It took him a second to understand what you were getting at. When he did finally get it, his eyelids didn't look so heavy anymore. His breathing quickened, and he let out a quick little exhale through parted lips.
You were really about to do this.
Kyle couldn't believe it himself. Two days ago you were just the pretty medic he found excuses to come visit. He was just some hybrid that would come around for you to poke at.
Now?
Fucking mutual masturbation in your bedroom at midnight.
“Right, right.” He exhaled. His left hand rose from where it was fisting the sheets between your bodies, and slowly reached for you.
He grabbed the tie to your robe first. Tugged it gently until it came loose. Then he parted the fabric, exposing your thighs and torso. His eyes ran over your pajamas- the fabric thin and revealing. He could see the outline of your nipples through the top. The dark outline of your panties under the white shorts.
He trembled.
He brushed the hem of your shorts with his fingers first. His eyes flicked up to your face. You looked just as nervous as he felt, your eyes darting over his face and down to his hand.
The realization made him feel a little more in control. This wasn't just a medical procedure for you anymore. You were nervous. He inhaled deeply and his cock twitched in your hand. You were aroused again, too. He could smell it coming off of you in heavy waves this time. There was no mistaking it. No running from it. No pretending he didn't smell it.
He pushed his fingers under the waistband of your shorts. Ran them over the elastic on your panties. He could feel the fabric was covered in lace- you were wearing lacey panties. He choked back a groan and the impulsive urge to ask you if he could see them.
He dipped under them finally, fingertips brushing against your pubes. They were so soft, he wanted to bury his face between your legs and breathe you in. The thought had his hips rolling up into your fist.
He savored it more than he should have, honestly. The look on your face as he took his time getting down there. Your eyes had closed now, squeezed tightly shut, your own breathing coming in quick and uneven. And he hadn't even touched you yet.
When he finally did though, fuck. You were so slick it made him groan in surprise. He'd already smelled how aroused you were, but feeling it against his skin was something else. It was hot and wet under his finger tips, catching him off guard and causing his fingers to slide down further than he meant.
You sucked in a gasp when his index finger ran down your slit to your entrance.
Kyle clenched his jaw, his eyes locked on your face. He'd almost forgotten you were still touching him until your movements stopped. He jerked his hips up, bringing your attention back to him, successfully getting your hand back moving again.
He found your clit fast. He didn't hesitate to jump right into it, even if his movements were a little clinical at first. He circled lightly, traced between your folds, anything to get another gasp out of you.
It looked like you were trying not to make any noise. Your lips were pressed tightly together and your eyes were squeezed shut again.
That made him a little more motivated.
Even though Kyle hadn't been with a woman in a little over thirteen years- the whole thing with the Baron keeping him as a prisoner after running for his life in Harran- he'd still had his fair share of experience before all that. He knew what made most women tick.
He applied more pressure on your clit.
Your lips parted and you sucked in a shuddery breath, but not much else.
He applied more, using two flat fingers to rub in deep circles. Your fingers flexed around his cock and your breathing grew quicker, heavy pants that had him throbbing in your grip.
“Like this?” He whispered, speaking for the first time. “Tell me.”
You nodded quickly, trying to catch your breath enough to speak. “Yeah. Just like that.”
He let out a shuddery breath at the sound of your voice, keeping up the same pace and pressure. He could feel you growing wetter by the second. He could smell it, too. It made his nostrils flare and his heart hammer even harder in his chest.
At some point, you moved for the first time. A small involuntary twitch of your hips when his middle finger slid down between your folds.
“Do-” you choked, “do that again.”
He did it again, dipping lower, his fingertip prodding at your entrance, just a little. “Here?” He felt you clench around nothing. “Fuck- yeah, there.”
You nodded quickly, your hips shifting up again.
Maybe he was being bold, but he took that as a cue to push further.
Shifting his body slightly towards you, he angled his hand down far enough that he could push his finger inside.
You choked on a gasp, your left hand flying out to grab onto his bicep and squeeze as his finger pushed in deeper.
He made this rumbling sound deep in his chest, low and gravelly. Something he didn't even mean to do- it was like an automatic sound his body made in response to you reacting like that to something he was doing.
Once he was buried up in you to his knuckle, he curled his finger, earning another gasp from you. “Yeah?” He crooned, his voice coming out softer than he meant.
“Yeah.” You managed to whimper. Your hand on him started moving quicker, but sloppier.
He didn't mind. You'd given him one of the most intense orgasms of his life just by stroking him like you weren't even trying.
Plus, getting to touch you like this was more than enough to come to. Getting to watch you try so hard to keep yourself from falling apart was a reward on its own. Better than any porn he'd ever seen.
He bit down on his bottom lip in concentration, curling his finger again, more pressure this time. Your hips rolled up against his hand, and that's all it took to spur him into trying his damndest to make you come.
“There you go.” He breathed, curling quicker. He pressed his thumb against your clit and rubbed it in tight, firm circles. He kept his eyes locked on your face, soaking in your expressions.
He gave an experimental hard curl, pumping his finger as deep as he could. Your back arched off the headboard and both your hands squeezed him, the one on his bicep and the one around his cock.
He growled in response, thrusting up into your fist. “That's it. Keep going. I'm almost there.”
You squeezed him again, at the base this time, keeping a tight grip all the way up to his tip. He cursed under his breath.
You didn't even need to say it, he could tell how close you were. He could see it on your face, feel it in the way you clenched around his finger and rolled your hips, he could smell the fresh wave of hormones coming off of you.
“K-” you sputtered, your voice barely a whisper, “K-Kyle-”
“Do it.” He rushed. “Come on, let me feel it.” He urged, his voice coming out commanding despite the situation he was in. It should've been the opposite. You should've been leading him.
Yet here you were, all weak and dumbed out, writhing under his hand from just a few minutes of him touching you, breathing like you'd run a mile.
And here Kyle was, not a care in the world besides making you come. He curled his finger quicker, pumped it deeper, rubbed your clit harder.
Your voice broke into a whine as you came, and you went to slap a hand over your mouth. Kyle's free hand shot out and grabbed your wrist, pulling it down where he pinned it against your chest.
You keened.
“Fuck,” he groaned at the sound and the way you clenched around him, your walls spasming, your hips rolling, “thaaat's it, there you go. There you go.”
The feeling of you coming around his fingers and the way you looked while you did it was enough to make him come too. He released your wrist and grabbed the hand you had around his dick, squeezing it tighter, and fucked up into your hand like he only had seconds left.
He kept his hand wrapped around your fist as he came, guiding it in time with his thrusts, using your hand to milk his orgasm out of him. He tossed his head back, thumping against your headboard, and let out a long, broken groan.
He didn't even realize his fingers were still inside you until after he came down from his high and felt your walls pulsing around him from the aftershocks of your orgasm. He looked over, his eyes struggling to focus on you in his haze.
You looked just as wrecked. Your cheeks were a dark pink, and you were unable to keep your eyes open long enough to look at him. Your chest shook with unsteady breaths.
Neither of you moved or spoke for a long minute. He wasn't sure about you, but he'd be content to fall asleep like that- your hand around his softening cock, his finger snug inside you. For a second he felt like he actually just might fall asleep.
You were the first to move. You tugged your hand gently, which was still under his grasp.
He relaxed his grip and let you slip your hand out of it. Reluctantly he pulled his own hand out of your panties, but he did drag his finger up your slit one last time on the slow way out just to see how you'd react.
Your breath caught and you shivered.
After he tucked himself back in his jeans and buckled his belt, he just laid there. He didn't want to move. Didn't want to ruin the moment.
“Did it work?” You murmured, your voice quiet and raw.
He looked over at you.
You wouldn't meet his gaze, your eyes dropping down to your lap, where your hands were fidgeting idly. You were rubbing an absent-minded finger over the back of your right hand, right where some of his cum had landed.
“I think so.” His own voice was just as raw, coming out like gravel. “Won't really know until it comes back or it doesn't, right?”
You nodded. “Yeah. Right.”
It was silent again.
He knew he should get up off your bed and leave. You'd done your part, you'd helped him. ‘Treated’ him. His appointment was over.
Still, though…
No. He needed to leave. He swung his legs over the side of your bed, feet slipping back in his boots. He couldn't bear to look back at you. If he saw you lying there on your cute pink bed in your cute white pajamas he'd dive back in and never leave.
“Where's uh- where's those beds you were talking about?” He asked, leaning over to re-tie his boots.
“Oh.” You sounded from behind him. “It's the green door at the end of the hallway.”
He switched to the other boot.
“There shouldn't be anyone in there right now, but be quiet just in case.” You added. You were starting to sound like your normal self again. Not blissed out and soft and warm like how you sounded right before he made you come on his finger.
“Okay.” He stood up, grabbing his jacket. He still didn't look back. “Thanks,” it felt too wrong to call you Doc after something so intimate, so he called you by your name.
Your real name.
It must've caught you off guard because it took you a second to respond. “Of course. If anything happens tonight, please don't hesitate to come see me again. I'll be right here.”
He nodded, reaching the door. He opened it and stepped through, and for some fucking reason, he looked back when he pulled it shut.
You were sitting right where he'd left you, your knees drawn up to your chest, staring at him with this forlorn little look that made his chest ache. He only saw it for a second before the door clicked shut in front of him. If it was any longer than that, he would've given in to every instinct in his body telling him to run back to you. Hold you, comfort you, make sure you're safe and warm and content.
Stupid instincts.
You couldn't believe what you'd just done.
You let Kyle Crane get you off with his fingers while you gave him another hand job.
In your room, on your bed. At night.
It was one thing when it was on your exam table in your office. At least then you could rationalize it into being a strictly necessary medical procedure. Helping a patient however you could, last resort. Nothing more, nothing less.
You thought about it nonstop. The way that long, thick finger of his curled inside you. His callused thumb brushing over your clit. The way he spoke to you.
That's it.
There you go.
Keep going, I'm almost there.
Come on, let me feel it.
God, you came again that night after he left just thinking about it, feeling just as conflicted and confused.
It worked.
That's what Kyle said, at least.
He didn't come back that night, and you didn't hear from until around three the next day. He called on the radio and told you the news, his voice light and easy, you could feel the weight it had taken off his shoulders.
“No more symptoms? At all?” You repeated.
“Yeah. It's kind of fuckin crazy, actually. Feel like a brand new jackass.” His voice crackled over the radio. “Don't wanna jinx it, but I think it's over.”
“Wow. I'm so glad to hear that!”
“Yeah.” He paused. “Listen, Doc… I uh- I don't know how to thank you, for… that.”
"Don't. It's my job. I would've-” you cut yourself off. That was a lie. You wouldn't do that for anyone else. Maybe the first awkward hand job, but after that they'd be on their own.
You'd only do this for Kyle.
“I would've done everything I could to help you.” You continued. That was the truth.
“I know.”
You should've been jumping for joy.
You fixed a condition that should've only had one treatment. And you made it work without that treatment. That was a massive accomplishment.
And yet, you couldn't stop thinking about him. No more treatments. No more one on one time that involved more than you studying his rapid healing abilities. You've both seen what the other looks like when you orgasm. Felt each other, heard each other.
But you hadn't even kissed. And now? Probably never would. Would he even come by anymore after that? He might feel too ashamed and embarrassed to ever look at you the same again.
You couldn't blame him if he never wanted to see you again.
You went on with your day as business as usual. Tended to your more conventional patients again, worked in your office, studied the photos you'd taken of the healing process of the wound you'd given Kyle with the scalpel.
It was clear to everyone you were off your game.
No one aside from you and Kyle knew what had gone on between you, so it was natural they'd ask what was causing you to be so… absent.
“Did something happen?” Artie asked after he caught you staring off into space again. “You seem like you're not here right now.”
“Oh. Yeah. No, I'm fine.” You lied. “Just tired.” That wasn't really a lie. You hadn't slept well that night after he left, even though you had two orgasms in such a short time frame.
After dinner, when you'd showered and changed into your pajamas, you heard a voice come through on your radio again.
You ruffled your wet hair with your towel and picked up the radio from your bedside table. “Hello? Come again?”
The sound of your name coming through in Kyle's voice made you freeze. “-I- it's-”
He sounded so broken and frustrated that you immediately knew what had happened.
He didn't even need to say it.
You didn't hesitate.
“Come here.”
It didn't take him long to get to your settlement. By the time you made yourself look presentable- braiding your damp hair and fixing up your face a little- he was knocking at your door.
You opened it.
Kyle looked devastated.
The whites of his eyes were red like he'd been crying, and he had sweat dripping down his face and neck. He was panting like he'd run all the way across Castor Woods to get here, which was highly possible.
He refused to sit on your bed after you let him in and closed the door. He chose to pace back and forth across your room instead.
“I don't know what the fuck to do anymore, Doc.” His voice trembled with fear and loathing. “I never did, but- fuck! The Baron- that goddamn- that psycho piece of shit. I'm gonna kill him, I'm gonna-”
“Kyle.” You cooed. “Don't think about him right now. You're going to raise your levels of-”
He turned on you now, his eyes wild, nostrils flared hard. He was livid. Shaking with anger. “I don't give a fuck what I raise! I'm so past giving a fuck about anything anymore, this is his fault, he did this to me-”
You stepped closer to him and raised your hands up as if you were trying to calm a scared animal. Which technically, you very much were. Kyle was nothing but a terrified animal right now.
“We're going to fix this.” You took another step forward, using that same soothing voice you used to calm him down before.
He had calmed slightly at your comforting tone, but the fire in his eyes and in his voice were still there, along with a biting sarcasm. “Oh yeah? Yeah? How's that? The only way to fix this is to- is to stick my fucking dick in someone and-”
“I know.” You murmured. “I know, Kyle. If you let me, I will help you through this. For real this time. No more loophole bullshit.”
The sound of you cursing and the meaning behind your words made him pause. He shut his mouth. Opened it.
You watched as the raw anger flickered away, replaced with something softer.
“I'm not going to ask you to spread your legs because some bullshit drug the Baron made says so.” He spoke, his voice quieter. “That's not who I am.”
“I know you're not.” You murmured, “And you don't need to ask. I'm offering. I'm asking.”
He let out a shaky breath, his eyes scanning over your face. Like he was searching for signs of hesitation or fear.
All he found was sincerity in your steady gaze.
“I don't-” his voice cracked, “I- do you know what you're offering me?” When you nodded, he continued. “No, really, do you actually know what you're offering to do? There's no tricking this thing, it- it has to be-”
Has to be inside.
No condoms, no pulling out.
“I know.” You breathed out, trying to keep your voice as steady as it was moments ago. “Kyle, I know what I'm getting myself into. I know what I'm offering you. I'm telling you right now that I understand.”
He visibly crumpled in front of you. He looked like he might pass out, throw up, or cry all at once. Relief, fear, excitement, hesitation, every possible emotion ran through his features.
“I might hurt you.” He swallowed hard, his voice cracking. “I haven't… I haven't been with a woman since the Baron turned me into this- this monster. This thing inside me-” he sucked in a shaky breath, “it might take over. I might not be able to hold it back.”
The self hatred in his wobbly voice made your face crumple with hurt. Your heart ached for him.
You closed the distance between you and reached for him. You grabbed his shaking hands in yours and held them, gently pulling him back towards your bed.
“I'm willing to take that risk.” You murmured. “Now sit down before you talk yourself out of this. Let me help you.”
He looked down at you and nodded slowly.
Finally.
You stepped to the side to give him space to sit down on the edge of your bed. You took off his jacket for him, folding it neatly and setting it on the back of your chair.
You turned back to him. He looked more at ease without it on, sitting on your small bed in his pale blue t-shirt and jeans. His belt still made him look out of place though, covered in holsters, his Glock at his hip, and sheaths full of knives and one long machete stuck in the side.
“How do you not kill yourself wearing all this?” You teased, your voice soft as you reached for his buckle.
He glanced down at the machete resting haphazardly down the side of his thigh while you unbuckled his belt. “Luck.”
You took a step back to give him space to pull his jeans down. He moved a little awkwardly, limbs feeling too long and too big under your gaze.
His thighs were hairy and thick. Very thick. He could wrap them around your neck kill you with them easily, and the thought turned you on more than you'd like to admit.
Once he sat back down they looked even wider.
You took your pajama shorts off and stepped out of them, leaving your legs bare to the cool breeze coming through your window.
The sun had set now. You should close your window and turn on your lamp.
Kyle sitting on your bed in just his t-shirt and boxer briefs was far more important at the moment.
You weren't too sure where to go from here. Keep it as professional as you had been? Lay him down on his back and ride him with steady movements? Do you keep your shirt on?
Or do you let yourself forget your profession for a little while and let him take control for once?
You must've been visibly conflicted, because Kyle spoke up then, breaking the silence.
“Come here.”
Kyle was in over his head.
You were standing in front of him in nothing but this thin pajama shirt the color of his right eye. Little pearly buttons went up the middle. You were wearing lacey boyshort panties again, white this time.
Something about you looked so warm and soft. So feminine, so domestic. You looked like the kind of girl he would dream about when he was in the special forces. The kind of girl other men would have captured in polaroids in the chest pocket of their uniforms.
Sweet. Beautiful.
He could picture you in his old apartment in Chicago wearing one of his t-shirts and those same panties, your hair loose and a little messy around your shoulders, smelling the same way you did now. Like shampoo and jasmine and you. You'd smile at him when he came through the door, your arms spread wide for him, still a little hazy and soft with sleep.
The image sent another lump forming in his throat.
He reached out for you with his right hand. “Come here.”
You stepped forward, coming to stand between his knees. He could smell you even stronger now. Shampoo, soap, jasmine, and sweetly thick arousal.
He touched you, one hand on your side, his thumb brushing against your ribs over your shirt. The material was just as soft as it looked. His other arm wrapped around you and he splayed his hand across your lower back, pulling you forward.
He helped you into his lap with steady hands. You slid into place easily, your thighs parting around his waist, your hips slotting against his.
He groaned at the contact. Until that very moment his aching dick had been almost forgotten. Now it was forefront and center in his mind again.
You were so warm against him. So soft. He grabbed your hips and pulled you down, grinding his bulge against your clothed heat.
“Shit.” He exhaled. You were so wet. He could feel it dampening the fabric of his own underwear. He'd smelt it before you'd even taken your clothes off, but feeling it firsthand against his crotch was a whole different experience. Just like that time he felt it with his fingers, only better.
And he was about to feel it on his dick with no fabric.
It was taking every bit of self control he had not to rip his dick from his underwear and shove it in you straight away.
The soft little breathy gasp you let out wasn't helping either.
His hands flexed on your hips, and he pulled you down again, grinding you over his cock. The friction had his eyes rolling back and a gasp of his own escaping his lips.
Your hand cupping his cheek had him opening them again so he could look up at you through heavy lids. He leaned into the touch like a man starved, nuzzling against the soft and warm skin of your palm. Your thumb stroked over his bottom lip and he parted them, letting you press the pad of it against his lower two front teeth.
You rolled your hips against him.
His breath caught in his throat and he bit down on accident, leaving behind a dark pink imprint of his teeth on the pad of your thumb.
You gasped, wincing, and when he opened his mouth to release you and apologize, you dipped forward and kissed him so fast it made him flinch.
Kyle had kissed his fair share of women.
He'd had good kisses, bad kisses. Sloppy kisses, drunk kisses, high kisses, angry kisses, kisses that made him hard and kisses that made his heart race.
None of those kisses compared to kissing you.
The way you melted into it immediately had his soul aching for you. His hands on your hips slid up, one gripping the side of your ribcage, the other snaking up your back. He grabbed the hair tie at the end of your braid and slipped it off, using shaky fingers to brush your hair loose.
You kissed him like you'd been waiting your entire life for permission. He kissed back with the same fervor, tilting his head to get a better angle. Your lips were so soft against his, everything about you was so damn soft. So warm. So feminine. It sparked every primal instinct in him to tighten his grip on you, pull you flush against his chest. Keep you close, keep you safe.
Make her feel good. That's your job as a man. Please her and protect her and fill her with you.
The thoughts weren't his, but at the same time, they were. All the thoughts he never put together on purpose. Everything he thought deep inside in some ancient primal part of him.
You were trembling against him.
Once he got your hair loose from its braid he ran his fingers through it and grabbed hold of a handful. He used it to tilt your head back as gently as he could manage in this state to get a better angle to deepen the kiss.
His tongue pushed past your lips. He needed to taste you. He'd been dying to taste your mouth for days now. Even before that last dose of GSB.
You tasted like minty toothpaste and you. Warm and sugar-sweet and dripping with lust. It blew his mind he could not only smell your arousal, but he could taste it in your saliva.
He growled into your mouth and rolled his hips up against you. Hard.
“Oh, hm-ah-” your gasp stuttered, your hands landing on his broad shoulders to steady yourself after the rough movement. “F-f- Kyle-”
He tugged your hair once, rolled his hips up again. He watched the way your mouth hung open and your eyes fell shut again.
“Yeah? You like that?” He breathed, giving another experimental tug.
You blushed and nodded.
He tugged your hair again, harder, until your jaw dropped in a gasp.
He pressed a kiss to your bottom lip. Then another one at the corner of your mouth. A third on your cheek. Down to your jaw, your neck, your throat. By the time his lips found the crook of your neck you were panting and limp in his hold, unable to speak.
His hand fell from your ribs to your hip again. It grabbed the hem of your shirt and tugged once, silently pleading for you to take it off.
You struggled to oblige him, but you managed with a little help. Once it was off, he tossed it over your shoulder without looking where it landed.
He didn't give himself proper time to admire your chest with his eyes. He looked at your breasts once, quickly, before he was leaning forward, tilting your body backwards so he could dip his head down and take one of your nipples in his mouth.
You whispered, soft and sweet, your hands squeezing onto his shoulders to keep from falling back. He gripped your sides firm enough to keep that from happening, but you were too far gone to realize.
He swirled his tongue around your right nipple, tasting and teasing before he switched to the other one. One hand came up to feel you, to squeeze and stroke and pinch while his mouth worked on the other one.
Anything to keep you making those noises.
“Kyle,” you whined, rolling your hips once, “please-”
He made a low rumbling sound deep in his chest, his hips bucking up to match your rhythm. “Please what? What do you want- tell me. I'll give you anything.”
You whimpered at his words. “Touch me.”
He could do that.
With his boots off, he lifted his feet off the floor and pulled you both to the middle of the bed, lying you down on your back.
He took a second to look over you.
You looked so small and fragile under him like that. Your face flushed, lips parted and glossy with his spit, eyes hazy with lust. He captured the image to memory before he reached for your panties.
He ran his fingers over the crotch of them first. He wanted to feel how wet you'd made them. The fabric clung to you like cellophane, showing a lewd outline of your folds, the slit between them. He pushed his thumb against exactly where he knew your clit would be, having memorized you from just five minutes of touching you there the other night. Then he pressed it down your slit, feeling the fabric glide against your folds from how slick you were.
You arched under him, your thighs spreading wider on instinct. He could smell how impatient you were growing. How desperate.
He'd told himself he would take his time with you. He finally had you where he wanted you, weak and willing underneath him, but he couldn't bring himself to wait.
His cock was too fucking hard and the beast inside him was clawing itself bloody trying to take over and get to you itself.
He leaned back on his knees and lifted his shirt over his head. Your eyes landed on his torso, the dark hair there that led down to the waistband of his underwear. He felt his chest swell with pride at the way your eyes widened.
He wanted to make a joke. Not too bad for pushing sixty, huh? But he couldn't find the words.
Instead, he just grabbed your underwear and pulled them down your legs.
The second his eyes landed on you, his restraint shattered. You were slick, glistening in the dim lighting of your room, and without your panties in the way he could smell all of you so much clearer.
Hot, wet, sweet, fertile. Wet for me. For me.
His right hand shook as he shoved it past his waistband and pulled out his cock.
If he'd seen the state it was in he likely would've passed out. The tip was swollen and way past leaking, it was practically oozing with precum. The shaft was no better- the veins bulging along his length, pulsing and throbbing with his heart beat. He twitched in his hand as he shifted higher up on the bed between your legs, laser focused on getting himself inside you.
“Wait-” you breathed, your hand shooting out to press against his chest, stopping him from getting closer.
His eyes flicked up to yours, burning with desperation and impatience he couldn't even control. “What?” He barely managed to get the word out.
You didn't say anything, you just grabbed hold of his shoulders and guided him down to switch spots with you.
You were lucky you caught him before he stuck his dick in you, or else there's no way he would've had the restraint left in him to willingly allow you to put him down on his back.
He watched as you slid your thigh over his waist and hovered over him. You looked a little nervous, like you didn't really know what you were doing, and it made his skin burn.
Help her, take over. Show her how. Do it for her. He wanted to lay you back and do all the work, you deserved to lie back and enjoy it. You'd done enough for him. She's given me more than I deserve already.
Still, he laid back and let you stay in control like you wanted. It made his hands itch and his teeth ache, but he let you.
You cursed under your breath. “Help-”
He grabbed onto the base of his cock and held it in place for you, lining himself up. With his free hand he gripped onto your hip, gently trying to pull you down.
You whimpered something he couldn't understand. The ringing in his ears was too loud. All he could focus on was the feeling of your slick heat starting to envelope his tip.
He growled, the sound ragged in the back of his throat. You were so tight it was almost blinding how all-encompassing you felt.
Your breathing had turned shallow as you sank down further. Kyle knew his dick could be a little much sometimes. It was a source of both pride and irritation his entire life. Sure, he had a big dick and he knew it felt good. He knew what to do with it, too. But he could see the pain in your face as you took him, your bottom lip twitching and your eyes squeezing shut against the burn.
Even before the Mother turned him into some half Volatile half human hybrid he was big. Now it was even more of an inconvenience.
Both his hands slid up your sides, desperate to comfort you. “Shh,” he caressed your breasts, rubbing his thumb over your nipples, “that's it. You're okay.”
You nodded, biting your bottom lip while you lowered yourself further. You were halfway down now. That should've been the worst of it, right?
Neither of you had noticed how thick the base of him had grown. And even if you had noticed, you wouldn't know why. Side effect of the Baron’s experiments? Did it come with the beast half of him? Or was it the new GSB variant? He didn't know, didn't care.
You didn't know, but you were starting to care, because fuck this stings!
You were growing impatient too. You felt almost annoyed. You've taken a bullet before, you've stitched yourself up more times than you can count. Now you can't take a simple dick? The thing you were biologically hard-wired to do?
You clenched your jaw and let gravity take care of the rest.
Your heart got stuck in your throat when your pelvis sank flush against his.
That was stupid, way too fast. The stretch burned so badly that it instinctively made you want to jump off of him.
You gasped, your hips rising back up, away from the sharp and sudden pain -
"No, no, no. Shh. Don't." Kyle jolted to sit upright, his arms sliding around your torso before you could move away, wide hands splaying across your back. He buried his face in your neck and peppered you with kisses, murmuring sweet nothings in this deep and low voice that seemed to somehow ease the pain.
Your head swam. Your walls spasmed around him, struggling to relax and adjust to his size. You swore there was no way he was that big. You'd seen his dick before. You knew it was impressive, but to have you in a state like this? Unable to move?
No, something had definitely changed.
Kyle was surprisingly patient, though he wouldn't let you move away. He ran his fingers through your hair, sitting perfectly still under you, his free hand stroking your back.
You swallowed a whine that threatened to escape your lips and rolled your hips once the pain started to fade.
Kyle's hands froze, a broken groan catching in his throat. He mirrored your action, grinding up against you, sending a sharp jolt of pleasure through your abdomen and up your spine.
He was in you so deep. You'd never felt anything that deep before. You felt him in your throat. You took another moment to breathe.
“Move.” He whispered against your mouth, the sound strained. “Please. Need you to move.”
You nodded quickly, reaching up to grab onto his shoulders to steady yourself. You started moving, lifting and sinking, your pace slow and deliberate.
He groaned in relief. His hands moved down to grip your hips, guiding your movements easily, as if you weighed nothing. To him, to Kyle Crane, you did weigh nothing.
His hips rolled up to meet yours on every downstroke, controlled but hungry, subtly trying to move deeper and quicker than you allowed.
You were finally adjusting to him, the burn fading away to a pleasurable stretch. You let yourself move a bit more freely now, your body doing most of the work on its own.
“This okay?” You shivered, grinding down harder when you sank down to the base of him.
His eyes, dark and half lidded, met yours. He nodded, a heavy breath leaving his lips. “Yeah, baby. This is okay.”
Baby.
He called you baby.
Your eyes fluttered shut and you swallowed the moan that would definitely embarrass you. No Doc, no first name, he called you baby. It felt so intimate and sweet you couldn't help but melt against his chest.
But you could tell by how stained his voice was that it wouldn't be okay for much longer. He was doing everything he could to hold himself back from fucking up into you like an animal. You could feel it in the way his fingers were bruising your hips.
You just wanted to hold onto your control for a little longer. You were supposed to be helping him. You were supposed to put in the work to make him feel better on your own terms.
Wasn't it only right that you at least tried to do all the work?
That logic was quickly fading.
Suddenly, his hips snapped up quick and harsh, stabbing his cock in deeper. He groaned, raw and ragged, his head falling forward until his forehead hit the crook of your neck.
A sharp noise sounded from high up in your throat. You dug your nails into his shoulders, your hips rising on instinct away from the pain.
A low and frustrated whine built in his throat, sounding so much like a crying dog that it startled you. “You've gotta move a little faster, baby. Bein’ so damn gentle it hurts.”
You hesitated, falling back into your steady rhythm. “I don't wanna push you. You said-”
His face lifted from your neck, his eyes looking less hazy and more pleading. “I know what I said. But, fuck-” his voice broke into a shuddery gasp when you rolled down on him a little quicker, “-it hurts. I need- fuck- I need more.”
Your heart ached.
You nodded once, slowing your movements to a stop, handing over your control to him. “Okay… Take what you need.”
It didn't take him more than half a second to take you up on that offer.
He flipped the two of you, holding your body tight against his as he rolled you over onto your back. He was so precise with it that you didn't even realize what had happened until he was on top of you, one hand grabbing your knee to push your thighs further apart for him to sink in deeper.
For a moment, you felt like you'd failed him.
He's not happy with me. He had to take over. I wasn't good enough for him, he's disappointed with me.
But that faded quickly.
Kyle could smell it on you. And he was quick to soothe. He propped himself up on his elbows on the mattress, caging his body around you, and dipped down to kiss you. Deep and raw, like he was trying to swallow you whole, before he pulled back.
“You feel so good, baby.” He breathed against your lips, rocking his hips forward. “Makin’ me feel so good. You're perfect.”
He could smell the anxiety and dread leaving your body, replaced with something sweeter. You whimpered low in your throat and clenched around him, lifting your hips to take him deeper.
A growl of approval rumbled deep in his chest. His hands slid down and found your thighs, where he hooked his arms under the bends of your knees and pushed up.
He sank deeper as he pushed. He grabbed onto your kneecaps, leaning over you with his weight, pressing down until he had you in a tight mating press. Your thighs and knees touched the mattress on either side of you, your feet in the air behind him.
He knew he should've been more careful, been more gentle with you, he shouldn't have pushed you into such an intimate position like that as fast as he did.
The noises you were making though… maybe he didn't fuck up after all.
“Yeah?” He murmured, giving a deep roll of his hips against you. The new position had you open and tight for him, your walls squeezing his thick cock, able to take him balls deep now.
“Y-yeah-” You managed, your voice a broken whimper.
“Like that?” He repeated the action, drawing back barely an inch before he ground back into you.
You nodded quickly. “Uh-huh!”
He growled again in approval, pulling back further this time. He thrusted once, hard and deep, punching a moan from your throat. He repeated the action again, quicker, and that's all it took.
Kyle's rational brain had been shut off. His body had taken over- driven by pure instincts, the beast, the GSB- and all that mattered anymore was finishing his job and finishing it well.
Fuck you, breed you, claim you as his.
As he kept up his punishing pace he leaned forward even more, forcing your knees back further, his chest pinning your thighs up against the mattress.
He buried his face in your neck and inhaled deeply, filling his lungs with your scent. You smelled so intoxicating that it made him dizzy. It was like you were made for him, from your body and mind to your scent and soul.
“Oh, God, Kyle,” you cried, gripping onto the biceps that were around you like a cage, “f-fuck, please-”
“Please what?” He slurred, his voice thick and hazy, “what is it baby? Whaddya need?”
Judging by the way you just whined and trembled under him, you didn't know either. Maybe you were just overwhelmed and needed to speak, needed him to ground you, talk you through it.
“Doing so good for me.” He pressed a wet trail of open-mouthed kisses from one side of your neck to the other. “F-fuck, that's it. Good girl. So good.”
You clenched around him hard at the pet names and praise. He groaned against your throat, snapping his hips forward faster. Each rough thrust had you gasping, the pleasure well beyond overwhelming now.
All you could do anymore was take it and feel it.
“K-” you tried speaking again, and failed. He was fucking you too hard, the words breaking in your throat before you could get them out. “Ky-”
He could feel how close you were, he could smell it coming off you in waves.
It spurred him to do better. Make her come for you, make her feel good, the voice inside him echoed. He needed to do this for you, prove that he was worth something, prove he was enough-
“Yeah?” He breathed, pulling his head up from your neck to look down at you.
He nearly lost his breath at the blissed-out look on your face. He made you look like that. And it did a hell of a lot more to him coming from you. “You gonna come for me? You can- fuck- come on.”
Your mouth hung open in a silent cry as it hit you, the tension in your core snapping, sending you spiraling down hard and fast. You couldn't keep your eyes open no matter how much you tried, it was too much all at once.
Kyle let out a growl that was more of a vibration in his chest than an audible noise. “So good, sooo good baby, there you go. There you go.” He urged you on, grinding his hips in deep circles, letting you feel how hard he was and how deep he was inside you. “Feel that? That's for you. All for you, baby. All yours.”
You pressed your face into his bicep near your head, muffling the cries you were unable to stop from coming out.
As much as he wanted to hear every one of them he let you bury yourself against him, fucking you through it. He could feel his own orgasm coming, and he picked up the pace so he could reach it quicker.
It was almost too emotional for him to handle.
The scents coming off of you overwhelmed him. Bliss, ecstasy, arousal, everything good all at once. A sign that he did his job well, better than, he got what he wanted. He'd fulfilled most of his role, satisfying this deep, biological hunger deep inside him.
And now, finally, he was getting what he needed. The last few days of hell actually meant something. His suffering wasn't for nothing, and he was actually almost grateful for it. He would've never been able to feel this if he hadn't been through that before.
His throat ached. His body pulsed, his skin tingling all over. He could feel your walls still pulsing around him from the aftershocks of your own orgasm, trying to milk him dry before he'd even come.
“Shit-” he choked out, his head spinning, “fuck- I-”
Now you were the one talking him through it.
“Come for me, Kyle, please.” You cooed, your voice soft and airy. “Let me feel it. Come on.”
That sent him over the edge.
His body locked up and he slammed his hips forward, instinctively trying to shove himself as deep as he possibly could. He could feel his tip slam flush against your cervix, the same part he'd been so cruel to the entire time, and he bore down with all his body weight, keeping him locked firmly in place.
“Take it,” he spit through clenched teeth, “fucking- take it. Mine- fuck- mine-”
The words died in his throat as he came inside you. He pressed his hips- already flush with you- forward harder, rocking in tight, tiny grinds as he filled you.
His mouth opened just enough to get his teeth on your neck, right where your scent was the strongest, and he bit down so hard you gasped. He held you there for a few seconds as the first of his cum flooded you, his jaw clenched firm and his teeth sinking deep.
He didn't mean to do that, it just happened.
The sound of you in pain was enough to get him to release his hold on you, leaving behind deep red marks on your neck in the shape of his teeth. He hadn't broken the skin, but that was going to leave behind a bad bruise nonetheless.
Now he knew why you'd been begging for nothing earlier. The pleasure was blinding, he found himself growling nonsense just so he could speak and ground himself.
“Good- so good- fuck-” he was drooling into your neck, his mouth hanging open as he sucked in ragged breaths through it. He nuzzled his face against your skin, huffing your scent like he was a junkie and you were gasoline. He didn't know why he was so intent on rubbing his face all over you like that, he just knew his body and his beast were telling him to. He would've rubbed himself all over you in that moment if he could.
You were still clenching and throbbing around him. You'd come a second time right after he did, those tight grinds he was doing had been the right amount of pressure against your sensitive clit. You were just as spent as him now, gasping for air, riding through the aftershocks that had both your bodies trembling.
He rolled his pelvis forward again on instinct, driving his cum deeper inside you, his body guiding him to secure the chance of it taking. He wasn't thinking, he was simply acting, obeying the chemicals in the GSB that commanded him to reproduce.
After a few long moments he finally caught his breath enough to pull away from your neck. His half-lidded eyes roamed over you- the dark red mark he'd left on your neck, your skin shiny with his saliva and your shared sweat. When he saw your face, another small wave of pleasure jolted through him, and he gave another deep roll of his hips.
You let out a little moan, tired and fucked-out. Your eyes were barely open, your pupils blown so large he could barely see the color. You had this healthy glow to your skin, cheeks flushed, another sign he'd done well.
At some point he had collapsed on top of you, unable to keep himself up anymore. He didn't realize it until your fingers dug into his shoulders and you gave him a tiny push.
He quickly pressed his elbows to the mattress on either side of you and pushed himself back up.
It took a while, but he was slowly coming back to his senses. His cock was still deep inside you, taking its sweet time in softening.
“You okay?” He inhaled, eyes roaming over your face. “Took it all so good… so good. My good girl.”
You practically purred. You nodded, his praise making satisfaction come off you in waves he could smell. He could still smell those subtle things, even after this.
He ran his fingers through your hair, brushing away some of the strands that had clung to your sweaty face. “So beautiful.”
You hummed, the sound soft and sleepy. “Did it work?”
It took him a few seconds to realize what you were talking about.
Then it hit him like a train.
“I don't know.” He admitted. His tone came out blunt, raw, vulnerable after what you'd just done together. “I don't care. Really don't fucking care.”
The look on your face was enough to quell the feelings of doubt growing in his chest. You liked what he just said, liked it a lot.
He dipped his head down and kissed your forehead. Chaste, gentle, a stark contrast to the aggressive way he'd fucked you moments ago. “I'd suffer through it every day for the rest of my goddamn life if it meant I could have you like this again.”
You inhaled a shaky breath.
He leaned down, pressing another kiss to the bridge of your nose. Then the tip of it. And then finally, your lips. He kissed you deep, his tongue sliding across yours, hungry despite just having you in the most intimate way.
Your hands slid from his shoulders up to the back of his neck, tugging him closer. He got down off his elbows and laid on top of you again, less crushing this time, and broke away from your lips to plant featherlight kisses down the side of your neck to the mark he'd left.
You shivered under him. Your fingers stroked through the back of his short hair, nails scratching against his scalp, and drew a content rumble from his chest.
You were relieved he'd been the one to say it, because you weren't sure you could have.
How could someone go back to what you had before that?
Kyle found himself wondering what the Baron would think if he knew what had happened. He'd unknowingly given Kyle the greatest gift anyone had ever given him. Better than the dirt bike his dad bought him for his fourteenth birthday. Better than the puppy his mom got him when his dad was overseas and they were lonely. Better than the watch his grandfather gave him when he turned eighteen.
Maybe it was the hormones making him so damn sentimental right now. Maybe when he woke up the next morning all these warm fuzzy feelings would be a distant memory and he'd have another reason to hate himself.
He doubted that, though.
You don't know which one of you moved first. At some point you both had to get up and use the bathroom and clean up.
Strangely enough, you didn't want to clean him off of you. You wanted to feel him between your legs as long as possible. You had to force yourself to run a warm rag along the insides of your thighs before going back to your room.
Part of you worried he wouldn't be there when you got back. Slipped out your open window, not so much as a note. Maybe a courtesy shout on the radio the next day, just so he didn't seem like a total asshole.
There he was though, sitting on the edge of your bed in his T-shirt and underwear, looking down at his hands, deep in thought. He looked up when you came back in, watching you close your bedroom door and approach him.
He looked so much better. He looked younger, fresher, lighter, like you'd given him back twenty years and took away the two decades worth of trauma. He even smiled at you, albeit it was small.
You turned off your lamp and let him pull you into bed. You laid on top of him, one leg draped over his hips, an arm curled around his chest. You buried your face in his shoulder and inhaled.
He smelled like you. You smelled like him. He tilted his head to the side and kissed the top of yours, pressing his nose into your hair to breathe you in.
“Hey.” You murmured, propping your chin up on his shoulder to look up at him.
He grunted in response.
“How do you feel, really?” You asked.
He looked up at the ceiling, his arm slipping under your neck to cradle your head against his shoulder better. His fingers traced lazy strokes on your sides, absent minded and soothing. “Haven't felt this in a long time.” He answered finally, his voice low and quiet. “Forgot what it felt like to feel so at ease.”
You nuzzled your cheek against his chest and let out a slow breath of relief. “Yeah. Me too.”
There was nothing more that needed to be said right now.
His breathing evened out first. The fingers on your waist slowed their tracing, and then stopped moving altogether. With your hand resting on his chest over his heart you could feel his pulse slow in real time. Your own heart rate seemed to sync up with it seamlessly, as well as your breathing.
You hadn't slept beside someone like this since-
You'd never slept like this before. Not this close. Not feeling this content and safe. You slept hard and deep, ignoring the alarm that buzzed on your watch at six AM, muting it with a click before you both fell back asleep.
And in the morning when you finally did wake up for real, Kyle did feel the same.
Kyle Crane x f!Reader Smut: The Baron's Aphrodisiac Pt.1
Summary: Kyle Crane gets exposed to an extreme aphrodisiac in a new strain of GSB. He comes to you, the only 'doctor' in Castor Woods that he trusts enough to help him with something so personal. You try to put off the inevitable as long as possible, but procedural handjobs can only get you so far.
Warnings: Aphrodisiac, unprotected sex
The only reason you had made it so far without dying were your skills in the medical field. You were no surgeon by any means, but any one who could stitch up a bullet wound and keep it from getting infected was someone people generally protected. ‘Escorts’ whenever you left or went on a run from people eager to protect someone who'd saved them plenty of times before.
It did come with its drawbacks, though. You were almost always busy. Sometimes you wished you'd been a runner or someone in agriculture instead.
Today was no different. You spent the morning saving a guy from bleeding out after he got attacked by bandits. You barely had time to sit down and eat lunch before another patient was brought in with a bad ankle sprain from falling off a roof.
Business as usual.
There was one thing you had to look forward to recently. The community you lived in- a tight group of survivors living in an old history museum in the country side- had been under attack by a bunch of the Baron's men. Kyle Crane, local legend, had just so happened to be nearby when the sound of gunfire drew his attention.
He was able to save the day heroically before any more of your people died.
Ever since that day he'd made it a habit to come by and visit. You'd insisted on tending to his wounds, but the next day when he'd come back, they'd miraculously healed. Not fully, of course, but they certainly didn't need any tending to.
You still asked him to come back.
“If you're okay with it, I'd really like to start seeing you regularly.” You'd told him that day after he put his shirt back on. “I want to see the healing process first hand. Maybe I can learn something from it that could help others.”
He'd snorted and said something like, “Yeah, sure thing doc. Next time I get shot I'll make sure to find you first.” He'd sounded sarcastic, but he did as you asked.
Every time he got shot, or cut, or received any kind of wound, he'd come see you at the end of the day. Take off his shirt or pants and let you poke and prod. He was a good sport, considering he was generous enough to let you cut him on purpose with a scalpel on his forearm so you could document the healing process from start to finish.
It became an almost every day thing at some point.
“I wonder if it's something tangible.” You murmured after taking a closer look at the scab on his arm. You'd cut him an hour prior, and in another hour it was likely to scar over. “Maybe there's something in that GSB you've been injecting that can be isolated and recreated.”
He shrugged, scratching at the skin around his arm. “Whatever it is, it's the one good thing to come from the Baron.” In a quieter voice, he added, “not worth all the other bullshit.”
You clicked off your penlight and stepped away from where he sat on your examination table. “You're really popular around here, right?”
He looked up. “Uh. I guess, yeah… Why?”
“So you know most people here? In the other settlements?”
His brow raised. “Again, yeah, why?”
“Do you know a chemist? Or a… pharmaceutical scientist?” You asked. “I'm not really knowledgeable enough to figure all this out on my own. My specialty is stitching wounds and fixing broken bones. Not… isolating chemical compounds in DNA samples.”
His suspicion faded quickly. “Yeah, I might know someone. I'll try to get her in touch with you soon. I'm sure she's already got ideas.”
She did get in touch with you that week. Olivia, a researcher who was already running her own tests on GSB. She became another regular occurrence in your already busy schedule, but you were glad to find someone who could actually understand what you were talking about and help you with it.
You rarely had free time after that. Between constant first aid, supply runs, seeing Kyle, and visiting Olivia at the Monastery, you barely had time to eat or sleep.
“I hope you find something out soon.” The older man who'd been assisting you in the medbay said after helping you dig out a nasty piece of glass from a patient's foot. “Seems like everyone's getting hurt more and more lately.”
You nodded in agreement, rubbing between your eyes. “Me too. I think Olivia's onto something, though. She's not the best at communication so I'm not sure, but it looks promising.”
You hoped you were right.
“Olivia's tracked down a new Chimera near the wood processing factory.” Kyle said, watching you as you sorted through your new supplies across the room.
He'd stopped by unannounced that morning to drop off a crate of medical supplies he stole off one of the Baron's trucks. It was full of medicine you couldn't find in pharmacies anymore- real painkillers, antibiotics, stimulants, and Benzodiazepines.
You felt like you were handling precious gemstones.
“Thought I could swing by afterwards. Bring you a sample straight from the source.” He continued.
You looked up from the bottle in your hand. He was sitting on your office chair, lazily swaying it with one foot on the ground, the other foot laid over his knee.
He should've left two hours ago, although you weren't complaining. You liked the company.
Kyle never usually stayed longer than necessary when he dropped by for your regular visits. He always seemed like he had something more important to do. Which was probably true.
“Really?” Your eyes widened. “You'd do that?”
He shrugged one shoulder like it was nothing. “Sure. Why not? Olivia's got plenty.”
You were shocked by the offer, but truthfully, you wouldn't know what to do with the DNA if he gave it to you. Look at it under a microscope? You were no scientist.
But it was so generous that it felt like an insult to reject the offer.
He made a face like he didn't want to repeat it, but he did anyway. “Call me Kyle. And it's no problem. Just give me some of those Adderall and we'll call it even.”
You didn't hesitate to toss him one of the bottles. You didn't really have a need for it anyway, not for patients, at least. Though you'd probably need to break into the other bottle soon if your schedule stayed so packed. You'd nearly fallen asleep at the kitchen table that morning.
“Thanks.” He gave you a little smile after catching the bottles and stood from your chair, stretching slightly. “See you tomorrow, doc.”
“See you tomorrow, Kyle.”
The next day was even busier than the last.
The kid who's stepped on glass came back because he'd ripped open the stitches trying to go back outside. He bled all over your floor and you had to get Ali to restrain him while you re-stitched the wound, which was in much worse shape. Those benzos Kyle brought you came in handy then.
After that, a little girl came in with a cough, her mother frantic, but not doing anything to stop her daughter from coughing without covering her mouth. You gave them some over the counter cold medicine and doused the entire room with a disinfectant spray.
Another gunshot wound on a stranger someone from the settlement dragged back home. The stranger also had a gnarly infected hangnail and even though he handled the bullet wound fine, he cried when you tried to clean the hangnail.
You ate lunch in five minutes and then had to go on another run with your escorts to the school. You needed more gauze and almost every pharmacy in Castor Woods had been picked through. Thankfully you were able to grab a few things from the nurses office that hadn't been looted yet.
By the time you got home, the sun had begun to set and you were exhausted. You were almost too tired to eat dinner. Almost. You scarfed down your bowl of whatever stew the cooks had put together and dragged yourself back into medbay.
You hadn't sat down for more than thirty seconds before Kyle pushed open your door.
“Oh. Hi.” You smiled. You'd honestly forgotten he was supposed to come over, despite how his visits had become the highlight of your days.
“Hey, doc.” His voice was gruff, you assumed he was just as tired as you were. He was even busier than you most days. “Got the sample for your mad science experiment.”
He closed the door behind him before walking across the room, holding out a small glass vial of blood. You stood up to meet him halfway and took it from him, trying to be as gentle and careful as possible so your tired hands wouldn't drop it.
He shivered the second your fingers brushed against your palm.
“You okay?” You raised a brow at the reaction. You turned and set the vial on your desk, turning to look at him.
He looked the same as always, just a little worn out. His hair was a little ruffled and damp with sweat, his skin looked flush and he shifted his weight like he was tired of standing up.
“Yeah.” He answered, though it didn't sound convincing. “Bastard was a little more challenging than the other Chimeras, is all.”
“You just injected the GSB, right?” You asked. When he nodded, you pointed at your exam table. “Take a seat, I want to check your vitals.”
For a heartbeat it looked like he was going to decline. But he just nodded again and walked over to it, shedding his jacket after sitting down.
You liked to consider yourself a professional when it came to people's bodies in the medbay. You'd seen it all- breasts, genitals, butts, everything you could think of, and none of it fazed you anymore. You'd even seen Kyle shirtless plenty of times and didn't think much of it, despite how impressive he looked.
But for some reason, seeing him take off his shirt this time made you pause. He had a few injuries and bruises, but they were already healing.
There was just something different about him. The muscles in his arms, chest and abdomen all looked more defined, if that was even possible. You watched a bead of sweat trickle down between his pecs and disappear into the dark hair that went down the middle of his torso.
You realized you were staring and blinked, turning to grab your things. You came back with your blood pressure cuff and he lifted his arm, falling into the familiar routine.
He shivered again when you put it on him, your fingers stroking over his bicep as you attached the velcro together.
Your brows shot up. His skin was hot. Kyle always ran hot, but this felt like he'd been in a sauna for hours.
You grabbed your thermometer.
He opened his mouth, lifting his tongue for you. This was another thing you'd done several times before. And again, for some reason, it made you pause and stare.
Maybe it was the way he was looking at you. His eyes looked darker than usual, even the right one. Not just in color, they overall were darker. He wasn't looking at you the way he normally did, he was looking at you like he wanted to kill you. Or, something else? You couldn't put your finger on it.
Maybe the GSB was starting to be too much for him.
His temperature was 101.8° F. You frowned at the thermometer and reset it before sticking it back under his tongue.
His blood pressure was 150/95 mmHg.
“Okay.” You muttered under your breath, trying not to look as concerned as you were starting to feel. “Let me check again. This darn thing is so old.”
He just nodded, thermometer still under his tongue.
You waited in silence for the two devices to beep. The thermometer was first- 102.1°f. You were looking down at it with furrowed brows when the cuff on his bicep beeped and released with a soft hiss.
Same reading.
“Are you okay?” You looked at him again. He looked a little worse, honestly. He was breathing heavy and he had a sheen of sweat over his face, drops of it falling down his temples and neck. “These are both really high.”
“Yeah.” He breathed, shaking his head like he was trying to clear it. “I always get a little wound up after. I'm used to it.”
He looked like even he didn't believe that, his eyes refusing to meet yours again, his fingers twitching in his lap.
“Okay.” You sighed. You grabbed the chestpiece of your stethoscope and raised it. “Just let me do this and you can go get some rest.”
He nodded, albeit reluctantly.
You leaned in and placed it over his heart first. You glanced down at your watch and counted. His heart was strong. It thumped hard and fast, sounding like a set of heavy boots running on hardwood floor.
110 beats per minute.
Your eyes flicked up to his face. He was looking at you already, his eyelids heavy, his lips parted as he pulled in short puffs of air.
You moved the chestpiece down to his lungs. His breathing was quick and shallow, but it didn't sound strained or wet. It sped up even more when you leaned in closer to place a flat palm directly over his right lung to feel it yourself.
He stiffened under your touch. His heart rate turned rapid. You had to take a step back to make sure he wasn't having a seizure or heart attack on your table.
His hand shot up. It wrapped around your wrist for a fraction of a second before he released you, pulling back like you'd burned him.
“Fuck.” He exhaled. “Sorry. I've- I've gotta go.” He didn't wait for a response, he just grabbed his shirt and yanked it over his head. He put on his jacket and slid off the table, refusing to look at you. “I'm fine, I've just- I've just gotta get some sleep. Get some sleep and I'll be fine.”
You nodded, unsure of what else to do. “Okay. We have some spare beds upstairs, you shouldn't drive back like that. It's almost dark-”
He cut you off with a shaky laugh that was void of amusement. “I appreciate it, Doc, really, but I need to be alone tonight.”
He didn't explain why. Just threw you this forced smile and left like he thought you were about to pull out a gun and shoot him with it.
You were too tired to follow him or even think about it for too long. Five minutes after he left you wound up dead asleep in your room, still wearing your day clothes.
You did dream about it though.
In your dream you were taking his vitals again. Only this time his heart rate was over 200 beats per minute. His temperature was 500° F. He acted the same- tense, shifty, wound up, until you tried to check his blood pressure and he lunged at you.
He attacked you like an animal, pinning you to the floor, fingers clawing at your clothes. Your clothes. Not you. He clamped a hand down over your mouth and leaned in, his breath hot against your ear. “Just help me, Doc. Help me feel better. Please.”
It was one of the most confusing dreams you'd ever had. You woke up covered in sweat with your heart racing.
You just hoped he was doing better.
Kyle was in fact not doing better. He was doing much worse.
After he left your settlement he spent the night tossing and turning in a safe tower, unable to get more than an hour of sleep at a time. He was sweating his ass off, even after he took his clothes off down to his boxer briefs. His skin was on fire. He had restless leg syndrome all night. His heart felt like it was trying to crawl out of his chest.
It got so bad he downed most of a bottle of liquor just to knock himself out. Even then he would wake up periodically.
The next morning was no better.
Every morning he woke up with a hard on. That wasn't even something he paid attention to anymore. But when he woke up, he was so hard it hurt. Usually he'd just ignore morning wood and it would quickly go away.
This time though, he had to take care of it.
He felt a little better after that. His skin didn't feel so hot and he was able to get on with his day.
Until around lunch when he was hard again.
He was looting a dark zone when it happened. He got crowded by a bunch of biters. He changed, just so he could kill them faster. When the change passed and he was normal again, he almost threw up from how hard he was. His skin was burning up again and he had to jerk off in the private bathroom just to feel a little relief.
When it happened a third time he decided he needed to see you. You were the only medic in Castor Woods he trusted enough to go to with something like this. He couldn't imagine going to Olivia with it. The thought was just as bad as not doing anything at all about the issue. He didn't know her well enough to come in and say, ‘Hey, I've jerked off three times today and my dick keeps getting hard no matter what I do. Help?’.
He showed up around three in the afternoon. He ignored most of the people on the way to your office, barely giving them any sort of acknowledgement. He didn't care if he seemed like an asshole. He had bigger problems.
You were inside, laughing with that assistant of yours like he'd just told you the funniest joke in the world. Two heads turned to Kyle as he burst through the door, smiles fading.
“Hey, Crane.” The man said, a look of concern on his face. “You don't look so good, man. You okay?”
Kyle gritted his teeth. “I'm fine.” He hissed. His eyes landed on you instead, and softened a fraction. “Can I talk to you for a minute?”
You smiled at him, which he honestly didn't deserve with how aggressive he'd come in. “Sure. Can you go check on Ron, Artie? He probably needs his bandage changed.”
Artie nodded. He glanced between you and Kyle, like he wanted to say something else.
Nosey son of a bitch. She told you to get out. The look on Kyle's face must've made whatever he wanted to say seem not important, because he just turned and left.
Once the door was shut and his irritation faded, Kyle realized the shape he was in. He felt like his sweat was boiling off of his skin. Every breath he drew in wasn't enough.
And his dick… was unbearably hard again.
He gripped the edge of the table nearby, squeezing his eyes shut. “Fucking hell… not now.” He growled under his breath, trying to will away his erection.
You crossed the room, your brows pinched together. He could smell you the second he walked in the room- your flowery perfume, rubbing alcohol, antiseptics, and your actual scent underneath- but when you got close to him like this it hit him like a punch in the gut.
“What's going on?”
“I'm fine.” He lied through his teeth.
“You don't look fine. I've been worried about you after that blood pressure last night. You look even worse, let me look at you-”
He jerked away from your outstretched hand. “I said I'm good. Drop it.”
Clearly he wasn't good. That was the whole reason he'd come back to you so soon in a state like this. But with you close to him, smelling like that, looking like that, he felt like he was seconds away from reaching out for you instead.
And the beast part of him was urging him on. Growling at him to do it. The human part of him was telling him to run out the doors right now and go kill every infected in a five mile radius.
You didn't give up, you actually pushed harder when he snapped at you. “Hey, sit down. Here, drink some water. Let me at least get some fluids in you.”
He accepted the water, shuffling sideways to sit down in the chair behind him. Once he was sitting he downed the entire bottle, not bothering to wipe away the streams trickling down his throat. He sucked in a breath after he finished it, tossing the empty bottle haphazardly towards the trash can.
“I… I need some help.” He finally admitted, forcing himself to look at you. You were standing a few feet in front of him, your arms crossed and your face plastered with confusion and concern.
“I can see that. Tell me what's wrong. I'll do whatever I can to help you feel better, I promise.” You were speaking to him in a softer tone now. The sound alone made his dick throb in his jeans.
“That GSB, at least, I think it was the GSB.” He swallowed hard, running a shaky hand over his short hair. “There was something in it. Something the Baron changed- I don't know. It's different.”
When he didn't continue, you spoke. “What's different about it?”
He took a steadying breath, his eyes flicking away from yours. It was getting hard to keep them from wandering down your form. You weren't wearing your usual green jacket. You were wearing this tight long sleeve shirt the color of blood. He could see every curve and dip in your chest and torso, and those snug pants you were wearing didn't help either.
At least you were wearing a bra.
“Well, it started normal... I was healing even faster, it didn't take as long for me to get enough- enough energy to change. I could stay in that state for longer, too.” He had to take another breath and wipe a hand down his face. Sweat was getting in his eyes.
He took off his jacket.
“But, then the not-so-good side effects.” He could feel his cheeks burning even more. “All day… random… hard-ons. Started this morning. Usually, I can just… ignore it, and it'll go away. This one didn't.” He gripped his thigh and squeezed hard, trying to distract himself from the throbbing between his legs.
“Neither did the rest of ‘em. Each time it hurts more. Can't think, can't run, can't do shit without it sneaking up.”
You just nodded. He could practically see the gears turning in your head. You didn't look awkward at all, you were looking at him like he'd just told you he'd been having stomach pains or something completely normal.
That pissed him off.
“Do you know how goddamn inconvenient that is out there? Trying to dodge infected and- and bandits and the Baron's men while this shit keeps happening?” His voice rose without him even realizing it. “I've tried everything, cold water, ignoring it, running until I threw up, nothing works. It just, it just keeps f-fucking coming back.”
When you didn't immediately respond, he felt the need to keep talking. “I ran out of ideas. I- I need help, Doc. I need your help.” His voice cracked.
You nodded again, chewing on the inside of your cheek as you stared at the ground near his feet. “Okay. I'm sorry you're dealing with this. There's a few things we can try, if you're up for it.”
He let out a breath he didn't know he'd been holding. “Yeah, yeah. Please. I'll try anything.”
The first thing you did was give him some painkillers. He thought that was a great idea- every time he'd ever had to take opiates after a bad injury back in the service they'd kill his sex drive. Couldn't even get it up.
It helped the ache a little, but not much else. He was still stiff as a board.
You gave him a bag of ice next. He sat it in his lap for a good ten minutes.
“Great. Now my dick hurts and my nuts are frozen.”
You tried looking for something in one of your medical books. “Maybe you could try applying pressure to your perineum.”
“What the fuck is a per- a pernill-”
When you explained it to him, his face went red. He excused himself to the bathroom and tried anyway.
No luck.
You were running out of ideas.
“So, since the problem is reoccurring erections and not a single erection that won't go away, I don't think draining will do any good.” You sighed when he sat back down in his chair.
He snorted. “I've been draining the thing all day. I know it doesn't do any good.”
“I meant draining the blood.” Your words had his stomach dropping ten stories. He felt like he was going to throw up just from the thought of it. “It’s common practice if it's ischemic priapism. The doctor will-”
“Don't. Don't tell me.” He held a hand up, cutting you off.
A few minutes later, you shut your book and turned to him. He had the ice pack in his lap again and he was trying to control his breathing.
“Would you mind if I take a look at it?”
He groaned without meaning to. The idea of you wanting to see his dick would usually get him going. But now he just felt like you'd asked him to get naked and dance around Town Hall.
“Yeah. Whatever.” He muttered. He came there knowing you'd probably need to see it anyway. He just was hoping you'd be able to give him a magic pill or something.
It was just as awkward as he imagined. For him, though. You looked like it was just another day at work. Maybe it was. Maybe you'd dealt with dicks before in the office-
The thought made his blood boil with rage. Apparently irrational jealousy was another side effect.
He laid down on your exam table and unbuckled his belt. Your back was turned to him, likely giving him privacy as you slipped on a pair of latex gloves.
The second his hand came in contact with his dick he hissed. It was incredibly sensitive. He bit down a groan and freed himself from his jeans, awkwardly holding his cock in his hands for a moment before he decided to just let it go.
It stood comically erect.
“Okay.” He gritted his teeth.
You turned around, your eyes finding his. Then they dropped down to his lap and they widened. They fucking widened. He let out an unintentional whimper.
“What? That bad?” He groaned, his eyes rolling shut. “Oh. It's bad, isn't it? Goddamnit.”
“No-” you failed to put him at ease with the way your voice had risen in pitch, “it's not that bad! It just- it looks like it hurts.”
“Yeah? It fucking does.”
He kept his eyes shut as you walked closer, the sound of your shoes on the floor echoing in the silent room. He could smell how close you were. He could smell how concerned you were.
“Kyle, I'm going to touch it. Is that okay?” You asked in a voice so soft and gentle it broke his heart.
He nodded, refusing to open his eyes.
When your gloved hand came in contact with him, his hips jerked up so harsh he nearly rolled off the table. “Jesus Christ! Fuck, fuck- Doc, I’m sorry, shit!”
“It's okay, shh-shh-shh.” You hushed him quickly. “It's okay, just breathe.”
He nodded quickly, squeezing his eyes shut again, and took a deep breath. In through the nose, out through the mouth.
You touched him again. He managed to stay mostly still this time, but he did make a noise. A tiny, helpless little grunt. He was so embarrassed he was going to die.
The way you were touching him was methodical and precise. You felt how hot it was, how hard, searching for any signs of injury. You even felt his balls.
It wasn't sexual in the slightest, but his dick didn't care. It throbbed and twitched in your hand, and he had to physically restrain his pelvis from jerking again with his hands on his hips, gripping so hard he could literally feel it bruising.
“I've never seen anything like this. Never read anything like this before.” You murmured. Your hands left him and he shuddered out a heavy breath. “I don't think we have any options other than trying to bring it down manually again.”
“I've tried that. I fucking told you I've tried that all goddamn day-”
You cut him off, thankfully. He felt like he was about to cry. “I know, I know. I'm suggesting you let me try.”
His eyes snapped open. He sat up on the table, propping himself up on his elbows. “You're offering to jerk me off now? That's seriously what you're saying?”
You nodded, your face completely neutral. “If this is from the GSB, it might be something new the Baron is testing out. What's the only reason he would want Chimeras to react like this?”
He swallowed hard and looked away.
“I'm going to bring my sample to Olivia first thing in the morning and have her run some tests on it. She can do more with it anyway. But until then, we need to do something about this. You said you could buy yourself a few hours by relieving it yourself, right?”
He nodded.
“Then maybe I can buy you a little more time if I do it.”
The beast part of him was frothing at the mouth. Say yes, let her touch you. Hurry.
The human part of him was screaming at him. Get the fuck out. Put your dick back in your pants and leave. She's never going to see you the same after this. You've already humiliated yourself enough.
“Do it. Just- do it quick, alright?” He whispered, lying flat on his back again. “Let's get this over with.”
He kept his eyes closed.
You did as he asked and made it quick. It was the most unstimulating hand job he'd ever gotten in his life. You put a glob of cold lubricant on your gloved palm and rubbed it over him, one hand wrapped around him.
You didn't apply any pressure. It felt like you were just checking his pulse.
When you started stroking him though, it felt a lot better than it should have. His breath caught in his throat and his entire body tensed up.
Then you just had to start talking.
“What's your pain on a scale from one to ten?” You asked, stroking up to his tip, and back down to his base.
Back, and forth. Even pressure. It should have felt unimpressive, honestly. If a girl had jerked him off like this before the GSB there'd be no way he'd reach orgasm from it.
“Uh… seven. Down from nine.” He lied. The pain was almost completely gone. He felt amazing. Your hand felt amazing.
It was both the best and the most mediocre handjob of his life.
You didn't say anything else, you just continued your methodical stroking.
It took everything in him to keep quiet. Every time you stroked down, his dick twitched. Every time you stroked up, his breath caught.
His hips jerked up just a fraction when your fist slid up his length, unconsciously trying to follow your touch. He cursed under his breath.
He was close. Really close. It had been, what? Two minutes? He should've felt embarrassed, but he didn't. Not about that part, at least.
He clenched his jaw and choked on a groan. “Close.” He managed. “Fuck-” The first real slip. He hadn't meant to let that come out, but fuck, it just felt too good.
You didn't change pace like he did when he was close to orgasm. You kept it steady and slow, your grip firm but not squeezing.
When he finally came, he came hard. He sucked in a breath through his nose and balled his hands into tight fists at his sides, doing everything he could to keep from moving. He didn't moan, he didn't thrust up into your hand, he just gritted his teeth and rode out the waves of pleasure as they washed over him.
He shouldn't have enjoyed it. But he did.
He shuddered as the last wave pulsed through him, his body going limp on your table. He didn't open his eyes- he couldn't. He couldn't look at you after that.
You let go of him after he felt the last drop of cum leak out of him. He could hear the stretch of latex as you removed your gloves and threw them in the trash.
He listened as you turned on the faucet and washed your hands. He stuffed his tender dick back in his jeans and buckled his belt, only opening his eyes when he knew your back was turned. He slid off the table, landing on shaky feet.
He looked at you for a moment as you washed your hands. He couldn't see your face, but even in his hazy state he could smell you. You were steady, maybe relieved. You didn't smell upset or anxious or uncomfortable.
He hated that he could smell that now.
“Better?” You asked as you turned off the tap and grabbed a rag to dry your hands with, turning to look at him.
“Yeah.” He rubbed the back of his neck. “Thanks.”
You smiled, setting the rag back on the counter. “You think you can get some sleep? Still got that bed upstairs-”
He shook his head. “No, yeah, I'll be fine. Really. I feel a lot better.”
You nodded, smiling softer now. “Okay. Good. As soon as the sun comes up I'll go see Olivia.”
“Okay.” He swallowed hard. “Hey, don't- don't mention this to her, alright? I don't want her thinking I'm some fucking pervert.”
He could see you fighting the urge to smirk at his stupid concern. He knew Olivia wouldn't think that, but what just happened here felt… It felt too personal. Even if it was just medically necessary.
He didn't want to admit that it meant a little more than that.
“Of course.” You nodded. “Goodnight, Kyle. If anything changes, I'll be here.”
He forced a tight lipped smile and grabbed his jacket. “Yeah. Sure. See you.”
It was only on the way out that he smelt it. His nostrils flared and his hand froze on the door handle as he processed what smell just hit his nose.
He had to bite his tongue so hard it bled to spur him back into leaving.
Every fibre of his being was roaring at him to turn back and get to you after smelling your arousal.
Aiden Caldwell x f!Reader Smut: That's Not Weird, Right?
Summary: You've had a crush on Aiden since the day you met him. When Lawan invites you to come drinking with them, an accidental touch on the thigh leads to him touching you under the table before his restraint snaps and he brings you back to his place.
Warnings: Unprotected sex, public groping
Notes: So, like my headcanon that Kyle talks you through it the WHOLE time, I have another where Aiden tries to do the same but he's nowhere near as experienced so it's a lot of cut off sentences and stammering. Uhg I need him SO BAD
You never drank.
Really, you didn't. Not anymore. Alcohol makes you dehydrated and it's just not smart to get drunk in times like these when water is rare. You didn't go to the Fish Eye and get drunk like many people did. Not even when you were invited.
But this time, Lawan said Aiden would be there tonight. Aiden. The mythical, rooftop jumping, badass Pilgrim you'd fawned over in silence since the day he arrived in Villedor. You couldn't pass up this chance.
Lawan knew about your fawning, which was not-so silent around her. It was something she teased you about relentlessly. You suffered through the teasing the same way you suffered in your pathetic yearning over Aiden.
That suffering was going to pay off tonight. Lawan made sure of that, sitting you down in the booth across from her and Hakon, right beside Aiden Caldwell.
“Hey.” He had politely smiled, shifting over to give you space as you slid in the seat beside him. “Haven't seen you around in a while. Was starting to think you got a one-way ticket outta this hellhole and left us losers behind.”
He'd never talked to you this much before. You couldn't help but smile in return, picking up the glass of mystery alcohol Hakon slid over to you.
“Mmm, no. You guys aren't getting rid of me that easy.”
Playful was the play, right? That's what he was doing.
Aiden's lips twitched up into a smile behind the rim of his glass.
Playful was the play.
It didn't take you long to catch up to the other three. Your tolerance for alcohol was considerably low. After your first drink you were pleasantly buzzed, and Hakon was pouring you another, making some joke about how you better slow down unless you were prepared for him to swoon a ring on your finger.
“Oh, yeah, right.” Lawan scoffed. “She has standards, you pig.”
“Apparently so.” Hakon shrugged. “Haven't seen a single man on her arm in the years I've known her.”
“Really?” Aiden's brows raised as he held out his glass for Hakon to refill.
You nodded, sipping your drink, feeling a little exposed with the topic of conversation.
“Why? Can't be because no one's asking.”
Now you were the one raising your brows. You and Aiden weren't exactly strangers- you'd met him a handful of times. Hakon introduced the two of you in Trinity, and you helped him a few times with supplies. He was… much less conversational then.
To be fair, he was a man on a mission back then. Now, though? As far as you'd heard, that mission was completed. He had time to sit down and drink and laugh with friends.
Still… it was a little bold.
“Maybe it's because every man around here is either sixty or good for nothing.” Lawan snorted. “I don't blame her. I'm not interested in any of these men either.”
“Oh, really?” Hakon turned to look at her on his left, a brow raised. “And here I thought we were making progress.”
“In your dreams.”
The next hour was more of the same. You drank, joked, and on the occasion that Lawan and Hakon weren't bickering, you actually got to speak to Aiden.
You relished those moments.
Now that you had time to talk to him, you realized he wasn't exactly the hardened, smooth Pilgrim you had thought up in your mind. He wasn't silver tongued and seductive- he was almost boyish.
He was clearly trying to flirt, you surmised that much. He started pouring your drinks for you, made offers to help you repair your glider when you mentioned it didn't stay in the air the way it used to, and somehow found a way to compliment you in a way that was obvious but not at the same time.
He was into you. Aiden was into you. And he didn't know how the fuck to go about it.
You should have expected that. He was a Pilgrim, after all. They never stayed in one place long enough to actually form romantic relationships. And he was young, too. He couldn't have been doing this for more than a decade. There was no way.
He was just as inexperienced and clueless as you. Somehow, that made it better.
“So, Lawan tells me you're training to be a night-runner.” Aiden said as he poured you another drink, shifting forward, his elbow brushing your arm. He didn't move it away until he was done pouring. Your forearm felt like it was burning in the best way imaginable.
“Yeah.” You nodded, giving a soft smile despite your racing heart. “Well, I'm trying. I'm not that good with a grappling hook.”
“Yeah?” He quirked a brow, leaning back as he poured himself another drink. “If you want, I could give you some pointers sometime. I use that thing-”
The words died in his throat and his breath hitched. His eyes flicked down to the spot between your bodies, right where his palm had fully planted on your thigh when he shifted. He jerked it back in his own lap like he'd been burned.
“Shit- sorry.” He muttered, rubbing the back of his neck. He cleared his throat. “I uh, I use that thing- all the time.”
You were still trying to recover from the feeling of that warm callused hand splayed out over your bare thigh. You were suddenly so fucking grateful you'd chosen to wear shorts. Your jeans would have dampened the sensation. The sensation you swore you could still feel even after his hand had left.
“Yeah.” You nodded quickly, trying to pretend you weren't fazed in the slightest. “Yeah. Please. I have no idea what I'm doing with it, really.”
Aiden mirrored your nod, reaching for his glass.
Lawan and Hakon were still arguing about something you weren't paying attention to. Thank God. They hadn't noticed how red Aiden's ears or your cheeks were.
“That's not what he said and you know it!” Lawan groaned, tossing back the rest of her drink. “He said you could use a little help. Which, you did!!!”
“Ah.” Hakon waved her off, rolling his eyes. “I didn't need any help.”
A minute passed. Aiden was still silent.
You could feel the heat coming off him in waves, no doubt a result of whatever alternating had been done to his biology by Waltz and those inhibitors he popped like candy. You could feel his knee slowly spread out towards you and bump against yours. You could feel the way he didn't move it away.
You took a shaky sip of your drink with your left hand, and with your right, you reached under the table. Your hand came to rest on the sleeve of his jacket, right above his wrist.
He stiffened, but said nothing.
You slid your hand down to his and wrapped your fingers around it, scooted closer until your thigh pressed against his, and pulled.
He let you pull his hand off of his bouncing knee and place it back on your thigh.
For a second, he didn't move. You pulled your hand back and let it rest casually on the table, fingers picking at the splintering wood. You forced a smile and a nod when Lawan looked at you after saying something you didn't understand.
Then, finally, his hand relaxed. His fingers gently curled to form around the curve of your thigh, simply resting there like he was holding the armrest of a couch.
You closed your eyes and savored the moment.
“Right, Aiden?” Hakon's voice had your eyes reluctantly opening.
Aiden blinked. “What?”
He raised his brows. “I said it was a good thing we went out for that convoy yesterday. Those rations came in handy.”
Aiden blinked again like he was trying to translate gibberish. His eyes flicked to you at his side for a brief second before he finally nodded. “Yeah. Haven't had booze this clean in years.”
“It's better than whatever the hell they usually serve in here.” Lawan nodded to the bar, pouring herself another drink. That girl could put it down. If you'd had as much as she had drank tonight, you'd be blacked out an hour ago.
After another vague agreement from Aiden, Hakon spoke directly to Lawan again, reminiscing on some vintage wine they shared one night ages ago.
You were almost content just having Aiden's hand on you. Then, after what felt like forever, his thumb started moving. A little hesitant stroke, back and forth twice, like he was testing to see what you'd let him do.
You looked over at him and offered a small smile. “How have you been since I saw you last?”
His eyes snapped over to you and his thumb stilled for a second. Then his fingers flexed, and his thumb started moving again. Slow little strokes that made it hard to stay still.
“Busy.” His voice came out almost husky. It made your stomach flip. He cleared his throat and spoke again. “Pretty busy. But uh… got some stuff taken care of. Now… now I've got more downtime than I know what to do with.”
You knew what he could do with that downtime.
Wait, was that an offer? An invitation? You eyed him for a moment, studying his gaze. His jaw was tight and he couldn't maintain eye contact for more than a few seconds, but you couldn't read more than that.
“Well. If you're serious about helping me with the grappling… that might take up a lot of your free time.” You felt your cheeks burning. “I'm really bad with it.”
His eyes scanned down your face, lingering at your lips before meeting your gaze again.
His hand slipped up your thigh until his fingertips brushed against the hem of your shorts. Your breath hitched and your eyelids fluttered, trying to shut on their own. You forced them back open.
“Yeah. I'm serious.” He murmured. “But, you'll- you might need to be a little patient with me. Never really gave parkour lessons before.”
All you could do was nod when you felt his thumb start stroking again.
He kept his hand there for a while, thumb brushing uneven strokes back and forth on the inside of your upper thigh, each pass upwards bumping against the hem of your shorts.
Your skin was burning. You were drinking like a fish, desperate for courage, hoping it would make you a little bolder. He obviously liked you making that move, putting his hand on your thigh, so he would like it if you made another move, right?
Right?
There was only one way to find out.
Your lips tingled. You ran your tongue over the bottom one as Lawan told you about her morning. Hakon was getting another bottle from the stash he left in Lawan's place and it was growing increasingly difficult to pay attention.
“That sounds awful.” You murmured, setting your glass on the table with a soft clink. Your hand came back down on top of Aidens.
His thumb stopped moving.
“It fucking was.” Lawan laughed. “I can't even tell you how goddamn awful it was.”
Your fingers flexed over his for a beat, hesitation making you freeze. If you pushed his hand up any higher than this, you risk crossing a line. You were in public, after all, sitting at a table with your friends, in a bar surrounded by people.
Aiden crossed the line before you could pull back. His hand slowly slid up the inside of your thigh, settling right between your legs, and he paused.
He was waiting for you to pull his hand away.
You glanced at him beside you and slid your hand off his. You let it rest on the table again.
His nostrils flared and he blinked like he wasn't expecting you to just accept that. He looked at Lawan, who was pouring the last of the bottle in her glass, none the wiser.
He leaned in slightly, dramatically reaching for his glass, and murmured under his breath, his lips barely moving, “You… you sure?” His eyes burned into yours as he angled his body towards you, shielding his face from Lawan across the table for a brief moment.
You bit your lip to keep from smiling, not looking at him. You nodded.
He let out an exhale, leaning back in his seat, holding his empty glass. His face was flushed, eyes locked on the table in front of him, and his fingers started moving again. His movements were awkward, but eager, as if he couldn't believe he was actually doing this.
You parted your thighs a little wider.
Aiden swallowed hard and slipped the tip of his index finger under the hem of your shorts. You shifted in your seat, angling your hips better, allowing him to push that index finger a little higher.
It brushed against the edge of your panties and stilled. You could feel him glancing at you. Your face felt like it was on fire. You bit the inside of your cheek and forced a laugh when Lawan said something funny.
He traced the edge for a moment, his eyes locked on you, unaware of how he looked to everyone else. He was blatantly staring at you, and it didn't look like he gave a shit if you knew or not. If Lawan looked at him for more than a second she'd certainly say something.
When his finger finally brushed over the damp fabric over your core and felt how wet you were he made the tiniest choked sound in the back of his throat.
Hakon had sat back down and refilled your glasses. Aiden pulled his gaze away from you and willed himself to answer a question he hadn't fully heard.
You couldn't do this.
This was way too much.
What the fuck were you thinking? This was wrong. You barely knew Aiden. Yeah, he made your heart flutter just from looking at you in passing but-
His finger dragged slowly along your slit through the fabric, pressing enough to make your stomach drop. You covered the way your breathing grew ragged by taking a deep sip from your glass.
He froze again, his eyes flicking to you in a silent, flustered question. He looked equally panicked and starving.
You bit the inside of your cheek to bite back a moan when his finger hooked under your panties to actually feel you.
Beside you, Aiden let out a shuddery breath. You were so fucking wet. His finger stroked you for a brief moment, simply feeling the extent of your wetness. It was enough to surprise even you- you could feel the way his fingertip slid through your slick folds with no resistance. You were soaked.
Aiden scooted an inch closer. He placed his right elbow on the table, angling his body in a way that was almost shielding you from Lawan and Hakon's view, and turned to face you directly.
His pupils were blown black. He looked seconds away from doing something really, really stupid.
He opened his mouth and spoke, his voice coming out in a hushed tone only you could hear over Lawan's laughter. “I- fuck. I can't…” He muttered under his breath, his eyes falling from yours as he reluctantly pulled his hand out from between your thighs.
Your heart dropped. Fuck. No, no, no-
“Alright, guys, I'm gonna go take a look at her paraglider before it gets too late.”
You let out a breath of relief and blinked away the terror that had just gripped you at the thought of Aiden not finishing what he'd started.
“What?” Lawan looked up at you as you awkwardly stood from the table. You tried to casually adjust your shorts. “It's not even midnight!”
“Let them go.” Hakon spoke up, nursing his seventh glass. “You know that kind of work takes all night.”
“What?! All night-” Lawan furrowed her brows, her gaze snapping to Aiden as he stood up behind you, adjusting the front of his jacket to hide how obviously hard he was. Her brows shot up. “Oh.”
Her gaze met yours and her entire face lit up.
You felt both proud and humiliated at the same time. “Goodnight, Lawan. Thank you for inviting me out.”
“Uh-huh. Of- of course.” She grinned in disbelief.
You knew neither of them had no idea Aiden Caldwell just practically finger-fucked you under the table in front of them, but you still felt like you'd been caught. As far as they knew, Aiden was taking you to his place to put the moves on you.
Little did they know you'd done that for him an hour ago.
Aiden opened up the doors for you like a perfect gentleman while his movements and expression screamed anything but. He led you down the stairs, to the right, passing a few other runners and survivors with curt nods and tight smiles.
It was only about thirty seconds to his place, that shack right on the edge of the Fish Eye, but it felt like you just walked across Villedor.
You'd been in here once before a few weeks ago. You had brought him a pair of shoes Hakon sent over. It didn't look like this, though. He had a couch and an end table now. And an actual bed- a twin sized mattress on a bedframe. No more sleeping bags and wooden pallets. The room was lit purple with UV and amber from a lantern hanging in the corner.
You were just about to comment on that funny poster with the birds when he closed and locked the door behind you.
He didn't say anything, he just turned to look at you and stepped forward, closing the distance. His right hand came up to caress your cheek and tilt your head up, and then he was pressing his mouth against yours.
It was messy and rushed. He was drawing in ragged breaths through his nose, his lips working yours over like he was getting paid for it.
You sucked in a breath of surprise, your eyes falling shut, and wrapped your arms around his neck. You let him guide you towards his bed, blindly trusting him to walk you backwards until the backs of your knees hit the edge of his mattress.
He parted for a breath.
“Hey?” He exhaled against your wet lips, bright blue eyes scanning over your face. “You're not just doing this cause you're like- drunk, are you?”
You shook your head, your arms still wrapped around his neck. “I'm not drunk.”
Maybe a little.
“Are you sure?” He swallowed hard but guided you to sit down on the bed nonetheless, his hand sliding down your stomach to paw at the button on your shorts. “Cause I think you're really fucking beautiful and-”
You couldn't help but smile. Hearing that from the man you'd crushed on for weeks did something really sweet to you. “Aiden-”
“Okay. Okay.” He let out a breathless laugh and nodded, unbuttoning your shorts. “Sorry.”
“I think you're really beautiful, too.” You admitted as he tugged the fabric down your thighs, kneeling on the floor in front of you. “Or- handsome.”
He grinned up at you, cheeks flushed, and leaned back to shed his jacket. “Yeah?”
You nodded quickly. “Uh-huh.”
His grin widened and he stood back up, looking down at you as he tugged his shirt up over his head. Your eyes immediately locked on his bare torso and scanned it like you were committing it to memory.
“Been thinking about this a long time.” He admitted breathlessly as he fumbled with his belt. “Shit- is that weird? That's weird-”
You shook your head, unbuttoning your own shirt, still looking up at him standing over you. God, he was beautiful. Your mouth watered just from looking at his torso. “No. Not weird.”
His eyes dropped to your chest as you let your shirt fall open. He ran his tongue over his bottom lip, fingers working a little faster. He shoved his pants down his hips and kicked them aside. The outline of his cock straining behind his underwear looked straight up obscene- and he almost looked embarrassed by it.
He made no move to cover it, though. He just climbed onto the tiny bed with you.
You straightened out, laying back until your head hit his pillow, spreading your legs for him to kneel between. His hand slid up your bare thigh again and he was quick to pick up right where he left off.
His fingers were so warm. You shivered as he slid one between your folds again, this time without the burden of panties or jean shorts getting in the way.
He let out a ragged breath through parted lips, his eyes locked on you as he touched you. His movements were a little clumsy, like he wasn't actually sure what he was doing, his actions based on pure need instead of steeze. His thumb brushed over your clit and you failed to bite back a soft moan.
His eyes flicked up to watch you as he repeated the action, thumb sliding over your clit as his middle finger slid down to your entrance. “You're so soft.” His voice was rough. “Nearly lost my fucking mind up there.”
You whimpered, spreading your legs wider for him, and nodded. “Me too.”
He stroked you up and down once more before he stopped and pushed his finger inside. He groaned at the feeling of your tight walls enveloping the digit. He pumped it carefully, his eyes on your face again, desperate to see what kind of expression you'd make.
Your brows pinched together in the middle. You whined behind closed lips, shifting your pelvis up, too horny to care about how greedy you were being.
He tried a few different things- pumping his finger, twisting it a little on the drawback, but it was the curl that got the biggest reaction out of you. He did it once, soft and slow, and you immediately moaned, your eyes falling closed.
He was quick to repeat it, applying more pressure, over and over, and leaned forward over you. He rested his weight on his elbow, his free hand brushing your hair away from your face.
You grabbed onto the bicep next to you and arched into his hand, letting out an almost embarrassingly wanton moan.
His forehead dropped to your shoulder, his breath hot against your neck. “God. You're so wet.” He said it like he was surprised, muttering almost to himself.
He leaned up again and let his free hand touch you, roaming over your body. He cupped your breast, his thumb sliding over your nipple, then slid down to hold your hips steady as he curled his finger faster.
You arched into his touch again and reached up to tangle your fingers in his hair. You pulled him down and kissed him, sliding your tongue in his mouth, swallowing his grunts as he kissed you back.
You were close. Even though his thumb was too eager and he was curling his finger just as excitedly, you'd never felt better.
He broke the kiss to look down at where his finger kept disappearing inside of you. “S’this good?” He rasped, curling his finger a little quicker. “Goddamnit. I've wanted to do this for- fuck. Didn't think I'd ever get to.”
“S’good. Uh-huh.” You shuddered, your voice breaking as you rocked your hips. “Don't stop.”
Aiden groaned. He leaned down and mouthed at your neck, leaving a messy trail of saliva as he kissed down to the top of your breast. His bottom half had shifted until he could grind himself against your leg, mindlessly seeking any friction for his aching cock.
You gasped as you felt your pleasure coming to a head. Aiden glanced up, panting against your chest, and pushed himself back up on his elbow to watch your face.
“Yeah?” He whispered, his voice hoarse. “You gonna come for me like this?”
You nodded quickly, gripping his shoulders to keep you from falling straight through the ground. “Uh-huh-”
He cursed. His fingers kept their hungry pace, one long finger curling inside, his thumb rolling clumsy circles over your clit.
“Fuck… just like that.” He murmured, gripping your hip tighter, shifting his weight on his knees as he worked you through your orgasm. “God, you look so good right now.”
You choked on a sharp moan, digging your nails into his shoulders, clenching your thighs tightly around him. You rocked your hips, grinding against his hand as you came. “Oh, fuck, Aiden- oh, God-”
“Yeah. Yeah.” He groaned, his grip on your hip turning bruising. He rutted against your leg, not even thinking anymore, his body just acting. He didn't let up, he just worked you through it, lips parted in concentration. “Oh, fuck. That's it, Beautiful.”
He didn't stop until your breathing had slowed and you gave a weak, overstimulated whimper and pushed at his wrist. He reluctantly eased his hand out from between your legs, his eyes catching on the way his fingers glistened in the purple light.
He didn't miss a beat, he simply brought them up to his mouth and tasted you, a low groan sounding from deep in his chest.
“Fuck. Sorry.” He said quickly when he realized what he'd just done and let out a shaky breath, looking almost embarrassed. “Was that weird?”
“No. So hot.” You shook your head, reaching up for him. He let you pull him down until he was braced over you again, his elbows digging into the mattress on either side of you.
He kissed you, immediately melting into it, his tongue pushing past your lips. He licked into your mouth as he spread your thighs wider for his broad form with his hands on your knees. His pelvis slotted between your legs like he was made to be there.
He didn't hesitate to press his hips forward, pushing the hard length of him against your sensitive core.
You both moaned at the friction, Aiden’s forehead coming down to rest against your shoulder. His hand fumbled down between your bodies as he suddenly remembered he still had his underwear on. He fought to tug them down, his cock head catching on the elastic, slapping against his stomach when he finally got the fabric past his hips.
You blindly reached for him, wrapping your fingers around his length, your vision obscured by the head currently resting on your collarbones.
Aiden cursed, his hips jerking forward. “Fuck.”
You lifted your hips slightly and lined him up, keeping his tip pressed tightly between your folds as he gave a small, gentle push forward.
You gasped. Fuck. He was thick. The sting was almost too much, but Aiden wasn't as mindlessly feral as he seemed. He didn't slam his hips against yours. He didn't force himself in. He just sat there for a moment, breathing hard against your skin as he waited to feel you relax around his tip.
After a few seconds he gave another small push. Your jaw dropped and you let out a whine, your thighs tensing up around his waist.
“Yeah?” He breathed, the sound shaky in his throat. He rocked his hips, fucking another inch into you before slowly drawing back, coating his tip with you. The next push forward earned him another inch deeper. “Oh- fuck-”
You were in heaven. The stretch was immaculate despite the burn. Maybe it was just the fact that it was Aiden Caldwell stretching you out that made the pain feel good.
“Fuck.” You repeated the word back to him, your hips shifting under him.
He pushed himself up off of you, leaning back on his knees, straightening his back out. He grabbed your hips and pulled you forward, pulling your body another inch up his cock.
The sight of the Pilgrim on his knees between your legs, looking down at you like that with that fucked out look on his face- fuck.
“You okay?” He murmured, sounding winded as he rolled his hips forward.
You tried to answer but all you could do was moan and nod.
He bit his bottom lip, braced his weight on his knees, held you a little tighter by your hips, and pushed in the rest of the way. He bottomed out in one stroke and froze, a raw, ragged moan leaving his mouth.
“Oh my God-” he rasped, immediately shifting back down on his elbows.
“Oh,” you keened, your thighs clenching hard around him. He was so fucking deep you could feel him in your throat. You swallowed hard, sucking in a shaky breath. “Oh, f-fuck-”
He stayed motionless for a moment, his form trembling with the effort it took to hold back. He waited a few seconds before giving a slow, tentative stroke that ended with another groan from him. “Beautiful, you feel- you feel incredible.”
You could only whine in response.
He started slow. Shallow, gentle thrusts that had you melting around him. He slipped his arms under your back to pull you flush against his chest, burying his face in the crook of your neck as he ground his hips against you. The position was so close and intimate it almost made you choke up. He was so close- so deep.
“Been so hard tonight…” He admitted against your neck, his voice ragged and airy. “...thinking about how wet you were. Fuck, you're even wetter on my dick.”
You let out a sinful moan at that. Hearing Aiden talk dirty to you in that deep, rumbling voice of his? It made you clench around him in response.
He noticed immediately, the same way he noticed everything else immediately.
“Yeah?” He breathed.
“Keep talking please.” You whimpered quickly, tightening your thighs around him.
He let out a shaky breath and nodded, dragging his mouth up the side of your neck to plant messy kisses up to your ear. “You're so fucking pretty like this, Beautiful. Been wanting this so bad.”
You groaned.
His thrusts turned longer and faster, each time his hips met yours he'd give a deep, shallow grind that had you quickly unraveling.
“Like that?” He panted under your ear, angling his hips as he snapped them forward until he found the position that made you gasp. “Right there, yeah? Yeah… Fuck, I love the sounds you make.”
You wrapped your arms around his neck and buried your face in his hair, muffling your moans as he fucked them out of you. You were already embarrassingly close again.
Aiden was, too. It was impressive- the way he'd held out after being so hard for the last however long.
“Aiden, oh my God don't-” you choked out, arching hard beneath him, locking your ankles around his waist as your orgasm hit you. “Oh, Aiden, fuck-”
“Oh fuck- yes, come on me-” he gasped, his voice hoarse, his hips pressing forward to grind you through your climax with deep rolls. “Just like that- good girl, fuck, yes-”
You rocked yourself on his cock, clenching around him as the wave washed over you. You tried speaking to him, but what you said wasn't clear. It was some incomprehensible mix of babbling and moaning.
The sound was music to his ears. He groaned at the noises you made and the feeling of you pulsing around him.
“Oh my God- gonna fill you up- you want that, Beautiful?” He begged without begging. He didn't know what he'd do if you said no.
Thankfully, you nodded rapidly. “Please-”
The sound of you pleading for him to come inside you sent him over the edge.
He grabbed onto your ass with two hands and pulled your hips up, angling you to take him even deeper, and drove into you with the power he'd been holding back. It was enough to render you a limp, thoughtless, moaning mess of yourself.
Each vicious thrust ripped a moan from both of you. Sweat beaded on his forehead. His tip jabbed against that sweet spot each time he snapped his hips forward and bottomed out.
Then, finally, his thrusts grew sloppy.
“Shit-” he choked, “I'm- fuck, Beautiful, oh, fuck-” he slammed forward one last time, burying himself as deep as he could possibly go and held the position.
A broken, guttural moan tore itself from his throat. He buried his face in the crook of your neck again, his entire body locking up and shuddering. “Oh,” he groaned loudly, “-good girl, take it, f-fuck- just like that.”
You were still feeling the aftershocks of your own orgasm when he started grinding himself through his, holding you tight against him as he filled you. Each tight grind had him fucking his cum deeper inside you, and even when the last pulse of it faded, he refused to move.
He stayed like that for a while. Face buried in your neck, arms slipping around your form to keep you flush against him. Every few seconds his hips would give a weak roll like he was trying to drag it out for as long as you'd let him.
Finally, he lifted his head. He was still panting, dazed and sweaty as he looked down at you with something akin to pride.
“Jesus Christ…” he exhaled. “That was- fuck. Came so hard think I passed out for a second.”
You laughed, the sound weak and breathless.
He managed a crooked grin. He gave a gentle kiss to your jaw, and then your lips, finally pushing himself up off of you.
Carefully, very carefully, he lifted and pushed your leg over him so he could keep himself buried inside you as he turned you over onto your side. He grabbed one of his messy blankets and pulled it over your bodies, settling in behind you, and wrapped an arm over your waist.
He buried his face in the back of your hair and inhaled a long, steadying breath.
You closed your eyes. You could fall asleep like this.
Before you had the chance to, though, Aiden's voice, thick with his own sleepiness, spoke up.
“I should clean you up, shouldn't I?” He murmured against the back of your neck before planting a kiss there. “Fuck. I don't wanna move.”
“Then don't.” You hummed, your voice raw. “Just stay here another minute.”
He hummed in response and let out a heavy, satisfied sigh. His breathing had finally slowed behind you.
A few moments later, he spoke up again.
“I'm still serious about the paraglider.” He whispered. “And the grappling hook. That's not… that's not weird, right?”
Kyle Crane x f!Reader Smut: Come on, Try a Little Bit
Warnings: Unprotected sex, play struggling, slight dubcon(simulated in a self defense scenario)
Summary: Your father asks Kyle Crane, his best friend, to teach you some self defense moves in case you run into any of Rais' men or bandits. You think you're ready to go out on your own, so Kyle shows you exactly how not ready you are.
Notes: Also posted on my Ao3 LadyBoltonToYou
They were drunk when they suggested it.
“I know you're all grown up baby, I know-” your father sighed after you'd pointed out you were old enough to go out on your own, “-but that's not gonna stop me from worrying about you.”
“I'm not gonna go looking for fights or something dad, I just wanna go out.” You complained.
“Fights don't care if you're looking for them.” Kyle added in, defending your father with that annoying brotherly loyalty they shared. “They don't care how fast you are either. Once someone has their arms around you out there, it doesn't matter how sneaky or fast you think you are.”
You rolled your eyes. “I know how to get out of a grapple. I'm not stupid.”
“No one's saying you're stupid, baby.” Your father said. He cracked open another two beers for him and Kyle. “And you might think you know how to, but once it actually happens, it's a different story.”
“You think you know how to get out of a grapple?” Kyle snorted. He stood from your couch and set his fresh beer on the end table. “Come here and prove it. If you can get out of this chokehold, I'm sure your daddy will let you go out whenever the hell you want. Isn't that right, Holt?”
Your father nodded. He looked a little smug.
You felt a wave of uncertainty but pushed it away and walked over to Kyle. He put his hands on your shoulders and turned you around, wrapping one arm loosely around your shoulders from behind before he leaned in. When he spoke you could smell the beer and faint smell of cigarettes on his breath. You could also smell his aftershave, something that made your brain short circuit for a moment before you snapped out of it and grabbed onto his forearm. “Tap out if you give up.” He grinned. He already knew how it would play out, and that made you fight even harder.
Kyle's grip was iron tight. No matter what you did- squirming, going limp, kicking and swatting- he didn't budge. He moved with you, absorbing your energy like a sponge. His body moved away from your rear kicks and swats. He even started chuckling at one point, making a joke to your father you couldn't hear over the ringing in your ears. You tapped out.
Kyle released his hold on you instantly. “You good?”
You nodded reluctantly, cheeks burning with embarrassment. “Yeah.”
Kyle returned the nod and gave your shoulder a pat. He picked his beer back up and sat back down. “Sorry, kid. Looks like your chaperones aren't going anywhere anytime soon.”
“Why don't you teach her a little, Crane?” He swigged his beer. “Rais is dead. You're over here most weekends anyway. Hell, I'll even pay you.”
Kyle rubbed the back of his neck. “I, uh… I guess I could. But uh- you don't need to pay me, brother. You've saved my ass more times than I can count. It's about time I did something around here besides drink your beer and watch your movies.”
“Yeah? How's that sound, baby? You want Crane to show you how it's done?”
Both men looked at you.
You nodded quickly, half out of desperation to prove yourself capable of going on runs by yourself, half because the idea of Kyle Crane training you in close combat made your heart race.
Ever since Kyle dropped into Harran months ago you'd had a massive crush on him. He was everything a man should be- strong, capable, intelligent, and he could make you laugh without even trying. Not to mention how devastatingly handsome he was. When he was exhausted or drunk his eyes would take on this dark, half-lidded look that made your face flush. You thought about those eyes more than you'd ever admit.
Your first session was a little awkward. Kyle wasn't drunk anymore, and it took place in the afternoon. He was rarely at your house before the sun went down. You had rarely ever seen each other in natural lighting. Your father let you use the room upstairs he'd converted into a gym a few months ago. Kyle moved all the weights and equipment to the sides of the room, covered the floor in mats, and threw open the windows.
“Smells like a sweaty ass man in here.” He joked.
“You're just now noticing what happens when you walk in a room?” Your father shot back. He stayed in the room for the entire session, backseat teaching as he watched and ate his lunch.
You hadn't picked the right clothes for this kind of training. Your jeans felt too tight, too restricting, and you had to keep readjusting your blouse to keep the sleeves from falling off your shoulders. It made each grapple stiff and awkward, adding to the already stiff and awkward air between you and Kyle.
He kept glancing back at your father like he expected him to say something about how close he was getting to you. At one point he had you in a full nelson, your entire body flush against his, his breath hot against your ear. It was an extremely intimate position, and even you felt like it was a bit much, especially with your father sitting on the weight bench watching the two of you like a hawk.
"Careful, Crane..." Your father said.
Kyle released you so fast you almost fell over.
“-you're making me want to take up wrestling again.”
You could practically feel the way Kyle relaxed. He let out a short laugh that was more relieved than amused. “Hey, I'm always taking clients.”
“Yeah, well. This one isn't as small as your usual clientele.” Your father chuckled. “Might have a little more trouble with ‘em.”
“I don't know. This one's already kicking my ass.” Kyle threw you a playful smirk that was almost private. You smiled back, resisting the urge to tuck your hair behind your ear like some cliche schoolgirl having their crush talk to them.
The session ended after an hour, and Kyle almost looked relieved for it. You tried to pretend like that didn't sting a bit and thanked him for his help.
“Yeah, of course. Same time tomorrow. Wear something you can actually move around in, though.” He winked playfully. “Can't use your legs in denim like that. They're too restricting, as good as they-” he paused, glancing at your father, “-as comfortable as they are.”
Same time tomorrow? He wanted to do this again. ‘As good as they’ what? What was he going to say? As good as they look? You knew there was no way he'd say something like that to you- Kyle saw you like an annoying niece he had to babysit most of the time. In an affectionate way, of course, but it didn't change the fact he treated you like blood.
Still, you liked to imagine he was about to compliment the way your legs looked in your jeans.
You dreamed about the way he held you in that grapple all night. The feel of his firm, warm body flush behind yours, that thick bicep of his locked around your throat, the exact same as the position he'd held you in that day, minus your jeans. Minus his pants.
It was hard to look him in the eyes when he came over the next day. He greeted you with a nod as he passed by you in the living room to go find your father, and you barely managed to give him a small smile in return.
Your father called you up to the gym twenty minutes later. You all but ran up to join them, tying your hair up in a ponytail as you walked in. “Hi.” You exhaled, smoothing down your tank top.
Kyle's eyes flicked away from your father and landed on you in the doorway. They scanned over your outfit, taking it in; you wore athletic leggings this time along with a fitting tank top. You'd be able to move freely without worrying about your clothes lifting or slipping anymore.
He gave an appreciative shrug of his mouth and nodded. “That's better. You ready?” You nodded. “Good. We're gonna practice full scenarios today. The kind of shit you'd need to fight for your life to get out of.”
You nodded again. You were more determined, not only to prove to your father you could handle yourself, but you wanted to impress Kyle now, too. You needed to hear him tell you you'd done a good job. You needed to prove to him that you weren't the annoying, helpless little kid he treated you like.
He got you in a full nelson again, his grip lighter than the day before, like he was scared to get too close again. It didn't stop you from smelling his aftershave though, and if you weren't mistaken, you caught a whiff of something new- cologne. You let yourself linger in his hold for a few seconds longer than necessary so you had an excuse to enjoy the smell of him behind you.
You could tell your father's presence was making Kyle hesitant. Each time he'd get you in a close hold, you'd feel or see him glance towards your dad sitting on the bench, and then he'd put another inch between your bodies.
It was starting to really frustrate the hell out of you.
When you tried another hold, a standing rear naked choke, you felt something that made you freeze. Kyle's body was hot, flush against your back, every muscle tense. You could feel how damp his shirt was with sweat through your athletic tank top, and through your leggings you could feel something far more interesting than sweat.
He had a semi.
You only felt it for a heartbeat, right against the top of your ass, before he jerked back with a curse under his breath.
“Get some water.” He breathed, wiping the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand. “You're doing good. Damn good.”
You beamed despite the flush on your face from what you just felt against your ass. “Thanks!”
“Crane, you up for babysitting?” Your father suddenly asked. You'd almost forgotten he was there. “Lottie just radioed in. She needs help at the University.”
Kyle nodded, still breathing through his mouth as he caught his breath. “Yeah, I could. You don't want me to come with?”
You glanced at Kyle, still sipping your water, your cheeks still burning a bright red. You caught him looking at you and his eyes immediately snapped back to your father.
“You can if you want to.” He shrugged, stretching. “But it's boring work, figured you'd wanna stay here and drink my beer and watch my movies. She got Troy some parts for that doohickey she's building and she wants help hauling it up there.”
You crossed your fingers that Kyle would reject the offer and stay here with you. He was two minutes of friction away from having a hard-on, why the hell would he offer to go with your father when he could stay here? Alone? With you? Judging by the way his body reacted to yours and the way he couldn't meet your gaze without looking away was starting to lead you to believe he was attracted to you too. Which shouldn't be a big surprise- you're gorgeous.
Kyle's eyes flicked towards you and he held them there for a fraction of a second before he looked away again.
“I could use the cardio.”
Your heart sank. That hurt more than you expected.
You only had to sulk for a day before your third session with Kyle made you completely forget about the way he kinda blew you off the day before. Your father was completely absent the entire time, having gone up to the Tower early that morning to help Troy and your mother work on whatever it was they were working on together.
“Twist towards the thumb.” Kyle corrected you in that low focused tone that drove you crazy. “Stop pulling straight back like an idiot. Use your whole body.”
You gritted your teeth and tried again, struggling in Kyle's grasp. He took your father's ‘don't go easy on her’ very seriously. You'd only been able to successfully get out of a handful of his grapples, and most of that was dumb luck.
Behind you, he made a small noise of discomfort and released the hold he had on you with his right hand. You pushed back, using your momentum to throw him off balance. He grunted in surprise and fell backwards.
You pounced on him like a tiger. You grabbed his wrists and extended his elbow like he taught you, craning his arm up in an uncomfortable position that successfully had him hissing in pain.
You were so thrilled at the fact that you'd pinned down Kyle Crane on your own that you didn't even notice you were sitting right in his lap until his hips shifted. A single, almost imperceptible movement, his torso flexed as his pelvis twitched upwards on instinct. Your grip on his wrists tightened unintentionally at the movement, and he bared his teeth at the sting in his shoulder.
His hips moved again, the shift a lot more noticeable this time. His not-so-semi semi was also a lot more noticeable.
Now your face was red from more than just exertion.
So was his.
“I did it,” you exhaled, “holy shit, I did it!”
“Good job.” His jaw was clenched. “Damn good job, kid. Now would you get off me?”
You blushed harder and released his wrists, climbing off of him. In the process you were able to vividly feel how worked up the position had gotten him.
Kyle rose to his feet and turned away to grab his water bottle. He drank deeply, his throat bobbing, sunlight from the windows reflecting off the beads of sweat dripping down his neck. You swallowed hard and licked your dry lips.
“That's enough for today.” He sighed after he screwed the cap back on. “Gotta hand it to you… I'm impressed. You're a quick learner.”
“You're just a good teacher.” You smiled, internally cringing at how soft your voice came out.
He glanced back at you at the sound, those brown eyes drifting over your form before he realized what he was doing and snapped his gaze away. He cleared his throat and turned away from you fully to adjust himself, something you knew he was doing regardless of what position he stood in.
“I'm starving. Why don't you whip us up a sandwich or something, kid?” He tried to sound nonchalant and failed. “Can be my payment.”
“I thought this was on the house.” You teased.
“It is. For your father.” He managed to look back at you and give a playful wink. “You still owe me.”
You returned the wink with a playful eye roll and grabbed your water. “Sure. Come on.”
Two sandwiches turned into two more sandwiches after four hours. Then four hours turned into two more sandwiches after seven hours. Your father had radioed in to tell Kyle he wouldn't be able to make it back to the house tonight, and asked him to stay there with you.
Kyle would have stayed the night anyway. It was Friday. He always stayed over on Fridays.
It started with getting him a beer after the sun started going down. Then you had one for yourself. Then you put on a movie he picked out and sat on the couch beside him. Then you got two more beers, then two more after that-
By midnight you were both thoroughly tipsy and pleased with yourselves.
“Do you really think I'm doing good, Kyle?” You slurred, looking over at him by your side. “Like, actually? Or are you just saying that because you're friends with my dad.”
Kyle rolled his head to the side with an amused smirk and a raised brow. “Really, kid? You're gonna get all, validation hungry on me now? Yes, I think you're doing good. No, I'm not just saying that.”
Your heart fluttered and you smiled like an idiot. “Really?”
He chuckled and took a deep swig of his beer. “Yeah. Really. You're smart. Should eat more, though. Felt like I was lifting a damn cat when I picked you up in there. You're way too easy to manhandle.”
Something about the word manhandle coming from Kyle Crane in referral to you had your heart beating faster. You bit back a giggle and looked away, back to the TV screen. “Maybe you're just way too strong.”
“Yeah? Never had a girl tell me that before.” He grinned.
“Am I really that easy to manhandle?”
He looked a bit caught off guard by your question, his grin faltering for a moment before he responded. “Kid, if you ever had to really fight me, and I mean really, I'd have you on your face in three seconds flat. Probably less.”
Your eyes lit up at his words. You straightened slightly. “Wanna bet? I think- I think I'm pretty good at this stuff now. I think you'll be surprised.”
His brows shot up in amusement and he smirked. “Yeah? You think so?”
That's how you ended up in a chokehold on your living room floor in three seconds flat. The room was still spinning when you realized what had happened- one second you were standing, bracing for his charge, the next you were on your side with his arm around your neck, his leg hooked between yours to keep you from kicking.
There wasn't anything you could do. He had you completely defenseless, the angle making moving your arms nearly impossible. All you could do was grip onto the arm clenched around your neck and squirm.
“Yeah?” He breathed against your ear, the smell of beer and tobacco mixing well with his cologne. “Hate to break it to you, sweetheart, but I'm not very surprised.”
You grimaced. “It's not fair, I'm f-fucking drunk and you didn't give me a warning.”
Not that you were complaining… you rather liked the situation you'd found yourself in.
“Oh, no warning? You poor thing.” He huffed and flexed his arm, increasing the pressure around your throat just a fraction. “That's how this works. Out there, they don't care if you're drunk. Infected don't give warnings. Those bandits and soldiers don't either.”
He hooked his leg tighter around yours and pushed his body over yours, flipping you onto your stomach on the rug, his full weight settling on top of you, arm still locked around your neck.
“F-fuck-” your breath caught. White heat shot through your body, along with sharp jolts of arousal through your core. You clenched around nothing at the feeling of his heavy body practically crushing you flat on the floor, your head tilted to the side so you wouldn't suffocate.
“You know how fucked you'd be if one of Rais’ men had you like this?” His voice sounded surprisingly unsteady behind your ear, a sound you'd never heard come from his mouth before. “Show me what you'd do to get out.”
You were too busy melting under him to process what he'd said. You blinked, your eyes blurry and unfocused. All you could see was the bottom of the couch beside you. You wiggled under him, the only thing you could do in your position, and let out a whine of exertion before giving up with a heavy sigh.
Kyle laughed. “Yeah. I'm so surprised, sweetheart. Fucking shocked.”
You mumbled something not even you could understand and wiggled again, bracing your feet off the floor in an attempt to shrimp him off of you.
“I told you, didn't I? You're not ready. You're not-”
That movement only succeeded in you grinding your ass against his already hard cock. A movement that surprised even you- your eyes snapped open and your entire body went still.
Kyle froze on top of you, the words he was trying to say dying in his throat. You could hear his breath catch and turn into a groan deep in his throat he barely managed to cut off.
You whimpered. You were a fucking mess. Not just from the alcohol, but literally- you were soaked. For half a second you were worried you'd just started your period until you remembered what day of the month it was. Your core was on fire, your clit was throbbing, your walls ached. You'd just rubbed your ass against Kyle Crane. You might have just ruined your entire friendship with the most important man in Harran. Your heart dropped as your walls clenched.
And then Kyle had to go and say what he said next.
“Try again.” He breathed against your ear, his voice barely above a shaky whisper.
Without missing a beat you obeyed, bracing your feet on the floor again to push your hips up. You could feel him clearly the second time, the thick length of him grinding right against you through the layers of clothing. Your eyes fluttered shut and your body went limp again under the overwhelming arousal coursing through you.
Kyle shuddered, his breath hot on the back of your neck as he exhaled. “Fuck.” The word was barely audible. Then, much clearer, “That's better. Again.”
Your mind was simultaneously racing and empty. Kyle Crane was lying on top of you, pining you to the ground in a chokehold, telling you to keep grinding your ass against his erection. His very impressive erection.
You did it again. Slower.
Kyle groaned low in his chest. His hips pushed down to meet your grind this time, making you feel exactly how hard he was for you. His free arm slid under your body, settling under your hips to keep them propped up higher than the rest of you, and pushed his hips down again.
You whined something you didn't remember saying, squirming in his hold.
“Doing real good.” He murmured. You pushed up against him in response to the praise, a high whine leaving your throat. He groaned again, his forehead falling to rest against the back of your neck. “That's it. So good, kid.”
You don't know what happened to have him snap like he did a moment later. The last thing you remembered was moaning his name when he rutted against you a third time and then something in him shifted. He got real quiet, real still, and climbed off of you.
You remembered being upset. Really upset. You'd had too much to drink and he'd worked you up and then stopped like it was nothing.
He made some out of breath excuse about needing to go outside, looking around the room like he'd just realized where he was. Like a cornered animal. You stared at him in disbelief, wet and aching for him, and asked him not to go.
He looked at you for a moment with a look somewhere between guilt and poorly veiled lust.
Apparently, the guilt won.
After Kyle had left the next morning, you were hit with a burst of motivation to prove you could handle yourself. In hindsight, it was a stupid idea. An incredibly, undoubtedly, monumentally stupid idea.
But… you were sad. You were lonely. You felt rejected and blah, blah-blah. The man you had the biggest crush on inadvertently told you he doesn't think you're cut out for the real world.
What were your exact intentions going out that morning? You don't even really remember. You think you wanted to go get supplies or something to prove that you were indeed cut out for this world.
What did you get instead? One very disappointed father, and one very, very pissed off Crane.
They'd found you before things could escalate. They killed Rais' men and dragged you home, your father lecturing you in that loud angry father tone that always made you shrink ten sizes. Kyle didn't say a word. Not a damn word. That made you shrink ten more sizes.
“What the hell were you thinking?” Your father said as the front door closed- no, slammed- behind you from Kyle's heavy hand. “What if we weren't nearby when that happened, you ever think of that?”
“I would've been fine!” You defended. “I know how to defend myself. Kyle said-”
“I said you were good.” Kyle cut you off immediately, his voice rising to a tone you'd never heard from him before. He sounded genuinely furious with you, even more so than your father, who was mostly just scared. “But good doesn't fucking cut it, kid.”
“I can't deal with this right now. Your mother and Troy need my help now. I don't have time to make sure you don't get yourself killed.” Your father snatched his jacket from the rack by the door you'd just come in through. “Crane, make sure she doesn't leave. Chain her to the fucking wall if you have to, I don't care.”
“Yeah.” Kyle muttered. His eyes were locked on you. “I might just do that.” You felt the hair on the back of your neck stand up. “Teach her a lesson she might actually learn.”
Your father cursed and looked back at you with an expression of clear disappointment. It made you feel small, it made you feel like a fucking idiot. The door slammed behind him so hard the frame rattled.
You couldn't look at Kyle. You turned towards the stairs, but that voice shouting your name had you freezing in your tracks. You slowly turned around, taking a steadying breath.
“I would have been fine.” You sputtered out before he could say anything else. “I had it handled, I was doing fine-”
“Fine?” Kyle's voice cut through your lies like a blade. He took three steps towards you, stopping two feet away from you. “You were surrounded by four of Rais' men. That asshole might be dead, but they're still carrying out his will. One of them had a gun drawn on you. I saw it.”
Kyle was seething.
“We were close enough to hear it, too. Heard exactly what they said they were gonna do with you when they dragged you back to their camp.” His chest was heaving. His eyes were blazing. You'd never seen Kyle look so angry. So alive.
He ran a hand over his face like he just realized the same. He opened his eyes and they were a fraction calmer. “I told you, good isn't good enough. Not out there. Not with men like that.”
“But the other day I-”
“You think because you pinned me that means you're ready to go solo?” He barked a laugh, but there was no amusement behind it. “That's not how this shit works!”
He was yelling at you. Kyle was yelling at you.
“I'm not helpless!” You tried not to cry. “I've been practicing. You said I was improving fast! I would have gotten out of it. I knew what I was doing.” There was no truth behind your last words. You knew it. He knew it. “I would have gotten out of it.”
Kyle didn't say anything for a long minute. He just looked at you with a clenched jaw and something dangerous flashing in his eyes. Something that made you feel like the cornered animal he acted like the night before.
He closed the distance with one step and grabbed you. It happened so fast you barely even registered what was happening. He snatched your wrist and yanked it behind your back, his other arm wrapping around your throat in a painfully tight chokehold.
“Get out of it.” He gritted out between clenched teeth, jerking your arm harder, pulling out a cry from your throat. “Come on. Get out of it.”
You tried to sweep his legs. He didn't even sway. You tried for his ribs with your free hand but he simply adjusted his torso to the side and avoided you. You tried forcing him to post- nothing.
“Kyle-”
“There's no fucking Kyle out here.” He hissed. “How are you going to get out of it?”
You barely managed to tuck your chin and sink your teeth into his forearm.
He released you, but only long enough to knock your legs out from underneath you. He pulled you to the ground and into another RNC, but this time he was the one lying on the floor. He wrapped his arm around your neck again, keeping your back pressed flush against his chest, and locked both legs around yours, pinning you completely against him.
“You think you could have handled it?” He snarled, his voice low and furious beside your ear. You could barely hear it over the blood rushing in them. “Show me.”
You tried again. You bucked and twisted, trying to get him on his side so you could shrimp out, but his legs wrapped around yours kept your bottom half useless. For about thirty seconds you gave him a real fight, struggling as hard as you could, your heart hammering painfully in your chest.
Kyle barely moved.
Only when you finally relented and went limp with a defeated whimper did he loosen his grip on your neck just enough for you to properly breathe again.
When he spoke, his voice dropped to a rough, angry whisper that sent a shiver down your spine. “You couldn't even stop me. And I'm trying real fucking hard not to hurt you.”
“I could-”
He cut you off with an irritated noise deep in his throat. “You're still not taking this seriously, are you? Do you have any fucking idea what those bastards would have done to you?”
“I-”
“Do you have any fucking idea how easy it would be for me to do whatever the fuck I wanted right now?” He continued. “I'm one man. There were four of them.”
You knew it wasn't the right time, but you couldn't help but feel a jolt of arousal in your lower stomach at his words. Whatever the fuck I wanted. Your heart rate quickened as flashes of what that could mean to him ran through your mind.
“If we weren't there, they would have dragged you off somewhere nice and quiet, and nothing you could do would have stopped them.” He growled. “Nothing.”
Part of you struggled to accept his words as the truth. The scenario felt impossible to you. You could have done something, right? You could have… you could have done something.
“You still think you're ready?” He continued again, his voice lower, quieter. “Because I'm five seconds away from proving how not-fucking-ready you are. I'll show you exactly what would've happened if we weren't there.”
Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck-
“Show me-” you managed, “-s-show me how to get out.”
Kyle didn't respond for a quiet moment. Then, out of nowhere, he laughed. It was breathless, but it didn't lack amusement. He genuinely thought what you'd just said was funny. That irritated you.
“I thought you could handle it?” He grinned, his legs tightening around yours like a constricting serpent. “Why don't you show me how you'd handle yourself if I wasn't there?”
Before you could ask what he meant, he released the lock he had around your neck. He kept one arm wrapped there, holding your upper half tight against him, but his now free left hand settled on your stomach.
His fingers spread wide, splaying across the front of your tank top. You could feel how hot his hands were through the thin fabric, his palms still damp with sweat from bludgeoning Rais' men to death with his tire iron. You didn't move, not daring to risk breaking the moment, as his hand slid down to the waistband of your pants.
You were wearing the joggers he'd brought you yesterday. The black ones with a billion pockets. They were unflattering as fuck; baggy and loose around your hips, but Kyle had given them to you. For a split second you felt guilty wearing them out of a mission you should have known he'd throttle you for, that was until his hand slid lower.
“I said… show me.” He repeated in a low, even tone. “Or is this what you'd do? Huh? You'd let those animals touch you like this?”
You tried to shake your head but his bicep kept your head locked firmly in place. You grabbed his hand with shaky fingers, gripping tight, and pulled.
It didn't budge, not even a little. In fact, it moved down the outside of your pants even quicker, fingertips brushing your mound over the thick black fabric.
At this point you didn't want to pull him away.
“I tell you what…” he muttered, his fingers inching lower, “if you can get out of this hold, I'll talk to your old man about it. Soften him up a little for you. I'll even start taking you on runs with me. Yeah? How's that sound?”
Talk about motivation.
You yanked his hand as hard as you could, successfully pulling it up a few inches, and twisted your hips to the side.
You were able to free one leg. Your heart raced. You braced your free foot on the floor and pushed your hips up, freeing the other leg. Yes, yes! Yes-
Kyle simply rolled with you and yanked you back by his arm still around your neck. He hooked his legs over yours, pining them under his, and pulled you flush against his front. You were in the same exact position- his arm around your neck, his legs around yours, his free hand sliding down your stomach.
“Not good enough.” He said simply. His fingers dipped between the thighs he kept pried open. He took his time, and he was devastatingly gentle about it.
Until he wasn't.
He cupped you over your pants and pulled you tighter against him by his hold there, applying a dizzying amount of pressure to your pussy with his entire hand. The same hand that had snapped a man's neck not two hours ago.
You choked on a gasp and panic shot through you. You tried to pull at his wrist again but the second your hands left his arm he squeezed your neck tighter, cutting off oxygen to your brain. Your hands shot back up, digging your nails into his bicep. He released the pressure on your throat and you sucked in a breath.
You went for his hand again. He squeezed his arm again, much harder, cutting off a tiny yelp in the back of your throat. You pulled your hand off of his wrist.
It was hard not to panic. You couldn't use your hands. Your legs? You kicked your shoes off and tried to slip them out of his hooked legs, but even with yours being thinner than his, you were unable to free them.
“You're running out of time.” He grunted in your ear as you jerked against him. “If I was one of those men I'd be moving a hell of a lot faster than this. Fight. Fight harder.”
His hand pressed harder between your legs, grinding firmly against you through your pants. The pressure was overwhelming and inescapable. Every time you tried to shift or buck your hips his hand would simply follow, his arm effortlessly bending and stretching to keep his hand right where it was.
You clawed at his forearm and bicep, dug your feet back into the rug, and threw your hips up in a desperate attempt at creating space.
For a second, it worked. You got your legs free again.
Kyle made a sound deep in his chest that sounded half impressed, half angry, and he erased all your previous efforts in one simple yank. That yank was all it took for him to wrap his legs back around yours, tightening them like steel cables, once again neutralizing any lower body movement.
His free hand shoved down the front of your pants and panties without as much as a second of hesitation. You gasped sharply, squirming hard at the sudden intrusion.
“Not good enough.” He growled through clenched teeth. Two thick fingers pushed through your folds to find you so wet it was downright humiliating. He made a quiet grunt of surprise, using one of his legs to spread yours further apart.
He didn't tease or go slow. He slid the tip of his middle finger down your slit to your entrance, and pushed in. He went as deep as he possibly could and curled hard, drawing a sharp and devastating moan from your lips. Your body melted against his again before you snapped out of it and tried to break free.
He curled his finger again, deeper, harder, and you trembled.
“That feel good?” He murmured, his voice low and hot against your ear.
“F-fuck- yeah-”
Not the answer he wanted. He curled his finger again, faster, and again, turning your tense legs into jelly. “You like having one of those animals touch you like this?”
You tried to shake your head. “N-no. I wouldn't-”
“Then do something about it.” He hissed.
You tried to clamp your thighs shut, but his legs felt like literal metal between yours, they kept you pried open for him with minimal effort. You tried and failed to bite back another moan when his finger pushed deeper, the side of his hand grinding rough against your clit.
He didn't even budge, he just kept fucking you with his longest finger, slow and deep and almost punishing. “Stop fighting like a fucking rookie. Do what I taught you. I thought you said you learned something from me.”
He curled his finger faster, stroking that spot inside you that had you struggling to remember what you were supposed to be doing. His arm flexed around your neck as he pulled you tighter against him, forcing your back to arch over his broader chest.
“Come on, Rookie. He's not gonna stop here. You know that.”
You let out a long whine. “I can't- I'm-”
“You're what? Tired?” He taunted, his breathing turning ragged. He rolled his hips forward, grinding his cock against your ass. You gasped. “He's not. His buddies aren't. What are you gonna do, huh? He's got his arm around your neck. He's got his finger in you. What are you gonna do now?”
You smacked your head back against his shoulder in frustration. “I'll scr-scream. Virals, Volatiles-”
He cut you off by shifting his arm away from your neck, muffling your mouth in the crook of his elbow. He pulled tight, preventing you from even opening your mouth.
“Now what?” He panted. “You've got about two minutes if you're lucky. He's not gonna be gentle. He's gonna fuck you raw right here on the floor.”
Your eyes rolled back and you moaned into his arm, your thighs shaking. You were exhausted. Even your fingers were trembling around his bicep.
“Don't let him do this.” He rasped, giving a particularly hard curl. “I thought you had it handled?”
You couldn't shake your head. You couldn't even speak anymore. You couldn't tell him you got the point, you couldn't beg for mercy. You couldn't beg him to just fuck you already. All you could do was lay there and feel it.
“One minute. He's got you right where he wants you. What're you gonna do?” He pumped his finger faster, stroking your front wall with heavy drags. You reached behind your head, trying to grab onto something, grab an ear and twist, but he just ducked his head back and laughed. “Fuck… you're fighting dirty now. Good. But it's still not enough.”
You pulled your hand back and tried to shove it between your bodies. You'd intended on grabbing his dick. Not hard, of course, but that would prove something, right? You got halfway down his torso before he yanked his hand out from between your legs to latch onto your wrist.
He squeezed hard. You cried out behind his arm, the sound muffled, and your hand went limp.
“Ten seconds.” He warned. “Fight, Rookie. Don't let him do this to you. Handle it like you said you would.”
You barely managed an exhausted groan.
Kyle shifted behind you, releasing your wrist to reach for his belt. The metal clinked as he unbuckled it. The sound of his zipper rasping down followed, along with fabric shuffling as he tugged his pants down with one jerky hand. Yours followed, impatiently yanked over your ass and down your thighs just enough to expose you to him.
His cock slapped against your ass. It was heavy, burning hot and throbbing as he guided it between your legs.
Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit- Kyle Crane just whipped his dick out and it just touched your ass-
He's really doing this. This is really happening.
You didn't even think to capitalize on the opening, too shocked by the sudden heavy weight of reality settling on you. You could have gotten out and proved yourself capable. The arm around your mouth had completely slipped down due to his preoccupied mind, his forearm gently resting over your collarbones. You could hear his breathing turn shaky as he slid the tip of his cock up and down between your folds, coating himself with you.
And then you were melting again.
He pushed in slower than you expected. Your entire body went stiff and your jaw dropped, fingernails digging into the forearm hanging loose over your chest.
He groaned, holding his cock with one hand as he pushed into you. His head was thick, stretching you wide open, and you instinctively clenched around the intrusion.
“Sh-fuck.” Kyle breathed, the sound rushed. “Goddamnit. Don't do that.”
You couldn't even get out a groan. You were too busy trembling as he pushed in as slow as physically possible. You'd never felt anyone like Kyle. Every part of him was superior to every male you'd ever met, even his cock. You wanted to build him a shrine and worship at it every night.
With a low groan he pushed in the rest of the way, bottoming out with a slow roll of his hips. He buried himself to the hilt, his pelvis pressed tight against your ass, his balls flush against your folds. He held there for a long few seconds, panting against the back of your head, his free hand gripping your hip so tight it hurt.
You could feel him pulsing inside you. He was so worked up you could literally feel the blood pumping through his dick. You were sure you could make him come if you squeezed him again. You whined, flexing your fingers over his forearm.
Finally, he started moving. He moved slow, hard, pulling out almost completely before he drove his hips forward with a powerful snap that jolted your body and knocked the breath out of you.
“That all you got?” He breathed against your ear.
You moaned. You struggled again, purely for show at this point, twisting your hips, clawing at his arm, bucking your hips, but the headlock he had you in again and the way his legs were tangled with yours kept you trapped against him. Every attempt just made his cock drive even deeper inside you each time he trusted forward.
“Yeah... I think you're shit outta luck, kid.” He punctuated with a particularly slow thrust, grinding his hips so deep you could feel every inch of him dragging inside you. “You had your chance. You fought hard, but you're not ready. You failed. He won.”
He gave another heavy, deep thrust, like he was rubbing in the gravity of the fictional scenario. The sounds his cock made driving in and out of you were obscene, they made your face burn in embarrassment.
“All you can do now is lay there and get fucked.” He continued, moving his hand from your hip to slip up the front of your tank top. His hand covered your breast, his rough thumb pinching and rolling your nipple against his pointer finger.
You groaned, digging your nails deeper into his skin, your hips instinctively pressing back against his.
He shifted his pelvis back just right, angling his cock higher, and snapped forward, driving his tip flush against your cervix and somewhere better. You gasped sharply, jerking away from him, the pleasure and pain too much at once.
Kyle groaned and used his arms around you to pull you back tighter against him, locking you there. “Yeah... There it is. That a good spot?”
You didn't really know if it was a good spot. It was too much, his cock was too big, too deep. He was smothering your body with his; that thick arm around your neck, that heavy hand cupping your breast, those broad legs locking yours in place. His entire body worked together as one to keep you immobilized, spread open, and speared on his cock.
You tried to nod but couldn't.
“Mmhmm-” you moaned instead.
As he fucked you, you could feel his earlier frustration leaving his body. His grip on your throat loosened until he removed you from the headlock, choosing instead to slip an arm under your neck to keep your spine straight and keep you more comfortable. A considerate action.
Kyle Crane was a very considerate man when he wasn't pissed at you.
His legs untangled from yours and he slipped your leggings down the rest of the way, helping you kick them and your panties off. He grabbed your thigh and hoisted it up over his, opening you up further for him, and resumed thrusting with that same slow, snappy pace; the kind that had you letting out these breathy little ‘uh, uh, uh!’s every time he buried himself to the hilt.
“You may be shit at your groundwork-” he panted, running his tongue along his bottom lip, “-but fuck, you're taking me so fuckin’ well, sweetheart.”
You groaned at the insult and the praise, your toes curling against his shins. His leg hair tickled your soles and you sucked in a breath at the overwhelming sensation.
He drove in deep and stayed there for a few seconds, grinding his hips in tight little circles, rolling the head of his cock against that spot that made your eyes roll back, all while staying fully sheathed.
“There?” He asked, his voice hoarse. “Yeah? Right there, baby?”
You nodded dumbly, drawling out a pathetic, “uh-huh!”
“Fuck.” He exhaled, shuddering behind you. He shifted, pulling back long enough to fumble open the buttons on his grey button up. He ripped off the green shirt he had on under it, revealing an incredibly ripped and incredibly sweaty torso. He looked like he should've been in a magazine with his abs glistening like that.
You barely caught more than a few seconds before he was helping you with your tank top.
When you were completely naked, and when he shrugged his pants down to his knees, he shifted positions. He pushed you over onto your stomach and settled back down on top of you, slipping his hand between your bodies to guide his cock back into you.
His breath fanned your back, the air feeling almost cool against your damp skin. He pushed his tip between your messy folds a few times before he bore down.
You keened. Your arms sprawled out along the rug in front of you, desperate to grab onto anything you could, which happened to be the legs of your end table. You grabbed onto it and gripped it as tight as you could as he started hammering back into you.
His chest pressed flush against your back, his slick skin sliding against yours. He slid one arm under your waist to keep your ass arched up for him, his other elbow propping himself up so he wasn't crushing you with his full weight.
Kyle groaned in relief and tugged your hips up another inch. He pulled back just enough to slam back into you, hard and fast. His slow, teasing thrusts were gone, in their place were brutal, punishing strokes that had you crying out into the rug.
The wet sounds of his pelvis slapping against your ass were pornographic.
“Fuck… that's it.” He grunted low and deep. “Take it. Just like that.” His hand under your hips slipped down between your thighs to rub your clit.
You sucked in a gasp. “Mmm-oh f-fuck Kyle-”
He groaned at the use of his name and thrust harder, shoving your body forwards on the rug. His slick chest stayed plastered to your back, you could feel his heart beating like a hammer against your spine. “Yeah? Say it again.”
“Kyle, Kyle- m’close-”
He buried himself deep again and gave those same filthy circles with his hips, grinding the tip of his cock against that spot he knew like the back of his hand by now.
“Oh, sh-fuck!” You gasped, arching under him. “Kyle, Kyle-”
“That's right… this is all me.” He groaned through gritted teeth. “Come on it. There you go, baby. Come on it.”
Your jaw dropped in a long whine, your eyes fluttering shut, your entire body tensing up. “Kyle!”
He shuddered at the feeling of you clenching around him, letting out a shaky breath. He kept grinding his dick in those deep circles, those three flat fingers still rubbing firm strokes over your clit. He didn't stop until you were nearly hyperventilating, your hips twisting away from his hand.
He gave a few more torturous strokes over your sensitive clit before he finally pulled his hand back. “Holy shit.” He shivered, his fingers shaking as they gripped your hip again. “You're… fuck, baby.”
You couldn't respond with words. You gave a weak whimper and arched into him, taking his dick deeper, earning an appreciative groan in return.
“You did so good… fuck, you did so good.” He breathed against the back of your neck. He slowly pulled back, his cock slipping from you, leaving you empty. “C'mon. Sit up for me.”
You pushed yourself up on your elbows, your chest burning from being rubbed against the rug for so long. Kyle saw the way your arms wobbled and he yanked his pants up before rising to his feet.
“Here.” He handed you your bundle of clothes before leaning down to scoop you up. He made it look effortless, the way he just hooked his arms around you and stood back up with you in them. “You okay?” He asked, sounding a little breathless from the last ten minutes of cardio.
You swallowed dryly and nodded, still panting. Those sickly sweet post-orgasm chemicals were coursing through you, making you feel like you were utterly in love with the man carrying you bridal style down the hall towards your bedroom.
He'd been in there once- three months ago when he was helping your father move a new dresser into your room. Your dad had seen it out on a run and immediately knew you would like it. The memory made Kyle wince with guilt, but the sight of you lying naked on your bed quickly made him forget what he was just thinking about.
“God. Look at you.” He exhaled, shoving his pants back down his thighs as he climbed in-between your thighs. “Prettiest thing I've ever seen.”
You smiled, still winded, at his mid-sex talk. There was no way that was true… he'd seen sunsets in Hawaii and bright bombs go off at night in Afghanistan. Still, his words made your cheeks warm and your core ache to have him back in you.
You reached for him, grabbing his biceps to pull him back towards you quicker.
He grinned and obliged, moving quicker until he settled back between your open thighs. His hand wrapped around his cock and gave it a few strokes before he guided it through your folds. His upper lip twitched slightly at the feeling of how hot and wet you were, it was almost enough to bring him over the edge. He took a second to compose himself before he pushed back in.
You shuddered, spreading your legs wider as he sank in. His thick cock stretched your oversensitive walls like it was the first time he pushed in, making you clench around him instinctively.
He choked on a groan and dropped down on his elbows, caging you in and pressing his forehead against your shoulder to steady himself. “Fuck.”
He forced himself to bring his head back up as he rocked his hips, fucking you with slow heavy strokes. The second his eyes met yours he groaned again, low and deep in his chest.
The eye contact felt too intimate. You closed your eyes as he rocked deeper, your back arching, and sank your nails into his biceps.
“Look at me.” He thrusted harder. When you didn't immediately open your eyes he gave a vicious snap of his hips, ripping a yelp from your mouth. “Look at me, baby.”
You forced your eyes open and met his gaze again. You were sure you looked like a mess, your eyes watery, eyeliner smudged, cheeks flushed, your lips swollen and red. But Kyle didn't seem to mind. In fact, the sight made his cock throb harder inside you.
He shuddered. “There- fuck- there she is.”
One of his hands slid under your ass, tilting your hips up, allowing him to sink in deeper on every thrust. His other planted flat on the bed beside your shoulder, keeping him upright while he started fucking you with everything he had.
Which was a lot.
You clenched your jaw. It was getting too much. You were so sensitive and he was so relentless. You clenched harder around him, your body instinctively trying to push him out or slow him down one. You twisted, trying to scoot up, but his hands on your hips kept you right where he wanted you to stay.
“Kyle-” you choked.
“Nuh-uh.” He read your mind and shook his head.
“Fuck, Kyle, too much-”
“You scared the fucking hell out of me today.” He hissed, dropping back down on his elbow, his face a few inches away from yours. “Wanted to act like a- like a fucking badass. This is what that gets you. And you're gonna take it.”
You whined, rolling your head to the side to squeeze your eyes shut. You physically couldn't look at him and take his cock at the same time anymore- you felt seconds away from exploding. It was simply too much.
“Don't tap out on me now. You wanted this lesson.” He teased, breathless, his fingers digging into your ass as he pounded into you. His pace stayed brutal, hips slamming into you with wet, heavy slaps, jolting your body under him.
You nodded, setting your jaw with determination. If you couldn't prove yourself in combat, you would prove yourself here, under Kyle Crane- the Hero of Harran who was fucking you like it was his mission to show you exactly what his body was capable of.
He gave a crooked grin and adjusted his grip on your ass, tilting your pelvis higher, angling his cock deeper.
You gasped. “Sh-shit-”
He groaned. “Yeah… that the spot? Right there?”
You nodded vigorously.
“Yeah… that's it.” His grin widened before a particularly deep thrust had his jaw dropping. His eyes fluttered shut and his brows pinched together, a rough breath leaving him. “Oh, goddamn-”
He was getting close. Sweat dripped from his forehead onto your face as his breathing turned ragged, borderline feral.
“Shit-” he hissed, his voice rough, “I'm getting there. Real fucking close.”
“Please-” you blurted.
He forced his eyes open, looking down at you through a half-lidded gaze. “Please what?”
“P-pl-please-”
He huffed a short, airy laugh, his lips twitching back into that grin. “Talk to me, baby.”
You didn't even know what you were begging for. You couldn't think. You knew you were close, Kyle must've known that too, because he buried himself balls deep again and switched the thrusting for rocking deep and brutal, his pubic bone grinding hard against your clit, the tip of his cock rubbing flush against your cervix in a way that was too much and perfect all at once.
You cried out, your back arching again, your eyes screwing shut.
“This what you needed?” He panted, continuing those deep, filthy circles. “Needed to get fucked stupid after scaring the fuck out of me?”
“Uh-huh-” you nodded again. “Please- pleasepleaseplease-”
“Please what? Say it or I'm not giving it to you.” To drive home his point he slowed to a full stop, his hips stilling against yours.
Your eyes snapped open and you somehow found him in your haze. “No- don't stop, please. M’so close.”
His cock throbbed at your begging and he immediately resumed grinding against you, his fingers circling your clit. He managed a grunt of amusement at the way you melted under him, your coherence leaving the second he started moving.
“Gonna come for me?” He crooned, rocking his hips a little quicker, still staying fully sheathed inside you.
You nodded. It was all you could do anymore.
“Come on. Come for me, baby. I want it.”
You felt it tip, all at once, crashing over you to the point you were a babbling mess again. Your scalp tingled. Your pussy throbbed and clenched around him.
“Yeah?” His brows shot up at the way you completely broke under him. His eyes roamed over you, soaking in every twitch, every facial expression, every second of your orgasm. “Yeah… There you go…” he encouraged, keeping steady pace, his eyes scanning over every inch of you in amazement, “...fuck, that's it, keep comin’, good girl. Good fuckin’ girl.”
You couldn't stop the embarrassing, borderline feral groan that tore from deep in your throat. “Kyle-”
He grunted, clenching his jaw from the effort it took not to fuck you like an animal while you came around him. Only when he felt you relax a little did he start fully moving again.
“Jesus Christ…” He exhaled. He grabbed your thighs under the bends of your knees and pushed up, pressing you back into a tight mating press. He slid impossibly deeper, drawing a wrecked moan from both of you.
Then Kyle kissed you.
He kissed you before he even finished moaning. You wrapped one arm around his neck to tug him closer, swallowing every sound he made as he pounded into you.
His rhythm faltered, growing desperate and sloppy. He fucked you faster, harder, chasing his own release now with single minded intensity.
“Fuck, baby-” he gasped against your lips, panting hot and heavy into your mouth. He couldn't finish the sentence.
With a broken groan that sounded almost pained, he slammed into you hard and stayed there, his pelvis flush against you, balls tight against your skin. He tensed up, every muscle taut, and you could feel his cock throb inside you in a way that was almost violent. He ground his hips against yours as he came inside you, making sure every drop went as deep as possible.
“Fuck… take it.” He groaned through gritted teeth, his hips jerking. “Fucking- take it."
You didn't even realize you were about to come again until you did. You cried out, turning your head to the side to press your forehead against the bicep he had caged next to your head. You rocked your hips instinctively, grinding on his cock as your third orgasm ran through you like a freight train.
He kept moving even as he came. His hips gave shallow thrusts that pushed his cum deeper while you both rode it out together.
His entire body was trembling, his arms shaking with the effort it took to keep himself upright. Eventually he just gave up and slowly lowered himself down on top of you, burying his face in the crook of your neck, his torso pushing your thighs back further until your knees hit the mattress. Your tendons burned, but you couldn't even feel it.
It felt like forever before either of you moved.
Kyle pressed a slow kiss to the side of your neck, shockingly gentle. He lifted his head and pressed another to your throat, and then another to the corner of your jaw.
“Baby?” He murmured. His voice was still wrecked, hoarse and just as soft as his kisses. He eased to the side just enough to lower your thighs down to his waist, but he didn't pull out. He stayed buried inside as he adjusted you into a more relaxed position.
“Mmm-yeah?” You hummed. You couldn't open your eyes. You kept your arms wrapped around his neck.
“You okay?” His hand slid down your side, the same hand that had killed those men, the same hand that had you in a ruthless chokehold.
“Mmhm.” You nodded weakly.
He let out a long breath through his nose, eyes scanning down your body as he continued stroking your side. Eventually he pulled back, groaning at the feeling of your walls practically begging him to stay inside. He slid an arm under your back and pulled, rolling onto his back and pulling you with him until you were sprawled halfway over him, one leg hooked over his waist, one arm thrown lazily over his chest.
His hand resumed stroking up and down your back.
You closed your eyes and purred.
Finally, Kyle spoke again. “I meant it when I said you scared me today.” His voice took on a more serious, more raw tone. “When I saw that…” he trailed off. “I've lost too many people already. I'm not losing you.”
It suddenly felt hard to breathe. Kyle had been that fun uncle figure for a long time now. You knew he cared deeply about your family, especially your father, but you never imagined he'd care that much about you.
“I'm sorry.”
“I know you're sorry. But sorry doesn't mean shit if you're not around to say it.” He sighed. His fingers brushed soft patterns in the small of your back. “And I meant it when I said you're not ready to be out there by yourself.”
You winced, the words hurting. But you knew he was right. Post-orgasm clarity, or whatever. Maybe he was right about all you needing was to get fucked stupid, too. Maybe that was the reason you were acting so reckless.
“If you promise not to pull some shit like today again, I'll keep training you. Every day.” He continued. “When you're ready, when I say you're ready, I'll start taking you on supply runs.”
Your heart started pounding again, and you were smiling without realizing it. You pulled your head up from its place against his chest to look down at him with that same beaming smile. “I promise.”
His lips turned up into an exhausted smile. “I know you do.” He murmured. He reached up and pushed some of your hair behind your ear. “But if you ever try to pull some hero shit, I'm telling your old man to keep you locked up in this tower for the rest of your goddamn life.”
You gave a tired, breathless giggle. “Deal.”
He returned it with a weak chuckle. “Deal.”
You barely managed to pull yourself together before your father got back home. By the time he walked in the door you had three sandwiches made, extra meat on theirs, and two cold, stale beers cracked open.
“All taken care of?” Kyle asked, grabbing the beer from you as he sat down on the couch. He looked fully composed, as if nothing had happened while your father was gone.
He nodded and took the beer from your other hand with a muttered, “thanks, baby.” He didn't look as pissed as he did earlier. “It's done. You give her a talking to?”
Kyle glanced at you as you walked back in the living room with two plates and took a swig from his bottle. “Yeah. She's not gonna be pulling some shit like that again. Are you, Rookie?”
You rolled your eyes and tried not to blanch at the nickname.
