“No more running off and no more falling for stupid lies.”
“Good enough.” Saphir didn’t want to come down on him too hard, but he wanted to make his point very clear.
"I've notified Winston Garlock of the actions of Palmer and his family. He has assured me they will be promptly exiled and their holdings confiscated for the good of the troop." Johan informed Saphir.
"Notify Master Hadden that he will make sure to follow up with the rest of the family members and will make certain no magic influencers remain," Saphir instructed and then, looking down into the exquisitely charming face of his little mate, made the declaration. "We're going home, and I'm claiming you. I want you to have the full protection of a bonded dragon mate, and I'm not willing to wait another second."
To Ashton's surprise, Saphir shifted and grabbed him, flying them both back home in record time. He landed on the front terrace, quickly shifted, and took Ashton into his arms. "That was unbelievable. I wasn't even scared." Ashton gushed.
"You never have to be scared when you are with me, my love." He said as he rushed them inside and into Saphir's quarters. He didn't stop until they were in the bedroom and Saphir was urgently removing Ashton's clothing. "I need you right now, Ashton. The fear of losing you nearly crushed me, and I need you to wear my mark."
"I'm sorry, Saphir. I'm sorry I upset you." He was genuinely saddened by everything that had happened. "I didn't mean to cause you distress. I feared for my father, and it blinded me to the danger I was putting myself in."
“I understand why you did it but don’t ever do it again.” Saphir stated clearly once again.
"I won't." Ashton helped him finish stripping, slipping off the last of his clothing, and then eagerly got up onto the bed.He watched with a salacious smile and sparkling gaze as Saphir continued undressing. The appreciation was a real ego boost. It was clear that Ashton liked everything that he saw.
He then got up onto the bed beside Ashton and took him into his arms for a long and heated kiss. His lips were warm and needy, and he gave Saphir everything he asked for and everything he loved. Ashton reached over and took Saphir's cock in hand, and a wave of red lust burst through him. The need to be inside this man flooded his system.
Saphir broke the contact for a moment and stared down into those clear blue eyes filled with something that called out to him and called out to his dragon. The heat the scent and the desire filled the room and filled Saphir. “You’re amazing.” He whispered and took his lips once again. Pushing Ashton backward he fell on top and pressed his lovely mate back into the soft mattress and pillows. Ashton was moving with him and heightening the sensations of their bodies pressed so tightly together.
He felt Ashton's lips on his neck trailing across his shoulder, and it titillated and began a fire in the depth of his being. He was hard and aching, and his cock throbbed with the need for satisfaction. Ashton's hand was sensitizing the flesh to the point of climax, so he pulled back slightly, moving to separate Ashton's legs and open him up to Saphir's explorations.
His kisses moved to Ashton's shoulder as his fingers found his waiting hole. "You're so tight I want to stretch you and prepare you for my cock. I want this to be so perfect." He spoke softly into Ashton's ear, and he heard him moan and press himself against him. His hands were on Saphir's back, and his arms touched him and sent thrilling sensations throughout his body.
Ashton had a power and control that could rule Saphir and that thought didn’t scare him. The little fox would own him in every way following this evening their bond would seal their lives and their connection for all time. He continued to stretch the tight ring of muscles and thrust his fingers inside reveling in the moist heat and the pressure it was perfect.
"I'm ready, Saphir." Ashton panted and squeezed his upper arms. Saphir felt the bite of his tiny nails, and it was a delicious feeling. His cock became even hard, if that was possible, and he pushed up to press the head against Ashton's waiting hole.
He teased him for a while, pressing and then easing off to Ashton's wanton moans. He was a stunning little lover, and Saphir looked forward to centuries of tasting his life and love. Ashton was his heart now and soon to be the center of his life.
Ashton wrapped his legs around Saphir and held on as Saphir plunged forward with his hips burying his cock deep in one thrust, stretching and filling him full. The pressure was exquisite, and Ashton's hands were everywhere, exploring and learning Saphir's body and reactions. He returned to Saphir's back, running the palms of his hands over the muscles over and over. It was quickening and energizing, and his mate provided him with so much with just his presence.
“I love you sweetheart to the depths of my heart I love you to the bone every part of you all that is you.” Saphir had never been good with his words, but he couldn’t stop expressing himself to his mate needing to assure him of his place and his power with Saphir and in Saphir’s world.
He began to hammer hard as his climax came upon him, and Ashton stiffed, reacting to the sharp sensations rocketing through him. Saphir held him fast, and at the moment of release,he placed his hand on Ashton's chest. His dragon roared as he pressed forward and released the tender heat that would brand his mate with his mark. The act was intense, but for only a moment, until the burst of pleasure took over and swamped Ashton's entire being.
Ashton came in forceful streams, filling the space between them, and released a scent that pushed Saphir over the edge for a second time. He stiffened and came once again, filling Ashton's tight, velvety channel to overflowing. He continued to thrust, needing the contact and to soothe his over-sensitive cock.
They stayed like that for several minutes as the bond snapped into place and their souls became one. The dragon and fox together body and soul. Saphir slowly pulled out and lay down beside Ashton who was panting and his flesh gleamed in a most tantalizing way.
Saphir admired the mark, and Ashton looked at it in awe. It was the mark of the Dragon Knight, and it was extraordinary. "You're mine now, sweetheart, all mine." He said and kissed him softly.
"I've always been yours, Saphir, always."
THE END
