Page 12 of Becoming One

Nelson slid his hands under the hem pressing the palms to Orion’s hipbones, then slowly moved them up, caressing Orion lovingly. When his hands made contact with bare flesh, Orion jumped, taking a step back and pulling away from his touch.

He immediately moved off the bed and knelt on the floor at Orion’s feet, looking up at him with pleading eyes. He met Orion’s stress filled gaze and saw not only his fear, but shame. He would have none of that. “You are so brave, my mate. The bravest man I have ever known, and these scars prove that. They are your badge of courage as well as the proof of your honor. Without thought to your own wellbeing, you rushed in to save another. A best friend. You have nothing to be ashamed of, sexy man. I am so proud to have you as mine and very honored to walk beside you in this life. I love having everyone who sees us know that I am yours and you are mine,” Nelson spoke softly, comfortingly, and at the same time he had moved his hands back under Orion’s shirt and they were now making their way up his hard abs.

Nelson continued to say encouraging words and also ones of love and devotion as he raised himself higher on his knees and his hands continued their tour over Orion’s flesh. Yes, he felt the gnarled skin and raised scars, but they honestly had no ill effect on him. They only made him fall in love with his mate even more. He meant everything he said to Orion about his scars being the proof of his honor and courage.

As Nelson moved his hands up Orion’s torso, the shirt went with them and as his body was exposed, Orion closed his eyes tight and Nelson could see that he was holding his breath. Nelson leaned in and placed a tender kiss over the most prominent scar and Orion shook. Nelson kissed the spot again, then slowly ran his lips up the flesh and rained kisses over Orion’s torso, on both the mangled side and the smooth side. He paid not one side more attention then the other, giving both his love and admiration. His want and desire. His pride and his love.

As he kissed his way farther up, Nelson grabbed the shirt and slowly lifted it up over Orion’s head, then dropped it on the floor. He kissed Orion’s collarbone as he smoothed his hands over his body, exploring every inch.

Nelson then kissed the side of Orion’s neck and Orion groaned. The sound giving him the courage to continue. Nelson moved to his left as he kissed Orion’s scared shoulder and dragged his right hand over Orion’s wide chest. As he moved around to Orion’s back, Nelson took one of Orion’s nipples between his fingers and began to caress and pinch the hard nub.

Orion hissed, “Oh gods, my mate.”

“Sshh. I told you, everything is okay. Just let yourself feel and take comfort from my touch. Know that it is all out of my deep love for you. You are so beautiful, Orion. Your body is like that of a god. So big. So strong. To me, it is perfection,” Nelson whispered against Orion’s back, allowing his breath to wash over Orion’s flesh so that he may feel his words, not just hear them.

Nelson kissed and licked his way across Orion’s back and at the same time, he moved his hands lower and popped the button on Orion’s jeans, then drew the zipper down. He gripped the waistband and gave it a tug until Orion’s pants were below his ass. Then he kissed the nape of Orion’s neck before he dropped to his knees.

The sight of the perfect ass was just an inch before him and Nelson licked his lips. He kissed each cheek with the same tenderness he gave the rest of his mate’s body, then ran his tongue up the crease between them. Yum. Gods his mate tasted like the finest wine.

“Shit, Nelson,” Orion said in a shaky voice, showing just how vulnerable he felt in this moment.

Nelson pulled on Orion’s pants, lowering them to the floor, then helped Orion step out of them before he pushed the garment away. He placed his hands on the back of Orion’s calves and slowly dragged them up his thighs to his ass, then Nelson gently squeezed the muscled flesh.

He tilted his head and kissed the bottom of Orion’s ass cheek and his mate instinctively widened his stance. Nelson smiled and moved lower, kissing Orion’s heavy sac from behind.

“I don’t know how much more I can take, mate. I need to be inside you, Nelson. I need to feel you.” The vulnerability was still there, but much less, and that made Nelson happy. His mate was coming out of his own head and whatever negative dialog Nelson was sure was there and was just allowing himself to feel everything Nelson was doing.

Nelson buried his face in Orion’s crease at the same time he wrapped his arms around his hips and took Orion’s hard, pulsing cock in one hand and his balls in the other. He licked and sucked Orion’s tight hole as he slowly stroked him and rolled his sac in his hand.

The moans and grunts followed by hissing and some under the breath cursing that he heard from above, filled Nelson with pride that he was the one who could make his big, strong mate fall apart like he was. He and only he, was the one to touch and kiss his mate everywhere and help him to drop his defenses.

He knew that Orion had been with other men before him, but he also knew that Orion had never taken his clothes off with those men, only what he needed to get the job done, then Orion would be gone. He didn’t get attached and never allowed anyone this close. Until now. Until him. And the realization of that brought tears to his eyes and filled him with even more love for his man.

“I’m sorry, mate, but I need you now,” Orion said deeply, his voice coming out almost in a growl. The sound sent a thrill right to Nelson’s cock and it began to leak copious amounts of his seed.

Orion spun around and lifted him off the floor, then tossed him on the bed. Nelson giggled as he bounced a few times and the towel dropped away from his hips, exposing his full form to Orion’s hungry gaze.

“My gods, you’re even more stunning then I imagined, mate. You’re…you’re…”

“A skinny twink?” Nelson said nervously.

Orion shook his head slowly as his gaze roamed down Nelson’s body like a physical caress. “No. Perfection.”

Nelson could hear the wonder and truth in Orion’s words and suddenly a shyness overcame him. Heat rose in his cheeks and Nelson looked down, but as he dropped his gaze, it landed on his mate’s cock. He was getting his first look at Orion in his full, bare form and he was aroused more than he ever had been before in his life. Orion was the perfect one. Nelson had honestly never really seen Orion’s scars and he still didn’t. All he saw was the man he had fallen head over heels in love with and that was all that mattered.

His gaze once again dropped down to the heavy cock jutting out from between Orion’s legs and he about swallowed his tongue. Orion had the biggest cock Nelson had ever seen. Not only was it long, but it was thick as well and his hole clenched in anticipation. Holy moly, his mate was blessed in many ways by the Gods themselves. What a lucky man he was.

Orion grabbed the lube from the side table, then crawled on the bed. Nelson immediately bent his knees, and Orion positioned himself in front of him, gently placing a hand on Nelson, running his hands over Nelson’s chest and down past his belly button, teasing each time he grazed Nelson’s hard shaft with his fingers.

Nelson closed his eyes and let out a deep breath, lifting his hips to try and get Orion to do more than just graze his cock.

Orion leaned over him, kissing just below Nelson’s ear, then whispered lovingly, “You make me feel whole when you love me, mate. The way you look at me, touch me, I don’t think about my scars. I only think about the joy you bring to my life and how much I want to show you for the rest of our lives, that you are my world. That you and your fox come before all others, and I want you to feel my love for you both, every day.”

Orion then leaned lower until he was suckling one of Nelson’s nipples, never stopping his hands from rubbing over Nelson’s body, still grazing and teasing Nelson’s cock.

The way Orion touched him, kissed him, and loved on him had Nelson feeling like the most cherished man in the world. The Gods had truly blessed him when they joined his soul to Orion’s. He must have done something very right in another life.

Orion started kissing his way down Nelson’s chest until he was nuzzling his groin. When Nelson felt the tip of Orion’s tongue on his shaft, he couldn’t hold back the hiss of pleasure, that quickly turned into a groan when Orion took the tip of his hard cock into his mouth, slowly sliding down.
