Page 21 of Demon’s Desire (Lovers of the Damned #3)

Onyx opened his eyes. Like he could forget.

He pressed forward and swallowed Nico down, impaling himself on Nico’s cock. Onyx’s eyes watered as desire burned through him. He was hard in his too-tight jeans, Nico’s thick length perfect to choke on.

“You like that?” Nico bit his lip and thrust his hips. Onyx moaned. “Your glowing eyes are so fucking pretty, turning your red cheeks purple. You love drowning on my cock.”

Onyx whimpered, face flaming hotter. Nico’s description set his heart thumping. Onyx pulled back only for Nico to thrust forward, and he whimpered again.

“You’re getting desperate.” Nico thrust again. “Was it what I said or how good my cock is?”

Onyx wasn’t sure. Probably both.

“I want to see all of you.” Nico’s thrusts turned steady, pulling little choked moans from Onyx each time he hit the back of his throat.

“I want you naked in your demon form so I can hold you down by the horns and fuck your face. I bet you’d love that.

I want to see everything you’re hiding from me. ”

Onyx whined and tried to pull back, but Nico didn’t let him. Good. Escaping wasn’t the aim. He didn’t truly want to get away from anything except the idea of Nico seeing him. He hadn’t shown his horns and tail to anyone in centuries.

“Yeah, you don’t like me seeing what you’re hiding, do you?” Nico thrust deep and swirled his hips as Onyx’s throat spasmed. Nico’s eyes rolled back. “Fuck… You’re so good. How can I not want all of you?”

Onyx let out a shrill sound. His whole body burned. It was a good thing he was clothed, or Nico would see him blush all over. Onyx’s emotions made a spectacle of themselves all over his body, especially in his demon form. Nico couldn’t see that. It was too much.

“Uhh, hell…you’re killing me.” Nico’s eyes fell closed, and his hold loosened.

Onyx growled and took over, working his head up and down.

Nico opened his eyes and smiled. “You don’t like me looking away either. That’s fair. I won’t do it again. Oh, fuuuck.”

Yeah, Onyx was blowing the witch’s damn mind. Excellent. He had to destroy Nico as much as Nico was destroying him. It was the only way he’d survive this.

“Oh.” Nico’s breathing grew heavier. “Onyx, take your dick out. Be a good boy and show me how much you like this. Come for me. Please. Oh, shit, I’m close. Please.”

Onyx hurried to undo his pants and pulled out his straining cock.

Nico’s attention didn’t stray. Sweat prickled his brow, and his cheeks flushed dark. He pulled back until his cock almost slipped from Onyx’s lips. Onyx fisted his own cock and began stroking.

Nico hummed and thrust forward. He fucked Onyx hard, bringing tears to Onyx’s burning eyes.

“Onyx, yeah, so good for me. Ugh.” Nico released a strangled sound as his cock began to pulse, filling Onyx’s throat.

Onyx hollowed his cheeks, pulling back so he could taste Nico’s citrusy release on his tongue. Onyx jerked himself hard and rough, pleasure sparking down his spine and through his hidden tail. He swallowed all of Nico’s cum, drinking in his moans and labored breathing.

Onyx was nearly there. He worked himself harder.

Nico pulled his spent cock from Onyx’s lips, his grip on Onyx’s hair unfaltering. “Look at you, right where you’re meant to be. On your knees for me.”

Onyx’s whole body trembled as his orgasm tore through him, unable to break Nico’s stare. It was too much. Too good. He was giving too much away, even clothed in his human form.

Pleasure faded. Onyx gasped for breath. He dropped forward, resting his forehead on Nico’s thigh.

Nico’s grip turned soft, stroking his hair so gently, Onyx almost burst into sobbing tears. Good tears or bad, he couldn’t tell. Maybe both.

Onyx needed to sleep for a week after this much emotion. His body was relaxed, but his mind was wrung out. Sex with Nico shouldn’t be any different than the countless times he’d fucked around at the club, or the endless times he’d fucked around over the centuries, but it was.

“That was fucking incredible,” Nico groaned, still out of breath.

Onyx was glad there was something to be smug about. Smug was safe.

“I know, I’m incredible.” He was too winded to sound arrogant, but it would have to do.

Nico chuckled and patted Onyx’s head. “Yeah, figured I’d tell you anyway.”

“As you should.” Onyx nestled into Nico’s thigh.

After a long moment, Nico tugged his hair gently. “Come on, get up.”

Onyx groaned. He didn’t want to move. Dammit, he’d have to go home now.

“Up.” Nico tugged harder.

“Ow.” Onyx unstuck his face from Nico’s thigh and glared at him.

“Don’t complain. You like it when I pull your hair.”

“Doesn’t mean you can do it whenever you want.”

“My mistake.” Nico released him, then smiled at the look of disappointment that must have been obvious on Onyx’s face.

Onyx looked away, busying himself cleaning the sticky mess he’d made with a spell, and tucking his cock away. He stood and buttoned his jeans, turning away as Nico righted his clothes.

“I’m off home. Think I’ll fly unless you need an escort back to your place.”

“I can manage.”

Onyx shot Nico what was hopefully a condescending look. “Good.”

He followed Nico out of the shop. Nico locked up, pulling the metal grate down over the door and windows. They both hesitated, neither making a move to leave.

Nico glanced in the direction of his apartment, then back at Onyx. “Can I see your wings?”

Renewed heat flooded Onyx’s traitorous face.

“You don’t have to show me,” Nico hurried to add. “I, uh, wasn’t kidding about wanting to see you. But I’m sorry if it’s presumptuous to ask.”

Onyx’s chest warmed.

He should shut Nico down. It was the smart thing to do, so why couldn’t he successfully push Nico away? Nico was being so genuine and respectful, it was sickening. Onyx hated it. Or at least he tried to convince himself he hated it because really, he loved Nico’s interest.

He wanted to enjoy it before Nico got bored.

Onyx silently cast an invisibility illusion over himself, allowing Nico to see through it. “You’re not being presumptuous. Here, I’ll show you. Since I’m going to fly anyway.”

Nico grinned, and it was annoyingly wholesome. Then he looked quickly up and down the quiet street. “Wait, you can’t show me here. Someone could see.”

Onyx waved a careless hand. “It’s fine. I’m invisible to everyone but you right now.”

Nico gaped. “You can be invisible?”

“Did no one tell you invisibility was another demon trick? I can also let select people see through the illusion, like you, Dante, Ash, unfortunately, and of course, the little mates.”

Nico blinked like this surprised him.

Onyx didn’t ask why. He rolled his shoulders and whipped off his shirt.

Nico’s gaze turned hungry as he took in Onyx’s bare chest. “Your nipples are pierced.”

“Oh, shit, really?” Onyx looked down at himself in mock surprise.

Nico laughed. “How did I not notice that through your shirt?”

Onyx braced a hand on his hip. “Have you been checking out my nipples?”

“I’ve been checking you out in general.” Nico’s gaze dropped back to Onyx’s chest. “You’ve worn shirts tight enough that I should have noticed.”

Onyx suppressed the smile threatening to break free. “It’s called magic. Thought you’d be familiar.”

Nico cracked up, shaking his head. “Little shit. I didn’t realize piercings were worth hiding with magic.”

Onyx wouldn’t explain why he hid them. He didn’t care if people saw his piercings beneath a tight shirt.

This wasn’t some embarrassing thing. It was more that he’d gotten the piercings for himself.

They weren’t for other people to notice unless he wanted them to.

Like everything else about Onyx, he chose when to reveal them.

Nico’s reaction had been worth it. The longer Nico looked, the more Onyx’s skin prickled.

“Ready for my wings?”

Nico’s gaze shot to his face. “Definitely.”

In a flash, Onyx released his midnight blue wings. He unfolded them and shook them out, keeping his other demon features hidden.

“Oh, wow.” Nico took a step forward, eyes wide.

“I’m very pretty.” Onyx ruffled his feathers.

The tips of his wings were much lighter than the feathers at his shoulders, creating a fading blue ombre. The effect was pleasing, even if it was due to a lack of pigment.

Nico’s eyes shone as they swept over Onyx. “You’re more than pretty. You’re amazing, Onyx. Thank you for showing me.”

Onyx couldn’t speak. Why was Nico thanking him? It was so weird. Onyx wasn’t amazing. Wings were an appendage like any other.

But Nico’s words had Onyx melting into a pile of blue mush.

“G’night,” he choked out and shot into the air, leaving Nico behind.
