Page 31 of How Not to Charm Your Human Colleague (Falling for Demons #2)

His hands remained on her hips, massaging while also providing resistance and support as his tip slipped inside her.

Aofe sucked in a breath, walls already clenching in anticipation, and then she eased down a little more.

It was too good, and the adrenaline was still pumping through her system, so she wiggled against his grip in an attempt to sink further.

Kizros’s hands tightened, halting her progress. “What did I say?”

Aofe whimpered. “Kiz, please.”

He only cocked his head, tongue flicking over a fang. “Sunshine, just because you’re on top doesn’t put you in charge. You got your claim, now this is mine.”

His fingers tightened, urging her down just a fraction more before he was lifting her high enough until the head of his cock barely rested at her entrance.

Despite the strain she could feel in his trembling arms, his face was a mask of cool calm.

Like he really would take all night with her.

But then he was loosening that grip just enough to let her sink down where she’d been before.

Followed by his own hard thrust from underneath, filling her until his knot pressed against her clit and went no further.

Aofe gasped, fingers curling into his chest where she held herself. Her chin dipped, belly swooping at the feel of him from a new angle. He froze there, letting her catch her breath until she shook her head to clear the blue strands that had fallen in her eyes.

Kizros’s smile was pure smug satisfaction as he watched her. “So beautiful.”

His gaze trailed down her body, and she could tell by the way they shifted that he was mapping the freckles across her chest and abdomen. By the time his eyes focused on the place where they were joined, his knot pulsing against her but too large to slip in comfortably, he didn’t just look hungry.

He looked ravenous.

“Fuck, I can’t wait for my knot to go down so I can keep you filled all night.”

His hips retreated, and then he was driving them up again. Aofe cried out as his knot once again teased her most sensitive parts, his grip urging her to circle her own hips against him. But just as she tried to press harder, Kizros was retreating again.

She considered whining, begging even, before remembering exactly how her demon liked to reward her.

So she clamped her lips between her teeth, eyelids fluttering as she tried to savor the tease.

The way his cock dipped in and out of her entrance, the slickness between her thighs, the reminder of how good the stretch was going to be once he was fully inside her.

“Good girl,” Kizros purred. Along the back of her leg, she could feel the thicker part of his tail rubbing where his hands couldn’t. Inching higher. “You know if you behave, I’ll give you exactly what you need.”

Aofe didn’t trust her voice so she nodded, biting on her tongue as he lowered her a little further onto his cock.

Then, holding her still, he began fucking her at a lazy pace.

A slow glide in until his knot barely teased her clit, and back out until just the head remained inside.

A pace he kept for so long, she felt dizzy from the rising pleasure that never quite tipped.

“You’re doing so good.” Kizros’s fingers tightened on her hips, his tail now brushing the crease between her ass and thigh. “Do you want my tail back here, sunshine?”

“Yes.” She could barely force out the word on breath, entire body coiled tight and ready to burst.

“You’re going to come on my cock first,” he hummed, still keeping that infuriatingly slow pace that wouldn’t get her anything. “I need a little more lubrication, and you’re going to give it to me while screaming my name. Everyone on the street needs to know you’re mine.”

She could tell he was testing her, seeing if she was going to break, so she swallowed back the whimper, no matter how much the thought excited her.

Kizros’s grin flashed at her restraint, and then he surged.

He thrust up while slamming her body down, simultaneously sitting up as his mouth covered her nipple and sucked.

And then his hips were driving into her, his tongue working over her piercing while the tip of his tail slipped between her legs.

His large hands were gone from her hips, now spreading her from behind, and the combination of it all sent her tipping over the edge.

Aofe was certain she’d never screamed so loudly, never come so hard.

Everything was too sensitive, too powerful, and if she thought that was the last of what she had to give, she was proven wrong when she felt the prod at her back entrance.

Her body was pliant even without her full awareness, and a moment later, she could feel the deeper intrusion.

Somehow, she was coming again, or maybe it had never stopped, but there was so much slickness between her legs that the sound of Kizros continuing to pound into her was borderline illegal.

“Fuck, Aofe, you feel so good,” Kizros hummed, lips skating up her throat.

She could barely catch her breath, body shaking and mind so hazy she wasn’t sure if the buzzing in her ears was real or not. “Kiz, too… much.”

“Not yet, sunshine. I said all night, and I’m still not buried fully inside you.”

Aofe didn’t know how that was possible. His cock was still hitting deep, his tail working a slower rhythm in and out of her ass. What more could he?—

Kizros left a searing kiss on her lips, then just as quickly leaned back on the bed. She was already oversensitive, but the quick change of angle reminded her of what she’d forgotten.

“Knot, Aofe.” Kizros smirked up at her. “I’m not done until my cum is locked up where it belongs.”

His knot was still swollen between her legs, pressing against her clit and entrance. She couldn’t tell if it had gone down any, but even with her on top, even with release soaking them, she wasn’t sure it was possible.

Right about now, the horrible thoughts would be coming in. The ones that said she was a failure, a disappointment. That she couldn’t satisfy her partner or follow directions.

But the moment the first thought trickled in, Kizros was sitting up again, cupping her cheeks.

“Hey, hey,” he whispered, kissing over her cheeks and nose as his fingers tucked her hair over her ears. Such an odd comfort when she had his cock and tail still inside her. “I’ve got you, sunshine. Let me show you.”

Aofe nodded, letting her body go loose as he turned them. He laid her onto the bed, somehow keeping them connected as he slid a pillow under her hips, then leaned over to kiss her again, capturing her body with his warmth.

“I’d never hurt you, Aofe,” he whispered against her lips, starting a gentle rocking. “You are perfect. Do you feel that? You can take it.”

His knot pressed against her, the new position allowing it to stretch her a little easier. And below, his tail continued its small thrusts, adding to the pressure.

“Yes,” she breathed, gasping as his knot slipped in deeper. Tears rose to the corners of her eyes. “I love you, Kiz. I trust you.”

“Such a good girl.”

This time when he pressed, he didn’t stop at the resistance.

There was a soft burn, but it was overwhelmed by the feel of his tail curling and the consuming kiss Kizros gave her.

His tongue teased against hers, a momentary distraction, and then his hips were snapping against hers as he finally pushed inside.

The surprise and flash from pain to pleasure overwhelmed her, and she arched as the orgasm rushed to the surface.

Her walls clenched, and at the sound of her cry, Kizros swore.

He braced himself above her and thrust quickly, despite the tightness, dragging out her pleasure until he was coming alongside her.

His knot swelled further, and now she really understood tightness.

Kizros shivered with the last of his release, arms shaking as he lowered himself atop her. But then he was wrapping her in his embrace, rolling to his back with her atop him as his tail slipped free with an obscene, wet sound.

Aofe whimpered at the loss, or maybe it was relief, and she curled into Kizros’s chest to close her eyes. A soft weight rested over them, and even without seeing it, she knew his tail had pulled up the blankets.

“Post adrenaline crash?” Kizros hummed, hand coming up to comb through her hair.

“Worth it,” she mumbled, grinning as his laugh rumbled through her.

He fell still and was silent for long enough that she marveled at his ability to fall asleep so quickly. Until his voice filled the quiet, “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you about the fruit.”

Aofe snorted a laugh, then winced at the ache of him still trapped between her legs. “Kiz, of all the things going through your mind right now, that should be the least of your worries.”

He huffed, then gently tugged her hair so she would look at him. There was a softness to his features, an ease of the worry he’d had for her earlier, but his frown broke that peace. “About the money… I never wanted you to feel trapped here, Aofe.”

She felt the need to immediately ease his guilt, but through that frown, she saw his determination. The silence he’d taken to gather his thoughts so he could speak them to her. A sign of trust.

“I hope that wasn’t insulting. I know you’re capable of making your own way, and if we’re being honest, that isn’t close to the amount of money you’ve already saved me from housing, training an assistant with no alchemist background, ingredient swaps?— ”

“Kiz,” she teased.

He shook his head. “Right, well. I just… I felt guilty at first, wanting to keep you to myself. You were so smart, and I was curious, but it felt selfish wanting to take all your time. And when you still hadn’t left the shop, seen all the other possibilities in Heck, I worried…

I shouldn’t have worried. You’re wonderful, Aofe, and I do want you to be my soulbonded, but you were first my friend.

That’s why I gave you enough to start anew, if you wanted that, with no stipulations or requirements for me to be there. ”

Aofe smiled, pressing a hand to his cheek.

“I told you, Kiz. You are my home. You, Attie, the shop.” She tapped his nose with her thumb.

“Heck.” He smiled, twisting to press a kiss to her palm.

“I’ve been searching for a place where I belong, Kiz, but holding on too tightly to the past and letting it dictate my life.

Every day is a challenge for me, even the good ones, but the difference is that here, with you, I have joy.

I have something worth getting out of bed for.

Something that makes… caring for myself a little easier.

And on the days that I can’t, I have someone I can trust to make the decisions for me. ”

She gave him a watery smile. “You demanded accessibility for me and the other humans, found me an atteapir who is freakishly in tune with my disability, and then bought a new shop with a greenhouse and an apartment with only one level so I wouldn’t have to climb stairs.

You gave me sunshine, and not just a place to live, but a place to thrive.

I don’t want to be anywhere else but with you, Kizros. ”

He knocked his forehead against hers gently, grin so wide it crinkled the corners of his eyes. “I’m going to bloom everything in that new greenhouse blue for you.”

And Aofe wondered if now was a good time to tell him that her favorite color was actually green.
