Love.  Kade wondered if the snake could even feel love.  The idea itself was laughable, as was the denial sputtering past the man’s pretty lips.  Not<i>want</i>Kade?  That was an impossibility.  It was also a blatant lie, if the rise in that delicious scent of desire in the air was any indication, which it was.<br/><br/>“Fighting me gets you nowhere, my dear,” he chimed, obviously amused at the struggles more than becoming concerned from them.  It wasn’t even a challenge to keep Dorian in place.  “I just came for another taste of you.  I have no intentions of killing you tonight.  You really shouldn’t blame me; you’re too great a temptation for me to keep resisting.  Perhaps if I didn’t have to see you, smell you from across your desk, and remember how much I want you…”<br/><br/>He licked his lips and groaned, his body tingling in anticipation as he moved a hand to grip into Dorian’s hair.  It had been plenty of time since their last intimate meeting for the human’s body to recover from the blood loss, to replace every delicious drop he’d stolen.  Perhaps this time he could remain in control and not take too much.  He still needed the lawyer at the top of his game, for Jacob’s sake.  He’d also made sure to take offerings from his garden before coming, hoping that would help.  Tugging the man’s head to the side, Kade leaned down and licked at his neck, panting sweetly as need and hunger both rose within him.  He felt his body responding, his cock stiffing between them, and his hips rolled to gain blessed friction.  The silken boxers allowed a smooth glide that was more torture than anything, but Kade was not opposed to torturing himself in such a way.  It was all pleasure, and he loved it.<br/><br/>“Give yourself to me, Dorian,” he pleaded in a voice deepened with so much longing.  Kade scraped fangs along the skin, passing over the place he’d bitten months prior in hopes of reawakening that acceptance.  All the man had to do was resign himself to it, and Kade would count it as a victory.  He was already so used to being praised as a godlike entity, and he wanted to drive this breathtaking man to that level.  “Accept me.  Love me.<i>Worship</i>me… and I will give you what you deny you crave.  The more you fight it, the more pain you create for yourself.”
