Lilith slipped her tongue into Cassian’s mouth, deepening the kiss as he rocked into her. Whatever plan she’d had about a child had dissolved entirely as there was nothing in her mind now but the pleasure he was giving her.
All Lilith wanted now was for Cassian to distract her from her recent troubles and help to let her forget them in this moment so she could be carefree.
Cassian didn’t give her the space to think, let alone scheme her way to the upper hand. For this very moment, Lilith was completely at Cassian’s mercy as she clung to him and called his name again.
Lilith’s right hand slipped from Cassian’s shoulder to his back, her nails pressing into his flesh. The marks she left blended seamlessly into the battle scars he had earned at war.
Each time Cassian drove deeper into her, her head fell back, and her nails found new places in his skin.
Cassian’s mind didn’t linger on the pain gathering in his back. He was entirely focused on Lilith. On giving her everything she wanted from him. He wanted to satisfy her so much that she would keep coming back to him and eventually fall in love with him just as she did once before.
The sound of their bodies filled the quiet chamber alongside the low crackle of the fire from the fireplace. The fireplace was the only light offered to the pair aside from a few candles.
When Lilith’s back arched, Cassian took the opening to settle his hands at her waist, holding her firmly as he guided her to meet him each time he pressed forward.
Sweat had already begun to trace a path down Cassian’s forehead from the combined warmth of their bodies and the fire reaching him all at once.
"Am I satisfying you, or do I still fall short of what you had in mind?" Cassian asked, refusing to let go of what she’d said before.
"Shut it, or this ends right now," Lilith said, the threat in her voice carrying a promise that even she wasn’t entirely sure she could follow through on.
Lilith felt too good now in the moment to call this off. She would only trouble herself and be even more frustrated later.
Cassian smirked. He knew she wasn’t calling it off. Not now, not when she was feeling too good and letting him know it with every sound she made. She tried not to call out his name too often, but it continued to slip out and sounded like sweet music to Cassian’s ears.
Cassian drove into her with a sharper thrust, filling her completely and sending a jolt through her body.
Lilith had no idea how well he knew her. He knew what she wanted and what she didn’t. He knew precisely where she felt the most pleasure and exactly what could draw her further in.
"I don’t believe for a moment that you would end this now," Cassian said, stilling briefly before pressing deep into her again. "You would only be punishing yourself. Oh, how quickly your words came back to bite you. Perhaps I should have let you take me in that pretty mouth of yours and decided then whether I was small."
Lilith’s glare could frighten a man, but Cassian was used to it. She despised that he was still carrying on about this. She knew exactly what he was doing, and though the pleasure was the only thing that mattered, the record still needed setting straight.
Lilith pressed her palm flat against his chest and pushed him back against the bed, breaking the connection between them in one movement. She took her time approaching him and straddled his lap slowly.
"You got one reaction and took it three steps too far. Don’t do too much, or I will ruin that confidence of yours, and I would hate to, because I am rather enjoying it," Lilith said, drawing Cassian towards her until the roughness of his chest pressed against hers.
Lilith leaned forward until her lips were at his ear, her breath tickling his ear. "It would be very easy for me to bring you from the confidence of a king to that of a stable boy. You are the one who shouldn’t play with fire, Cassian."
She took it a step further, trailing her tongue slowly along the line of his neck before stopping just above his shoulder blade to bite him precisely where he had bitten her.
Lilith could also have her fun turning Cassian into a mess. Into a man completely and utterly smitten with her. Fortunately, with what Lilith witnessed so far, it wouldn’t take much effort to do.
Lilith’s fingers slipped into Cassian’s hair and pulled, tilting his face up to meet hers. "You may hold all the power over everyone beyond that door, but in here, from now on, you will answer to me. No matter how hard you try to fight it, you will always end up beneath me."
Cassian settled his arms around Lilith’s waist, holding her gaze. "A position I could learn to love, but I must point out that I can be just as attentive on top of you. Did I not just prove as much?"
"Did you?" Lilith asked, her grip on his hair easing.
Lilith trailed her hand down Cassian’s chest, stopping just below his waist to wrap her fingers around him and guide herself down.
Neither of them broke eye contact as Lilith sank onto his length and settled against him. Each one still carried their earlier boldness.
A smirk rose to Lilith’s lips. She knew he hadn’t expected her to be quite so direct about what she wanted.
Lilith moved without waiting, riding him with a focused, urgent pace. She was chasing the pleasure he had built in her earlier. She had no time for his games and no patience for further teasing. There was one thing she wanted from him now, and she was going to take every last bit of it.
