Epilogue All Systems Go
SEAN: SIX MONTHS LATER
Sunday morning sunlight slants across Greg’s apartment, which I’ve now officially moved into—bigger than my old studio, closer to work, and full of little corners that somehow feel like ours.
I’m lying on my stomach, naked, bare ass exposed, feeling the heat of him kneeling behind me as he rubs my back, lips brushing my skin.
My phone buzzes on the nightstand. It’s Ashley.
“Hey, kiddo,” I answer and Greg pauses, listening.
“Sean! You will not believe how helpful the new laptop has been. It’s…
I can’t even explain. I’m ahead on all my assignments for once!
” Her voice is bright, brimming with the kind of energy only a college sophomore can have.
“And the document scanner Greg sent me? It’s so small.
And it syncs with my notes. It’s amazing! ”
I grin. “Yeah, he thought you might find that useful.”
“He’s my hero. Seriously, I’m not sure how you got so lucky to land him, but I love that you have each other. I wish you guys were closer.”
I glance back at Greg. He’s humming softly, his fingers kneading my shoulders in a way that says, I’ve got you. “All credit goes to him,” I say. “And also, you work so hard, Ash. You’re brilliant. And we’ll see you for the holidays.”
“Yeah, but I still miss you guys.”
We went up last month for a weekend getaway so Ashley and Greg could officially meet. To say they hit it off would be an understatement. Apparently they both like the same video games. And teasing me.
“Anyway, I almost didn’t sleep last night because I was trying to figure out how he got the laptop to sync with the scanner. I called him, and he talked me through it in five minutes. He’s basically a wizard.”
I smirk, watching Greg shift, brushing his lips against my shoulder. That’s why he got up in the middle of the night. “Don’t worry. I think magic is in his job description.”
“Love you, Seanie.”
“Love you, Ash.”
We hang up, and the quiet that follows is… comfortable. Domestic. Homey. I stretch, my ass brushing against Greg’s growing erection, and he hums into my skin. My hands tangle in the sheets, completely lost in the heat of the moment.
“Everything okay?” he asks.
“Yeah. She’s just… really grateful for everything you’ve done. You’re something else, you know that? I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to repay you.”
“You don’t have to. We’re bonded now. Mates take care of each other.”
Once we were official, Greg explained the importance of mates for him—how in orc culture it isn’t just a romantic label but a promise.
A commitment to stand beside someone through everything, to build a life that belongs to both of you.
Orcs don’t take it lightly. When they choose a mate, it means something permanent. Real. Forever.
He grins, that spark in his eyes turning wicked. “But if you wanted to be a good boy and let me feast on you, I wouldn’t complain.”
I close my eyes, and Greg spreads me wide. His tusks scrape my butt cheeks in that way that makes my insides smolder as he kisses around the perimeter. A few months ago, I would’ve thought he was mocking me, but now I know this is him warming things up.
“Gregory, please.” I arch my back, and, taking the hint, he dives in.
That tongue—long, thick, rough in all the right places—works me over, priming my hole for what’s coming next.
In the six months we’ve been together, Greg has really let go of his inhibitions.
The noises he makes—slurping, grunting, sucking—sound like he hasn’t eaten in days and is finally feasting, completely lost in the moment.
“Mmmh, Greg,” I moan into the bed. “Please. Please.”
He pulls back, apparently hearing my mumbling. “Are you ready to get fucked?”
“By you?” I reach back and spread myself wide, letting him see. “Open and ready… like a gift you’ve been dying to unwrap.”
“Well…” I hear the lube click open. “It’s not my birthday. But damn, if this isn’t the prettiest present I’ve ever received.”
His powerful hands grab my waist and hoist me up so I’m on all fours. We’re at the point where I don’t need to ease into things by riding him. Because I'm unable to keep my hands off the sexy AF IT nerd I live with, we're having sex at least a few times a week. My ass has officially acclimated.
And when he lines up behind me, the air changes. Charged. Familiar. Electric.
Carefully, his cock breaches my hole, and the fullness of having him inside me zips a surge through my entire body. I glance down and notice precum dripping from my dick. He’s got me dialed up to ten.
Greg pauses, all the way inside, waiting for me. This is our thing now. Once I’m ready, I push back, just a little, then rock forward, initiating the rhythm, until I pass the baton to my gorgeous mate.
“Okay, okay,” I murmur. “All systems go. Now, pound me.”
His muscular hands seize my waist. He slides out, leaving the plump head in, then, before he moves, I add, “Hard.”
My Greg does exactly what I ask, thrusting into me with force and determination.
We find our rhythm quickly, his thick thighs slapping against my ass in a steady, hungry tempo.
When I look back, he’s got one hand tucked behind his head, that perfect armpit on full display—a patch of dark hair matching his head—and it’s honestly the hottest thing I’ve ever seen.
“Such a fucking good boy.” He gives my ass a soft slap, and shivers of pleasure radiate through me.
For a few minutes, it’s nothing but motion—Greg’s grunts, my moans, and the slurp of his fat cock driving in and out of me.
Then he pulls out, and when I look back, he’s sprawled on his back, every inch of him handsome, chest heaving, cock still hard and glistening with lube.
I crawl up beside him and rest my head on his chest.
“Just need to catch my breath,” he says between gasps.
“Take all the time you need.” I rest my hand on his stomach, still half in disbelief that he’s got a six-pack when he barely works out and eats like calories are just a suggestion. He swears it’s genetics, which should make me hate him, but I don’t. Hard to hate someone I get to enjoy this much.
I kiss his chest, giving his piercings special attention, and apparently the contact of my lips on his skin is enough, because his cock comes to life, pulsing up, aching for contact.
“Someone seems… ready,” I say.
He chuckles, and I reach down and give him a few strokes. When Greg’s hips lift, I get an idea.
“Hold on.” I reach into the nightstand and pull out the toy I bought a few months back—green, thick, and curved like it’s auditioning to be Greg’s stunt double. It’s not quite the real thing—no warmth, no pulse, no adorable tusky grin—but close enough to make me thankful for express shipping.
I grab a pillow from the head of the bed and pat his ass. “Lift, please.”
He obliges, hips rising obediently, muscles flexing. I slide the pillow under, adjusting until I’ve got the angle just right. Perfect.
“Now,” I say, climbing astride him, my knees bracketing his waist. “You’re going to fuck me.” I hold up the toy. “And I’m…” I grin down at him. “Going to fuck you like a good boy.”
His eyes go wide for a second—half surprise, half pure hunger—before that delicious smile spreads across his face, all teeth and tusks and anticipation.
I slick everything up—generous, messy, thorough—because if there’s one thing Greg’s taught me, it’s that preparation is key.
Then I reach back, press the tip of the toy against his hole, and to my surprise, he’s already relaxed, ready.
My brows lift as the green silicone slides in with almost no resistance.
“There’s my beautiful, horny hole,” I tease, earning a low rumble from his chest. “You like that fat toy inside you?”
Greg nods quickly, that dorky smile lighting up his handsome face.
I let the toy rest there and shift forward, guiding his thick cock back inside me. The second he’s inside me, Greg’s instincts kick in—his hips snap up, finding that familiar rhythm that knocks the breath out of me every damn time.
I reach behind me, fingers brushing the toy’s ridged base. He growls as I start to move it, thrust for thrust, syncing our motions until it feels like some perfect feedback loop—him driving into me while I work the toy in his ass, both of us caught between control and chaos.
Greg’s got one hand wrapped around my cock, stroking in quick, rough pulls that make it hard to think. With my free hand, I reach down and twist the little bar through his left nipple. His breath catches—half growl, half moan—and I swear the sound goes straight through me.
Between him fucking me, the toy fucking him, and the pinch of the piercing, his expression turns wrecked and radiant all at once.
His mouth falls open, sweat glinting on his beautiful skin, eyes unfocused like he’s unraveling in the best way imaginable.
It’s raw, hungry, unguarded—like I’m watching every layer of him peel away.
Between his gasps and groans, I hear my name.
“Sean… my love. My mate. I’m…”
He’s close.
“Come on.” I give his nipple a good flick. “Fill me up.”
We ditched the tarp months ago. Now we’ve got a linen closet that could survive a small apocalypse, and we’ve mastered the art of speedy cleanup. Sometimes we sneak into the shower, but usually we simply swap sheets, toss the messy ones in the wash, and carry on—sexy chaos, handled like pros.
Greg’s hand moves faster on my dick, slick with lube and precum, and I know I’m about to tip over the edge, too. I quicken my pace with the toy, matching his cock inside me and his hand, and when he lets out a low guttural growl, I brace for impact.
I come first, a shuddering wave that steals my breath.
Every thrust, every slick slide of him stretching and filling me, sends electric jolts up my spine as I blast across his chest and stomach.
Greg’s hand is quick to follow, scooping up the warm cum, his fingers slick and shiny.
He brings them to his mouth, moaning, eyes half-lidded, tasting me like it’s the most delicious thing he’s ever had.
Orc cum might have its own reputation, but right now, mine has him hooked—and the way he hums around his cum-coated fingers makes my cock twitch all over again.
His face shifts. He’s about to blow.
I brace myself against his chest with one hand, pressing close, while the other keeps the toy sliding in and out of him.
His hips jerk, lifting me with each pulse, and then it hits me—his thick cock, throbbing inside me, spilling his seed deep, filling me to the brim.
I ride him through it, thumb brushing over his nipple, the toy plunging into his ass in perfect rhythm as he grips it with each shuddering spasm.
After a couple of explosive blasts, I collapse onto him, his cock pulls out, and cum shoots everywhere, dripping out of me, making a complete, perfect mess.
I groan and wipe a stray drop from my chest, smirking up at him. “You know, we might need a dedicated cum mop.”
Greg grins, tousling my hair. “Uh… we already have one. It’s in the linen closet.”
And somehow, amidst the mess, the sweat, and the chaos, it’s perfect. Totally, ridiculously perfect.
After we’re all cleaned up, we sprawl on the couch, sunlight warm across our tangle of limbs. I watch him shift, pulling me closer, sighing. I could stay here forever, hearing his breath, smelling his cedar shampoo and the faint trace of coffee from his Ctrl+Alt+Orc mug on the table.
Greg props himself on the sofa arm, looking at me like I’m the most precious code in the universe.
“Sean,” he says softly, but with the quiet authority of someone who knows exactly what he wants.
“I’ve been thinking about… us. All the chaos we’ve survived, all the late nights, the broken laptops, the waffle experiments…
” He chuckles. “I can’t imagine my life without you. ”
My body hums. “Greg…”
“I love you, Sean,” he says, gaze steady. “I want this. I want you. Us. All of it. Forever. Will you…” He pulls something small from his hoodie pocket. “…marry me?”
I laugh, almost hysterically, because yes, he's an overgrown nerd, and yes, he’s completely, spectacularly mine. “Yes,” I whisper, tears brimming. “Yes, I’ll marry you.”
He slides the simple silver band onto my finger, grinning like he just solved the world’s toughest server crash. “Finally,” he says. “You’re mine. Forever.”
And as we settle together on the couch, holding hands, I think of Ashley upstate, thriving, independent, and brilliant.
I’m proud of her, but I’m also happy here—happy with Greg, in our little home, wrapped up in warmth and love.
I glance down at his green, dimpled hand, resting over mine, and I realize: I wouldn’t trade this life, this mess, this joy for anything.
Greg hums softly against my temple, his warmth spreading through me. For once, I don’t need to fix anything. I don’t need to solve a crisis or save the day. Everything is… exactly as it should be.
“All systems go,” I murmur.
Greg snorts, nudging me. “You are impossible.”
“Uh-huh,” I reply, grinning. “But you love me.”
“Yeah. I do,” he says, pressing a soft kiss to my forehead. “As long as I have breath in my body.”
And with him, I know: chaos, love, life, laughter, tech, coffee, waffles… all of it fits. Perfectly. And I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with him—every messy, joyful, ridiculous, beautiful moment.
The End
