17. Dominic
Dominic
The days since the dinner had passed uneventfully, even if Onyx was clearly growing restless and bored. He’d mentioned returning to the rec room by himself, but Dominic had shut that down with a mere look.
It appeared that Onyx hadn’t quite gotten the message, though, because after he finished eating that evening, he asked, “Dominic? Do you think that maybe I could just hang out with Shane tomorrow instead of sitting in your office all day? I’m so fucking bored.”
Dominic gave Onyx an unimpressed look. “The last time I left the two of you alone, some rather questionable actions got taken. Which, given everything I’ve been given to understand, started when the two of you were ‘just hanging out.’”
Not to mention taken several years off of his life. His first instinct upon seeing the state that Onyx had been in when he’d arrived had been to gut the werewolf right then and there for allowing it to happen.
Shane had called him, fortunately, if almost too late, so he’d kept the werewolf trainer and bodyguard on — mostly because he provided a stability to Onyx that he needed.
However much Dominic hated it.
The wolf had a ways to go before getting back into his good graces.
“It’s different now,” Onyx insisted. “I just needed to…” He trailed off. “It would be okay. You could put cameras in there or whatever and monitor all of it if you really wanted to.”
He could put in cameras.
As if Dominic hadn’t already done that.
He could open up his tablet and have immediate access to five different feeds that covered every angle of the room. He had not considered the necessity when the room had been originally created, but once the oversight had been identified, it had been quickly remedied.
Practically before the Rayne witch had been out of bed.
That, however, wasn’t the point.
Dominic pursed his lips.
As loath as he was to allow Onyx out of his sight, he was aware that the younger witch was restless at the best of times. After having started to acclimate to having more freedom, spending the day sitting by his desk was leaving Onyx with ever more pent up energy. “I’ll consider it,” he allowed.
“You said you’d give me the world, remember?
” Onyx pointed out. “The world is in my gaming system. I’m not going to do that again.
Shane wouldn’t let me even if I tried. And you’ll be right here at the house, right?
Besides, it’s practice. You have to leave sometime, and it’s not like you can take me with you. ”
Dominic chuckled. “I did say that,” he agreed. He put down his glass and reached out toward Onyx in the familiar gesture to beckon him over.
Onyx went more easily now than he once had — especially when he wanted something, Dominic had noted. He stepped in close, giving Dominic the ability to touch him or draw him in closer still. “Please?” he wheedled.
Dominic caught Onyx lightly by the hips and drew him in, dropping a quick kiss on his mouth. “What else did I tell you, when I said that I would give you the world?”
“That… you’d do it as long as I was in your arms?” Onyx ventured, his brows furrowing.
Dominic hummed an agreement. “Yes, that part. The part where you’re in my arms and in my bed, and I’m showing you just how much pleasure I can bring you when I’m using my fingers on you.”
“Yeah,” Onyx said, his shoulders dropping in defeat.
Dominic’s lips twitched at the dejected sound of that yeah. “Nothing but pleasure, I promise. Have I lied to you about anything I’ve ever promised?”
“No,” Onyx muttered. “That doesn’t mean I like it, though.”
Dominic nodded slightly. “You’ve only experienced the worst of what I had to give. I’ll show you how it's meant to be, how it's done properly.”
He’d have to go carefully with Onyx. When he’d been dosing Onyx with aphrodisiacs and fucking him hard, he’d forced the Rayne witch’s body to respond against his will, and that had definitely left lasting effects.
He was confident that he could still show Onyx just how good it could feel to take his cock… eventually. But he’d settle for fingers to start with.
“If I cooperate, will you let me have tomorrow?” Onyx pleaded.
Dominic chuckled. “Yes, if you cooperate, I’ll let you have time to spend with Shane in the rec room tomorrow.” He pressed another kiss to Onyx’s mouth before releasing his hips and going to move the dishes away so that they could start getting ready for bed.
Onyx helped Dominic, then eyed the bed dubiously.
Dominic went through his typical before-bed routine in no greater rush than any other time he’d done it, despite the delicious anticipation that was coiling inside him.
He’d savored every expression of pleasure and bliss that Onyx had given him, and as he was becoming more involved, Onyx had mostly stopped fighting back his sounds of pleasure as well.
Dominic was collecting all of them. He would be careful, and he would collect even more of his tiger’s pleasure.
He smiled at Onyx’s clear apprehension as he got into bed. “Come here." He held out his hand. “You’re thinking loudly enough that I can hear it from here.”
Onyx huffed in annoyance, but he took Dominic’s hand and let himself be drawn in close. “Yeah? And what am I thinking?” he asked sourly.
“That I’m terrible and you hate me, and that there’s no way that anything can feel good even though I promised, but that you’ll tolerate it,” Dominic answered, kissing him. “Thank you for trusting me with your pleasure, Onyx.”
“You say that like I have a choice,” Onyx retorted.
Dominic’s lips twitched. “I can only give you the world if you choose to allow it, and choose to do so with me instead of against me.”
He kissed the Rayne witch slowly, deepening the kiss in lazy stages, using the familiar contact to help him relax. He waited until Onyx had started to soften in his arms before beginning to stroke the younger witch’s body and add more heat to the kisses.
Onyx was reluctant at first, but then, when wasn’t that true?
Dominic hummed approvingly as Onyx roused to his touches and started squirming under his hands. He moaned in appreciation when Onyx kissed him harder, then pulled back with a grin before starting to kiss his way down Onyx’s abdomen, dragging the Rayne witch’s underwear off while he moved.
He hadn’t given Onyx oral since the first time he’d done so, and this was going to be the easiest way to ensure that he was getting the most benefit out of Dominic’s playing with him.
His breath puffed over the head of Onyx’s leaking cock before he took it in his mouth and slowly sucked him down.
The sounds Onyx made were delightful.
