Red Wine and Moonlight

Every beat of the young Armada's heart felt exaggerated and intense, pounding in his head like a drum, every breath taken shorter and hotter while he waited for Lillith to permit him to have what he wanted or deny him. Beneath him, his silver gilded alabaster goddess smiled up at him with a look that melted his heart. Just as the girl wanted her boy, so too did the boy want his girl. He'd never felt a stronger need, a primitive desire to have her in the way a brute was meant to have a fae. Romulus needed Lillith. He needed her like he needed air to breathe, water to drink, food to survive. It was a primal need hardcoded into his genetics over millions of years.

Then she said the words he longed to hear. "Yes, Roman." The fire in his belly surged into an inferno,  his breath hitching when she squeezed her limber forelegs around his neck and clung tighter to him. A twinge of nervousness touched him, but it was almost entirely excitement that consumed the young wolf. In her eyes, he could see the same anxiousness, but also the same enthusiasm. Lillith wanted this as badly as he did; she wasn't just conceding to give him what he wanted. This desire was mutual, and she wanted to feed it as much as he did. Lil urged him to go slowly, and Roman grinned back down at her, dipping his muzzle and letting pink tongue snake from between dark lips to glance over her chin. "As slow as you want..." he whispered back, husky voice now heavy with wanton desire. Molten silver eyes held Lillith's while he shifted to align his hips with hers, one larger paw sliding down the curves on her side to hook beneath her waist, lifting her into a more comfortable position for them both.

"You set the pace, Lil. Whatever you want, you tell me." Slower, faster, softer, harder, whatever Lillith desired, he would perform. Tonight was about the culmination of their love for one another. They were both exploring uncharted territory and learning new things, but they were doing it together. Lil would be the guide and Roman would be the conductor. Moving his lips to brush over hers one last time before their lives changed forever, Roman held Lillith's garnet gaze while he pressed his hips to hers and sank within her, making them become one. Teeth gritted and growls of pleasure escaped the brute, but he didn't dare look away from her. He wanted to watch the reactions of his lover while they both reached new highs together. Working in tandem, the two of them would create the most beautiful music together, writing a love song beneath the swirling auroras and streaking stars that was theirs alone.
