Seiichirou was tired from all his paperwork and the stress of the day, especially given Laura’s sad situation, and what they had to plan for going forward. Things were calm for the moment, but a lot was in motion. So when Aresh pouted next to him on the bed, Seiichirou was rather grateful for the distraction.

He leaned up and kissed Aresh’s lips, which Aresh easily pushed back to. Seiichirou wasn’t sure either of them was in proper shape for much, but Aresh always had boundless energy and enthusiasm when it came to sex. Sure enough, when Aresh pushed Seiichirou onto his back and lay atop him, Seiichirou could feel the younger man’s interest through his robes.

Seiichirou felt bad, too: they were meant to be doing more of this during their vacation, not getting distracted with bandit problems and overly magical orphans. Of course, Seiichirou was happy they were helping people, especially kids like Laura, but Aresh had pushed hard for this vacation that was turning out to be anything but.

“We both really are tired,” Seiichirou said against Aresh’s lips. He was disappointed on his own end. He liked his fiancé and wanted to have sex. But he just didn’t have it in him, and he didn’t want to overtire Aresh, especially given what lay ahead.

“Mmm,” Aresh replied as he reached into Seiichirou’s robes and fondled Seiichirou’s cock. “Then we’ll do a little, and more later.”

Seiichirou wasn’t sure he trusted Aresh’s version of a little, but he let Aresh draw their cocks out and rub them together.

With a brief spell, Aresh’s fingers were wet and making the rubbing less painful. He fisted them both so they could thrust into Aresh’s palm.

Seiichirou reached out to rest his hand on Aresh’s, squeezing them together and feeling his heart race. His cock was responding easily to Aresh's familiar touch and the lust being near his handsome fiancé evoked. His right leg lifted up and twitched on every thrust.

Aresh kissed Seiichirou’s neck, and his hips moved more strongly, making the bed creak beneath them.

I’m glad he has magic to clean this up, Seiichirou distantly thought as they both grew more riled up. I do not want to explain this to his parents’ servants. Or Claudio.

Aresh for his part, didn’t seem to care, and just focused on pleasure, which Seiichirou was content to run with.

Later, as they clung to each other under the blankets, warm and content, Seiichirou breathed in Aresh's scent and surrendered himself to proper sleep.


It was Seiichirou who needed the support next, when Aresh joined him in the large bathtub at the Indolark estate. Seiichirou felt even more stressed than usual, with everything going on, and worrying about surviving their trip to Aguiral, with its air heavy with magicules. His mask was good, yes, but he’d need more, and there were people’s lives on the line…

Aresh of course moved closer in the bath, and began chanting the familiar barrier spell, filling the hot bathroom air with even more warmth.

The magic made Seiichirou a bit dizzier, and he worked on breathing evenly. But in moments, Aresh was there to kiss him, swallowing Seiichirou’s fast breaths.

“The warmth is too much,” Seiichirou murmured, but Aresh only hugged Seiichirou closer, lifting him into Aresh’s lap, pressing their cocks together.

Aresh’s steam-wet hair occasionally brushed Seiichirou’s cheeks.

Seiichirou reached out to grasp Aresh’s left arm, holding it for balance as Aresh turned to pepper kisses over the side of Seiichirou’s face. Seiichirou pressed his lips to Aresh’s shoulder, feeling his heart race even more as Aresh kept moving. At least Aresh was real amidst all the uncertainties ahead of them.

He felt Aresh’s fingers  reach down between their legs, pressing up and inside Seiichirou’s entrance.

Seiichirou bit down on Aresh’s shoulder. It had been a while, and he missed this. He really wished they’d had more of it during their trip. A stolen moment here and there wasn’t enough.

Water moved with Aresh’s fingers, pressing deep inside Seiichirou’s body. They’d done this so many times now, the way was rather smooth, but it had been a while, and Aresh took his time teasing Seiichirou open.

The heat was making Seiichirou desperate, and he murmured, “Aresh, ah…”

Aresh seemed to understand, and finally pulled his fingers out. He reached down to lift Seiichirou up even more, before lowering him down on Aresh’s cock.

Seiichirou breathed in sharply as he felt Aresh enter him, and then he gasped as gravity pushed Aresh even deeper inside. It wasn’t the first time they’d done this in a bathtub, but with the steam and the stress, it felt so much more intense.

Aresh rocked himself deeper and then wrapped his arms around Seiichirou’s back, holding him close. His lips went to Seiichirou’s ear, nibbling the sensitive skin there, while still murmuring his spell.

Seiichirou’s right hand rested on Aresh’s left shoulder, squeezing him as he felt Aresh begin to bounce his hips, thrusting tightly in and out of Seiichirou’s body. The layers of the spell wrapped around and inside Seiichirou, coating him completely, and he clung desperately to Aresh. When Seiichirou came, his seed splattered their chests, the space was so tight between them.

Aresh only picked up his pace, making water splash over the sides of the tub and onto the floor.

Seiichirou drifted in the heat, still clinging to Aresh’s back. He felt Aresh come inside him, and the way his own slippery calves tightened around Aresh’s thighs.

He distantly felt Aresh rubbing what might have been shampoo through his hair, and scrubbing his body with soap. After a while, Aresh lifted Seiichirou bodily out of the water, holding him by his hips as water splashed down between them. A murmured spell left Seiichirou’s skin dry but still warm in the steam as Aresh walked them both back to the bedroom.

Seiichirou was placed gently down on the comfortable bed, and he rolled onto his right side, breathing softly.

Aresh settled behind him, pulling the blanket over their legs. He pulled Seiichirou back towards him, pressing his cock back inside Seiichirou’s loose hole.

Seiichirou grumbled and then reached back for Aresh’s left hand, pulling it over his chest. He squeezed Aresh’s fingers. Their rings clinked against each other occasionally.

Aresh’s right arm wrapped around Seiichirou’s lower body, tugging him back towards Aresh on every thrust.

Seiichirou moaned loudly, and he didn’t really know how he’d manage if the walls weren’t soundproof, though thankfully this wing of the house was far from Claudio’s rooms and most of the servants. Every thrust pushed Aresh deeper, sending waves of pleasure through Seiichirou’s body.

Aresh leaned down to press his lips to Seiichirou’s neck, sucking on the skin there, and making Seiichirou gasp.

Seiichirou’s cock was leaking even more and his body shook with pleasure and want. The bed was going to be a mess. He wondered if he should be embarrassed this was Aresh’s parents’ home, but this was all Aresh’s idea, anyway.

When Aresh came, he bit Seiichirou’s shoulder, making Seiichirou cry out, and come spurted from his cock again.

Seiichirou was sweating and gasping as his orgasm rocked him.

Aresh licked the spot he’d bitten. After a while, Aresh turned Seiichirou on his back, over Aresh’s body, so that they could pull their lips together for a kiss.

Between their lips being locked together, Aresh was still chanting, laying a barrier on Seiichirou, and Seiichirou wondered just how much of it was the magic and how much was just Aresh. And how much energy the man would have left over. Aresh was better at controlling it these days, but the worry was always there.

Aresh’s left hand moved down to pull up Seiichirou’s left thigh, let him thrust his cock into the mess of Seiichirou’s ass.

“Again?” Seiichirou murmured, tiredly. He shut his eyes, even as his hips responded wearily to Seiichirou’s movements. He reached out to wrap his left hand tightly around Aresh’s, pulling his leg up more to give Aresh a better angle to send more pleasure through Seiichirou’s body.

Aresh didn’t reply as he focused on the spell, but his right hand squeezed Seiichirou’s hip comfortingly.

They had a long night ahead.
