Illario Appreciation Week, Day 4

For yesterday's prompt, I did 'semi-public sex'. Here's a little sneak peek of Illario and Nyx working one another up during a party.

“What can I say? You have an effect on me,” Illario murmured in response. His hand traveled dangerously low on Nyx’s backside and the elf did his best not to react when Illario grabbed a handful of his ass with a possessive growl. A small gasp flew from his mouth, but he was quickly silenced when Illario’s lips found his in a bruising kiss. Nyx was extremely grateful he let Illario take the lead, as he surely would’ve faltered. Illario just knew all the ways to unravel him, piece by piece, until he was nothing but putty in his hands.

The man devoured his mouth, leaving no room for argument about how he was feeling currently. Nyx clung onto him desperately, fingers tangling tightly into his hair. Illario forced his way into Nyx’s mouth, tongue meeting his before sliding along the back of his teeth. In the back of his mind, he was vaguely aware of eyes on them, and the fact that they were still moving, still dancing. It reminded Nyx that while Illario belonged to him, he was still trained in the art of seduction. He could probably do all sorts of things to someone while still keeping in step with the dance.

The elf whimpered against his lips and Illario retracted, dark eyes meeting his with a hunger that threatened to consume Nyx on the spot.

“Careful,” Illario growled as he trailed wet kisses across his jawline to his ear, “keep that up and I won’t be able to control myself.” He sunk his teeth into Nyx’s earlobe and the elf let out another whimper in reply.
