The kiss brought forth a passion from deep inside him. He was hungry for attention, starved for physical pleasure. His kiss was a demanding, living thing and he battled with James and sought to discover the full feel and taste of his mouth.

Cold hands on his chest brought a shiver rippling down his spine. It wasn't quite like a block of ice running down his chest (followed by a hot mouth, lapping up the icy water) but it was close enough that the association stuck. His muscles tensed, revealing a well-toned body. As James touched him, one of Cain's hands settled on the vampire's shoulder where his thumb could stroke James' collarbone and the other on the side of his face, following the line of his jaw and then swiping into his neat hair, messing it up. He closed his hand and tugged on the hair, testing if James' liked that sort of thing. His focus shifted when James' hands ended up at his belt - a fabric number that was more fashion than practical.

It seemed to him that James wanted it undone, so Cain's hands obediantly went to undo it. Cain wanted the vampire's cool hand on his stiffening rod though, he could feel it straining against his pants. His underwear was as silky as his shirt and Cain shoved his jeans open once the fly was done, adjusting himself so that his erection was available for whatever James saw fit to do with it.

He was breathing hard now, and flustered. With James on his neck now, Cain groaned, anticipating the wonderful sensations that came with the bite. And then they enveloped him and he turned into the sighing, pleading mess he usually was; grinding and touching and groping and rubbing, begging to be fingered, begging to be fucked. He lost his mind in the bite and usually came to his senses in the middle of sex, but that had been okay for him in the past because he'd wanted it.

He'd wanted it now, too, but it ended differently. He calmed down. His erection faded along with the high. Being held against the window with James pressed against him keeping him in place was nice, but also a little embarrasing. He had the impression that he shouldn't apologise though, because even though he didn't remember everything he'd grabbed, stroked or caressed, he was pretty sure James had been into it.

"Wild," he said, though he'd ended up in wilder situations. The abstinance had made this moment all the more sweeter.

Jimmy liked how Cain fought through the kiss, the biting, grabbing passion, excited him, and he gave back every bit of what Cain gave. Some might've called the kiss sloppy, but Jimmy knew better. They were exploring limits, and so far he found none in this pretty little surprise. The move with his hair got a groan of pleasure, and for the tinniest second submission. Jimmy wanted Cain to throw him to his knees, but that would come after the feed. His hair was now messy, and he liked it better than the sanitary fuckery that James wore.

When Cain undid his pants, Jimmy stuck his hand inside the underwear inspecting the rod and liking what he felt. It only made him want to flip with Cain more, and as he led up to the bite, he stroked it gently, not enough to overexcite, but enough to add to the overall pleasure at work. When he bit he released it so they could grind properly. Cain's sudden transformation to greedy sub was almost pornogrpahic, and Jimmy fought the urge to give into Cain's demands. He was playing the long game, and hoped to be fucking him in a few minutes anyway. Once they were all back, Jimmy smiled savagely at the tasty little morsel in front of him.

Wild

He laughed at that, grabbing Cain's hand and putting it back in his hair. He moved in and grabbed his semi stiff self, and began the slow stroking again. His free hand pinched Cain's left nipple.

"If you think that's wild just wait until we fuck each other," he teased, voice breathy and right on the boy's ear. He licked it for good measure. He wondered what Cain would do with that clump of hair. His free hand started to take his own shirt off. "Let's flip," he suggested, wondering if Cain tossed or only caught.

Jimmy's answer was apparent when Cain gripped his hair and turned his head to capture Jimmy's mouth, pressing a hard, demanding kiss on it. He straddle walked Jimmy backwards, using his chest and guiding him to the couch, where he used the momentum to make the vampire fall back on it, with Cain on top. He moved off him a little, only to get Jimmy's shirt off, barely sensible enough to make sure the buttons stayed intact. His groin was throbbing, pulsing with need.

Cain ran his fingernails down Jimmy's bare chest now his shirt was on the floor and he wanted to feel skin on skin, hurriedly unbuttoning his shirt and flinging it aside. Next he focussed on the fly of Jimmy's pants, working studiously at them, wanting them both naked and writhing on the couch. With a quick glance to the side table, he saw the small packets of lube in the candy dish, where they always were, like an open invitation to fuck in the rooms.

This club might pretend it was high-brow, but it still knew what it was really for.

James had been thinking a similar thought to Cain's about the propped up veneer of civility created by the ambiance. The mirrored sex booths were one clear cut example. Yet, here they were; naked, about to be screwing, having just shared a feed. Jimmy snickered as Cain through him onto the couch. James was going to be so mad when they next rose from day sleep. He had ended up being a bad boy after all. His weaker half couldn't ever resist. In the end he always gave way to the tidal wave of sin that was Jimmy.

Now with Cain in position, and now that they were both naked, Jimmy was ready to let loose. Cain pulled off his pants, and then took off his own. Jimmy sat up and grabbed Cain's head, guiding it down south and placing it right at his tip. This was a good place to start.

"Suck me," he commanded, a newfound masculinity and almost working class sound to his speech. He would guide Cain onto him, and then slowly begin to thrust, letting Cain do most of the work for this bit. He'd make it up to him on the back end, literally.

Cain eagerly did as told, returning to his place of good-vampire-pet. It was so easy to slip into these shallow waters. He was comfortable in the role, he didn't need a lot, he was desired, he was first choice and he wouldn't get his heart broken. Cain pushed the idea of relationships out of his head, expecting not to have expectations. It was the simplest way.

His mouth stayed at the tip, lips moving forward and backward over only the head, holding back from going all the way down because he knew it would feel so much better when he finally deep-throated. A few times as he worked the tip, his tongue slid out and curled a path up the underside, and then when he sensed his head might get shoved down, he started lowering himself, engulfing the thickened length at a sinfully slow pace until he was at the base. He stayed there for a while, breathing through his nose whenever he changed angle, making that palate-sucking sound that only the best blows made... then he slicked a path back up, all the way to the tip, and did it all over again. Eventually he just bobbed up and down, figuring either James wanted to blow his load into Cain's mouth or he would stop him before it got to that point and shove his dick somewhere else.

Cain wanted as much as James was willing to give him. He'd take it all.

God this kid had skill. The Malk bit his lip and let his moans and facial reactions let Cain know how good he was. Jimmy would’ve finished with Cain’s lips and throat enveloping him, but much like Cain desired, Jimmy wanted more of the man. He sat up straight again, and gently guided Cain off his dick by the chin, fingers drawing his face towards Jimmy’s to kiss. As his lips moved in tandem with Cain’s, his fingers began wiggling at the entrance to his hole. The kissing continued, including Jimmy sticking two of his fingers in Cain’s mouth, letting those sucking skills get them nice and wet. His free hand grabbed one of the lube packets. Once he had spit and the slippery liquid coating his fingers, he slid them in, finding the soft difference in flesh that let him know he’d found Cain’s spot. He now understood why the human had begged him to finger him during feeding. As he tickled, applied pressure, and opened his partner, his rod twitched with anticipation. Cain was free to do what he liked with it, and he hoped that the boy’s hungry energy would help him take a little charge.

Once he felt Cain was properly opened, he switched their positions on the couch, roughly throwing Cain onto his back and grabbing his legs, hoisting them in the air. He had one more treat before the main event and moved his head down between the man’s legs. His tongue danced around the sensitive spot, and he quickly adapted the in and out motion of a professional tonguing. Cain would see something Jimmy didn’t intend. An even more boyish version of him was in a cheap and dirty room. An older man cried out in a pathetic tone of ecstasy as young James performed this very technique. He’d been thinking about the moment, but the link between them established earlier was still open. Jimmy started his life as a whore, and now Cain knew it. Deep inside James screamed at this fact being shared. He was ashamed of it.

He paid some lip service to the boy’s meat, liking the way it felt in his oral cavity He intentionally didn’t show him the full extent of what he could do with his mouth and throat. He had to give the boy something to look forward to. Once he’d had his fill of pleasing the mortal he placed his erection right at the entrance to Cain’s chamber.

“Tell me what you want,” he commanded, the clear answer being moments away from happening. He liked to hear the boys ask for it though, even beg him for it. Would Cain beg like a good boy? If not Jimmy would have to teach him how. He also lamented that James had made him leave his coke at home. Cain would taste amazing with one or two bumps in his bloodstream.

In the heat of the moment, the image was confusing. He was pretty sure he wouldn't fantasise about James using his amazing tongue on someone else. The level of detail was intense as well as the emotions that went with it. It was enough to break him out of his fugue of pleasure and he frowned before the image went away and he gradually became lost in pleasure once again. James was incredibly generous with his attentions; as much experience as Cain had with vampires and the bite, very few cared enough to pleasure him in such a way. Maybe a third of them would blow him, the other third would only use their hands to get him off, the rest didn't even bother pretending they cared about his experience, they just wanted him to enhance theirs. That had been okay, too, because he was their inferior, but he would no longer actively pursue it. Well... not after tonight, anyway. But he wasn't with someone that was selfish this time, so that made it alright. Didn't it?

The question faded into a place of uncaring when he was kissed and flipped over. He groaned and wriggled as he was prepped, grabbing the cushions of the sofa and squeezing them hard as James played him like music. The order came and Cain gave his answer.

"I want your dick deep inside. I want you to plunge it in now, right now. Don't make me wait," he said, his voice soft and pleading. "Make me cry and scream your name. Fuck me good and hard. Give it... give it to me... give it," he whispered, writhing and trying to impale himself, until James gave in and finally gave it to him.

Cain begged so well. Jimmy liked hearing the pleading, needy, little monster laid out before him. He let him go on and on, the wait not being longer than a minute, but for Cain the vampire guessed it felt like an eternity. Only when the boy was backing up onto him, some ill attempt at impaling himself, did Jimmy finally say, “Well, if you insist.”

He let a glob of spit fall from his lips and onto his member, using his free hand to spread it out. Cain was still wet from tongue and lubed fingers and so Jimmy didn’t reach for a new packet. Besides, he wanted that first moment to hurt a little. What joy was there in pleasure if one didn’t suffer a little first? He drove himself in, feeling Cain’s walls give way. He moaned in glorious exhale as he fully inserted himself. He resisted the urge to go straight to a merciless tempo and cum. It was what Cain wanted, but he’d have to work for that too. Nothing in life was free.

He began to get a good rhythm going, an almost mechanical set of thrusts, aiming slightly up. He grabbed Cain’s legs to better support the human’s body as he thrust into it., and started to speed up, his partner’s moans, pleas and jittery reactions to the fucking all the incentive he needed to increase his pace. The inside of this boy felt amazing and Jimmy already had day dreams of fucking Cain well into the future. He hadn’t come here to top tonight. In reality, he’d been more of a receptive partner in recent years. However, for Cain, he would be anything the boy wanted. The more he was pleased, the more grateful he’d be. The more grateful he was, the more he would trust him later.

He finally reached the merciless tempo Cain had requested, and he was impressed that Cain could take such a repeated beating. He wasn’t often allowed to fuck as hard as he was currently, and as Cain screamed, called out his name, and whimpered Jimmy felt an odd sense of peace he usually only got from hard drugs. The human had to be in that threshold between pain and pleasure, and Jimmy liked he couldn’t tell exactly how much was which. The profesional fucking machine looked down at his partner, the vampire’s smooth body being the resting place for the human’s thick thighs. He caught Cain’s eyes, and the human might finally see that this was not the kind hearted doctor he’d met at the beginning of the night. This man was a hungry, manipulative beast, and he’d eat Cain alive till he was hollow. Perhaps the human would see nothing of the sort. Jimmy was amazed what he could get away with in the throes of passion. He finished, warning Cain, but not pulling out even if the other requested it. He’d pretend not to hear if that was the case. After all, it wasn’t like he could get him pregnant so what did it matter?

Cain hadn’t finished yet, and Jimmy had an idea. “When I tell you, rub yourself till you finish. Trust me.” With that, Jimmy pulled himself out and moved down to Cain’s leg. The boy’s pulse was wild, the beating drum music to Jimmy’s ears. He kissed the spot so near the groin and uttered, “go,” before biting down. He didn’t even need the blood, but there would be no way that Cain wouldn’t finish now, and it may even be the best orgasm of his life if he’d never finished this way before. Once he had taken a small amount more of the human’s blood, he sealed the wound. Now, naked, wet, and momentarily satisfied, Jimmy sat on the ground near where he’d just bit. He said nothing. He didn’t need to. He knew it was good.

A slave to both their desires, Cain mumbled his agreement and placed his hand upon his throbbing member. It took a strong sense of willpower not to start straight away. He could feel semen leaking out of him while he waiting for James to do whatever it was he was going to do - he was definitely crawling downward.

James gave the order and Cain started stroking. All thoughts flew out of his head when his thigh was bitten. He'd experienced it before and it had to be one of his favourite things. James was certainly skilled when it came to sex and biting and Cain wondered if that meant he'd be a fling or something more. Maybe he would be someone's favourite again. It hadn't worked out with Kerr. It hadn't worked out with David. Both of them had someone else in their lives. Maybe James was free.

The idea of having something more was enough to bring him to his shuddering peak, spurting onto his stomach and his body wracked with spasms. "Jaaaames," he sighed, his free hand weakly clawing at the couch, looking for something more substantial, more meaningful to hold.[color]

Once they had both spilled their seed, Jimmy plopped onto the couch next to Cain. The mortal's warm body would feel nice after all that. physical activity. At first, he reached for his pants to fish for a pack of smokes, but then he froze. The next thing Cain would see is that he looked around the room for his glasses instead. The good doctor appeared very nervous and looked at Cain with a mixture of guilt and appreciation. They were now in a cuddle formation, with James's legs wrapped up in the humans. He moved Cain's arm around his shoulder, and laid the human's head on his other one. He seemed different again, more like when they'd first met.

"Terribly sorry," the posh accent said. "I don't know what came over me. Sometimes i just lose myself in those kinds of things. Do you know what that's like to lose yourself to something that feels so good?"

James played with Cain's hair and smiled at the mortal. He hoped Cain would still want to go to the gallery with him. Sometimes boys seemed put off with how he could be sexually. Deep down Jimmy snickered. He'd got a new toy, and it was obvious James liked him too. This was going to be so much fun.

Cain held James while being held himself, liking that the vampire was staying with him for a while. He could feel his heart pounding, gradually slowing down. His skin was hot and clammy from the exertion and the orgasms and James was a treat to hold. Not so cold... more room temperature. Cain's blood had done the trick.

He laughed softly at the question posed to him. Was it supposed to be ironic or rhetorical? He answered it anyway. "I have an idea."

He liked the feel of James' fingers running through his hair and brought his breathing under control. Soon after his heart slowed and it was nice just to lie here. He stared at James' face, committing it to memory as well as he could. The lights continued to dance over his face, gradually cycling through a rainbow of colour. Cain liked the blue on him best.

He moved to place kisses on James' lips, feeling happy.

James liked the sweet kisses offered by Cain, and gave them back just as sweetly. He could be physical too, although less rough than his dark passenger. He took it as a good sign that Cain wanted more of him. So many boys were just done with the vampire once the feed and fuck was over. This generation of human was by far the worst, so Cain was a rare treat. The word favorite rung once more in his ears, and he felt it connect to Cain in general. He didn't understand the auditory hallucination not making sense. Was this one of the bullshit ones? Was this a clue not to let Cain be someone else's favorite? He had more questions than answers, but the vampire felt he'd get an opportunity to answer them if he kept seeing the sexy man.

Cain's body felt so warm and he wanted the feeling to continue. Still, moderation and limits kept him James, and so he knew he wouldn't be bringing Cain home, not tonight at least. The lights bathed Cain in red, and for some reason that felt correct. Something about his aura screamed crimson, and while he didn't understand it yet, he felt it was an important clue. This time the sight had been clear. It was funny how it was never predictable. He pulled away only to grab a small hand towel next to the lube packets. He cleaned himself before wiping Cain down, and then neatly folded the dirty rag and placed it back where he'd found it. After that sat and kissed  for a few minutes, James decided to be bold.

"Can I take you to the gallery this week? I want to see you again," he disclosed, nervous for the human's reaction. "I'm looking for a steady thing," he added, smiling at Cain to let him know it was him the vampire was looking to fill that role.

The invitation caused his heart to swell and his spirits to soar. It took the sting off the fact he'd gone back to old habits as soon as someone gave him a sideways sexy look. He'd chosen a vampire with more discretion though, rather than going to the first available one. Or maybe he was kidding himself because James had been the first available one. Cain would've gone up to him whether he was being discerning or not. What did that mean, then? He'd just got lucky? In a different sense?

"I'd love that," Cain said, the delay between question and answer not even a second long. Thoughts and feelings took no time at all. He'd interjected his answer between James' request and his confession. He was looking for a steady thing? "I'd love that, too."

How eager he sounded. Inside he quailed at the idea that James would think he was too keen. They were supposed to get to know one another. If Cain agreed to everything - to the date, to the steady thing - then it would sound like any vampire could fill that role. It was kind of true... Cain wanted a vampire boyfriend after all, but he would no longer be treated badly for it. He felt a little better about himself.

"Should I put my number in your phone?" he asked, not brave enough to ask to swap numbers but hopeful that James would offer. It was that hope that made Cain reach for his pants that had ended up on the floor and fish out his cell.

James smiled and kissed Cain mid answer, excited that his request for a date would be accepted. He wasn't sure if his nervousness was actually his or Cain's, as they had just finished connecting in body, and had been connecting in mind for most of the night. He'd see what exhibits the gallery was currently hosting. It was nice to have an actual date, and the potential for a steady thing. Then they could go to his place to feed and have more sex. James could tell this pattern of thought would end up with them inside each other again. Cain sobered him up when he asked if he could put his number in James's phone.

"Oh, of course," he said, reaching for his pants to fish out his phone. He grabbed the cigarettes too, but then thought it would be impolite to smoke in such a small room. He'd save them for when he stepped outside. He handed his phone to Cain, and while the human typed in his digits the vampire pulled a business card from his wallet.

Humane Solutions
Dr. James Barrow, PhD.

A phone number was at the bottom, along with an address in the North District. "I never remember my number, but that's my cell right there," he said pointing to the card. "Call or text me if you feel like talking, and it doesn't have to wait till we go to the gallery."

He had to go to the Academy tomorrow night to meet with Mr. Samson and discuss his duties as a teacher and counselor, so the visit would have to wait at least a night or two. He wondered if he should tell Cain he'd be teaching there, but that would require the doctor to tell him he'd seen Ben's face when he first looked at the boy. He wasn't ready to tell Cain about his... abilities.

Cain took the card and made sure to insert it into his wallet, filling up the slot beneath his credit card. A few loyalty cards filled some of the other spaces but that was all. Cain realised his wallet showed he didn't get out much. He didn't even like art galleries or museums; it seemed weird to look at dead things or a bunch of paintings all at once. But he liked the Qamar because it was different and had no sense of order. Turning a corner in that place could lead you looking at anything.

"Thank you," he said, feeling suddenly awkward and shy. He hastily got dressed and waited for James to be presentable. Once the vampire was also dressed, he headed for the button that would unlock and open the glass door. Before hitting it, he glanced back and gave James a wide smile. "See you," he said, then hurried away before he said or did something to ruin the moment.
