Prince of Lies

Chapter 15

Haruto wasn't exactly sure when he'd drifted off. Was it during or after Jace spent the past few hours learning and kissing every inch of his body, even his useless legs that could hardly feel the incredible sensation, and another place that- well, when Jace began exploring there with his mouth, Haruto was pretty sure his soul left his body.

Apparently it was revenge for making a fool of Jace in the bath. Though Haruto didn't see it as making him a fool: the sounds that Jace made, pulling Haruto ever closer and letting him leave kisses on his muscular shoulders and torso until he lurched forward, squeezing Haruto's waist and behind so hard it hurt- and groaned, long and low into his shoulder as release claimed him.

Haruto was really proud of himself for that.

Now he awoke pressed into Jace's chest, both of them wearing only their birthday suits as they held each other close.

I'm in Heaven. Haruto thought. For once, Jace isn't afraid of holding me close. And his kisses-

A pleasant shudder down Haruto's back.

We didn't even have sex. And I don't want to. But still... I'm in Heaven. He loves me so much.

I love him so much.

Haruto smiled and rolled onto his back. "Morning, Jace."

He groaned. "It's dinnertime, Haruto."

The prince just grinned, putting his hands on either side of Jace's face. "Good evening, Jace."

Jace turned his head and kissed one of Haruto's palms. "Good evening, Haruto."

Jace surprised Haruto by continuing to kiss up his arm until he was lying over him, kissing his lips that were still swollen.

"Is this okay?" He murmured.

"What?"

"Is it okay for me to be on top of you like this? I want you to be comfortable. I don't want to remind you of.... anything."

"I'm alright, Jace." Haruto assured him. "Because I know you would never hurt me."

Jace smiled again and leaned down to kiss his neck. The love bite he had left on Haruto's neck was still yet to close, and that made him feel a bit bad.

Until he remembered how many love bites Haruto had left on him.

"What would you like for dinner?"

"Well, since we're here on Corvia..." Haruto grinned widely. "I want rice noodles."

"Rice noodles." Jace echoed, tracing Haruto's chest with a finger. "Anything else?"

"Some kind of meat."

"Got it." Jace kissed Haruto's cheek and stood up. "You rest here, and I'll see what I can do."

Haruto smiled as he watched the love of his life get up and lazily dress.

He looks good disheveled.

"Do you have to put on a shirt?" Haruto asked, sitting up on his arms. The sheet mercifully kept his lower body covered, but Jace knew exactly what was being hidden.

I almost can't stand it.

"If I'm going outside, yes."

When Haruto pouted some more, Jace rolled his eyes and decided only to pull on a jacket, still keeping the middle of his chest exposed.

"I'll be right back." Jace assured Haruto, leaning down to kiss him one last time before leaving.

Haruto rolled across the bed after that, pulling on Jace's shirt that fell like a tunic on his small frame.
