Thief of Twilight

Part One: Chapter 20

It's so warm. I feel...so relaxed. What is this? It's so soft. It's squishy yet firm. It feels like...fluff but it's smooth like silk.

My eyes slowly opened to an ivory canvas. Yohan's chest rose and fell with each breath he took. My head was on his arm and he still had his other arm draped over my waist.

Did he stay in this position the whole night? His arm must be stiff. It's got to be sore from the weight of my head after all those hours. I slowly sat up and pressed my fingers to his skin. There's definitely muscle in there. His chest is so wide and big. Like wide pillows. He's a really big guy. It's surprising how much is hidden beneath his robes.

My eyes lowered to his nipples. They're so perky. Like cherry blossoms in the snow. Glancing up, I watched as Yohan slept so peacefully. I pressed my finger to the top of his nipple before pushing it into his chest.

"It's like they're begging me... to play with them..." I took back my finger and watched his nipple lifted up to its original perkiness. It reminded me of the soft pink tea cookies that the servants give me. I pinched his nipples between my fingers and gave them a twist. Does he feel pain? Does he like pain? He isn't waking up. Maybe I'm not twisting them hard enough.

"I wonder...what you like..." I glanced up to his lips which were just as pink as his nipples. He does have a nice face and cute lips. His lashes are longer than I thought. I stroked his cheek before pressing my thumb to the center of his lips. My thumb pulled down his lip revealing his pink gums and milky teeth.

"They're perfect..." my finger slid across his lip before I noticed his canine teeth. They're sharp like the fangs of a vampire. I turned his head to see the other side. I've never noticed his teeth before. I wonder what it would feel like...if he bit me. If he were to dig his teeth into my skin. Would it hurt? Would it be a long-lasting pain or instant?

"Are you awake?" his groggy voice filled my ears. His eyes slowly opened.

"Your teeth are so sharp..."

"Only my canine teeth."

I wonder. "Open your mouth."

Yohan slowly parted his lips, opening his mouth for me to see. I ran my finger along his teeth before pressing the middle of my thumb to the tip of his canine tooth. He playfully bit my finger before taking my hand in his large palm.

"Are you always this lively and inquisitive in the morning?"

"Only when something interests me."

"Do I interest you?"

Interest? I don't know. Excite? Possibly. He is the first demon that I have ever met. I don't exactly know that much about him other than the fact that he's an alpha wolf demon.

"Do all alphas have sharp canine teeth?" I questioned.

"No, but it is common."

Without thinking, I climbed on top of him. I positioned myself on his pelvis pinning his hands above his head. His wrists were massive but he didn't try to fight back or push me away. What more can I do to him? What are his boundaries? Does he have any?

"How far can you go?" I asked. "Do you have a limit?"

"Limits are for humans." he said.

That's right. He's a demon. I dragged my hands down the length of his arms, then his shoulders, and chest. My thumbs lingered on his lips.

"Yohan...if I wanted you to bite me, would you?"

He thought for a moment. "No."

"Why not?"
