*Warning: explicit sex scene*

{ KI }

A couple of weeks passed by with Aht's constant visits.

It's magical. I wasn't present until Aht came and gave me a whack of reality. We couldn't be apart from each other for too long, and he often stayed overnight. I noticed that during those nights, he didn't sleep. Not a minute at all.

As I'm deeper in love, I'm deeper in lust too and it's troublesome. I'm happy to feel love for him, but no sexual act involved is frustrating. Because half of the time, his hungry gazes on me and my body seem like I'm his strawberry cake. How could I not give in??  What's worse is that I can't ask him about my body changes because he'd worry. I haven't asked Taq yet since she's traveling.

"Ki, are you reading or staring through the pages?"

"Both, silly."

"Smart-mouth."

"You love my mouth."

He looks up at the sky, tamping down his laughter. Cute! Normally, I would never say these things, but after an eternity, I'm able to let my hair down around him. I can stop lying to myself that I'm just a nice, friendly, sensible spirit ALL the time. I'm allowed to behave differently... Whenever I was out of 'character', Taq and others knocked me back into place, and Fomu couldn't care less. Not Aht. Never him.

He snorts. "I can't win anything against you, can I?"

That does it. I let the book fall, reach over his hands, and yank him towards me, and his chin rests on my cleavage. His blush, his wide, devoted eyes, and his hot breaths on my skin are riling me up. "Surrender to me then, Aht."

His pupils dilate. Oh my word, I think we're already compatible in this area.

"I already do, Ki."

"Not all."

"Not yet."

"Why not?"

"I want you to enjoy my body, which is impossible. Though I know one day, I'll give in and be okay enough with the fact that you couldn't get aroused by me. I'm still quite insecure." He bites his lower lip and pokes my chin. "Wait, okay?"

MAKE LOVE TO ME! FUCK ME! MAKE THE NASTIEST, FILTHIEST, ANIMALISTIC SEX WITH ME!! I want to scream it from the top of my lungs! To him!

Taq, please hurry back. I don't care if I get an earful from her again. "I'll wait."

"Thank you, my Ki."

Flutters when he kisses right above my sternum softly. I straddle him and hug him before he sighs on my hair.

"What time do you leave?" I ask, full of dread.

"Right now actually."

"I thought it's afternoon."

"It is afternoon now."

"Maybe pre-afternoon?"

"Pre—? Hahaha!" He guffaws and kisses all over my face. Mmh...

He'll return to the human world for a week, helping Theo and his family in the inn since the war is getting worse. A lot of stranded foreigners seek refuge in it due to paranoia of experiencing the same as Pearl Harbor. Aht wistfully told me about him before. I want to meet this Theo. He seems like a sweet kid and gave such helpful advice.

"I'll miss you."

He nuzzles my temple. "I'll miss you too. I wish I could bring you with me."

We wished a lot, didn't we? I wonder if he knows about wishes and how strong they are. I'm unsure if The Highness pays mind to this. "You can, Aht. In some way."
