"The reason you feel so weak is because the leyline energy is so strong here, you can bac-"
"I know why I feel this way, Tighnari, I'm not stupid." Tighnari gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, why had he been put with such an annoying scribe.
He understood that it was his job to be here as much as getting rid of this disturbance was to him, but why Alhaitham of all the academia members.
He had been as nice as possible their entire journey, checking up on him where possible and even taking night watches over their makeshift camps so the scribe could sleep. But no matter what he did, the taller man always found room for sarcasm, or a negative comment.
Tighnari knew that if anybody was to shut the cocky man up, it was himself, and he had kept the peace until now but it was finally gaining on him. He was beginning to get tired, limbs heavier than usual the closer to the leyline they got and his patience was wearing thin with it.
"Can you find one damn second during this trip to be nice to me? I'm looking out for you, I'm making sure you stay alive, and yet all you do is ridicule me. You're a brat." Tighnari allowed all of this to flow out, seething, chest raising up and down in a fit of anger.
What a mistake.
His little outburst had taken it out of him more than he had anticipated, he could see Alhaitham's lips moving but he couldn't hear the contents. It was confusing at first, his ears twitching atop his head, a hand reached up to grab one.
Why couldn't he hear?
This had never occurred before, and now that he thought about it, his arm was abnormally heavy too. His eyes became hooded, head joining his arm, gaining weight as he swayed back and forth trying to keep himself up. Tighnari barely registered the soft hand that enveloped his wrist, pulling his hand away from his ear and into the warmth of a rather broad chest.
Had he been thinking straight he would've fought for his dignity infront of the brat that was now supporting him, still saying something he couldn't quite catch. But all of his energy had siphoned from him.
"I can't... hear... you..." He slurred out, and with that, the world went dark.
...........
"Tighnari. Tighnari. Tighnari." It took Tighnari a few seconds to actually process the muffled nagging voice, his hearing was still rather hazy. His nose scrunched up and his ears twitched with distaste over the sound of the material of pillow crunching beneath his head.
He blinked his eyes open, but couldn't help but squint, the lights of soft candle not bright at all but his head was pounding and made it feel as though he was looking into the sun.
The place he was in was not familiar in the slightest, in fact he'd never been in this place before. He panicked for a second, although had no energy to show it, only his frantic eyes and sudden raise in breathing pattern told Alhaitham who sat watch beside him, book in hand, that he was distressed.
"Calm down, fox, this is my house." He mumbled as he rose from his seat, cape gracefully flowing behind him as he walked over to the bed and picked up the drink he'd left on the bedside table. He kneeled, getting on to his knees so he could be level with Tighnari and held it out.
"You lost consciousness after your little paddy, you really outdid yourself with that one. Your temperature was through the roof-" his hand reached out so he could press the back of his hand to his forehead and was visibly surprised, eyes wide. "In fact it's worse now than it was before, here drink this."
"Don't try baby me, brat. You're the reason I lost myself out there, don't play nice with me now." He took the water out of Alhaitham's hold and took a sip, that soon turned into a gulp, and suddenly all the liquid had disappeared from the glass. He felt parched and everything still ached, in fact now that the younger of the two had pointed it out, he felt like he was on fire.
His clothes were sticking to him, gripping at his skin uncomfortably, and he couldn't help but whine in annoyance as he tried to adjust them in a way that didn't feel so horrible. "Just trying to help, although.. I didn't react like this, and you go out there more often than I. Is this... normal?" Tighnari could register what was being said to him but he couldn't answer the question, he was confused himself, agitated too.
It wasn't until he finally turned his head to come face to face with the scribe that it suddenly dawned on him what had truly happened. He was struck by the handsomeness of the man before him, he'd never seen him in such a close proximity, and this way he could see every detail his face had to offer.
He could also take a better wiff of him this way, involuntarily taking a deep breath in near his hair and oh what a mistake to make. It hit him like a truck, a groan vibrating in his chest at the strangely sweet smell he imited, and it went straight down like an electric shock to his already hard dick.
He dropped the cup in his hand, the wooden hitting the floor with a crack as he raised his hand to cover his face, trying to block out the enticing scent that now overwhelmed him. There was no way he was in rut right now, and there was no way Alhaitham had triggered it. The conditions of the forest must've messed with his hormones, that way he had less control over his body than usual, that was it.
That was most definitely it.
"Did you just sniff me?" Tighnari was struck with horror as he watched Alhaitham pick up the discarded cup from the floor with an equally confused look on his face as Tighnari's was before his revelation. He put it on the side table once more and made a move to stand up, lifting his arm comically to take a sniff of himself to make sure he didn't smell bad.
"Don't. Move."
And move Alhaitham did not, one leg bent on the floor and one perched on a foot as if he was proposing to the fox man in his bed. The voice that had left him was that of almost a growl, he'd never heard him speak so deeply, it had caught him off guard. "A mutt like you shouldn't be above me, sit and stay, pup."
Well that certainly was unexpected.
it actually had a blush raise to Alhaitham's cheeks as he looked up to Tighnari he was now sat with his legs over the edge of the bed, spread so he was between them. His eyes were ablaze as he looked down at him and he couldn't help but feel weirdly intimidated and small, abiding to his request and moving so he was kneeling again.
Although he was mostly in the dark about Tighnari's liniage, he was part animal, and he had a decent amount of knowledge about sumeru's wildlife. It wasn't abnormal for them to have heats, he was aware breeding was a big part of an animals life, so the pieces slowly put themselves together.
But shouldn't Tighnari be the one on his knees right now? Submitting himself and desperately awaiting a good fuck?
Sure, he was a man, but if he was having anything of the likes of a heat then it must've meant he could conceive himself, otherwise what would this reaction be for? Why was he the inferior one in this situation? Either way Alhaitham wasn't sure of what to make of the situation.
On one hand he knew this meant Tighnari wasn't in control of himself, and this could be classed to some as him taking advantage of him. But on the other hand, his cock was so hard in his pants right now at this show of power and dominance that he couldn't help but allow Tighnari this dance he wanted to partake in.
"Are you in heat?"
"Heat? No, this is a rut, dumbass." Tighnari scoffed, leaning down to bury his nose into Alhaitham's hair once more to take in that amazing scent again, his sweaty neck pressing into Alhaitham's face in the process. He may not have been a hybrid himself but good lord the alluring scent that emitted from the fox was enough for even his human nose to detect and it was absolutely delectable.
0"Heats are what a female go through, it means they're ready to be bred, to conceive and have a litter." Tighnari delicately laced his fingers through grey hair only to yank it back so Alhaitham's eyes met with his. "A rut is usually a reaction to a heat, a sign I'm ready to mate, ready to fill a tummy full of pups." Alhaitham's eyes widened, taking a while to catch on to what it meant when he would usually deduce an outcome from the start.
Tighnari want to fuck him? Get him pregnant? That wasn't even possible. Not to mention he was a human, he couldn't even have a heat so how could he have possibly set the man off enough that he wanted to impregnate him?
"You have a scent befit of a bitch in heat right now, you know that right? You like what you're hearing don't you?"
"No, I'm confused!"
"But you like it." And with that Alhaitham was thrown backwards, a yelp escaping his lips as his back collided with the cold floor as the cup had before. Tighnari followed suite, standing up before kneeling between the bigger man's legs, bending over him so their faces were mere inches from each other. His eyes were of the darkest green Alhaitham had ever seen, and both their breaths came out in harsh huffs as their crotches touched. Tighnari's tail was wagging like that of an excited dog, thumping against Alhaitham's thigh as they made eye contact.
"If you don't, say no, tell me to stop, because once I start, I can't."
"If it helps you, just get it over and done with."
"I need you to enjoy it too."
"Just fuck me already." And with that lips crashed into each other, teeth clashing with the ferocity Tighnari was trying to kiss Alhaitham. His tongue was ruthless as it forced its way into his mouth, running along his teeth and fighting with his own tongue. It sent Alhaitham dizzy, his hands resting on Tighnari's small waist, moaning against his lips as he ground his erection into the foxes. It elicited a groan from the one on top, reciprocating the movement until both of them were roughly dry humping each other, pulling away from their aggressive kiss to breathe.
Tighnari wouldn't allow any idleness however, his lips trailing down Alhaitham's jaw to press against his neck, sucking and biting where he could, even lapping at the sweat that had formed at some point with a delighted sigh.
"Take- mmm. Take your pants off- mm." Tighnari ordered but didn't cease the movement of his hips, his tail swaying behind him the closer he got to finishing. It was a hard task considering he wasn't given any space at all but Alhaitham complied, hands reaching down to unbutton his pants, a growl coming from the other man out of possession.
"You asked me to, do it yourself if you have a problem." Tighnari backed off after that, looking away in embarrassment as he halted his movements to allow the scribe room to push his garments off.
His mouth practically began to water at the sight of his lengthy, hard cock springing free, fingers twitching as he slithered down his body to come face to face with it. He wasn't supposed to be like this, he needed to show Alhaitham who was boss here, but lord the precum was practically calling to him, and the pure smell of desire radiating from it was all too much to ignore.
Pulsating in his hand, Alhaitham took a few gulps one after the other at the stimulation on his member. He was in awe of the situation, watching as Tighnari gripped it by its base and began to lap up the precum that was leaking from his tip. It caused the sweetest moan to erupt from Alhaitham's lips, dick twitching sadly for more touch, needing the stimulation Tighnari had promised.
With that he grabbed him by the hair and pulled him away, chuckling softly as Tighnari's tongue stayed poking out with the likes of a cat. "Just fuck me already." Tighnari scowled, he couldn't order him around like this, he knew he shouldn't have allowed his guard to faulted, now he thought he had authority.
He retracted his tongue, savoring the taste as he sat up, undoing his own pants enough to free his own dick. Alhaitham was more than taken aback by his size, in fact he was almost on par with him, where he had expected him to be... well.... small. It was bright red and viciously leaking at the tip to the point where it was dripping, clearly ready to enter him at any given moment.
"So needy, but I'm sorry to keep my little whore waiting, should've known you'd get impatient." Tighnari fought back as he grabbed Alhaitham by the backs of his thighs, pushing his legs up until his knees pressed against his chest and the backs rested on Tighnari's small but muscular shoulders.
He could feel the wetness of Tighnari's tip rubbing against his entrance, using his precum to lube his ass, a slight relief that he still had a bit of humanity left in him. "We call this a mating press, it allows me to get deeper, push my cock in further to make sure you get nice and knocked up. Might want to note that down, scribe." Tighnari had whispered, sending shivers down Alhaitham's spine, barely taking in the words in favouring of wondering why the hell hybrid talk was turning him on so much.
He was surprisingly gentle pressing into him at first, his tip stretching his hole out quite generously, perhaps he was actually bigger than Kaveh was, he thought. It wasn't particularly uncomfortable either, in fact it had his own cock jumping with pleasure, and his eyes closing so he could fully immerse himself in the experience.
When he was fully bottomed out he felt full to the brim, something he wasn't expecting with Tighnari of all people, but who was he to complain. "I'll pound you so well, pup, fill you so full of my cum it'll be dripping for days."
Fuck. Fuck fuck fuck.
That's all Alhaitham could think, not sure whether he even needed fucking at this point to come with the filth that dripped from Tighnari's mouth. And with that he began to move, slow at first, the quiet sound of skin against skin resonating around the room before the pace began to pick up. The squelching sound that began to fill the silence had Alhaitham blushing once again, embarrassed but also it sounded so erotic, he was being bred right now, somebody wanted to get him pregnant, in fact...
He wasn't opposed to the idea, he wanted to be bred.
"Mmm. Fuck. Yes Tighnari, I'll carry them so well, give birth to a nice healthy litter for you." He cringed at himself, he didn't know what to say, this wasn't everyday dirty talk. But he hadn't failed, he saw the fire ignite once again in Tighnari's usually soft eyes, growling and grunting animalistically as he thrusted with more fevour, pounding against that spot inside of him that made him see stars.
Alhaitham's mouth was slightly ajar, whimpers and groans spilling out of them against his will as all he could do was take what was given to him, unable to move in the position he was in. His back was burning as his body was jolted with each harsh thrust, rubbing up against the carpet underneath them unable to keep himself grounded.
He could feel that same pressure building up in his abdomen as he felt when they were humping at each other like wild dogs, shaking hands reaching up to hold on to the smaller male, thighs trembling and shaking with the ache of being in this position and the overwhelming pleasure. "Make me cum, please, faster, harder, I don't fucking care just make me cum."
Tighnari wasted no time in moving a willing hand down to Alhaitham's cock, his own trembling fingers wrapping around it to eratically jerk him off. He may have been fucking him to breed him, but he still had the inate desire to please his mate, make sure he was well looked after, even if that meant making him cum with something other than his cock.
"You cum for me, show me what a good boy you are. Show me that you deserve my cum inside of you." God could he get any hotter? Alhaitham had never been dominated like this in his life, tears forming at the corners of his eyes as the build up became too much. Tighnari's thrusts felt as if they were brusing his insides, his cock aching in his hand as he came, cum shooting on to his neck and chest.
It felt as though his soul had left his body, seizing up, head thrown back as he let out a shriek, sobbing pathetically as his strokes and thrusts continued. "Good fucking boy, so good at listening, this is how you should always be. Submitting to me, behaving, letting me use you where I see fit."
"God. Fuck. Too much. Stop please."
"I'll stop when I'm finished pup, dont misbehave now."
This was gruelling, Alhaitham thought, despite it only lasting half an hour or so his body felt like it had been fucked for a week, hands moving from Tighnari to his own face to wipe at the tears rolling down his checks as he sobbed. He pressed a finger to his teeth, biting down on it to suppress any more whimpers or cries that may have left his lips.
"Almost done pup, I promise." He was coming back to his senses the closer he got to his orgasm, Alhaitham had gathered, because his thrusts had slowed and the hand on his cock had disappeared, he was finally showing mercy.
He looked half fucked out and half concerned, his midnight black hair sticking to his forehead and his cheeks bright red with a beautiful shimmer over them due to the perspiration on them under the candle light. Alhaitham could've sworn that sight alone had caused him to fall in love.
He gave one final thrust in to the grey haired man, practically exploding inside of him with a high pitched moan, falling on to his chest. "Dont cry. I'll take care of you, but don't cry pup." Tighnari's bright eyes looked up at him, his soft fingers replacing his own as he wiped his tears and caressed his cheek.
PHis duty was to take care of his mate, not hurt him. Why was he crying? Was this not what he wanted? Had he said something, done something, hurt him? He'd completely forgot he was still inside of the poor man, cum still pumping inside of him in huge excess.
"Dumbass, I'm not crying in a bad way." Way to ruin the moment, but an easy way to snap Tighnari back to reality (mostly). Even though he was beginning to think straight he didn't make a move to pull out, in fact the close proximity to the man made him feel warm inside, dare he say he was enjoying this more than plowing him.
"Just had to go and insult me didn't you."
"You did just destroy my ass."
"...fair enough." He sighed as he nestled his face into his neck, breathing heavily as he involuntarily rolled his hips into Alhaitham's. To his surprise he felt a hand in his hair, that stroked it delicately before trailing to one of his ears, a show of affection he wasn't expecting.
He was no cat but he found a low purr resonating in his chest and throat, humming with delight over the soft massage that his ear was subjected to. "If you ever need somebody for this again, don't do it with anybody else. Tell me."
"Sentimental much? Strange for the all might Alhaitham."
"I'm serious."
Tighnari paused as he lifted his torso so he could come face to face with the man beneath him. He looked into his glistening eyes and he could see nothing but sincerity, taken aback but for some reason... Happy. He'd shared his most vulnerable side with him, in fact this was the first time he had ever given into desire. So he was relieved, perhaps he hadn't made a mistake. Perhaps this journey wasn't a needle in his foot after all, perhaps this was the entire reason fate had put him with such an annoying little shit in the first place. With a sigh and a fake roll of his eyes, but a small barely visible smug smile he nodded.
"Okay, pup, I will."
