Ophanim
Even with the sharp edges to her words and the ravenous hunger on her tongue, he’s a slave to her love and her touch. He smiles softly when she finally kisses his cheek and his heart quivers when she shows concern for him. Ophanim melts in the warmth of her love and it shows in the way he reaches out to press his lips against her skin just as soon as he stops touching him. They should be pressed against one another every second of every day, he thinks, greedy for her like no other. The plague is still incubating within his veins but it’s the furthest thing from his mind when she’s around. Soon, he’ll cough up blood and he’ll have to think of a way to hide it from her. But today is not that day.
Already he replays her words on a loop as he feels a shiver racing up his spine. More than enough. “I’m so glad you’re in my life,” he admits while she hides her face in the white and gold of his mane. His words are muffled against her skin but he pauses when she says his name, draws his attention to her face while she speaks. His cheeks feel warm but the burning is entirely different from a blush as he stares into her eyes. The angel boy leans in and kisses her, careful and gentle on the corner of her lips. “We belong together.”
He closes his eyes and kisses from her cheek, then down the back of her neck until he reaches her shoulders. Their bodies already know that they were meant for this, meant to get tangled to one another in some beautiful mess. Ophanim pulls his wings back and lifts himself carefully, so slowly on top her. His whole life has been spent trying to find where ever he belongs and he fits, he fits so perfectly there against her back. His lips trail along her spine when he finally moves his hips forward.
The gods used to wage war for love like this, for devotion that ran as deep. His kisses grow clumsy all across her shoulders while his legs hold her waist tight beneath him, sweat shimmering across his gold and white body. She tastes like rosewater and gold leaf all across his lips. Time loses all meaning for him and the sounds of the world are drowned out by their heavy breathing until only they exist. Just them and this perfect harmony.
Ophanim presses his face against her as he finally stops, chest heaving as he shivers. Slowly, just as carefully as before, he slides off her back and lets his wings hang lazily over his sides.
“I’m so in love with you, Starsin.”
