Chapter 18: Eleanor - The Dragon's Muse

Chapter 18

Eleanor

This lilac dress must be lucky, because today is one of the best days of my life. Not only did book club go seamlessly, but the community wants more. My brain is already spinning with ideas for different book picks and themed events, perhaps even craft days too.

The prospect of coming out here every Friday night after work—schedule and workload willing—and staying all the way until Sunday evening, perhaps even Monday morning, it has me feeling all sorts of giddy. Who knew my life could be this good? That I could be this happy?

A tiny part of me, hidden all the way in the back of my logical brain, is telling me that this can’t last forever, that something is going to go wrong, but I refuse to accept that. Right now, I’m going to stay present in this particularly delightful day and blissfully bask in what I consider to be my nirvana.

From my position on the couch, I steal yet another glance at Shinsu, taking in the concentrating furrow of his brow as he leads Bodin, Ren, and Arran on their Knights and Castles campaign across the realm to slay the monsters and rescue the princess. I’ve been pretending to read all evening, but I’ve secretly been listening in on them, enjoying the way Shinsu narrates and the clever way his brain works with this world he’s designed and the challenges his knights have to overcome.

It’s fun seeing this part of him, of witnessing him in his creative element, especially after everything that transpired between us last night. He can be so literal at times that I didn’t know he had such a gift with words. Watching him hold the guys captive with the way he weaves the narrative, and considering how I felt when my body became the object of his inspiration—his muse—I wonder if Shinsu has ever considered writing his own book. It’s something I want to suggest to him later.

Shinsu glances up at me and catches me looking at him. His light eyes drag over my face, going lower until they rest on my breasts. The intensity in his gaze makes my heart race, my pussy giving a quick pulse at remembering his earlier promises for what to expect once the guys are gone.

I quickly cross my legs in case I start broadcasting the direction of my thoughts to his friends too, just as Arran finishes telling the guys about something his knight is doing.

The longer the game continues, the more distracted Shinsu gets. A couple of times, the guys have to repeat what they said, subtly redirecting Shinsu’s focus to them when he goes silent while his attention is on me.

My book is simply a prop to hide behind at this point as our stolen glances turn into heated stares, my body growing hotter with each lengthened perusal Shinsu gives me from across the room.

Closing my eyes, memories of last night flood my mind, and I mentally trace my body as I try to recall each comment, each compliment, as Shinsu showered me with praise. I think about the sensation of his hand, the whisper of his words, the feeling of surrender as Shinsu guided me over the edge and I truly realized I was in love with him.

My eyes flow open at the thought of telling him that, only to find Shinsu already watching me.

Our gazes meet.

They hold.

Shinsu’s jaw ticks as the moment stretches, his chest rising and falling faster and faster.

My heart speeds up too and my breathing grows shallow as Shinsu’s eyes darken, his scales becoming more pronounced on his arms and his neck.

Ren pushes his chair back. “Thank you for a fun evening, but we’ve got to go. We’ll pick this up again next Saturday.”

Bodin looks at Ren, then at Shinsu, and also stands up. “Thank you for a delicious meal. Good to see you again, Eleanor.”

Arran takes a minute to catch up, then finally pushes his chair back too. “Oh, I see. Have a good evening.”

Shinsu doesn’t say anything as they leave. He remains seated as more scales appear, his gaze still firmly locked on mine as the guys’ voices grow fainter outside.

Every second that passes, my pussy gets wetter, my nipples hard as they push against the fabric of the dress. My whole body is strung tight, anticipation coiled as I wait for Shinsu to set me free.

“Nori,” Shinsu nearly growls, his chest heaving as he takes a long sniff. “Is your cunt feeling needy?”

“Yes,” I whisper back, my pussy feeling unbearably empty.

“What do you need, my muse?”

“You.”

In a flash, Shinsu is up and rushing across the room, his mouth crashing against mine as he pulls me into his arms. He lifts me up by the back of my thighs, wraps my legs around his waist, and then he’s carrying me up the stairs, his steps hasty but sure as I kiss, lick, and nibble on every inch of skin I can reach.

Shinsu lays me down on the bed, his mouth trailing down my throat and over my chest before he pulls my dress down, freeing my breasts. “Look at these gorgeous tits,” he says, lowering his head and sucking a nipple into his mouth.

I gasp at the sensation, my back arching. “That feels so good, Shinsu.”

“I love the way my name sounds when you say it,” he rasps, moving up to kiss me again while his hands knead my breasts.

“Shinsu. My Shinsu,” I repeat against his lips as my hands pull him to me, needing him closer.

His voice is pure gravel. “Fuck, yes. Tell me exactly what you want, Nori. Tell me where you need me.”

I don’t have to think about my answer. No doubt exists in my mind that Shinsu Beck is what I want most in this world, to be with him, to love him, to make a life together.

Taking his face between my hands, I whisper, “Make love to me, Shinsu. Make me yours.”

“Fuck,” Shinsu breathes out shakily. “I’ve been waiting for you for so long. If I make love to you now, there’s no going back. Losing you again will destroy me, Nori.”

My smile is small but sure. “You’re not losing me again. I’m here. I love you. I want you. Forever.”

Shinsu’s eyes widen and he lowers his forehead against mine. “I love you too. So much. You consume my thoughts every second of every day.” He lifts up only far enough to read my expression. “But I don’t deserve you. I still need to explain what happened all those years ago and why I left like that. I need your forgiveness before I can truly receive your love.”

Pressing a finger against his lips, I say, “You can tell me later. I’ve already forgiven you. I trust you, Shinsu.”

“Fuck, Nori. That means so much to me. I promise to make it up to you. But first, let me show you how much I love you.”

Together, we stand up and slowly undress each other. Our moves are meticulous, thoughtful, and reverent as our hands map every dip, every curve, taking care with each piece of clothing.

I undo the buttons of Shinsu’s shirt, one at a time, as our gazes stay locked. With each new inch of skin revealed, I press kisses against the exposed flesh, over scales rippling under my touch, taking my time to appreciate Shinsu’s beauty.

Adoration is in Shinsu’s touch as his mouth moves over my shoulders, my breasts, down my stomach, before my dress lands in a pool on the floor and I’m completely naked before him.

“You’re so beautiful, Nori. I don’t think I really knew desire until you came into my life again.” The complete devotion in Shinsu’s eyes as he stares at me makes me feel like the most important person in the world, confidence flooding my veins, every last hint of self-consciousness drowned out while I remain the object of his desire.

Slowly, I reach for the button on Shinsu’s waistband. He takes shallow breaths as his eyes stay focused on mine and his pants rustle to the floor.

I reach down to cup him, but when I don’t make contact with a cock—or two—Shinsu wraps his hand around my wrist, effectively halting my movement.

“Do you know about dragon anatomy, my sweet Nori?” Shinsu asks, rubbing a thumb across the inside of my wrist.

“I tried to read up on it,” I admit. “But there’s not much information online.”

A small smirk pulls on one side of Shinsu’s mouth. “We’re very secretive creatures since there aren’t many of us. I’ll tell you everything you want to know about us soon, but first, let me show you what dragon cocks look like.” Smirk fading a little, Shinsu adds, “Please don’t be alarmed. You don’t have to do anything you’re not completely comfortable with.”

Tracing the scales over his heart with my free hand, I promise, “I love you just the way you are. A cock, or cocks, don’t change anything.”

“Okay.”

The tips of my fingers graze against a slit, and my brows pull together as I try to make sense of what I’m feeling. Looking down, a thin snakelike tail protrudes from the slit and wraps around my finger.

Oh. This is… unexpected.

Does Shinsu not have a cock? Was that some false rumor online? I’ll love him regardless. This is just going to take a minute to process.

Before I have the opportunity to reassure him, a second tail joins the first and I suck in a breath as this one also curls around my finger.

This was probably what the articles said about two. Maybe they can stimulate my clit? I’d be open to experimenting.

Placing a knuckle under my chin, Shinsu tilts my face up. “These are my cock whiskers. They resemble my dragon’s sensory whiskers that we use to gauge irregularities in the water, helping us sense any threats. They’re prehensile and can add extra stimulation where you most desire.”

“Kind of like antennae? Are they sensitive?” I ask, rubbing my thumb over them.

A shudder rolls down Shinsu’s body, scales trailing in their wake before congregating around his slit. “Very,” he answers huskily.

I’m already thinking about what I can do that’ll make him shudder even more, but then Shinsu holds my hand still. Slowly, a much larger shape fills my palm, my jaw dropping as it grows longer and Shinsu guides my fingers across the smooth scales covering the lower half. I try my best to keep my eyes on Shinsu’s, but when he moves my hand lower, and a second cock joins the first, I can’t help the way my gaze drops to see what he’s been hiding.

“So, does this count as two cocks or four?” I ask, letting my fingers explore the textures, slowly rubbing up and down each length.

“Two cocks,” Shinsu pants. “And two cock whiskers. But don’t feel like you need to take all, or any.”

“I don’t know if I can take both tonight, but…” Feeling shy, my voice trails off.

“But?” Shinsu prompts gently.

Knowing we promised each other complete honesty, I share the secret activity I’ve been exploring at home. “I may have read somewhere that dragons have two cocks, so I bought some toys to practice with. You’re bigger than my toys, but I know I can take you. All of you.”

“You did? You can? You want?” Shinsu stumbles through the words, a smile flickering across his face.

“Yes,” I say, moving around him, enjoying how confident I feel right now. “Now sit down and let me make you feel good. Tonight you’re my muse.”

“Fuck, Nori. I love you,” Shinsu whispers with utter awe as he lowers himself onto the bed.

Kneeling between his legs, I let my hands drift up his thighs, watching the scales trailing my touch. I wrap my hand around Shinsu’s lower cock, monitoring his expressions as I apply some pressure. The moment his jaw lowers with pleasure, I lean forward and suck his other cock into my mouth.

Both of Shinsu’s hands fly into my hair, gently holding my curls back as he watches me, looking astonished at how much I’m enjoying giving him pleasure. I don’t want to think of others who came before me, but something tells me that Shinsu hasn’t experienced much of this. One thing I do know is that from now on, he’ll always benefit from having my complete devotion.

My pussy is wet, dripping down my inner thighs as I alternate between his two cocks. I let his whiskers wrap around my index fingers and suck them into my mouth too, relishing in the way the breath stutters out of Shinsu.

When I notice the way Shinsu’s stomach tenses, he pulls me lightly off him. “Nori, please let me fuck you. You smell so good and I’m not going to last much longer. I need to be inside you. I’m on birth control and tested. I can show you my—”

“Yes. Fuck me, please.” The request isn’t even fully out of my mouth before Shinsu picks me up and lightly tosses me onto the bed.

Lowering himself between my spread legs, Shinsu kisses me like his breath depends on it while gliding his cocks through my arousal. A whimper crawls up my throat as his whiskers circle my clit and my back bows, wordlessly begging for more.

Shinsu holds my gaze as he reaches down and notches a cock against my opening, and I tilt my hips up to meet him. I have longed for him for so many years, the thought of our bodies now finally connecting the way our hearts have, has me thanking fate for allowing us to cross paths again.

The air is heavy, time stops, our breaths mingle as Shinsu slowly pushes forward, my life feeling like it’s hovering on the precipice of something big. There’s no going back to a time without Shinsu, no going forward without him. He is my destiny.

Shinsu fills me inch by delicious inch, while his other cock glides forward against my clit. My breath shudders at the sensation of his smooth scales rubbing against two of my most sensitive spots, but we never break eye contact. I want to witness every single second of Shinsu’s beautiful face as he claims me for the first time.

When he’s fully seated, Shinsu lets out a deep grunt of satisfaction and presses his lips to my forehead. “You feel so good, my muse. Pure perfection. I thought I could write you poems before, but you deserve entire novels.”

Even though my heart feels full, my pussy feels needier right now. I squirm against him. “That’s very romantic. But can you do that later? I need you to move. Please.”

A self-assured chuckle rolls out of him. “Hold on.”

Shinsu pulls back before he slams into me again, one cock in my pussy, the other caressing my clit. My fingers claw at his back, glad for his scales so I don’t leave any marks as he thrusts into me over and over again.

My moans build, becoming louder and louder with each powerful drive of his hips, but when his whiskers join his cock inside me and push against my front wall, it’s game over. I cry out at the new sensation, the pleasure so much stronger than anything I’ve ever felt before.

My orgasm crashes through me in a wave of ecstasy, reverberating from the base of my spine down to the tips of my spasming toes. Shinsu keeps going, guiding me through it, praising me, telling me how beautiful I am and how much he loves me.

I brush some loose strands out of Shinsu’s face as he rolls his hips in slow, deep strokes, letting me come back to myself while his body teases of more to come.

“Wow,” I breathe. “I know I loved you before, but wow.” I was not adequately prepared for how good two cocks would feel. But adding those cock whiskers is a whole game changer. I’m just glad I never have to settle for anything less again. Shinsu is mine. Forever.

“You’re okay? It’s not too much?” Shinsu asks.

“Never.”

“Think you can give me one more?”

“Come with me this time,” I say, and push against his shoulder.

Realizing what I’m trying to do, Shinsu rolls onto his back and I brace my hands on his chest as I start riding him in earnest. I find a rhythm that soon has him panting, then I spit in my hand, giving his other cock just as much love the one inside of me is getting. Shinsu plays with my breasts, tweaks my nipples until I cry out, my pussy squeezing around his cock.

Sensing I’m close, Shinsu holds onto my hips as he drives up into me, harder and faster, bouncing me on his cock.

My pleasure builds into a giant peak, then I’m free-falling over the edge, my screams ringing through the night as Shinsu slams into me until he finds his own release with a roar of triumph, filling me, marking me, claiming me.

Completely spent, I collapse onto Shinsu’s chest as we ride out the aftershocks of our pleasure.

“I love you, Shinsu Beck.”

“I love you, Nori Landry.”

Maybe part of me should care about the sticky release against our stomachs, or have questions about the cock still filling my pussy that hasn’t gone soft yet, but I don’t have space for one worry in my head. Right now, I’m basking in the happiness of being in Shinsu’s arms, of being his, of being truly loved, and knowing this is the start of my happily ever after.
