Asher very obviously wanted to take things slow, but the fire licking up Caspian's skin made it difficult for him to comply.
He pulled the Alpha's tongue into his mouth and sucked on it, humming in satisfaction when Asher groaned into the kiss.
He did get the memo and broke the kiss apart, his pupils dilated as they shared each other's warm and fragrant breaths.
"Let's have our firsts together." Asher murmured, his voice steady despite his racing heart.
He was so tempted to ask to mark Caspian right then when he was somewhat lucid and not drunk on pleasure, when he thought he had a fair chance of not losing control.
But he didn't give in to that. Caspian wanted them to exchange marks, and he would do that instead even if it killed him.
Caspian had no dissents, going easily when Asher changed their positions.
