He loved him.
Although Damien had initially planned to teach Ithnan a few things, the dynamic had somehow shifted. Now, after what had just transpired, they were starting over. Both of them were completely naked, sitting side by side on the bed.
Usually, moments like this would involve sitting across from each other for better communication, but Ithnan seemed to prefer this arrangement. Resting against Damien's shoulder, he seemed utterly content.
Despite the awkwardness of the position for instruction, Damien didn't have the heart to disrupt Ithnan's comfort.
"Ah! That hurts!" Damien exclaimed suddenly.
Ithnan had reached out for Damien's still-hard penis, prompting Damien to swat his hand away.
Only now did Damien realize something he hadn't noticed before. While Ithnan was typically composed and well-mannered, when it came to moments like these, his self-control left much to be desired.
