Chapter 30
Smoke & thorns
The room was bathed in the soft glow of the bedside lamp, casting warm shadows across the walls. Messiah was lying on his back, his dreads tied up in a loose bun, his chest rising and falling with shallow breaths. Javier was beside him, his dark eyes filled with a mix of desire and tenderness as he looked down at Messiah. The air between them was thick with anticipation, but also with a deep sense of trust. Javier had been patient, always careful to make sure Messiah felt safe and comfortable. Tonight, they were taking the next step.
"You sure you're ready, chiquito?" Javier asked, his voice low and steady, his hand resting gently on Messiah's thigh. His touch was warm, grounding, and Messiah could feel the weight of Javier's care in every word.
Messiah nodded, his throat dry but his voice firm. "Yeah, I'm ready."
Javier smiled, his thumb brushing over Messiah's skin in a soothing motion. "Alright, baby. We'll take it slow. You tell me if anything feels off, okay? No matter what."
"I will," Messiah whispered, his heart pounding in his chest. He trusted Javier more than anyone, but this was still new territory for him. He'd never been with a man before, never let anyone get this close. But with Javier, it felt right.
Javier leaned down, pressing a soft kiss to Messiah's lips, his hand moving up to cup Messiah's cheek. The kiss was slow, deep, and full of promise. Messiah melted into it, his hands finding their way to Javier's shoulders, pulling him closer. Javier's lips trailed down to Messiah's neck, his teeth grazing the sensitive skin there, making Messiah shiver.
"You're so fucking beautiful," Javier murmured against his skin, his hands moving down to Messiah's waist. He tugged gently at the waistband of Messiah's sweatpants, his eyes locking with Messiah's as if asking for permission.
Messiah nodded, his breath hitching as Javier slowly pulled his sweatpants and boxers down, leaving him completely exposed. Javier's eyes darkened with desire as he took in the sight of Messiah's body, his hands moving to caress Messiah's thighs.
"Relax, baby," Javier whispered, his voice soothing. "I'm gonna take care of you."
Messiah nodded, his body trembling slightly as Javier's hands moved higher, his fingers brushing against the sensitive skin of Messiah's inner thighs. Javier's lips found his again, his kiss deep and lingering, his hands moving to gently spread Messiah's legs.
"You trust me, right?" Javier asked, his voice low and steady.
"Yeah," Messiah breathed, his voice trembling but sure. "I trust you."
Javier smiled, his lips trailing down Messiah's chest, leaving a trail of soft kisses in their wake. His hands moved to Messiah's hips, his fingers brushing against the sensitive skin there as he slowly lowered himself between Messiah's legs.
Messiah's breath hitched as Javier's lips brushed against the base of his cock, his tongue flicking out to taste him. Javier's hands moved to Messiah's thighs, his grip firm but gentle as he took Messiah into his mouth.
"Fuck..." Messiah groaned, his head falling back against the pillows as Javier's mouth worked him over. Javier's tongue was warm and wet, his movements slow and deliberate, like he was savoring every moment. Messiah's hands gripped the sheets, his hips bucking slightly as Javier took him deeper.
Javier's hands moved to Messiah's hips, holding him still as he continued to suck him off, his tongue swirling around the head of Messiah's cock. Messiah's breath came in short, ragged gasps, his body trembling with pleasure as Javier brought him closer and closer to the edge.
"Javi... I'm gonna..." Messiah's voice broke off as his body tensed, his release crashing over him in waves. Javier's mouth never left him, drawing out every last bit of pleasure until Messiah was left trembling and spent.
Javier pulled back, his lips curving into a soft smile as he looked up at Messiah. "You good, baby?" he asked, his voice gentle.
Messiah nodded, his chest rising and falling with shallow breaths. "Yeah... I'm good."
Javier pressed a soft kiss to Messiah's thigh, his hands moving to gently spread his legs further. "Alright, chiquito. I'm gonna get you ready for me, okay?"
Messiah nodded, his heart pounding in his chest as Javier reached for the bottle of lube on the nightstand. He watched as Javier poured a generous amount onto his fingers, his eyes dark with desire as he looked down at Messiah.
"Relax, baby," Javier whispered, his voice soothing. "Just breathe for me."
Messiah took a deep breath, his body slowly relaxing as Javier's fingers brushed against his entrance. The touch was light, almost teasing, and Messiah's breath hitched as Javier's finger slowly pressed inside.
"You're doing so good, chiquito," Javier murmured, his voice thick with desire. "Just relax for me."
Messiah nodded, his body trembling as Javier's finger moved deeper, his touch careful and deliberate. Javier's other hand moved to Messiah's hip, his grip firm but gentle as he slowly worked Messiah open.
"Fuck..." Messiah groaned, his hands gripping the sheets as Javier added a second finger, his movements slow and steady. Javier's fingers curled inside him, brushing against a spot that made Messiah's entire body jolt with pleasure.
"There it is," Javier murmured, his lips curving into a smile as he watched Messiah's reaction. "You feel that, baby?"
"Yeah..." Messiah breathed, his voice trembling. "Fuck, Javi..."
Javier's fingers continued to move inside him, his touch careful but firm, stretching him open and preparing him for what was to come. Messiah's body was on fire, every nerve ending alight with pleasure as Javier worked him over.
"You're doing so good, chiquito," Javier whispered, his voice rough with desire. "So fucking good."
Messiah's hips bucked slightly, his body trembling as Javier added a third finger, his movements slow and deliberate. Javier's lips found his again, his kiss deep and lingering, his fingers moving in a steady rhythm inside Messiah.
"Javi... I'm ready..." Messiah breathed, his voice trembling but sure.
Javier nodded, his fingers slowly pulling out of Messiah as he reached for the condom on the nightstand. He rolled it on quickly, his eyes never leaving Messiah's as he positioned himself between Messiah's legs.
"You sure, baby?" Javier asked, his voice low and steady.
"Yeah," Messiah whispered, his heart pounding in his chest. "I'm sure."
Javier nodded, his hands moving to Messiah's hips as he slowly pressed inside. Messiah
Javier's hands gripped Messiah's hips firmly, his eyes locked on Messiah's as he slowly pressed forward. Messiah's breath hitched, his body tensing for a moment as Javier's thick length stretched him open. Javier paused, his voice soft but steady.
"Relax, baby," Javier murmured, his thumb brushing over Messiah's hipbone. "Just breathe for me. You're doing so good, chiquito. So fucking good."
Messiah nodded, his chest rising and falling as he tried to steady his breathing. Javier's voice was grounding, his touch reassuring, and Messiah slowly relaxed, his body opening up to Javier's slow, deliberate movements.
"That's it, baby," Javier whispered, his voice thick with desire. "You're taking me so well. So fucking perfect."
Javier pushed forward again, his cock sliding deeper into Messiah, inch by inch. Messiah's hands gripped the sheets, his nails digging into the fabric as he felt Javier fill him completely. The stretch was intense, but Javier's hands on his hips kept him grounded, his voice soothing as he whispered praise into Messiah's ear.
"You feel so good, chiquito," Javier groaned, his hips flush against Messiah's ass. "So fucking tight. You're taking my dick so well, baby. So good for me."
Messiah's breath came in short, ragged gasps, his body trembling as Javier began to move. Javier's thrusts were slow at first, careful and deliberate, giving Messiah time to adjust. But as Messiah's body relaxed, Javier's movements became more confident, his hips rolling in a steady rhythm.
"Fuck, Javi..." Messiah groaned, his head falling back against the pillows. "You feel so good..."
Javier's hands moved to Messiah's thighs, spreading them wider as he leaned down to press a kiss to Messiah's chest. "You're so fucking beautiful, chiquito," Javier murmured, his lips trailing up to Messiah's neck. "You're taking my dick so well, baby. So good for me."
Messiah's hands moved to Javier's shoulders, his fingers digging into the muscle there as Javier's thrusts grew deeper, more insistent. Javier's lips found his again, his kiss deep and hungry, his tongue sliding against Messiah's as he fucked him with slow, deliberate strokes.
"You like that, baby?" Javier asked, his voice rough with desire. "You like how I'm fucking you?"
"Yeah..." Messiah breathed, his voice trembling. "Fuck, Javi... don't stop..."
Javier's lips curved into a smile against Messiah's, his hands moving to grip Messiah's hips again as he pulled out almost completely before slamming back in. Messiah's back arched, a moan tearing from his throat as Javier hit that spot inside him that made his vision blur.
"There it is," Javier growled, his voice low and possessive. "You feel that, baby? That's my dick hitting your sweet spot. You're taking it so well, chiquito. So fucking good for me."
Messiah's hands moved to Javier's back, his nails digging into the skin there as Javier's thrusts grew faster, harder. Javier's hands moved to Messiah's ass, gripping him tightly as he fucked him with deep, punishing strokes.
"Fuck, you're so tight," Javier groaned, his voice rough with desire. "You're squeezing my dick so good, baby. You like that? You like how I'm fucking you?"
"Yeah..." Messiah gasped, his body trembling with pleasure. "Fuck, Javi... I'm close..."
Javier's lips found Messiah's ear, his breath hot against his skin as he whispered, "Come for me, baby. Let me feel you come on my dick."
Messiah's body tensed, his release crashing over him in waves as Javier's thrusts grew more erratic, more desperate. Javier's hands moved to Messiah's hips, holding him still as he fucked him through his orgasm, his own release following soon after.
Javier's body shuddered as he came, his hips stuttering as he spilled into the condom. He collapsed on top of Messiah, his breath coming in short, ragged gasps as he pressed soft kisses to Messiah's neck.
"You did so good, chiquito," Javier murmured, his voice soft and full of affection. "So fucking good."
Messiah's hands moved to Javier's back, his fingers tracing lazy patterns on the skin there as he caught his breath. Javier's weight on top of him was comforting, grounding, and Messiah felt a sense of peace wash over him.
Javier slowly pulled out, his hands moving to Messiah's hips as he carefully rolled off of him. He disposed of the condom quickly before returning to the bed, pulling Messiah into his arms.
"You good, baby?" Javier asked, his voice gentle as he pressed a kiss to Messiah's forehead.
"Yeah," Messiah whispered, his voice drowsy. "I'm good."
Javier smiled, his fingers brushing against Messiah's skin in a soothing motion. "You're so fucking perfect, chiquito. I'm so lucky to have you."
Messiah didn't respond, too overwhelmed by the intensity of his emotions to form words. Instead, he just curled up in Javier's arms, letting himself get lost in the moment.

Later, they were lying in bed, Messiah's head resting on Javier's chest as they talked softly. The room was quiet, the only sound the faint hum of the air conditioner and the occasional purr from Shadow, who had curled up at the foot of the bed.
"You know," Javier said, his fingers tracing lazy patterns on Messiah's back, "I've been thinking about something."
"What's that?" Messiah asked, his voice drowsy.
"I wanna take you out," Javier said, his tone casual but with a hint of excitement. "Like, on a real date. Not just hanging out at your place or mine. I wanna take you somewhere nice, show you off."
Messiah smiled, his heart swelling with affection. "Yeah," he whispered. "I'd like that."
Javier pressed a soft kiss to Messiah's forehead, his arms tightening around him. "Good. 'Cause you deserve it, chiquito. You deserve the world."
Messiah's eyes fluttered closed, a sense of peace washing over him as he drifted off to sleep in Javier's arms. For the first time in a long time, he felt truly happy. And he knew, with Javier by his side, that happiness would only grow.
