1.24 Echoes of Passion

For what felt like an eternity, Dorian and Damian kissed fervently, as if fearing they might never embrace again. Damian withdrew slightly, gazing into Dorian's eyes.

The desire reflected in Dorian's gaze brought a smile to Damian's lips. He longed for Dorian to crave him as intensely as he did.

With gentle urgency, Damian peeled off Dorian's shirt, followed by his pants. Naked, Damian stood before him, his dark eyes tracing over Dorian's body.

In turn, Dorian undressed Damian, his fingers tracing the contours of Damian's defined abs with a reverent touch.

Initially, Dorian had found Damian attractive, though he had once believed Aeron to be even more so. But now, as he drank in Damian's form, he couldn't fathom how he had ever compared the two.

Damian's smile widened as he gently guided Dorian onto the bed, their lips meeting once more in a passionate kiss.
