He lay with his back against Aldrenâs broad chest, his hands covering Aldrenâs as they laid on his chest, Aldrenâs arms wrapped tight around him. An overwhelming sense of peace, being loved and protected surfaced in his soul and he let Aldren take his full weight, giving in, trusting his man to simply hold him and look after him.
He hadnât realized heâd been dozing until a sponge was slowly traced over his body. âHey.â His voice was soft, not wanting to break the peace surrounding them.
âWelcome back, have a nice nap?â Aldren teased.
âSorry, I was exhausted. Still am a little.â
âI loved having you here in my arms, no one with us, no dragons, no friends, no work, just us. No Rider and Prince, just Eli and Aldren. Thatâs what I want you know, when weâre at home, together, like this, itâs just you and me. I donât want to ever think of you as my prince, and I donât want you to think of me as a Rider. I know weâre those things, but here when itâs just us, I want it to be just us.â
Eli smiled, even if Aldren couldnât see it as he lay behind him. âThatâs exactly what I want.â He sobered up. âI have a confession.â
âIâm not going to like this, am I?â Aldren squeezed him tighter.
âI donât know.â Eli bit his bottom lip. Rather than postpone the moment, he recited everything Tagondir had told him, not about being the Seeker, but about Aldren being his bond mate.
âHow could he possibly know?â Aldren looked dumbfounded.
âI have no idea.â
âWhy didnât you say something sooner?â Aldren tipped Eliâs head back and to the side so he was looking into his eyes.
âYou know why.â Eli held his gaze for a moment before looking away.
âNo, I really donât. Youâre going to need to explain it to me.â Aldren pushed.
âBecause I had no idea how you felt. I wanted to know you wanted me, Eli, not the part of me thatâs the prince, the part of me thatâs this Seeker.â
Aldren hauled him up and over so they were lying chest to chest. Eli groaned when their cocks rubbed together. When Aldren wrapped his legs around Eliâs, pinning him in place, he whimpered at the feel of Aldren hardening underneath him. A gentle tap to his ass startled him.
âPlaying comes later.â Aldren used one hand to guide Eliâs face so they were looking each other in the eyes. âLook at me, E, look into my eyes while I say this.â
Aldren must have been waiting for a response, because it wasnât until he nodded that Aldren spoke again. âI really donât care that you are a prince. If anything, I would rather you werenât. I keep hoping that everyone will somehow magically forget that part of who you are. I donât want to keep being summoned to the palace for dinners, to greet the latest delegation from who knows where. I donât want to have to dress in courtly robes. I donât want to sit and endure formal dinners at the whim of the regal advisors.
