Sylas widened his eyes when Kai stood up and insisted on taking off his clothes. His courage surprised him. For a moment he froze, his heart pounding as he realized Kai was really trying to be more aggressive.
"Kai... wait..." he whispered almost inaudibly. His hand reached out, trying to stop Kai gently. "Not like this, Kai." His voice hardened, and then he wrapped his wrist around Kai's to prevent him from removing his clothes.
Sylas swallowed hard when he saw the uncontrollable desire in his partner's eyes. Kai's body was tense, as if ready to accept anything from him. He realized that this was probably what Kai wanted from him, aggressive sex without limits. His tongue unconsciously moistened his lower lip, his voice dropping lower.
A long sigh escaped his lips, his eyes reflecting a mixture of tenderness and frustration. Sylas released his grip on Kai's wrist and then ran his fingers through his hair in frustration.
