Lucien slid his fingers into Ronan's hair affectionately.
"We are already having sex. Don't you want to wait until we are married?" he asked.
In response, Ronan unbuttoned Lucien's pajamas and pulled the lapel aside to reveal a sexy shoulder. He then kissed and sucked along Lucien's collarbone.
"It's not enough," Ronan said, his gaze burning with lust. "I want more, Lucien. I want us to be bound to each other properly."
Lucien sighed when Ronan's lips traveled along his jawline and he sucked at one of his earlobes playfully. The red-blonde man rubbed at Ronan's back and reveled in the other man's warmth.
He too wanted to give in to his primal instincts and seal the mating bond with Ronan. Then they would transcend from being fated mates to being actual mates. It was what they both wanted. They were adults. It was fine to do it even before they got married, right?
