He barely hears what Essek says, but he knows the intent of it, the tone, and it's all he needs. Panting, Percy fucks him and his mind goes blank save for the need to do exactly as Essek instructs.

There's a crescendo of movement before he feels it. His knot pushes in and can't pull back out again. Percival's orgasm hits him hard and a ragged moan escapes him as he drags Essek close, trying to keep his husband right where he is as he comes. He slumps over the slender body beneath him, bracing himself to keep from landing on the other man. He shivers, feeling good and relief for the first time all night. That moment in the corridor had been a tease more than anything.

He closes his eyes and rests his cheek against Essek's.
