(Lyon's POV)
"You two have me waiting now?" Serena asked as Eros and I walked out of the clothing store, "What took you so long?"
"I had to pee." I said while shrugging
"S-Sorry...." Eros said as he was behind me
Serena frowned as she looked at him, "What's up with your face?" She asked, "You're sweating."
I looked at Eros, who was holding some of the bags I had; his face was flustered as his posture was slightly hunched and trembling slightly.
"N-Nothing..." Eros said
"Let's go eat." I said as I walked past Serena, "I'm hungry."
"Wait...." Serena said as she and Eros walked along, "Did you two.....? in the.....? Oh, you perverted fucks!"
"N-No!" Eros exclaimed, "It's not what you think!"
I glanced over, and he was completely red. He was looking at Serena who gave him a teasing smile.
"Oh, my little baby~ Did daddy give it to you good?" She hugged him, "Hm?"
"Stop it..." Eros said, completely embarrassed
"Don't do this in public." I said,
"Let's go eat."
***********
"You haven't touched your food, Eros." I said as I was leaning back and drinking from my straw, "Eat up."
Eros was sitting down across from me, "I...." He said softly, "Well, I'm not hungry....not that much...."
Serena was eating some fries, "Oh, Eros. You have to eat."
"It's...my medication...." Eros said, "It kills my hunger sometimes."
I frowned, "You're kidding." I said, "You're taking meds again?"
"I'm sorry, Lyon...." He said, "I just.....I feel terrible lately at times....I...."
"No, no, honey." Serena said, "Don't apologize. Your health is important, right Lyon?"
She nudged my elbow, giving me a serious scowl.
"It is." I said, "But those pills kill your hunger as an aftereffect. The doctor told you that you should eat a bit, or take the pills after you had meals."
"Well...." He looked down, "I..I just....."
"You need your energy, baby." Serena said, "Eat."
She grabbed one of his fries and handed it to his mouth, which he opened it slightly. The fry gently pushed past his soft lips and he took it in his mouth.
"Fufu~" Serena pulled away, "Good boy~"
I frowned, "What did I say about doing this in public?"
"Oh, you're such a killjoy sometimes." She said with a frown, "And what about you? You're too fucking relaxed. You always eat in that relaxed position after you've fucked and I haven't given you any today. So that means...."
"It means nothing." I said, "Don't start."
"Oh honey, you know it makes me feel all kinds of things when you take care of our Eros." Serena leaned closer to me, kissing my cheek, "I love it so much, Lyon, you know that....."
"Hm...." I said, "You're going to see your family?"
"Oh yea." She said, "That's why I didn't want to have our rough morning sex, I had to be properly behaved when I go see my Dad. But its sucks that he's stuck in his company building all week, having no rest. I have to see him there instead of the manor...."
"Hm." I said, "Give him my regards then."
"Oh, you should come with." Serena said, "I drop Eros off and we head over there."
"No." I said, "You know he overreacts when I am there."
"Ah, that's true." She said, "But at least he's not like your old man. Oooh boy, my future father-in-law is the most intense guy....."
"I would like to meet the Head of the Blackclaw Family one day." Eros spoke up, "I've heard stories in my childhood, about how the Legendary Black Dragon killed the Frozen Lich in the wastelands of the Arctic.
"You don't." I said as I set my cup down, "You really don't."
"Why not?" He frowned, "Lyon, I know that your family is intense and that you have respon-"
"I already told you." I said as I leaned forwards, "You don't want to deal with that kind of thing, Eros. Do you have any idea of the drama that it'll cause? It is something I don't want to deal with. The Blackclaws, The Lockfields, The Rimeguards, and The Cloverdives. The Four Heavenly Families that protect the Human Society of High Town, you know how they are with the Supernatural Council."
"I know..." Eros said, "The Families and The Council have an alliance which can easily be shattered...I know, Lyon."
"Don't mind him." Serena said, "He's stressed out because it's going to be his birthday soon. And The Blackclaws were always known for their birthday parties for the Heirs."
"Tch..." I said as I looked to the side, "Don't start."
"Oh, but our Eros knows how it is." Serena said with a chuckle, "I told him about it. Every year, the Prince of The Blackclaws has to return home and a huge banquet is thrown for him. They celebrate his birthday and right after, they host a fight club, testing his might."
"Sparring session." I said
"Ha, good one." Serena said, "Only you Blackclaws call it a sparring session. It's a brutal fight club. The Black Army take part in it. Members of the Blackclaw Family, whether the main branch of the cadet branches, they also fight to challenge the Heir."
"They ensure whether he is formidable enough to lead the family." Eros said, "I remember being told this one day....when I as a young boy....."
"Sounds like your family were fans of Lyon's." Serena smiled
"You can say that." Eros blushed, looking down and smiling
"Okay, darling~" Serena, "Let's eat up and take off, I am going to be late."
"You can take off if you want." I said, "I can drop Eros off myself."
*************
I opened the door to Eros's place, "Here we are." I said, "Serena is probably going to spend all day with her family. Her old man is going to have her run errands with her sisters and then they'll have dinner at their manor."
I stepped to the side and watched as he entered, holding the bags of the clothes we bought for him.
"Thanks for getting me new clothes." He said as I followed him, closing the door behind me, "I haven't received this month's allowance from my Mother....it's been tough on her...."
I looked at him, seeing how he set he bags down on the table, "Hm." I said, "How much does she give you per month?"
"Well, to cover for rent and some food and-" He started
"I already told you." I said, "I'll cover all of that."
"N-No, I don't want to bother you." He said with a smile, "Thank you, Lyon. I...."
I walked up to him and grabbed him by the waist, lifting him up and sitting him on the table.
"You little stubborn prick." I said seriously, leaning in and smelling his hair, "Who do you think you are? Telling me what I shouldn't do..."
"I didn't....say anything like that....." He said, his breathing becoming heavier
"Tell your Mother not to worry about a thing." I said as I wrapped my arm around him, feeling his waist through his sweater, "I will cover your rent, utilities, food, and any kind of expenses from now on."
"Lyon...." He started
"You've been part of our little thing for how long now?" I said as I looked at him, "Hm?"
"A year....almost...." He said softly
"You deserve something good." I said, "So let me do this for you."
"O-Okay...." He said, "But...."
"But what?" I asked
"You always send some mixed signals...." He said with a frown, "I didn't think that...."
"Not in public." I said as I leaned closer, "For your safety...I mean it....behind closed doors....."
"We can do whatever we desire."
