he can read cassian like a book, ( always has, there was little need for rhys to ever take a glimpse into his mind ) taking in the fear he tries to play off with laughter. he sometimes forgets: after everything he put them through in his absence, the pain & worry that came during that time ... he needs to be more careful now. leaving his court in the dark is no longer an option. " apologies. i got wrapped up in a rather — heated conversation with one of the war camp leaders. " both hands raise to show no harm was done, at least to him, before moving to give a reassuring squeeze to cass' shoulder, grounding him. " i'm fine. "

" i should have known better. " they've both come back from far more perilous missions. but he gets in his head, even now, blood rushing in his ears & his massive body tense, itching for action. " you worried me. you weren't responding- "
he savors every second, every shudder under his touch egging him on further. movements are slow, taunting & teasing, skilled in the ways of torture. a game to see how long it takes before he can break him, that he intends on stretching out for as long as he can — until cassian is pleading for release.
there is sadistic pride in the effect he has on him: the male who he has seen bring armies down singlehandedly, submitting himself so freely to his high lord. now unable to even speak. he decides to challenge it, push him over the edge one last time. lithe fingers sliding over venous wing, his own twitching with desire. he finds the apex of nerves with ease, circling for a moment too long ...
" hm? " feigned innocence swallows the smirk threatening his lips at the insult, rhysand's gaze following him as shoulders simply shrug. " my fingers slipped. "
such casualness is washed away as he stalks closer, closing the space between them. his hand moves to slip under cassian's shirt, tracing shapes upon toned stomach. wicked cruelty laces each movement, each stroke lowering until he stops at the band of his pants. he leans in to nip at his ear, voice coated in honeyed mischief.
" what is it that you want then, cassian? "

this was torture. this was torture made worse by the fact that it was rhysand doing it. but because it was him, cassian didn't pull away. that, & because pulling away meant giving rhysand something to gloat about. that was always the dilemma, wasn't it? wanting to beat him at these stupid games but also wanting to submit to his high lord.
( one has happened more than the other. there is a sense of pride in that too. )
@rhysie 𝑠𝑎𝒊𝑑: ❛ do you like that? ❜ (he felt left out </3 4 cass)
yes. goddess, yes. muscles tense underneath skin, adrenaline pumping & blood rushing all through out. he wants to speak, to laugh this all off but the beast can only grunt in response. just a moment more. just a little while longer. teeth dig into tongue to keep from begging. the white noise in his ear rises in pitch as a finger moves up the length of a bone in his wing, then slowly follows the trail of a vein on the thin membrane-
whole fucking body shudders & wing pulls away as cassian lunges out of his seat, snarling. he has to tug at the string of his leather pants, the knots loosening from where his bulge threatened to spill.
" don't be an ass. "
