chapter 2

“Why do you…why do you let those men do those things to you?”

You bark out a surprised laugh. “Do angels not know about fucking?”

He wrinkles his nose at your language and it makes you smile.

“Of course. There’s nothing sinful about making love,” he says dismissively. “I mean….treat you that way. Say those things to you.”

“What things?”

“One quote I remember is: you d*ck drunk *****,’” he says, nose wrinkling again, and you choke out another laugh.

You shrug. “It’s just a….a kink, Taehyung. Like some people have a thing for being called names like that, it turns them on.”

He seems to consider this for a moment, tilting his head.

“I do not believe it would be my… kink,” he says primly, and you can’t believe you’re laughing again, after the year you’ve had.

“What would be your kink?” You tease.

“Is there a kink for the opposite of that? Telling you how beautiful you are, how your skin glows when you’re in the throes of passion, how your mouth parts in the most exquisite way when you come?”

Your mouth goes instantly dry and your breath catches in your throat. Has he….does he…. watch you?

“Praise,” you choke out. “That would be a praise kink.”

He nods slowly, smiling a bit, and it makes him look almost human, like some handsome boy you’d brought home, if it weren’t for the wings folded on his back.

“Taehyung?”

He hums low in his chest, and it sends a little shiver up your spine.

“Do you…do you watch me?”

“Always,” he says easily.

“I mean…when I’m…with men.”

He frowns a little. “I…I try not to.”

“You don’t like watching me?”

He shakes his head slowly. He did everything slowly, you noticed, everything thought out, careful.

“I like watching you when you’re alone. But with men…. especially your ex…” He wrinkles his nose in disgust again and you smile.

“I guess it’s kind of weird, watching someone have s*x.”

“It’s not that. I don’t like the way they treat you. It isn’t right, the way they touch you.”

You lean forward a bit, interested. “What do you mean?”

He’s quiet for a moment, still frowning, looking down at his hands.

“You….you could show me.”

You don’t know why you said it. You don’t know why you lean toward him.

He makes that hum in the back of his throat again, tilting his head again.

He moves slowly but it’s still surprising, how gently he pushes you down on the bed, towering over you, and you swallow, hard.

“They should’ve touched you like you’re something holy,” he murmurs.

He leans down to kiss the base of your throat, open mouthed, and for just a moment, your skin there is so hot it almost stings, but then it’s cool, almost cold.

He keeps trailing his hand up and down your side and your body is buzzing with pleasure and need when you huff out a breath.

“Tae, come on. I’m not fragile.”

His eyes were following the line of your body but now his gaze darts up to your face.

“Not fragile, but precious. You deserve more than they gave you. You deserve to have every inch of your skin worshipped.”

You whimper quietly, rocking up against his hand, and then he leans down to kiss you, softly at first, then deeper, sliding his tongue into your mouth.

You reach up to spread your hands across his chest and he gasps when you run your palm across one of his ni*ples, eyes darting to your face.

You can’t help but smile a little, it’s cute, his reaction.

“There are other ways you can make me feel better, you know,” You gasp out as his fingers never stop inside you. 

“What can I do, little dove?”

“I need….I need someone who knows me. Someone who…who cares about me. Don’t you care about me, Tae?”

His face looks almost pained, the most expression you’d seen him have all night.

“Of course I do.”

“If you love me, then love me, Taehyung,” you murmur.

He doesn’t move, stilling completely, and when you whine he drops down on his forearms, stroking your face.

“Dove,” he murmurs. “Y/n. You deserve to be loved.”

Tears roll down your face and he kisses them away, his lips so hot on your skin that it gives you a chill when he pulls away, and he kisses your mouth then, soft.
