He leans into that last kiss, using it as a grounding force for himself before they get out of the tub together. If his heart could beat, he's certain it would be racing right now. They're walking to the edge of something wonderful and yet incredibly dangerous together for the first time in years, and the weight of that is enough to make his chest feel tight. No matter what happens now, incredible high or painful low, they're in this together and they'll come out the other side ready to take on whatever comes next.
Once they're both toweled off and have moved out of the en suite into the bedroom proper, Toby pauses them at the edge of the bed to draw Dorian into his arms for another string of messy, necessary kisses. As much as the kisses build the two of them up for the pleasure that's to come, they also help settle the vampire's nerves while they fall into bed together. He's made the decision to move forward with this, but anything to keep his mind in the moment is helpful right now. Warm hands on his body and warm flesh for him to kiss and touch will always help, and this time is no exception. It hardly feels like any time has passed before they're both slick with sweat in bed, any benefits from their bath removed by bodies eager to connect in a way that's far deeper than any sex could ever hope to achieve. The desire makes it difficult for the vampire to part himself from his soulmate, but he manages by pressing the other man's body into the decadent sheets on the bed and fitting their bodies together enough to give them a little something to sate their need for more.
"You ready for this?" It's an unnecessary question between them, but he still needs to ask. This needs to be a choice Dorian makes before they move forward. He touches the other man's face gently, his fingers then trailing down his neck to come to rest along his collarbone. The man's pulse, eager and excited as ever, is waiting to be tapped, and Toby won't hesitate to take what's offered the second consent is given.
