I let out an enormous yawn and stretched my arms high into the air. Azrael briefly looked up from his book, frowning at my sudden movement, but then returned to his reading. I paid no attention to him as I rubbed my face in frustration with my elbows leaning on the desk.
"I can't do it anymore. I'll deal with it tomorrow!" I sighed, got up from my chair, and walked to the fridge. Azrael looked so comfy, nestled into a corner of the couch, sitting with his legs crossed as his shoulder-length white hair draped around his face.
"You always say that," Azrael purred with a hint of teasing.
"And tomorrow me always does a great job, so why mess with the system?!" I said as I plopped down on the couch next to him.
"Do you want this beer or not?" I offered him a cold beer from the fridge. After deciding to continue my studies and get a PhD, these tired, frustrating, long nights have become a habit.
"I suppose it would be too sad to let you drink alone," he said with a smirk, opening his can with a loud pop.
"To guardian angels, the best drinking buddies," I said out loud, clinking our foaming cans, making Azrael roll his eyes and chuckle.
Seeing Azrael so used to my antics always made me smile. He was a constant presence in my life, usually annoying and often irritating, but I don’t think I could easily handle his absence, for whatever reasons. When we met a year ago, I was a wreck; I was a literal living corpse, devastated by my parents' deaths, both gone in an instant in a car accident.
"Remember when I found you in the dumpster?" I looked up at him, lost in his steel-gray, upturned eyes.
“You mean the day I got cast out from the heavens and you thought I was a suicidal crackhead?” He turned towards me.
His response made me chuckle. When I think about that day, I first recall the panic in my gut as I heard a loud crash in the dumpster next to me. I remember throwing away my cigarette hastily and jumping into the garbage, crying out for a response. As I moved aside some stinky bags, I saw Azrael lying motionless. His angelic features, with his powerful jaw, pale face, long, slim, toned body, and those beautiful, dark lashes, took my breath away. After I rather violently shook his shoulders, he opened his eyes slowly and whispered, "Human," while stretching his hand out to touch my face.
“You couldn’t have expected me to believe your story on the spot, right?” I gave his shoulder a playful nudge. “A castaway angel, cursed to spend a mortal’s life, bound to the first mortal he sees...”
“Not any angel, a warrior angel,” he interrupted me, scowling. “And not cursed... punished. Punished for confronting my superiors.”
"Because you wanted to intervene and stop humans from fighting?" I asked timidly, knowing this subject was rather delicate for him.
"Yes, Mena. As much as you like to turn this into a debate every time, humans are diabolical in their cruel nature. They do not respect the land, the animals, or their brethren. They hurt each other with no remorse by cheating, stealing, hurting... killing. You know it better than me in that regard," he said in a heated voice, looking down at me with flared nostrils and narrow eyes, breathing fast.
I looked down and sighed. "Yeah, it’s true, but it always balances out with the good in humans. The kindness, generosity, affection..."
Azrael wrapped one arm around my shoulders and gripped me tightly.
“Although I remain firm in my opinion, I do acknowledge that there may be exceptions,” he said, a smile gracing his face as he gently kissed the top of my head.
“I understand that you might feel compelled to stay by my side due to the pain we experience, but I want you to know that I genuinely treasure your presence in my life, Az.”
Ever since Azrael’s crash landing on Earth, I had done my best to assist him in acclimating and understanding the workings of the city. Witnessing some of his extraordinary abilities convinced me of the truth behind his story, yet I couldn’t fully embrace the notion of him being “bound to the first mortal he sees.” Consequently, he resolved to embark on a journey, traversing different places to unravel the mysteries of his punishment and find a path to redemption.
As time went on, we both realized that it was physically painful for us to be apart. The pain worsens the farther he is or the longer he stays away. It's manageable for a few days to a week or two, starting with mild headaches, dizziness, sense of loss, but after that, it becomes soul-crushing, like experiencing grief and a heavy pressure on my throat and lungs. We haven’t tried seeing what happens after that since.
He pulls me in tighter. “You’re getting way too mushy on me tonight,” he replies, making me chuckle. He softly rubs my shoulders and I wince, squinting my eyes.
“Sorry, I’m very sore there,” I explain my reaction. “I think I slept funny, or maybe it’s how I sat at my desk.”
“Oh, I’m sure it’s just a little kink in your muscles,” he turns my back towards him and pulls me in closer. “Here, let me help,” and he firmly starts pressing into my skin, following the way my muscles lie.
Azrael wasn’t a big fan of physical touch, so tonight was a little unusual for us to be so straightforward and close to each other. Maybe it was the beer, the late hour, the recent stress at college, and his workplace, but his touch right now felt divine. I bit my lip hard to stop from moaning, as I didn’t want to make it awkward. I’m sure it was just a friendly gesture.
“How does this feel?” he asked, whispering in my ear, his deep guttural voice making my pussy twitch.
“It feels good, Az,” I let out involuntarily a small moan, and I clasped my mouth, embarrassed.
“I can make it even better,” he smirked and started going lower, caressing the sides and top part of my breasts. His touch got me aroused, and I was unsure where this was heading, as it was highly inappropriate and I didn’t want to give Azrael the wrong impression.
“Az, I don’t think this is...” I grunted.
“Shh...” he whispered in my ear, kissing my neck. “Don’t think about it. Just stop me if it doesn’t feel good.”
His lips grazing my skin made me shudder, giving me instant goosebumps.
“You’re so responsive,” he chuckled, making me blush heavily. His hands roamed farther away and cupped my breasts, squeezing hard.
I moaned loudly, surprised and heavily aroused.
“Az..”
“Mena, I want you. I desire you. I crave your body, to caress, kiss... fuck,” he spoke in a low tone with a raspy voice, as he kissed the column of my neck, gently nipping at my skin. “Please tell me you want it too.” He continued grazing my skin with his lips, reaching my earlobe and biting it.
I couldn’t take it anymore and I turned around, pressing my lips against his, leaning my whole body on him.
"Yes, Az, I want you too. I’ve always wanted you. I just never thought you felt the same.”
Azrael hugged me tightly and kissed me back, invading my mouth with his tongue, exploring everything as he plunged it deep and desperately caressed my face. His brutal, passionate kiss made me incredibly wet, my body taking over and grinding against him.
“I want to push my cock into you so badly, Mena. Order me to fuck you, please,” Azrael whispered.
“Please fuck me, Az,” I mumbled, bashful.
Azrael grunted ecstatically and grabbed his cock firmly, pushing it towards my entrance, and I climbed higher into his lap. I gasped loudly as I felt it spread my pussy wide, like nothing I’ve ever had before. When he slammed it hard at the end, it took my breath away.
“My sweet Mena, I’m fully inside you. You’re so fucking tight I’ll cum in an instant.” Azrael panted as he exercised as much restraint as he could.
The sensations were overwhelming for me, making it hard to speak. I moaned with each thrust, as I felt him deeper and deeper, my legs spreading wider to let him in more and Azrael pumping harder.
“Az, it’s so good, it feels so...” I moaned with my eyes closed, grinding against him.
Azrael grabbed my face with both hands.
“Look at me!” He shouted as I opened my eyes, surprised. “I want you to see me fucking you. See me plunging my cock in your tight cunt.”
Azrael grasped firmly my ass cheeks, spreading them apart, allowing him to penetrate me deeper.
"Mena, I’m sorry, I can’t...” Azrael’s body quivered, and he swiftly withdrew, releasing his load onto my stomach.
The sight of Azrael holding his substantial cock, as streams of warm cum erupted, accompanied by his grunts and contorted movements, ignited a scorching heat within me. I clung to him, feeling the lingering pulses of his orgasm, and tenderly caressed his back as he fought to regain his breath.
