Chapter 58: Don’t Overthink it **Caius’ eyes were wide in shock at the whirlwind of events. One moment, Lea Gilligan was making a statement that really could only be taken one way and the next, the cage of limp Fire-Cracking Lizards in his hands was tossed aside and hit the ground with a thud before the Professor’s tongue was shoved so deep into his mouth, he was sure it was reaching his throat. Even as he let out a gasp of surprise at the urgency of the kiss, he felt Lea press her body against him. Her large breasts were so tight between them, they spilled out of the sides as she pushed him until his back was against a tree trunk. ’Oh, that’s right. We’re in the Lochxen Forest.’ Caius thought as he felt the roughness of the tree try and fail to break through the material of his uniform shirt and jacket enough to cause him any major discomfort. Their location should have been the least on the list of things to be thinking about in that moment but sometimes, especially when in shock, the mind tends to wander. "Lea..." he said and the Professor pulled away from him. There was nothing about her expression that pointed to her regaining her sense of reasoning. They looked wild like she had done exactly what she had spent the walk over to the Forest talking about; she let her intelligence wane and allowed her instincts and desires to guide her. "Don’t overthink it," she said in a breathy voice that had goosebumps rising all over Caius’ body as his cock hardened even more than it already had inside his pants. "The question is, do you or do you not want this?" Caius laughed. "I think it’s fair to say I’d be insane not to want this..." "Oh, I can tell," Lea said and one of her hands reached down to grab his bulge and rub against it. Caius cleared his throat. "Yes. Indeed. But the optics..." "There you go letting societal rules cause you to worry about ’optics’. Here, with nature all around us, none of that matters," Lea said and she claimed Caius’ lips again. The truth was, Caius didn’t care about ’optics’ either. He wouldn’t have an ongoing relationship with Arlette and be planning to strike up another with Cynthia Kragsten if he cared about them him being a Student and them being Professors. But he did wonder... "Why me?" He asked when he managed to separate his lips from Lea’s. "What?" Lea asked, surprised. "I’m asking why me? Why do this with me?" Caius asked again. "Have you seen yourself?" Lea asked and laughed a little to herself, "I dare say I’ve never met another male that looks half as good as you do. And I’ve met a lot of them. Human and otherwise." "Thanks for the confidence boost, but really? My looks? That’s all?" Caius asked his eyes narrowed in suspicion, "My looks alone caused you to surrender any semblance of normalcy as I’m pretty sure you’ve never done before?" ’What am I doing?’ Caius asked in his head and if he could have, he would have kicked himself. It seemed so stupid not to shut his mouth and seize this opportunity. It wasn’t even that he disliked having the tables turned and being the one who was being ’chased’ instead of the other way around as it usually was. But for some reason, he just couldn’t help but ask. There had to be something else. And sure enough, Lea Gilligan adopted a smile. "I can feel it on you. It’s the nature of a Tamer. At least a Tamer like myself. We can feel predation when it’s close. I was already curious when Mom described your smug expressions as you got her all flustered but when I saw you in Class... when you asked that question, I could tell I was being hunted. You wanted me and you’d already started on your way to trying to get me." "What?" Caius asked taken completely by surprise. "I’ve felt such before. I’ve felt it with about the same level of intent to follow through. I’ve also felt it with about the same level of patience to play the long game. However, that was the first time I felt something else to it though. Something that made me realize... You’re not human. Not entirely anyway. There’s something more to it. To you. Vampire, Werewolf... Shapeshifter. Maybe something to do with your blood? An experiment to make you a Beast-kin as was done with my family many, many, many generations ago? I don’t know. My instincts are good but they’re never precise with the details." Lea went into a musing tone now but Caius barely heard the things she said after she mentioned the word ’Vampire’. He clenched his fist, feeling the moonstone ring on his finger. Had it not been for the enchantment ingrained into it, he was sure Lea would have zeroed in on exactly what it was and then, realized what he was. Even then though, he managed to keep a relaxed smile on his face as he said. "So you think I’m dangerous and you brought me here... To be alone with me?" "Dangerous? No, no," Lea said and her eyes widened for a second before she laughed, "No, I think you’re Wild. I think you get by looking ’normal’ because your looks just scream ’handsome noble rich boy’ even though your desires scream something else. Something depraved. Something that’s just ready to shed the bounds of society and get down and dirty." Lea took a step back now and slowly undid the buttons of her shirt, pulling them out of her pants so they could fall completely to the sides and reveal her large and barely bra-contained breasts. As she undid the buttons and then thrust her chest out in a visage of seduction no man could possibly resist, she smirked. "So here we are. Alone. Free to let out that wildness in you. Free to let it out... on me!" Now, how could Caius hold back after that? He was barely holding on as is. He reached out and grabbed Lea’s waist, pulling her closer to slam their lips together. The Professor’s arms went around his neck as her tongue stretched into his mouth just as it did before. Only now it had opposition in the form of Caius’ tongue, rising to battle for dominance. As they kissed, Lea raised one leg and wrapped it halfway around the tree trunk she had pressed Caius’ back into. Pinning him against the rough bark surface as she rocked their lower halves against each other. Caius didn’t complain, of course. If anything, he groaned and his grip on her waist tightened. Until he was reaching down with one hand to grab one of her asscheeks while his other hand worked in between their upper bodies to palm one of her bra-covered breasts. And then, he felt annoyed by the material keeping his fingers from getting the full fleshy goodness and reached his hand around Lea’s back, under her shirt to grab the fastening holding her bra close. He undid it and pulled the underwear off, tossing it aside as his fingers finally sank into the ample tit flesh that wrapped around him as if to welcome him. He felt the hardened nipple rubbing against his palm and began his machinations. Just light touches and pulls accurately timed with his attention on Lea’s body and her reactions. When he pulled his lips away from hers and grabbed one of her nipples into his mouth while his fingers pinched the other just right, Lea damn near squealed but managed to bite her lip to stifle the sound. Almost like he was insistent on hearing that sound, Caius’s other hand reached for the Professor’s pants. Her belts were not actually looped through and were not keeping it up so he could reach past them to unhook the buttons that kept it shut and create enough room to allow his hand to reach in. His fingers stroked down the front of her underwear and he felt the tiny nub that was his target and pressed hard against it. That contact was all that was required to get Lea Gilligan groaning and trembling so hard that her breasts vibrated against Caius’ face and hand—causing his dick to get even harder and push more insistently against the inside of his pants. A detail that was not lost on the Study of Magical Beasts Professor.
