Lemons, so. many. Lemons. I went overboard here as an apology for those who have been looking forward to a bit of Kai and Ray action. As I said in the last chapter, there ARE important things in this, and I will divide them up from the lemons. (Seriously, why do we call it that?)
As a warning, there is a MAJOR time skip coming in this chapter. Always pay attention to the dates, they are slightly important.
Lost in Paradise belongs to Evanescence and it speaks for both lemon scenes/ Kain as a person and his problems.
Normal POV/ December 25th
Golden eyes fluttered open, taking in the surroundings offered to them. A smile came to Ray's lips as he saw his daughter laying beside him in his bed, sound asleep as she laid on her back, her little hands held tightly in closed fists. Her thin slate colored bangs falling on her fair colored forehead, she jerked a bit in her sleep and his smile only widened. Glancing past his sleeping infant daughter he looked up and his gold eyes met crimson, seeing the thin smile across his lover's lips as he too had been watching their daughter sleep peacefully between them.
"Hey." Ray whispered out quietly.
"Hey kitten." Kai answered back, in the same low tone.
"I'm going to put her in her room, be back in a second." Ray said as he gently pulled his daughter into his arms, cradling her back and neck in the fold of his arms.
Kai watched him leave quietly, sitting up against the headboard of his bed. His mind was a bit foggy, the dream he had was the only thing that stuck out in his mind without the haze. Kain had been there, he was doing fine and that he only came to tell them that. Even if it was just a dream, Kai had a feeling that it was slightly more, and he was content in knowing that Kain was fine.
The memories he had being with Tala weren't there, all he could remember was that during Ray's pregnancy they had come closer than ever before. They leaned on each other for support, and Ray handled his own pains along with Kai's best he could, but their daughter was still born four weeks premature. After they had brought her home, things were still going good for them and he was thankful for that.
Ray stepped back into the room, his arms empty as he had placed Kaira in her nursery across the hall. Leaving both doors slightly cracked open in case she needed them, he stopped by the doorway and smiled down at his lover who beckoned him back to the bed. Ray happily obliged, crawling over and sitting on Kai's waist and their lips met.
"Merry Christmas." Ray whispered out, having slightly pulled back till their mouths were only a few inches apart.
"Merry Christmas kitten." Kai smirked back, pulling his lover back down to him where their lips met again in a more passionate induced kiss.

Ray purred, his body trembling as he let his hands roam up under Kai's shirt, tracing his fingers over Kai's abs and chest. Kai shuddered at the touch, pulling Ray closer to him and then rolling the other on his back. Ray giggled like a school girl and then moaned out as Kai's lips trailed down his chin and jaw, nipping the tan skin gently along his neck and collar bone. Neither could remember the last time they had sex, since Ray had been on bed-rest and unable to. Even through Kaira's four months of life, they hadn't been this close in a long time.
Ray's grip tightened on the back of Kai's hair while his claws scratched Kai's chest under his shirt, his body flexed and tensed under Kai's lips and tongue that darted out every now and then to take in the taste of Ray's skin. Sitting back on the younger man's waist Kai pulled apart Ray's button-down shirt, his eyes dancing over his lover's tan and equally toned chest. The incision from his C-sections near his hips was noticeable and he bent down and kissed it gently, as if secretly thanking him for the children he had been given. Ray arched his hips into Kai's mouth, answering his silent 'thank you' with his own silent 'you're welcome' as he purred and moaned.
Kai's fingers hooked into the rim of Ray's jeans as he ran his tongue along his lower stomach, teasing his lover as he wanted to wait this out as long as he could. Ray bucked his hips again, writhing under Kai's touch a bit too excitedly.
"Be patient." Kai smirked, glancing up to meet Ray's gaze over his rising and falling chest.
"Ass." Ray hissed but held still, allowing Kai to torture him how he saw fit.
Kai's smirk grew as he went back to sucking on Ray's hip bone, having slightly pulled the hem of his jeans down just enough to allow access to his hips. The pressure in both of their groins was already coming in ten-fold, wiggling his hips a bit to relieve some of the pressure, Ray stopped when Kai's hand came down and held him still.
"What'd I say kitten?" Kai smirked, having finished the hickey on Ray's hip as he pulled himself across Ray's body.
"You're not being fair." Ray pouted, narrowing his eyes.
"But this is so much more fun, don't you think?" Kai asked and without Ray seeing had pulled his arm back between them, gripping Ray's hardness through his jeans.
"K… Kai!" Ray bit out, his back arching as he tried to pick up more friction against his lover's hand.
"Say it again." Kai huffed into Ray's ear as he brought his mouth against the space of his earlobe and neck, his breath hot against Ray's already flustered skin.
Pressing down and squeezing his lover's hard-on once more, getting another moan and purr as he sucked on the space of Ray's neck, biting down gently and then licking the red spot that appeared. Ray bit his bottom lip, trying to stifle the moans that wanted to escape. He stopped trying to gain the friction he desperately wanted, just to tease his lover back the way he was being teased. Upon not receiving a response Kai gripped harder and bit down harder at the same time, causing Ray to gasp out and his hips to rise to meet the hold on him.
"Kai!" He blurt out between a moan, quickly biting his lip to keep his words to himself.
"Good kitten." Kai smirked, kissing the angry mark he left on his lover's neck.
Drawing his hand away from Ray's hardness he worked on undoing the jeans that kept his lover trapped and tugged them down past his knees, once he was free he took him back into his hold and began his slow work on teasing and pleasing his lover. Ray kept as still as he could, not wanting to disrupt the menstruation's Kai was working against him. Only giving him a small moan or grunt as he kept biting his lower lip, he closed his eyes tight and fell back into the ecstasy of it all. Laying on his side next to his lover where he had access to every part of Ray's body, Kai leant back over and took Ray's left nipple in his mouth. Gently nipping on it and rolling it between his teeth, blowing cold air against it just to watch Ray's body shake uncontrollably.
Ray laid there lost in the daze created by his love and lust, just about over the edge as Kai's grip got a bit harder and he jerked on him more roughly. Kai could feel the pressure building up in his lovers organ, but couldn't stop and Ray's seed exploded out of him as he cried out Kai's name once more. Taking in sharp breaths of air to refill his lungs, Ray's body shook as Kai didn't stop the movements of his hands and Ray's only response was to press his head back further into the bed and bite down on his lip harder to stifle the louder moans that wanted to escape.
With his hand and fingers coated in Ray's essence Kai released his hold on Ray's member, trailing his fingers to his entrance and gently and slowly prodded until one finger slipped inside. Immediately Ray's muscles protested, and he groaned out and will himself to relax at the familiar feeling. Crooking his one finger inside of Ray, Kai pulled and pushed a few times before slipping another cum covered finger inside his still panting lover.
"Mmmm, d… Don't stop!" Ray grunted out, pushing back against Kai's fingers as they picked up speed nearly brushing his spot.
"Be patient…" Kai whispered out, watching every muscle tense and relax with each pant from his lover, having sat himself next to Ray just so he could watch the way his lover reacted to him.
Widening Ray's entrance, twisting his fingers till he felt he couldn't take it anymore, with his own straining erection, Kai pulled his fingers out roughly. Ray hissed from the empty feeling he now had, his eyes shot open and he glared at Kai who just smirked back. Leaning back over to place a chaste kiss on the corner of his lips, as he pulled on the sides of Ray's shirt, pulling him up into a sitting position. Pressing their lips back together, Kai's hands roamed Ray's broad shoulders slipping the fabric that was already starting to fall off, move down his tan arms until Ray had to slip his arms out of his shirt completely.
With his torso now completely bare Kai left a wet trail of kisses down Ray's neck to his collar bone and shoulders, biting the edge of his shoulder where the more prominent muscle stuck out and enjoyed the way it flexed under his attack. Kicking his legs free from his pants, Ray pinched Kai's own arm that was holding him up beside him.
"Ow, what was that for?" Kai asked smirking, feigning a hurt look.
"You need to hurry this up, before Kaira wakes up." Ray pouted.
"If you keep moaning like that, she'll wake up regardless." Kai's smirk grew wider, pushing Ray back down onto his back and starting to undo his own button-down shirt.
Ray watched him carefully, loving the way Kai stripped down to nothing before him. The way his arms flexed and his back tensed as he pulled his pants off, and crawling back onto the bed between Ray's legs that he had already parted for him. Kissing Ray's legs as he settled back between them, Kai's hands snuck around Ray's upper thighs and pulled him down towards him roughly. Sitting back he placed himself at Ray's entrance, having prepared himself the second his pants had hit the floor. Ray licked his lips and watched with hungry eyes as Kai slid inside him, loving the way Kai's face softened as he let out a low groan when Ray intentionally clamped his muscles around him.
Kai's nails dug into Ray's hips as he rocked against him before pulling back out all the way and back in one fluid motion, Ray's back arched and he balled the sheets into his fits beside him as he let out a long moan. Following the same motions Kai went back out and in, getting the same response each time till he pulled Ray even closer and picked up speed against him. His hands no longer on Ray's hips but around his lower back, keeping him slightly lifted off the bed as he brought his hips crashing down into Ray's, eliciting a louder moan from his lover whose muscles clamped down around him again tighter.
"Fuck!" Kai hissed and paused for a second, trying to regain his bearings before he finished too quickly, wanting to draw this out as long as he physically could.
"Move!" Ray demanded, trying to push back against Kai but was held still by nails digging into his soft tan flesh.
An idea clicked into Kai's head and he pulled out completely, getting an angry stare in return. Ignoring the look he was receiving he pulled on Ray's wrists and laid back, pulling the younger man on top of him. Realizing what Kai was doing Ray waisted no time in straddling his lover's hips, easing himself back down on Kai's member. As Ray pushed himself all the way down Kai's shaft, he threw his head back as another moan passed his lips. Kai's own back arched, his hands coming down on Ray's thighs and clenching the skin as his head pressed down into the mattress of the bed beneath him.
Pausing every now and then as he drove himself down on Kai repeatedly, Ray's claws dug into the sheets by Kai's head. His panting coming back ten-fold and his body shook, having his own erection come back that Kai was now working on with one hand once again. Trying to match every pull and push on his erection with the same movements of him riding on top of his lover, Ray was just about over the edge again.
Before he could, he sat back a bit, changing the angle in which Kai was positioned inside him and took the hand Kai was using against him. Slowly taking two of Kai's fingers into his mouth, biting and sucking, licking between them and rolling his tongue along the slim digits. All the while watching Kai's facial expressions, his mouth opening and closing sometimes biting his lip to keep his moans to a bare minimum. Ray was enjoying watching the way Kai reacted to his teasing, giving him payback for what he had done earlier to him as he stopped riding Kai and focused on the fingers in his mouth.
"Fuck, Ray!" Kai bit out, throwing his head back once more and forcing his fingers out of Ray's mouth and hold.
"That's what you get for teasing me." Ray smirked, leaning across Kai's body to kiss him.
With their lips locked once more Ray dug his hips down, rocking in slower movements against Kai as he too wanted to draw this out as long as possible. Slightly pulling their lips apart to breathe, Ray smirked and pulled back on Kai's erection and slammed himself back down.
"Say it again." He taunted, just like Kai had done to him.
Kai grunted something out, but it wasn't his name and he pouted while digging his hips back down with more force than before, having to bite his lip to keep himself from moaning out Kai's name. Still not receiving the words he wanted to hear, Ray bit down on Kai's neck and sucked the already bruising pale skin as he rocked his hips in circular movements. Once again Kai's only response was to grunt and groan, not saying a word.
Trying to think of a way to get Kai to say his name again, Ray pulled off of Kai completely and trailed his tongue along the pale skin of his lover's chest and stomach, nipping at different spots. Quickly he pulled the condom off and tossed it off the side of the bed, and then took Kai into his mouth. Immediately Kai's back arched again, and his mouth parted but nothing escaped his lips, Ray looked up and watched as he sucked and nipped at his lover's erection in his mouth.
Pulling away to lick at the tip and run his tongue along the slit slowly and roughly at the same time, Kai's body shook, and his hands found their way into Ray's hair and pulled back his bangs and any other loose strands that got in the way of watching himself getting sucked dry. Gold and crimson locked in a silent argument that was clouded by lust, driving his mouth down the rest of Kai's length before he gagged, Ray opened his throat wider and took every inch into his mouth.
"Ray!" Kai called out, his nails digging into Ray's scalp as his entire body shook and his jaw clenched the second the words passed his lips.
Slowly pulling his mouth away, lapping up the pre-cum that escaped Kai, Ray licked his lips and smiled proudly at his panting lover. Having been victorious on his mission, he pulled back thinking of what else there was he wanted done to him, and he rolled over onto his hands and knees.
Regaining his normal breathing pattern Kai chanced a look past him and smirked, seeing Ray's ass before him and he pushed himself off his back and positioned himself behind Ray. Moving the hair that had spilled down Ray's back, taking it in one hand while the other parted Ray's legs a bit further before sliding himself back in.
"Shit!" Ray hissed out, gripping the sheets under him as Kai penetrated him as far as he could go.
Without wasting any time to stop or fill his lungs back with air, Kai pulled out and slammed himself back inside of Ray, his pre-cum becoming the lubrication Ray needed to ease the bit of pain he was feeling. After a few more thrusts Ray's back side wasn't nearly on fire as it had been before, and he moaned out, his arms giving out on him as he laid his upper half into the mattress as Kai kept his lower half in the air against him.
The bed creaked and protested as Kai got lost in the moment, finishing off with as much force and speed he could conjure up. Their skin smacking and resonating amongst the moans and grunts that erupted past their lips, until they both were driven over the edge. Even though Ray wanted to fully collapse onto the bed Kai held his hips against him, not wanting to pull out just yet as he tried to still his erratic breathing. Ray's legs began to shake under him, and he whimpered a bit until Kai pulled out, a hiss escaping his lips as he released his grip on Ray's waist. Ray fell onto the bed completely, still unable to breathe properly as Kai rested his body down on top of his. Their sweat slicked bodies did nothing to cool the heat they were radiating, nor did it do anything to calm down the after effects of their orgasms.
Gently Kai took Ray's chin in his hand and tilted his head back, careful not to put a strain on the younger man's neck, kissing him quickly on the lips before letting him go. Ray smiled briefly back as they parted and laid his head back down in his arms he had pulled under himself, his breathing coming in more normally now as his racing heart slowed a bit more.
End Lemon
He didn't move as he could feel Kai's body leave his, and groaned in protest but knew his legs wouldn't work so he didn't bother to try and follow Kai into the shower. Instead he closed his eyes, listening to the sounds of the shower turning on and picturing Kai's wet body under the spray. Just as he was about asleep a shrill cry came from the nursery snapping him out of his trance, and he groaned
Kain's POV/ June 12th- Three Years Later
Even if my nightmares weren't stopping, even if the tug to cross the line of killing someone wasn't going away I still persisted. I had made a silent vow to never cross that line, I would rather have been castrated than kill someone; innocent or not. Brooklyn did his thing, following his tug at least once or twice a month in order to keep his darkness in check. It was a bit unnerving to watch him come home with that same calm and happy expression after knowing what he had just done, but in the end, I honestly didn't care. I was just glad to have him back, I needed him and soon I found out that he needed me; what a fool I was.
Over the months and years that I had been living with him my feelings grew, it was no longer just because of our own demons, but that I truly wanted him. He had made good on his vow not to take me until I was eighteen, the waiting had been killing me with each stolen kiss or grope we would place on the other. I trained harder, as he made sure to run me ragged so when the time came we wouldn't hurt each other; that was the last thing we wanted to do.
Our first night together, where we had let our emotions explode was amazing. He was careful and slow with me, as I had never had sex before in my life, and I had no idea a man much older than me could handle me so delicately. It was like he was afraid of hurting me, but all I wanted was to feel him more and soon he listened to my pleas. It wasn't just once that night when I turned eighteen, it was several times and each time it was more passionate and hot. One time it became too hot, and we did end up burning each other and had to call it a night.
During the three years of training harder, mastering my powers better and keeping the other me in check. I visited my parents often, happy to see that their lives were going the way I had wanted it to. Kai's business was still flourishing, Ray was in college to become a chef and Kaira was growing so fast. As she got older she never saw me anymore, every now and then she would glance my way, but it was never like before where I thought she had actually seen me.
Like me, she was the perfect mix of our parents. Her skin tone was a mixture of our fathers, where mine reflected Kai's more, and she had both their eye color. As she got older, and her eyes became more defined you could tell she had gotten Kai's shape. Her hair was the same slate as Kai's in the front, with raven in the back in his two-tone fashion.
She learned to walk when she was one, a bit slower than I had been walking, but I was there to watch her take her first steps and my heart filled with such pride and joy as I watched her walk over to Kai. He had never looked prouder that day, and it only made me glad to see that they were all truly happy. I did feel a pain in me, not being there with them hurt every time I stopped by. Their memories were altered, but they still knew I existed, so I wasn't completely forgotten.
Sometimes dad would still cry at night, wishing I was home with them and Kai would console him and promise him that I'd come back soon enough. I wanted to, day and night I had to fight with myself not to go back. I couldn't, not yet, not with the tug still pulling me and more so than it ever had before because I still would not cross that line. Brooklyn never pressed the issue, he told me I still wasn't ready to kill anyone even though the other me scoffed at him. He believed I could, that we were ready, and his blood lust was only getting stronger.
Over the past three years I hardly left Brooklyn's world, I was too afraid to leave it for the real world and its problems. Fearing that if I did leave anything could happen, and so I forced myself to stay here and train. The powers I unlocked and could control were like out of a work of fiction, I could move things with my mind. My teleportation abilities were getting better where the clouds of smoke didn't even appear with me. It was always a rush to use some kind of power, but the more I relied on them the more I could feel myself slipping.
I didn't want to slip though, I had made such progress to avoid ever slipping, but it was only a matter of time. I allowed Brooklyn to take me with him as his tug commanded him on my birthday of all days, I was turning nineteen, and my tug was becoming uncontrollable. I thought I would be fine, with Brooklyn beside me, but I was wrong. The rush I felt, the warmness it caused within my body was too good to have passed up. It felt like I had been missing something all my life, and after getting just a taste of it I didn't want to ever NOT have it.
I don't know who the man was, nor what his crime was, to me it didn't matter though. Not when I took his life, not when I watched the light in his eyes die out as I allowed the other me to take over. There was so much blood, so much darkness and warmth; I was on fire. Even though the real me watched in the recess of my mind, I was cheering and congratulating myself for what I had done.
"We need another." The other me said, blood dripping down my claws and smeared across my face and neck.
"One is enough for the night." Brooklyn responded, his eyes almost looked like mine as his pupils were slit into a finer point at the center of his eyes. He had fangs of his own, but they were smaller and sharper and only came out when he let his darkness take over.
"No! We need another one, now!" The other me growled out to him as we took a threatening step towards him, though I knew we would never hurt him.
"No, we should go home now." He said calmly, his demonic persona leaving him as his face returned to normal.
"Besides." He stepped closer causing the other me to take a step back, and he froze as Brooklyn's hand cupped our cheek in a soothing manner, bringing me back into my body.
"I have other plans." He smiled to me and pressed his lips against mine.
When he pulled away all I could do was nod to him, a stupid grin plastered on my face as my vision returned to normal, my pupils dilating. He reached over and took my hands in his, a different warmth engulfed us, and he took us home. Leaving the man we had murdered behind his home, dismembered and unrecognizable.
Before he had a chance to pull his hands away, appearing in his room of his mansion, I pulled him back against me. I was now about as tall as him and my chin could rest on his shoulder if I wanted it to, but now all I wanted to do was kiss him. He didn't protest and pulled me just as close, our lips meeting and the spark and fire that always appeared did at the contact.
Purring and already pressing my hips into his I pushed him back against the wall that was behind him, he walked back into it just as I had silently commanded. Normally he was the dominate one in our 'relationship', sometimes that didn't bother me, but for tonight it was my turn.
Normal POV/Lemon Starts
As Brooklyn's back rested against the wall Kain had pressed him into, his grip on the younger man tightened around his slim hips, making sure to pull and grind their growing erections together through their pants. Kain purred and pressed his tongue into Brooklyn's mouth who had happily parted his lips for his 'lover,' loving the way Kain took control over the situation. Knowing that his darkness hadn't been completely satiated and this was the best distraction he could offer the younger man, and he smirked as Kain's hands gripped his shirt roughly and tugged it off.
"We have all night." Brooklyn whispered into Kain's ear, having to bend down slightly to reach before taking his earlobe into his mouth.
"I need you now though." Kain moaned out, his hands and claws scratching across Brooklyn's torso as the fire seared from under his touch.
"You'll have me." Brooklyn whispered again, pulling Kain's hips back against his as they rubbed against each other again.
"Now!" Kain hissed out, his hands fumbling with Brooklyn's belt and then the button and zipper of his pants.
Taking that as his cue to turn the tides over, Brooklyn grabbed Kain's legs and picked him off his feet. Carrying him to the bed as he held his legs around his waist, making sure to kiss and nip at Kain's neck that he had tilted for him. Falling down on the bed, Brooklyn over Kain's body, he kicked off his pants and started to undress Kain. Kain's black tank top was the first to come off, over his head, revealing his toned pale skin, his nipple piercing almost glowing from the sweat that had formed on his chest.
Resting back on his elbows on the bed, Kain watched as Brooklyn eyed his body like a hungry predator until he leaned forward and licked the piercing. Kain's right hand came around and held the back of Brooklyn's head, his claws digging into the back of his head as his fingers tangled in the orange-red hair. Using his right arm for support beside him, Brooklyn's left hand traced down Kain's chest igniting the skin with his own fiery touches, leaving intricate burn marks on the pale flesh till he reached the hem of Kain's jeans.
Biting harshly onto Kain's nipple, Brooklyn drew a bit of blood and licked it up before teasing the ends of the bar that stuck through his nipple. Kain threw his head back in a drawn-out purr/ moan, his body tensing and flexing out under the touch and burns he was receiving, even though they didn't actually hurt him. Brooklyn's fingers traced around the hem of Kain's jeans, leaving a burn mark in his path until he could no longer hold back.
In a swift movement, having pulled his mouth away from Kain's chest, leaving him panting for air. He undid the button and zipper, pulling the pants and boxers down in one tug and tossing them off the bed. Leaving him fully exposed, even with the cold air in the room neither of them felt it and it did nothing to calm the burning they felt on their skin where the other had touched and left marks.
Kain hissed as Brooklyn took him into his mouth, sucking roughly as he let his teeth grate against his skin. Using one hand to draw more burn patterns on the inside of Kain's thigh, while the other slipped three fingers in his entrance without warning or preparation. Kain's body tensed and he let out a cry of pain, slowly loosing himself into the feeling as he fell on his back taking in sharp breathes of air.
The hunger for the other not yet satisfied, Brooklyn slipped in another finger as he took Kain all the way into his mouth. Forcing his throat to open more and grate his teeth, drawing blood, as he slowly pulled back against him. Another hiss passed Kain's lips before he bit down into his bottom lip, writhing under him until he exploded out.
Pulling away with his mouth still filled, Brooklyn lent back over Kain's body and pressed his lips against his, forcing him to take his own essence in his mouth as their tongues and saliva mixed with it. Kain purred again and pulled Brooklyn against him tighter, their chests rubbing and burning the other more until they had to pull apart.
Coating himself in a thick lather of lube, Brooklyn pulled Kain's back side towards him, having rolled the younger male onto his stomach and keeping his lower half in the air before pressing himself in fully. Kain's muscles clamped down tight, screaming Brooklyn's name as he became lost in the motions. One thrust followed with a second and third, until he lost count and gripped Kain's hips tighter, steam rising from the heat and leaving a full hand print on the pale skin.
Kain closed his eyes tightly, moaning and grunting with each hard thrust into him as he gripped the sheets below him. Brooklyn's own long and low moan passed his lips as he came, his seed spilling out of Kain and down the inside of his thighs as he let him fully fall onto the bed. Kain panted, trying to still his breathing as he rolled onto his back, being greeted with a sweet and passionate kiss on his lips.
End Lemon
"Let me heal you now." Brooklyn whispered as he pulled away, sitting over Kain's body.
"No, leave them for now." Kain breathed out, grabbing Brooklyn's wrist in order to stop him.
Brooklyn only nodded as he laid himself down next to Kain's body, wrapping an arm across his chest and pulling him into an embrace as they both fell asleep. Kain purring contently against Brooklyn, the burning in his stomach on his skin fading until it was just a dull ache.
Okay, so that was a lot of sex, for those who don't like that sort of thing, why are you here to begin with? Those who have been rooting for Brooklyn and Kain to get together, you're welcome.
Side note, I drew up Kaira a bit older for those who may want to check it out. Go to Deviantart and search Sketchesz.
