Eric smirked back at Bastian as he unbuttoned the cuffs at his wrists and then pushed the shirt back off of his lover's shoulder and down his arms, tossing the garment to the floor when he'd finished removing it. He gently pushed Bastian's knees apart and moved to kneel between the other vampire's thighs, leaning in to kiss and lick his way down Bastian's chest and abdomen, his tongue tracing the lines of muscle. He dipped his cool tongue into Bastian's navel and then sat back for a moment to undo his lover's belt and pants.
