[ The reality is, he finds that he likes that Fenris is there watching. That he's sharing this thing they're doing together, intimate and personal. It wouldn't feel the same without Fenris here. Not any more.
What a strange idea. Tav had shared their bed with others, but it had never felt this equal. Like the three of them are this group that belonged together.
He tries not to think of it too much as he licks Xenk's arm clean, ensuring he gets every precious drop of blood. Xenk's skin heals quickly enough but that's just as well with what Xenk asks. He means he can draw himself away from his arm and find his way to his neck.
Astarion releases his arm and then moves to kiss his way along Xenk's neck. When he finds the perfect spot he says softly against his skin (but loud enough for Fenris to hear, of course): ]
Don't let Tyr hear you saying such things. That sounds nearly sacrilegious, my Light.
[ Teasing of course, but he can't help himself. Not that he gives Xenk much time to respond, digging in with his fangs right after he says it. ]
