“We shouldn’t,” Acatl murmured, but it was a token protest and they both knew it. They’d come too far to stop now even if they wanted to.
Teomitl kissed him again, sweet and hungry. When he drew back, his mouth was red and wet as a feeding jaguar’s. “Does that mean you don’t want it?” It sounded sincere, for all that his hands were slipping under the waistband of Acatl’s loincloth and there was a thigh pressed rather insistently between his legs.
I shouldn’t want this, he thought. We both have so many other responsibilities, other duties. You will be my Emperor. But you are the sun of my life, and even though I burn, I throw myself into the fire willingly.
He rolled them both over, pressing Teomitl back down on the mat, and lowered his mouth to his lover’s throat. “Let me show you what I want,” he breathed, and bit sharply enough to sting.

There was no hesitation after that.
