Blake could hear the self-satisfaction in Jeremy’s words and barely managed to nod. His body hummed with unaccustomed fire, and his heart pounded. “Mmm, yeah.” He watched as Jeremy got condoms and a tube of lubricant from the table by his bed. Nervous again, he shivered.
“What’s wrong?” Jeremy lay over him, his hard dick leaking on Blake’s stomach. “Your face…all of a sudden. Did you change your mind?”
The concern in Jeremy’s voice and eyes gave Blake the strength to tell the truth. “I don’t want to disappoint you.”
“You couldn’t.” Jeremy kissed him, touching his thighs. “I want you so much. Do you want me?”
A fire erupted in his blood, and he cried out, “God, yes.”
Jeremy breathed heavy in his ear. “Wanna fuck you so hard. Keep you here all night with me.”
His tongue was everywhere, tracing lines of wet heat down Blake’s body, then back to licking Blake’s dick, which had sprung back to semi-hardness.
“Me too. Fuck me. Come on.” Blake urged Jeremy, hungry for him in a way he’d never been before. He spread his legs and watched Jeremy roll on the condom, then pour lube over his sheathed dick. Blake began to stroke himself.
Jeremy nudged into his hole, and Blake breathed and relaxed, anxious to have that thickness inside him.
“Do it already.” Eagerness pitched his voice higher, and he opened his legs wider.
A dark intensity settled over Jeremy’s handsome face, and he gritted his teeth as he sank inside. Blake tilted his hips and hooked his legs behind the small of Jeremy’s back to press him close.
“Harder.”
A flare of excitement mingled with lust lit Jeremy’s face. “Want to be careful.”
“No.” Blake needed that hardness pushing into him. It made him come alive. “I want it.” He grabbed Jeremy’s hip.
“Ahh.” Jeremy thrust deep, then pulled almost all the way out, only to return inside and continue the punishing rhythm. The bed banged against the wall, and for a moment Blake wondered if the neighbors heard them; then he blew apart with electricity and became lost inside himself, a willing victim to Jeremy’s absolute control.
Strong hands gripped his waist, and Blake knew Jeremy was close; his pace picked up, and his breathing grew short and ragged. There was something so beautiful and primitive about a man about to orgasm, and Blake couldn’t tear himself away from staring at Jeremy as he came.
Sweat dripped from his face to his broad chest; his muscles bulged and flexed as he thrust over and over, and his eyes blazed fire, even in the semidark.
“Oh fuck, yeah.” He gave one last plunge, then collapsed, shaking and wet on top of Blake, who wrapped his arms around Jeremy and held him tight, lips pressed to his hot skin, tasting the tang of his salt.
“Gimme a few to recover. Then we can take a shower. You okay?”
He nodded against Jeremy’s shoulder.
Apparently that wasn’t good enough for Jeremy. He pulled out and held Blake with a disarming, direct stare. “You sure? You’re awful quiet.”
“Yeah, I’m great. You’re amazing.” Inadequate words, but they were all his fuzzy brain could come up with.
Jeremy disposed of the condom, then rolled back over and to Blake’s surprise, pulled him into his arms.
“I didn’t think you were a cuddler.”
“I fucking love cuddling. So you’re staying right here and not leaving tonight, right?”
Warm and drowsy and feeling loved for the first time, Blake snuggled into Jeremy’s chest. “Yeah, I’m staying.”
Chapter Five
They’d been sleepingtogether for several weeks, and Blake stayed the whole weekend this time like he had after Thanksgiving. Jeremy decided he liked having someone in his home and in his bed. Much as he hated leaving Blake, Jeremy had to get to Hard Core for a six thirty a.m. personal-training session. With Christmas looming and New Year’s not far behind, more people were signing up—as the number one resolution was always to lose weight or get more fit. Much as Jeremy loved the business, he’d rather be home, under the covers with his boyfriend.
“I’ll be back as soon as I can and give you a proper wake-up.”
The sleepy smile he received from Blake stayed with him the whole train ride to the gym. Once finished with his client, he’d taken a seat at his desk to check through some emails before returning home, when his phone rang. Startled, Jeremy wondered who the hell was calling him so early. At the flash of the name on the phone screen his stomach tensed, but he picked it up anyway.
