He slammed out of the room, leaving the three of them staring at each other.
Armi cleared his throat. “Well…that was…interesting. I guess I’ll be looking for a new legal counsel for the team. If you have any suggestions, let me know, and I’ll put out a call to someheadhunters. I would think Jacob has up-and-coming people on the team to step into his shoes.”
“Don’t let him burst your bubble, kid,” Troy said with more kindness than Armi had ever heard. “I know it’s been a rough road with your father, and none of us really helped you or showed much faith in your ability to take over the team. I personally wanna apologize for that. I was wrong, and I’m sorry. But I gotta say, you’ve come a long way these past couple of months, so whatever you’re doing, keep it up.”
Hoping his face didn’t reveal his wicked thoughts, he nodded. “I plan to. Trust me.”

“Keep it up? You’ve got to be kidding me,” Hayden gasped. “And you kept a straight face? You’re a better man than me.” Howling with laughter, Hayden fell on his bed. With no need to hide their relationship any longer, he and Hayden had left the office together and decided to have dinner at Armi’s house. He didn’t care where they stayed except for checking on his roses. They’d showered and were relaxing in bed before ordering dinner.
“I’ve been waiting for this moment all day.” Armi pounced on him, and they rolled together until they lay side by side, legs tangled. Joy and light radiated from Hayden’s face, and Armi loved seeing Hayden free and filled with peace. “I know it was rough for you, but I’m glad everything’s out in the open.”
Hayden’s eyes glimmered. “It was, and it’s a crushing weight off me. As humiliating as it was to have everyone in the office hear about my past, it’s nice not to be waiting, wondering if that was the day someone would find out.”
“I hate that you’ve lived like that for so long.” Armi touched his face and guided their lips together. “I only want you to know love from now on.” He pressed kisses to Hayden’s neck, then traced with his tongue the ink patterns on Hayden’s arms. “I want to give you that love.”
“You do. And I love reciprocating.” Hayden’s fingers skimmed his face as he continued to kiss and lick his body. Armi grasped his heavy cock and lapped at the slit, swirling his tongue over the wide crown. Their eyes met and Armi engulfed the full rigid length in his mouth.
“Ohh, yeah.” Hayden sighed. “Mmm. You’re so perfect.”
He pushed Hayden’s legs apart to kneel between them and took him deep to the back of his throat. The thick shaft filled and stretched his jaw, and he gasped for air but continued to rise and fall on it, the pleasure washing away the pain. His fingers dug into Hayden’s muscular thighs as he licked and sucked hard, his tongue sweeping against the pulsing vein of Hayden’s dick.
“Baby, oh fuck.” Hayden twisted the sheet in his fists, hips snapping as he keened and thrust deep. His entire body stiffened and he came, shooting down Armi’s throat, and Armi eagerly drank it all. “Give me a minute to recover.” Hayden cracked an eye open.
“Don’t worry.” Armi gripped his aching cock. “I can do it.”
A grunt burst from Hayden, and Armi found his legs over Hayden’s shoulders and Hayden’s mouth on his ass, biting and kissing the cheeks. “But I can do this.” He nudged his slick, wet tongue past the rim, working it in fully, and Armi cried out, his body springing to life as every nerve ending leaped into flames.
“Ahh, God, it’s too much.” But he lifted his ass higher, forcing Hayden’s tongue farther inside. It was so good. So damn good.
Hayden slipped his thumbs in to pull the tight opening wider. “You love this, don’t you? Love having your ass eaten. I love tasting you.” Hayden’s breath ghosted past Armi’s skin. “So delicious.”
No one had ever given him this kind of pleasure, and Armi thought he’d explode from the emotions flooding through him. It was so…primal. So wanton and filthy and yet incredibility hot and sexy. Armi gripped his cock and ran his hand up and down its throbbing length. But Hayden didn’t let up, and Armi was buffeted from all sides, his skin stretched to the limit.
“I’m gonna…gonna…” He writhed beneath Hayden’s wicked mouth.
“Let go, baby. I love you.” With his tongue buried up Armi’s ass, Hayden pressed a finger on the smooth skin behind his balls, and Armi saw stars.
“Oh, fuck.” He came, spraying across his chest and stomach. “Hayden.”
“I’m right here,” Hayden murmured, lips moving slowly against his sweat-drenched skin. “I’m not going anywhere.”
They lay cuddled together, Armi waiting for his heart to settle. “After that first time, I never thought I’d see you again. But to have you love me the way I am? I’m the luckiest man in the world.”
“Next to me, you mean.” Hayden’s fingers played in his hair.
“Mmm.” Armi wasn’t going to argue. Not when he lay limp and boneless, a puddle of contentment. “I didn’t get a chance to tell you the most interesting thing that happened out of that whole meeting.”
“Yeah? What?”
“Jacob quit.”
Hayden’s eyes flew open. “You’re kidding.”
“Nope. And Troy apologized for not being more supportive and letting my father—”
“Be a dick? A piece of shit?” Hayden grimaced. His thumb traced Armi’s cheek, and Armi leaned into his touch. He couldn’t imagine a time simply being close to Hayden wouldn’t turn his bones to water.
