“Sit. You look like shit.” I was inviting a man to sit in his ownchair in his own house.
He gripped the edge of the table and muttered, “If you only knew.”
“Candrin.” I sat opposite him. “That’s me.”
“Huston.”
“Ahhh.” The microwave dinged again and I leaped up. “I was just about to eat. You can share my dinner.”
Huston pushed his chair back and it screeched over the wooden floor. “I couldn’t. Sorry.” He raced out the front door and dashed past the kitchen window out back before I lost sight of him.
I collapsed in my chair. After losing both my parents, I’d assumed that last Friday was the worst day in my life. And the best because I met Tanner. But now, seven days later, his brother appeared and all I could think of was I wanted to see his cock. Maybe suck on it.
The voice in my head urged me to stop. With my dinner forgotten, I tore up to my room and stuffed my belongings into the suitcase. Tanner would wonder where I’d disappeared to but hurting him by vanishing was preferable to falling for his brother right in front of him. And I still had the same feelings for Tanner as I did before meeting Huston.
Glancing around the room, I figured I had everything. Shit, I didn’t have a car, only a motorbike that I refused to ride. If I got a rideshare to Anders’ garage and begged him to meet me there, I’d take the car, sleep in it and figure out my next move in the morning.
But as I reached the door of my room, Huston barred my way.
“Going somewhere?”

HUSTON
That was unexpected
The second I walked in the door, my bear perked up. The place smelled amazing. I couldn’t quite pinpoint where it was coming from but I needed to get to it. Maybe I was just hungry, but my nose led me directly to the kitchen.
As I got closer, I heard some things moving in there. Silly me, I thought it was my brother digging in the fridge for food. Not in a million years would I have guessed that I was going to walk around the corner to find the sexiest man I’d ever laid eyes on standing there with his dick in his hand.
And what a dick it was. One deep breath and I knew without a doubt the scent that had lured me there belonged to the stranger. Delicious smelling and with a cock made for sucking—my knees nearly caved. I had to be dreaming. No one walked into something that glorious.
My initial reaction was to drop to my knees and worship his cock with my tongue. I wanted to swirl it around the tip, to take him in as far as I could and swallow him as I teased his balls. And then, just as he was about to come, I would bend him over and pay attention to his poor neglected hole.
Gods, I was a pervert. Lusting on this stranger with full on porn reels in my head. I blamed it on my job. Not that librarians watched porn but we knew all of the best books and I read them all. It normally wasn’t a problem. The books were a great escape and fun way to pass the time. Little did I realize how creative it made me. I barely got one knotty thought out of my mind when another arrived.
But he wasn’t naked for me. He didn’t even know me. And that meant he wasn’t mine and I shouldn’tbe thinking of him like this.
Mine.
Claim.
Ours.
And fucking great. I now had my bear on board with ravishing this stranger who had given us no indication he was even interested in us. I mean aside from his dick in his hand, which given he put it away, wasn’t for us.
No. We can’t claim him. He’s not ours.I chided my bear and he didn’t care, pushing at me to let him out and mark this man as our own.
I felt awful watching Candrin’s face fall as I excused myself. Not that excusing myself was the best descriptor. I needed to get out of there before my bear did something stupid like claim the human. That was not something you could just up and do to someone even if they did understand what it was and humans did not.
My human side ran until I was no longer in view of the house, shed my clothing, and called forth my bear. He roared out of me and he was pissed. Beyond pissed. He wanted to rush right back to Candrin and that wasn’t happening.
If I need to put you back and press you so far down you won’t know what time of day it is, I will. We are not going back there. Run it off!
Thank gods he believed my threat, which as well he should have. Because I would've followed through. You can’t expose yourself to humans. That was a recipe for disaster and depending on what happened next, potentially deadly. No good could come of it. None.
My bear took off and ran. And when he was done running, he climbed a tree because—why not. He had always loved trees, far more than my brothers. They used to tease me and say that it was because I liked to experience things from afar.
