“Umm, is everything okay?” Niko asked as they stopped behind him.
“You’re really scary, you know that?” Blade said to the little girl standing in front of him, wearing a blood-soaked dress and pigtails. A Raggedy Ann doll dangled from her hand as she stoodnext to her father, who was also wearing a “murder daddy” clown suit.
The little girl shrugged.
“Yes, I know. But I’m also really fun to play hide-and-seek with.”
Blade and Ace exchanged looks. Slowly, Ace slid his arm through his fiancé’s and wrapped himself around him.
“Honey, I think it’s time for you to go to bed,” the creepy father said, looking down at his daughter.
“Oh? Please? Just one game, Daddy?” the little girl asked. Her pleading eyes and murderous smile would be the thing of Reid’s nightmares for years to come.
“Ummm, we’re actually kind of tired ourselves, sweet pea,” Ace began, appearing to use his sweetest, calmest voice so as not to enrage the creepy little murder child. “I think we’re going to go to bed ourselves.”
“And lock the fucking doors behind us,” Blade said under his breath as they turned and hurried back to their room.
Reid swallowed hard when the little girl turned her attention to him.
“Umm, I’m tired too,” he rushed, grabbing the room key from Niko and pushing open the door quickly. He reached out and grabbed Niko’s arm, yanking him into the room before slamming the door closed behind them.
Could this night get any creepier?
Reid pitied all those currently staying at the farm. Tomorrow night was going to be a… nightmare for them all.

NIKOLAI
Using his hand, Niko wiped the condensation off the mirror, then stood up straight to check out his reflection.
His body was solid. Nice muscular arms that looked like they should be on display in some men’s magazine, making all other men jealous. He couldn’t count the number of times women… as well as men, complimented him on his sizeable arms.
Niko worked hard in the gym, pumping iron four to five times a week. Most days, he worked out with Marcus and the boys, but since Reid had been visiting, he’d been too preoccupied to hit the gym.
Tightening the towel around his waist, he opened the bathroom door and stepped into their bedroom.
“Do you think my arms have gotten smaller?”
Reid looked up from the magazine he had been reading and stared at him with a confused look on his face.
“Smaller, compared to what?”
“Compared to when I ran into you in LA,” Niko clarified. He raised his right arm and flexed it.
A crooked smile spread across the right side of Reid’s face. It was his “I’m about to say something sarcastic” look.
“Well, I wasn’t going to say anything to you ’cause I know you’re kind of sensitive and all. But you’ve been kind of losing muscle and getting a fatter ass.”
Niko’s mouth dropped open as he turned to glare at his butt.
From behind him, he heard Reid chuckle.
That little…
Niko charged from the bathroom and jumped onto the bed like he was about to do a cannonball into a pool full of water. He landed with his legs straddling Reid’s thighs.
Reid let out a screech as Niko’s towel flew open and his cock flopped out onto Reid’s belly.
